Volume Two: The Iron Baron Chapter 224: The Journey to Vallombre (8)
"Oh? How shameless am I? No matter how shameless I am, I still don't sleep with my father's mistress? I can't do this kind of thing where father and son share the same sex." Balian told the embarrassing story of the father and son.
After interrogating the prisoner, he told many things about Viscount Raul and Sir Yellen, including that Sir Yellen was hooking up with his father's beautiful mistress, and that Viscount Raul was trying to get the wife of a rich farmer.
Beautiful wife, she doesn't hesitate to kill this rich peasant.
"After hearing that Balian knew such an obscure thing about their father and son, they both widened their eyes in surprise and did not say anything. They had just returned to a slightly normal expression, but they turned red again because of shame.
Viscount Raul became a little angry. He stared at Balian and asked: "How do you know these things? You... you... you are too terrible."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Balian tell him in a calm tone, "Because you have several of my men, and every move of your father and son is under my control, including this time.
Assassination!"
When Viscount Raul and his son heard this, they were stunned on the spot. Now they couldn't believe what Balian said. After all, the subordinates who followed them in the city had been loyal to them for at least three years. Balian three years ago was nothing more than
There was a soldier in the palace guard who did not know the father and son, so how could they arrange for someone to be with them?
However, if Balian hadn't arranged someone around them, how could he explain the private words and obscure things between their father and son? How could Balian, a person who had been in the North all year round, know about it.
The purpose of Balian's words is to make the father and son suspicious of the people around them. Even if they are temporarily unsuspicious, after this nail is driven in, they will always feel uncomfortable and will explode sooner or later.
After hearing this, Viscount Raul paused for a long time, and then smiled awkwardly, "Baron Balian, this is a joke. I believe you don't have the energy to place people next to us, father and son."
After saying this, he looked at Balian to see what his reaction would be, but Balian just smiled and didn't say anything.
Viscount Raul was a little confused at this time. He took a deep breath to calm down as much as possible, and then said to Balian: "Baron Balian, I can agree to the conditions you mentioned, but it will take time.
There are a lot of things here, I need to coordinate a little bit to get them all together, do you think it’s okay?”
"Of course, Viscount Raul, but in order to prevent you from regretting it after you go out, I need you to sign a contract with me. With this thing, if you regret it after going out, I can also ask the adults in the palace to help me get it.
What do you think of justice?" Balian looked into Viscount Raul's eyes and asked him.
The corner of Viscount Raul's mouth twitched and he responded: "The contract is unnecessary. You won't pay anyway. Besides, you know so much about our father and son. Do we dare to go back on our word? You definitely don't.
You will forgive us."
Balian shook his head after hearing this, "I don't believe you. Only if you sign this contract can I believe you. Otherwise, who knows what your father and son will do after they go out? After all, it is so vicious to sow discord between our brothers.
I can think of all the tricks."
Viscount Raul, after hearing Balian mention this matter again, immediately got a big headache. After talking for a while, he knew that Balian is a guy who has a hard time making terms with people who have offended him. Moreover, you
The more you talk to him about conditions, the more he lowers them and increases them, forcing you to accept them and making your losses even greater.
After Viscount Raul took the document, he read it carefully and made sure there were no big mistakes. After signing his name, he stamped his seal with his ring, and the contract officially came into effect.
The content of the contract is that before Advent, the caravan under the name of Viscount Raul, who has received 100,000 dinars from Balian, must deliver those supplies to Balian. If he cannot do so, Balian will be able to deliver them to Raul.
The Viscount claimed treble damages.
After signing the contract, Balian asked someone to bring two glasses of wine. Balian clinked glasses with Viscount Raul cordially, hugged his shoulders with a smile and said: "Brother Raul, thank you.
With your help, my Nolandenburg will definitely develop better."
Although Viscount Raul gritted his teeth with hatred, he did not dare to get angry at this time. He tried his best to force out a smile and said to Balian: "Brother Balian, you are welcome. We are all ministers of the monarch, and it is our duty to help you.
"
After awkward greetings for a while, Viscount Raul and Sir Yellen were about to leave with the attendant who was controlled by Bran. However, after Balian saw the attendant preparing to leave with the money box, he went over and took the money box away.
The attendant stopped him.
After Balian snatched the cash box, he said with a smile: "Brother Raul, you and your son came to visit me. If I don't accept this gift, I will be really letting down your kindness. After thinking about it, I still
Take it."
Hearing Balian's words, Viscount Raul and his son were so shocked that they didn't know how to answer the question. Bran and Eomer were also there winking and exchanging glances, which means that we adults are too shameless to put others to death.
After beating you up, you forced others to give you so many things, and now you have to take away several thousand dinars. It's really awesome.
"Yes... good... good!" Viscount Raul's expression was very strange. After he finished speaking these words, he turned around and left with the people, leaving Balian, who had gained a lot, to watch with satisfaction.
Clear sky.
After this incident passed, in the next two days, Balian first visited Earl David, received warm hospitality from him, and introduced many centrist nobles to him. They all met happily and talked a lot.
Balian was a young and promising knight, a legendary figure who had been promoted to four levels in a year. Everyone was very enthusiastic about him and gave him many gifts. These gifts followed the drunk Balian and was brought back by Eomer.
.
After sobering up the next morning, Balian packed up and went to visit the Count of Alpine Castle, the Minister of Security. After visiting this great patron, in the evening, the Earl of Alpine Castle took Balian to the house of the Count of Loire. Balian
I met the leader of my own camp, the deputy palace minister, and the military minister.
Although this nobleman in his fifties has gray hair on his temples, he is full of energy and has clear thoughts when talking. Although he speaks very gently, Balian still feels the coercive air of a person who has been in power for a long time.
Be clear.
However, this person who holds the power did not instruct Balian to do anything. He only talked about the family's shortcomings, which made Balian relax a lot and not have so much pressure. Otherwise, he could have been able to laugh carefully all the time.
People are exhausted to death. This chapter has been completed!
