PS: There should be another update today, but it will be late.
After they were angry with each other, Alice's attitude towards Aaron was even more different. She motioned for Aaron to follow her, and looked at him with her beautiful burgundy eyes from time to time. There was relief, tenderness, and a hint of encouragement in her eyes.
: "Aaron, I once told you to learn from Ms. Alustriel, not from Sammaster, do you still remember?"
"Yes, so I am as loyal to Your Highness as I am to Ms. Alustriel." Aaron took the opportunity to show his loyalty.
The Son of Chaos thought to herself, "Why am I working so hard? The regent doesn't know everything, but she has probably now concluded that Aaron is interested in her and is willing to go through life and death for her."
Okay, Alice Sayre thought, that would be the best.
She is a resolute, self-centered dictator. She only believes in her own judgment. So as long as she uses the logic of "this man likes me" in the future, Aaron will have a reason for everything he does.
Moreover, Aaron really has a lot of thoughts about her. If he wants to steal the country, there is no better way than to take over the body and mind of the regent princess.
"Oh, I know that there is something else mixed in your loyalty." Alice Searle smiled half-heartedly, and the Regent Princess nodded slightly, finally showing a little of her private side: "Sometimes I am really alone.
I'm a little tired, Charlotte is naive and doesn't care about state affairs, so you know why I appointed you as the Black Staff Grandmaster?"
"Yes, all major events in Zilong's country are tied to His Highness. Since His Highness came to power, it is known to everyone that he has had no food and clothing until midnight." Aaron continued to flatter him: "Your Highness should try his best to relieve His Highness. Please look forward to my performance in the future.
"
If anyone else had said these words, Alice Searle would definitely have scorned her. The Regent Princess had never believed in the future warriors and the flowers weaved by words.
Alice Sayre took Aaron to a room where there was a map of the entire territory of Cormyr. The map had been marked and three areas were circled.
"Ha, you cunning guy." Alice Serre looked back and said with a smile: "Is your injury healed? Can you come on duty tomorrow?"
"Yes, in two weeks, Cormyr, Waterdeep, Baldur's Gate, Silvermoon City, Amn, Neverwinter, and Mulhorand will be on sale at the same time." Aaron nodded: "Cormyr is here.
Susar and Mashanbai, 1,000 copies for Susar and 500 copies for Mashanbai, first come first served, one person is limited to two boxes."
Alice Searle sneered: "You are still Charlotte's magic apprentice. Why, Charlotte can do it, but I can't do it?"
"Speaking of which, the Silver Chamber of Commerce you established will start selling silver lotion soon, right?" Alice Sayre thought of other things.
"Then please send another order, Your Highness." Aaron joked: "You can still arrest me, but you can do it now."
"Your Highness, can you give me some time to think about it?"
Thinking of how much he expressed his admiration for her again and again, how he went to Arabelle to fight for her, took risks and repeatedly made military exploits, and solved big problems for her, I couldn't help but be moved, and said softly, "Yeah
"After a word, he said nothing more.
"Yes, there is a saying in the Purple Dragon Knights that the relationship between His Highness and Duke Caspar is... a family affair, and everyone should not get involved." Aaron said in a deep voice: "Although the reputation of the Father of Darkness is in the country,
Internal affairs are very bad, but it is the consensus of all major churches not to interfere in mortal affairs. As long as Duke Caspar is here, the churches have no reason to interfere in our internal affairs."
"If His Highness needs it, you can do it now." Aaron pretended to sigh: "Other people's words will definitely not do it, but who made you His Highness?"
The study room is not big. The princess is sitting on a chair covered with purple velvet. She crosses one of her beautiful black silk feet. The back of the black suede red-soled high heel is dislodged and only hangs on the beautiful black silk foot.
The tip swayed back and forth, and there was a hint of comfort on the iceberg-like and arrogant delicate face. He leaned back against the backrest and held the goblet in his hand. The golden champagne liquid swayed along the wall of the goblet, stirring up bursts of hops.
Aaron stood up, and he could see that this should be Alice Sayre's private study. The room was not big, with the desk and bookcase taking up half of it. The rest was the reception area, and the glazed window next to it was covered by curtains.
, there is a row of carefully cut potted plants under the window, and outside the window is the royal garden, with a cracked and overgrown lion statue staring into the room.
Alice Sayre's beautiful eyes sparkled, she liked this word.
Alice Serre was unmoved. The princess just looked at him, watched him walk to the door of the room, then watched him turn back, and hummed: "Why don't you go?"
Aaron burst into laughter and stood up immediately: "Yes, Your Highness! I'll go now!"
These are the three fiefdoms that Aaron can choose from.
They exchanged information with each other.
Father, was it you who sent him to me?
Thinking of this, Alice's fair skin was gradually stained with a blush. She glared at Aaron in shame and whispered: "By the way, you already know about my body from Charlotte."
That’s a problem, right?”
The first fiefdom is located on the northwest border of Cormyr, just at the junction of the western and eastern sections of the Stormhorn Mountains. It is located at the "L"-shaped corner of the two mountain ranges. It is surrounded by mountains to the north and west, and the King's Forest is to the south.
The east side is connected to the town of Evening Star by a road. The town is called Tenorok. It was almost destroyed in the Goblin War. There is only a blacksmith shop and an "Old Face" hotel left in the city, and the condition is very poor.
The Viscount made a gesture to leave, but he walked very slowly, turning back every time he took a step, waiting for the princess to call him.
"I will pay attention." Alice Serre took this matter to heart, but the regent's attention was not here. She gently adjusted her sitting posture, and her pair of wonderful black stocking legs rubbed slightly, making a "swishing sound"
"Sound: "So, are you ready to become my Black Rod Ceremony Officer?"
Under the long red velvet skirt, the slender calves wrapped in black translucent oily stockings have clear curves and are full of elasticity. A pair of red-soled high heels make a "click" sound when stepping on the carpet. Alice Sell's strong body fragrance wafts out.
Come, the fragrance lingers on Aaron's nose and invades his heart, giving him a feeling of relaxation and joy.
"I know, but... we have no evidence now. Aaron, Manakorn is also a hero of the kingdom now. Without definite evidence, I can't touch him." Alice Serre shook her head: "Besides, you know
, Brother-in-law... Duke Caspar’s question about my regency is legitimate. The nobles don’t like me. If I convict you at will, the country will fall apart."
"What a realistic guy."
Arranging for him to be by your side seems to be a lot of fun.
Aaron didn't make up his mind right away.
Sure enough, this person is shameless!
Really shameless!!!
But it was Aaron who said this, but it directly spoke to Alice Sayre's heart.
"Choose this place, and I will confer you the title of Grand Baron of the Sunset. There is no castle to garrison here. Everything depends on you. Therefore, I will allow you to form a legion of your own and make you the commander of the legion. For the time being, I will
You pay for the military expenses." Alice Searle pointed to the location of the third fiefdom: "For at least five years, the military expenses will be paid by the royal finance. After that, you may have to rely on yourself."
The advantage of the redwood forest is that it is close to Arabelle, and as a neighbor to Ms. Raul, it can naturally receive a lot of support from Ms. Raul, and there is a road in the redwood forest that leads through the Stormhorn Mountains to the rocky land in the north.
The sea and the Anonoke Desert allow transportation to reach all directions.
What a woman who doesn't mean what she says.
But Sunset Town is not only close to the chaotic Hurek Forest, but also not protected by mountains. Across the Sunset River to the north is the city of Tiffanyton, which is still in decline and has not yet been recovered. To the northwest is the valley, and then to the Ke
Manso Forest.
From Alice Sayre's point of view, Aaron is really an upstart who was single-handedly promoted by her. His own brand is too strong on him. Probably for this reason, Aaron is very determined to fall in love with her.
"I have already fought against them." Aaron said through gritted teeth.
Aaron groaned in surprise: "Your Highness, I thought I was the ceremony official?"
Alice Searle treats herself well. The area of the three territories has exceeded the size of a barony, and is as big as two baronies.
us?
"Okay, think about it first, don't worry, once the fiefdom is sealed, there is no reason to change it casually."
Red Forest Territory, Sunset Territory and Ms. Raul are neighbors, which is a major benefit.
Alice Searle continued to sneer.
"I don't know where the kitchen is." Aaron said confidently, "Your Highness, please lead the way!"
After saying that, he really walked outside.
Tenorok is relatively isolated, with mountains on two sides and forests on the other. If he also serves as the lord of the nearby Warning Fortress, then it is not an exaggeration to say that this corner of the kingdom is its own independent world, even if the transportation is blocked and the land is poor
.
Alice Searle wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Aaron's arrogance, but she couldn't feel any resentment in her heart. Instead, she felt an urge to laugh, and she felt a sense of joy from the bottom of her heart.
Alice Searle didn't make any fuss about this matter anymore. It was fun to make things difficult for Aaron a little bit, and it would help the two of them understand each other, but it would be counterproductive after that.
As his own ceremonial officer, he actually dared to ask himself to lead the way!
"If you choose this place, I will confer upon you the title of Baron Red Forest and the title of deputy commander of the Northern Army." Alice Sayre looked at Aaron: "You may interact with the barbarians and lions from the north, including those from the Moon.
The thieves fight in the sea area."
After finishing speaking, Alice Serre stood there, quietly waiting for Aaron's choice.
The advantage of Tenorok is that it is a closed grassland, surrounded by mountain peaks to the west and north. Not far away is the "Fort Alert", the castle stationed by the Purple Dragon Knights, so there is no need to worry about foreign enemies at all, but the traffic is very poor, and only the east side is
There are roads leading to Evening Star Town and Arabelle City.
Alice Searle did not urge her. The regent princess straightened her skirt and signaled to Aaron that there was no need to worry. The two of them still had a lot of time, so they could sit down and chat slowly.
own people.
"If you choose to stay here, then I will let you serve as the Lord of the Guarded Castle and be named Baron Tenorok." Alice Sayre introduced.
The wine cabinet is next to the desk, and there are many fine wines from all over the country.
"Pfft! Did I take back the champion knight, the minister of bodyguard, and the fiefdom?" Alice Serre couldn't help laughing. The regent princess tilted her head, showing a rare hint of shyness. At the same time, in order to cover up this shyness, she pretended to be stern.
"Manarkon-Anaheim, Son of Benn." Alice Sayre raised the goblet and mentioned the name, her face changed slightly, and her two beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly, as if she was a little unhappy.
Looks like: "He once pursued me and also pursued Charlotte."
"How dare I not accept the opportunity to accompany His Highness?" Aaron showed some "flattered" expressions as he said: "I believe that compared to others, this is the best reward for me from Your Highness."
Here we have to face the pressure from the Zhentarim of the Moon Sea, and there are no Purple Dragon Knights stationed in the castle nearby, so everything depends on Aaron himself.
"It seems that your so-called loyalty and sincerity are not very true. You are only willing to pay when facing Charlotte and your childhood sweetheart, the little priest."
It is normal for people to be canonized in border areas. The prime areas near the capital are either directly under the royal family or have nobles. Only the border areas have complete baron standard territory canonization.
The advantage of Sunset Town is also that it is close to Arabelle, has Ms. Raul as a neighbor, and is close to Long Lake. The transportation is extremely convenient, the land is fertile, and two streams converge here.
"Very good, I will be there in person to cut the ribbon for you." Alice Searle thought to herself, how much tax revenue can Aaron create for the kingdom every year? How much foreign exchange can he earn?
Aaron thought about the tendencies of the three fiefdoms.
The second fiefdom is located on the northern border of Cormyr, directly north of Arabelle City. It is close to the eastern section of the Stormhorn Mountains. There is a forest at the foot of the mountain called "Redwood Forest" and the town is "Red Spring Town".
, this is also a wasteland ravaged by goblin wars, surrounded by three castles garrisoned by purple dragon knights.
It seems that the princess works here every day.
This man is really useful in every sense of the word!
"Yes, he should be the Son of God Benn." Aaron nodded: "He seems to have always supported Duke Caspar."
Aaron chose a bottle of champagne that was exactly the same as Alice Serre. He chose to sit on the right side of the princess, smelling the mature fragrance emanating from her body, watching her full lips open slightly from time to time as she spoke, and her chest
The front was tall, the waist was full under the red velvet dress, and the round and slender black silk legs and feet reflected a faint oily color that illuminated Aaron's heart, and the two started chatting.
The third fiefdom is located northeast of Cormyr and east of Arabelle. It includes a forest area southwest of the Hurek Forest. It is surrounded by Sunken Creek to the north and west and is connected to Arabelle through the Massona Bridge.
, in the south is next to Feilongshui Lake, across the lake from Shenhai where the Longci family is located. Feilong Lake is connected to Longhu through Longshui River, and the town is called "Sunset Town".
The Sunset Territory is very rich, with a lot of flat land. Below it is Feilong Lake. You can reach the capital in about a day by boat. However, the security is very poor. The Hurek Forest was developed during Assan IV, but with the rise of Assan IV
After dying in battle, Hurek Forest was almost ignored. Choosing to choose this place not only had to be responsible for security, but also faced the pressure of the Cormanthor Forest and the Sea of the Moon.
Alice Serre rolled her eyes at him, a hint of cunning flashed through her eyes, and she directly picked up the goblet: "Let's start from now on, Aaron, I'm hungry, you go to the kitchen and make me something to eat, you
Aren’t you good at cooking?”
"Champagne? Wine? Malt liquor? Or whiskey? Ferrian pure wine? Leathermann fire wine?" Alice Searle said casually: "The wine cabinet is right there, go get it yourself."
The Red Forest Territory is relatively safe. Not only does it have a mountain peak in the north, but it is also protected by three border castles nearby.
"Yes." Aaron thought to himself.
"Very good. Since you have become my Black Staff Ceremony Officer, you will replace Yumi when the time comes."
Aaron: "?"
