"Ah, when will Rurik come out? Our brother is good at everything, but he has too much sense of responsibility. He obviously doesn't need to take care of it. When the time comes, my father will definitely only scold the captain. He has too many things.
Already."
The bored Volorida used a dagger to cut off pieces of meat from the lamb leg in front of him, then stuffed them into his mouth, and then drank the palace kvass in the water bag, but due to the depression in his heart, he felt that the food in his mouth tasted nothing.
No.
"If I had known this, I might as well have found a girl to play with. Vasiliko, you don't know. My father's martial arts tournament attracted fighters from all over the world and also attracted prostitutes from all over the country. I am here these nights.
It feels so good to play with different bitches. Just yesterday, I found two Italian women..."
As a person who is always restless, Volorida immediately told her glorious "history" to her younger brother Vasiliko who was reading a book in front of her, but Vasiliko just rolled his eyes at his second brother.
But Volorida really couldn't sit still. Even though she was despised by her younger brother, she still kept talking. She told the story about those bed brothers in vivid and vivid way, and gradually attracted all the people drinking nearby. Everyone was very interested in this kind of thing.
Stories are always the most interesting.
And Volorida became more and more sophisticated as she spoke, and her vivid narration made people burst into laughter. After all, this was a person who was proud of his reputation as a prostitute in Kiev...
Vasiliko finally couldn't bear it anymore because of his unattractive brother. Although he was also a married man, he was still embarrassed to see his brother telling dirty jokes and making himself the center of the entire pub. This was really embarrassing.
It's insulting to politeness.
"Okay, Volorida, stop your nonsense. Soldier, clear this place for me."
As the voice that everyone in Kiev heard sounded, a group of soldiers wearing shiny chainmail rushed in. When the diners and drinkers saw this, they immediately ran away. Only the shop owner was at a loss what to do.
But then someone threw a bag into his hand, and the silver coins in it made a crisp sound when they collided with each other, and the boss's expression immediately changed to one of joy.
"Compensation for you, boss."
Rurik first gave instructions to the shop owner who kept nodding and bowing, and then looked at his two brothers.
"Volorida, you are really boring, talking about your bed war in public, don't you have any sense of being the son of the Grand Duke?"
Faced with her brother's accusation, Volorida just shrugged her shoulders without fear, with a look of "What can you do to me?", "It's not because you went to work halfway. I just have to do this to kill time.
It’s nice to brag about those things.”
"You idiot, I..."
"Let's get going, brother, otherwise you will definitely spend the whole day hurting each other here."
Vasiliko's voice hurriedly intervened. He looked at the two brothers quite helplessly. Why could they always have such meaningless bickering for so long? Don't they feel bored? He had seen them several times today.
Thinking of this, Vasiliko's heart was immediately filled with helplessness. If not for his father's forced order, he would not have gone to visit the conference with his two brothers.
In Vasiliko's world, nothing is more important than his absorption of knowledge. Even after getting married, he is still immersed in learning and has no interest in the outside world.
They are really very different and have absolutely nothing in common.
"Yes, Vasiliko is right. Just follow what father said, go see this area and have fun, and I will lead you. Anyway, we are not just here for fun."
Volorida no longer quarreled with his brother. Vasiliko gave him just the right steps to use. The same was true for Rurik. With the steps, he was too lazy to argue with this stubborn brother.
debate.
Then the three brothers dressed up a little, took off their fancy clothes, and put on their inconspicuous gray cloaks. This was Rostislav's request, asking them to take a good look at the conference without revealing their identities.
.
Then they set foot on the road and merged into this huge flow of people, as inconspicuous as ordinary people.
Volorida immediately mentioned to his brothers where there were good prostitutes, but all he got was the glares from his brothers, and he could only shut up in embarrassment. However, he soon found other topics and immediately started chattering.
.
"Really? My children are setting off."
Soon after, in the Vladimir Palace, Rostislav heard the news that his sons were traveling together, and he said happily.
At this moment Rostislav is looking at the "Military Service List". After ten years, he finally produced this big record of Russia's military strength, and the result is a qualified military force in the hands of Rostislav (to
The number of soldiers with armor as the threshold reached 16,000.
This is a very exciting number. If those strong men are included, the total can reach 40,000 or even 50,000, but it is impossible for Rostislav to mobilize that number of troops.
The reason why Rostislav asked his sons to play together is very simple. His children will soon go to various places to serve as rulers, and he hopes that before they leave, they can take a good look at Kiev society and have fun together.
.
When the children were still young, Rostislav often took them to see the markets in Moscow and walk among the people, so that they could understand the society of Russia through their ears and eyes, so as to avoid feeling separated from the people in the future.
Rostislav attaches great importance to the power of the people. Although he is very clear that the basis of his rule is those feudal lords, and as the leader of the feudal lords, he can just spend his energy on these people, but Rostislav actually still cares about the future and future of the people.
Welfare spent a lot of energy. After all, he is not a cold-blooded feudal ruler. If he can spare some time to do something for the people, he will do it, and now as the Grand Duke of Kiev, he can naturally do this.
But after Rostislav became the Grand Duke of Kiev, he had less and less free time to take his son to visit the market. More important things occupied the work schedule of Grand Duke Rostislav, making him extremely busy, so he was unable to pay attention to his children.
them.
And Zoe spends all her energy on her daughter Cosenia. This little girl obviously needs more care, and she doesn't have the energy to take care of her sons. After all, they are all older children.
The children are becoming more and more busy with various things, Rurik is busy governing, Volorida is busy fighting and looking for women, and Vasiliko is completely immersed in books, and they are getting farther and farther away from Russian society.
And another point is that the relationship between the three brothers is alienated. Rurik and Volorida are okay. These brothers usually bicker and quarrel with each other all day long. There is nothing that they won't argue about.
, in fact, this made their relationship better and better.
But Vasilko, that boy was completely immersed in the world of books, ignoring the outside world, and had less communication with his brothers. Rostislav was really worried about this younger son.
Under such circumstances, he came up with the idea of letting them play together this time. Rostislav has already arranged a territory for his sons. After the tournament is over, he will announce where his sons will go in the future.
From now on, it will be difficult for the sons to see each other, and the enfeoffment is related to Rostislav's future plan for Ros, so he will make another effort here to let them enjoy a leisurely experience together, hoping that they can survive a period of
Fun time brings children closer together.
This is completely beneficial and harmless. Rostislav’s expectations are simple and realistic. After all, Rostis’ future must be handed over to his sons. He cannot control what happens after his death. He must first let his children
If they build a friendly relationship with each other, the chances of his plan going smoothly will be higher.
