Three days later, early in the morning, Morgiana, with a rosy and shiny complexion, personally sent Ryan and Sulia away.
Lidya Su's face was bright and moving, and Ryan's face was pretty pretty.
After leaving the Fairy in the Lake Tower, Ryan took a day of rest and felt much better.
Ryan always feels that after coming back this time, even Sulia has become clingy. The female knight is now with him all day long. However, the earl can understand if he thinks about it for a moment. As a wife, Sulia is still
Not having an heir was something the female knight could not bear, especially when Emilia was already pregnant.
The noble court was darker and more bloody than imagined. Without a qualified heir, Sulia's wife's position was not completely stable.
Thinking of the little maid, Ryan felt a little worried, and he didn't know how Amelia was doing now. He sent Baron Hex of Devon to Brunswick and Noor, and sent a letter of approval signed by him personally, expressing
He admitted that he was the father of the child in Emilia's belly, and sent a jar of berry wine and the bottle of diluted eau de life.
The diluted water of life was obtained from the dark salon he once attended in Marienburg, and the berry wine came from the wood elves' apology for Morgiana's betrayal.
To choose the champion, Araloth-the Hero and the Prophetess Liv brought four cans of berry wine, and Ryan drank one can during the championship showdown with Egil, and three more cans.
Regarding this matter, Ryan asked the Lake Fairy, and the Lake Fairy gave a positive answer on this point, that is, the water of life and berry wine are definitely beneficial to Emilia's body.
As for whether to go to Noor... Ryan decided to follow Galt's advice.
It's not the right time. Now is the time when Emilia is wrestling with the Imperial Council to regain her position as elector. Ryan's appearance will cause too many changes and give Emilia's political opponents an excuse to attack her.
If Ryan wants to go to Noor, he can only wait until the dust settles before going.
All that can be done now is to wait for the results.
Just in time, taking advantage of the opportunity to prepare for war, Ryan was ready to make his next plan.
That is to audit and reform all the churches in his territory.
Before we knew it, it was June.
The climate is getting hotter and hotter. The scorching sun in summer is scorching the earth. The summer in Britannia is not as hot as Estalia or Tyrell. The serfs can still keep working, and the knights can also
Continue training.
Inside the Earl of Glamorgan's winery, the air conditioning is on.
In the restaurant, Ryan, Sulia, and Sylvia were enjoying breakfast together.
"Miss, do you need some more milk?" Sylvia was wearing a standard maid outfit, with a headscarf and era on her golden hair. The head maid with a serious face also asked: "Mr. Ryan, do you need it too?
?”
"Didn't I tell you, Sylvia, you can just call me Ryan from now on." Holding the soft and delicious butter bread in his hand, Ryan once again corrected Sylvia's fallacy: "We are a family.
, forget it outside, you keep calling me Mr. Ryan at home, it’s really a bit awkward, isn’t it?”
"Rules are rules! Even if you are the husband of a young lady, there is still no less of a rule you should abide by!" When Sylvia saw Ryan looking at her, her handsome and heroic face turned red inexplicably, and she quickly moved away.
He looked at her and said in a strong tone: "You are the master, I am the servant, and I am the lady's maid. Of course I should call you Mr. Ryan."
Ryan really felt helpless towards Sylvia. This maid had a temper as hard as a stone.
The count himself was a little unhappy. He shook his head with a wry smile and stopped talking.
Sylvia thought that Ryan had given up on this issue, but as his wife, Sulia immediately realized the change in Ryan's mood. The female knight spoke: "Sylvie (Sylvia's name), who
Is he the earl of this territory?"
"Of course Mr. Ryan." the maid replied without thinking.
"Then at home, who is the head of the family?" Sulia continued to ask with a smile.
Sylvia now understood what Lidya Su meant, and the head maid lowered her head: "But I am the lady's maid..."
"You are our couple's maid, and Ryan's orders are my orders." Sulia continued, and the female knight elegantly brushed her waist-deep golden curly hair with her hand: "Do you understand?"
Sylvia didn't answer anymore, she just remained silent.
Ryan knew that Sylvia had listened, but her character was like this, so he didn't say anything more. He turned to Sulia and said: "Sulia, let's set off after breakfast."
"Yes." The female knight nodded. Ryan and Sulia planned to go home for a visit today and interview an escaped slave who fled to Lyon from Lyon: "Sylvie, you will go with us.
Right?"
"But..." Sylvia was still a little entangled. Facing Lidya Su's gaze, Sylvia finally agreed: "I understand."
Fifteen minutes later, breakfast was finished and everyone was getting ready to go out. Since they were moving within the town, Ryan did not bring many men with him. He, Sulia, Sylvia and the newly promoted knight errant Juan, this is
All the people they had for this home visit.
In the cloakroom of the winery.
The room with an area of 30 square meters is filled with Sulia's clothes. The countess's wealth and luxury can be seen from this. When Sulia married Ryan, she used several carriages to pack her clothes.
In more than a year after her wedding, she added a lot of new clothes, various jewelry, and shoes.
In addition to the 10,000 gold crowns given by Angron and the 8,000 gold crowns given by Francois, Sulia's dowry also included a subsidy from the fairy in the lake and a betrothal gift from the emperor himself. Her wealth and status made her
All the aristocratic women in the entire knight kingdom are envious.
The female knight quickly selected a sky blue embroidered carved silk princess dress, paired with a pair of milky white suede high heels. She changed clothes under Sylvia's service.
"Sylvia, you don't like Ryan, do you?" Sulia looked at Sylvia in the mirror and said suddenly.
"I don't dislike him." Sylvia shook her head: "I just think he is unfair to the lady."
"Unfair?" Sulia smoothed the wrinkles of the flesh-colored stockings on her calves with her fingers.
"He obviously already has a young lady, but he still has many women." Sylvia said angrily: "It is already a great honor for him to get the young lady's favor, but he has two female courtiers alone.
, and the dark elf maid..."
"Those are all women he had a relationship with before he got married. Ryan promised me at that time that he would not add anyone else after the wedding." Lidya Su smiled. She actually wanted to discuss this issue with Sylvie.
Chatting with Ya, the countess really didn’t want her maid who was a sister to have any conflict with Ryan: “He is willing to make such an oath for me, what are you still struggling with?”
Sylvia lowered her head and said nothing, her golden bangs covering her face.
Knowing that her maid was just being dissatisfied, Sulia simply spread her arms and said: "Besides, what should I do? Do you think I should use my identity as a lady to ask Ryan's two female courtiers to pack their things and leave? This is in line with the knight
What? If I can do this, what if Ryan asks you to leave in turn? You are making Ryan very embarrassed."
Sylvia began to realize the countless problems involved. She stood behind Lidya Su, still saying nothing.
"Sylvia, let me ask you, do you really not plan to leave me and get married in the future?" Seeing that Sylvia was silent, Sulia knew that she was aware of this problem, so the female knight simply spoke out.
"I want to be with the lady for the rest of my life." Sylvia's attitude towards this matter was very firm.
"Then as my maid, you will one day become Ryan's female courtier." Sulia said directly.
"Miss!!!" Sylvia suddenly blushed: "I'm just your maid!"
"You are not only my maid, but also my dowry."
…………I am the dividing line of dowry…………
Thirty minutes later, Sulia and Sylvia got into the carriage after changing their clothes.
In the carriage, Ryan was talking to Sulia about some recent events. He noticed that more and more churches were opening in his territory: "Sulia, have you noticed? In our territory recently,
More and more churches of various kinds are opening.”
"This is normal. As a region becomes prosperous and wealthy, major churches will definitely come here to compete for faith. Don't forget, Ryan, Madam's church is the most powerful supporter behind you." Sulia said as
As someone who usually manages internal affairs, the Countess is very familiar with the major churches in the territory, and all major churches have visited Sulia and obtained permission to preach.
There are many sects in the old world, among which the most famous and powerful Church of Justice has established a temple in Lane's territory. The person in charge is Alfred. Due to Alfred's missionary contribution, he was named a
The respected Templars, and because of Alfred's smooth actions, many major sects in the old world have begun to come to Ryan to preach.
The most famous among them are the Myrmedia sect of the Goddess of War, the Moorish sect of the Death God, the sect of the God of Nature Tal and the Mother Goddess Leia, the sect of the God of Justice Valenna, and the sect of the Poseidon Mannann.
These sects have successively built temples in Ryan's territory and started preaching.
Not only did Lane not stop him, on the contrary, as an earl, he encouraged the serfs in his territory to choose to believe in God and guaranteed freedom of belief. The earl said loudly more than once: "Faith is the primary productive force, and we hope that everyone can
Find your own faith.”
Of course, there is no doubt about Ryan's authority in the territory. He has always been worshiped as a god by the people in the territory. After hearing what Ryan said, almost all the serfs began to face a kind of happy trouble, and major sects also began to believe in it.
Fight for.
The Moorish Church of Death has successfully infiltrated those professions and soldiers who are engaged in high-risk jobs, because no one wants to have their soul and body played by the evil god of chaos or undead magic after their death.
The church of Mirmedia, the goddess of war, spreads among trainee knights and sergeants. The priests of the church of the goddess of war are willing to provide military education and literacy education to these people, especially those citizens who have just been promoted from serfs to freemen. There are many
People who want to read.
The beliefs of the God of Nature Tal and the Mother Goddess Leia are mainly spread among serfs, hunters and woodcutter. They rely on the land, forest, and nature to bring them life. Under the preaching of the Nature Sect, they are convinced that the only way to rely on
Only by using your own hands can you earn wealth and maintain your respect for nature.
The sect of Valenna, the God of Justice, is most favored by scholars, officials, artists and wealthy businessmen, because she represents justice and truth, but also means protection and legality.
Poseidon Mannann is of course the favorite of sailors and fishermen. Many serfs on the Chinon River who made a living by fishing have converted to the Poseidon sect under the introduction of the Poseidon priest.
As for the Mercy Goddess Salia Sect and the Lake Fairy Sect, they have been introduced before and will not be repeated here.
In Ryan's territory, the most influential one is still the Fairy of the Lake Sect. Now every Sunday, the Holy Grail Church is often overcrowded. Serfs almost come to the Holy Grail Church to pray in advance, thanking the Fairy of the Lake for their blessing and favor, and even
Many serfs showed signs of fanaticism.
The previous ban that prohibited serfs from believing in the Fairy of the Lake is gradually collapsing. Even the most conservative and stubborn knights are hard-pressed to say anything about this fanaticism. After all, every devout believer wants more from his god.
Without people's approval, especially after Ryan's speech, the most resolute knight could only mutter a few innocuous words in private, such as "the standards must be higher."
Many merchants who often trade in the Lane territory have donated large sums of wealth to the Church of the Lake Fairy in exchange for protection and status. Morgiana, the Lake God Witch, encourages and affirms those with outstanding moral character among them, and praises their moral character.
Punish businessmen who are inferior and do not adhere to the spirit of contract.
"Having faith is better than having no faith." Ryan continued, with a smile on his face: "Faith is a powerful weapon against the corruption of chaos. Now that the serfs have begun to have a subsistence life and have surplus food at home, they can easily start to think wildly.
The major sects will bring spiritual sustenance and ensure social stability."
"Speaking of which, Sir Ryan, who are we going to see today?" Young Juan is still fully armed. He is wearing a bright and blinding Sun Knight armor. The young man is very excited to be able to act with Ryan. He is a little bit
He opened the curtain impolitely.
"Mr. Juan, didn't your family teach you what politeness is? Isn't it too rude to just open the curtain like this?" The young knight immediately received Sylvia's sharp gaze, and Juan had no choice but to
Smiling to cover up his embarrassment: "Sorry."
"We are going to meet Sir Bertrand and Captain Raymond." Ryan didn't mind. He took Sulia's hand and explained to Juan.
"Oh! It's Sir Bertrand of the Green Arrow! Is he the same Sir Bertrand who killed the undead wizard Heinrich Kemmler with one arrow in the battle of La Messenelle Monastery?" Juan's eyes
It lit up, and he looked like a crazy fan: "Oh, this is so cool, I want to write a letter to my father... Mr. Lane, why did you go to see Sir Bertrand?"
"Bertrand and Raymond investigated the surrounding area of Mousilon on my order." Ryan said with some seriousness on his face: "By the way, I also want to see Raymond's family. He fled from Lyonnais.
Come, this time I return to my hometown to investigate, and I will definitely learn something about the situation there."
