Chapter 205.1

When Du Wei's carriage all the way into Loulan City, the sky has been gradually dark. Old yanzongma, the captain of Duwei's bodyguard, is at the front of the road. The castle is in front of him. The guards outside the castle are looking at the Duke's chariots and horses. How dare they stop him? They made way for each other.

Duvi was very satisfied with the construction of this castle. In his previous life, he had traveled to the West and seen those magnificent medieval castles. He always yearned for them. After he took power this time, he naturally had to satisfy himself a lot. This castle is a little bigger than the one in the Lorraine plain. In addition, several wells have been drilled around the castle, a gully has been dug around the castle, groundwater has been introduced, and a moat has been built. In this way, the land of tigers and wolves in the Northwest has more self-protection ability. Even if the outer city is broken in the future, the inner castle can be kept for more than a year and a half.

Behind a wooden bridge on the moat is the gate outside the castle. Dewey built it in the style of Buckingham Palace as he had seen before. There were several soldiers in bright armor guarding the gate. Seeing Dewey's carriage approaching, he just straightened up and saluted, but did not squint.

In the castle, Duwei just got out of the carriage, and madder had already met him. Duwei asked twice, knowing that the dinner was ready.

Loulan city is very busy these days. There are many lights and decorations everywhere. Even those serious soldiers who used to patrol the city have put on their new uniforms, and the Duke's residence in the city is decorated with new clothes. These days, from time to time, a large number of people come to the castle outside the Duke's palace and pray loudly in front of the castle.

When Dewey came to the northwest, he created miracles and had a good harvest. The establishment of the new city was a tax-free act. The people highly praised him. He took his cavalry out to "train" and wiped out many small groups of horse thieves. Most of the people in the northwest took the credit to Du Wei. thus. People here almost worship the young Duke to the extreme. They only hope that the Duke can stay in the northwest all the time and live a long life, so that his life will be rich and stable.

Therefore, it is said that the Duchess is going to celebrate his 15th birthday in two days and officially hold the ceremony these days. After the news was released, the residents of miracle city were boiling. The festival atmosphere of Loulan city was even stronger than the annual summer celebration. More people gathered around the castle to worship and bless the young Duke.

Duvidi's birthday. Needless to say, the castle has been busy for many days. Originally, Dewey didn't want to make it too complicated, but Philip advised him that since Dewey was a superior. It has its own deep meaning to hold a grand ceremony. After all, the rite of passage is only once in a lifetime. If it is too simple, it will lose the prestige of the Duke.

"Young master, the dinner party is ready. According to your instructions, it is said that the Liszt family are all from the south. I had people specially make some southern food... "As madder was about to make a detailed report, suddenly several cavalry came to the castle, jumped off their horses and saluted Duwei:" my Lord, the chariots and horses of the Liszt family have arrived outside the door! "

Dewey nodded. "Well, it's finally here."

Then he didn't have time to go in and change his clothes, so he stayed at the door to meet him.

In the evening, the guard of honor in the castle sounded the trumpet. On both sides of the gate, there are two great faces. One side is the Golden Tulip, the other is a Liszt family temperament. There are two groups of soldiers in honor guard at the door to meet.

Dewey didn't intend to make it so thick. After all, it's just two and a half children. However, among the two people who came to mind were the younger brother and younger sister of marquis Liszt, especially the younger brother of marquis Liszt, who was the only male of the Liszt family and must be the heirs of the family in the future! This kind of identity, it is not easy to neglect, and he received so many benefits from the Liszt family, naturally also want to show good kindness.

It's just a pity that Dardanelle, an old man of the Liszt family, was not in the city by accident today. Three days ago, he took people to the northwest corridor to meet a group of cattle, sheep and horses purchased by Dewey.

In the sound of the guard of honor, a group of white horse cavalry slowly through the gate into the Duke's house, came to the castle. These cavalry are wearing uniform silver armor, each seems to be a carefully selected young handsome man, and the chest is wearing the Liszt family badge. The horses in the crotch are all white horses, all white, without any mottled hair. On the head of each horse, there is a long white feather

As soon as Du Wei saw the dress of the cavalry, he knew that it must be the personal guard of the marquis in the Liszt family, known as the "white feather Knight Order"! Because only Marquis Liszt has the title of nobility in the Liszt family, and it is only a lifelong aristocrat, not hereditary, so according to the imperial law, the Liszt family is not allowed to have its own private army. Of course, although the law is so, how can such a huge rich family not have its own protection? Therefore, this white feather Knight order is in the name of "mercenary" under the name of Liszt family.

Imperial decree: no private army except hereditary nobles! But imperial decrees allowed the rich to hire mercenaries themselves.

In fact, everyone knows that the white feather knights are not mercenaries at all. They are all private soldiers of the Liszt family. However, there is only one more name, and no one will really offend the Liszt family with this kind of thing. However, due to the imperial decree, the number of mercenaries could not exceed 500. So the number of white feather knights on the official list has been kept at 499. Du Wei also knows that the so-called 499 people also have flower heads in them. There are policies on the top and Countermeasures on the bottom. The imperial decrees are more tolerant of knights. After all, although the knighthood era has passed, it has been brilliant. The biggest trick is that a knight, in addition to himself, is allowed to be equipped with up to four squires. These squires, even the knight's deputy or combat partner, are responsible for scrubbing and repairing the knight's weapons and armor, feeding his horses and training his combat skills, When fighting, as the knight's subordinates or companions, kill the enemy together... And the subtle thing is... The number of retinues is not included in the official list of the Knights! That is to say, although there are only 499 people on the official list, the number of white feather knights is at least more than 2000 if each knight can be equipped with four retinues! The Knights order, with 499 people in name but far more than 2000 in number, is the elite guard of the Liszt family. The Liszt family was a merchant's family, and had no territory of their own. Unlike Dewey, they needed a large number of troops to guard the place. Therefore, with more than 2000 cavalry, it is enough to protect itself. Du Wei sighed at the handsome knights in silver armour and white horses. After all, the leader of the Liszt family was a woman. Even the cavalry was so gorgeous. Although these white feathered knights are very beautiful, they pursue appearance too much. If you look at them carefully, even the looks of horses and the stature of horse knights are almost the same. How strong can they fight if they put all their energy on the appearance of the army? Although he shook his head secretly, Dewey's face was already full of smiles. This group of white feathered Knights dismounted in a neat posture. After 20 people dismounted, they lined up on both sides. Behind them, several carriages drove slowly to the door. In front of them was a high-grade black Nan wooden carriage. The four snow-white high headed horses were pulling the carriage. The horses were running all the way with a ring, accompanied by a clear bell. The carriage seemed ordinary, but the essence of it was collected. Duwei saw that the cost of the carriage was really amazing. It was just that the carriage of the superior black wood woodland was no worse than that of its own carriage. The wheels below, and every part of them, are made of the best materials, but they are not arrogant in appearance, so they are quite elegant. The red carpet had already been laid on the ground, and a young knight, who looked like a leader of the white knight, came slowly to the carriage. His silver armor was inlaid with some gold lace, which made him quite different from other knights. And the handsome appearance plus a head of golden curly hair, as well as the face of a faint reserve, are faint with a faint pride. He pressed the hilt of the sword on his waist with one hand, opened the door of the carriage with the other, and then slightly owed his body. Then, a slender and delicate foot stepped out of the carriage. Its round ankle and crystal clear skin were almost translucent. A delicate figure came from the carriage. As the gods testify, this woman, even the way she stooped down from the carriage, was almost beautiful to the extreme! It seems that in every action, there is a special elegance and delicacy... When she looks up, Duwei can see the girl's face clearly, and even Duwei's heart can't help beating! What a face this is
