Chapter 99

Viscount Buryat's collar is long and narrow from east to west, covering an area of 8000 square kilometers. It is located in the northeast of Victor's collar. The Buryat family has ruled here for 400 years. There has been little war. The Viscount leads a simple people and has a large population. By the time this generation of viscount Buryat inherited the title, the territory had a population of more than 50000.

60 kilometers east of the junction of viscount and Victor, it is the wild willow city of the Buryat family. The city has been operated by the Buryat family for more than 200 years. After several repairs and expansion, it has become a famous city with beautiful scenery and perfect facilities.

At this time of year, outside Yeliu City, surrounded by small rivers and shaded by green willows, it is a good place for summer vacation. The Buryat family built a noble manor in the depths of the willow forest. Because the corner of the manor is full of ivy that can climb the wall, the manor is also called Ivy manor.

In the courtyard of the Ivy League manor, a tiger headed little boy was holding a short wooden sword to practice with a bodyguard. The little boy was only 5 or 6 years old. He was young and ignorant. He was more playing than practicing sword. A short sword waved and danced wildly, but knocked the tall and strong bodyguard upside down, which made the little guy laugh.

Seeing his son jumping with joy, OBEs Viscount Buryat also smiled. Although the little guy's swordsmanship is terrible, practicing swordsmanship at this age is not the focus, but to cultivate his interest and self-confidence in force.

"OBEs, try my coffee." A beautiful woman in a long goose yellow dress shouted to the viscount.

OBAS turned to his wife, took the silver teacup, touched it on his smooth and delicate hand, and then he got a beautiful white eye.

"Judy, did you add milk to it?" After tasting it, OBEs smiled at his wife.

"Yes, I added three spoonfuls of milk in addition to snow sugar in this cup of coffee. How about it? My great knight." Said the Viscount with a smile.

Coffee has become the most popular and upscale drink in the aristocratic circle. This is due to its price of 120 gold sols per pound and its scarce quantity. How to drink coffee has become the content of discussion among noble ladies. Whether to use silver cup or gold cup, or horn cup, add fruit juice or milk, what is the proportion? Of course, noble snow sugar is always indispensable. The price of 120 golden sols, of which 10 golden sols are used to buy snow sugar, and only half a pound.

The nobles have recognized the nobility of snow sugar. Only one feature of this seasoning is its pure sweetness. Unfortunately, it is not sold on the market at all, so its price has far exceeded that of honey.

"It's delicious and slippery. It's delicious. Just like you." OBEs praised his wife's quality and didn't forget to flirt.

In the face of her husband's ridicule and compliment, Judy returned a charming smile.

The Viscount is as beautiful as a flower and has a gentle temperament. Obess dotes on her. Judy was also very satisfied with her husband. ORBIS was not only a Viscount, but also a great Knight of the silver class. The two have been together for ten years, but their feelings are deeper.

While tasting coffee, the viscount and his wife watched Aizi play. Just as they enjoyed the warm moment, a servant came to the viscount.

"My Lord, Lord Austin is here."

The Viscount smiled apologetically to his wife, got up and went inside. When he got to the living room, he saw his half brother, Austin Buryat.

"Good day, brother."

Austin touched the chest and saluted the Viscount Buryat. Although they were brothers, the etiquette of monarchs and ministers could not be forgotten.

"What did your Majesty's envoy say?" The Viscount waved to his brother not to be polite.

"Brother, her majesty said that as long as we serve her, when Prince Edward succeeds to the throne, her majesty will cut us a territory from the man horse hills, about the size of a baron." Austin said in a deep voice, but with some excitement.

Viscount Buryat frowned. As a neutral Lord, he did not want to get involved in the struggle for the throne when the situation was still uncertain. Because of this, he did not personally receive the Queen's Secret envoy, but asked Austin to receive him.

"Brother, joining her Majesty's command is our best choice and our only choice." Seeing her brother's hesitation, Austin took the initiative to say.

"Do you think Williams has no chance of winning?" Asked the Viscount to Austin.

"The grand duke and the queen have the same strength, but the Kingdom has its own laws. Trying to seize the inheritance right of his nephew as an uncle violates the tradition of nobility and will be criticized. The most important thing is that even if we take refuge in the grand duke, we will not be valued by the Grand Duke with the strength of the family. He will not risk offending the York family to fight for the territory of Renma hill for us." Austin replied.

Viscount Buryat said nothing. He understood Austin's mind. The family had been peaceful for hundreds of years, and the land had already been enfeoffed. Now Austin is only one step away from the silver stage, but he has only one manor, a 5000 mu fief and a title of Lord. Naturally, he is unwilling. But for a baron, how can Viscount Buryat put the future of the family on the gambling table.

"The risk is too great. Archduke is not as simple as you think. After the death of the first king, it was Archduke who stabilized the kingdom. On the surface, he traded men and horses for the support of the York family, but put the kingdom in a situation of East-West attack, but in fact, it was because of his choice that he avoided the fate of the Kingdom being overthrown immediately."

"If he didn't win over the York family at that time, in the style of the York family, he would certainly serve his majesty Neo West. After all, the kingdom was first against the York family. If the York family really served his majesty, what consequences would gonbis have?"

"In the era when the former king was in power, everyone despised Archduke Williams. After the death of the former king, the intelligence shown by the Archduke was really amazing. Now that he wants to compete for the throne, I'm afraid he is very sure. We need to take a look again." Viscount Buryat shook his head and sighed.

"Brother, I understand what you said. I'm not just for myself, but our buryates are no longer qualified to be neutral." Austin said sincerely: "There are too many people in our territory. If we can't expand our territory this time, the family can only launch a family war against the surrounding lords in another 50 years. No matter how the war is fought, we will lose because we don't choose the camp at the critical time. Whoever inherits the throne will punish us according to the laws of the kingdom. If we choose Archduke, he won't fight for territory for us Choose your Majesty the queen. She has promised us a baron. I believe with the talent of his highness Roland, I can compete with that one in a few years, not to mention Lord goron. "

Viscount Buryat understands that what his brother said is true. The family has developed peacefully for hundreds of years, and the population has reached the limit of the territory. Although there are many free people in the territory, most of them are the descendants of leaders and vassals, rather than external refugees. As a lord, he can't expel them at all. In another 50 years, we can imagine how many people there will be in the territory 。

Originally, when the Kingdom sold Renma hills, Buryat also wanted to buy a territory, but Renma hills became a wrestling field between the prince party and the grand duke party. All neutral lords were unwilling to stand in line ahead of time, and the Buryat family finally gave up this plan. Only the eskri family bought a territory in Renma hills. They are the direct lineage of Marquis golon, whether grand duke or grand duke The queen wants to give the old Marquis a face.

Viscount Buryat was upset. He picked up his tea cup for a drink, but he thought of the coffee Judy had prepared for him. An idea came to mind.

"Did the secret envoy say that the queen is going to give us that territory?" Asked the viscount in a deep voice.

"It's Baron Victor's territory. The emissary said that the area of Victor's territory far exceeds that of Baron's. according to the royal decree, at least three castles need to be built to maintain the security of the territory. Her Majesty is ready to push the Senate to review the legitimate right of Baron Victor's territory."

Viscount Buryat's mind turned sharply and thought for a moment, then she understood the Queen's intention. The real reason why the queen wooed herself was to deal with Baron victor. She knew the plight of the Buryat family, and the family territory just borders on Victor, so she put forward a condition she could not refuse: if she wanted territory, she must cooperate with her to impeach Baron Victor first.

Having figured this out, Buryat also made a decision.

"You're right, but we don't need to take a clear-cut stand to take refuge in her majesty. There is a way to show kindness to her majesty without attracting the attention of the Archduke. It can also reduce the pressure on the territory. We'll make a choice when the situation is clear."

"What method?"

"Baron Victor's work point system is making a lot of noise among the free people, and we'll publicize it for him. Besides, Baron Victor set up a free people camp at the junction with us, with bad intentions."

"It seems that the camp was set up by the church. It is said that there are fierce wolves moving there. I'm afraid the free people dare not go deep into Victor's collar. Finally, don't rush into our territory?" Austin said anxiously.

"Because of this, we have to send people to infiltrate. As long as our people can control the camp, we can organize the free people to rush into Victor's collar, and how many people can be eaten by several fierce wolves?"
