Chapter 536

Three days later, Rose Manor, his highness Randall's study.

"Your Highness, the scroll on the left is the list of secret Knights of Rose Manor, with a total of 74 knights and 223 trainee knights. The scroll on the right is the list of secret Knights of various families, but Rose Manor only has a part of it, and the list is not complete."

Victor put down the sheepskin scroll in his hand, leaned against the back of the chair, looked at the silver haired but introverted old housekeeper, smiled and asked, "Morris, did you take the golden potion?"

The old housekeeper smiled gratefully on his smooth and ruddy face, leaned over slightly and said respectfully, "thanks to your highness and madam, I am already a senior knight."

Victor smiled and nodded, glanced at the scroll of four large boxes in the corner of the room, smiled and said: "you don't have to hurry to thank... Since you are a senior Knight now, the pension can only be postponed, and you have to continue to be the housekeeper of Rose Manor."

Old Morris said wholeheartedly, "it's an honor for me to serve your Highnesses all my life."

Victor knocked down the table and asked, "the number of secret knights in Rose Manor exceeded my estimate, and the number of secret warriors was lower than my expectation. There were only 193, less than the number of trainee knights. Why?"

"Your Highness, the secret Knight of Rose Manor was only half of what it is now."

Morris housekeeper explained: "During the knight competition held in Renma hill, many children with noble blood were adopted. Mrs. odel brought back 250 children of poor nobles from the Eastern League this time. Now we have plenty of training objects for secret knights. Because kite Castle provides baptism potion and energy potion formula, noble children have been successfully promoted to junior trainee knights and junior knights The number has increased significantly. "

"On the other hand, according to the rules of the York family, the secret Knights retired at the age of 52 and the trainee Knights retired at the age of 45. Mrs. Sylvia gave them an option. Those who use the golden potion must extend their service for 10 years. My old guys all chose the golden Potion. Therefore, the number of professional secret Knights of rose is more than half that of five years ago."

"As for the secret warrior..."

The old housekeeper pondered and said, "it takes at least 2000 kingsol to cultivate a secret warrior... The financial burden of the family is great, and all kinds of medicine resources can only be given priority to the secret knight."

Victor nodded and asked, "are families also training secret knights?"

Maurice leaned over again and replied, "Your Highness, the internal affairs of the family, the rose garden is not convenient to ask. If you want to have a detailed list of the Knights of the family, I can let the secret agent investigate the matter secretly. However, I can not guarantee the accuracy of the information."

"No investigation... I'm just curious." Victor smiled, waved his hand and asked with a relaxed expression, "the Duke of York also has secret knights and secret warriors?"

Morris hesitated for half a second and said respectfully, "yes, we know more about the power under the Duke... Your highness, would you like to have a look at the list?"

"No need." Victor got up from his seat, straightened his collar and said, "take me to the crystal flower house. I want to see Sylvia."

Morris replied, "Your Highness, madam is not in the crystal flower house at the moment. She should study the Royal notes you brought back with the family inheritance scholars in the secret room of the manor."

"Lead the way."

"Yes." The old housekeeper opened the door and led Victor to the depths of the manor.

Victor was promoted to his highness and then lived in Rose Manor. Although it was only three days, the political signal released was very strong. It was equivalent to victor and Sylvia holding a wedding, which brought new political influence to the kingdom of Gambis and the human horse hills.

Because his highness Randall's strength now is enough to threaten Sylvia's safety, the two people still live together without running in, which is enough to show that the two Highnesses have deep feelings and trust each other. The whole York family is happy about this.

However, if the York family wants to accommodate his highness Randall, the political structure of the man horse hill must be adjusted.

Victor and Sylvia meet again after a long separation. Of course, they have to be affectionate and talk to each other, but they are not tired of being together all day. They are mainly discussing the future political structure of the people and horses.

Sylvia has already prepared a more secure solution. The core content is that she and Victor's son marry the young daughter of Katrina and nbiser, and his children are the masters of the human horse hills. Victor and trisley or Nicole's children inherit the Randall family and are loyal to their half brothers. All political structural adjustments are carried out around this core.

Victor has no problem with this. In fact, the Randall family and the York family have the same problem. If the family heirs are not strong enough, they will be trampled on by external forces and lose the political heritage of their ancestors. Then Victor's implementation of the land closure centralization system and the expansion of the Randall family is just making wedding clothes for outsiders.

Apart from Nicole and trisley, I'm afraid no high-ranking female knight is willing to give himself and Victor's children to the Randall family. From this point of view, Victor must accept Sylvia's proposal and become the guardian of the next generation of people and horses.

It is a general trend to replace the enfeoffment system with the farmland centralization system, while the York family has a large body and complex internal forces. It is not easy to adjust the political structure or reform the political system.

Fortunately, Victor and Sylvia still have enough time to make the layout in advance. Before that, Victor needs to have an in-depth understanding of the current political system of the York family.

The big family generally adopts the dual core political system of guardian and eldest son Lord. The guardian is assumed by the high-ranking Knight of the family. Its duty is to protect the interests of all family members, play the role of supervisor, arbiter and decision-maker, and have the highest power. In order to maintain their authority, guardians generally do not make decisions easily, but once they give orders, they will never allow any disobedience.

The eldest son Lord is not only the buffer between the guardian and other high-level knights in the family, but also the buffer between the guardian and external forces. When the contradictions inside and outside the family cannot be reconciled, the eldest son Lord may be thrown out as a scapegoat.

Such as the Marquis of effissos in the kingdom of Borui and the Marquis of Basten in Gambis are bloody examples.

The reason for this is that the eldest son Lords have so much power that they have to bear the risk of power with their lives. As the executor and editor of family policy, the eldest son lords can almost affect all the decisions of family guardians as long as they do not harm the fundamental interests of the family and bully the family vassal members. Even if the high-ranking Knights of the vassal family are in trouble with them, the family guardian will support them.

The eldest son Lord must be handed down by blood, and the guardian is designated by the guardian of the previous generation. But the Lord and guardian of the royal family are often the same person.

In fact, the royal family and the post clan have already had the rudiment of centralization. The York family is to adjust its political structure towards the latter.

Unlike the ordinary family, Silvia is especially strong. She extends the tentacles of the rose garden to the corners of the horse's hills, and work in just ways to each vassal family. The children of all families have to go to the rose garden to receive training for the York. But in name, she must also abide by the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of each vassal family.

Just like, Rose Manor will not deliberately investigate how many secret Knights there are in the vassal family, but if Sylvia really wants to find out, she won't be unable to find out.

Morris led Victor into the back garden to a lonely three story stone building. Two knights in charge of guarding the secret room saluted victor and took the initiative to open the door.

Victor entered the stone building alone, crossed the narrow corridor, went directly to a small wooden door at the end of the corridor, raised his hand and knocked on the door. When he heard Sylvia's response, he pushed the door in.

When Sylvia saw Victor coming in, she waved to several family inheritance scholars in the house and motioned them to step down first.

The scholars put down his manuscripts, bowed to his highness and left the room, leaving victor and Sylvia alone.

Sylvia sat behind her desk and asked with a smile, "honey, have you finished reading the literature of Rose Manor?"

"Roughly looked at it again." Victor nodded, opened the chair in front of the desk and sat down facing Sylvia: "I'm not the guardian of the York family at present. I want to do something with the Randall family. I don't intend to directly participate in the affairs of the Rose Manor."

"Baby, I never intended to limit you." Sylvia shook her head and said with a smile: "but your words are not what I want to hear... I have revealed all the secrets of the Rose Manor to you. Should you also tell me the secrets of the Randall family?"

Victor said innocently: "I haven't founded Randall family for nine years. Randall has no place you can't go. What secrets can Randall family have? What secrets can I have? Well... The only mystery of Randall family is old Miller. However, his mouth is more tight than the city wall. His proverb has helped me a lot. In addition, he won't tell me anything anymore Love. "

Sylvia nodded thoughtfully and asked softly, "my Lord is not my Lord, my Lord is not my lord... This proverb almost reveals the true face of the material world. Your 'mind is the master, blood is the law' is based on this proverb?"

"Yes." Victor said with emotion: "without Miller's proverb, I dare not imagine that my soul is actually a part of the will of the world in this world where gods are revealed and demons are hidden. If I can't clarify my holiness, how can there be a secret method of spiritual blood?"

Sylvia sighed faintly, looked into Victor's dark golden eyes, pursed her mouth and said with a smile: "your wisdom and talent are extraordinary. Although clement is wise, he has gone too far on the road of the clergy. It is difficult to understand even after listening to Miller's proverbs."

"You mean old Miller's proverbs are specially for me?" Victor's eyes flashed and asked, "what the hell does he want to do?"

"Don't try to change the subject!"

Sylvia raised the sheepskin scroll in her hand, raised her slender eyebrows and said teasingly: "The manuscript of the wizard of kite castle is invaluable. He is willing to exchange his research results for your spiritual blood secret method. It shows the importance of spiritual blood secret method... How can you hide such an important thing from me? Last night, you kept saying that I am your favorite woman. Today, you said that you have no secrets to me?"

"I can explain this."

Victor held Sylvia's slender hand in his palm and rubbed it carefully. His expression was very sincere and said: "My secret method of spiritual blood is not mature at all. I ran into Feng Ya in Neville, understood the commonalities of the two blood lines and integrated them, but the secret method of spiritual blood is only useful to me, far from success... How can I show my failure in front of the most beloved woman?"

Sylvia giggled and supported the table with one hand. The whole person fell gently into Victor's arms, put her arms around his neck and said in a charming voice, "I must be your favorite woman. You are the only man I love at present..."

"What is the present?! will you fall in love with other men in the future?" Victor shouted angrily.

Sylvia kissed Victor's face, her star eyes closed slightly, and said with longing: "in the future, I will still love our son..."

"Well, that's acceptable." Victor touched his chin and nodded.

After a moment of tenderness, Victor turned back to the topic just now and said: "the key to the success of the secret method of spiritual blood lies in whether tophoven can develop a spiritual meditation medicine... I am optimistic about this... He has a very deep understanding of human blood, and his notes are very helpful for me to improve the secret method of spiritual blood."

Sylvia shook her head and said, "I don't think the secret method of spiritual blood will have much effect on the promotion of knights to the extraordinary field. According to the description of human blood by tofferwen, Knights' blood is one of hundreds of changes. Even with the help of spiritual meditation medicine, it is difficult for practitioners to pick out Knights' blood alone."

Victor's heart moved and asked, "have you tried?"

"Yes." Sylvia nodded and said faintly, "I can't see my blood, because I can't imagine the destruction of the element sea."

"... imagine the destruction of the element sea." Victor was stunned for a long time and said in distress: "you can't see it. The extraordinary knight can't see it... I'm not a knight, and I can't design the secret method of spiritual blood for the knight."

Sylvia frowned: "The secret method of spiritual blood provides a theory that ordinary knights and nobles can explore on their own. The silver blood of the Augustus family is relatively pure, so they can see their own Knight blood more easily, and there are tofu wizards nearby to observe and record... I think the Augustus family will soon create a set of secret method of Knight spiritual blood. The problem is, they won't take it Share the secret with us. "

Victor said happily: "a new theory needs someone to explore in different directions, so as to correct its mistakes and enrich its content. The knight's spiritual blood secret law is for the Auguste family to study. We focus on studying the spiritual blood secret law of ordinary soldiers and fierce fighters."

"Ordinary people and violent humans?"

"That's right." Victor smiled and said, "I'm very good at this field, and its prospect is also very broad. Fierce soldiers are naturally strong in mind and are easy to ignite the fire of mind. They have achieved some achievements in cultivating the secret method of mind blood and will not lose to Knights. There are a large number of ordinary soldiers. As long as they can improve their physical quality, they will gather more power than we can imagine."

Sylvia's eyes lit up and asked, "what kind of support do you need from Rose Manor?"

Victor said confidently, "I hope the pharmacists of York family can prepare auxiliary drugs that meet my requirements according to the research notes of toffervin. At present, they first focus on two aspects: deep sleep and enhancing digestion and absorption. In addition, the simpler the types of medicinal materials, the better, and the more common the types of medicinal materials."

"Good!"

Sylvia got up from Victor's leg, took his hand and said, "honey, let's change our war clothes."

"What are you doing?" Victor asked suspiciously.

Sylvia raised her mouth, outlined a sly smile, waved her fist in front of Victor's nose and said, "hit you!"

Victor's eyes flashed a golden streamer, instantly bounced up from the chair, smiled and said eagerly:

"Then try!"
