Evil will not deceive you

"Things can't just be settled like this."

In the conference room, the old-school nobles were smoking pipes, their eyes full of dissatisfaction.

"We can pretend we didn't see the warden. After all, that guy is a two-faced guy. He has his own mountain, but his foundation is with us."

The speaker was the head of the Kurt family. He was a typical old-school lord. The territories of these lords were generally relatively wide. They were mainly engaged in the grain business and did not like merchants. They felt that merchants would bring changes and bring about changes. The people of his territory left the territory, and therefore, the relationship with the Holy Light Church was not very good.

But their power is very great, because their territory is very large and their family lines are very long, so the warden has to swing between the two sides because of his official duties, but they still regard each other as one of their own.

But what’s interesting is that the other side also regards the warden as one of their own.

Because the warden is willing to do business...

To be precise, he was willing to join the caravan so that he could spend more money.

But he also hates the Holy Light Church and feels that the Holy Light Church is used by the king to restrict and monitor them.

This is bad.

In the past, lords were still blamed for beating people in their own territory to death?

But since the Holy Light Church began to recruit apprentices on a large scale, no longer recruiting solely from nobles, but adding the children of soldiers and merchants, the lords could no longer kill people in their territories as they pleased.

Will be condemned by the Holy Light Church.

So those who didn't like the Holy Light Church gathered together to keep warm.

By the way, this camp is divided into several parts.

Some people feel that they can compromise with the Holy Light Church, but they don't like Terenas because they feel that Terenas will reduce their territory just like the Barov family.

Others feel that they can compromise. They do not resent Terenas' rule and feel that after merging with Lordaeron, they can get more benefits and marriage partners.

The other part of the Holy Light Church is absolutely uncompromising, and the same is true. Those who don't like Terenas feel that their territory will be reduced, while those who like it also find it acceptable.

However, not liking Terenas does not mean they will support Varian, although they have no choice now.

The faction that Ryan belonged to was almost as complicated as before, but they supported business, and their attitude toward the Holy Light Church was as ambiguous as those of the old school.

The reason for the fight between the two factions is also very simple: the new faction wants to go to the old school's place to do business and cut off the old school's leeks, but the old faction refuses to let it go and occupies a large number of positions in the public service system.

Therefore, when the warden died, they felt a fire in their hearts. Just because the warden really brought it upon himself, they could not continue to say anything.

Both the Warden and Ryan died for the same reason.

They want to break the pot.

Flip the table.

Naturally, the two factions want to kill people.

But the problem is that their old school killed an extra young man for the benefit of all the nobles.

"Although his death was self-inflicted, there is no doubt that two of us died, and their compensation was to allow those chambers of commerce to enter our territory."

After his words fell, a group of people snorted coldly.

"Then let them incite those workers to resist us? They don't even think about it. Now there is a bastard who is offering more than forty times their wages. After they incite them, those workers will join them as they think. A store?"

Another old man snorted coldly.

The reason why he doesn't like Li Ke is because of this. Whether it's free food or high-priced workers, the former is okay, that's what Varian should worry about, but the latter...

The latter is related to their interests.

In their workshops, workers do not need to be paid for their work, or they may be given a few copper coins as a token and a few meals. They can even save some more, and those who do not come will be hanged directly.

And those new-style nobles did almost the same thing, but they gave them symbolic money.

"No, no, my friend, they even call it a noble salvation, an effort for human rights, bringing the blessings of the Holy Light, but in reality, it is a denial of their own rights and treating the peasants as slaves."

A middle-aged nobleman sneered, then took out a collection of tobacco leaves from his box, rolled a cigar, and spoke.

“Although the people under our command have no money to work for us, as long as they are obedient and really fall ill and cannot afford to eat, we will take care of them and we will not let them starve to survive. But those people are different. They don't care whether the workers can afford to eat or not, whether there will be a plague, and even hand over the safety and management of most of the people in the territory to the Holy Light Church... They just need money. Look... Seriously, are these nobles? Do they really have the honor of being nobles? My friends."

The others shook their heads and laughed.

"Of course not. Nobles have responsibilities. We shoulder responsibilities. We are the ones blessed by the Holy Light."

Mr. Cote held his pipe in his mouth and shook his head.

"So we need to do something. What happened this time is really too strange. Whether it's the goblin, the warden, or Ryan's matter, it's all very strange. It's hard to say that they weren't fooling around. The result, because from the results point of view, they have the most to gain, they want to completely destroy the foundation of our kingdom and make us become cowards like them!"

"That's the truth. Everyone, we must fight back."

The other nobles also nodded. Their alliance this time was actually a tacit understanding. If they unite to raise food prices, they who have the most land will naturally take advantage. And those people also have We have to make money, so everyone unites.

But now that I've started to play dirty tricks, I'm sorry.

"Let them understand what nobility is!"

Kurt made the final decision, but at the same time, someone from another faction also made a similar judgment.

"Those idiots don't understand what development is at all. They completely treat farmers as farmers and are unwilling to pay them wages. They are not even willing to allow the Chamber of Commerce to move in! They simply don't understand what the glory of the Holy Light is. They don't understand what It’s called the responsibilities and rights of nobles! They will only guard what has been handed down from their ancestors and lie like moths on our kingdom!”

Cassis, the leader of the new nobles, waved his palms angrily, and in front of him was an excited crowd.

"Ryan's behavior is so strange! He is the same as the warden of their group! Everyone! The purpose of these two people is the same! They just want to subvert the civilized order we have established! The rights of orthodox nobles And glory! They want to destroy us! So—"

Fate played an interesting joke on these people. Now that the two groups of them were meeting at the same time, the two leaders also issued their own orders based on everyone's expectations.

Kurt roared out, Cassis slapped the case and got up.

"—Start the war!"
