Phoenix Grand Lord
Chapter 392 The Marquis and the Earl's reply
The situation afterwards was indeed as Luo Wei expected.
When Red Mountain Baron Falco Kidman saw the letter with extremely arrogant attitude, he was so angry that he trembled all over.
"Rovi Valentine, this little trash! He can't even keep his title, and he dares to speak like this to me, the baron!
"Okay! I'll write a letter to ask my uncle, Marquis. As long as my uncle nods, I will lead the troops in person, flatten the calendula and cut off Luo Wei's head!"
After saying that, Baron Falco immediately began to write a letter and delivered it through the family's emergency raven.
He really has no power to send troops unless the Marquis of the West agrees.
Soon, the Marquis of the West met Luo Wei's messenger and also received a letter from Baron Falco.
After reading the two letters, the Marquis of the West had a calm face, and his face was calm.
The Marquis of the West even gave Luo Wei's messenger a reward of 10 gold coins and asked Luo Wei's messenger to retreat and rest first.
It is obvious that the Marquis of the West is a great lord with a deep mind.
The Kidman family, the Marquis of the West, has managed the entire West, very well for several generations.
Not only has the economic level of the Western Frontier population and the taxation level have been greatly improved, the Marquis of the Western Frontier also merged many of the land populations of the small lords and small manors through a series of internal actions.
Today, the Kidman family's private territory has occupied more than half of the entire Western border.
Almost every count's territory has the power of the Kidman family.
The Kidman family is getting bigger and bigger, while the living space of the little lords of different surnames in the Western Region is getting smaller and smaller.
The Kidman family's goal was gradually placed on the Earl's territory.
As the private power of the Marquis of the Western Region expanded, Emperor Rice of the Soladin Empire also began to fear.
The national policy of Soladin's emperors in history was to express gratitude.
To put it bluntly, the so-called lords are asking the great lords to divide their territory to their sons, and then let their sons distribute their territory to their sons.
If the feudal continues like this, a large lord family will soon be divided and disintegrated. In less than 10 generations, the huge territory will be cut into independent small manors, and most small manor lords will have no titles to inherit.
Local separatism is the biggest enemy of centralization.
Only the smaller the aristocrat’s individual can the more stable the emperor can.
It is difficult for the little lords to form a joint force and to fight against the imperial power.
However, the Marquis of the Western Region has been continuously expanding the private territory of the large family for nearly a hundred years.
There were originally thousands of noble bloodlines in the Western Region, but now there are less than one hundred noble bloodlines left.
The fiefs of the Marquis of the Western Region were not only not reduced due to the refusal, but were increasingly concentrated.
Not only the western border, but also the northern border, the eastern border, and the southern border, there are also such signs.
Local separatist forces are becoming stronger, the little lords are annexed, and the imperial power is beginning to be challenged.
In fact, this situation is not unfamiliar to Luo Wei at all.
This is very similar to the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period in Chinese history.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, the Zhou Dynasty had many vassal states and small, so no matter how weak the Zhou emperor was, he could lead the family safely.
However, in the Warring States Period, there were only seven countries under the Zhou Dynasty but their national strength was strong, which directly threatened the Zhou Dynasty, which eventually led to the complete demise of the Zhou Dynasty.
In the Soladin Empire, Emperor Rice naturally understood that he could not make the local separatist princes bigger.
This is also why Emperor Rice had previously considered marrying Princess Lilian to the Western Region and gaining a relationship with the Marquis of the Western Region through marriage.
What Emperor Rice wanted to see most was that there were no great nobles, only small lords.
Marrying Princess Lilian to the West can first win over and appease the Marquis of the West, and secondly, we can also take the opportunity to let the Marquis of the West give his eldest son William a decent rank, and then divide the land in the West to William a large piece, thus achieving the goal of The purpose of Tuen'en's differentiation of the Kidman family.
The Marquis of the West was naturally very clear in his heart that His Majesty Emperor Rice was staring at their family.
Therefore, the Marquis of the Western Frontier was very cautious in every move and did not give Emperor Rice any chance.
The Marquis of the Western Region wanted to get the territory of marigolds.
After all, the most valuable business in the Soladin Empire is to sell half-elf slaves.
Especially those nobles who are decent, if there are not many half-elf female slaves in their homes, they will be embarrassed to go out.
Most of the half-elves live in the Aitken Kingdom outside the Black Moon Forest, while a small number live in the Purple Forest.
The purple forest collar is close to the purple forest, and behind it is the control of the Red Fei Earl.
As the marigold is close to the Purple Forest Collar. If the Red Mountain Collar is already under actual control, it will be easy to seize the Purple Forest Collar.
There is a mess in the marigold now, which is indeed a good time to start.
But the problem is that this kid Luo Wei actually has William’s black material in his hands!
It is very indecent to arrest civilians as slaves and sell them.
William is the future heir to the Western Frontier. If this kind of thing is spread, it will inevitably have a serious reputation impact.
It is also very likely to attract condemnation from other great nobles.
After thinking briefly for a while, the Marquis of the West Region wrote two reply letters by himself.
The first letter was written to the Baron of Hongshan. The Marquis of the West asked the Baron of Hongshan not to act rashly, without orders.
No war with the town of Calendula.
The second letter was naturally replied to Luo Wei.
In the letter, the Marquis of the West had a gentle tone, saying that those secret letter books were probably forged.
William wouldn't do that kind of immoral and indecent thing.
Then, the Marquis of Western Region changed his mind and said that everything was easy to discuss, not to mention that Luo Wei did have the blood of the Flor family. He supported Luo Wei to become the Baron of Marigold. As long as the Earl of Red Fei did not object, Luo Wei is the lord of the calendula.
After sending these two letters separately, the Marquis of the West urgently recalled his eldest son William, who was hunting outside.
At the same time, the Count of Red Fei also met the messenger sent by Luo Wei.
Luo Wei's tone in the letter also annoyed Earl of Red Fei.
The Calendula Collar was originally controlled by Count Red Fei. To put it bluntly, the Calendula Town is an important channel for Count Red Fei to transport half-elves from the Purple Forest Leader.
Now Edmund and his blood relatives are all dead, and the Count Red Fei's management of the Calendula Corps over the past 10 years has instantly disappeared!
Once the calendula falls into Luo Wei's hands, the half-elf slaves will not be able to transport it out.
What's more, Luo Wei is the eldest son of the Valentine family, and Luo Wei's existence itself poses a huge threat.
Luo Wei is strong and will definitely regain the Purple Forest Territory in the future.
What made Earl Red Fei even more troubled was that in the letter, Luo Wei clearly stated that if Earl Red Fei did not agree to give him the title of Baron of Marquis of the Calendula, then he would turn to the Marquis of the West.
Never once dared to threaten him like this!
What's more, Luo Wei is not a baron now! Just a small manor lord!
It is said that Luo Wei is a weak and incompetent little trash, but why is the first letter so sharp and arrogant, and with a strong murderous aura?
Earl of Red Fei could not understand the reason.
Earl of Red Fei knew that if Luo Wei really turned to the Marquis of the Western Region, then the marquis and Hongshan would be connected.
Hongshan can directly threaten his Red Fei City, while Marigolds can directly threaten the Purple Forest Collar.
The Marquis of the West would erode his Count's territory in one go!
Therefore, there are only two ways before the Count of Red Fei. One is to quickly capture the marigolds, kill Luo Wei, and actually control the marigolds. The other is to comfort and win over Luo Wei and promise to give Luo Wei the title of marigold Baron.
First, it is difficult for the Count of Red Fei to do it.
Although Earl of Red Fei still has a 500-man knight order and a magician, if you want to quickly attack the Marigold Territory, you can only use the Red Mountain Territory.
Hongshan Territory is also a marquis from the Western Region, so it is impossible to borrow the road.
There is another way to take advantage of the road, which is to attack the Calendula Territory from the Sunset Mountain Territory to the Cialis Valley from the direction of the Cialis Valley.
This road is not only long, but also Sunset Mountain has fallen and is not controlled by the Earl of Red Fei.
Even if he could pass through the Sunset Mountain territory safely, Miranden, the Viscount of the Broken Star River Mill, would not agree to the Earl of Red Fei to enter his territory.
After all, it is said that it is a way to borrow, who knows if he will do something else?
To take another step back, even if Miranden, Viscount of the Broken Galaxy Miles, agreed to borrow the way, the Earl of Red Fei was not sure of winning.
The continued elephant of the sky has caused panic among everyone.
The Count of Red Fei naturally did not believe the rumors, but he could not resist the lords and serf soldiers below.
Moreover, Rowe was able to kill all Edmond's army of 8,000 overnight, and even the level 7 magician Plank could not escape death. Captain Ryder and 50 supervising knights sent by the Earl of Red Fei were also The true strength of the entire army to destroy Yi Luo Wei must not be underestimated.
Therefore, even if Miranden agrees to borrow the road, this battle may not be easily won.
What's more, the Count of Red Fei is facing the threat of those crazy oracle believers in Sunset Mountain.
The appearance of the sky-climbing elephant made the oracle sect, which was originally at a disadvantage, become stronger instantly.
In addition to the sudden growth of Sunset Mountain Oracle Sect, the Earl of Red Fei is also worried that the Baron of Red Fei would hook up with Luo Wei and raid his Red Fei City.
Although the probability of such a thing is very small, the Earl of Red Fei has to be careful of it.
The most important thing at present is that Luo Wei cannot turn to the Marquis of the West.
After thinking for a long time, after weighing the pros and cons, Earl Hong Fei replied to Luo Wei in a very gentle tone:
“Dear Mr. Rovi Valentine, I want to congratulate you on winning this war.
“The marigold territory itself belongs to the Flor family, which we all know, and I always admit that.
“Ten years ago, the Marquis made the wrong decision to enfeoff the marigold territory to the betrayer Edmund Ross.
"Thanks to Genshin Impact, the mistakes over the past decade have finally been corrected. I support you very much in becoming the new generation of Marigold Barons, and only you are the only legal heir with Florid blood.
“I can help you submit your baron title to His Majesty the Emperor, and I believe that the great Majesty will agree to approve your baron title after reading my integrity statement.
"I hope we can establish a beautiful friendship between the nobles."
After writing this letter, Earl Hong Fei deleted and modified it, and finally made a letter with a lower attitude and returned it to Luo Wei's messenger.
The messenger did not dare to neglect it. After receiving the letter, he passed it back through the emergency raven.
That night, Luo Wei, who was enjoying lunch, received letters from the Marquis of the West and the Earl of Red Fei.
But Luo Wei was not in a hurry to disassemble it.
Since Luo Wei wrote to them, Luo Wei has guessed the content of their reply.
Merida and Rivenzhi next to him were very curious.
But Luo Wei was not in a hurry to see it, so they naturally didn't want to ask anything.
After Luo Wei finished supper, a maid from the mansion respectfully came to Luo Wei to serve with a washbasin soaked with a calendula petals.
Before today, the servants in the mansion had not yet officially started work. Now the situation of the marigolds has stabilized, and the servants began to return to the mansion to perform their duties.
Therefore, it was also the first time that Luo Wei felt the maid's marigold hand washing water.
Marigolds are relatively expensive and rare magic herbs, which have the functions of calming the mind, recuperating and lasting fragrance.
Many ladies in the imperial capital like to spray perfume made by spraying marigolds.
Looking at the golden water hand sanitizer, Rovey suddenly felt extravagant.
This basin of hand washing water probably costs at least seven or eight silver coins.
It was indeed the baron's treatment, and it was like this when washing his hands.
Luo Wei frowned and washed his hands, then said to the maid, "Just change it to ordinary water next time."
The maid looked at Luo Wei in a daze, and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
How can anyone not like to wash their hands with marigolds?
If you don’t wash your hands with calendula, then you still call me master?
The master will not wash his hands with marigolds in the future. How can they fish out the used marigolds and sell them secretly?
Rivenzhi frowned and said, "I won't retreat yet!"
The maid then quickly held the washbasin and carefully retreated.
Luo Wei wiped his hands, then slowly opened the letter, glanced casually, then smiled and threw the two letters aside.
Melissa couldn't help asking, "Lowei, what do they say? Do you disagree?"
"No, they all agreed."
"What?" Melisjo said in surprise: "Isn't this a good thing! Luo Wei! Congratulations on becoming the Baron of the Calendula!"
Luo Wei said, "It's not that simple. The verbal consent is just a delay. Without the specific official documents approved by His Majesty the Emperor, everything doesn't count."
Melisjo asked, “Can I read these two letters?”
Luo Wei nodded, "You are not an outsider."
Melissa suddenly blushed to the base of his neck, and then he used the letter to hide his shyness.
When Ruiwenzhi heard Mr. Luo Wei say that his master was not an outsider, he was immediately happy.
After reading the letter, Melissa couldn't help but smile, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really couldn't believe it. This is the reply from the Marquis and the Earl to you. How could their attitude be so soft?"
Luo Wei laughed, "Because I'm hard enough."
