Release that Witch
Chapter 191: New king's tooth
Pei licked the lipstick tea and leaned back on the soft chair of the lord.
It has been more than two months since the takeover of the Long Song Fortress, and he has found himself more and more like this hall. The step-by-step structure that allows him to stand from the main seat overlooking the officials and attendants standing underneath, the feeling of being in the grip makes him satisfied.
In the first month, there will be some small aristocrats jumping out to openly question themselves, or secretly planning riots and the like. Of course, the behind-the-scenes characters who provoke them are from the elk and the big family of the wolf. Pei listened to his father's suggestion, and sent all the civilians or underground mice without the title to the gallows. The small nobles with the title were imprisoned and deported from the West after the family paid the ransom.
This set of Thunder means, the situation quickly subsided. After all, except for the honeysuckle family, the knights of other people have been arrested in Bianbu Town, and it is impossible to resist Pei’s policy from the bright side. Afterwards, he divided the interests of the fortress into a part of the compensation for the loss of the big family at the time of arrest, so that all the nobles temporarily formed a relatively stable interest group.
At present, only 30% of the income of the fortress is paid to the border town, and the remaining 70%, 30% is used to maintain the city's operation, 20% to appease the rest of the nobles, and the Helmond territory to get the remaining 20%.
Today, the portrait hanging behind the Lord's seat was replaced by the four princes Roland Wimbledon, and he looked forward to one day hanging up his portrait of Pero Hermon.
If you can have a long song fortress completely, your own count will be able to connect with the fortress and become a veritable duke territory. The 50% of the payment and appeasement can also be saved and invested in the trade of the fortress, in exchange for more rich. s return.
Of course, the premise is that Roland can successfully climb the throne and become the king of the entire gray castle.
"Adult," a guard went into the hall of the lord and handed a letter, "It is news from Bianbu Town."
Hearing the word Bianbu, Pei immediately sat up straight.
He took the envelope and flattened the thin papyrus. It can be seen from the inferior paper. The letter comes from the eyeliner he placed in the serf team.
The result of the battle more than two months ago was incredible. Although Pei did not go in person, he heard a bizarre story from his father's mouth. In order to understand the reasons for the failure of the Duke, he arranged a lot of confidants in the hands of the town, they disguised as craftsmen, herders or serfs, and sent the information they saw back to the fortress.
He believes that other families will certainly do the same.
But so far, apart from the fact that the two men who pretend to be serfs are still sending new information every month, the craftsmen and herders have no news, as if they have disappeared.
In the end, did they betray themselves or were they discovered by the prince?
He shook his head and focused on the secret letter.
The contents of the letter were written by charcoal pens, and the words were twisted and twisted. In some places, there were traces of water immersion, which appeared to be sneaked down during work.
The first paragraph said that an unidentified iron tower was being built on the bank of the Chishui River. A huge iron can is stacked on top of the tower. At present, three erects have been erected, each of which is close to the fortress wall. The blacksmiths seem to have finished the production of the tower in the town, and when it was transported to the river, it was a whole. Then there will be a first army soldier standing upright around the tower, and by the next day, it will stand up magically.
Construction... This is the word again. Pei Luo thought, the last secret letter is also like this. If you look at the information, you feel that the prince is building the town constantly. The last time was the road repairing bridge. This time it was the iron tower. Is it necessary for His Royal Highness to take all the golden dragons that have been searched from the fortress castle for a sigh of relief? Moreover, the tower is still unclear... It is necessary to know that the spies in the hidden serfs are not true serfs, but rather well-informed guards. If it is a sentry tower or an arrow tower, he will be able to see it at a glance.
Probably the tower has not been completely completed, it is not easy to judge, Pelos shook his head, perhaps waiting until next month there will be more detailed information.
He moved his eyes to the next paragraph.
The letter stated that a large-scale merchant fleet left the town after a week of staying at the town pier, and its ownership was unknown. Large piles of ore and saltpeter were removed from the ship during the stay.
Buying saltpeter is easy to understand. It will become very hot in the second month of summer. The castle needs a lot of saltpeter to cool down. It can also be used to refrigerate drinks and juices. As a royal aristocrat, it is definitely not willing to let yourself sweat all day long. It is as embarrassing as the farmer in the field.
However, the purchase of the ingots made Peero feel a little surprised. Bianbu Town was the origin of the ore. I remember that before the demon moon, when he went to the town as a messenger, Prince Roland exaggerated the words, doubling the total amount of ore sold. As a result, instead of exporting ore, it is necessary to import ore.
Reminiscent of the tower in the last section of the fortress and the wall of the fortress, he found that he was more and more confused about what the Prince had wanted to do.
However, when Pei looked at the last paragraph of the secret letter, he suddenly stopped.
In the last two weeks, Bianyi Town held several open-air drama performances in the square?
No tickets are accepted, the name of the play is unheard of, and serfs are encouraged to watch. What surprised him the most was that the performers had a star of the West, Miss Mayi, who had not been known for a while!
What's happening here?
The disappearance of Mey was a big news of the recent fortress, and several plays that had supposed to be starred by her changed the female horn. The nobles left the party to protest. The theater had to issue a notice stating that Mey had left the theatre without anybody’s account and that his whereabouts are unknown. When the news came out, the aristocrats who loved drama in the West were suddenly lost.
As a result, she ran to Bianbu Town? There is no theater there! And to perform for civilians and serfs... It’s hard to imagine such a scene in Pei’s mind. Miss Mey, who is impressed by him, is not an approachable actor.
Considering it over and over again, he decided to write a letter to His Royal Highness Roland and formally ask him about it. As a drama lover, I haven't seen the wonderful performance of the Star of the West for a long time, and even the chance to invite Shirley is much less. Since the drama was performed publicly in the town square, it was not surprising that it was seen by the dealers. It happened that the dealer came from the long song fortress, so the news was introduced into his own ears and should not be exposed to the hidden slaves. Kissing.
Just as Peer was preparing to let the attendant draft the essay, a knight walked into the hall and hurriedly said, "The adults, the guards of the East Gate Tower, found that a team of knights are approaching the fortress!"
"Knight? Can you tell where it came from?" He suddenly stood up.
"The other side is holding a high-tower double-gun flag, adults," the Cavaliers replied. "If it is not impersonation, they should be the new king's troops." (To be continued.)
