The Extraordinary Earl

"I do have complaints against the Pompey family, but I can't do anything about the Barton family. Because the king has issued an official document recognizing Philip's succession to the baron title. According to convention, the Barton family will hold a large ball and invite the great nobles around us to attend the ball. The invitation arrived yesterday and the ball will be held tomorrow night. I don't have much time." Viscount Silver Wing said that when he mentioned the Pompey family, Viscount Silver Wing was still very resentful. But this resentment really couldn't be released. He could only complain privately and in public. It was impossible to really go to the Pompey family. One is that the Pompey family is really strong now, and a great knight has emerged. There are also rumors that the next generation of knights of the Pompey family went to the Golden City and entered the circle of the top rich people in the Golden City. They are very, very popular. Although Viscount Silver Wing thinks it is unlikely, it is mostly hearsay. Because even if he wants to enter the top rich circle of the Golden City, it is very difficult. Not to mention the heir of a rural knight lord family. But no matter what, the Pompey family is really very strong.

Besides, as a great noble of Orange, the strength of the Silver Wing family and the Barton family is not much different. He can't really deal with the Pompey family by bypassing the Barton family.

After all, the Pompey family is still a vassal of the Barton family in name.

Although the current Baron Philip probably can't command Sol, Pompey, the powerful knight.

I heard that the king has sent a private letter to Sol and Pompey, hoping to recruit Sol and Pompey to the capital and grant them the title of viscount.

Great knight.

Viscount Silver Wing felt a little sour. If he wasn't so fickle and put all his energy on women, maybe he would be a great knight now.

But on second thought, if he could return to his youth, Viscount Silver Wing would not choose to work hard to repair himself and work hard to take magic potions, and waste women.

If there is no fun in women, then what's the point of living longer and stronger?

"Do you want me to go with you?" asked Lady Elisa.

"Of course, how can I not have you on my journey?" Viscount Silver Wing chuckled.

Congratulations to the new baron, Baron Philip's succession. This is a formal social dance, and Viscount Silver Wing should theoretically bring his wife to attend.

But the Viscount is a willful and reckless person.

He brought his mistress.

Not long after, Viscount Silver Wing and Lady Elisa took a carriage and went to Kaiyue City under the escort of the family's knights.

When Viscount Silver Wing arrived at Barton Castle, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Mainly because Lady Elisa was a little uncomfortable on the way, Viscount Silver Wing was very sympathetic and asked the team to walk slowly.

"Hello, Mr. Viscount." Outside the castle, Baron Philip was dressed neatly and bowed to Viscount Silver Wing very politely.

In addition to the fact that the other party's title was higher than Baron Philip, because the other party was still a brother to his father, Baron Philip used to call the other party uncle.

"It's been a long time since I last saw you, Philip. I'm really sorry about Harry's situation." Viscount Silver Wing naturally showed a little sadness and hugged Baron Philip.

It was a little fake, but very qualified.

"Thank you, Mr. Viscount." Baron Philip also said in a proper manner. Then Viscount Silver Wing was led by Philip to the living room on the second floor of the castle for reception. In addition to Viscount Silver Wing, a great noble, several other nobles had already arrived.

Everyone was familiar with each other and soon started chatting.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Among the nobles present, Earl Windsor and Viscount Silver Wing were a little at odds.

Mainly because Viscount Silver Wing was very romantic, Earl Windsor suspected that his wife had an improper relationship with this guy, but he had never caught the handle.

For the real nobles, this kind of green hat is a very shameful thing.

Earl Windsor is in his fifties and has passed his prime, but as a senior knight, Earl Windsor still looks very young, with bright eyes and looks energetic.

As for the Countess of Windsor, she is a beautiful woman in her thirties.

The two are an old man and a young wife.

"The Pompeii family has been very popular recently. Not only have they been recruiting workers in several nearby territories, but some large factories have also moved to Pompeii because of the housing prices and tax benefits in Pompeii. For example, the Habsburg family moved their factories to Pompeii. I have also heard that the next generation of Pompeii knights have a lot of connections in the Golden City. Seeing a top knight family rising up, even us, the great nobles, may have to bow our heads slightly to show respect."

Earl Windsor knew about the Habsburg family and knew that Viscount Silver Wing often complained in public, so he deliberately spoke loudly.

The other great nobles smiled but said nothing. They also knew about the dirty deeds of Earl Windsor and Viscount Silver Wing.

However, they guessed that this should be Earl Windsor's suspicion, because no matter how romantic Viscount Silver Wing was, he would never have an affair with the wife of a great noble. It was exciting, but if it happened, there might be a war.

Even the Count of Libya may not be able to stop such a war.

But then again, the Countess of Windsor is really beautiful. She has long been known as the most beautiful woman in Orange and has remained so for a long time.

Viscount Silver Wing certainly did not have an improper relationship with the Countess of Windsor. He just had several contacts with the Earl of Windsor when he was young.

This old guy.

Things that don't happen always bother me.

If I have a chance, I must try your wife.

Viscount Silver Wing was very angry about this. He said in a mean tone: "No matter how much the Pompeii family behaves, it is just a family of knights. The knight lords are vassals of the great nobles. And now that the Pompeii family has great knights, maybe the next generation will The Pompeii knights also have talents, but they cannot guarantee that they will produce great knights from generation to generation. When their family does not have a great knight, it will decline. "

"Our big nobles on the ground are different. As long as Orange remains stable, we can continue for generations."

"Mr. Viscount, are you jealous?" Earl of Windsor successfully teased Viscount Silver Wings and smiled happily.

"What do I have to be jealous of? I will not be jealous, nor will I bow my head to a knight family. But Mr. Count, should you take your wife with you, humbly visit the Pompeii family, and lower your head? ?”

Viscount Silver Wing said tit for tat.

"I heard that the Knight of Pompeii was also a very romantic man."

Viscount Silver Wing finally came with a last hit.

The implication is, you old guy, take your wife to honor the Knights of Pompeii.

This made the Earl of Windsor extremely angry, because he really cared about his wife. But just when the powder keg was about to be ignited, a big noble on the ground came out to smooth things over.

"Okay, gentlemen. Today is the ball held by Baron Philip, the new baron of the Barton family, to celebrate his becoming the new baron. We must maintain the most basic respect for the Barton family."
