The Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 252 A capable person (bolt from the blue)

When Luther returned to Pompeii Castle, he immediately sent someone to take 50,000 gold coins from the family's treasury and sent a knight to Soren Castle.

Originally, Luther had spent most of the gold coins he got from selling ten snow-bright flowers, but in the last Red Dragon incident, Luther earned another 100,000 gold coins.

So now he can still take out 50,000 gold coins from the treasury.

Of course, after taking away 50,000 gold coins, the treasury was empty again.

After giving instructions on this matter, Luther came to the City Hall again.

If Viscount Silver Wing was killed by force, it would be a simple matter. Old Sol could do it himself, but the matter would definitely be exposed.

As the governor of Orange and the backing of all the lords, the Count of Libya would never allow such a thing to happen. After killing Viscount Silver Wing, he would face the Count of Libya's army.

But there are too many ways in this world to kill people without bloodshed. But those who are capable of using such means must be extraordinary.

You can't do it without any ability.

Luther is a capable person, but he needs to find another capable person to cooperate with in order to accomplish this task.

That is Lelouch.

After Luther arrived at the city hall, many officials greeted Luther. Luther still nodded slowly one by one, and then came to the mayor's office on the second floor.

The window was open, and the sun and wind came in from the window. But the sun also shone directly on the mayor's desk. Lelouch was not a knight, and he couldn't stand the heat, so he moved a chair and sat in the corner of the office.

"The office is very grand and big, but it's not so pleasant in the summer." Luther said to the embarrassed Lelouch with a smile.

Lelouch rolled his eyes, glanced at the opposite room and said: "I plan to open a small office opposite, work here in the morning, and work opposite in the afternoon, so that I can avoid this annoying sunlight."

In this respect, knights are much more straightforward than ordinary people. Even if Luther is exposed to the sun for a day, he will be fine.

"Or I can buy you some magic potions so that you can become a knight too?" Luther asked.

As long as you dare to spend money, a pig can become a knight, but such a knight has no fighting power. However, Luther thinks that it is worth spending this money on his mayor.

Only when Lelouch is fat and strong can he work better.

"Mayor's welfare? That's possible." Lelouch's eyes are bright. Then, Luther thought about how to buy potions from Mr. Tel.

Because the potions used by junior knights are different from those used by ordinary people, and the potions used by ordinary people may be more expensive.

Putting this matter aside for the time being, Luther said to Lelouch: "Help me investigate the Silver Wing Viscount Territory, finance, economy, politics, and all aspects."

Lelouch's two big mustaches moved slightly, and he looked at Luther meaningfully, and then asked: "How is Newton?"

Newton and Luther grew up together, and Lelouch is also familiar with him.

"That guy won't collapse so easily." Luther said.

"That's good. If the little fat man is unable to recover, it would be too tragic." Lelouch breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Okay, I will give you a detailed intelligence."

"But it is not an easy task to completely destroy his territory. It requires a lot of energy and certain political support. At least the Libyan Earl cannot interfere in this matter."

Lelouch obviously understood Luther's plan and said.

"Like someone, I went to the Golden City several times and accumulated some connections." Luther shrugged.

Lelouch's expression changed immediately. Luther was pointing at him. He went to the Golden City and was full of vigor and vitality, but eventually returned to Pompeii in disgrace.

He didn't want Luther to know about this dark past.

But now it seems that he didn't hide it.

"It must be Kuba, Brown, that talkative guy." Lelouch was very upset.

Then Lelouch's eyes turned slightly, revealing a slightly obscene smile.

A thief must be guilty.

A person who has bad intentions must not have a good expression.

Lelouch said: "Since you are so confident that I can collect intelligence, you must be confident that you can destroy his territory. If you can go one step further and kill the Viscount, then we can do something."

Luther sensed the deep meaning and narrowed his eyes and asked: "What?"

Lelouch stood up, very hot, and his heart was even hotter. He unbuttoned his shirt and said with a little interest: "Now the whole kingdom is covered by the shadow of the New Party. The Governor of Orange and the Earl of Libya must be in a mess. Because the New Party wants to take over Orange, it must kill the big figures such as the Earl of Libya and the Duke of Ferger. And we small people will be less affected, so we can take the opportunity to do something. The threat of the New Party is huge, and we can do something before that. If you can kill the Viscount of Silver Wing, then how about you become the Governor of Silver Wing Territory?"

Luther's eyes narrowed into a slit, as if he was an old fox. Luther said, "Lelouch, you are really bad."

"Same here, same here." Lelouch shrugged.

The topic ends here for now, because Luther starts to think about this matter.

Before that, Luther's plan was just to destroy the Silver Wing Viscount, making it impossible for the Silver Wing family to stay in the entire territory, and then take the opportunity to kill the Silver Wing Viscount.

Lelouch's plan is to go one step further and seek the Silver Wing Territory.

The Kingdom of Prussia is now at a time when the great nobles in the field and the great nobles in the court are competing with each other. The king's territory is very large, and the great nobles in the field are not bad either.

This led to a stalemate between the two sides.

The king has not established a new local noble for a long time, so how does he manage the territory?

The answer is to have a governor.

Within the king's domain, a province had a governor, and then various city lords. These governors and city lords are all powerful palace nobles, and they have no hereditary rights.

This concentrated power in the hands of the king.

It stands to reason that if Viscount Silver Wing dies, the son of the Viscount will inherit the title. Even if the whole family of Viscount Silver Wing is killed, the title will still fall to the descendants of this family.

This is the rule of the nobility.

The Count of Libya was the keeper of this rule.

Even if we take a step back, the title of Silver Wing Viscount has not been passed down. How could Luther become governor?

But now that the shadow of the new party cast its shadow over the entire Prussian kingdom, this became possible.

If a riot breaks out in the Silver Wing Viscount and the Silver Wing Viscount is killed, the strength of the Barton Territory will be greatly reduced. This is bad news for all the nobles in Orange.

If the new party rebels, the Silver Wing Viscounty and Barton Territory will be the hardest hit areas.

It takes a strong person to turn the whole situation around.

And the Pompeii family, with their great knights, has the ability to turn Kuangran back.

Although the governor was appointed by the king, Orange is now controlled by the big nobles on the ground, and the nominal consul is the Count of Libya.

If the situation is urgent, the consent of the Libyan Earl and other nobles must be obtained. Luther could become a free governor without allegiance to the king.

That's exactly what he said.

Kill people and kill clans.

Luther can not only kill the Silver Wing Viscount, but also hope to cut off the roots of the Silver Wing family.

Hey, what a retribution.
