After staying for a few days, when Liu Peng was a little impatient, Earl Dibbs seemed to have finally remembered such a person and summoned him before the dinner.

The one who came to inform him was a guard with a shiny silver knight sword on his waist. He had accompanied Christine to see her fiancé's knight order a few days ago.

But what surprised him was that the guard's sword hilt was backwards, which is a convenient posture for drawing a sword. Generally, the sword hilts of walking or riding cavalry are forward. This is what Christine's fiancé Suo Wei told him. .

If this Suo Wei was not so superior when he spoke, in fact, Liu Peng's sense of him would not be bad.

Walking in the middle of the road, Liu Peng suddenly said: "Knight, where is your third lady?"

He remembered that he hadn't seen Christine since the last time he visited the Sauvage Knights with her.

The knight just led the way in a muffled voice but didn't speak. There were only two people's footsteps on the corridor, and he didn't even see a servant along the way.

"Didn't we talk about holding a banquet today?" Liu Peng continued to ask, "Why is there no one there?"

The knight still didn't speak, until Liu Peng stood at the stairs and stopped moving forward, then the knight turned around: "Sir, the master is waiting for you in the banquet hall, please don't make them wait too long."

Looking at the expressionless knight, Liu Peng hugged his shoulders and thought for a moment: "Let's go!"

The two went up to the second floor, where four or five servants were waiting, all of them were male servants, their bodies were slightly bowed, as if they were waiting for their arrival.

"My lord, our camp is surrounded by cavalry. There are about [-] cavalry."

The voice sounded very suddenly, and Liu Peng was stunned, because the voice sounded from his mind, and it was none other than the Nord guard chief Gajegovich.

"I can hear your voice, Govic, what's going on?" Liu Peng pretended to rub his temples, and responded in the form of silent chanting.

"It's always been possible, because we were all summoned by you, and we can all sense it, but they can't speak." Gajegovic replied.

Liu Peng understood that those little soldiers couldn't respond because they couldn't take the initiative to speak. This time he tried to call out: "Silver Hook Assassin!"

"Master!" A silent male voice sounded.

Sure enough, these summoned people can rely on this communication!
"Govic, don't move. I'm going to meet this nobleman and see what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd." Liu Peng ordered.

"Yes, my lord, we use the defensive state." Gajegovic replied.

"Silver Hook Assassin, you hide and come out when necessary, understand?" Liu Peng continued to order, but the knight was already impatient: "Sir, please come with me quickly."

"Okay." After receiving the assassin's answer, Liu Peng hurriedly followed, and the knight announced inside and pushed open the door.

Liu Peng walked into the banquet hall, and it was another gorgeous dinner.

Hundreds of candles and oil lamps illuminated the hall brightly, and the floor was covered with a red velvet carpet inlaid with gold. On the main seat, Earl Dibs was chatting with Sauvy, who was standing in armor, and Wolff was holding a Wine glasses blowing at the window.

"Mr. Liu Peng, I'm glad to see you. I don't know how you've been doing these days." Harrigan, Earl of Dibes, raised a glass of wine as a gesture.

Liu Peng casually picked up a glass of amber wine and nodded: "Thank you for your hospitality, I think it's very good, and Lord Suowei's Knights are extremely brave."

"The territory has been busy these days, and I haven't taken care of Mr. Good. As the owner of the territory, I apologize." Harrigan said, "To express my apology and the kindness that saved our family before, I hope that Mr. can join our territory."

"It's my honor to be able to join Earl Dibis's command, but I would like to ask, how to join?" Liu Peng considered, if they have good intentions, if they have any bad intentions, then he will accept him as well. A man who sits and waits to die.

Harrigan put the wine glass aside, and said: "I have a manor in the northern city of Hull, and you will be the owner of that manor. There are probably dozens of freemen who are vassals of this manor, and they will work hard for you. Managed."

"Hmm... gone?" What about the title?Liu Peng is looking forward to a change in identity.

Wolf came from the side: "Mr. Liu Peng, it is very regrettable, because too many nobles participated in the rebellion, we are liquidating the assets of those people, and there is no way to entrust the new nobles immediately. If there is a chance in the future, we must give what should be given. "

"So there is no title, and only one manor is managed, that's it?" Liu Peng asked.

Count Dibis said with a smile: "Even a viscount is necessary for your achievements, but it's not the right time yet."

"That's right." No matter how big the empty check is, it's not as important as the real benefits. The nobles are just like what Lance said, no matter how much you do, people will not be in a good mood, and they won't be able to get a bite.

Not bothering to look at their reactions anymore, Liu Peng said: "Then I won't manage any manors. I will continue to do business. You can discount this. In order to save you, I have delayed too long."

"Mr. Liu Peng is leaving?" Earl Dibis's smile remained the same, but his tone was a little colder.

Liu Peng shrugged his shoulders: "What can I do if I don't leave? I open my eyes and close my mouth with hundreds of mouths to eat. I can't just open my eyes and close my eyes and stuff countless money into your pocket like everyone here?"

Wolff's expression changed, but Earl Dibs remained indifferent: "Since Mr. has made a decision, naturally we can't force those who have been kind to us, so Wei will send Mr. Liu Peng back to the room for me. Tomorrow, I will personally send Mr. you left."

"Oh, that's fine." Liu Peng waved his hand and turned around directly. After leading Suo Wei to follow him out of the hall, Wolfe couldn't help it.

"Father, why should you be so polite to him!" Wolfe was very dissatisfied, "Obviously we have planned everything, but he is just a stunned young man who came out of nowhere!"

Earl Dibis tapped the armrest with his finger: "Don't worry, you know, we were imprisoned by the traitor Hakura, how can we be rude to our benefactor? Proceed as planned."

Walking up the stairs, I was speechless all the way. The moment I was about to enter the door, Suo Wei held the door with his scabbard: "Be rational, don't do things that everyone doesn't like, I don't want to see Christine unhappy."

Liu Peng was silent for a moment, then glanced at Suo Wei: "Oh, nobleman."

The door closed with a slam, Suo Wei endured great anger not to kill the Cathayman inside, gritted his teeth and left here, he turned and came to Christine's room, where two guards were guarding the door .

"Master Viscount." The two guards saluted quickly when they saw Suo Wei.

Sauvy ignored them and pushed open the door. Christine was sitting in front of the dressing table in silk pajamas. Hearing the voice, she didn't look back: "This is not in line with noble etiquette."

"I know, I'll go to the earl to apologize later." Suo Wei said coldly, "He didn't promise our kindness, so we can only ask him to die."

"How could you do this!" Christine angrily smashed the jewelry box on the ground, all kinds of exquisite jewelry scattered on the ground, "He saved our family's life!"

"Don't you understand, this is all planned!" Suo Wei said impatiently, "Don't cause trouble for us because of this Cathayman, marry me with peace of mind, you will become an Aston Most noble lady in the county!"

"Plan? What plan!" Christine looked at Suo Wei, "You have to tell me."

Suowei took a deep breath: "Hakura's rebellion is the thread arranged by the earl. He wants to unite the Chamber of Commerce to eradicate those powerful nobles left by your grandfather's generation. I have been standing still just to see Hakura continue to connect up and down. , try to involve all the territorial forces."

"So it's like this..." Christine sat back on her seat feebly, "Then I'm also the father who fled..."

"No." The knight shook his head, "This is the result of that dark line's own assertion, otherwise it wouldn't lead to Liu Peng, an ignorant businessman, who actually took down the castle!"

"So you're going to annex his army, aren't you?" Christine murmured.

Suo Wei nodded: "Yes, it's unbelievable that he, a Cathayman, has five hundred elite fighters, and his origin is unknown. We have enough reasons to suspect that he is a foreign spy."

"Come on, I don't know if he is a spy?" Christine recalled the past few days. Not pretentious.

For the first time, she felt a little dislike for nobles, and she hated her own identity even more. Isn't nobles synonymous with integrity and kindness?
"Rest well, next month will be your coming-of-age ceremony, and I will formally propose to you at that time." Sauvy said before closing the door, "You will always be my Viscountess."

The waves beat against the rocks, Liu Peng looked at the dark beach, and heard Gajegovich's voice: "Master, what happened to you, there are more and more cavalry, and the entire camp has been surrounded."

"Don't resist, listen to what these guys want to do." Liu Peng knew that something big might happen tomorrow, and now he wanted to know their plan through Govic.

"My lord, they are here. They are the men who led us to attack the castle last time." Gajegovic said.

Liu Peng smiled, facing the dark night sky: "Don't talk, wait for them to talk, and then tell me."

After waiting for a while, Gajegovic's voice sounded: "He said that you have left the castle to go to the northern manor, and we will follow their orders."

Unexpectedly, this guy actually wanted to annex his own army, what a nobleman!
"Tell them that you are just mercenaries, and now it's just a cooperative relationship. If they pay enough, you can serve them."

Listening to Govic's words, Wolfe felt a little uncomfortable. These days, he can see clearly. How can mercenaries do such a forbidden army?

But everyone said so, Wolfe had to report to his father, Earl Dibis without any hesitation: "Gayegovich, right, I made him a Viscount, and his army was changed to the Dibis Guards, The treatment is the same as the price offered by the merchant."

It would be too wasteful not to change such a capable army to our own. Recently, pirates have become more and more rampant. In case of attacking coastal ports, it is safe to have such an army!
Liu Peng also learned of the earl's price from Gajegovich, signaled him to accept it, and then cooperated with him tomorrow.

"Silver Hook Assassin?"

"Master, I am here."
