Wizard Lords: Building an Empire starts from the panel
Chapter 261: Title
Levi seemed to be completely free of suspicion. After all, the blame for Flora's murder must now be pinned on the maid or Wizard Perrin.
And just like Yelena said, Levi had no motive or courage to commit the crime. However, since the maid and Wizard Perrin were dead and had no evidence to prove, the investigation reached a deadlock.
As soon as Marquis Ashan received the news of Flora's accident, he dropped all the work at hand and rushed to the royal capital as quickly as possible.
When he arrived at the Wizards Association Wizard Tower, it was already the fourth day.
"Duke, I need an explanation." Marquis Ashan's eyes were red. It only took him a day and a half to get to the royal capital from Snow Dragon Fortress, which was also a big burden for a strong man in the sanctuary.
"I am also responsible for this. You don't have to thank me. This is my duty."

As for the behemoth that is the royal family, it has an astonishing sixty votes.
"Okay, I'll try my best, I'll just trouble you during this time."
"There is a quick and easy way, but it will seriously damage Flora's talent potential, so I don't recommend you choose it."
"Some of them are probably nonsense."
The majestic parliament hall seemed a bit noisy at this time. Hundreds of nobles or noble representatives gathered in this hall.
The senior Viscount not only has three votes in each vote, but can also express his own opinions or opinions.
"I don't know, maybe three to five days, maybe a month. What we have to do now is to stabilize Flora's condition. If possible, I suggest you borrow their heirloom from the Marquis of Burgundy. Eternal Ice Coffin.”
Of course, the influence of the royal family and the big nobles goes far beyond that, and the small and medium-sized nobles who are attached to them will also follow their eldest brother when voting.
Seeing that Marquis Ashan was noncommittal, the staff said again: "In addition, there is a lot of controversy over the location of the nobility of the Second Southwest Realm who participated in the war. Some people think that the Nobles of the Second Southwest Realm who have obtained sufficient military exploits this time should be enfeoffed nearby, and their own territory The closer, the better.
First of all, the great nobles of the kingdom, as vested interests, naturally do not want anyone to join the team of cutting the cake, so the promotion of every great noble faces endless resistance. It's much easier to pull people down than to push them up. At this time, those big nobles with limited strength will always tacitly try to stumble people.
However, every actual earl, as a great noble, firmly controls a county and is considered a member of the core ruling group of the kingdom.
According to the May 95st promotion law, Li Wei is indeed only a few baronies away from the earl. It is like the progress bar has reached %, and he is only one step away from the final step.
These are the big forces and figures in the kingdom. For them, it is very easy to earn a viscounty if they have enough capital.
"I was careless. There are some people with ulterior motives lurking in the wizard tower. They poisoned her quietly. If Levi hadn't happened to see Flora being poisoned, Flora would have been in trouble."
"Is there any way to cure Flora now?"
The Baron, who stood tall in front of ordinary people, was directly reduced to the lowest level in this parliament hall. They did not even have the right to express their opinions and could only participate in voting.
"By the way, Lord Marquis, we just received news from the parliament. Starting tomorrow, the last review for military merit and knighthood will be conducted in the next three to four days. And tomorrow is the review for military merit and knighthood of viscount and above. Then you tomorrow"
"Has anything noteworthy happened in the capital in the past few days?" As soon as Marquis Ashan sat down, he summoned the staff in the mansion who were responsible for collecting intelligence about the capital.
"Okay, Your Majesty."
"Yes, during this period, many people have been clamoring, saying that it is only fair that Baron Monterey should be made an earl in one step for his military achievements." The staff laughed and said this outrageous rumor.

"Nonsense?"
In fact, this also reflects the bold and pioneering character of the Fontaine Kingdom. No matter how good the defensive battle is, you may not be able to win the position of earl, but once the external expansion is successful, great nobles will gather together and emerge.
There is an unwritten rule in the kingdom that each border county is only allowed to have one big noble family. Now there are big nobles in the twenty-two border counties of the kingdom. In other words, a carrot and a pit, even if Li Wei's military achievements are really sufficient, there is no place for him.
"how long it takes?"
Today is the review and voting for the military title of viscount and above. Of course, all the nobles believe that the so-called viscount and above refers to just viscount, and there is no possibility of being awarded the title of earl.
"Okay, please step back."
More importantly, there is currently no suitable border county in the Fontaine Kingdom as Li Wei's fiefdom.
Any more? "
Not to mention that Li Wei was really close to being promoted to earl. Even if Li Wei really met the standard, he would be carefully observed under a magnifying glass by the great nobles and they would try their best to make the matter of his promotion into a dubious matter.
"The hottest topic in the capital recently is the topic of military merit ennomination. There are rumors that our Ashan family is expected to obtain a hinterland county viscounty again this time."
Above that are the great nobles. The earl has nine votes and the marquis has twenty-seven votes.
Baron Monterey has indeed made great contributions in this war. According to the internal calculations of the Marquis Palace, Baron Monterey should be able to collect four fourth viscounties at once this time, plus one or two baronies. He is indeed far away from the count. It's only one step away.
In the evening, the usually resolute and steady Marquis Ashan returned to the Marquis's residence in the royal capital with a look of unbearable weariness.
As time passed, fiefdom plans such as the Ashan family's new hinterland county viscounty, Grand Duke Soros's hinterland county viscounty, and Earl Sneed's new viscounty in the newly expanded five counties of the West were also finalized one by one.
Some people say that there is no idle space and land in the second southwest border. If the second southwest border is awarded a title for military merit, the fiefdom should be placed in the northern border, or in the five newly expanded counties. "
------------
"Hmph, it's just mixed with sand, but I don't know if they will still cling to their status as a noble of the second realm in the southwest after coming here.
"What about a way that doesn't damage Flora's talent potential?"
"Well, go and help me prepare. I will attend tomorrow."
But this final step is destined to be a natural chasm that cannot be bypassed.
Later, the famous Koslow family actually acquired the first subcounty after hundreds of years of silence, which couldn't help but liven up the atmosphere in the parliament hall.
The Koslow family is the representative of countless small nobles. There are more baronies from generation to generation, but they are unable to be promoted to viscount and have always been stuck at the bottom of the aristocratic system.
Taking advantage of the warm atmosphere, Earl Langton, who has always been regarded as the "royal white glove", took the stage. One of his proposals directly caused the entire parliament hall to explode.
