I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law
Chapter 84 Provocation
Now is an extraordinary period. Soldiers and civilians eat the same thing, flour, pickles, and porridge made from chopped dried meat. Even Aimee eats this. Bennett eats a little better because Sera hunts for him.
Aimee and Sera asked for half of the prey and gave it to the cook, asking him to give it to their mother Anna as a snack. Aimee also knew that Kenny was not used to the rough food in the army, so she asked someone to give him some meat. After the lord was gone, she attached much more importance to family affection.
Brent went to Kenny again. He didn't believe that Kenny really had no thoughts at all, but was just blinded by emotions.
This time he brought the fine wines that he had hidden at the bottom of the supply truck. He wanted to change Kenny, and these fine wines would definitely be a killer.
When I entered Kenny's tent, I saw a plump hind leg, but Kenny was not there.
Brent's meal tonight is the rough military food. This is the order given by Aimee. Everyone is equal during special periods. Now it seems that this is bullshit. Brent swallowed his saliva. Even the fallen Kenny eats so well. The luxurious scene of Aimee eating delicacies from land and sea flashed through his mind.
(Aimee and Sera, who were squatting among the soldiers and drinking porridge from big bowls, said: ??? What the hell are you talking about? It’s your mother’s fault!!!)
This day will definitely come, Brent thought secretly, and a 'I'm doing this for your own good' smile appeared on his face again.
Kenny came back from outside. He had just chatted with his mother and had dinner together. Although his mother was not in a good mood, she still ate some food.
Kenny was very happy. Without the lord, the atmosphere at home felt much better, and even his mother smiled at him more often.
Kenny felt better when he returned to the tent and saw Brent. He was the only knight who chose to follow him and would be his right-hand man in the future. Now that the lord was gone, his family and friendship were all back.
This world is so beautiful.
Kenny looked at the smiling Brent, walked to the main seat of the tent, and said proudly, "Come here, Brent, this is the deer leg that Aimee brought for me. Knight Serra just brought it today, so it's fresh."
Brent looked at the sizzling deer leg on the fire, and the anger in his heart sizzled along with it, but the smile on his face became even brighter.
He took out the wine flask from behind and handed it to Kenny with a smile, just like two good brothers secretly exchanging resources.
"I specially hid this red wine from the King's Manor in the capital, hehe."
Kenny's eyes lit up. He was already in a good mood today, and now he was in a better mood. When he went to war with the lord, he ate the rough food in the army. Now, what did he eat? Barbecue and wine.
"Hahaha, that's great, Brent, you're going to eat with the army tonight. Come on, let's not go home until we're drunk tonight."
Brent's heart was filled with anger again, but the angrier he was, the more fawning and ingratiating he looked. He was old enough to be Kenny's father, but he kept praising Kenny with a flattering face.
Kenny didn't think there was anything wrong. He was a nobleman, so what were knights? They were his subordinates, and what were subjects? They were the wheat straw grown by the nobles.
As a noble, shouldn't people's praise be his due? Under Brandt's continuous flattery, Kenny's mentality became more and more inflated.
After drinking more than thirty glasses of wine, both of their faces turned slightly red. People at this time will become very strange. They are very sober, but they are easily emotional.
Looking at Kenny, who was arm in arm with him, Brent knew that the time had come: "Isn't the young lady with you?"
Kenny's smug look froze on his face in an instant, he was just bringing up things that were out of the ordinary, but this was exactly the effect Brent wanted. If he wanted to get Kenny to take action, he had to sow discord between him and his family, and Helen was the eternal thorn in Kenny's heart.
Kenny fell silent, and the meat and wine in his hands suddenly lost their flavor. He had tacitly agreed to let Helen and Bennett get together before the wedding, and the same was true for others. No man could ignore Helen.
Kenny felt the same way, but this made him even more annoyed because the more beautiful Helen was, the less likely it was that she and Bennett were innocent, and beauty was the best evidence.
His face turned increasingly blue, and Brandt's heart began to beam with joy; this was exactly the effect he wanted.
But family ties cannot be destroyed by one Helen alone, so he has to continue to add fuel to the fire.
"Alas." With a pretentious sigh, Brent began his performance: "Kenny, I also heard about Helen's situation. You were wronged in this matter."
Kenny took a sip of red wine, his mind became more and more confused, and his mood became more and more explosive.
Brent added fuel to the fire with a serious tone: "Kenny, I think the old lord is wrong in this matter. When the old lord was here, we didn't say anything, but now that the lord is gone, there must be an explanation for this matter."
If Kenny was in a rational state, he would definitely feel that something was wrong with this sentence, but now he had just been awakened from his complacent state and was furious. Now after hearing this sentence, he directly began to blame the lord.
"Damn it, I don't know what my father is thinking. Isn't this ruining my reputation?"
Brandt was now completely relaxed, and the idiot on the opposite side started to attack and give him the final blow.
"Kenny, Helen is not coming back. We..."
"Who wants her? She's disgusting and dirty. I will have my own wife in the future. As long as I go to the battlefield, I will definitely conquer a territory."
Looking at Kenny's throbbing veins, Brent almost laughed out loud.
He quickly pulled Kenny's arm and said earnestly:
"Kenny, you are still too young. You can't just let it go like this. Think about it, what was your father's status when he went to the battlefield? What about you now? You need to have soldiers. Without soldiers, we will just be cannon fodder on the battlefield."
Kenny is emotional now, but he is not brainless. He knows that there is nothing wrong with what Brent said, but he has no way. Or rather, there is a way, but he doesn't think about it.
Kenny was silent.
There was a hint of teasing in Brent's eyes, and his contempt for Kenny deepened. He said again earnestly:
"I know you want to save face, but face can't make us go to the battlefield and become cannon fodder. Go find Aimee and ask her to exchange Helen for half of her soldiers."
Kenny's eyes began to evade, and he said in an erratic tone: "Those soldiers still have to protect the people, they can't give them to me now."
"Can't I give it to you now? Can I give it to the Grand Duke when we get to his territory? Are you lower than those peasants?"
Are you lower than those peasants? Why didn't the lord pass the position to Kenny? On the wedding night, Kenny asked the lord why he gave the cloak to Aimee. The lord said:
"You don't have your subjects in your heart. Become a knight or go out and develop your own territory."
I am a nobleman. Why should I care about those peasants? Ai Mei, you must understand me. You are also a nobleman. I loved you the most when we were children.
Kenny's eyes flickered with hope.
"You're right. I give Helen to her and she gives me soldiers. We have such a good relationship. She won't ignore me."
After saying that, he walked out of the tent drunk.
Brandt looked at Kenny going away and finally couldn't help but sneer on his face. How could Aimee give him soldiers at this time?
The first step of provocation is completed.
