The Sun King's Evidence

The serf household registration redemption system has been trialled in the Earl of Glamorgan in Lane and the Principality of Winford in Francois. All serfs who have accepted the conscription have gained the right to redeem their serf household registration.

The announcement of this treaty brought hope to the whole of Britannia. People rejoiced, thinking that this was another gift from the fairy of the lake to mortals. Coupled with the influence of the investiture ceremony of the Old Guard, serfs in the entire kingdom finally Beginning to believe that they might actually be able to successfully change their destiny and become master knights.

In the first month since the order was promulgated, nearly a thousand households of serfs in the Principality of Winford redeemed themselves. They came to Francois' Duke's Castle and handed over a lot of gold coins. Under the witness of the Lake God Prophet, They received certificates of redemption and became freedmen from then on. These freedmen were quickly received by Francois. The Duke himself received these new freedmen one by one in an elegant and enthusiastic manner. His court held grand banquets one after another and set up large-scale reception ceremonies to thank them for their contributions to the principality and the ducal family over the years, and then promised that although you have become free people, I And my city and my principality will always welcome you.

These free people are really touched. As a descendant of "Pure" Redmond, one of the first twelve Holy Grail Knights, a high-ranking Holy Grail Knight in the Holy Realm, the noble Duke actually pays so much attention to us mud-legged people. Treated with courtesy, the free people present cried bitterly, knelt down and worshiped, and almost all of them stayed in the Principality of Winford. Some of them worked in workshops, some became freelancers and shopkeepers in the towns, and many others A few people chose to contract some wasteland from Francois and recruit their own manpower to open up estates for farming. These people no longer needed to be levied tithes, but instead only had to pay shield taxes (that is, military protection fees) and tithes. One tax, rich peasants who own part of the means of production.

Relying on the large amount of labor provided by these freedmen, François followed Lane's approach and promoted industrialization with good results.

At the same time, Francois also formed the Unicorn Guards based on the former Winford Fugitive Regiment and promised that there would also be knighthoods waiting for him, triggering an entire wave of enthusiastic participation in the army.

Class boundaries began to blur. As a beneficiary of the redemption system, Francois received a ransom of more than 30,000 gold crowns from these free people. This money made Francois smile. After all, even if he The Holy Grail Knight will not mind having more money.

Similarly, Ryan's territory also received a ransom of more than 10,000 gold crowns. The gold and silver treasures in the vault of the Duke's Castle were too piled up. Sulia and the Lake Fairy were therefore in a very happy mood and often held hands together. Start counting the savings in the treasury.

This reform has progressed to this extent. Seeing Francois enjoying huge dividends, several dukes who openly or covertly supported Lane have begun to become restless. Lane has long expected that they will come to him. As for Ka The reason why Duke Hubbard of Carsonne did not come is also very simple. The Principality of Carcassonne is really poor, and it also faces great military pressure. From a certain perspective, Duke Hubbard's support is a kind of " In exchange, he supports the reformist nobles led by Lane + the Fairy of the Lake Church, and Lane will continue to provide him with military and material support.

It is worth mentioning that Morgiana faithfully performed her duties. When a new freeman had a conflict with an old knight and was beaten for no reason, Morgiana ruled against the knight in the church court and compensated him. Fifty gold crowns and a public apology, the way the Lady of the Lake Church handled the situation gave the serfs a shot in the arm. They were no longer private property to be exploited by human beings, they were free!

Lady bless Brittania!

The Church of the Fairy of the Lake also benefited from the redemption system, and the redemption amount was also subject to tithes. From this alone, Morgiana gained nearly five thousand gold crowns.

After Ryan, Morgiana and others reunited, they were still quite far away from their Duke's Castle, but Teresa's wizard tower had already arrived. A large area of ​​​​area had been formed near the seven-story wizard tower. At the manor, Ryan hesitated for a moment, then asked Theresa: "Theresa, do you and Ms. Aurora want to go back to the Duke's Castle with us?"

"No, my mother and I need to deal with the squeezing thing first, and we will meet you in a few days. We will say goodbye here." Teresa shook her head, and the sorceress rode the mixed elf war horse Laurel to Ryan's house. Next to him, he kissed me gently: "You should go back first."

"Okay." Ryan didn't say anything else. He simply agreed, and at the same time gestured towards Aurora. However, the Holy Witch became very hostile to him for some reason, and just snorted as a response.

Ryan asked for trouble, he shrugged, and then said to Morgiana: "Let's go."

After meeting Morgiana, Ryan originally wanted to leave the Chalon Forest and rush to his Duke's Castle before nightfall, but Morgiana seemed to have discovered Ryan's thoughts. The Lake God Witch said that the two of them must go to the Chalon Forest. The holy place in the middle, the Lily Island where the Lake Fairy came to stay and pray. Due to Morgiana's insistence, Ryan's trip was slightly delayed. When his army finally left the Chalon Forest, it was already dusk, and Ryan saw this Simply disband the army, and then head to the nearby Red Fish Village with Morgiana and enter Angron's manor to spend the night.

When we entered the manor, the sky was already dark and it was still snowing. The livestock were hiding in the corrals for the winter. There was almost no one in the manor during the off-farm season. Ryan's leather boots and Morgiana's soft-soled boots were on the ground. There was a rustling sound above, and the cold wind blowing in the face gave people a chilling feeling.

"I don't know if my brother is here." Ryan led Morgiana into the manor: "But no matter what, we have a place to stay, which is good. I didn't expect you to come."

"Her attitude is too bad." Morgiana followed Ryan, and the Lake God Witch said meaningfully: "Lian, you are the lady's chosen champion, she can't treat you with this attitude, if you need to……"

"I know what you want to do, Morgiana." Ryan turned his head, and Morgiana followed him. The Lake God Witch's face was filled with a kind of complacency, and she also dismissed the Holy Grail guards. If If there weren't a few people in the manor, she would definitely come up and hold Ryan's arm: "Isn't it okay? There are many things in the church that are designed to deal with witches. You take her into the tower and give her a month or two. I promise to hold this Holy Domain witch and make her kneel in front of you obediently. This is my territory and she is no match for me."

"...I don't want to discuss this matter anymore." Ryan squinted at Morgiana. How could he not know that Morgiana was seeking revenge?

Seeing that Ryan didn't want to talk anymore, Morgiana had many thoughts in her mind. She nodded and seemed to give up.

"Brother? Are you there?" Ryan turned around and didn't see Angron, so he had to shout loudly.

"Brother? I'm here." Angron's voice came from a farm. Ryan opened the farms, and the oncoming smell made Morgiana frown her golden eyebrows.

In the open space inside the farm, Angron was petting the tiger.

The huge saber-toothed tiger was lying on the ground, with its belly exposed to Angron, making a purring sound and rolling around on the ground. Angron stretched out a hand on the saber-toothed tiger's chin and belly with great interest. It was caressing it back and forth. It was obvious that the saber-toothed tiger looked like he was enjoying himself with his eyes narrowed. He was purring and humming, and his tail was standing up and wagging from side to side. Angron was feeding it with cut boiled meat. He heard Ryan and Mo When Jaina came in, Angron didn't even raise his head: "You're back, brother? I've been cleaning up your room. Do you want to have dinner?"

"No, I've already had dinner. I just came to say hello to you." Ryan tried to get closer. The saber-toothed tiger immediately turned over and looked at Ryan with vigilance, and also showed his fierceness. expression.

"Then you should have a good rest. I also know what happened recently." Angron slapped the saber-toothed tiger. The giant beast that was so majestic just now whined after being slapped. It screamed in grievance, and then started again. Lying down, he exposed his belly again and let Angron scratch it. At the same time, he also asked him to help comb his hair: "Brother, cheer up, Tzeentch's conspiracy will not be so simple, and it will definitely not stop so easily."

"I understand." Ryan nodded to express his understanding. He also felt that Tzeentch's conspiracy was not that simple.

"Also, I will go out after a while." Angron was in a happy mood after playing with the tiger. The Primarch of the World Eaters shouted with great interest: "I made an appointment with Brenna to explore the south. The ruins of the underground elf palace in the country's Tobalo city-state, let's see if there are any good things and bring them back to my good nephew."

Bounty hunter Brenna is the only Sanctuary mercenary in the Southern Kingdom. He and Angron once met in the Blight Swamp. Recently, Brenna has received a big order to explore Estalia Tobalo. The ancient elven ruins underground in the principality. This is a very dangerous task. The reward is 10,000 gold crowns plus many benefits. Brenner is not confident on his own, so he decides to ask Angron for help. After the task is completed, it will be split 50-50.

Angron agreed. He didn't care much about money, but he liked adventure, and the ancient elven ruins aroused his interest.

"Okay, as long as my brother is happy." Ryan and Angron exchanged a few words before taking Morgiana back to the guest room in the manor. The two of them took a long bath together and then prepared to rest. .

Morgiana leaned against the bedside lazily. She pulled up the quilt and looked at the magic lamp beside the bed in a daze: "Ryan?"

"What's wrong? Morgiana?" Ryan also leaned on the soft pillow, thinking about something.

"I never thought that one day I would become like this." Morgiana put the potion Holy Grail aside, and the first choice of the Lake Fairy sighed with satisfaction: "But I have to say, this kind of It's not a bad feeling, I like being with you, Ryan, I like talking to you, having dinner with you, staying with you, I always feel happy, I don't know if this is love, I haven’t experienced it and don’t understand it, but I really…”

"Me too, Morgiana... You know, we were originally because of an accident." Ryan smiled bitterly after hearing this. He reached out and stroked Morgiana's golden hair: "But you are so good to me, I What else can be said?”

"Actually, I was very worried at the time." Morgiana shook her head, with an intoxicating blush on her face: "I was worried that the lady would disagree with us... but I didn't expect that the lady just asked me to be careful not to be discovered."

Ryan was funny in his heart. If we look at the results backwards, Morgiana and Sulia are the two ropes in the hands of the fairy in the lake. The goddess used these two ropes to tightly trap Ryan. How could she object? Morgiana lost her virginity to him because of the undead's conspiracy, which was an unexpected surprise, because Ryan valued responsibilities and obligations very much.

"Is there any big news recently?" The two chatted for a while. Ryan noticed that it was already very late, and he put his arms around Morgiana's slender waist.

"Yes, there is news from Kislev. If we don't talk about it now, you will know it tomorrow. Ryan, let's come back..."

"Um."

…………I am the dividing line between two ropes……

The next day, which was late December of this year, Ryan set off from the manor with Morgiana and returned to his ducal castle.

Morgiana, who spent the night with Ryan, had a moist and flushed face, which she could hardly hide. Not to mention Ryan, even Morgiana knew that she couldn't do this. Not long after she entered Jean City, the Lake God The witch left first on her unicorn Hilfaen. She was going to see the construction of the new Holy Grail Church.

When Ryan came back, Duchess Sulia and Ryan's father-in-law François came out to greet him. Francois was wearing a blue and white ducal dress with the unicorn and Pegasus emblems. When Ryan came back, Sulia Before Ya could speak, Francois reached out and patted Ryan's arm hard twice: "Lian, are you not in trouble? Musilon's place should not be able to suppress it."

"No trouble, just a little disgusting." Ryan shook his head. Halfway through his words, little chubby Devon Hill ran out: "Dad~Dad, you are finally back. Dad, I want a gift!"

"Dad is going out to fight, what gift can I get~" Ryan picked up little Devon Hill from the ground and kissed the little guy on the face: "Did you be good while dad was away?"

"Be good, my mother said I am good!" Little Devon Hill shouted happily: "Both mothers said I am very good."

"Which two mothers?"

"Mother Lidya Su and Mother Lilith!" Little Devon Hill waved his little fist.

"Young master, the rest time has ended early, and you have reading lessons in the morning." Sylvia, the head maid, approached with a straight face: "Please follow me."

Devon Hill nodded obediently and followed Sylvia. Ryan took Sulia's hand, pulled his wife to his side, and then said to Francois: "Where are the Dukes?"

"Berhemond and Lawn are conducting war simulations in the conference hall of your castle." Francois stroked his goatee and smiled: "They are conducting a simulation of a recent war in Kislev. , this is the largest war that has occurred recently.”

"What kind of war is it?" Ryan was very interested after hearing this, and Morgiana mentioned it.

"It happened in the north of Kislev. The Kislev Bear Cavalry Marshal Voroshilov led more than 20,000 Kislev troops and the barbarian tribe of Belson Forest opposite the Mourning Mountains in the north of Kislev. War." Francois nodded: "We have received very detailed information about this war from Kislev. Lawn, Bochmond, and Bodrick are relying on the existing information to conduct war deductions. .”

"It sounds like a very intense fight." Ryan became more interested.

"It's really intense." Francois shook his head helplessly after hearing this: "Marshal Voroshilov of the Kislev Bear Cavalry took the initiative and paid more than 20,000 huge casualties, losing 120 soldiers. At the cost of the bear cavalry, 1,500 Ugor horse archers, 700 Kislev shooting troops, and 50 artillery pieces, they defeated more than 5,000 barbarian troops of the Bel Pine Forest tribe in the south of the Mourn Mountains. Recovered some northern strongholds, and drove the Belpine Forest tribe to the other side of the Mourn Mountains in the decisive battle at Korvoze Ice Lake in the high mountain pass."

"This war was called the Winter War."
