In the future, official documents must be drawn up, and seals must be prepared. It is not an easy task to award a piece of land to the beneficiary.

After confirming her territory, Isabella bid farewell to His Majesty the Emperor.

Isabella is very tired now, but she didn't rest for a moment, and came here to report the task, so Isabella is really tired now, and she wants to go back and rest soon.

Caesar also noticed the tiredness on Isabella's face and approved it.

Chapter 240 Seven.

Isabella's reward will be at the court meeting two days later.

After His Majesty the Emperor announced to the civil and military officials that he would hand over Geno Territory to Isabella as his territory, it caused an uproar, and opposition came and went.

When Isabella was bestowed with the title of baron, many people had some opinions, but because she was only an honorary nobleman after all, no one objected in public whether she had real power or not.

But this time is different, this time His Majesty gave Isabella a territory.Having a territory means that Isabella will become an influential nobleman, and can also have the right to form her own guard, which is quite bad for some ministers and nobles who want to target Isabella. things.

Among these noble ministers, there were also people who had lost their children in the arena. After various investigations in the past few days, some people have already suspected Isabella.

After all, none of the nobles who can achieve the official position of minister is a fool. Of course, these people will not believe the official news, but according to the various traces left at the scene and subsequent investigations, a lot of information points to Isabella.

Although there is no direct evidence to prove that this is true, even if there is only a slight possibility, these people do not intend to let Isabella go.

What they lost was the heirs and heirs of the family. Naturally, they wouldn't just let it go so easily. Even if it wasn't for Isabella, they would rather kill by mistake than let it go. They had evil thoughts.

If Isabella becomes an influential nobleman, it will be even more troublesome to deal with.

Moreover, these nobles are nobles from the imperial capital, and their influence in the local area is quite limited. This is the reason why the so-called strong dragon cannot overwhelm the local snake.

Even if relying on the power and influence of the central imperial capital to cause trouble to Isabella, the cost would have to be multiplied several times.

So these noble ministers naturally strongly opposed it.

Of course, His Majesty the Emperor also expected this result. He silently took note of all the opponents, and after paying half the salary, he said sharply: "Do you still need to question my decision?"

"But Your Majesty, this is related to the stability of the empire. Conferring such a large territory to Baron Isabella, this... This does not conform to the rules of the empire on territory rewards, and it is negative for the long-term stability of the country. The minister absolutely disagrees." A minister said so.

"Your Majesty, we do not agree." Several other ministers agreed.

Seeing these people's resolute opposition, Isabella also frowned.

Although she didn't care about her noble status or territory, she cherished her own life very much. Seeing the tough attitude of these people, Isabella also became a little concerned.

Seeing this, His Majesty the Emperor said: "Why not? Have you all forgotten the achievements of Baron Isabella? This time the crisis of the Kabala Volcano was resolved. If there is no corresponding reward, who will serve the empire in the future? Serious service? Don’t all the lovers understand this? Can’t I give her another title?”

Isabella is now a baron, and if she is promoted to a title, she will be a viscount. A viscount is already a mid-level noble, and even if a mid-level noble does not have a fief, its influence and privileges are by no means comparable to that of a baron. .

Naturally, this was not what the opposition wanted to see, and everyone was a little silent for a while.

"Your Majesty, even if Baron Isabella is good enough in terms of achievements, is it really good to hand over such a large territory to Baron Isabella? Baron Isabella is not even an adult, and she has never even attended the Imperial Academy of Magic. After graduating, how to manage such a large territory at such a young age, how can people feel at ease, there are tens of thousands of people there, if it is not handled properly, causing turmoil, it will be a great harm to the empire, for the safety of the empire, for the people You can't play like this, Your Majesty, please think twice." The minister said in tears, with a look of concern for the country and the people.

His Majesty the Emperor smiled and said, "Mr. Orsonwell, you are right. Indeed, Baron Isabella is still young, and it is indeed not very appropriate to control such a large territory now... .." Speaking of this, His Majesty's tone was deliberately elongated, and some ministers had already smiled triumphantly, but His Majesty's subsequent words froze the smiles on their faces.

"It is precisely because of this consideration that I intend to let the Grand Duke of Barrs take over the territory temporarily, and then officially inherit the position of the lord after Baron Isabella becomes an adult. Go to that territory and learn how to become a qualified lord." His Majesty the Emperor said so.

Grand Duke Bals immediately stepped forward and said, "My lord, I will live up to everyone's expectations and complete the task."

Isabella also said: "I will definitely follow Duke Barrs to learn how to manage the territory, and strive to become a qualified lord and will never disappoint His Majesty's high expectations." Although this is a bit different from what I said before, the purpose is the same.

Everyone else was dumbfounded.They didn't expect to be able to do this again, and all of them fell silent.

His Majesty the Emperor glanced at everyone and said: "Since no one has spoken, it has been decided. From today onwards, Baron Isabella will be in charge of the Gnoland."

It's not that these people don't want to continue to oppose, but they don't dare to oppose. His Majesty the Emperor has done this step in order to reward Isabella. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that His Majesty the Emperor is really determined to reward Isabella. Yes, whoever dares to speak too much, if anyone speaks too much, I'm afraid they will offend His Majesty, and my future official career may come to an end.

Although these people were very unwilling, they didn't want to go against His Majesty's will.

The emperor said to Isabella and Bals: "Grand Duke Bals, Baron Isabella, you are also ready, go as soon as possible, Baron Isabella, before the school starts, go to your own territory to see Let's see, and let your subjects know you."

Isabella said respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."

His Majesty the Emperor said: "Then today's court meeting is over, and all the gentlemen will step down."

"Yes, Your Majesty." All the ministers responded and exited the hall.

After leaving the palace hall, many nobles greeted Isabella. Obviously, their attitude towards Isabella was completely different from before.

In the past, when Isabella was just an honorary nobleman, they only looked at Isabella in high regard. Now that Isabella is a lord with a territory, the nature is different, although now Isabella only has Barony, but where is Isabella's age? At such a young age, she is already a lord noble with a fief. The future is still long, and she doesn't know where she will go in the future.

So these people naturally have a more attentive relationship with Isabella.

Isabella couldn't stand the attention of so many people, she bid farewell to these people in embarrassment, and hurriedly ran towards her home.

It turns out that being so courteous is also a disaster, Isabella sighed in her heart.

......

Because of His Majesty's order, Isabella had to leave as soon as possible, so Isabella started packing her things as soon as she got home.

In fact, Isabella didn't need to take too many things. Isabella just went to the territory to check the situation this time, and had to come back before school started, so there was no need to move all the things away.

All Isabella needs to prepare are those daily necessities.

To be honest, when I was moving, Isabella suddenly realized that this world is really very convenient, because of the existence of space props, moving or something is not easy at all.

Because Isabella is going to patrol her own territory, there is no need for many people to go to Isabella's side, as long as Andrean, who is a knight, will follow. By the way, here is something to say, Andre Lie Ann's family now lives in Isabella's house.

Because of what happened to the Black Tiger Gang last time, Isabella asked Andrean to bring his family here for safety reasons.

Anyway, there are a lot of rooms here, so it doesn't matter if there are a few more people.

And because of Andrean's younger sister and mother, Isabella doesn't have to cook by herself every day, and the hygiene has also been improved. Isabella originally planned to hire a maid, but now she has given up temporarily.

Andrean's mother is not only good at cleaning, but also makes delicious food.

It was the first time I ate a meal cooked by Andrean's mother, and Isabella was surprised.

It tastes pretty good.

This surprised Isabella a little.

Although Andrean's family was in decline, they were still aristocrats, but Isabella was surprised that Andrean's mother had such a good craftsmanship.

Later, I heard from Andrean that her mother was very interested in making all kinds of snacks when she was Miss Qianjin. After the family declined, in order to save money, her mother also cooked.

Those years have passed, and the craftsmanship is naturally not bad.

In subsequent contacts, Isabella also found that Andrean's mother had a strong understanding of cooking and food, as well as learning ability.

Isabella was naturally very happy, she finally didn't have to cook for herself.

In addition, Isabella's mother is a great beauty, and she has already been a mother, which makes her look mature, sexy, glamorous and full of motherhood. Although she has only lived for a few days, Isabella has already fallen in love with her.

This time, it was finally decided that only Isabella and Andrean would go to Gnoland.

On the day of departure, as a mother, Janet naturally reminded her repeatedly.

By the way, let me explain here that Andrean's mother is only 35 years old this year, and because human beings in this world age very slowly, Andrean's mother looks very young. Andrean stood together, not like mother and son, but more like siblings.

Seeing the harmonious interaction between the two of them over there, Isabella felt a little jealous.

She also wants to be cared for like this, but now these are just extravagant wishes.

The mother of her body is far away in the Kingdom of Belem, and her real mother is in another world, which is far away.

Thinking of this, Isabella's heart ached slightly.

She knew that she missed her mother.

She cannot travel through time and space to another world, but she can cross mountains, rivers and lakes to meet the mother of this body.

She must go back to the kingdom of Beren and take her mother away from that country.

Thinking of this, Isabella's eyes became firmer.

She has to become strong, very strong, so that no one who is strong dares to be an enemy of her.

Dietrich didn't know if she saw Isabella's mood, she reached out and rubbed Isabella's head, and said in a half-joking tone: "Be careful on the road, don't cause any accidents , you are not peaceful at all, I don't know how many troubles will arise this time, remember, keep a low profile."

Isabella waved her hand and said, "Understood, don't worry, I will be careful not to cause any trouble."

Dietrich shook her head suspiciously and said, "It's really worrying."

Isabella rolled her eyes and said, "If you're really worried, then follow along."

Dietrich shook her head and refused, "That's not okay, it's so boring to go with you, I might as well read at home for a while."

Isabella rolled her eyes and snorted softly: "Hmph, I'm not as important as a book. Really, can't you say something nice?"

Dietrich said with a smile: "Okay, that's it, the carriage to pick you up has been waiting for a long time, let's go."

Isabella naturally understood, nodded and said goodbye to everyone, and took Andrean into the carriage.

Because Isabella didn't have a carriage, Grand Duke Baals sent someone to pick her up.This time it is a long way to go to Geno Ling, so this time we will use the airship to move.

The airship is free to the royal family, so Isabella has to make peace with the Grand Council of Bals first.

The carriage sent by Grand Duke Bals was indeed luxurious, and Isabella felt that it was worthy of being a royal family, and that was fine.

But Andrean sat there motionless, it was his first time riding in such a luxurious carriage, and now he was in a panic, for fear that if he accidentally broke something, he would have no money to make compensation.

Finally at the destination, Andrean finally let out a long breath after getting off the car.Sitting in that carriage put a lot of pressure on him.

Isabella thought, it seems that in the future, she should bring Andrean more to increase her reputation in the world.

Seeing Andrean's peace of mind, Isabella complained in her heart, dumbfounded.

It's just a carriage ride, so what?

Isabella naturally didn't know, she was used to riding in royal carriages, so naturally she wouldn't feel anything.

But this is the first time for Andrean, and it's normal to panic.

To be honest, this is the first time Isabella has come to the mansion of Grand Duke Barrs in the imperial capital. It is very big, really big. Except that there is no huge garden, this building is almost the same as Isabella has seen. of the most beautiful buildings.

After getting off the carriage, a maid came out to welcome Isabella into the building.

Bals was sorting things out. After seeing Isabella coming, Bals stopped his hands, walked forward and nodded with a smile: "Baron Isabella, you are here, faster than expected Be quick."

Isabella said with a dry smile: "It's okay. You can't let the Duke wait for me."

Balth said with a big smile, "There is no need to be too polite. Waiting for a lady is what a gentleman should do."

Isabella thought to herself, she wouldn't dare to let the Grand Duke wait for her.

Isabella looked at the many busy servants and said, "My lord, Duke Barrs, when shall we leave?"

Grand Duke Bals smiled and said, "Now."

Isabella looked at the busy people around with some surprise, and asked, "Go first? These people...don't you need to wait for them to finish before leaving?"

Bals shook his head with a smile and said, "No, they're just doing routine cleaning. I'm just idle and bored, so I'll just help out."

Isabella smiled dryly and said, "Ah, that's how it is. So it was just cleaning the satellite TV. I thought... If that's the case, then let's go, Lord Duke of Barrs."

Barth nodded and said, "Okay."

Seeing that Bals was the only one getting into the carriage, Isabella looked at him in astonishment and asked, "Master Bals, don't you need to bring your followers?" After all, even Isabella brought Ander with her. Lean, is it true that Bals, as the Duke, doesn't bring any entourage?

Bals smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, my people are in Onafas, and we can just organize people when we get there."

"?" Isabella asked with a full face.

She didn't understand what it meant.

Bals smiled and said, "Isn't it rare for you not to know? Mine is the lord of Onafas. Although I usually don't take care of things, the southern city of Onafas is indeed under my jurisdiction."

Chapter 240 Onafas

After boarding the airship from the imperial capital, Isabella and the others set off for Onafas.

Onafas is one of the largest cities in the south, and Isabella also got to know about Onafas while chatting with Grand Duke Bals.

Although it is said that Onafas is the jurisdiction of the Grand Duke of Barrs, in fact, because the Grand Duke of Barrs is obsessed with martial arts, he has basically never gone back a few times, so naturally he has no way of managing the city. Nominally belonging to the Grand Duke of Bars, the real managers are the ministers appointed by the royal family. They are managing everything in the city, so the city is still under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family.

Onafas is an important fruit and aquatic production city in the empire, so the city's commerce and trade are extremely developed, and because of this, it is also one of the richest cities in the country.

As the nominal lords of the city, these merchants had to pay taxes to Bals, that is to say, the Grand Duke of Bals was actually a super rich man.

Of course, because Bals has never managed it, he is not very clear about his own assets. To him, money is just a string of numbers. Anyway, he has never been short of money when he wants to buy something.

Isabella's heart is bleeding when she hears the Grand Duke Baals say so lightly.

Damn it, the evil feudalism and the evil capitalists are simply, simply too enviable.
