Warlord: King of All Clans

Before Elodie could speak, Freya angrily answered: "Leo went to Olenik without me!"

Six was also very angry: "Don't take me with you either!"

"Obi! Obi! No Obi!"

Noreen asked again, "Where's Olivia?"

"I'm working in the house."

Norin paused and began to back down. "Then I'll go to Olenik to find Leo."

As she said this, she turned around and discovered that her griffin was gone.

"Where's my Griffin!"

The next moment, Norin's griffin came out of the stable nearby, carrying five or six gnolls on its back, and flew into the sky.

Norin was stunned as she watched the griffin circling low over the River Bay Peninsula and could faintly hear the cheerful barking of the little dog-headed man on its back.

The griffin is a mid-level extraordinary magical beast, known for its ferocious temperament. Both humans and gnolls are on its menu!

Only the Royal Griffin Knights can ride them!

This griffin, which had followed her to the river bay many times, was already familiar with the place. It would go to the stable to rest on its own and wait for the little puppy-headed man to secretly feed it.

How long has it been since it was tamed?

Norin had no choice but to go into the house.

The warmth in the River Bay House was as usual, which made Norin, who had come here in the rain and snow, feel completely relaxed.

Olivia was in the office of the lord's mansion, preparing for this year's spring plowing.

Because all the public fields of the lord's mansion were planted with winter wheat, she only needed to take care of those residents who were still planting spring wheat in the spring of this year, and her workload was suddenly much lighter.

The grassroots team at Hewan has also been established and mature, and there is no need for Olivia to patrol everywhere and supervise in person.

Seeing Noreen come in, Olivia quickly stood up and greeted her, and went to the small living room to drink tea together in front of the fireplace.

After Noreen explained her purpose, Olivia said, "Oh, the Grand Duke gave Olenik to Leo, and he only came back once this year. Calculating the time, he should come back this month."

Norin almost spilled the tea in her hand, "The Duke of the North gave Olenik to Leo?"

This sounds no less than the Emperor of the Southern Territory giving the imperial capital to his vassal and returning to the province of Orlantieri to retire.

But the people of Hewan were a group of peasants who had not been exposed to much political education, so when they got the news, they were only happy and took it for granted.

We in Hewan defeated Kurolov, recovered the territory of Isharov, and dealt with the Blood Moon Sect. With such great achievements, isn't it natural that we should be granted a big city?

After all, Norin came from the big dye vat of the imperial capital. Her political sensitivity was much higher than that of the people in Hewan, and she thought of a possibility at the first moment.

"Could it be that the Grand Duke of the North really wants to hand over the Grand Duke position to Leo???"

In the culture of the Southern Territory, no great noble would really hand over their family business to an adopted son who was not related by blood.

The so-called adoption of a son is nothing more than a means for big families to win over rising talents.

Even if one's own son is mentally retarded, it is still one's family bloodline.

The actions of the Grand Duke of the Northern Territory have somewhat subverted the common sense of the people in the Southern Territory.

When Olivia heard Noreen say this, she was not happy at first, but frowned, "Is that so? Doesn't that mean that Na'ao will stay in Olenik and not come back? How can this be possible!"

Her eyebrows raised as she spoke, "Sati, write a letter and tell Leo to come back quickly!"

"Okay, Mom!"

Sati, who was still working in the office, pricked up her ears, pulled out a piece of letter paper, and started writing quickly.

"Get back here! -Olivia."

After resting for a while at the river bend, the snow in front of them melted and a dragon roar was heard from the sky. Norin ran outside with everyone and saw Leo riding the dragon back.

Olenik's reconstruction work was still in its infancy, and Leo couldn't spare the time, but when Noreen came, she must have brought new news about the little mouse.

Even without Olivia urging him, he would rush back as soon as possible.

Now Roman and Godwin are staying in Olenik, supervising the reconstruction of the main city on his behalf.

Rigolav of Abros was also handing over government affairs and preparing to go to Olenike to serve as consul.

Sitting in front of the fire pit in the big house, Norin told Leo the current situation in the southern border in detail, with anxiety on her face. "Although such a major policy as the electoral of the emperor will not be passed casually, it will take at least a year or half a year to negotiate, but the result is inevitable. When I left, the newspapers in the imperial capital were already selecting candidates for the electoral of the emperor."

"Once the bill is passed, the imperial power will be basically divided up. Even if Her Royal Highness ascends the throne in the future, she will only be a puppet."

Leo was relieved after hearing this. "Just for this? You rushed here in a hurry. Is there no one in the capital to help you?"

Norin rolled her eyes at him. "Who can help with this kind of national affairs?"

Leo asked, "What does His Majesty say?"

Noreen's voice suddenly choked and she remained silent.

They never consulted the Emperor. When the Grand Council was discussing the electoral system, Charles VII was holding a grand banquet in the palace and had no time to deal with state affairs.

Anyway, the emperor's decrees cannot leave the imperial capital, and the current government affairs are basically handled by Noreen's father, Earl Leopold, and several other royal ministers.

"You are the same. The emperor is not anxious, but the princess is. Your father is the minister in front of the emperor. What does he say?"

Norin remained silent. In her eyes, her father and the Emperor were of the same character. They only retreated again and again and achieved nothing. So there was no need to consult them.

Leo sighed, the little mouse's right-hand man was still too young and ignored the power of his allies.

No matter how foolish Charles VII was, or how incompetent Count Leopold was, they were both old foxes who had been playing politics all their lives.

Leo is so successful now, and he knows to stay humble. When he encounters problems, he asks for help from Rigolav and the Grand Duke of the North.

Internal decisions of Hewan are also discussed in meetings whenever there is nothing else to do.

Apparently there were problems within the royalist faction in the imperial capital, which split into the emperor faction and the princess faction. The former disliked the latter for being radical and immature, while the latter disliked the former for being conservative and inactive.

Seeing Leo's contempt, Norin was angry and said, "Aren't you the adopted father of the princess? If you can do it, then go ahead. You are so capable, so you can solve it!"

Six listened nearby, exchanged a glance with Freya, jumped onto the bench and began to perform, lunging and pushing palms, "If you can do it, go ahead! You're so awesome! You handle it!"

“You! You! You!”

Leo picked up the two furry kids and said to Norin, "It just so happens that we were planning to go to the imperial capital anyway. In that case, let's get ready and go help the little mouse!"

"Great! Go help the little mouse!"

"Go help the big sister!"

Norin was shocked. She came here to seek guidance or reinforcements, but after hearing that the Grand Duke of the North had given Olenik to Leo, she knew that this period was a critical moment for Leo to lay the foundation, so how could she leave easily?

"You are going to the South Territory, but what about the North Territory?"

Leo laughed when he heard this, "I will take care of the affairs of the southern border, and I will also take care of the northern border."

"You stay here and accompany me to work while I write a few letters, gather allies, and give those idiots in the South a little surprise."
