Chapter 585: Lord and Knight Sisters
"Lord Jim?!"
Looking at the obese figure with distorted complexion and crashing to the ground, the fair faces of Tina and Tiya were full of surprise and puzzlement.
You must know that this guy, as the loyal dog leg of the Marquis, or a vicious minion, usually does a lot of bad things.
But because he was originally a profiteer, the low-level noble status he exchanged for the golden dragon, and the endorsement of the city lord, the Marquis, made the hard-working free farmers in the surrounding villages of Tiegebao dare not speak out.
Moreover, his strength is quite impressive at the peak level of the second order, and he is also a fire magician, which gives him the terrifying ability to personally execute the rebels on the spot.
But such a noble bully who had to go around even the surrounding mercenaries and the guard team established by the village itself, how could he be beaten to fly?
In addition to doubts, Tina and Tia, who were suddenly relieved, looked further away along the broken wooden courtyard gate.
I saw a young man in plain clothes, surrounded by a group of servants in the same plain clothes, slowly walking over.
"Against the Gods"
"Bastard, who the **** are you?!"
Struggling to get up his obese body, Lord Jim, who was used to being domineering, had an uncontrollable murderous look on his face, and said viciously: "Do you know who I am? I am the grain requisition officer of Lord Marquis! Offended If you offend Lao Tzu, you will offend the entire Tige Fort!"
"There's so much nonsense, whoever you love."
A calm voice sounded, and the young man said expressionlessly, "Didn't you shout just now that you wanted to break the legs of us outsiders?"
"I'm not only going to break your leg now, but also want to kill you!"
On the other side, Lord Jim's chubby face full of horizontal flesh was full of murderous intent.
Next, with a greasy fat hand slashing fiercely in mid-air, four fireballs formed out of thin air, sweeping the scorching wind, roared towards the young man in charge at extreme speed!
"Is this also called fire magic?"
There was a crisp sound of disdain, and just as the several deadly fireballs were about to approach the young man, a slender and tall female figure stood in front of the young man.
She stretched out a slender hand and pushed forward lightly, and the four scorching fireballs that were already close to Chi Chi disappeared in mid-air in an instant, as if they had never appeared before.
Needless to say, it was Hong Ye who made the shot, and the young man standing calmly behind her was naturally Lei Xiao.
Of course, in order to deceive the public, Lei Xiao and his party all performed illusions and pretended to be casual.
"How can this be?!"
Seeing that his tried and tested magic was easily deciphered, Lord Jim, whose face was full of murderousness, was stunned.
Immediately afterwards, a flattering look emerged from his fat face, and he said with a smile: "Your Excellency, there must be some misunderstanding between us, how about the villain make amends to you?"
"Sorry, I hate bullying guys like you the most."
Dan Dan glanced at the other party, then Lei Xiao nodded to Hong Ye and said: "Go, let him pay the price he deserves."
"As you order, my lord."
Bowing slightly to Lei Xiao, Hong Ye respectfully responded.
Then, with a movement of her figure, she appeared behind Lord Jim, like carrying a big bag of garbage, and dragged the opponent, who was constantly cursing and threatening, to the back of a big tree not far away.
"You bastard, you don't know what's good or bad! I want you to die at my feet just like those low slaves!"
Under the shadow of the big tree, Lord Jim had a ferocious face, his twisted and fat face covered with horizontal flesh, full of resentment: "I am a nobleman, I want to kill you lowly slaves..."
In the next second, a mass of orange-red flames mixed with a little white rose into the sky, and everything became quiet in an instant, leaving only the black smoke of birds and birds, still threatening the opponent's last sin.
"My lord, just like those soldiers who are about to attack you,
That maggot has completely disappeared from this world. "
In the blink of an eye, Hong Ye returned to Lei Xiao's side and bowed in salute.
"very good."
Looking at the black smoke that had gradually dissipated in the air, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction.
On the other side, seeing this scene, while Tina and Tia looked at each other, a look of surprise and joy appeared on their two fair and delicate faces.
Although the appearance had changed, the two of them could never forget that peaceful and calm male voice, it was the Lord Chensha whom they were thinking of so much!
"Chen..."
Excited, just when Tia was about to go up to say hello, she was stopped by Tina again.
"Tiya, since Your Excellency Chensha and his party have already carried out cross-dressing, they obviously don't want to reveal their true identities, so we'd better play by ear."
Nodding to her sister, Tina nodded as a reminder.
"Sister is right, let's play by ear!"
Hearing the sound, Tiya's reaction was also very quick, and she quickly made an unfamiliar expression.
At the same time, Lei Xiao naturally wouldn't contact the two directly, but nodded slightly to the two veiledly, and took his own steps again.
In this way, after confirming that no one else was following them, Lei Xiao and his party finally met with Tinatia in a hidden place under a barren mountain outside the village.
"Two, I haven't seen you for a few days."
Taking off the illusion mask on his face, Lei Xiao smiled lightly while waving his hands to signal his subordinates to release their vigilance.
"Sister, it really is Your Excellency Chensha!"
Seeing Lei Xiao's true face, Tia couldn't help jumping up excitedly.
But immediately after, realizing that Tia had lost her composure, she blushed and hid behind Tina, only showing most of her head.
"Your Excellency Chensha, I am so glad to see you!"
Pulling out Tia behind her again, Tina said excitedly, "Also, thank you for removing a scourge for Tiegebao!"
"It's just a little effort."
Dan Dan smiled, Lei Xiao couldn't help frowning slightly.
Before that, although I passed by the area around Tiege Fort several times, I never stopped.
Unexpectedly, the dilapidated environment and sallow and emaciated people in these villages did not look much better than Chijian Town and Magneto Town.
This desolate and lifeless scene is undoubtedly very different from other cities and surrounding villages under his control.
"Sorry, Your Excellency Chensha, I made you laugh."
Looking at Lei Xiao's wrinkled brows, Tina sighed softly, and said, "This phenomenon of oppressing free farmers is very common in this area, and those in power here only care about their immediate interests and enjoyment.
But they don't know that only by truly allowing the people under the rule to live and work in peace and contentment, can the fief's population, food production, and even the quality of soldiers be soundly developed. "
"The way to get along with the people should never be whipping and torture, but to share the benefits with each of the people. Only in this way can a territory be indestructible."
After a pause, Tina Dai lowered her eyebrows and said, "Although I really don't want to admit it, I haven't seen smiles and hope on the faces of the people in these villages for a long time."
"It's no wonder there are such scumbags who rely on people's power."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao changed the subject and asked curiously: "If that's the case, then why does the Blue Rose Knights still stay in this hopeless land?"
"Returning to Your Excellency Chensha, besides wanting to help these people as much as possible, I have another reason why I have to stay here, and that is because our roots are here."
I saw Tina first glanced at Tiya who was also frowning beside her, and then continued: "To tell you the truth, Your Excellency Chensha, two hundred years ago, this city named Tiegebao was originally founded by Lengyan. , has always been the fiefdom of the family where Zi Xia and Tia belonged.
At that time, because the ancestor who was the lord of Tiege Castle died of illness early, and his son was just born, this made the family of the current lord of the city see the opportunity, and finally annexed Tiege Castle completely and became the territory of the other party. "
"So there is such a thing, are you and Tia both members of the declining traditional nobles?"
Feeling the sadness and helplessness in the other party's words, Lei Xiao patted the other party's thin shoulder lightly to express comfort.
Regarding the friction and struggle between Leng Yan's traditional nobles and the new nobles, Lei Xiao had heard Ariel mention it before, and knew that the situation would not improve until Ariel's father was crowned.
After pondering for a while, Lei Xiao looked softly, and asked again: "In this way, the Blue Rose Knights were first established by the son of the former city lord who was just born, right?"
"Your Majesty Chensha is right. The first head of the Blue Rose Knights is the great-grandfather of my grandfather Tia."
Nodding to Lei Xiao, Tina's fair face couldn't help showing a hint of darkness, and she murmured: "So, the Blue Rose Knights are already the last symbol of the family where Tia and I belong. No matter what, we also want to do our best to protect it with all our might.
Speaking of this, Tina looked at Lei Xiao gratefully again, and said sincerely: "Originally, in the face of the increasingly difficult environment and the run-off with the current Tiegebao castellan, Tiya and I almost couldn't hold on anymore. Thanks to the appearance of Your Excellency, it has brought us a new dawn!"
"Sister... the head of the group is right, it is really thanks to Your Excellency Chensha!"
Tina on the side also blinked her starry eyes and came up, then lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Besides, Your Excellency Chensha is still in the ruins of the Titan tribe and saved my life..."
"It's just a little effort, not worth mentioning."
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao changed the subject again, and said in a startling way: "By the way, do you want to regain the fief that once belonged to your family?"
"What?!"
Hearing Lei Xiao's words, both Tina and Tia were taken aback, their slightly parted red lips opened and closed involuntarily.
After a while, they eagerly said in unison: "Your Excellency Chensha, are you serious?!"
"Naturally it is true."
Lei Xiao, who was standing in the bright sunlight, smiled gently and responded.
Before this, Lei Xiao had been thinking about a problem.
Once the battle between myself and the forces of several princes starts, after killing the opponent's city lord and occupying the opponent's city, how should I govern quickly and effectively.
And from sisters Tina and Tiya, Lei Xiao obviously got a good idea, that is to support a group of declining nobles who lost their fiefs.
As the saying goes, you only know how to cherish when you lose it. These new city administrators will firstly appreciate their kindness, secondly, they will also bear the foundation and reputation of their previous rule in the local area, and thirdly, they will continue to work hard to revitalize the family. He is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate to work hard to manage the land under his rule.
"Your Excellency Chensha, the current city lord of Tiegebao is extremely powerful. Not only is he the core figure of the Second Prince's Royal Highness in the eastern region of Lengyan, but he also serves as the city lord of another city nearby."
In amazement, Tina lightly stroked the black hair hanging from her temples, her eyebrows drooped and she said: "Not only is he a fourth-tier strong man, but he has a cloud of strong men under him, and the number of garrison troops is close to 20,000. Moreover, The surrounding allies belonged to the faction of the Second Prince's Royal Highness, and there were 40,000 to 50,000 troops...
The most important thing is that Tiege Fort is located in the middle of the forces of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and it is almost impossible for this place to change hands. "
"That's right, the garrison forces under the command of these cities are almost all new citizens living in the cities, their status is higher than that of the surrounding free farmers, and they are also the vested interests of these emerging ~ He even had a piece of land of his own, and was able to enter the management position of a slave free farmer."
On the other side, Tiya straightened out the loose knight clothes on her chest, frowned slightly and added: "Therefore, these garrison troops are extremely loyal and well-trained, making them very difficult to deal with."
After a pause, Tia bit her red lips tightly, and whispered again: "The most important thing is, behind the other party, stands the pinnacle of power in this land, the second prince of the royal family, and if not, he will become a cold prince in the future." The new king of Yan, we little people, what do we use to fight against others?"
"exactly."
Tina curled the blue silk hanging down her ears into a circle with her fingers, and said with a faint sigh: "In short, Your Excellency Chensha, don't make fun of us. There are members of the royal family standing behind the other party. Even His Excellency Chensha, who has the allegiance of a fifth-order powerhouse, may also..."
Speaking of ~ Although Tina's words did not continue, the sense of powerlessness in her words was already beyond words.
"A member of the royal family? It's no big deal, and it's not like we don't have any here."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, he waved to Ariel who was behind him, walked up to him, and signaled the other party to take off the illusion mask on his face.
"As you order, my lord."
A crisp and sweet voice sounded, and Ariel bowed slightly, accepting orders.
In the next second, as the mask was taken off, Ariel's long, slightly curly hair slipped out immediately.
And the exquisite princess crown that had already been worn on the top of the head was even more shining in the bright sunlight, shining extremely brightly.
"This...how is this possible?!"
Seeing Ariel's delicate and fair face, Tina and Tia's pretty faces were full of irrepressible disbelief, and they both froze on the spot again.
