Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning

Chapter 149 149. Giving Gifts

Ash Village.

With the end of the first knight and guard competition in Shanlin Town, Redal began to make plans to attack the black-collar tribe.

As the most powerful place among the savage tribes, the Black Collar Tribe has much stronger defenses than the Gray Earth Village. A direct attack would probably cause greater casualties.

But Ruidal had a way. Starting from the 24th, he arranged for the cavalry to cross the middle line and go straight to the center of the black collar tribe. When the opponent reacted and sent cavalry to intercept, he asked the cavalry to turn around and return immediately.

"Captain, look they're here again!"

On a hillside, Feliton's knight Unai pointed at the cavalry galloping on the mountain road and shouted angrily: "Are the people in Huitu Village sick? They have to eat and have nothing to do and run around here every day?"

Feliton sneered, "Their blatant transgression violates the agreement. Just wait. When the baron comes back from Wushan Castle, we will settle accounts with Na Luoning!"

"What about now, are we going to let them cross the line like this every day?" a knight asked.

Feliton pondered slightly. He didn't know what the other party was doing, but he would never allow the enemy to cross the border so brazenly and come to the land of Thain Territory.

"Go, find some cavalry and intercept them for me!"

Butler Hallwart greeted you respectfully at the door, "Say hello to you, Mr. Viscount!"

Redal was noncommittal. Originally, he was planning to lure Joffrey out to talk with him, but he didn't expect that the black-collar tribe would change people.

Fortunately, preparations had been made here. A large number of servants, grooms, and counting officials were already in place, quickly carrying away the gifts brought by the nobles.

Lu Lansi's birthday is a major event in Wushan Territory. There are so many nobles coming this time, and the vehicles and supplies they carry have blocked the square in front of Wushan Fort.

Luo Ning was slightly startled, and a beautiful woman with silver hair flashed in his mind.

Luo Ning shrugged his nose. At this time, the stench of horse sweat and horse manure in the square was not very pungent. After handing the Cloud Stepping Horse to Tom, he took McCann into the castle.

"Then you stay with Uncle Marvin first, and I'll go see Grandpa." Luo Ning said.

"Basically, we're almost here." Hallwart smiled and introduced the two of them into the castle. "Young Master Luo Ning still lives in the same place as before. We have made arrangements for Mr. Viscount's residence. Please come with me."

"Master Luo Ning, welcome to your arrival!"

"Is this really useful?" Elrond was a little unsure.

While Redal was preparing, Luo Ning and his party finally arrived at Wushanbao on the afternoon of the 26th.

Viscount Marvin greeted casually, "How many nobles are here?"

Feliton decided: "No matter what, let's play with them and see what tricks they can do!"

"Okay, Master!"

"Let this group of cavalry practice their riding skills now. Wait for the big ones to come on the 1st, and then provoke them a few more times to draw out as many people as possible. It is better than attacking directly."

Ever since, there has been a funny scene on the borderline where you chase me and you run and I chase.

It is still a bit difficult for these professional knights to rely on fortifications to resist the enemy. It's hard for Shanlin Town to train so many cavalry, so we can reduce the losses as much as possible.

Although Luo Ning left Wushan Castle and became a baron outside, he was still a little different from other nobles. At least he still had a fixed small building and yard in Wushan Castle.

Hallwart smiled and said: "Oh, by the way, Miss McKinney should also be at the Marquis's place. You might be able to meet her if you go over now."

Rydal and Elrond rode their horses and stood on the hillside where the scout camp was located, looking at the two groups of people.

"Long time no see, Hallwater."

McKinney, his half-sister. After his mother passed away, Luo Ning received a lot of love and care from McKinney, and the relationship between the two was very good.

However, McKinney got married six years ago, to Sir Kabir of Brilliant City.

Kabir is the leader of the Second Knights of Wushanbao. He has strength comparable to that of the Golden Knights and has achieved considerable military exploits in many wars.

It's a pity that his parents are just free people with a very ordinary background and no background. Even though he is very powerful, he is still just a canonized knight.

The main reason why McKinney married him was that they were in free love, and Rulans and Wiggins also valued each other's potential.

But no matter how you say it, McKinney is considered to be getting married, and many people were opposed to it, either covertly or openly.

Luo Ning arrived at the back courtyard with ease. The guards along the way knew the identity of this man and did not stop him in any way.

While waiting for the guard's announcement, a young lady in a gorgeous dress walked out quickly.

She wore a light blue dress with a corset over it, an ornate belt around her waist, and jewels at the neckline.

In addition, the small hat she wears on her head is decorated with various gems and feathers, and combined with the sparkling necklace on her white neck, she shows her luxurious and noble temperament.

"Luo Ning~"

McKinney strode forward and held Ronin in his arms, "Long time no see!"

"Long time no see, sister!"

The two separated, and Luo Ning greeted each other with a smile.

McKinney looked at Luo Ning up and down and said happily: "You have grown taller and your body has become much stronger."

She looked up at Luo Ning, with mist and worry in her eyes: "It's just that Shanlin Town is too miserable. Can you get used to living there?"

After traveling through time, it was the first time that Luo Ning felt cared for so clearly.

McKinney is different from Rulans, whose emotions are always reserved, but she is more direct.

Perhaps, although the predecessor's character was not very good, as siblings, this did not affect the relationship between the two.

"Don't worry, sister, the situation in Shanlin Town is not that bad. Everything is fine with me there."

As he spoke, he looked at the handsome blond man behind McKinney and greeted him with a smile, "It's been a long time since I saw you Kabir. You still look as handsome as before."

Kabir stepped forward. He looked a little elegant, not as tall and tall as ordinary knights. "You are the same as Ronin. The feeling you have now is completely different from before!" To be honest, Kabir once said He didn't think highly of Luoning. The other party didn't behave like a qualified heir. Especially after losing the right to inherit, Kabir couldn't help but feel angry.

After all, as McKinney's husband, it can be said to a certain extent that he will definitely side with Luo Ning in the future. It's just that now the heir is replaced by Brayton, followed by Earl Hyde, which makes him a little worried.

However, Luo Ning has done a few good things recently, which has slightly changed his impression of Luo Ning.

The three of them exchanged pleasantries outside, and it was mostly McKinney who was concerned about Luo Ning's eating, drinking, and diarrhea. She really looked like half a mother.

After a while, the three of them entered the house under the guidance of Most.

There was a fireplace in the room and it was very warm. At this time, there was no one else except Lulans.

"Luo Ning is here."

Lu Lansi's face glowed red, and he seemed to be in a much better mental state than before, but he didn't know whether it was because his body had recovered a little, or because people felt refreshed during happy events.

"Grandpa, happy birthday!"

Luo Ning gave a blessing and took out the package from McCann's hand, "This is the gift I prepared for you. I hope you like it."

"Oh?"

Rulans' eyes revealed surprise, "Let me see what this is?"

McKinney and Kabir also cast glances.

Luo Ning took out the coat and put it on Rulans, "A storm wolf came to the territory. This is a coat made for you using its skin."

Lulans stroked the coat. It felt very good, and it immediately brought warmth to him. "Not bad! You can kill the Storm Wolf, and I don't have to worry about your safety in Hillwood Town."

McKinney walked up and looked Lulans back and forth. While sighing that the coat was of good quality, he also lamented the danger of Luo Ning's territory.

After all, there are territories invaded by monsters. No wonder no one wanted to be the lord there in the early years.

Luo Ning took out another light blue scarf, "This is a scarf I made with special silk thread from Shanlin Town. You should like it."

Special thread?

This sentence immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall, and they all looked over curiously.

"It's so thin and soft!"

Lulans took the scarf into his hand and stroked it, unable to help but exclaim.

The feeling it brought to him was completely different from scarves made of other materials, and as he wore it, the warmth was no worse than scarves such as wool or goose down.

McKinney couldn't help but touch it, showing affection upon contact.

Although this scarf did not have any complicated patterns embroidered on it, she could still feel its specialness. With a little processing, it would definitely bring an elegant and noble temperament.

"What kind of thread is this?"

Luo Ning introduced with a smile: "This is a fabric made of silk. I named it 'silk'. Compared with traditional linen and woolen cloths, it is extremely soft and comfortable." , breathable, hygroscopic, and at the same time it has a bright gloss and a delicate touch. If time were not enough, this scarf would be more gorgeous and elegant."

Luo Ning said this professionally, sounding like an introduction, but in fact it was also a promotion.

After listening to his introduction, several people have already defined silk as a high-end textile material.

McKinney's eyes shone even more, "Luo Ning, I also want a scarf like this. No, I want a skirt like this. It will definitely be very cool to wear in summer!"

"of course can!"

The promotion of silk fabrics must be driven by nobles, so Luo Ning naturally wouldn't mind giving McKinney one.

"But I won't have new materials until August or September today. Then I will definitely make a beautiful skirt for you, sister."

"What exactly is it made of and can I produce it?" McKinney asked.

"It shouldn't be possible, right? Maybe this is a specialty of Shanlin Town?"

Luo Ning wasn't sure if there were silkworms in other places, but even if there were, they wouldn't be able to deal with them without mastering the techniques of silk reeling.

"I didn't realize it, but Shanlin Town is really a blessed place!"

Rulans smiled and tied the silk scarf around his neck, then sat down again wearing the Storm Wolf coat.

Although the value of these two things from Luo Ning was a bit lower than those of other nobles' gifts, they were enough for him.

Sometimes people don’t care more about the type of gift, but more about the person giving it.

"I heard that you have a follower who can defeat the Bronze Knight. How many things are you hiding from me?"

To be honest, Rulans couldn't help but be surprised when he heard that Ronin's Redal Knight defeated Leisen. He didn't expect that Ronin had a powerful knight besides McCann.

If it weren't for the letter bird that hadn't connected Wushanbao and Shanlin Town yet, he would have wanted to ask Luo Ning.

Kabir on the side also said: "Although Leisen is not strong, it is not something that ordinary high-level knights can defeat. Has the knight named Redal come this time?"

"Ruidal has other things to do, so I didn't bring him here this time."

Luo Ning added: "However, his fighting skills and strength are indeed relatively strong, and I have learned a lot from him."

"That's a pity~"

Lulans suddenly laughed, "If he comes here, maybe he will be the champion of this martial arts tournament."

"There is also a martial arts tournament in the birthday party?" Luo Ning was surprised.

"Isn't this just to make grandpa's birthday party more lively?"

McKinney introduced with a smile: "As long as anyone under the age of thirty can participate, the champion can get a thousand gold coins at a time. Many knights have been preparing after learning the news in the past two days."

Luo Ning's eyes lit up. Why did he feel that Mr. Lulans was specifically giving him money?
