Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 336 The Empire Shakes
Robert grinned. He was also driven to the shelves by Romon, who had no master at the time. He didn't expect that his lord did not do badly. Sure enough, the blood of dominion was flowing in his body.

However, Stannis remembered an important marriage, "By the way, I remember that the eldest son of the Howth family, Lambert, who is now the Earl of Howth, promised that he would marry the eldest daughter to you as long as we send troops. Why? Like? Has that fragrant noble girl been brought over, I'm still waiting for the bridal chamber!" Stannis asked meanly.

The acting lord was not happy with what he said, "Boss, what you said is meaningless, it makes me seem to be doing this great deed for a woman. I didn't agree to the marriage, let that noble lady Where did it come from and where did it go?"

Stannis was also deeply thoughtful in his wise words, "Well, this woman must not be pretty."

"Did you hear what I said! That young lady is very punctual! If it was normal, I would definitely not be able to hold it!"

Stannis touched the other party's head curiously, "Did you get it wrong? Didn't you always say that your biggest dream in life is to find a nobleman to be your son-in-law! Now an earl's daughter is sent to you, you Why don't you want it?"

Robert rubbed his head in embarrassment, "Actually, it's not that I don't want it. It turns out that Miss Hawes already has a sweetheart, a little knight under their family. They have made a private appointment last year. I can't take it by force, right? So I So I clarified this matter with Earl Hoss, let him complete the marriage, and be the first to send blessings in your name, and wrapped a thousand gold coins as a gift."

"You really know how to be a man!" Stannis knew that if this matter got out, his reputation would be greatly improved, but he still had one more thing to explain: "But you are a bit too generous in giving congratulatory gifts. If it was me, Just pack 100 coins for meaning, and it doesn’t feel bad to send the money if it’s not yours!”

"But..." Robert didn't expect this guy to deny it.

"The extra 900 coins will be considered as a gift from you, and will be deducted from your monthly pocket money in the future, and interest will be calculated!"

Robert fainted in the toilet.

Stannis was very satisfied that when he went out, the internal operation of the territory was still in an unstable manner. Not only did he not expose any troubles for him, but it also gave him another ally. He would not have to worry about the problem of war horses in the future, and he could finally establish A real cavalry army.

"By the way." Although he was upset about his unfair treatment, Robert still didn't forget to remind Stannis to get down to business. "Yesterday, Hillier from Dill's family came over personally to send you an invitation."

"What invitation? Is he going to get married?" Stannis said jokingly, the stern-looking guy didn't know what to do again.

"How do you know! Hillier is getting married, and his partner is Sofia, the second lady of the Garcia family!"

"What are you doing! I thought Hillier had cut ties with the Duke's daughter! Are you still here?" Although Stannis thought this was unbelievable, he felt that it was more important to eat first after he had been on the go all day and night.

In the afternoon, Stannis, who hadn't eaten roasted rabbit for a long time, ate a delicious meal. Compared with the addictive human blood pumpkin, the delicious roasted meat was more satisfying.

After routinely praising Chef Cook's craftsmanship, the greasy Stannis pulled Xiaona up. Carrot and the big fool were going to hold a small black room meeting. Unable to stop his lifeless smacking, Stannis had no choice but to expand the meeting in the small black room and let Counselor Romon sit in on the sidelines.

First of all, Stannis gave a general account of the journey, and once again exposed the ugly face of Duke Garcia, which made the participants gasp.

"I didn't expect Duke Garcia to be such a person. He would abandon a town for his own self-interest. Fortunately, I had sworn allegiance to him before!" Robert had an expression of enlightenment.

Stannis rolled his eyes at him. This boy's vow is not worth as much as a prostitute's sweet talk. It is estimated that if you make a vow today, you will forget it tomorrow.

"Then what should I do next?" Korodov frowned and asked, "This kind of obvious violation of the knight's oath should be reported to His Majesty the Emperor immediately, I believe he will organize an army to attack the unjust Duke Garcia! "

But Stannis smiled disdainfully at the words of the knight commander. This guy really can only be a knight. He really thinks that these moral clauses can restrain the gang of lords who can marry their wives out for profit.

Before he could speak, Robert on the side gave him a serious lesson, "Krodov, sometimes you are too young! Do you think anyone will believe us when we make this small report? Even if someone dares to do it for a Did the little earl offend the now stable duke?"

"But...but at least we can let others know the true face of the Duke, and let them know that following him will not end well!" Korodov hesitated and still wanted to refute.

"But if you don't hang out with Garcia, who will you hang out with? With the boss! Although you will be sold with the Duke, if you are the boss of the platform, you may not see the sun tomorrow!"

Although Robert's words were not pleasant, there is no doubt that what he said was all the truth. Even though Stannis' power has grown by leaps and bounds in the past six months, and he has been able to rank in the top ten categories of the Duchy of Tanis, but he still wants to challenge the duke. It's better to dig a hole and bury yourself, so that at least you can have some dignity when you die.

The three big men became dejected again. They calculated for a long time, and felt that unless the empire intervened, there was no good way to get Duke Garcia down at once.

"Boss, what did the imperial special envoy Xiao Enbin say? Can you let him say a few words in front of the emperor? Maybe His Majesty wants to establish a dual system and support an agent to check and balance that old Garcia."

But Dinah at the side interrupted them, "Grandpa seems to have something to tell you..."

Since just now, Counselor Romon, who can only observe and has no right to speak, has been raising his hand to say something, but has been ignored by Stannis, and now he is finally allowed to speak.

"Old man, speak quickly!"

Advisor Romon put down his stiffened hands and said seriously, "It's impossible for you to get aid from the empire!"

"Why is that?" Stannis asked curiously.

"Because of His Majesty the Emperor, he most likely passed away in the White Tower of the Imperial Capital last week!"
