Lord of Riders

　　 In the evening, a grand banquet was going on in the great castle of Dherim.

　　 Shao Yu was still resting in the pub, and received an invitation from King Harous

　　 "Your Majesty, please go to the castle hall to participate in the banquet, please go on time" the messenger handed over the invitation to Shao Yu and said respectfully

　　 "Okay, please report to your majesty, I will go soon" Shao Yu nodded and sent away the messenger

　　 Shao Yu took the invitation, thinking that the banquet had started for a while before the king sent the invitation, apparently forgetting himself. But in the end I finally remembered.

　　 Shao Yu didn't think much about it. He took the invitation and went to the banquet in the castle hall.

　　 Most of the people who participated in this banquet were the lords and their brothers and sisters, wives and children, and the nobles of the kingdom taking advantage of the opportunity of holding the banquet to increase their mutual affection.

　　 Shao Yu was invited to participate in this banquet. Although he was not the lord of the Kingdom of Swadia, he was invited by King Harous, and the guards respectfully let Shao Yu into the castle hall. When Shao Yu came in, the banquet had already started for a while, and the ladies of these noble lords were all greeted each other and talked about something painless and painless.

　　 Shao Yu didn't have much friendship with these nobles, and no one came to welcome him, so he had to find a place to sit and drink the malt on the table. This malt wine can also be regarded as a specialty of the Dehrim area. The villages near Dehrim are rich in wheat, and the malt wine produced is also particularly fragrant. Shao Yu drank two glasses in a row.

　　 "Shao Yu" Shao Yu was drinking, suddenly someone shouted

　　 Shao Yu saw that it was Lord Greyward and Lord Reyes. The two of them are also old acquaintances. Shao Yu also rescued Earl Greyward. Seeing these two men also came, Shao Yu felt a lot more comfortable. It would be a bit embarrassing to be there alone.

　　 "Lord Earl, Lord Reyes, so you are here too, I should know everyone who attended the banquet" Shao Yu asked the two to come over and said happily

　　 "Two of you, come over and have two glasses."

　　 "Well, well, we happen to have nothing to do with us" Earl Greyward did not refuse

　　 The three of them sat down casually, chatting about recent things.

　　Earl Greyward re-recruited troops after returning to Fort Rendi, and trained hundreds of recruits to join the battle. Although the casualties were not small this time, they didn't hurt the root cause.

　　 "I heard that you led your army to wipe out more than 500 enemies this time, accounting for one-third of the number of our troops wiped out. As expected, young people have done something," Gray Ward praised Shao Yu.

　　 "That's because you surrounded the main enemy force, the reinforcements are just a mob, otherwise how would we be their opponents" Shao Yu laughed

"Although you said that, you offended the Marshal of Sweden. The Earl of Sweden has invested a lot of effort this time. King Haraus after the city is captured, but he feels that his contribution is not as good as you. To the lord of Sweden. The Earl of Sweden has a grudge against you now. I heard that he and the king talked about you. King Harous has also begun to be dissatisfied with your uncontrolled armed force. Be careful, I'm afraid someone will be against you." Gray Ward nodded after listening, and then said to Shao Yu.

　　 Shao Yu smiled and nodded. The Swedish dissatisfaction with him, Shao Yu had long anticipated and was planned, but he did not expect that Earl Greyward came to remind himself. It seemed that Lord Earl really regarded himself as a friend.

　　 Shao Yu received the ordnance horses of King Haraus. These equipments are very valuable. Shao Yu naturally served King Haraus, but in fact, Shao Yu never promised King Haraus' loyalty to him. I made plans for my independence in the future. Shao Yu deliberately convicted the Earl of Sweden during the siege. Sweden is a famous warrior, but he is also famous for his coldness and narrowness.

　　 Offended the Earl of Sweden, he naturally wouldn't let Shao Yu live well in the Kingdom of Swadia. In this way, Shao Yu has ample reason to leave King Haraus without having to bear the ungrateful infamy.

　　 Shao Yu talked with Lord Greyward and Lord Reyes for a while, and the two went to discuss other things with other lords. Before long, King Harous sent someone to invite Shao Yu to see him in the inner room.

　　The waiter took Shao Yu to the lounge in the castle, where King Harous was already waiting for Shao Yu.

　　 "Your Majesty the King" Shao Yu came into the house and shouted to King Harous

　　 "Mr. Shao Yu, I am glad you can come to my banquet" King Harous said with a smile on his face

　　 "It is my honor to be invited by your majesty" Shao Yu replied

　　 "Well, you have done a great job for our kingdom of Swadia this time. I want to make you a vassal under me, what do you think" King Harous asked with a smile

When Shao Yu heard this, he smiled silently in his heart, "This king really does not want to be strong and uncontrollable~www.readwn.com~ But once he is sealed, he will be bound by King Harous. This is what Shao Yu doesn't. hopefully.

　　 "His Majesty the King is going to grant me land?" Shao Yu asked still pretending to be surprised

　　 "How about, Shao Yu, swear allegiance to me, I will grant you land and people, I will protect your rights and safety, you only need to fulfill the obligations of a vassal" King Harous said

　　 "Your Majesty, this is really great, but I am afraid that I cannot be accepted by other lords when I am now entrusted." Shao Yu looked at the enthusiasm of King Haraus and politely refused.

　　 "Well, if you don't want to, let's just forget it" King Harous saw that Shao Yu was unwilling to be sealed, and said unhappily

　　 "Okay, it's okay, please do it yourself, Mr. Shao Yu" Harousi continued, his tone also getting colder.

　　 "Okay Majesty, I will go back first, thank you for your invitation" Shao Yu said and left the inner court

　　 There is no one to visit now, and he has just rejected the entrustment of King Haraus. I am afraid that Haraus is also very dissatisfied with himself now. Shao Yu didn't want to stay here more.

　　 Shao Yu came out to the guards to get weapons, and he left the castle, ready to go back to the tavern and lead the team to leave Dherim.

　　 Shao Yu stayed in this castle for a few hours, and it was late at night when he came out. There are basically no pedestrians on the road. Only some important places were guarded by a few soldiers.

　　 Shao Yu walked on the street, all around silent. Suddenly, the sound of an arrow feather breaking through the air broke the late night's order. Shao Yu had long guessed that someone would deal with him, and with the reminder of Earl Greyward, Shao Yu was even more prepared and easily avoided this cold arrow. Then quickly took off the shield light crossbow, and shot the crossbow in the direction where the cold arrow flew.

　　 Just listen to a muffled hum in the darkness
