What is the purpose of the Marquis of Lelan?

If it was really an encirclement of the Corey tribe, then he would definitely not be doing business at a loss;

Fran knows that the encirclement and suppression of the Corey tribe can plunder resources from it and capture some of them as slaves;

So, how much does it cost to travel from Firestone City to the Kerui tribe near Baiyan City? War requires sufficient logistical support.

He also gave a thousand golden dragons as gifts to Earl David.

If he calculates this way, even if he can easily win a big victory and rob a large tribe with thousands or even thousands of people, how much can he make a profit? Is this really worth it?

What's more, Marquis Lelane has to put aside his pride and apologize to Count David...

Is he a person who can give up his dignity so easily?

If so, I believe there will be no big conflict between him and Earl David, who advocates benevolence, righteousness and morality.

The arrival of the Marquis Lelan is very suspicious.

It was not beyond Fran’s expectation that Count David believed others so easily;

In her impression, Earl David was not a shrewd person—he was generous, kind, but not intelligent.

To be nice, it is called naive, and to be bad, it is called dull.

Before, when Fran heard about his compensation measures for the nobles who were attacked in the territory, even Fran, who had never had relevant experience in handling the situation, felt quite unreliable.

Earl David also knew there was a problem, but he thought he had "no choice".

How could the Lord of a City have no choice?

What made Fran even more uneasy was the expressions of those vassals.

After learning about the purpose of Marquis Lelan, Count David was so happy—he was relaxed from the bottom of his heart;

However, the other vassals' faces remained tense.

Viscount Tad was fine, his smile was relatively natural, but the other four vassals looked completely smiling: they grinned with their mouths, their eyes were straight, and they nodded continuously and exaggeratedly like a chicken pecking at rice, and even... they were trembling.

What are they thinking about?

Earl David's children did not see any abnormality, but just enjoyed it together.

Oh my God, can this work...Fran is increasingly convinced of the authenticity of the Ailey dream.

A vassal with each other and a nobleman who is not smart enough.

Moreover, why did the eldest sons of various families disappear together?

This should be a major event worthy of attention... those vassals were not panicked at all, and Count David was actually blinded by joy and did not consider this matter...

No, I have to tell Count David later.

Fran feels that what he says now will be dangerous - if these people are really planning something bad, they may get rid of themselves first.

Thinking of this, Fran also smiled - she tried to make her smile more natural, but the scars on her face made the smile look particularly terrifying.

After the meeting, Fran found Count David.

"My adopted daughter, you need to decide your real name at tomorrow's Marination Festival." Earl David's eyes were full of lovingness - Fran knew that he looked at everyone: "Your previous name was really indecent."

"This is natural, my father." Fran nodded, "but, my daughter now has something more important to report to you... I hope you can pay attention."

"A wise monarch will definitely listen carefully to the opinions of his subordinates." Earl David nodded, "You can tell me."

So Fran briefly described what he had noticed to Earl David.

Of course, she did not mention anything about "dreams";

Nobles don't so easily believe such unreliable events; they are usually very stubborn, and using such unreasonable and unfounded things like making up stories to try to convince them, there is a very likely effect.

Therefore, Fran only pointed out the inappropriateness of the Marquis of Lelan and the abnormal manifestations of several other vassals.

As for the collective disappearance of the eldest son of the noble family, Fran could not guess what it was, but he felt it was suspicious, so he also reiterated to Count David, hoping that he could attract attention.

"You mean, the nobles may not do their best to help defend the city for their father?" David laughed, "Daughter, you are really good at joking; they are vassals for their fathers, how could they not help the fathers with care?"

"But..." Fran felt that David's idea was too naive: it was not a matter of carelessness, it was their position...

"Each of them made the most sincere vow under the protection of the God of Sun and the God of Night. Even if they sacrificed their lives, they would definitely protect their lord." Earl David's eyes were full of sincerity.

"My father..."

"The gods will bless everyone who is loyal to protect the Lord. If they turn their oath, the gods will punish them in the most severe way." Earl David continued, "Daughter, don't underestimate their loyalty."

You shouldn't overestimate their loyalty! Do you have no idea what their expression means at all? Don't you know that each of them may have ulterior motives!?

Fran complained wildly in his heart.

According to the nature of Count David, it is quite normal for him to have such thoughts - Fran heard the older generation of people in the city describe the life of Count David. He has been generous and kind since he was a child and received a considerable degree of aristocratic education - limited to theory; therefore, all his code of conduct must be handled according to the "noble standards".

"Noble" must be sympathetic to his own people and trust his vassals, and he has indeed done this-

But others may not necessarily swear allegiance to you in the same manner as the noble spirit!

That set of oaths is completely nonsense, only if you have such a stubborn mind, you will believe it!

I have heard of that set of ghost theory. What kind of god of the sun bless the righteous, god of the night bless the kind, god of the wind bless the hardworking...

This is the same as the gods, and the birds and beasts worshipped by the Kori tribe, whoever loves to believe it! If there is really a god’s words, what were they doing during the period of suffering and suffering as slaves? Watch the show?

If that were the case, there was no need for that kind of god to believe!

"My daughter, you don't have to doubt them; you should have realized now that your worries are useless." Earl David stared at Fran's face and nodded, "Maybe you should make some preparations for the Marsh Festival."

Are the two balls under your eyebrows used for decoration? Where do you see those things?

"Master Father..." Fran had not given up completely and planned to persuade Earl David again.

"Okay, I have other things to do for my father; after the wheat-cutting festival, I can talk to you well until you are satisfied." Earl David smiled and touched Fran's head, then turned and left.

……well!
