The First Order

One Thousand One Hundred Twenty-Three, Conspiracy

In the middle of the night, there were sporadically drunk people lying in the camp, Ren Xiaosu leaned on the wheel of the carriage and pretended to sleep.

At this time, no one was moving around, Ren Xiaosu slightly opened his eyes to observe everyone, and then wrote down all those who were drunk.

If, as he judged, the caravan was composed of many soldiers from the Berkeley family, then it was absolutely impossible for the soldiers to get drunk during their missions.

So, these drunk people can be ruled out first.

As a result, after observing around, Ren Xiaosu found to his astonishment that there might be fewer idlers in the caravan than he imagined.

At this time, Ren Xiaosu was a little surprised, not to mention that the Li family and the Liu family urged Mego to leave quickly, it was a conspiracy in itself, right?

Then Mego, being silly and sweet, agreed without thinking too much?

Ren Xiaosu manipulated Lao Xu to quietly circle around the caravan, and the result confirmed some of his judgments. Seeing that the carnival had just ended, there were still people on duty beside the vehicles loaded with wine barrels in the caravan.

One of Yorkshire's main industries is winemaking, and the main goods shipped by the Chamber of Commerce to Ghent this time are also wine.

There are hundreds of ox carts and horse-drawn carts in the entire caravan, a quarter of which are oak barrels full of wine.

An ox cart can carry six barrels of wine, which is the limit of the ox cart. Ren Xiaosu doubts that there are other things in those oak barrels, otherwise, there would be no one who is guarding them with full vigilance in the middle of the night.

It was just that Ren Xiaosu was thinking, is Qian Weining leading the caravan, or is the commander someone else?

The caravan set off again at dawn the next day. Qian Weining said that they would arrive at the first town on the way, Vaduz County, in the afternoon.

Ren Xiaosu asked Mego on the road: "Is this Vaduz County under the control of the Berkeley family?"

Mego nodded: "Yes, and it's one of the important towns of the Berkeley family in the south. Half of the Burning Knights' forces are gathered here. Further north, it's the territory of the Winston family."

"What is the relationship between the Winston family and the Berkeley family?" Ren Xiaosu asked curiously.

"The Winston family does not have a real great wizard, so the Winston family is more like a courtier in front of the Berkeley family," Meg replied: "In the past, the Berkeley family boys went to Ghent to study, and Winston The kids from the family only hang around them. If the Berkeley family fights with other families, the Winston family kids will immediately join forces with the Berkeley kids."

"Is there anything else?" Ren Xiaosu asked curiously.

"Oh, by the way, some people say that the Winston family has secretly sworn allegiance to the Berkeley family long ago, but these are all rumors," Mego replied.

"I'm afraid it's not a rumor," Ren Xiaosu said suddenly, "Remember, don't trust anyone other than me along the way, including the two sheepmen, especially the knights sent by the Li family to protect you, such as Mo Kex."

Mego didn't understand: "What's wrong?"

"I won't tell you for the time being, you are so stupid and easy to be tricked by others," Ren Xiaosu said.

Mego: "..."

In the evening, when the caravan arrived outside Vaduz County, Ren Xiaosu frowned: "The towns in Yorkshire don't have city walls, so why does Vaduz County have them?"

"It was built decades ago, and it is said to prevent wild animals from harming the subjects," Megohun said indifferently.

However, Ren Xiaosu didn't think that the strong city wall was to guard against wild animals.

The appearance of the city walls of the Wizarding Kingdom looks quite different from the Middle-earth barriers. The main structure is more like a castle. There are many sentry towers and arrow towers, which look like spears pointing at the sky.

The city wall was built with gray bricks and stones. Standing on the city wall were strong soldiers holding the lion banner of the Berkeley family in one hand and resting on the hilt of the long sword at their waists with the other hand.

"What does the flag of the Wizarding Kingdom look like," Ren Xiaosu asked.

Mego recalled it for a long time, but she didn't think about it for a long time. She didn't answer until a few minutes later: "It's the pattern of two long swords crossing together, and above the long sword is an eye of true seeing."

"Didn't your family live in the city of Ghent before? Why can't you even remember this?" Ren Xiaosu wondered.

"The flag of Ghent City has been withdrawn a long time ago. At first, the Norman family replaced the flag of Ghent City with their shield flag, and then the Tudor family wanted to replace the city with their Costinian flag," Meg Shrugged and replied: "The final result is that no one's flags will be planted on the top of the city, and there will be nothing bare."

Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment. He thought to himself that the struggle within the Wizarding Kingdom has already reached this level?

Obviously, the Norman family and the Tudor family are not dealing with it either, which is very good news for me.

When the caravan wanted to enter the city gate, the soldiers on duty at the gate stopped them, and the sergeant major in iron armor ordered the soldiers: "Check their vehicles!"

As a result, Qian Weining steered the horse forward and said loudly: "I am Qian Weining, the vice-chairman of the Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce. I have prepared all the customs clearance documents. There is also the respected wizard Lord Mego behind. Wasting his time?"

The soldiers at the gate glanced at the rear of the convoy, and Qian Weining pointed to Mego's carriage for the sergeant major: "There is a sign of the Eye of True Sight on the carriage, you can go and send your greetings to Lord Mego."

After speaking, the sergeant major walked towards Maegor's carriage, and the armor on his body rattled as he walked.

He came to Mego's car and knelt on one knee: "Respected Lord Mego."

Meg lifted the curtain of the car and said, "Please get up, I'm just passing through Vaduz County this time, and I will continue to head north to Ghent tomorrow."

"Understood." The sergeant stood up and waved to the soldiers at the gate of the city: "Let go, don't waste Lord Mago's time."

The caravan moved slowly again, and they will be repairing at the post station in the north of the town, where there are residences, as well as horse feed and hay for the livestock.

Ren Xiaosu watched all this silently from the side, and he suddenly understood why this group of people urged Mego to go on the road.

The people at the bottom of this wizard country have abnormal worship and belief in wizards. No matter how many customs clearance documents a caravan brings, it is not as easy to use as a wizard sitting in charge.

When the wizard is in the team, he can even save the time of checking the goods when passing through many towns. Even the town defenders who insist on checking will not check too carefully.

So, Mego is being used as a passport by others.

As for Mego, she triumphantly said to Ren Xiaosu in a low voice: "How about it, seeing people respect me so much, do you want to become a wizard even more? Don't worry, I will definitely help you choose the Eye of True Seeing this time. "

Ren Xiaosu rolled his eyes. If he hadn't followed this time and helped Mego bless the "protagonist" fate, I'm afraid Mego wouldn't even know how he died...
