Chapter 362 Reward

The pirates in Westport were eliminated!

The great news spread quickly throughout the capital Jingyao, and the common people breathed a sigh of relief.

Recently, people dared not leave the city for fear of being robbed and killed by pirates in disguise. You know, in history, when pirates were rampant, there were many examples of robbery deep inland. These guys were not regular troops, and no one could recognize them in civilian clothes.

It was strange to say, what happened to the Kingdom of Aldo, rebellion and pirates, did they offend the Lord of Light? Fortunately, another disaster was gone.

Harrison Abbott rode a tall horse and led his soldiers to enter the capital from the west gate of Jingyao with pride, enjoying the treatment of a hero.

Along with the cheers of the people, beautiful girls on both sides of the street kept throwing flowers on this young general who was said to be single.

Hansel, who followed Harrison closely, looked at his brother with envy and jealousy.

Alas, what else can be done? Although they were born to the same father, in terms of bloodline, my brother is the son of the legal wife, and I am... well, let's not talk about it. In terms of status, my brother was a royal guard before, and I am just a small tax officer in the suburbs of the royal capital. Even now, I am just working for a country lord.

Wait, country lord?

Seriously speaking, Earl Graman seems to be no longer a simple country lord!

He actually controls three earldoms. In terms of area and population, Henry Ferdinand, the head of the nobles in Northwest Bay, does not have as many as him, right?

Not to mention the various workshops that this guy has opened that can be said to make a fortune every day. Just the porcelain item must make a lot of money, right? Christopher, the head of the caravan of the Foster family of the Horn Bay Alliance, revealed to Hansel after drinking that every batch of porcelain shipped to Horn Bay has already been owned, because the buyer has placed an order long ago. In Horn Bay, porcelain has become a symbol of identity and status.

Two years ago, when I first arrived in Arda as a royal commissioner, Paul Graman was still threatened by pirates. Now his situation has completely reversed.

Following such a lord, the future does not seem so bad.

"Lord Abbott!"

A shout interrupted Hansel's memory.

Who is calling me? Hansel looked carefully and saw that he was looking for his brother.

I saw a man dressed as a royal attendant stopped the advancing team.

He immediately saluted Harrison.

"Lord Abbott, His Majesty orders you to come to the palace to discuss matters immediately."

Harrison did not hesitate at all, "Please reply to His Majesty for me, I will rush over immediately."

Tsk, His Majesty the King did not even mention me.

Hansel was not interested anymore and greeted his brother, "I'll go back first."

Harrison grabbed him and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? You have contributed a lot to this battle. Let's go together."

After instructing the troops behind them to hurry back to the camp, the two brothers and several officers came to the palace together.

The place where the king met them turned out to be the Council Hall, which was where His Majesty discussed state affairs with the ministers, which showed his importance to this war to eliminate pirates.

The two entered the Council Hall and found that many people had gathered here, such as the important ministers such as the Prime Minister Rupert and the Minister of Intelligence Merlin, and the Queen Phyllis was also present. In addition, there was a woman who Hansel did not know sitting next to the queen.

Harrison quietly reminded him: "That should be the little princess Irene."

The reason why it should be is because the woman was wearing a veil.

Hansel didn't know much about the king's youngest daughter. After the Abbot family was alienated by the royal family, his father rarely came into contact with the core members of the royal family when he had nothing to do on weekdays, not to mention his second son of illegitimate origin. Only his elder brother could stay in the palace as a guard because of his good reputation.

When he was young, he had seen this princess from afar at the festival, but she was not yet grown up at that time. After that, the little princess went to study in the Bachelor's Tower of Gabela, and Hansel went to work outside Jingyao, and he never saw her again.

All the ministers present focused their eyes on the Abbot brothers. Being stared at by so many high-level power holders, Hansel's body tensed.

"Harrison, congratulations on your great victory. You have worked hard this time."

The king sitting on the throne spoke.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Harrison put his hand on his chest and saluted the king. "I dare not say that it is hard to serve the kingdom."

"Yeah. Good, good." The king stroked his beard and was very satisfied with the performance of this former guard. He regretted not promoting him to be a general earlier. It was all his fault that his father was not serious and cheated his son.

Harrison said: "This victory is not the credit of me alone. It was the fleet of the Northwest Bay that defeated the pirate warships, so we could fight smoothly on land."

He glanced at his brother beside him, "It was Hansel who contacted us."

The king was more satisfied with him for not taking credit.

The king had read the specific course of the battle from the battle report, which Harrison wrote in great detail. To be honest, there was nothing outstanding about this battle. Harrison blocked the West Port, repeatedly investigated the intelligence in the city, and then waited until the Northwest Fleet arrived and had an absolute advantage before taking action. It can only be said that it was mediocre.

However, the king now likes this kind of steady and steady generals. The kingdom can't withstand any storms now.

"You two have done a great job. Harrison, do you want any reward?"

Harrison said without thinking: "His Majesty asked me to fight me to the south, even if I was a soldier, I would like it."

The king laughed, "Let you be a soldier, the Father will punish me. This pirate is not clear, and it is most likely to be sent by Jils. Take it lightly, you will continue to stay in West Port in the future, let's take a whole of the coastal defense.

"Yes, His Majesty." Harrison accepted the appointment of the king. Although he did not go to the south as his wish just now, it would be good to stay in the army.

The king looked at Hanseer, and his voice sinked a little: "What about you, the second son of the Abbot family?"

Hansel's eyes showed a hint of wings and said carefully: "Your Majesty, I want to stay in the king's capital ... or ... or go to the Southern Army to do things."

There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!

He heard that the old -fashioned Matthew Starmann had already obtained an important position under the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and was favored by the ministers. The bright prospect was waiting for this guy.

Ah ~ It ’s not possible to stay away from the center of power. It’ s really impossible to catch up.

"No!" The king refused categorically.

Hansel's heart was half cold.

The king said: "You have to stay as the representative of the royal family to stay in the Northwest Bay as the leader of Jingyao and the local lords. In addition, enjoy the thousands of gold coins and do things well."

Do you still care about your own pedigree? Hanseer's discouraged, "Do it" in that sentence, "Do it as if he heard it". Don't get up to the mind. "

This is really a bit wrong with King Rodnen. After this battle and the previous performance, the Northwest Gulf shows considerable potential, with food and weapons. I thought.

What miracles appeared there, or the world saw it? Isn't it a place where birds have not shit?

Or ...

"Hanseer, you must advise the local lord after you go back, and you must be better to the people. Although loyalty to the kingdom is good, you must also use the civil power with caution and not to ask too much."

Well, this is the most reasonable explanation that His Majesty the King can think of. How do you think that food and weapons may appear out of thin air. It must be that the count of Grandan poured hair on the leaders to show himself.

The ministers here have said that they are echoed to comment.

"Your Majesty is right. This is our experience for many years. I hope he can listen well."

"I heard that that Earl Graman was less than 20 years old. No wonder it was so frizzy, young people."

The loyal dog legs of Wang Guo have to stay well, so as not to be hung up by the mobs because of squeezing over one day.

Princess Irene beside the queen covered her lips gently, as if laughing.

"Yes, His Majesty, I will persuade him."

Some discouraged Hanse did not explain anything, and followed the words.

His Majesty nodded and looked around and asked: "So, what rewards should this count for this count?

"Dear, do you have any good suggestions?"
