Chapter 230: Grand Duke’s Reward (Part 2)

The day passed peacefully.
In the early morning of the next morning, Luo Lin's canonization ceremony will be held. Envoys sent by nobles from all over the world have all come, and all kinds of carriages have parked in the square.
Luo Lin was arrested by the courtesy officer in the castle, and began to temporarily correct his manners and change his clothes.
His original elven battle armor was not in accordance with etiquette. He took it off and replaced it with the magnificent ceremonial battle armor of the Principality. The shield was not very beautiful, and the sword was too heavy, too heavy, and too evil. Next, put on the exquisite noble ritual sword.
Anyway, as soon as he sorted it out, Luo Lin was dizzy and let these fussy etiquette officials at the mercy.
Finally, at nine o'clock in the morning, someone came over and shouted: "The guests are all here, and the ceremony has begun!"
An attendant led Luo Lin to walk outside the gate, and when he reached the square, a war horse with all white fur and also covered in a ribbon was pulled over. This was Luo Lin's mount.
After getting on the horse, the attendants led the horse and walked to the Heroes' Hall in front of the castle, which was used to enshrine the nobles in the past.
When you get to the ground, get off your horse and enter the hall through the back door. From here, you can see the situation in the hall. With a quick glance, Luo Lin can see that the empty hall of heroes in the past has been crowded with people. They are all aristocrats and famous people from all over the world, at least thousands of them.
He was led to the door of the Hall of Heroes.
"Lord Rollin is here!" A courtesy officer shouted, because he has not been officially canonized, so his title is still Lord.
Then Luo Lin walked from the entrance of the Hall of Heroes, along the newly laid red carpet on the ground, under the gaze of thousands of gorgeously dressed nobles, knights, and church personnel, and slowly walked towards Grand Duke Lehman who was upwind in the hall. .
Grand Duke Lehman is also dressed up today. He wears a crown of golden gems on his head. On the body is a gorgeous grandpa gown. He was holding a silver crown in his hand. There was also a messenger beside him holding a tray with several volumes of papers on it.
The first one on the left of Grand Duke Lehman was a white-haired old man. This old man was plainly dressed and somewhat constrained, but no one dared to despise him. He was the famous Red Moon Sword Saint Parasen for 200 years.
Parasen was next to his disciples, and then the great nobles and knights of the principality. On the right side of the Grand Duke is the church observer. The Archbishop of the Holy Light with a golden robe, the cardinal with a silver rim and white robe, the knight commander of the glorious knights, and anybody in the church with faces and faces are here.
This battle is unprecedentedly grand. A viscount’s canonization ceremony needs to be so grand, right?
With doubts, Luo Lin stepped forward and knelt on one knee in front of Duke Lehman.
Grand Duke Lehman saw an unopened sword on Luo Lin's shoulder. The canonization ceremony began.
The ceremony was simple, and there was a formal exchange of answers. After swearing on the respective duties and rights of the lord and vassals, the final canonization begins.
Grand Duke Lehman picked up a volume of papers, opened it, and began to read: "In 1160 the sacred calendar, I, the master of the Duchy of Lehman, Vincent Lehman canonized Rollinswater as hereditary Earl, Maple County in the Northern Red Maple Province. , Levine County is its territory..."
After reading this, the whole hall was in chaos, just as Grand Duke Lehman thought, all kinds of noise suddenly broke out.
"What?! Why is the earl count?"
"What is his merit!"
"It's a nonsense!" Someone relied on themselves to hide in the crowd, and began to speak rudely.
"This kind of thing has never happened in the four hundred years of the Principality. Before the canonization, the Grand Duke must have drunk too much." Someone sneered.
Before the promotion of the baron, no one has any opinion. This Luo Lin has such a force, it is natural to be a baron. In fact, the great knights of the duchy are all barons.
After that, the Grand Duke was changed to Viscount. Although everyone felt a little dissatisfied, they all recognized that this man defeated the orc Martial Saint. This force is indeed very powerful and young. Such a genius must be treated kindly. .
But now, Grand Duke Lehman didn’t even say it, so he changed the title to earl and sent out to two counties. Although this territory belongs to the Lehman family, the Grand Duke would give it to anyone he likes, but a country must have laws. , How can it be so messy?
This is the earl! Sitting on two counties, with a population of nearly one million, and a figure like a great official in the frontiers, Luo Lin has only been a little lord. Can he stand this?
Is it possible that Grand Duke is brain-dead, rushing to give away the generals?
If you want to give away someone, why do you send a lord who just came over? Wouldn't it be better to send us veterans?
Dissatisfaction, questioning, and even swearing, all kinds of thoughts circulated in the minds of these nobles. If it were not for the face of the Grand Duke, they might just scream out.
Luo Lin was also surprised, didn't he say a good Viscount? Why did he raise him one level in just two days? Is this great prince too generous?
Of course, as a profiteer, he certainly wouldn't say anything at this time. The earl is the earl. He has a big appetite, and if he eats it, no matter what other people do not accept, as long as the territory is in his hands, it will be stable in one year, and two years will be enough for him to build the same ground as an iron bucket. At that time, He himself is a legendary powerhouse, who is afraid of coming?
The noise in the hall was getting higher and higher, and it was about to lose control. Archbishop Shengguang coughed and raised his hand to show that he had something to say.
Archbishop Shengguang still needs to give his face, so the noise is much lower, but there are still a lot of buzzing.
The archbishop said: "Half a month ago, in the southern town of White Deer, Earl Rowling defeated nearly four thousand undead and bought a lot of time for the retreat of many small towns. His actions saved millions of civilians. . This is a great feat, so I think this canonization is reasonable."
"Then the southerner, what does it matter to our principality?" Someone refused.
"Rolin is also a southerner. He made great contributions in Vendôme, but this is the Principality. To make him count, go to the western front and kill 10,000 Aoraki dogs!"
With Archbishop Shengguang taking the lead, Grand Duke Lehman felt the pressure less than half. He pressed his hand down and said: "Yesterday, Earl Rowling defeated three assassins from the Aoraki Kingdom outside the city. The club rescued my daughter Angela. This is my reward for him."
The Brotherhood of Iron Hands in the Kingdom of Aoraki? Ok. This incident came out. The voice of opposition was immediately reduced. As the nobles of the Principality of Lehman, who does not know the strength of the Brotherhood of the Iron Hand, their principality was killed by these assassins in two divisions.
Although the objection was lowered, there were still some people who were dissatisfied. This reward is too rich and makes people envy and hate.
"Maybe it's just a few little assassins. He tried his luck." Someone murmured.
"Who knows. Maybe there is no such thing at all."
"Okay!" A voice suddenly appeared, the volume was not loud. But with unspeakable majesty, he is the Red Moon Sword Saint.
At this moment, the old swordsman is not at all decayed. His eyes are electric, looking around the hall, and said indifferently: "The Archbishop of the Holy Light and the Archduke are all facts. The assassins of the Brotherhood of Iron Hands are also powerful and powerful. Samurai. And it was my idea to make Rollin an earl. Who has an opinion?"
There was silence, there was no sound in the hall, and the needle dropped, and no one had any opinions.
This is the majesty of the guardian of the principality.
The canonization went on smoothly afterwards. The silver jewel crown was also worn on Luo Lin's head, and then he was the earl of the two counties in the Duchy of Lehman. It can also be regarded as a great official in frontiers.
But things are not over yet.
Grand Duke Lehman smiled and said, "There is one more thing today."
He beckoned to the crowd, Angela in full costume walked up, and then the Grand Duke smiled and said: "My daughter Angela loves swordsmanship, but the unfamiliar teacher is giving directions. Count Rollin, I know that your sword skills are unparalleled. You teach Angela swordsmanship, what do you think?"
Grand Duke Lehman's tone was very sincere, his expression was full of requests, and he did not have the commanding tone of the superior.
In fact, the Grand Duke couldn't help it. Judging from the signs that his daughter and Luo Lin got along in the past two days, the marriage might not be possible. This can't happen, but you have to build a relationship, so you can become a master and apprentice.
Of course, Grand Duke Lehman didn't say that he was going to die, he just asked Luo Lin to give some pointers, and he did not let his daughter apprentice with certainty. Because both parties are young men and women, and staying together for a long time, who knows whether they will have feelings, the determined master-disciple relationship will become an obstacle to further development.
Therefore, in order to get closer to Luo Lin, Grand Duke Lehman really tried his best.
Luo Lin was stunned. He glanced at Angela, but saw the girl glance at him with a sly look, then lowered her head, and suddenly realized that the title of the earl was still a tuition fee.
What else can he say? The Grand Duke is so sincere. He just canonized him as an earl of the Principality, and he has given so much land to let you teach his daughter. It’s not a big deal. If you have to refuse this, it’s too ignorant of current affairs. The nobles in this hall could drown Luo Lin with one spit.
Luo Lin smiled bitterly and saluted: "I will teach with all my heart, as long as Miss Angela is willing to learn, I will never hide privately."
Grand Duke Lehman smiled contentedly: "Okay, okay, then I will trouble you."
The matter was settled, and then it was a banquet. Although Luo Lin didn't like this noisy scene, but this time he had to attend. He was toasted repeatedly, and his face flushed with drinking, and he was almost drunk.
Finally, when he returned to his room, Luo Lin called out. There was only one more disciple, and he was still a disciple known by the entire Principality. This was a big trouble.
Think about it, teach and teach, what's the big deal.
With a certain idea, Luo Lin put the matter down and fell asleep on the bed.
The next day, Luo Lin packed up and saluteed, said goodbye to the grand duke, and rushed to his own territory. As Luo Lin's disciple ~EbookFREE.me~ Angela naturally followed. She did not ride in a carriage, but followed Luo Lin on horseback.
Two people, with more than a dozen elite guards, went straight north to the Red Maple Province.
Luo Lin defeated the three tulip warriors. It is estimated that this matter has put the kingdom of Aoraki under control, so no accident happened along the way. After half a month, the group first arrived in Levine County, which is a little bit south.
Because it is located in the north, and the terrain is flat and there are many grasslands, Levine County is basically dominated by grazing. It is not rich, but it is not poor, and it is considered medium. There is also a city in this county called Neverwinter City. There is a castle in the city. It was originally the residence of Duke Lehman, but now it naturally belongs to Luo Lin.
Looking at the endless grassland, the densely covered grassland with cattle and sheep, and also said that there are cities on high ground in the distance, Luo Lin felt that he was very open-minded.
Now, this land belongs to him.
The land of the two counties, with a population of nearly 800,000, with such a huge force, as long as it is well managed, it is enough for the future army of orcs, the undead, and even the demon army to play a few games. (To be continued...)
