Chapter 92 (2/2)
”No.” the old man standing in front of Lu Wen's body looked equally serious: ”I just want to ask the count where he went today?”
”I just went to inspect the surrounding territory and solved a few small things by the way.” Lu Wen, who didn't want to talk to him at all, dismissed at will: ”is there a problem?”
”Of course, you don't know how much trouble you have caused to our humble servants by leaving the castle without authorization.” Barry sighed heavily: ”abandon your duty as Lord and solve those idle Affairs...”
”I am the count, and I have the right to decide what is my duty and what is my business!” Lu Wen directly interrupted him: ”you are not accusing me of doing wrong?”
”No.” the old man said with a sincere expression: ”it's just for your safety, count. Shenlin castle is not a peaceful place. If you leave the castle without permission, we humble servants don't know how to protect you.”
This was close to the naked threat. Lu Wen, who clenched his teeth, held down the armrest of the chair, and his tight shoulders and forearms trembled slightly.
”As your loyal minister, we are certainly willing to help you as much as possible, but it also needs a basic degree - but how can we help you if you don't inform us in advance?”
”So, the next time you plan to use your skills, please inform us in advance. After the nobles of Shenlin Castle study it, we will give you a satisfactory answer.”
”You can leave, Barry Senna! Grandpa!” Reuven said almost gritting his teeth.
”Thank you, count.” the old man bent stiffly, bowed indifferently to Reuven, and turned away from the castle hall.
Will senna, who stood where he was and didn't know what to do, hurried away after being glared at by ruwen. The whole hall was empty, leaving only Lauren and ruwen.
”This old man dares to threaten me!” the surprisingly angry Lu Wen roared out directly, gasping like a wounded lion: ”he dares to threaten me?!”
Lorraine standing on the side calmly looked at Lu Wen and roared. It's useless to say anything at this time. Only let him vent himself.
Lorraine was not surprised that the other party would do so - if it were himself, of course, he would not want the count to run around and leave his control.
In fact, they were worried that ruwen would gradually establish his prestige and let the nobles and peacekeepers led by the count recognize his rule, because that would mean the complete loss of power of the Seine family.
In order to protect the titles, powers, interests, especially interests belonging to themselves and their families, people will do anything.
”We haven't done enough.”
Lu Wen, who gradually calmed down, murmured like talking to himself: ”just calming the contradictions of several families is not enough to make the whole count fully submit. Those nobles will certainly not be convinced, and the civilians don't even know who I am!”
”I need more intense and direct means to show my authority as an earl.” Lu Wen suddenly smiled: ”my father often said that only by making nobles fear and civilians love, can I become a qualified Lord.”
”What he said is very reasonable.”
”So what can you do?” the young count asked his wizard adviser tentatively, ”don't be particularly clear, even if it's just one or two ideas.”
Lauren looked at Reuven, who was looking forward to him very much, and hesitated for a moment.
”Indeed... There is a way.” the black haired wizard nodded, ”but this method is very risky. Indeed, if it succeeds, the Seine family will never challenge you again; but if there is a little accident...”
”You may be ready to fight the rebellion!”
