135th Targaryen (3)
On the next day, Nainabrando wore a black dress and decorated carbon iron gauntlets, took a group of guards and servants, boarded a luxurious four-wheeled carriage, and left Kaji's lord's castle in the early morning. Go to the Flower Lane in the Torefo district of the outer city, and visit the Earl Targaryen that people say.
The garden mansion was full of people. Outside the brand-new metal fence, businessmen gathered together and chatted with each other. Countless mercenaries were looking forward to it, and the messengers of several mercenaries also lingered here, unwilling to leave.
Of course, there are criminals, many refugees and bandits hiding in the shadows, staring maliciously at the scenery in the garden.
How can there be so many people?
Naina was puzzled. Seeing this scene, he did not immediately enter the Flower Lane, but sent servants to investigate first.
Soon the attendants came back to report and inquired about some situations.
This noble noble who is said to be from the central free trade city-state is quite rich and extremely generous, and became famous in a short period of time, but in places like the Kaji border, the name of wealth is not a good reputation, and he immediately summoned countless caring people. Coveting and peeping.
When Earl Targaryen first arrived, under the temptation of wealth, many rats who usually hide in the dark swarmed in. These vagrants and bandits joined forces with each other, relying on their numbers, they even planned to rush into the garden and rob them. .
As a result, the more than one hundred people didn't even see the Earl, and they couldn't even get close to the noble mansion. The Earl's attendants were quite powerful, like a well-trained elite army. All these bandits and refugees cut off their limbs and threw them into the sewage river.
Under the deterrence of blood, the rogue thieves did not dare to act rashly anymore, but they still wandered here, looking for opportunities.
Those mercenaries were attracted by the earl's generosity. It was said that the commission of the earl's attendants was ten times that of the dangerous employment tasks on the ordinary street. Working for the noble earl for a year was worth a lifetime of hard work.
These people gathered here looking forward to it, all eager to serve the earl. Although the earl's attendants had proved their strength, the men still hoped that they would be the first lucky ones to be hired.
As for the merchants, they are not in the same world as bandits and mercenaries. They are waiting for the manager of the mansion to purchase items. I heard that if the man needs them, even if they ask for 50% more than the market price, as long as there is stock, the manager of the mansion will immediately respond. start.
"So this Earl Targaryen has only been here for a few days, and he has already received a lot of response in the outer city of Kaji?" Naina raised his eyebrows and asked in a higher tone.
The attendants didn't dare to respond, Master Naina was well-bred, but his raised eyebrows already showed his faint anger.
Overwhelm the guests! He cursed in his heart.
It took a long time for Naina to suppress the anger in his heart, stabilize his emotions and show a gentle smile. He is what people call an old aristocrat, who pays attention to all manners and manners, and maintains honor and decency, at least on the surface.
"Go and knock the door," he said.
The carriage moved forward slowly, and Brando's flag made the mob surrounded outside the garden mansion shudder, and immediately retreated, but still did not leave, observing and inquiring at the alley.
While the attendant went to inquire, Naina also glanced at it implicitly. From the carriage, one could see the outer wall of the mansion, a corner of the inner garden, and servants in uniform coming and going.
I have to say that if the layout of the garden is arranged by the nobleman himself, then his aesthetics is indeed from a high level, whether it is the layout or the mood,
Or the choice of grass in the flower garden and the arrangement of the springs in the pool, the noble-born Nainabrando could not find any faults, and even admired them.
It's like the royal design of the empire on which the sun never sets. Naina was secretly frightened. He longed for the never-ending empire in the south, so he read books about the empire on which the sun never sets.
Naina didn't know that while he was looking at the garden, there were eyes looking at him too.
"The flag of the Brando family is finally here."
Caesar stood at the window, studied the visitor from a great distance, and studied the visitor more carefully than Nainar observed the mansion and gardens.
"This guy is not Roy."
He made a disappointed gesture, started to walk back, and sat down again: "This face looks like an out-and-out aristocrat, with wide and protruding cheekbones, high forehead and deep eye sockets, thin and thin mouth, this guy Similar to Roy with two points, but looks a bit older."
"come yet?"
The little guy Luna was flying up and down around him. She had changed the emerald green knee-length skirt she had always liked, and put on a dark black gauze dress, and said happily: "Caesar Caesar, I'm a little nervous , how should I behave, should I change my personality? Should I be resolute and indifferent, or should I be wronged and cowardly?"
"You can stay the same as before."
Caesar touched her head, and after using the human disguise, it was much easier to do this action: "These humans have never seen you before, so how would they know what the fairy in the forest next to the black dragon is like."
"And you don't need to show off, just show up and show your existence."
Bringing the Fairy of the Forest, not only will not arouse Brando's suspicion and expose the disguise, but will make them believe that they have nothing to do with the Black Dragon. This is a reverse thinking, and Caesar is familiar with it.
At this time, the servant disguised by the doppelganger has come to report.
"Let him come in, pay attention to please, don't forget the etiquette of human beings." Caesar agreed.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty... Your Excellency."
The doppelganger then retreated.
When Nainabrando walked into the living room, his steps were as heavy and rigid as if he was meeting a prince. He really couldn't guess what kind of person the other party was, so it was more appropriate to keep it solemn when meeting for the first time.
The eldest son of the earl, except for the red velvet silk scarf around his neck, is completely black, except for the thin red piping on the buttonhole of the inner lining, which complements the silk scarf, showing a refined aristocratic style.
"Hello, sir."
Although Nainabrando had great self-control, when he bowed to the nobleman, he couldn't help but look at the other party with obvious curiosity.
The dress of the other party is extremely simple, but even the most picky old nobleman can't pick out the slightest bit of sarcasm, and the whole body is full of elegant taste. The coat, gloves and short boots are all from the hands of masters, and the texture is extremely expensive. The finest Bissergon cowhide.
During the conversation, Naina played a game of mind. He did not call the other party the earl, but a general word "sir". This will lay the groundwork for him to trace the identity of the other party later. This is the purpose of this visit.
Naina would never have too much contact with a person of unknown origin. Even if the black dragon's lurking guesses were ruled out, the other party might be an undercover agent sent by Grand Duke Ryan.
So when they met this time, Naina didn't think about anything else, just wanted to touch the bottom of the other party.
Caesar also knew this. If he wanted to get in touch with Roy and other core members of Brando, he probably had to pass this level first.
This guy thought about coercion by force, but after thinking about it for a while, Caesar still gave up on this plan. With Brando's performance in the last war, if the black dragon's true body is exposed, can force coercion be effective? It's really hard to say when it works.
