Chapter 39 39 The Second Meeting with the People
Chapter 39 The second meeting with the people of the territory
The air on the mountain road in the early morning was very humid, and two fast horses were galloping on the mountain road.
The strong guards on the horse were selected by Ronin to deliver the letter. They would go to Lake Town to ask the Green family for help.
If Baron German is willing to borrow the carrier bird, then the two guards will return. Otherwise, the two of them will go back to Wushan Castle along the way they came and deliver the letter.
At this moment, they have already rushed for dozens of miles, and they will be out of the mountain area in two hours.
But at this moment, on the opposite side of them, two fast horses ran towards them.
"It's the knight from yesterday!"
"It's from Lord Sean, what is he doing here again?"
The two messengers' hearts skipped a beat, and they couldn't help but pull the reins and stop, making way for each other.
The man who came was the knight captain of Lord Sean, Filiton Henry. He didn't expect to meet someone from Shanlin Town here.
Feridon also stopped and asked, "Where are you going?"
The aura of the senior knight made the two guards nervous, but thinking that behind them was Baron Ronin, the lord of Shanlin Town, the two messengers calmed down.
Although ordinary people have no power to fight back in front of the knight, if the other party kills them at will, it will cost a huge price after being known, and a large sum of money is inevitable.
"Dear Knight, we are delivering a letter for Lord Ronin." One of the messengers replied.
Feridon's heart jumped when he heard this. Could it be that he was delivering a letter to Wushan Castle? And it was about things in Sein County and Shanlin Town?
"Do you know what letter Lord Ronin asked you to deliver?" He asked hurriedly.
"Sorry, Knight, we don't know the content of the letter."
Feridon frowned slightly. He came here today to solve the troubles in Sein County. If Ronin's letter really talked about this matter, and he asked the messenger to deliver it, it would be troublesome.
"Don't send your letters for now." Feridon said.
Hearing this, the two messengers were shocked and their heartbeats accelerated. Would this knight really cause trouble for them?
"Sorry, this is something our lord has specifically instructed us to do. Without Lord Ronin's approval, we must deliver the letter. Lord Feridon, you won't stop us, right?"
The two messengers were nervous but not humble.
They had experienced what happened yesterday, and Ronin had to tell them to stay calm before they left.
"Hehe, don't be nervous."
Feridon became gentle, "I'm about to meet your lord, Baron Ronin, and the matter to be discussed may be related to the content of the letter in your hand. If you send it out, it may cause hundreds of gold coins to your lord!"
He was very good at picking the key points when speaking, "If Lord Ronin knew that you didn't listen to my advice and caused him to lose so much, do you think he would blame you?"
"This..."
The two messengers looked at each other, and now they wouldn't.
Seeing the situation, Feridon continued, "How about this, you come back with me to see your master, and then I will tell him that I asked you to come back, and I think he won't blame me."
"In addition, if you need to send letters later, I can lend you the messenger bird led by Sean, which is much faster than running on horses."
The two messengers were still a little hesitant, but thinking that this matter might be related to the master's wealth plan, they finally chose to compromise.
"Haha, okay, then let's go, and I will trouble you to help me inform later!"
Feridon laughed and pulled the reins to continue on his way.
"By the way, Lord Ronin said yesterday that there is a high-level peak professional knight among you. Is it the big guy who is as majestic as a mountain?"
The two messengers turned their horses' heads and said with a smile.
"That's Lord McKen!"
"Lord McKen is so powerful. It is said that if two or three high-level peak knights besiege him at the same time, he can remain invincible!"
A serious light flashed in Feridon's eyes. This McKen is a very difficult opponent, and he must be taken seriously in the future!
In fact, he didn't know that the two messengers said so because Roning specifically told them to do so during the morning training.
Whether it was the people of Shanlin Town or others, anyone who asked about the strength of the guard officer should answer like this.
...
On the other side, Roning was taking McKen, Chahar and others to the grassland west of the town.
Last night, David and Tom had already notified the lord of the meeting with the people, and agreed to meet at the western grassland at 10 o'clock this morning.
Roning didn't have many people around him now. Ten injured guards were recovering, two were sent out as messengers, and five were left at the castle. There were only twelve guards who could accompany him.
Ordinary guards didn't have much combat power in front of the extraordinary people. Roning brought them with him purely for show.
At this moment, the western grassland was crowded with people, and the people had been waiting here early.
The scene of the new lord entering the town yesterday had been spread by the people. Although Princet was a traitor, the lord killed so many people in one breath, and he was a fierce person at first glance.
How dare they let the lord wait here?
At this moment, almost all the people in the territory came here. Even those who were seriously ill and unable to walk were carried by their families.
When Luo Ning arrived outside the grassland, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
His first feeling was: Oh my God, why are there so many people?
The second feeling was joy from the heart.
It’s better to have more people. With more people, the difficulty of completing the [Population Prosperity] achievement will be greatly reduced.
With the appearance of Roning, the originally noisy crowd suddenly quieted down. Everyone focused their eyes on Roning, fearing that making a sound would upset the lord.
It was the first time that Roning was looked at by so many people. It was impossible for him not to be nervous at all.
But now he is a lord, and he can’t lose face in front of his subjects.
He took a deep breath and walked to the high place - there was no specially built high platform, just a small raised earth slope on the grassland.
Well, such a meeting occasion is not grand at all.
But there is no way, this matter was arranged in a hurry, and Roning didn’t have a political officer.
When thinking of this, Roning really had a headache.
Political officers are not like servants, who can be recruited casually.
If you want to play the role of a political officer, you must at least learn to read, right?
Ronin looked at his men. Thirty guards, including David, were not enough. Besides them, there were only McKen, Elron, Chahar and Tom.
Chahar was the steward of the castle. The others were all extraordinary people. They were not suitable to be political officials.
After a short period of drifting thoughts, Ronin's attention returned to the present. He looked at Elron beside him. The other party understood and immediately stepped forward and said loudly:
"The people of Shanlin Town, the blood of the great Wushan family, the Lord of Shanlin Town, Baron Ronin, is standing in front of you at this moment! No matter who you are, now, salute the Lord and offer your loyalty!"
Elron has read a lot of books during this period, including two knight novels. The lines in them are like this. He is active and flexible.
As his voice fell, everyone began to salute.
The people of the serf status knelt on the ground one after another, and the free people bowed deeply to show respect.
Ronin looked over and saw that the people kneeling on the ground accounted for the majority.
But no matter who they were, they all shouted loudly: "Greetings, Lord!"
More than a thousand people shouted at the same time, gathering into a huge sound stream, which made people feel excited.
Roning looked at this group of people and was very excited. This was his foundation.
"I accept your loyalty, people!"
He responded loudly, "From today, we will clarify our respective rights and obligations."
Roning didn't need to say too much about the scene, especially when facing his people.
"As my people, loyalty to Shanlin Town and loyalty to me, Roning Firestorm, is your first principle! You need to work hard for me and work for the construction of Shanlin Town!"
"As your lord, I will use my rights and fulfill my obligations. I will give you strong protection, stable security and a better life!"
After saying these words, Roning glanced at Elron.
The other party understood and immediately said: "The light from the Lord will always protect you!"
As he spoke, he slowly raised his hands, shining with bright light.
This scene shocked the people below.
At this time, a beam of light came out from Elrond's hand and went straight to a wounded man with a bandage on his arm in the crowd.
Everyone followed the direction of the light and looked at the wounded man.
The wounded man was stunned for a moment, and then he cried out in surprise, "My wound is healed!"
He was excited and tore off the bandage on his arm. People were surprised to find that the wound on his arm, which still had blood, had healed.
"Seven Gods, what a magical power this is!" The man looked up at Elrond with awe in his eyes.
At this time, Elrond used the flash magic on Ronin.
At the same time, he shouted: "This is the glory from Lord Ronin. He allowed me to give this light to you and protect you!"
Ronin, who was glowing all over, now raised endless mysterious images in the hearts of these serfs and free people. They opened their mouths and eyes wide, as if they had seen a god.
Macken drew out his sword, his fighting spirit rose, and a beam of light shot straight into the sky, majestic and impressive.
"Let's shout, long live Lord Roning!"
The people were stunned for a moment, and then many of them reacted and followed suit.
The shouts were sparse and not very unified at first, but as more and more people shouted, the shouts became louder and more unified.
"Long live Lord Roning!"
"Long live Lord Roning!"
"Long live Lord Roning!"
