Chapter 270 The Clown Is Making a Fuss
Silver Wing Territory.
Because the title of Viscount has been temporarily stripped by the Archon, whether it can be restored is still a question.
So the Silver Wing Viscount Territory, in theory, became the Silver Wing Territory.
Luther's title is also the Silver Wing Governor.
But before that, many people in the Silver Wing family fought for the right of inheritance.
Upon hearing the news that the Silver Wing Viscount was killed and left no blood heirs, a large number of people with the right of inheritance returned to Silver Wing City.
The Silver Wing Viscount is an only child, and the Silver Wing Viscount's father is also an only child.
The Silver Wing Viscount's grandfather has two younger brothers. These two younger brothers have derived a large number of descendants. Now there are three main strong men in these two bloodlines.
They are Oren, Smith. Hansa, Smith. Darren, Smith.
Their identities are merchants, knights, and officials.
But they are all high-level knights, among whom Darren and Smith are elite knights, and they are young, only 38 years old this year.
Now that the previous generation of Viscount Silver Wing was killed by the New Party and the New Party is active, if you want to compete for the position of heir, then those with strong strength have an advantage.
These three Mr. Smiths, as well as a large number of other Mr. Smiths, and those related to the Silver Wing family, such as Mrs. Smith of the Habsburg family, and even Alice, the eldest daughter of the unremarkable Baron Barton, also came to the Silver Wing City. These people held meetings with the important officials of the Silver Wing Family, intending to compete for the inheritance of the Viscount Silver Wing.
Because the family inheritance right is unclear, if you get the support of most of the important officials and then report to the Earl of Libya, there is a great chance to inherit the title.
Because of this matter, a large number of noble knights gathered in the Silver Wing City, and the vassals were divided into several factions, quarreling with each other and even wanting to duel.
The important officials of the Silver Wing Family, Bi Xing and Alton, have long been unable to hold their ground.
What is in front of the Silver Wing leader is very likely to be a big riot.
Silver Wing Castle.
Of course, the castle had no owner at this moment, but the castle did not fall into chaos, because fortunately, Alton temporarily entered the castle and stabilized the guards, male and female servants.
In the castle hall, a good drama of heir competition was being staged.
At the end of the red carpet in the hall, the throne of the viscount was empty. Fortunately, Alton moved a chair and sat next to the throne. He looked at the quarreling crowd below expressionlessly, and his eyebrows showed fatigue.
Now the quarrel is very intense.
If it turns into a duel or a bloody incident, then the Silver Wing Family should be destroyed.
The guardian knight sequence of the Silver Wing Family has been defeated, and the remaining ones are the vassal knights and the member knights of the Silver Wing Family. If these people fight.
Even if the position of the viscount is finally won, I am afraid it will not survive the storm of the new party.
"There is evidence that the target of Viscount Silver Wing this time is Luther and Pompey. Because of the chaos, the new party took advantage of the situation. Under the threat of the new party and Luther and Pompey, only stronger knights can hold their ground. I am younger, stronger, and more likely to reach the level of great knights, so the succession right of Viscount Silver Wing should be mine."
A handsome noble man patted his chest, as if to show how powerful he was.
He is the most favorable contender for the succession right, Darren Smith.
And his words also resonated with many vassals and other members of the Silver Wing family present.
"That's right, if another waste is allowed to inherit the viscountship, then the Silver Wing family will be finished. So put away your damn greed and let Darren inherit the title."
Someone shouted.
"You think being a lord is a duel? Lords don't need military force. Instead, they need political acumen. As long as the lord can win over the vassals and knights in the territory and conduct diplomacy, he can stabilize the territory and even coexist peacefully with the Pompey family. And you, Darren Smith. Before this, you were just a wealthy nobleman, and your position was just a knight teacher in a wealthy family, and you were one of them. You have no experience in governing. If you inherit the title and fight with the Pompey family, then the Silver Wing family should also perish."
A handsome but somewhat fat man came out and said contemptuously to Darren Smith.
This man is Oren Smith, a wealthy businessman.
"Yes, even Oren is better than you in this respect."
An equally handsome man with two big beards and an upright posture came out and said with a smile.
He is Hansa Smith, an official in charge of a big city.
"This bastard is mocking me for not being as good as him in governing." Mr. Oren glanced at Mr. Hansa, with anger in his eyes.
The words of these two people resonated with many people present.
Because the damned previous Viscount Silver Wing was an incompetent knight and an incompetent lord. Look at what disaster he brought to the Silver Wing family?
He was killed by the New Party, and fell out with Earl Windsor and the kid from the Pompeii family.
We no longer need such an incompetent lord.
So the three factions split into two, one supporting the military lord and the other supporting the political lord, and the quarrel was so intense that no one knew when it would stop.
Mrs. Smith was a member of the Silver Wing family, and because she was the current head of the Habsburg family, she also had a seat in the hall.
She was one of the few women who could sit in a seat.
Alice, Barton was different. She was just Mrs. Smith's granddaughter. Although she had some relationship with the Smith family, she had no say in the ownership of the title.
She had no status here either.
So she was just here to play soy sauce with Mrs. Smith.
She was charming and exuded a hormone atmosphere, which really attracted many people's eyes. After all, some people loved the country and some people loved beauty.
Besides, there was only one viscount position, and only three people were qualified to do it. It was none of my business.
It would be better to look at the beauty.
Miss Alice leaned back on her grandmother's chair in boredom, and occasionally flirted with these idiots.
Several men didn't know that they were fools in Miss Alice's heart, and they were flattered by it.
"Bored?" Mrs. Smith patted Miss Alice's hand and asked.
"A little." Miss Alice nodded.
"Go out for a walk." Mrs. Smith said, and got up from the chair and went to the outside of the castle with Miss Alice.
This attracted the regretful eyes of the men.
"What do you think?" Mrs. Smith asked Miss Alice when she came to a corner in the castle.
"It's just a clown. The most important thing is what the little man is thinking. Will he allow the title of the Silver Wing Family to be inherited?"
Alice's eyes were blurred, as if she had reached the Golden City through an endless journey.
The news that the Earl of Libya convened the Grand Council of Orange Nobles has spread, and their Silver Wing Family has lost the Viscount, so they have no right to say anything in the council.
But Pompey and his son, Baron Philip, went.
I heard that the person who took the lead in this council was the little man.
And the Viscount Silver Wing was most likely killed by the conspiracy of that little man.
Miss Alice was not sad about the death of Viscount Silver Wing.
She was not sad about the death of her estranged father, Baron Barton, and her stepmother, let alone the Viscount who was even more distant by blood.
Alice was very smart and knew who was currently dominating the fate of Silver Wing.
Who held the power.
"I hope he can let the Silver Wing family go." Mrs. Smith also knew this, so she couldn't help but sigh.
"Since Habsburg moved to Pompeii, has your relationship with the Viscount become cold? Why are you sighing?" Alice asked curiously.
"But I am a member of the Smith family after all." Mrs. Smith replied.
"There is important news. His Excellency the Earl of Libya issued an order of the Archon to temporarily deprive the Viscount Silver Wing of his title and let Luther Pompeii take office as the Governor of Silver Wing."
Just then, a knight rode in on a fast horse.
A bolt from the blue.
