The Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 379 The Duke of the North

"It's good that you can realize how powerful the other party is. This proves that you have an idea in mind." Xingge nodded, and then said: "This generation of the Shillington family is not strong, nor weak. It is a medium-strong existence among the eight nobles in the royal capital. The Marquis of Shillington is also a member of the cabinet and the Minister of Construction, and has a close relationship with the king."

"But speaking of it, among the eight nobles, the other seven nobles combined are not as strong as that family."

Xingge asked the maid to pour a glass of red wine, then came to the window, looked into the distance, and drank a sip of red wine with a smile.

"If things go well, I will also become an ally of that person." Luther shrugged with a smile.

Because of his own strength and level, Luther has the ability to tease almost all the great nobles among the eight nobles, but there is only one great noble that Luther can't deal with.

That's the person Xingge mentioned.

One of the eight nobles, the Grand Duke of the North.

The whole of Prussia is now alienated from the monarch and his subjects, and they are in harmony in appearance but in reality. This is because a major event happened in history.

This major event happened more than 200 years ago, when the last generation of the King of Prussia fought a war with the last generation of the Grand Duke of the North. The last generation of the Grand Duke of the North narrowly won the war, and the last generation of the King of Prussia was disgraced.

The vassal won the king, which caused the king's prestige to plummet.

So far, the Kingdom of Prussia has become such a situation.

This Grand Duke of the North owns five provinces in the north. This Grand Duke of the North is the protector of the real nobles of the kingdom, and the most threatening real noble.

In addition, the Marquis of Cambridge in the West has a fiefdom in one province, and the Marquis of Cambridge can control the real nobles in another province. It means that this Marquis can control the military power of two provinces.

The Marquis of Cambridge joined forces with the Grand Duke of the North to confront the king.

This is the most important reason why Orange, a province, and the Earl's family of Libya can be independent when they are not strong.

The Grand Duke of the North, the protector of all real nobles.

If the king dares to touch the Libyan earl, then the Duke of the North will join forces with the Marquis of Cambridge and send troops to threaten the king.

And if Luther gets the title and becomes one of the only three great nobles in Orange, he will also become an ally of the Duke of the North and an opponent of the king.

Of course, that is a matter for the future. The current king and the great nobles on the ground are on the same front because of the rise of the new party.

If they don't unite to deal with the new party, the kingdom will be destroyed and all the nobles will not be able to survive on their own.

What lies before Luther is a big chess game. Before that, Luther must take this opportunity to get a title.

At least get a viscount.

Allies and enemies.

Identity and position may change in the blink of an eye. Politics is a very complicated thing.

Old Sol understood it next to him, but he just didn't say anything and ate cake.

Anyway, my son has grown up, he is shrewd and calculating, and he has the style of me in my old days. Old Sol thought to himself while picking up the juice and drinking it.

"Gulp, gulp." Alena had finished her juice, and then happily said to the maid next to her: "Another cup."

"By the way, another cake, and by the way, I want strawberry flavor." Alena looked at the empty cake plate again and added another sentence.

Her feet swayed, and she was happy.

"Yes." The maid wanted to laugh a little, but she held it back, and responded and went down to get more food.

Luther looked at these two foodies, and his mouth twitched, and he made our family lose face.

"It's almost noon, let's have a meal first." Xingge also laughed, and then ordered the male servant to go and prepare a big meal.

All the people in the group were big eaters, so this lunch was a lot of food and took a lot of time.

One and a half hours later.

When everyone was full and drank enough, picked up toothpicks to pick their teeth, and picked up napkins to touch their mouths. The news also came back.

"Master, it's a member of the Shillington family, named Lucy, Shillington, a senior knight. He doesn't have much combat power, but he is good at using the reputation of the Shillington family to do some shady things. He made a lot of money."

The housekeeper whispered.

"I knew that the person who did this was just a small pawn. Shillington is one of the eight nobles after all, and their leaders are disdainful of doing these shady businesses, especially this kind of small business."

Luther said.

The mastermind has been found.

But the Shillington family is not an irrelevant person. If it weren't for the prominent name of Shillington, how could this guy named Lucy, Shillington dare to do this kind of business?

Today, I will not only kill this Lucy, Shillington, but also follow the clues and touch the tiger whiskers of the Shillington family.

"Let's go, kill him. Let's vent our anger for Xiao Baicai." Luther suddenly stood up from the chair, and then remembered that he hadn't wiped his mouth yet, so he picked up the napkin and wiped it, and then walked out.

"Do you know where he is?" Xingge shrugged.

"Uh." Luther turned back a little embarrassedly and looked at the butler angrily.

"Arnold Avenue, No. 77." said the housekeeper.

"Let's go." Xingge stood up and walked out first. Luther, Old Sol, and Alena also walked out.

The Eagle King stood on Luther's shoulders, and Alena jumped and peeped. She stared at the golden decorations in this mansion.

Not only was she full, she also wanted to steal something.

"The master has such a good relationship with Xingge, even if I am caught stealing something, I will not be beaten to death, right?" Alena was eager to try.

………….

Arnold Avenue.

The houses on both sides of this avenue are all independent villas. However, this street belongs to the remote area of ​​the capital, so the people who live here are rich and have a certain status in society, but they are not rich people.

Villa No. 77.

This villa is first-class among the nearby villas. It covers an area of ​​about one and a half acres and has a white villa with 23 rooms.

There is a small lawn in front of the villa.

There are two knights guarding the gate, which is quite impressive.

The owner of this villa is Lucy Shillington.

This distant branch of the Shillington family is 52 years old this year and a senior knight. In a big family like Shillington, a senior knight in his 50s is of course a mediocre person.

In fact, Lucy Shillington suffered a lot when he was young because of his mediocre qualifications. Until Lucy Shillington found that the reputation of the Shillington family was very useful, he did a lot of things and made a lot of money.

Finally, he bought the No. 77 mansion on this avenue, married a young and beautiful wife, and gave birth to three children.

And Lucy Shillington gradually became a hegemon of the dark forces in the capital city, specializing in some shameful activities.

For example, the slave business.
