Lord Harland.

Chapter 178 Promotion to Viscount
Although King Charles has been in power for 30 years, he has no experience of joining the army on the front line.

Even though he is a sixth-order knight, he is all made up of precious potions.

He didn't understand the changes in the war situation at all, so he could only listen to the opinions of the following.

And the court bureaucracy is full of various interest groups, supporting different princes, and there are countless struggles every day.

When encountering a dispute that requires him to make a decision, he often decides by his likes and dislikes.

He likes Felix and hates the eldest prince Chris, so he supports the Holland family and suppresses Baron Richard.

As for whether suppressing Richard would be detrimental to the overall situation or cause trouble, King Charlie often did not understand.

The reason why he hates the eldest prince Chris actually has a special reason. He found out that the queen was having an affair with Duke Roger.

The queen is the legitimate daughter of Duke Durand, and Duke Roger also has great influence in the royal family.

Even with solid evidence, it is difficult to gain broad support for disposing of them.

Not to mention that the rumors heard by King Charles may also be court struggles, which are based on rumors.

Because of this barrier, King Charles will continue to support his favorite Prince Felix, hoping to support Felix as his heir.

King Charles felt very humiliated by being beaten up by the Duke of Brenner, but the reality had to make him endure the humiliation.

From King Louis onwards, four generations of kings lived in the shadow of Brenner.

Only his father, Philip, who was a ninth-order epic knight and also had a high prestige in the army, would receive Brenner's limited respect.

Although he is a high-ranking king, but facing Brener, Charlie has no ability to resist.Because in the basic set of the royal family, Brener's influence far exceeds that of the king.

Contrary to Brener's opinion, the Royal Guards and the Mages will not support the king's decision.

Maybe they will tear their faces, or even die unexpectedly, and the throne will be replaced.

"If I die, I don't know what fate will happen to poor little Felix? Anyway, the old man Brener is dying, and he can turn around when he dies. I will write down today's insult, and there will always be When it's time to settle."

King Charlie hated Brener to death in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.He actually couldn't listen to what Brener said.

But Marshal Brenner's decision, King Charles did not dare to object.

Soon a commendation order came from the capital, and Li Cha was granted two territories.

These two territories add up to more than [-] square kilometers. The original Baron Richard's territory was merged and promoted to Viscount Richard's territory, with a combined area of ​​[-] square kilometers.

Counting the territory of William and Sophia, the Harland family's fief has already reached [-] square kilometers, surpassing Viscount Roman, and becoming the hereditary nobleman with the most land in Gerda Province.

Although the fief is large, there are not many people in the territory.

Including the 5 slaves rescued in this war, the population controlled by the Harland family exceeded [-].

Although 5 people can't be said to be small, on a land of [-] square kilometers, there are only five people per square kilometer, which is only better than XZ in Li Cha's previous life.

Although the territory controlled by the Harland family is mountainous, it is actually very suitable for human survival.

If such a large piece of land is developed, it will be enough to feed 30 people.

The bureaucrats who came down from the capital are very good at winking. They found that the Kingdom of Charlie didn't like the Harland family, so naturally they wouldn't get close to Richard.

He didn't even want the gift from Li Cha, as if avoiding the plague god, hastily divided the territory, processed the paperwork, and returned to the capital without stopping.

The reason why the royal capital gave Li Cha such a vast territory was actually giving favors to the ownerless land.

This area is uninhabited land.

If Li Cha gains a foothold here, this territory will become a prominent part of the orc's focus.

With this protrusion, the defense posture of the entire Gerda province will be greatly improved. The Harland Valley is completely in the hands of Richard, and the orcs cannot invade through this valley.

The Kingdom of Grant only paid a little name, and the ambitious nobles had to work hard.

It is very dangerous to become a salient in the border provinces, especially the frequent and intense wars in the northern border. The Earl of Martins is a salient, but it was quickly conquered by the orcs.

Martins is not stable. The Harland family is stronger than the Martins family now, and it is also difficult to gain a firm foothold.

He has been promoted to a title and obtained a new territory, and the time has already entered August.

The orcs' war in Geda province suffered a failure, and the northern army entered Lahe province. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Kiram, the commander of the orc front army, decisively chose to retreat.

In late August, the war was over, and Li Cha also returned to Gerda Province with the main force.

After being promoted to a title, you need to go to the royal capital to participate in the conferring ceremony.

Li Cha hurried to the capital, and it was already the third day of September.

Holding the noble coat of arms, Li Cha entered the hall of the noble council.

The noble council hall has six floors and is 30 meters high. Many magicians worked hard to build this building. There are no joints between the stones, and it seems that they all used mud to turn into stones.

The decoration inside is also very luxurious, using a lot of precious materials.

Richard came to the noble council and found Prince Chris directly.

After falling out with the Holland family, Richard temporarily put aside his rift with Duke Roger and became a staunch supporter of Prince Chris.

After Li Cha's disturbance, it has become impossible for Li Cha to cooperate with the Huo Lan family.

Belet Holland couldn't stay in Gerda province anymore, and was dismissed from his post by King Charles, temporarily in a state of dormancy.However, his cousin Geram was once again reused by King Charles and became the consul of the province of Selldorf.

Selldorf Province is located in the southwest of Nolan, and its status is equivalent to the HEB Province of Richard's previous life.

With this transfer, Jerram's position became even more important.

After Richard came to Nolan, he waited for more than ten days. Together with the three barons, he participated in the knighting ceremony and swore allegiance to the Kingdom of Grant.

After taking the oath, Li Cha suddenly felt a thin chain appear in the spiritual power space, as if locking his soul.

The chain had just entered, and was immediately absorbed by the silver necklace.

After absorbing this bit of power, the silver necklace seemed a little brighter.

An abnormality appeared in the silver necklace, which shocked Li Cha and acted a little ignorant.

Li Cha didn't attend the next banquet and hurried back to the hotel.

Li Cha wanted to find out the secret of this silver necklace, but unfortunately he was helpless. Li Cha hated the feeling that his life was being controlled.He was secretly wary of the silver necklace, not daring to slack off for a moment, and worked very hard every day.I hope that I can advance to legend as soon as possible. Only when the essence of life changes can I figure out the secret of this silver necklace.

After the ceremony was completed, Li Cha immediately returned to the territory and devoted himself to the study of magic.
