Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 494: Chesca Gains More Knowledge

His Majesty Travis thought about it and felt that it was a bit stupid for a king like him to discuss such a ridiculous thing with a bunch of idiots.

Finally, he simply handed the matter over to Lady Yagris, the highest-ranking female noble in the North.

Of course, he didn't think that his order could go ahead despite Lowry's firm opposition, so he proposed a compromise.

These noble ladies and underage children entered Lady Yagris's estate directly by water and spent half of the social month there.

Then in the second half of the month, go to the Earldom of Hamilton to meet up with the men who have just finished their political conference.

Fortunately, due to some historical reasons, there are currently no female nobles or clan leaders in the North.

Once the new Earl of Hamilton arrives, his wife will be able to take over this task.

After all, by that time, Madam Yagris's status would still have to take a step back... When royal nobles are of equal status, they will definitely be at the highest level.

In order to make Madam Yagris and Lori accept his suggestion, His Majesty Travis also paid a certain price.

Although Lowry never asked his mother what she had obtained, judging from her behavior, it should be resources related to her knighthood.

This kind of resource is almost monopolized by top people. Although Lowry is capable of obtaining it, he certainly cannot get the best one.

He has not yet been able to use money to override power.

He was able to buy it because he had gained recognition from that circle.

What Lowry got himself was pretty good, too.

Although Lori learned a lot of systematic mage knowledge after becoming Arsalan's student, there were some royal secrets that Arsalan could not teach him.

In addition to giving Lori a lot of high-level magic materials, Travis also gave him some of this exclusive spell information.

Generally speaking, this kind of information is related to the royal family's unique magic arrays. Giving it to Lori was definitely Travis's own arbitrary act.

Although Lori understood that His Majesty Travis chose to do this because he knew that Lori had the inheritance of a dragon, he probably wouldn't force himself on their spells that went in circles due to a lack of knowledge.

But it’s also a sign of trust.

Although it is a bit like moral kidnapping, at least he paid first.

Lowry could still accept this little bit of flattery.

After all, there wasn't much for him to do.

Mrs. Yagris is the key point.

Moreover, his mother took this opportunity to bring Cheska along.

Basically no one can understand these social etiquette unless they are from a noble family. It is really difficult to figure them out on your own without someone to teach you.

And Mrs. Yagris obviously handed over more things to Cheska this year... This is why Lori felt that she had already seen Cheska's current situation.

Lori smiled slightly as he watched Chesca, who had finished dealing with the castle affairs and was riding leisurely towards the manor on horseback.

This year's Winter Banquet is probably the last one held here in Lowry.

The new Earl of Hamilton's wife would certainly take the matter back immediately.

The new Earl Hamilton does not care about the things that Leon and Yuri don't care about.

But this session must be the one in which the nobles reached the most consensus.

No one is stupid.

The nobles' recognition of Leon came from their understanding of him over the previous twenty years, so they were so active in approaching him.

Although those messy methods are not commendable, but... if those ladies did not think that Leon could definitely gain a foothold in the North and was qualified in dealing with people and things, they would not have rushed forward.

The newcomer did not go to the Earldom of Hamilton in advance to have a formal handover with Leon, but waited for Leon in the capital, which showed that he was not a tolerant person.

Moreover, the style must be very high-pressure.

The thing that the northern nobles fear the least is high-pressure policies.

In a border war zone, who doesn't have the ability to go a little crazy?

Not to mention that many of them originally came from the border army, and each of them has his own support.

Although he would not dare to offend the new earl, he was not afraid of his unreasonable behavior.

But they must be worried about this man's mismatched relationships.

Just like Lady Yagris back then, is she afraid of Count Gezar's dirty tricks?

Definitely not afraid.

But she didn't want to offend a lot of people for such a thing.

If she did that, even if she succeeded in her resistance, it would still be difficult for her to move forward.

Therefore, the nobles would definitely finalize their marriage contracts within three years before the new countess arrived.

As for three years later... If this man can only rely on this method to control his nobles after three years, then there is actually nothing to be afraid of him.

Lori stared at Chesca's back with a smile... Chesca, who was so leisurely, would probably soon understand what it meant to have a head as big as a cow.
-
"Look, how beautiful the flowers over there are~" The beautifully dressed little girl held her small fan, looking at a young man with a hint of shyness, a hint of enthusiasm, and a bit of persistence.

This would have been a beautiful scene, if she wasn't facing a young couple with unhappy faces.

Cheska clenched his fist.

She no longer remembered what resolution she had made before entering the manor. Now, Chesca just felt exhausted and depressed... She would rather wrestle with Bobo like Taylor did!
Aren’t they a couple?
Why did you just rush up like that?

But after making several wrong choices, Cheska had no intention of saying anything more, he just raised his hand slightly and said, "That is the Tumi Shahua, only our territory has it.

Moreover, the flowers in full bloom can only be seen in this manor.

Please enjoy it slowly."

"What brilliant flowers~" the girl holding the small fan said with deep emotion, "It's just that there is always a feeling of a glorious ending.

You say so, Francis?

"Francis Payton." The boy reached out and pressed the shoulder of the girl who was about to leave. "We are not so close that we call each other by our names."

"Well... in other words, on behalf of the Peyton family, you have withdrawn the marriage proposal with our family?" The girl holding the small fan said calmly.

"I'm not the only one of the right age in my family." Payton didn't say anything definite.

"Heh~" The little fan girl sneered, "Please go and tell my mother and your mother who are chatting happily in the hall again."

Payton hesitated for a moment, but after his subordinate's shoulders struggled harder and harder, he pushed her into the hall.

The girl with the little fan held the fan slightly lowered as she leaned against the pillar, revealing a beautiful face that was calm yet sad.

Unexpectedly, it has a subtle similarity with the red sand flower blooming next to it.

Chesca stood in his position with an indifferent look on his face.

She knew very well that these boys and girls knew who she was.

Before the banquet began, Mrs. Yagris took her to every corner of the manor and explained the functions of each area to her clearly. After the banquet began, she let her stand behind her and meet all the people who came to greet Mrs. Yagris.

Although Cheska did not hold an official noble position and therefore could not introduce themselves or greet each other on such occasions, they both understood what was going on.

However, after this stage, Chesca can return to her proper place... The area where she was standing was actually outside the passage leading from the manor to the castle area.

Although no lady has ever tried to open this passage at banquets in recent years.

But Cheska never relaxed his protection of this place.

She knew very well that the reason she stood here as the chief steward of Qingfeng Territory was to represent Lori's will: he would never accept any behavior that crossed the line.

No matter who she is, no matter how beautiful she is.

In fact, in the past two years, more boys than girls have been interested in this channel.

They like to bring the girls they admire to this area, and after expressing themselves, they will strive to become strong people like Baron Lori who has reached the pinnacle of life with his own abilities.

Chang Lizhi was just that, and Cheska had already seen numbness.

After all, except for the first time when he really wanted to swear to the girl he loved, the others were just following the trend.

They can even bring a dozen girls during a half-month social period.

As for whether the girl in front of him was really sad or just wanted Cheska to see her sadness, Cheska had no interest in considering it at all.

She would not leave this corner for anything.

Then, she heard a familiar voice.

"Cheska, long time no see."

A lady dressed extremely luxuriously and with an elegant demeanor walked leisurely in from behind the curtain of the hall.

"Excuse me..." Chesca, who was leaning against the wall, stood up straight with a hint of apology on his face.

Even though she had just heard this lady introduce herself behind Mrs. Yagris two hours ago.

The lady's originally bright face twisted slightly.

She looked at the curious girl standing on the side and said, "Sophia, don't you want to go see your mother? She doesn't seem to be in a good mood."

"Sophia Watson." Sophia immediately replied seriously, "Ma'am, I don't think our relationship is such that you can call me by my first name."

Chesca couldn't help but smile.

Sophia Watson is indeed qualified to say this.

Although they are all from baronial families, the Watson family is an old-established northern noble family.

If Baron Batty had not married his daughter to the Earl's family, Baron Watson would have been the first baron in the North.

After all, Baron Watson still served in the Northern Border Guard, and his position was not low.

Besides, Sophia Watson is the Baron's biological daughter.

The other one, however, was just a cousin of a certain baron.
