Dear Broom Knight.
Chapter 510 Countess Hamilton
Chapter 510 Countess Hamilton
In recent years, many caravans have gone to Qingfengling to purchase these beautiful cold-proof clothing before winter arrives.
But Lord Lori really had no interest in making such small amounts of money, and he always limited the quantity.
Moreover, they will never change the original function of these clothes just because they think they look good.
In the royal capital, the coldest time is only about the same as the temperature in the north at the beginning of winter.
This fur dress is too hot for them.
Many noble ladies were convinced that as long as the Lord of Qingfeng Territory was willing to sell furs without anti-cold magic arrays, they would definitely buy a lot of them.
Moreover, the price might be similar to that of the clothes that can barely be called magical items nowadays!
Unfortunately, the Lord of Qingfeng Territory ignored their suggestions and was even too lazy to give discounts to the caravans that came to purchase.
After all this time, Count Montes is still the only one who can get the wholesale price... This is more likely due to the love from Lady Yagris.
Of course, the new Countess of Hamilton still has two pieces of clothing to alternate with.
But in the eyes of a royal aristocrat like her, how could she wear last year's clothes this year?
It’s fine for normal times, but you still have to change it for important occasions.
We can’t let people think that Ezra is going bankrupt!
Therefore, she was quite satisfied with this trip to Montes Territory.
Even so, she was forced to stay in Montes Territory because a huge hole suddenly blew up on her way home.
"Mom... Count Fabrice may not be very happy." Count Hamilton's daughter looked at her mother with a worried look on her face. "Is Dad too..."
"What does it have to do with your father?" Countess Hamilton said in a calm and natural tone, "Didn't someone encounter an ice dog and panicked for a moment, so he used a powerful magic scroll?
It's not our fault. After all, we are all from the south and have never seen such a big and ugly dog. "
She glanced at her gentle and beautiful little daughter and said, "Pearl, be honest and confident. We paid for it."
Pearl looked at her mother with her beautiful green eyes, who said such words without even changing her expression, and laughed awkwardly.
Count Fabrice didn't even accept the compensation in person, nor did he entertain them for being accidentally stranded in the Montes Territory... He must have been furious.
These roads in the north were all maintained by people sent by Count Montes in the past, so Fabrice must be very clear about what happened.
Moreover, as far as she knew, the person sent by Lord Montes to congratulate her father on his inauguration was Count Fabrice's great-uncle, who not only held an important position, but also had the professional rank to be qualified to talk to her father directly... According to their expectations before they came, this was already the best outcome.
After all, the Lord of Qingfeng Territory will definitely not show up in person, so Count Montes will definitely choose to cooperate with his uncle.
They clearly gave them face, but they ended up blowing up the road that had been maintained for thousands of years... What kind of magic scroll could so easily blow up a road that was not even destroyed during the invasion of the Ice Country!
Who can't see what's going on?
Pearl sighed, "Mom, before I came here, my brother told you to try to keep an eye on Dad.
Are you in cahoots with him?"
Countess Hamilton turned back gracefully: "Dear Pearl, your brother said try, not must.
Then I will definitely choose to help Ezra who is more in need~
Compared to those, of course the families of the knights are more important. Don’t forget, most of the people we brought out this time are women.”
Because of Ezra's violent temper, few female knights were willing to follow him.
The reason why there are still a dozen of them left is because of Countess Hamilton... Although she has sheathed her sword now, the Countess was once Ezra's colleague and had outstanding strength.
Yagris believes that Montes, who is also from the Royal Army, can be trusted because these old veterans have laid a solid foundation.
The King's Army values strength above all else; even a young lady from a noble family has to fight on the battlefield.
Those who don’t have a certain determination won’t go at all.
The Countess of Hamilton was once an officer in the King's Army who had led troops in battles.
The main reason why she was willing to step down for love was that after reaching a certain level, she found that her command ability was not enough.
His fighting ability was indeed sufficient, but his brain could not keep up.
Back then, Ezra and she had been rivals.
However, what she didn't expect was that she, who was able to compete with Ezra in commanding team operations, reached the finish line in the next round of competition.
If she could continue to compete with Ezra for dominance, the Countess probably would not choose to return home for love... Love is beautiful, but the power in one's hands is more important.
The same is true for Mrs. Yagris.
After reaching a certain level, he found that his command ability was only at the level of a thousand people and he could not complete the battlefield command of an army of ten thousand people. Then he could only return home with his merits and inherit the title.
Although there will definitely be people who will stay in the army even after suffering such a blow, nobles who have a way out, and a very good way out, cannot accept the result of being someone's deputy for the rest of their lives.
Many female knights of noble birth would choose to marry their comrades who also came from noble birth.
After all, there aren't many noble female knights like Lady Yagris who don't have elders to make the decisions for them.
When they have a bright future in the army, their families will naturally not force them to be captured and married off.
However, once they found out that they had reached this point, the marriage plan would naturally be put on the table, unless they could surpass level twelve before the age of thirty.
How many knights are there who have both strong command ability and professional talent?
This has nothing to do with gender.
Anyway, the Countess of Hamilton is a little bit inferior.
Of course, they still have the right to choose who to marry.
The family can't actually force them to marry, but they can use various methods to annoy them until they accept their fate and choose a way out for themselves... They can also choose to stay in the family and marry a few men.
However, girls who come from the military rarely do this.
For the girls who have shed their blood on the battlefield, who could be interested in those weak men who can barely become knights?
The family will not allow them to enjoy without paying a price...How many warriors are willing to have children for a man they look down upon?
Female nobles who can take this path all have inherited titles of their own, so they do not need to worry about whether their children's future paths will be difficult.
The Countess of Hamilton did not have this blessing; she was the daughter of a marquis.
The more powerful the family is, the weaker the individual autonomy will be, and the fewer options there will be.
This actually doesn’t distinguish between men and women.
Ezra is strong enough! When the royal family needs him to come out for marriage, it is difficult for him to refuse.
The bloodline of a knight is a precious tool for any family, and the more outstanding the children, the more they are needed to leave a legacy.
Mages are more free in this regard. After all, even if they give birth to a hundred children, not all of them will become mages.
The cost-effectiveness is too poor and it may cause some backlash, so no one will do it.
Therefore, their former comrades-in-arms are their best choice. At least they can have something in common and things won’t become too ugly just because their feelings have disappeared.
Each other will leave some room.
Just like Bowen's wife, who was once a knight in the king's army.
However, Bowen’s wife was not very talented or strong, and she passed away a few years ago... The Countess was really sorry about this, as she no longer had many peers with whom she could have a good chat.
Her talent was just not that good, but she still made it through level 10.
Unfortunately, most of her comrades and followers were lost in time.
As for Bowen's only son, who was also a scholar, he naturally stayed in the capital to accompany Almes.
Countess Hamilton touched the back of her lovely little daughter's head.
Pearl is very similar to her in every way, except for her overly naive and kind character, which she has been spoiled by her father and brothers.
She thought about it and warned the little girl seriously: "Don't be curious about the Lord of Qingfeng Territory and Fabrice, and don't be too concerned about their reactions..."
"Mom! What are you talking about!" Pearl's fair face suddenly turned red, "I will never fall in love with any man!
How could there be a man in this world who is more perfect than my brother! "
Countess Hamilton said in confusion: "As a mother, I have never been so blind when looking at my own son. What kind of poison did Almes feed you?"
"Mom~" Pearl was very dissatisfied, "Why do you always belittle Brother Al like this!"
Mrs. Hamilton tilted her head and looked at her daughter: "Look at you, and you'll know why."
How terrible and treacherous must a man be to be able to trick his own sister into becoming like this!
She was once a sister, too.
But when I see my brother, I only remember the embarrassing things he did when he was a child, and I will never think that everything about him is good.
"Forget it~ I won't argue with my mother!" Pearl pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, "Then, shall we stay in Montes forever?"
She looked around the room she was in.
Although the hotel in Montes Territory was clean and tidy, and the standard was not bad, but... Pearl still didn't like it very much.
"Don't worry. Although Count Fabrice is unwilling to show up, he has promised to send a batch of Qingfengling's latest products from the warehouse." Countess Hamilton narrowed her eyes happily. "It is said that there will be jewelry products this time!"
Pearl asked hesitantly, "Dad, does Dad have any money left?"
Countess Hamilton patted her little face helplessly: "Pearl, if your mother could only live on men's wallets, she would have been finished long ago, you know?"
She chose to marry Ezra not because he was strong or rich, but because he never thought that women should stay at home and be supported by him.
