Chapter 585 Knight Sisters


Chapter 585 Knight Sisters

A small farming village in the outer suburbs of Tiegebao.

"My lord, please do me a favor. My old wife is extremely ill, so she needs only this little food to survive!"

Under the eaves of a shabby house, a thin old farmer with white hair and tattered linen clothes knelt on the ground, screaming at the top of his lungs.

I saw him using a pair of dry arms to tightly hug the thigh of a fat middle-aged man in a brocade robe in front of him.

He burst into tears and said: "Seeing that the villain's two sons both died of illness while building the castle for the Lord of the City, let's leave this stutter for the villain..."

"Get away, you bitch!"

On the other side, the obese middle-aged man in a brocade robe kicked the old farmer in front of him to the side of the fence with a look of disgust on his face. If you cry in front of me, I will burn your doghouse directly!”

Speaking of this, the fat middle-aged man in brocade robes directed the two soldiers with fierce faces beside him to carry away the two bags of wheat that had just been found from the old farmer's house, and joked: "Old man, you have to blame Just blame your two stupid sons for not bothering.”

After that, the fat middle-aged man in a beautiful brocade robe, surrounded by a group of soldiers, walked towards the entrance of the courtyard surrounded by a broken fence with a sneer.

However, the obese man had just taken a few steps when the old farmer, who still refused to give up and whose tattered clothes were covered with mud, struggled to get up from under the fence. He suppressed the pain in his body and staggered to block the obese man again. in front of.

Due to the threat just made by the other party, this time, the old farmer, who was almost unsteady on his feet, did not speak. Instead, he remained motionless with a firm face, staring at the bag of wheat carried on the shoulders of the soldiers on the side, obviously in a silent struggle. .

For a moment, the solitary, skinny old farmer, the fat middle-aged man in front of him, and the tall and strong soldiers undoubtedly formed a sharp contrast, which made people feel sad.

"The bastard actually stood in front of my Lord again!"

The fat man's face darkened, and a blazing fireball instantly floated above his fat hand. In an instant, the flames rose, reflecting a ferocious face.

But just when the obese middle-aged man was about to kill him, not far away, a pair of thin young women who had just returned from picking wild vegetables outside caught his attention.

"Old man, are those two your daughters?"

After extinguishing the fireball on his palm, a look of vulgarity appeared on the face of the fat middle-aged man: "It just so happens that my master's mansion is short of two maids, and you want food, then the matter is very simple. , as long as you put your daughter in my hands, the food will be returned to you immediately.”

Licking his chapped lips, the obese middle-aged man added: "In this way, you get the food, and I get the maid. There is simply no better way to get the best of both worlds!"

After that, without waiting for the old farmer to answer, the fat middle-aged man excitedly ordered two tall soldiers to come forward, and in the blink of an eye, he tightly restrained the pair of thin young women with confused faces.

"Father...Father!"

In an instant, the straw basket filled with wild vegetables fell to the ground, and the two young women screamed in terror and despair, constantly irritating the old farmer's eardrums.

Seeing that the other party actually wanted to kidnap his only remaining daughters, the old farmer's cloudy eyes immediately turned red, and his old face, which was originally begging, froze on the spot.

His old feet, wrapped in old straw sandals, slowly and secretly exerted their strength, causing the soil at the heels to begin to move slightly. He was obviously preparing to use his withered body to fight the opponent to the death.

There is no doubt that even if there is no possibility of winning, the old farmer will fight to the death to get a piece of the opponent's flesh.

Directly across from him, all this was obviously clearly seen by the middle-aged fat man. He was a second-level peak powerhouse and could easily kill such an old guy who didn't even have an energy vortex.

"If you don't drink a toast, you'll have to drink wine as a penalty. Since you want to die so much, I will let you die!"

The fire magic energy particles in the air were trembling, just as the murderous aura on the middle-aged obese man's face became extremely strong.

As a gust of wind passed by, two slender female figures suddenly appeared in front of everyone present.

I saw that both of them were wearing a set of light blue knight's casual clothes, with a knight's sword at their waist, and even the long hair neatly tied up on their heads was exactly the same.

However, the taller female knight's pretty face is dotted with a bit of charm, and the cold temperament exuding from her whole body gives people a feeling of being inaccessible, quite like a royal sister.

The other female knight, who was slightly shorter, blinked her bright starry eyes, which vaguely revealed a hint of willfulness and arrogance, giving her the air of a noble lady.

Needless to say, these two people are Tina, the leader of the Blue Rose Knights, and her sister Tia.

"Lord Jim, stop when it suits you."

Looking at the fat middle-aged man coldly, Tina frowned and said: "Your Excellency is just one of the many grain collectors under the Marquis. It seems that you have no power to deal with the free farmers in the Marquis' territory at will, right? ”

"Who I thought was so short-sighted turned out to be my dear Captain Tina...my lord."

Angrily dispelling the deadly fireball in his hand, the obese middle-aged man in a brocade robe first looked up and down Tina's curvy body without any scruples.

Then, he snorted disdainfully and said: "It's true that I am just a grain collector under the Marquis, but you are just a watchdog raised by the Marquis. Without the charity of the Marquis, I'm afraid you, the so-called The Knights have long since disbanded and disappeared?”

"A watchdog in need of help actually jumps out to interfere with people's business. It's really strange these days."

After that, the middle-aged fat man known as Lord Jim burst out laughing with the soldiers around him.

"Jim, don't bully others too much!"

Before Tina could reply, Tia took a step forward, put her hand on the hilt of her sword and said, "As far as I know, the free farmers in this village have plowed the fields directly under the Marquis's domain and paid the full amount on time. You have collected grain, and what you are collecting now is the grain from the free farmers’ own land, right?”

"So what?"

Lord Jim sneered, his fat face covered with slender flesh showing a look of indifference.

Then he argued sophistically: "The land under direct control is the territory of the Marquis. Could it be that the land of these cheap slaves is not the territory of the Marquis? As the grain collection officer of the Marquis, I collect the grain produced in the Marquis's territory, and also Is there anything worth questioning? ”

"You are totally arrogant!"

I saw a furious look on Tiya's little face, and said tit for tat: "From the moment His Majesty the Hero King established the Cold Flame Kingdom, the first kingdom law promulgated was to abolish the serf system and ensure free farming. power, don’t you know this? ”

"I don't know any kingdom laws."

Still raising his eyebrows nonchalantly, Lord Jim said with a look of surprise on his fat face: "Dear sister, the leader, you don't know that the Marquis has the judicial power of this land, right? It's really A young and brainless young lady.”

After saying that, Lord Jim glanced at Tia's flat chest with disgust, and laughed loudly with the surrounding soldiers again.

"You're such a dog-like scoundrel..."

Hearing this, Tiya was furious and was about to draw her sword, but was stopped by Tina on the side.

"The other party is the Marquis' loyal dogleg, and it is not appropriate to conflict with him."

First, she whispered something to Tia in her ear. Tina took a step forward and said loudly: "Lord Jim, even the local judicial power cannot override the laws of the kingdom. I think you should know this better than anyone else." Clear.”

After a pause, Tiya raised her eyebrows slightly and continued: "Once this matter reaches the Tiegebao Tribunal, after word spreads, it will probably only tarnish the reputation of the Marquis. This must be something you don't want to see. Right? ”

"Hey, when it comes to talking nonsense, the head of the regiment is indeed unrivaled."

Lord Jim snorted disdainfully again. While waving his hand to signal the soldiers to put down the grain and the two young women, Lord Jim slowly squatted in front of the old farmer and said with a fierce look on his face: "Old man, this time you are lucky, I will." Sir, let’s see if you will have such good luck next time.”

"Your two daughters will be in my hands sooner or later."

Having said this, Lord Jim looked at the two thin young women who had just been released with a lewd look, and then he laughed loudly and left the small courtyard with his soldiers.

"The villain thanks Lady Tina, the villain thanks Lady Tiya!"

Seeing Lord Jim leave, the old farmer immediately relaxed. He immediately pulled his two daughters and knelt down in front of Tina and Tia. He burst into tears and said, "If you two don't come forward, I'm afraid I will have to do it." The family is broken and everyone is dead..."

"You don't need to be polite, old gentleman."

Looking at the unbearable scene in front of her, Tina took Tiya and quickly helped the three of them up, and then said: "As a knight, it is our duty to protect the free farmers on this land. ”

Speaking of this, Tina couldn't help but shook her head.

Although as early as the founding of Leng Yan, His Majesty the King of Heroes abolished the serf system, making all Leng Yan's people become free farmers with unrestricted actions.

However, since the ownership of the land is still firmly in the hands of the nobles everywhere, whether the Lengyan people everywhere are truly unfettered still depends on the noble city lords everywhere.

But even so, in the first three hundred years, the land of Lengyan was peaceful, and there were almost no traditional nobles who violated the laws promulgated by His Majesty the Hero King.

It was not until the past three hundred years that due to the raging wars around the kingdom, many new nobles who had accumulated military exploits and were granted territorial titles began to rise slowly and unknowingly.

Most of these new nobles, whose ancestors were originally free farmers, began to act more and more unscrupulously in their fiefdoms after receiving the judicial power granted by the royal family.

They all covered these free farmers with the same status as their ancestors with their big hands that covered the sky.

No one thought that the many cruel methods used by these new nobles in the kingdom would make the traditional nobles feel inferior... The Iron Gate Castle where they were located was the most typical representative of this.

The lack of discipline is also the main source of conflicts between the new aristocracy and the traditional aristocracy.

Due to the rapid rise of new nobles, many traditional nobles who felt threatened began to desperately catch up.

With interests and powers overlapping, small-scale wars between the old and new nobles, either openly or secretly, began to take place one after another.

Over the past few hundred years, marriages, rebellions, assassinations, and even family annihilations were common occurrences throughout Lengyan. While many aristocratic families became more powerful, they also naturally caused many aristocratic families to gradually decline.

As for the Leng Yan royal family, which is the highest power center of Leng Yan, most of the kings turn a blind eye to this kind of aristocratic war where the palms and backs of hands are full of flesh.

It was not until the 19th generation Cold Flame King, known as the Steel-Wristed King, was crowned that the situation began to ease.

And this heroic Lengyan King is the old king who is in his twilight years and is currently unconscious.

Thinking of this, Tina lowered her eyebrows and sighed softly.

Having said that, the reason why Lord Jim acted so wantonly in the village just now was naturally under the instruction of the Lord Marquis, the lord of Iron Gate Castle.

This was also the reason why she was wary and did not directly teach the other party a lesson.

Because standing behind the other party is the absolute master of this land, the Marquis.

As a radical figure loyal to the second prince, Leng Yan's new aristocracy, the Marquis has done many despicable things.

The most important reason why such a nobleman with a long history of crimes was willing to contribute money to the Knights of the Blue Rose before was that he wanted to use the Knights of the Blue Rose to restore some of his own reputation.

As for Tina, who has never collaborated with the other party, why she still chooses to stay in this land also has her own difficulties.

On the one hand, it is to help the people on this land as much as possible like just now.

On the other hand, it is because their roots are here...

"Sister...leader, what should we do?"

After sending the old farmer and his two daughters back to the dilapidated wooden house, Tiya walked out with a frown and said, "It won't be long before those hateful guys will come back again!"

"It would be nice if I could help a little bit."

Shaking her head helplessly, Tina looked at the dilapidated and desolate environment around her, and sighed softly: "With our strength, we can only do this."

Speaking of this, a deep sense of powerlessness flooded into Tina's mind.

In order to maintain the stability of the Knights, she couldn't even teach a small grain collector under the other party, let alone anything else?

"Sister, do you think there will be a big man who will change this place? A big man who doesn't take wealth so seriously."

With starry eyes twinkling, Tiya's pretty face was filled with anticipation as she said, "Besides, maybe we even know this big shot!"

"Tiya, you mean Lord Cinsha?"

Hearing the sound, a sparkling light suddenly appeared on Tina's originally calm face.

However, this brilliance was fleeting, and Tina lowered her eyebrows and said, "But...how could Lord Chensha appear here?"

And just when the two of them were talking about this.

Directly in front, a fat figure in a brocade robe screamed and flew to the main entrance of the small courtyard. (End of chapter)
