The 531st chapter navy, landing (3)
Tulun Port, Mid-mountain, the Vitu family mansion.
A bright moon hangs high in the sky, like water and moonlight shines brightly on the mountains and seas.
The mansion was brightly lit and the sound of people was buzzing. Behind the shade of trees, there were graceful music. Countless waiters and maids ran back and forth, and the New Year celebration banquet held at the Vitu family was gradually reaching its climax.
Although the male members of the Vitu family are not in Tulun Port this year, the Vitu family's New Year celebration this year is more lively than in previous years.
Almost all the well-known figures around Tulum Port were present.
The Governor of the Southern Special Administrative Region, the commander of the garrison of Tulum Port, Long Gest, the other six heads of the seven-member committee of Tulum Port, and all the direct tribesmen of the family, the heads of all major families of Tulum Port, the directors of major chambers of commerce, and the Governor of Claude, Winders, Storm Provinces, and the important members of the three major families of the provinces...
The guests are like clouds, and the conversation and laughter are full of wind.
On the grass in front of the head of the Weitu family, a team of energetic young men and a group of beautiful girls were lined up in an orderly line, like flowing clouds and water, dancing traditional slashes.
Every time the band behind the shade of the tree plays a short piece of music, these young people who dance politely bow their knees, bow, salute each other, and walk in smooth z-shaped steps, cross positions, and exchange dance partners.
Taking advantage of a short piece of music, we exchanged a few sentences to the dancers' and young men's and women's youth meetings.
This is not just a dance party, but also a large social...or a blind date.
With the Vitu family as the hub, the upper class young people who brought Tulun Port from the three provinces have more opportunities to meet more portals and be more suitable for their "objects"!
Liya and a large group of ladies stood on the terrace on the second floor of the main house, smiling at the young people dancing to each other below.
"Oh, Liya, today's celebration was very successful, and everyone was very happy." A noble lady from Claude's province with her husband's title of Earl fanned and said with a smile: "What a pity, Joe is not here today. My beloved daughter Lily told me that she really wants to dance with Joe."
Lea shrugged her shoulders, and she also waved a small folding fan.
"Oh, Joe... I really don't know if he's in the cold capital... I'm really worried about it." Sighing lightly, Liya narrowed her eyes: "Hesen, with Tifa and Weima, was also summoned to the capital. I don't know what the situation is."
Another lady who also comes from Claude Province is almost enough to represent the entire Claude Province aristocratic circle. The noble lady who has the title of Marquis narrowed her eyes and asked Liya with a hint of vague and condescending momentum. "Liya, do you think that this time... the Vitu family can probably...well, I mean, in terms of title?"
A group of noble ladies chattering and laughing, they calmed down at the same time, and looked at Liya with bright eyes.
Hesen was summoned to the imperial capital, with Tifa and Vima accompanying him.
All the nobles around Tulun Port knew that the Weitu family had a good deal and was about to be awarded the title... There are rumors that because of Qiao's military achievements in the imperial capital, the middle name of the Weitu family's surname will change from "Rong" to "Feng".
From Junke to Teutonic.
From a Junker noble who only has certain privileges to a Teutonic military noble who enjoys all privileges!
For the Weitu family, which has almost covered the sky in Tulun Port, such a small change represents an extremely huge significance.
If the Vitu family could become the earl... a Teutonic Earl who had the real power to control the seven-member committee, where might his fiefdom be?
What about Tulum Port?
It should, maybe... it is absolutely impossible?
How could it be enthroned to a family as the only seaport in the southern part of the empire?
Subconsciously, several noble ladies looked at the exquisite jewelry watch on their wrists, then turned their heads and looked north.
In the far north, in the heart of the empire, in the majestic Fort Heidra, there is also a New Year celebration being held.
And what happened at that New Year celebration will undoubtedly have a profound impact on the future of Tulum Port.
Look at the time, it should be almost done, right?
It was almost eight o'clock... What kind of reward did the Weitu family get? It should have come out, right?
Unfortunately, the distance is too far. If you want to know what title Hessen was awarded, it will probably take more than half a month to receive the news.
This makes a group of noble ladies who like gossip and gossip the most and gather together to chat about various gossip scandals. How can they bear it? How can they bear it?
"Oh, Lia, my dear, do you really have no news?" The marquis shook his slender neck a little uncomfortable, and the small sandalwood folding fan in his hand quickly swayed a few times.
She remembered the instructions her husband gave her before the banquet.
They are a family of marquises, and they should have a larger share and occupy a greater interest in Tulum Port.
This matter should be brought up to Leah.
Apply a little pressure and then make greater demands... Of course, in their family's eyes, it is more reasonable and meets the requirements of their family's status and strength.
If Lea doesn't agree, then use more tough measures!
A breeze blew from behind everyone.
The big red palace skirt was like a blooming blood camellia, and the Duke of Ross was emitting amazing charm all over his body. Like a strong wind, he walked straight along the hillside from the top of the mountain area, stepping on the top of the big trees, straight and unusually walking, and rushed into the Vitu family's mansion from behind, directly through the back garden, to the roof of the main house, and jumped off the terrace.
She raised a tough white paper with her right hand high, emitting a faint strange fluctuation, and waved her hand hard at Leya with a strange expression: "Leya... I think you'd better be mentally prepared... I, I really didn't expect... how could this happen? Are the guys in the Hydra Palace burned their brains?"
The eyes of a group of noble ladies suddenly lit up, and they lifted their ears hard, not letting go of any of the next words from Duke Ross.
"Ross?" Lea looked at Duke Ross with wide eyes: "What happened? Hessen, Joe...them?"
"Good thing!" Duke Ross swallowed hard: "A good thing I never dreamed of... Oh my God, the kind Muteste is above, Liya, I am short of money in the future, you must lend me some interest-free loans. Oh my God... What exactly did Joe do in the imperial capital?"
"Or, Gorkin killed the little female wolf in the Highland Kingdom?"
Duke Ross took a breath, his towering chest fluctuated violently. She shook the white paper in her hand and murmured: "I won't say those nonsense that praises merits. In short, this is the result..."
"Hesse, duke, is the entire province of Claude."
"Gorkin, he was named Marquis, and his fief is, Upper Lockson County!"
"Joe, cute little fat man, oh, Marquis of Joe von Weitu, whose fief is stronger than Upper Lockson County, Lower Lockson County... The kind Muteste, the two brightest pearls in Storm Province, were taken down by Gorkin and Joe."
"As for Tifa and Vima, Hesen convened them in the Hedra Palace's convention hall and publicly appointed them as the direct marquises of the Weitu family... It's true that Hesen, as I have known for so many years... He actually conferred two counties to his two precious daughters!"
"The annual grain output is sufficient to supply the Sharons County, which is used in the three provinces and one port for five years in the Southern Special Administrative Region, belongs to Tifa!"
"The grain output is slightly small, but there are many kinds of rare and special products, such as flower essential oil, precious fragrant wood, crystal gems, and precious stones... belongs to our Xiaoweima."
"The Weitu family, one is a real duke, two are a real marquis, and three are directly under the jurisdiction of the family... By the way, the gloomy Sigensi, he was also named a direct marquis."
Duke Ross tilted his head and curtsyed to Leah: "Then, I will call you, Duchess in the future! Dear Leah!"
The ladies around looked at Liya in amazement.
Among them, there were some people who had a vague sense of superiority towards Leah and an inexplicable view of her condescending momentum.
Even several noble ladies with sufficient strength from families came to attend the banquet with other purposes, just like the Marquis just now.
But now, all the noble ladies, especially those from Claude Province and the upper and lower Lockson County, were all reserved and awe-inspiring, holding up the corners of their skirts, bowing their heads deeply, and bowing down their bodies, and delivering the most respectful and formal court greeting to Leah.
One province and two counties were all granted to the Weitu family.
According to the aristocratic code of the Medland continent, the existing aristocrats in this province and the two counties will be transferred to other provinces, leaving behind the "blank", "clean", "no trouble" Claude's province and the upper and lower Lockson County for the Vitu family to take over.
The nobles of all sizes and nobles in the two counties of this province have been operating in their own territory for decades.
Their foundation and lifeblood are here.
If the seal is transferred to the neighboring province... this will undoubtedly be a great blow and weakening to their family!
but……
No one can fight against the will of the Empire!
Especially the Weitu family, which has risen rapidly like a terrifying monster, no one dares to cause trouble for him in the Southern Special Zone... Even Duke Ross felt like he was dreaming at this moment, and he was a little confused.
After she got the first-hand information sent back from the Hydra Palace from the claustrophobic place of Viglar's official residence, she was dizzy and rushed to the Weitu family's residence with the news as fast as possible, regardless of the decency.
The Vitu family suddenly rose.
Even Duke Ross couldn't figure out the trick inside.
How is there such an outrageous reward?
Hessen... No, this reward must have nothing to do with Hessen.
So, is it Gorkin or Joe?
Ah, according to Duke Ross's understanding of Gorkin, he was a shrewd and capable young man, but only to being shrewd and capable... He might be able to lead the Vitu family to become stronger, but this kind of power should be consistent with common sense, the kind of power that Duke Ross could understand.
Instead of this sudden, inexplicable, unreasonable, beyond common sense, beyond cognition!
"What did that little fat guy Qiao do? Dear Lia!" Duke Ross rushed to Lia, hugged her shoulder, and shouted loudly: "What did that little guy do?"
Liya was stunned.
She widened her eyes, opened her mouth slightly, and fell into an inexplicable state of dullness.
The ladies carefully straightened their bodies. They looked at Liya with envy, in awe, and did not dare to make any sound.
In front of the main house, on the grass, all the nobles who were joking, drinking, dancing, and socializing, regardless of their status... they stopped all movements at the same time.
They turned neatly and faced the terrace where Riya was, the man bowed and the woman bowed.
Chapter completed!
