Views:

Not long after Jin Nuo left Wusheng Town, he was called back by the furious Niuer tax official.

After learning about the "flying" away of the Sky Dragon Palace, Jin Nuo's first reaction was to burst out laughing.

Niuer was so angry that the tax officer almost passed out for the second time.

In fact, Jin Nuo couldn't be blamed for this matter, I'm afraid that Emperor Longteng's first reaction would not be much stronger than his.

But as a glorious dragon knight, Jin Nuo still knew how to build a good relationship with the tax officer of the household department.

So after secretly wiping away the tears from laughing, he looked up at the sky.

Only then did I realize that Niuer's tax officer was telling the truth.

Later, he ordered people to inquire about the whereabouts of the Dragon Palace in the Sky, and the news sent back by the spies made Jin Nuo abruptly turn his smile into panic.

The spies stationed around Fontaine County saw the Sky Dragon Palace flying into the territory of Fontaine County with their own eyes.

"Flew to Fontaine County? You said it was Fontaine County in the south of the Xuanshou Ridge?" Jin Nuo felt incredible, it was nothing more than Dragon Palace "flying", why did it fly to Fontaine County impartially.

What happened in Fontaine County recently was enough to surprise Jin Nuo.

First, the neighboring Bailu County suddenly changed hands, and then all the spies of the empire stationed in Fontaine County were also cleared out, which seemed to be a blind spot for the empire's information.

The information related to Fontaine County and the true identity of the new lord are all a mystery.

The only bit of news came from a drunk businessman in Helen Tavern, saying that he was the new lord of Fontaine County, a weak and slender young man.

In the past few days, Jin Nuo has repeatedly surveyed the Xuanshou Mountain Ridge, just to make a plan, whether to attack Fontaine County.

"Oh, my lord Jin Nuo, if the Sky Dragon Palace flies to Fontaine County, it will be very bad," Niu Er, the tax official, reacted much more than Jin Nuo.

He is the tax official of the empire, and he explains more about the tax laws and property rights laws of the empire than ordinary people.

According to the provisions of the imperial law, any personal territory granted to the lord by the emperor of the empire, the lord has ownership of all items in the territory.

This territory covers the development and ownership of airspace, territorial waters and underground minerals.

Right now, the only way to get back the Sky Dragon Palace is to take advantage of the Dragon Palace just "flying" over and come to ask for it back.

"What are you afraid of? I've already made a detailed plan, but I'm just a fake lord who doesn't have even hair. As long as I, the black pretty girl, roars ten miles away from the territory, the entire Fontaine County will be shaken three times." Jin Nuo's temper also came up.

Although I don't know what shady method the other party used to steal the Sky Dragon Palace, but there is one point, the imperial property is sacred and inviolable, and the tax-resistant lord must be crusaded.

After Jin Nuo made up his mind, he immediately dispatched troops.

Before leaving, I wanted to take the two brothers' good brother, Yue Yue, together, and learn a lot by the way, but I didn't know that even his figure disappeared.

Maybe it was because he had accepted the mercenary mission, thinking so, Jin Nuo led more than a thousand elite soldiers of the empire, and fifty imperial war beasts, all the way across the ridge of the mysterious beast, and rushed straight to Fontaine County .

On the other side, Fontaine County seemed unaware of the imperial army's arrival.

The people were just concerned about the sudden appearance of a dragon-shaped palace over Yunluo Lake (the original ice lake, which was later renamed to commemorate Miss Yunluo, the largest investor in the county).

If it was changed to another place, I am afraid that the people would have been terrified and scrambled to leave, but this happened in Fontaine County, but it was like a small stone thrown into the sea, and a small After the splash, it subsided quickly.

Some people from other counties felt a little uncomfortable for a while, so they secretly asked the locals.

I saw a local resident impatiently lighting a blue snow candle, "Have you seen this kind of lamp outside?"

The outsider shook his head quickly.

"Have you ever seen a pig that can plow the land?" The local pointed to the rock-eating pig in the spring plowing field, which plowed open the hard ice-loam soil.

The outsider shook his head even more vigorously.

"Then have you ever seen Lord Beast God appear in person?" The locals pointed to the tall statue of Snake Fagore beside Yunluo Lake.

The outsider's neck is about to be shaken off.

"This is Fontaine County, a place blessed by the Beast God, and the palace is the residence of the Beast God, so it's no big deal," the locals said devoutly.

Of course, this version of the story about the Beast God's Palace originally came from the Lord's Mansion, and it was told to the servants by Hong Ling, the chief steward of the Lord's Mansion.

Soon, not only residents of Fontaine County, but also passing businessmen and some foreigners accepted this version.

They couldn't help but not believe it. You know, just a year and a half ago, Fontaine County was a dilapidated place where no shit was done and mysterious beasts didn't even look at it.

But now, thanks to the protection of Lord Beast God, Fontaine County and the neighboring Bailu County have become well-known and wealthy counties.

The picturesque Yunluo Lake, clusters of arrow bamboos in different colors, exquisitely crafted blue snow candles, roasted pigs that can only be tasted locally, and beer with a foamy and mellow taste.

These have attracted caravans from the Risong Federation and even neighboring principalities, and they have sprung up to settle in the territory like mushrooms after rain.

Due to the lord's encouragement policy, a large number of artisans and craftsmen moved into Fontaine County. They brought not only population prosperity, but also unprecedented vitality to Fontaine County.

The dilapidated stone house was replaced by a beautiful glazed tile house, and the muddy frozen soil path was replaced by a spacious carriage drive. million resident population.

Of course, the outside world, especially the Dragon War Empire, doesn't know much about it.

Even the real lord of Fontaine County, Yue Minzhi, the little bloody duke of the Dragon War Empire, only recently obtained new information about this territory.

"Master, this information was sent from the Xuanshou Mountain Ridge a day ago," when Sequoia, the steward of the Duke of Longzhan's mansion, handed over a letter and a copy of the latest information and income of the territory to Yue Minzhi. , Yue Minzhi, who has always been calm, was stunned.

More than half a year ago, when the steward Sequoia went to Bailu County to ask for help, he was driven out of Bailu County after being ridiculed by Viscount Moore. In desperation, he had to return to the imperial capital, and wanted to find Yue Minzhi to find some ways to help the territory get through the crisis. The difficulty this time.

However, Yue Minzhi was training in the imperial preparatory camp at that time, and he was really at a loss for what to do. When he returned to the mansion after a short vacation, he got such a letter.

When faced with this letter, Yue Minzhi and Sequoia had the same reaction, how is this possible
