The appearance of Baron Ackford in the tower not only increased the tension of the Earth team, but also probably exceeded the expectations of the six accompanying knights in the medieval world.
After seeing the figure standing on the highest part of the castle clearly, Garucha and another knight, who were walking in the front of the team, pulled the reins unanimously, and controlled the horse to take a few steps aside, letting the original The inconspicuous flying dust and gravel are farther away from the trajectory that Wu Qingchen will pass behind him.
Soon, Wu Qingchen and his party walked about two hundred steps away from the castle.
This is also the place where the guards shouted and questioned me when I came here last time.
This time, the suspension bridge was lowered directly.
Earth, Country Z, a certain village, the center of villagers' activities.
"See it?"
Pointing to the small movements of the knight in front of him in the video and the suspension bridge that was put down in advance, Li Glasses smiled and said to the workers beside him: "This is the benefit of punching a swollen face to pretend to be fat."
"Well," the workers were thoughtful.
"Think about it," Li Glasses continued; "What would it be like now if Mr. Wu Qingchen brought only one messenger here without the extra-standard ostentation carefully arranged by the staff?"
The workers thought about it briefly, and two figures soon appeared in their minds: one was dusty, disheveled, and sweating profusely; the other was panting, staggering, and was about to be crushed to death by the huge burden.
"Get the head start." Ye Yi murmured.
"That's right." Li Glasses nodded: "The shelf has been set up. Next, let's see how Mr. Wu Qingchen will perform."
————
There was a faint smile on Hilbert's mouth.
He couldn't be unhappy. The relatives of the captain of the guard, the second son of the dog officer, and the guys introduced by Mrs. Lisa were all sent to clean up the castle.
Waiter, I heard my cousin and mother say, just stand by the door, convey the baron's orders, announce the courtiers' visits, occasionally move things, other times—or most of the time, do nothing, no doubt the whole castle The easiest and most comfortable beauty job.
The experience of the servants in the past two days has indeed proved this point.
Today looks like it will be easier.
The frizzy Garucha came over to see him twice, and the baron simply left the study. In this way, Hilbert's work has removed the item of "communicating orders", and only needs to complete the task of reminding and leaving a message when other officials come to look for the baron.
The sun is not far from setting.
the day's work is about to end
Soon you can lie down on the bed and rest
Thinking of going to bed, Hilbert yawned leisurely and stretched his waist.
"Haha" At this moment, His Excellency the Baron's laughter came from the direction of the winding staircase of the castle: "John is still the same. When he was a child, his favorite game was riding a pony and chopping grass."
"So that's how it is." His Excellency the Baron finished speaking, and a rather young voice continued, "No wonder Teacher is so skilled in combat."
"I was not skilled at all when I was young, and I had to leave a scar and shed tears once in two or three days." At this point in the conversation, Your Excellency the Baron walked down the last spiral staircase and stepped into the corridor.
As the baron turned around, two other figures also came into Hilbert's field of vision, the familiar attendant on the left, and a weird guy on the right.
The weird meaning is that this guy has a slightly thin body of an inferior person, but his body is clean; his face is a little immature, but there is a maturity that is absolutely impossible for a young man; It's a lot shorter, but when you look carefully, it doesn't make people feel short at all.
"Look at what?"
When Hilbert was a little distracted, the attendant came to the side: "Don't you know the etiquette? Haven't you saluted the priest yet?"
"Ah" Hilbert noticed that this weird guy was wearing a priest's attire. He hurriedly took off his hat and bowed: "I'm sorry, sir, please forgive my negligence."
"It's nothing. It's too hot. It's not your fault." The young priest also walked to the side. Hearing Hilbert's words, the young priest stopped immediately. He turned to Hilbert and stood upright before starting. Talking, the gentle smile on the face seems to resolve all grievances.
"come on"
After a few words of conversation, His Excellency the Baron had already walked about ten steps away. He turned his head and waved: "Let me take a good look at what good news my nephew has brought me."
"Yes, sir."
As he spoke, the young priest nodded to Hilbert again and sent another kind smile before turning around and walking in the direction of the Baron.
"Master Norton is this pastor from which parish?"
Facing the back of the young priest, Hilbert smiled blankly, and turned his head to look at the attendant who stayed beside him. —Everyone in the castle knew that when talking to people, the baron didn't like people who had nothing to do with getting too close.
"It's not the parish." The attendant shook his head and replied softly, "This is Priest Los/Moore from the village of Akeli."
"Aikeli Village?" Hilbert was a little surprised: "Master! Is this the new priest?" Hilbert's eyes were full of envy: "No wonder Your Excellency the Baron is so kind. When the lucky one was promoted by the church, the baron was very happy for two or three days. [Zero ↑ Nine △ Novel ↓ Shuo △ Net]”
"How could you be unhappy?"
The attendant smiled: "When the situation of Priest Ross was not very good, it was the baron who overcame all objections and personally ordered him to be appointed as a cowherd freeman and directly jumped to the cowherd. Do you remember how many people complained at that time? ?”
"Of course." Hilbert nodded repeatedly.
How could it be forgotten
Hilbert has a deep understanding of this just after the "Battle for the servants". How many open and dark arrows he encountered when he competed for the servants, and how many undercurrents must have been experienced when Ross/Moore became a cowherd.
However, Hilbert looked sourly at the back of the young priest: All these twists and turns were completely blocked by the baron before he even touched the corner of Ross/Moore's clothes.
"Hey" as if guessing what Hilbert was thinking, the attendant looked over with a half-smile: "Jealous?"
Hilbert blushed slightly.
"It's okay to be jealous." The attendant said with a little emotion: "Who doesn't envy such good luck? Cowherds in big villages! Whose family doesn't have a few low-level relatives to arrange? However, it used to be lucky, but now it's not. It's the same, how loud those people were when they yelled at His Excellency for wasting the opportunity to win people's hearts, now they admire His Excellency's vision."
"Huh?" Hilbert was a little confused.
"I've never met before, and I didn't have anyone to help me talk, so I just jumped from the freeman to the cowherd. What is trust? What is kindness? What is one's own person? That's it."
"But" Hilbert frowned slightly: "Your Excellency Ross doesn't even know about the complicated things here?"
"I don't know now, but it doesn't mean I don't know in the future. Your Excellency Ross doesn't know, it doesn't mean that your Excellency Praia doesn't know, even if everyone around your Excellency Ross shut up, wouldn't there still be us? In fact, maybe you will know later, The better it turns out."
"No." After thinking for a moment, Hilbert looked at the attendant in admiration.
"A few days ago, the baron had received the news." The attendant continued: "After Priest Praia got the gods, whenever he went to discuss matters, the village of Akeli was presided over by Ross/Mordai. Look at this, The parish of Fishgard has already planned to leave the village of Ikele to the Priest of Los."
"Tsk tsk" Hilbert smacked his mouth vigorously.
The attendant was also full of emotion: "The position of a cowherd is exchanged for the friendship of a pastor in a big village. This exchange is too worthwhile."
"no wonder"
"Huh!" Hilbert hadn't finished saying "no wonder", when the attendant suddenly pointed forward: "Aren't you going to the reception room upstairs, Your Excellency the Baron?"
"At this time" looking at the sky, Hilbert said hesitantly, "The sun has come over, could it be that the reception room is too hot?"
Next, the two saw that Baron Ackford led Priest Ross and stopped at the end of the corridor.
There, a cool breeze flowed in from the shaded window, by which stood a long table with the baron's favorite armchair behind it.
"Sure enough. Hurry up." The attendant hurriedly patted Hilbert on the shoulder: "Hurry up and move a seat for His Excellency Ross."
"it is good."
Hilbert nodded, and when he was about to take a step, the voice of the baron came over: "Hilbert, go to the kitchen and let them prepare the dinner."
"Okay, sir." Hilbert responded loudly.
He has just been a servant for two days, and the banquet etiquette is beyond Hilbert's knowledge. Now this occasion is obviously not suitable for questioning His Excellency the Baron. Fortunately, an aide who is good at these tasks is by his side, and Hilbert hurriedly asked : "For dinner, what food will you prepare?"
"Well, the last time Master Praia came, there were two chickens. Your Excellency Rose is the vicar, one level lower than Master Praia, but His Excellency the Baron is very close. Well, tell the kitchen to slaughter two chickens as well."
"Okay." Hilbert nodded and left quickly.
"When you come back, remember to move a seat." The attendant reminded again from behind.
About five minutes later, after notifying the kitchen, Hilbert came back with a round stool.
"Well, it's pretty fast."
Seeing Hilbert, who was at the corner of the spiral staircase, the attendant took the round stool and showed a slightly appreciative smile.
At this moment, a series of laughter came from the baron behind the two of them.
"The blind cow and the broken leg also survived? Are they able to work in the fields now?"
"Okay, okay! Great! Ross, Akeli Village is thanks to you! Akford will also rely on your good luck in the future!"
The two turned their heads at the same time. At the end of the corridor, His Excellency the Baron held the parchment with his left hand, and patted the young priest's shoulder with his right hand, with an extremely cheerful smile on his face.
The smile on the attendant's face disappeared like a tide.
"Quickly" put the round stool back into Hilbert's hand, and the attendant hurriedly urged: "What is the identity of the priest of Los? How can he sit on the round stool? Quick, quickly change to a chair!"
"Hilbert?"
Although he didn't see the round stool, the baron vaguely heard the voice of the two talking: "It's just in time to come back, you go down again, find someone, go outside and find Balles, and tell him that the Ellis family Don’t kill the farm cattle, maybe they can be saved.”
"Okay, sir." Hilbert quickly hid the round stool behind his back, turned around, and was about to run downstairs.
"Wait!" The attendant ordered in a low voice, "Tell the kitchen to kill one more lamb."
Five minutes later, the kitchen and the orderly were informed to look for the agricultural officer, and Hilbert climbed up the spiral staircase panting with an armchair.
The attendant waited directly at the end of the spiral staircase.
Before the two had time to hand over the armchairs, the voice of His Excellency the Baron laughed again from the direction at the end of the corridor.
"Bees can build new nests! That's right! Why didn't I think that bees can also build new nests!"
"Hilbert! Hilbert, is Hilbert back?"
"Yes, Your Excellency." Pushing the armchair into the hands of the attendant, Hilbert rushed out panting, "I'm here."
"Quickly, go down again and find someone to call the forest officer back. He should be in the forest. Tell him to stop messing around with the beehives and come back quickly. There are important things to do!"
"Yes, Your Excellency!" Hilbert replied loudly, turned around and walked down two steps, looking back at the attendant helplessly.
"Well" the attendant rubbed his temple vigorously: "Let the kitchen slaughter the deer caught a few days ago. Besides" looking at the armchair in his hand, the attendant said: "This can be given to Ross first. Your Excellency can’t sit down, when you come up, remember to bring another wolf fur cushion.”
Seven or eight minutes later, the kitchen was ordered to slaughter the deer, and the orderly was informed to look for the forest officer. Holding a wolfskin mat, Hilbert dragged his heavy steps towards the spiral staircase with difficulty.
Before he had time to start climbing a spiral staircase, His Excellency's laughter came again.
Master!
Hilbert looked up at the top of his head. There were at least five or six of his own height, forty or fifty steps away, between here and the baron.
The baron's laughter can be heard from so far away
and it's such a laugh
Hilbert swore that he had never heard such a hearty laughter from His Excellency the Baron.
Looking at the wolf fur cushion in his hand, Hilbert fell into thought:
How to do? Do you want to move another bed
