Chapter 269 Invitation III

Green Grass Festival is less than a week away.

And after the Green Grass Festival, it will enter March—however, the Green Grass Festival in Vauban County is not a festival for everyone, because Vauban County in the north, when it is still snowy at this time, it will be at least four months. The real spring will come in the middle of the month and the end of the month, and the territory close to the snowfield dense forest, such as the Territory of Tire, will have to wait until May.

However, this does not prevent the lords from communicating with each other in the name of the Green Grass Festival.

It is different from the seriousness and scrutiny of Midwinter.

The Green Grass Festival should be more relaxed-itself, just to continue the friendly atmosphere of the previous alliance.

The lord of the alliance will choose a place to hold a moderate banquet.

And between the Territory of Tire and the Territory of Zelgon, there is no doubt that the former became the host—except for the hospitality of Baron Tire, it is more because the Territory of Zelgon does not even have a lord's mansion, so it is impossible to be in Is there a banquet in the barracks?

Although Dean certainly didn't mind, his subordinates would definitely not agree.

So, after receiving the invitation from Baron Tyre, Dean set off with his entourage and a team of Veteran Knights veterans.

Because it's only two days.

Huck also followed, and the territory was temporarily handed over to the militia captain Raul, and Dean was always very relieved that Old Del was in the manor.

Dean and his party are naturally familiar with the journey to Tillland. Except for the necessary scouts, everyone is more relaxed——

"Are you going south, my lord?"

Siren leaned over and asked Dean.

"Hmm! Do you want to follow?"

Dean looked at Siren with anticipation in his eyes, and at the same time looked at the followers here. Can't help but nodded. asked.

"We are followers. We should be where the adults are!"

Siren replied like this, and the followers around him nodded repeatedly.

"What about my orders?"

Dean asked with a smile.

"Of course I will follow your orders!"

Siren replied instinctively.

"Well, you stay to guard the territory, and the others will follow me!"

Dean said calmly.

Immediately, Siren was taken aback, his whole face collapsed like this, and he murmured at Dean. An expression that was about to cry; while Chad, Maher, Ike, including Huck, all around him burst into laughter.

"My lord, you can't do this! It's not fair!"

Seeing the smile on the corner of Dean's mouth, Siren knew that Dean was joking, and immediately yelled loudly.

"Are you going to disobey my orders?"

Dean looked at Siren and asked jokingly.

"No, it's not... But, but..."

Immediately, Siren was completely speechless.

And the laughter around became louder, until Tilling, everyone's laughter didn't stop, making fun of Siren from time to time.

but. In such a joke, the follower of Dean's southward journey has been confirmed.

Huck as Dean's deputy. When Dean left the territory for a long time, he naturally needed to stay, and Siren, as an official knight, was one of the few high-level combat forces in the Zelgon Territory, so he naturally needed to stay to assist Huck; Because I was still learning more potions, I couldn't spare more time and energy to travel south.

Therefore, the most suitable candidates are Chad and Maher.

Of course, it is also necessary to select a team of Veteran Knights veterans-even if Dean wants to travel lightly, as a lord of a place, sometimes he still needs to take into account the honor of being a nobleman.

In this regard, Dean felt helpless.

However, he had to do so. After all, apart from his own honor, this could be regarded as a kind of etiquette—a kind of respect for Grand Duke Jade.

Just like at this moment, going to Baron Tire's mansion, the gifts held in the hands of Chad and Maher mean the same thing.

"Lord Zelgon!"

When there was still a distance from the gate of De Tire Town, the guards in Tire Town shouted loudly, and then a group of people came out to meet them.

Baron's staff: Ikos.

"Dean! Phocia didn't come?"

Ikos, who was still in a scribe robe, greeted Dean with a smile, and asked his friend.

"He thinks books are better—he has a rest today, but he has no plans to go out!"

Dean shrugged.

Dean is very satisfied with Phocia, the tutor of the entire knight order, no matter whether it is the other party's knowledge or character, Dean nods.

If I had to say something bad, it would be the attitude of the other party towards interpersonal communication; if I had to sum it up, it would be——

'Books are better than people! '

Such a sentence.

"Sure enough, it hasn't changed!"

Ikos, who obviously knew his friend's temper well, couldn't help shrugging his shoulders, then continued to smile and said, "Let's go! The baron has been waiting for a long time!"

With Ikos at the front, Dean and Huck at the rear.

As for Siron and others, those veterans disbanded on the spot and returned home - this was authorized by Dean, but they must gather at the gate of the baron's mansion on time tomorrow morning.

The mansion of Baron Till remained unchanged.

However, in order to welcome the Green Grass Festival, the entire mansion was thoroughly cleaned, and flower petals were sprinkled on both sides of the road—some slightly yellowish petals.

Obviously, it was picked before winter and carefully preserved.

If it is in other places of Emerald, people will pick fresher petals. In temples and castles, there will be special people to take care of the flowers for the winter, and then pick them on the day of Green Grass Festival and sprinkle them on the surrounding snow. To drive away the cold winter and look forward to the coming spring.

However, it is not enough in Tyreland.

You must know that in this severe cold climate, the cost of caring for flowers by a special person is definitely not a small expense.

Perhaps the Marquis of Vauban would do the same. but. Baron Till definitely wouldn't—or rather. Want to do it, but are plagued by budget deficits.

But even so, the appearance of these four-month-old petals on the snow is pleasing to the eye.

"Spring is coming!"

Dean sighed, and Ikos on the side nodded repeatedly: "Yeah, spring is coming soon! Dean, how long have you been in Vauban County? Well... wait. You seem to be last winter Are you only from Vauban?"

While talking, Ikos seemed to react, and he looked at Dean in surprise.

"What's wrong?"

Dean looked at each other in surprise.

"It's nothing! I just think you've been in Vauban County for several years... Tsk, I had hallucinations at the Green Grass Festival. It seems that I'm old too!"

The staff shrugged and continued to lead Dean to walk in.

Dean, on the other hand, smiled and said nothing.

He knew very well that the reason for such an illusion was simply because of his current status as a nobleman and Zelgang's territory!

You must know that even if it is a real knight, this is the struggle of the other party's life.

And him?

It's only four months at a time!

There is both luck and his plan in this - of course. The latter accounted for more of the proportion, however. The former is also indispensable.

"It's really fast!"

After sighing softly, Dean walked quickly into the hall of the baron's mansion where the banquet had been prepared for a long time, exchanged greetings with Baron Tire who hadn't seen him for several weeks, and greeted each other's daughter and son one by one.

Of course, continue to ignore the affectionate eyes of Miss Baron's family.

Similarly, the young master of the baron family who timidly hid behind his sister did not attract more attention from Dean.

In fact, in Dean's view, although the lady of the baron's family has a bad personality, she is more suitable to inherit the title and territory of Tyreland.

And that young master is really too weak.

Almost like a real girl.

Moreover, she is still the kind of sick and weak young lady who lives in a deep boudoir.

However, this is just Dean's own thoughts, he will not say anything - after all, no matter how good the relationship with Baron Tyre is, some words cannot be said directly.

For example: the ownership of the other party's territory, and the ownership of the title.

The banquet continued.

In addition to roast meat and some vegetable soup, as if to welcome the arrival of the Green Grass Festival, some more fruits were added to the banquet.

Of course, if these fruits were not baked, Dean would like them even more.

"Your Excellency the Baron!"

When the banquet was about to end, Dean walked to Baron Tyre's side.

Although Baron Tire has always asked Dean to call him Valit, but the good relationship between the two parties, coupled with the age of Baron Tire, Dean still maintains the honorific title.

"What's up, Dean?"

Baron Tyre, who was comforting his son who accidentally fell in the snow and was about to drop, turned his head away.

"Do you remember Ramoz?"

Dean asked like this.

"The thief leader?"

Baron Till immediately thought of who the other party was.

"Well, it's the thief leader! If possible, I want to meet him!"

Dean nodded, begging.

"Is it for the thieves that may be hiding in Zelgang? Of course there is no problem. These thieves and robbers are the most hateful guys! Ellen, come here!"

Baron Till hardly asked Dean the reason, and gave the answer himself, while calling for his chief guard.

Soon, the chief guard on duty appeared in front of Dean and Baron Till.

"Ellen, Dean wants to ask that Ramoz—see if there are thieves' strongholds in Zelgon Territory!"

Baron Till gave instructions to his chief guard, and then pointed apologetically at his son who was still crying softly, indicating that he could not leave.

Dean smiled, expressing his indifference; then, following Ellen, he walked towards the cell of the baron's mansion.

On the way, the chief guard, who had a very good relationship with Dean in private, was walking and talking——

"Ramoz is a tough guy. For such a long time, we haven't asked more things... They are talking about things we know!"

In the words, Ellen was a little annoyed.
