The Amber Sword - 888. Chapter 888 Act 46, Two Letters XI
Freya’s eyes were still a little red. She went to the cemetery of Aunt Sill and uncle. This cemetery is in a wide open space in the forest. It is simply filled with wooden tombstones. Most of the tombs have no real The owner is just to comfort the souls who have passed away in the war. In the square, the patrol cavalry squatted there neatly, being watched by Buche’s lads, but no one embarrassed them, and even the wounded were taken care of.
Brando and Madden are standing together, talking, the old man also rushed to hear the news, but did not expect to meet him and Freya. This November War veteran and Buche’s old guard captain was obviously very pleased with the growth of Brando and Freya, especially the current status and status of Brando and Freya, which made him see Buche. Human hope. In fact, I have to say that this old soldier knows a little bit about the qualities of Eruin’s nobles. To change the situation of the Buchi people today is really not a trouble for Freya today, and it does not even need to be bothered. Brando used Tony Gelber’s identity, even if she was the captain of the Knights of the Royal Family, Earl Nagin was not willing to offend for a forest.
This may sound a bit sad. For the Buchi people, this is a matter of life and death, but for Earl Nagin, it is just a matter of face. As a noble, he is certainly not willing to let a group of refugees be bullied, but if this Behind the group of refugees, there is a courtier next to the princess who is taking care of him, which is naturally different. It is not even necessary for Freya to remind himself that the Valkyrie, who is growing in popularity today, only needs to reveal his origin of Buche, and Earl Nagin is afraid that he will automatically revoke his proposal in the House of Nobility.
News of the fight between the patrol cavalry and the Butcher quickly spread.
This is not a trivial matter. The Buche people know it clearly represents the views of the nobles in Braggs. Many people have heard the news anxiously, not knowing what happened, whether the House of Nobles has already Come to a conclusion, are you going to drive them away? The crowd gathered quickly, spreading various rumors. Most people generally had a general sadness and anger. No one spoke or shouted. The scene was very depressing because no one knew what to do next. To do, only when the anger was accumulated silently in silence, the patrol cavalry in the open field watched this scene with fear, only to understand how much disaster he had caused.
Fortunately, Freya personally offered to persuade her-as Brando said, she is the daughter of the Butchers after all, and once led the refugees from Ridenburg out of the siege with Brando. Many people They all recognized her, and when they knew that the daughter of the Butchers had come to the fore today–although they were still a little bit suspicious, they at least felt relieved a little bit and no longer seemed so turbulent.
Brando was slightly relieved when he watched this scene. Historically, in the frosty month of the year of Swift, the contradiction between the Bragg nobles and the refugees was completely intensified for three years. When the nobles began to expel the refugees, the intolerable Buchi erupted overnight. , Followed by the riots that swept across the Braggs region. Many people were killed in the disaster. After that, the Buchi people’s situation under the dual suppression of the locals and the nobles went from bad to worse, and Golan-Elson became vigorous as a result. Injury, but the more serious disaster is a kind of indifferent suspicion rooted in this area, so that the kingdom will completely lose its prestige in this area in the future.
But today, it seems that this disaster does not need to be repeated at least-
But when Freya returned to Brando, she looked a little depressed. “Brando, this is a little different from what I thought.” She replied in a low voice.
“Remember what I said to you, one day, you can rely on your own strength to shelter Buche, so that the Buche people can dominate their own destiny without being at the mercy of the nobles.” Brando seemed to understand what she was thinking in her heart. , Relieved: “You did this today. All this proves that your efforts were not in vain. You set a goal for yourself and finally fulfilled your promise.”
“But……”
“But what?”
“But I can’t help thinking, if I don’t have where I am today, what would happen? Brando, how much I want the Butchers to be able to control their own destiny, but-the power to determine everyone’s destiny is only from The nobles have been transferred to my hands. They may live a peaceful life from now on, but even they themselves are not aware of this. If one day I want to push them into the fire pit, everything will repeat the same mistakes.” Liya answered quietly.
“My boy, but you wouldn’t do it after all, would you?” Madden replied.
“I know, but…”
The old man seemed to know what Freya was about to say, and interrupted her: “This is the rule of the nobles. If you are in it, you must abide by this rule. You have done well enough, my child.”
Freya pursed her mouth tightly, retorted, but didn’t know how to speak. She always felt that there was a problem, but she didn’t know where the problem was. Uncle Madden didn’t seem to be wrong, but she She felt very aggrieved in her heart, as if after working hard, she did not get the result she wanted; but she vaguely felt that if there is someone here who can answer her doubts, then that person must be Brando .
As if every time she felt confused, she still looked at Brando for the first time.
“Captain Madden is right, Freya,” Brando replied calmly, as if this question had never been a problem for him: “Under the rules of our time, this is already the most important thing. Good way.”
Brando’s words were like a flame illuminating the darkness and haze in Freya’s heart. She reacted at once, suddenly raised her head, and asked: “Brando, what do you mean by the rules-yes Can it be changed?”
Brando smiled at her slightly: “Isn’t this what we have been doing all the time, I, you, Your Royal Highness, and everyone is looking for the direction of progress.”
Freya opened her mouth slightly.
Madden seemed to have a taste, and couldn’t help but look at this young man who he had only been in contact with twice in the Black Rose War. He felt that he saw each other more clearly every time, but he got better every time. Surprised.
Brando replied softly: “So Freya, you must not be presumptuous, you must know what you are doing is far more glorious and glorious than you think. Your origin, your qualifications, in this In front of ideals and beliefs, it is like a grain of dust, which is not worth mentioning. Those who mock you and ridicule you do not understand what you think at all, because they can’t imagine the glory of Eruin Xiangu-this It’s the great cause of ordinary people, just like the oath made by Xianjun before his sword.”
“Young man,” Madden said after a long while after listening, “Do you believe this?”
Brando nodded: “I am sure, because I know that many people have given everything for this. Until now, many people have been overcoming obstacles for this belief and ideal. I dare not say whether it will definitely be. Success or failure, but I at least understand that I will not let it stop halfway.”
He turned his head back and said to Freya, “Freya, do you remember what you said? You made an oath to fight for an independent destiny for the Buchi people, so that everyone who pursues happiness and beauty One day you can not be manipulated by others. Do you remember what I said to you that day?”
“I remember,” Freya nodded vigorously, as if the haze that troubled her heart was just a thin layer of misty veil. With a light blow, it has long since vanished. She replied with a vow: “Brando, I understand, I will continue to stick to it, even if one day I shed my blood, I will never regret it. Brando, do you believe me, I will definitely do it. .”
“You did it, silly girl.” Brando heard Freya say that even if she shed all her blood, she would never give up. In the history of Eruin, this Valkyrie was indeed a cult for this ancient kingdom. All the last drop of blood.
Eruin’s ancient glory was the scene described in the legend, Madden did not dare to imagine, but he would not easily criticize the passion and impulse of young people. In any case, as long as the Buche people can live better tomorrow than today, he is already satisfied. He has seen too many illusory things. He is getting old and he no longer believes in the so-called beautiful vision. , Thought it was just a kind of vain; but he at least understood that Freya was a good girl and would never push the Boucher into a fire pit, that was enough.
Buch, who has endured wars and pains, only hopes to restore a peaceful life in the past.
The crowd gradually dispersed, but the patrol cavalry did not dare to act rashly. After a while, these young people finally figured out the identities of the two people in front of them-so they did not dare to act rashly, but one by one. It’s bad luck. Braggs has just gone through a war. It was the coalition of Tonigel, Lantonilan, and the Vieiro people who rescued them from their desperation. However, in this war, the Count of Tonigel and His Royal Highness The prestige of the Valkyrie is even more so. People who are related to both the army and the nobles will not have heard of the names of these two men, and once they learned that these two men actually had a background of Buche. , Everyone suddenly felt like they were kicking on the iron plate.
They were too late to sigh for Earl Nagin, who does not have eyes, because Earl Nagin can be said to be innocent, but they bumped into someone else. If this Lord Earl wants to deal with them, I am afraid. No one dares to stand up for them.
The patrol cavalry were anxious, but they did not expect that Brando and Freya would have forgotten them a long time ago-Brando is not so small after all, not to mention that he is very clear about Golan-Elson and even Karasu. Customs, fights and even duels between young and vigorous young people are very common. Both sides are quite regular. Although some people are injured, almost no one will kill him. He has no intention to criticize. As for the fact that these patrol cavalry ran for extra money, it is really such a trend. If you want to stop it, you can’t stop it. And he believes that with this lesson and his and Freya’s background here, the other party will probably not make this kind of mistake again in the future. , There is no need to offend people for no reason. The Buche people still have to live here after all. After these young cavalry are mostly local gentry and nobles, if they want to really fight against each other, he and Freya can’t always Take care of it here.
Freya had no such thoughts at all. She finally returned to her hometown once and saw those familiar faces, especially those from the militia in the past, surrounded by her. Tell me about the past experience, telling the story of her and the “Earl Tonigel”, but there are so many stories to tell between her and Brando, Freya made a big red face, hesitated for a long time and couldn’t tell. This is why, where do you remember what patrol cavalry.
Okin, the captain of the inspection cavalry, waited there for a long time with trepidation and anxiety, but he didn’t wait for someone to announce the death penalty or pardon for them. At first he thought it was the Lord Earl deliberately trying to hang them here, but waited for it. After a while, I finally felt that it didn’t seem to be the case. He finally took a chance, but he asked a young man from the militia team. The young man had his sword handed over before, and he was very polite to him before he came to ask Brando what to do with this. Guy, it wasn’t until this moment that Brando remembered that there was still such a group of people waiting for him to send it off.
When Eugene appeared in front of him with some trepidation, Brando couldn’t help being a little funny. He knew these guys very well, whether he was a player in his previous life or later in Ridenburg, he had witnessed this with his own eyes. Domineering and proud cavalry. In the early years, the patrol cavalry was part of the kingdom’s professional army that was responsible for local security and defense. However, since the establishment of the garrison, it has become a place for the nobles to place their cronies and arrange the way out for their children. The aristocracy of the army inevitably leads to discipline. Relaxation and corruption. After the years of blooming flowers and summer leaves, the patrol cavalry is basically a dispensable organization in many cities. In border cities like Braggs, it is slightly better, and it can maintain basic combat effectiveness. Those cities that go deep into the territory are pure moths.
In fact, the reason why he had forgotten these guys before was because he subconsciously thought that these guys had escaped, but he forgot that in front of his own real-power Earl, it seemed that these patrol cavalry were not even bold enough. Dare to leave without asking.
Eugene was a little surprised when he saw Brando. He probably didn’t expect the legendary Earl to be so young as this, but he also thought of other rumors about the Tonigel Earl-for example. Talking about the grandson of Sword Saint Darus, and some rumors about him and His Royal Highness-I feel relieved again. Besides, it is often said that this adult is a rare young genius in Eruin in a century. Only in this way, he is worthy. Get the title of a young genius. He coughed quickly, straightened his posture, bowed his head and said in a polite manner: “Earl, what happened today…in fact, it was actually a misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding?” Brando was still thinking about how this guy would apologize. He didn’t expect that it would still be such a boring old routine. It was really not creative at all. He couldn’t help but yawned and asked: “What’s the misunderstanding?”
“That’s it, sir,” Eukin said quickly, “…Everyone thinks that we are here to help Earl Nagin drive them away. This is actually pure rumors. Let’s not say anything to everyone. Driving away from the forest is just a rumor in itself, and even if it is true, it is not within the scope of our duties. In fact, sir, we are here because of other official duties.”
“Other official duties?”
“My lord, we heard earlier reports that a group of wicked gangsters showed up in Braggs. These guys left the city around the evening, and then our eyeliner discovered that they were haunting here, so I chased them all the way. come over.”
“I guess, then you ran into little Phoenix and the others again, and you just had a fight on the way, right?”
Ou Jin nodded slyly. Of course he could put aside all the responsibilities, but he knew that he might not have deceived the young Earl, so he might as well tell the truth to avoid unpleasantness. Brando nodded, probably understanding the cause and effect of the matter. I thought these people searched all the way, and then met Little Phoenix and his party. There was originally enmity on both sides. The patrol cavalry relied on the large number of people and wanted to catch it. Live the opportunity to report revenge. This is a more reasonable explanation. Brando knows very well that the so-called mission will not be a matter to these nobles later. As for the so-called wicked people who have caught it, it will be regarded as a credit. There is no lack of so-called credit.
However, he was a little curious about how these so-called desperate gangs exist. Theoretically speaking, there are already a lot of desperadoes in Braggs, but if you want to attract the attention of these patrolling cavalry, it is at least satisfying. Two conditions-first, it must be not a local. Most local desperadoes have something to do with the Brotherhood of Thieves or other organizations in the gray area. These organizations are generally inextricably linked to the local nobles. Therefore, the inspection cavalry generally does not find trouble with their own family members, although even Brando does not say why the inspection cavalry and the desperadoes became their own family members, this can be regarded as a landscape of Eruin in this era. And secondly, there must be a certain number. One or two criminals are not in the eyes of the patrol cavalry. It’s not that they don’t want to care, but because of their efficiency, they probably don’t notice the existence of such one or two people.
The current situation obviously means that a large group of lawless elements have mixed into the city, so that even the patrol cavalry are alarmed, Brando feels that this is a bit like a cultist’s style of acting.
But when he asked about it, Eugene hadn’t said why, but the little Phoenix on the side seemed to have heard something. He ran over and said, “Brother Brando, I seem to know these guys.”
“you know?”
Brando looked at him curiously.
