Chapter 202 Feast
Chapter 202 Feast
Count Weiss promised a lot.
As a loser and a noble, he knew very well what these people in front of him needed and wanted most.
He can give everything, so it's a deal.
"Mr. Hector is obviously dissatisfied with the deal between the Earl and the Church, but as an heir and a child, he has no right to blame his father. He can only choose to give up the rights of the nobility and his bright future."
"Praise the Lord of Light, Mr. Hector is simply the embodiment of noble virtues. Even if a god were to descend to the earth, he could not surpass his noble qualities."
Ryan said this sincerely, and couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe the corners of his tearful eyes.
This scene stunned the surrounding nobles, including the cat-man.
Count Weiss couldn't help but twitch his mouth, Count Winter took a deep breath, and Count Zoro reacted.
"Indeed, Hector has always been a noble of the empire. Even if he is willing to return to Thundercloud County to inherit the land, we will fully support him."
Come back? He definitely can't come back. The nobles of Leiyun County will definitely be the first to stop him.
"Then, that's it."
Count Weiss slumped in his chair. At that moment, he seemed to have aged decades. White hair appeared on his head, and he became an old man.
His heart was dead, but he obviously would not die, nor could he die in the North Wind Province. He had to go to the south of the empire, to the imperial capital, to tell all the nobles about the contributions of the nobles of the North Wind Province.
Seeing several nobles and the white-haired Count Weiss walking out of the study, all the nobles outside were shocked. They stared at Count Weiss blankly.
"I think all the nobles will not forget the price of colluding with the Holy See today."
Count Winter spoke, and all the nobles bowed their heads.
No matter what happened in the past, they certainly have no intention of compromising with the Vatican now.
"Earl Love Weiss will be sent to the Imperial City for trial, and all members of the Weiss family will follow. The nobles of Thundercloud County must also send their heirs to the Imperial City for trial. You and Earl Weiss actually made some unspeakable deals with the Holy See."
Earl Winter said this with deep sorrow, but the nobles of Thundercloud County were not happy about it and stood up excitedly one by one.
"Governor Winter, what right do you have to slander us?"
"We have never colluded with the Holy See. This was Earl Weiss's decision alone. It has nothing to do with us."
"We just participated in the land war and we just accepted the defeat of the war."
"My Lord Earl, this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. How could we collude with the Holy See? We didn't know the Holy See would appear."
Some are afraid, some are angry, some are smart and some are stupid.
In short, the hall was full of excitement at this moment.
"Really? Did we just believe Count Weiss's one-sided story?"
"Whether it's true or not, it's hard to tell."
Count Sauron said maturely.
Some nobles in Leiyun County also reacted.
The struggles between nobles usually did not force each other to death, but whenever there was room for maneuver, it was a compromise of interests. Therefore, when Earl Weiss was on his way to the Imperial City, the highest mountain in Thunder Cloud County had already become a division of the land and nobles of Thunder Cloud County.
"Baron Ryan..."
An aristocrat looked at Ryan eagerly, and Ryan, who was well prepared, took out a note.
It contained a description of the merits and division of benefits of all the nobles in this war. Unexpectedly, after hearing the end, no noble stood up to refute or express dissatisfaction.
Thus, Ryan gained the title of a fair and just commander.
Almost all the nobles were very satisfied with the description of his merits, which made Ryan realize that he might have given too much.
But it doesn't matter. These nobles will become thorns in certain places in Leiyun County. The wealth and benefits brought by this war are countless, but it is also because of this that when the nobles of Leiyun County relax, conflicts with these nobles will inevitably break out.
They will become the line of defense in front of Ryan's territory, because in the division of credits, Ryan put his own territory and the interests of Earl Winter and Earl Sauron in a safe, non-disputed, and extremely wealthy place.
Count Weiss's territory is very large. Especially when Count Weiss had the ambition to rule the Borean Province a long time ago, he was constantly reclaiming wasteland. The so-called territory of this earl was regarded as the largest among the three earls.
It was also because of this that when the benefits were divided, Ryan gave more credit to all the nobles, and even gave some extra credit to Viscount Walter of Tieshan County and other nobles of Tieshan County.
Tieshan County has now parted ways with Earl Winter, otherwise Viscount Walter would not have appeared today. War can end all the favors on both sides, and the nobles who put interests above all else will not always be loyal to the great nobles.
During the war, Tieshan County suffered heavy losses.
The division of Count Weiss's land interests was completed, and only the war reparations remained.
All of Count Weiss's wealth, as well as that alternate dimension world, will become compensation options for the failure of the war. Preliminary estimates show that, excluding that alternate dimension world, the amount will be at least 3.5 million gold coins.
To be honest, this number is a bit small for a count's noble family with a heritage of hundreds of years or even longer. But according to Count Weiss, he has given everything for this war, and a large amount of wealth has been sent to the south of the empire and those supporters.
Of course, what has not been said is that the Earl's eldest son Hector went to the west coast and must have taken away a lot of wealth.
In addition, there are thunder giants, barbarians, alchemists, necromancers and the like, who are all big consumers of wealth.
This was normal, and the nobles expressed their understanding. Then their eyes could not help but fall on the nobles of Leiyun County.
No matter how much wealth Earl Weiss gave to the south, a lot of wealth must remain with the nobles in Leiyun County, otherwise it would be impossible for all the nobles in Leiyun County to support him.
The war reparations, of course, also included these nobles, who were also the losers of the war.
"Viscount Hogg..."
Ryan said in a low voice, causing many nobles to breathe heavier. Yes, there are also nobles from Yinchuan County, which has the most fertile land in the North Wind Province. They are also supporters of Earl Weiss.
But for now, let’s clean out Leiyun County first.
The nearly 800,000 war reparations made Ryan feel the wealth of the nobles in Thundercloud County. However, when he saw the murderous eyes of those nobles, he still did not laugh.
Politically, economically, and in terms of land, the victorious nobles divided up Leiyun County. During this process, the nobles were very noisy and quarreled.
Only Baron Ryan, Earl Winter and Earl Solon were relatively calm.
Although they gained the greatest benefit in this division, it was not as much as they had imagined, because a lot was given to other nobles. However, all the nobles understood that the feast was not over yet for the three of them.
