Chapter 155

Chapter 155

Three griffins stopped opposite the royal griffin team. They spread their wings to each other and made low chirping sounds, revealing threats and warnings.

Fortunately, these griffins are professionally trained mounts, and they are not like buffaloes who have the urge to fight when they meet.

A tall man jumped down from the back of the leading white griffin.

He was not wearing armor like the two knights behind him but was wearing a well-fitting and gorgeous dress.

With golden brown hair and lavender pupils, this man is undoubtedly Jesus, the younger brother of His Majesty Bruno.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect it to be so lively here."

Jesus strode forward, his voice extremely loud and hearty.

"Just now, when I looked up from the sky, I thought everyone was here to welcome me. Now it seems that everyone is here to welcome my niece."

Roning stepped forward, and Blanche released her hand just in time.

"Wushan Castle also welcomes you, Lord Earl of Moonlight Valley."

Jesus glanced at Roning, and the smile on his face turned into displeasure.

"I say, Wushanbao is a marquisate family, after all. It's too rude to arrange for a young man like you to welcome Her Royal Highness the Princess for such a big occasion, right?"

Jesus questioned Roning in a lecturing tone in front of all the nobles. This was unexpected not only to Roning but also to many nobles.

You know, nobles maintain etiquette on many occasions, especially large public occasions.

However, as the saying goes, "mind your own business." In addition to being surprised, most people looked at Roning with amusement as if they were watching a show.

How would this baron from the mountains respond when faced with such a situation?

Lu Lansi could come forward to welcome the princess, or he could not.

Although Blanche is a princess and Ruland is a marquis, there is not much difference between their status.

You can answer it or not.

Luo Ning smiled slightly and explained in a leisurely tone: "Grandpa said that young people can talk about more things together, so he arranged for me to receive you. If the hospitality is not good enough, please forgive me, Lord Earl."

"Even if a young person is arranged, it should be Breton who has the right of inheritance, right?"

Jesus followed Ronin's words and said, "Is Lulansi going to violate the laws passed down by the empire and establish two heirs simultaneously?"

Suddenly, an inexplicable atmosphere of tension spread, and many nobles looked sideways, wondering what Count Jesus was doing here on earth.

In the crowd, Bretton wanted to rush up to defend Roning but was stopped by Dai Anni, "You can't help Roning in this situation."

She had no idea what was going on. In the past, when Lulans had birthday parties, Jesus would never make a special trip to come.

After all, the other party is the King's younger brother. Even if he doesn't go to the palace on days like the New Year, there are still many things to take care of in his territory.

She was really surprised that Jesus had come here.

Luo Ning was naturally unhappy. If he were on Earth, he would have started to fight back long ago.

Only now, he couldn't.

He now represents Wushanbao and Lulans. He must try to maintain his proper demeanor and etiquette even if provoked.

"Breton is still young, so it is more appropriate for me, who is about the same age as Her Royal Highness, to greet him."

He looked the other person straight in the eye, without any nervousness or fear on his face, and said in a low voice, "Count Jesus, you and my grandfather are both vassals of the kingdom. Some things cannot be said casually, even as a joke."

Jesus' eyes were slightly cold. What did this kid mean by that? Threatening him?

"I heard that you have changed a lot. Today, I see that it is true."

At this time, Princess Blanche said, "Uncle Jesus, please follow me into the castle."

The atmosphere became relaxed.

Jesus laughed and walked past Ronin, "Dear Blanche, I didn't expect to see you here."

He said, and he gave Blanche a gentle hug.

"The last time I saw you was about six years ago. At that time, you were only as tall as my shoulders. Now, you are almost as tall as me."

The two men cheerfully greeted each other, and then Jesus said hello to the nobles on both sides of the road. They entered Wushan Castle, which a group of people surrounded.

Roning still stood beside Blanche, but he paid more attention to Jesus this time. His intuition told him that this man had come here to cause trouble.

From the moment he landed, Jesus had an attitude of usurping the throne. Not only was he arrogant towards Ronin, but he also gradually stole the limelight from Blanche, as if he had become the day's protagonist.

If you don't know, you might think this welcome party was hosted for Jesus.

Roning thought about the possibility of the other party coming here.

Count Jesus's Moonlight Valley territory is located southwest of Wushan Territory. To its west is the Royal Territory, to its north is the Howling Sea, to its south is a relatively chaotic area, and to its east is adjacent to the Pointed Horn City of Wushan Territory.

His Majesty King Bruno has two younger brothers: Jesus and Ferrens.

Surprisingly enough, Ferens was the master of the Duchy of Ferensburg and the Grand Duke;

Jesus was not only not a duke; he was not even a marquis, but only a count.

Although Moonlight Valley's scenery is very nice, it is hard to believe that such an arrangement is not justified.

In addition to this information, Roning also noticed that the Polante bandit group that seemed to be troubling Wushan Territory was active in the southwest area.

Is Count Jesus behind this gang of thieves?

After the unexpected episode, the team successfully arrived at the newly decorated auditorium.

Here, Lu Lan Si met with Her Royal Highness the Princess and announced that Wushan Castle would hold a banquet tonight to welcome Blanche.

Since Jesus entered the auditorium and met Rulands, he has behaved very restrainedly, completely losing his previous aggressive attitude.

After the excitement, Rulans took the other nobles away, leaving only Roning and Blanche in the huge auditorium. Even the guards stayed outside.

In his two lifetimes, Luo Ning had never even been on a blind date, let alone an arranged marriage. He felt a little nervous and quite embarrassed.

"That..."

He didn't want the atmosphere dull and said, "Let me introduce myself again. I'm the eldest grandson of Marquis Wushan, the Baron of Shanlin Town, Luo Ning."

"I know your story."

The corners of Blanche's mouth raised to just the right angle; her smile was neither too ostentatious nor too restrained, making people feel relaxed at a glance.

Only she knew in her heart that she was embarrassed and nervous.

Ever since the partners of her previous two arranged marriages had both died of illness, rumors had spread that she was unlucky in marriage. In addition, since no one had come to her house to propose marriage in recent years, she had fallen into anxiety and inferiority.

She was the kingdom's princess, so why did she become despised?

So this time, when she heard her father say that he would marry her to a baron who had been deprived of his right to inherit the title of Marquis, although she was reluctant in her heart, she agreed to come and take a look.

She didn't expect the young baron in front of her to be much better than she had imagined. His demeanor, bearing, and on-the-spot reaction were all very good.

"Hillwood Town, what kind of place is that?" she asked.

Luo Ning considered it seriously and smiled, "It is remote and barren, but it has great potential."

This statement may seem normal, but it explains Roning's situation.

What value does a baron from a remote, barren area have?

As for the claim that it has huge development potential, anyone with normal judgment knows how much water this statement has.

He thought Blanche would be surprised or unhappy when she heard this, but her expression did not change.

"With your wisdom, you can bring about great changes there." Blanche smiled.
