The twenty-eighth festival is full of guests
The territory of Baron Wendell in Lidaburg was usually closed and self-sufficient barons. Now, because of the wedding of the Baron's son Ive, the narrow door of Lidaburg was opened to welcome guests from all sides to celebrate. The butler of Lidaburg, Andrea, busy commanding the servants to arrange the wedding venue. Lidaburg is a composite building of the manor and a small fortress, and there is no shortage of banquet venues. People emptied a warehouse in the manor, and placed wooden tables and chairs inside, enough to accommodate more than a hundred people to eat at the same time.
At this time, snowflakes began to fall in the sky. If it was summer, you could have a garden tour in the courtyard. However, the thick snow on the ground made the children very happy to play. Even some ladies played happily. The Wendell family, as the owner, only prepared hot water and food. When the guests were tired of playing, they asked them to wash their hands and warm their cold hands and feet with hot water.
"Auntie, this is a gift for the newlyweds." Relatives from the Wendell family came to bless Yifu's wedding. Mrs. Eva sat in the living room in Lida Castle, and the room supported by arched stone pillars looked a little low, but in the eyes of the Wendell family, this was already a very wealthy performance. The cabinets on the east side of the indoor walls were filled with various pottery. Mrs. Eva was wearing a blue open-collar long skirt and smilingly sat on the wooden chair to receive the blessings of her relatives. Her little daughter Lina was wearing a small blue dress, grabbed her mother's knees with her little hands, and stared at the people around her curiously with her round blue eyes.
"Thank you for coming from afar." Mrs. Eva accepted the small box she sent, which contained a silver cross pendant. Although it was very ordinary, Mrs. Eva still politely asked the servants to take the guests to the guest room to rest. The relatives of the Wendell family were not rich, and it was mostly rural gentry. Now that I saw that the Wendell family was developed, they all came to surrender. In fact, this is also a custom of the Germans. When you are down and out, you can go to surrender to wealthy relatives. When you are developed, you must accept relatives and friends who come to surrender to you.
"Mother, Sir Avan is here." At this time, a servant came in and reported to Mrs. Ava. Hearing the servant's report, Mrs. Ava stood up and walked out of the living room. Sure enough, she saw Sir Avan riding a horse and leading several of her servants into Lida Castle. Baron Wendell took Iff to greet her.
"Haha, Sir Avan." Baron Wendell was wearing a thin linen top today and tight trousers on his lower body. The coat was a brand new fur robe. He wore a golden headband on his head. Seeing Sir Avan he smiled and greeted him.
"Oh, dear baron, my lovely son-in-law." Sir Avan had a hard time dismounting with the help of his servants. The sir looked at the beautifully-scenery of Lida and was delighted that his daughter could marry into such a wealthy family.
"Welcome to you, jazz." Ifu also wore it. The clothes on his body cost enough for an ordinary farmer's family to be busy for a year. His blue shirt, velvet jacket, and various pendants and decorations were worn. Even the rude movements in the past seemed to disappear. On this happy day, Ifu's face was filled with a happy and joyful look.
"My lovely son-in-law, you look like the most heroic knight in the entire principality." Sir Afan exclaimed at Ive, but he felt a little regretful. How could he have missed Baron Wendell's other son, Arod,? He thought that Arod's greatest achievement in his life was just a jazz, but he did not expect to conquer the territory along the Baltic Sea and become an important Count. It was said that not only Duke Mason and his heir Earl Earl Earl are trying their best to win over, but even the royal family is paying close attention to Arod. If his daughter marrys Arod, then Josephine is the countess rather than a jazz lady.
"Thank you for your praise, Sir. I swear to God and the Virgin that Josephine will be happy." Ifu's face turned rosy due to excitement, and it was warm even in the cold and cold center. He tried hard to straighten his body and swear to his father-in-law.
"Haha, this child." Baron Wendell and Sir Avan laughed and were very satisfied with their marriage. In order to celebrate his daughter's wedding, Sir Avan accompanied him with four barrels of olive oil, three barrels of wine, three trained male servants and three maids, and a thousand silver houses. The dowry's property is rich.
"By the way, where is your youngest son, Earl Arod?" Sir Avan walked in the courtyard of Lida Castle with Baron Wendell, creaking sounds while stepping on the snow. Being able to own a courtyard is the dream of every nobleman. The servants shuttled around them and brought the fragrant food from the kitchen into the warehouse.
"Arod set out a few days ago from his territory. The servant he sent arrived at Liddar Castle yesterday and told us that we might be here today. You also know that he had just fought a battle with the Slavs, and even his army was still in Rostock County, and he had to come to attend his brother's wedding." Baron Wendell said with a proud look. His two sons were very outstanding, especially Arrod had become an important earl in the Mason Duke.
"Is that true? Baron, after Ifu's wedding, you will go to Mason Castle to take up the post of military chief." Sir Avan nodded, but his double chin could only see him shaking his fat body a few times.
"Yes, Count Earl Eble has sent the appointment letter, and Arod's appointment letter is also sent." Baron Wendell said with a smile. It was something he had never dared to think of before.
"What? Arod's appointment?" Sir Afan was stunned. As a low-ranking nobleman, he didn't know the rumors. He couldn't believe that although Arod was already an earl in a county, he was so young. How could he get an important position in the court of the Principality? You must know that if those old vassals knew about it, they would not sit idly by.
"Mr. Palace Prime Minister, his position is Palace Prime Minister." Baron Wendell said to Sir Evan, his tone was so complicated with joy and concern. He was also very worried that Arod could not suppress those qualified vassals and court officials. This was simply roasting Arod on the fire.
"The Palace, the Palace Prime Minister, unprecedented." Sir Aifan was completely shocked. What is the position of the Palace Prime Minister? He was the steward of the Principality, who controlled the financial power of the entire Principality and was the most important position in the palace. Only the most capable and the most trusted person can be held.
"Yes." Baron Wendell also sighed. Who would have thought that the once declining Wendell family had two ministers, and both military and financial power fell on their own family.
"Is this the rebirth of the short Piping and his son?" Sir Aifan thought in his heart, but he did not dare to say it. If others knew about this, it would cause trouble to the Wendell family. The former great nobleman of the Frank Kingdom, Piping and his son, served as the Prime Minister of the Kingdom Palace for a row. Later, Piping and the short man simply abolished the cowardly and incompetent king and made himself king. This kind of power is the envy of other nobles, and it is also the creation of a brilliant and powerful dynasty. This experience is the dream of any ambitious aristocratic family.
"Hey, Sir Avan are you very hot?" Baron Wendell saw Sir Avan stretching out his sleeve and wiping the sweat on his forehead. He felt very strange. In this cold and cold season, Sir Avan actually sweated on his forehead. This was really strange.
"Haha, yes, it's really hot all the way." Sir Avan said with a hurried smile.
"This is my negligence. You came so far away. I immediately asked the servants to take you to your room. Where the fireplace has burned, you can rest." Baron Wendell apologized for his negligence. At this moment, they heard the voice of a soldier coming from the watchtower above the city gate.
"A team of men came to us."
"Who is it?" Baron Wendell was very surprised when he heard this. At this time, Mason County was safe and there was no war in the public. How could a large group of people come?
"I saw it, it was the flag of Count Arod, yes, they were here." The soldiers stood on the watchtower, covered with their hands above the helmets, and looked carefully at the team walking from the forest trail, and saw the leader of the team a knight in his hand, a black lion flag in his hand, a horse riding knight, and a walking servant, and several baggage carriages. Among the knights, a young nobleman wearing a wool fur fur robe, a cloak made of black velvet, and a soft hat on his head with white feathers. They rode a horse slowly towards Lida Castle in the snow.
"Oh, my little son is finally here." Baron Wendell walked proudly towards the city gate. Sir Avan didn't care about resting and hurriedly followed the baron. Hearing the noise outside the city gate the neighing of horses and the creaking sound of the snow on the ground by the wheels. Many others also looked curiously from the windows and corridors.
"Arod~~." When Baron Wendell saw Arod surrounded by knights in bright armor, he shouted happily to them. When he saw Baron Wendell's tired face, he also smiled. He knocked the belly of the horse under his crotch and trotted towards the Baron. When he was a few steps away from the city gate, he jumped off the horse, and the knights in the inner palace hurriedly followed him.
