- Louis Imperial Capital, a dilapidated and old small hotel. /
The owner of the shop wiped the tin wine glass with a piece of white cloth until it made a squeaking sound. He looked at it carefully several times by the dim firelight in the shop. After making sure that it had been wiped clean, he gently Gently put the glass down.
It¡¯s no wonder that the shop owner attaches so much importance to it. There are only eleven such tin wine glasses in his shop. If they are broken or lost, the shop owner will be very distressed.
Looking up, there were only three or two people drinking in the small hotel. They sighed softly and shook their heads.
This business is getting harder and harder!
There is nothing that can be done about it. In an empire like Louis, the word luxury has long been deeply integrated into the bones of every Louisian. People who come to drink will definitely be in awe as soon as they see the facade and interior decoration of their tavern. Walking to the nearby tavern, even if the owner of that tavern can mix one glass of wine with water into three glasses of wine, the average Louisian will not look back at his own tavern.
If it weren't for the fact that the fine wine in his shop is never mixed with water, if it weren't for the fact that he owns eleven tin wine glasses that can only be used by noble families, or if it weren't for the fact that there are more or less people in the Louis Imperial City who only drink wine without looking at the shop. He is an old drunkard, and his small shop has been closed down long ago.
"Boss serve the wine"
Just when the little boss was feeling sorry for himself, the lunatic sitting in the corner asked him to serve wine again.
"Come here"
The little boss agreed out of habit. When he saw that it was the lunatic again, he couldn't help but grimace.
"Hey, madman, why are you so quiet today? Why don't you tell me the story about the thorn flower?"
Before the young boss could bring the wine, a drinker next to him started teasing the lunatic.
This is a madman who appeared in this small hotel half a month ago. Since the first day he appeared here, he has been drinking here for fifteen days in a row, always opening the door and leaving only after closing.
Logically speaking, when the owner of a small hotel is struggling to support his business, he should like such an alcoholic. As long as he gives money, he will give him as much as he wants.
But the fact is that the little boss feels a headache.
It¡¯s not that this guy doesn¡¯t pay the money he owes, but that every time he drinks too much, he will make drunken nonsense in a wild and arrogant way.
"The Louis Empire is going to perish", "The Thorn Flower has arrived", "I don't know how many people are going to die at the hands of the Thorn Flower Knights", and so on, there are many names.
No one took what he said seriously. These drunkards didn't even know what a thorn flower was. How could they possibly understand what this guy was talking about.
" However, this does not affect the happiness of all the drinkers except the little boss. After all, no matter how little water is added to the little boss's wine, drinking alone seems monotonous. It is also a pleasure to have such a guy to mess around for a while.
Therefore, people here have never asked this guy¡¯s name, and this guy himself has never said it. Everyone calls him crazy, so he continued to go crazy after drinking.
The little boss walked into the madman with a wine bottle and quickly covered his nose.
What does this smell like! ?
The smell of sweat, wine, rancid clothes, and the smell of feet all mix together to create a refreshing experience. No matter who smells it, it will definitely lift their spirits.
I¡¯m afraid this guy has done nothing else except drinking in the past half month, let alone taking a shower and washing clothes.
The little boss poured a full glass of wine for the madman, looked at him, and shook his head again.
The little boss is a down-and-out nobleman, which is the fundamental reason why he can use tin wine glasses to greet customers in his small shop.
He is not good at business, and his ancestors did not leave any ancestral property. It can be said that except for the lowest noble title, the young boss inherited nothing. This makes his life very difficult in Louis, a country that laughs at poverty but not at prostitution. .
However, this does not affect the unique vision of the small boss.
Although this guy who is called a lunatic is in a very embarrassing state now, from the color of his clothes and the degree of wear and tear on his clothes, it can be seen that this guy was definitely a noble man who did well in the past. At least it was like this a month ago.
With a disgraced face and a broken arm, he drinks and talks nonsense all day long.
The little boss couldn't imagine what this lunatic had gone through to make the nobleman who was so high-spirited a month ago fall into such a state of decline now.
But at the same time, the end of the world has fallenFalling people, why meet before?
The same experience and background made the little boss take great care of this madman. Although it was better than nothing, the little boss did it with peace of mind and a clear conscience.
Looking at the full glass of wine, the madman raised his head and looked carefully at the little boss with his drunken and slanted eyes through the messy hair on his forehead. In just a moment, the gratitude in his eyes was covered by numbness and indifference. .
"ah¡¡"
A strange cry frightened the little boss and the few drinkers in the shop.
"Do you know that the thorn flower has arrived, and Louis is in danger?"
With a roar, he looked fierce!
"He is crazy!"
The little boss¡¯ little heart was so frightened that no matter how good-tempered he was, no matter how much he felt that he was in the same boat as a madman, he couldn¡¯t help but curse.
Compared with the way the small boss expresses his dissatisfaction, the way other drinkers express their dissatisfaction is much more direct and more intense.
¡°Nima¡ I was shocked¡¡±
"I call you crazy, are you really fucking crazy!?"
"What are you yelling about here? If you have the ability, go to the palace to yell, or else go to the Duke of Dalles Palace to yell And a disaster is imminent? A disaster is imminent, what can you, a madman, do"
The madman didn¡¯t know whether he was stimulated by the words or suddenly remembered something. He screamed strangely and rushed out of the tavern without even touching the wine on the table!
In the small shop, the young boss and other drinkers looked at each other.
"Bahit's really crazy"
"Nima I didn't give you any money!"
The little boss hurriedly chased him out. As soon as he went out, he froze there, holding back the word "give money" in his mouth.
On the mainland outside the door, a group of knights were escorting a carriage. The people were like tigers and the horses were like dragons. The first flag was embroidered with the finest gold thread to have a heraldry - the golden iris!
And the guy who was called a madman by everyone in the hotel was kneeling in the middle of the road, facing Darcy's motorcade.
With his forehead clenched, he raised one arm and clutched the empty sleeve on his other side. Although he was trying his best to suppress it, the little boss could still clearly see that the lunatic's body was trembling slightly because he was crying and crying.
?¡divided¡
Duke Darcy's Mansion, study.
The guy who was called the madman had already taken a shower and changed his clothes. He had calmed down his emotions and was sitting steadily in the study. He did not show any restraint because of the identity and power of the old man opposite him.
If the people in the small hotel saw this scene, they would stare out their eyes at the first moment, because the person opposite the madman is the head of the powerful Darcy family in the Louis Empire!
Duke Barbarenza looked at the young man in front of him quietly and felt a lot for a while.
He led 13,000 troops to invade the Charles Empire. In the end, he was the only one who ran back. Although he lost an arm, he still escaped with his life. He was luckier than his two third-generation descendants. Too much.
This young man is none other than Harvey, who was called a fool by the Louis aristocratic circle!
Thirteen thousand people all died. For such a failure, someone must take responsibility. Who will! ? The answer is self-evident, Harvey escaped alone!
After a series of procedures including interrogation, forced confession, and punishment, the fool Harvey was almost tortured to death. Although they knew that Harvey was not responsible for this, the officials of the Louis Empire still did not let him off lightly.
Barbaronza also knew all this, and he also saw Harvey's dejection on the road. Barbaronza was ready to spare him, so their team took Harvey with them to bathe and change clothes.
Barbarenza knew that the words and deeds of his Darcy family were closely watched by countless people in the dark. Today, he brought Harvey back to the Duke of Darcy's Palace and became a guest. Then, starting tomorrow , no one will make things difficult for him anymore.
This is what Barbaronza thought and did. He thought that Harvey was kneeling in the middle of the avenue and all he wanted was the protection of the Darcy family. But Barbaronza was wrong.
Harvey didn¡¯t think so, or in other words, not entirely.
After Harvey took a bath and changed clothes, Barbaronca knew that Harvey was definitely not as simple as he thought, because this young man acted too calmly after he was in a big disaster and was wanted to blame. of the sea, but Barbaronca knew that the greatThe calm sea must be rough!
"Thank you, respected Grand Duke Darcy, Harvey will report to you with his life"
"Life? What use is your life to me?"
"It didn't happen before, and it may not happen in the future, but now, it is useful."
"What is the use?"
"I can find the Knights of Thorns!"
Harvey¡¯s words are not surprising.
"Oh, well, tell me, where is the Knights of Thorns now?"
Barbaronza was not frightened by Harvey's shocking words, and asked straight to the core of the problem.
"NowI don't know"
Harvey's ignorance did not arouse Barbaronza's disdain or contempt, because this guy was too calm, and he did not have the embarrassment of having his lies exposed, nor the embarrassment of his words being different. Instead, he looked directly at him with bright eyes. The patriarch of the Darcy family.
"But, I know that the Knights of Thorns have definitely not left the Louis Empire! Because Roland is too domineering! Domineering people will not only bully weak persimmons. With Roland's character, he will definitely stay, and he will definitely stay in the Louis Empire. Find an opponent he likes, and only after a good fight can he leave!"
Harvey looked at Barbarenza with bright eyes.
"As long as he hasn't left the Louis Empire, I will definitely be able to find him!"
