Chapter 67 King Eric Started to Do It?
Although Xu Yi once owned the private land of Falling Rain Valley when he was in the Lampari Kingdom, he was not used to being a noble lord at that time, and he just regarded Falling Rain Valley as the production base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Construction, of course, does not have any awareness of being a noble lord.
And later, because of the situation, he voluntarily gave up his aristocratic status and handed over that piece of private land, and he didn't have any particularly practical feelings about this kind of private land of a nobleman.
But this time it was different.
The situation of the Principality of Standing is completely different from that of the Kingdom of Lampari. The upper strata of the Principality of Standing represented by the Grand Duke of Standing have almost no real binding force on the noble lords in the Principality.
So Xu Yi has a private territory here, which is equivalent to his personal exclusive territory.
According to Lord Weilun, in this territory, no matter what Xu Yi does, no one will control him. Even if he kills people and sets fire at will, no one will express any opinion on him, because no one has the qualifications.
Of course Xu Yi would not do murder and arson in his own territory—book—bar— .{}.m things, but he really needs this feeling of free control, because only in this way can he freely control the territory according to his own ideas. Make a plan, and it will not be like the previous plan for the Rainfall Valley, which is subject to various limitations and is not perfect. Moreover, the area of this private territory is more than 240,000 hectares, a total of more than 2,000 square kilometers, dozens of times larger than the area of 10 square kilometers in Luoyu Valley. Of course, it must be more generous in planning. many.
Of course, he is also very clear about the extent of this kind of freedom. It is based on the strength he possesses.
If he doesn't have enough strength to protect this territory. Then when needed. He believed that Lord Weilun would absolutely unceremoniously re-swallow this territory into his stomach.
So after officially becoming the lord of this territory, Xu Yi immediately reorganized the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and organized the most elite 500 guards into his own personal guards.
As Yanis said, even the elf warriors who are known for their arrogance in the Chamber of Commerce guards have no resistance to becoming his personal guards. On the contrary, many elf warriors heard that they would be Xu Yi's personal guards Afterwards, there was a clear expression of joy.
Xu also asked Fario, the captain of the elf guard, about this question, and Fario replied. This was originally what Elder Elsia meant, and he is now a human being unanimously recognized by all the elves of the Nightsong tribe, becoming his personal guard. For them, elf warriors, there is no sense of humiliation, because they They all agreed with Xu Yi, and felt that Xu Yi was the one who changed the fate of the entire Yege tribe, even if they sacrificed their lives for Xu Yi, there would be no problem. On the contrary, serving as the guard of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not easy for them to fully accept.
Because Xinfei Chamber of Commerce does not belong to Xu Yi alone. This will make them feel that they are still working for human beings other than Xu Yi.
As for those dwarf warriors, naturally there is no doubt.
Even after Xu Yi expressed his intention to form a private guard. Because of the limited number of places, the thirteen dwarf tribes who moved to the Principality of Standing along with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce held a big contest, claiming to select the most elite dwarf warriors to join Xu Yi's personal guard.
You ask human guards?
Do I still need to ask? The guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are treated so well, so of course Xu Yi's private guards can only be treated better.
When I heard that Xu Yi wanted to recruit private guards, not to mention that the human guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce guards all squeezed their heads and wanted to come in, even many elite human fighters from other places knew about this through various channels After the news, they rushed over.
However, Xu Yi didn't want his personal guard to be mixed with some people he didn't know very well, so he selected some of these people to join the guard of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
To Xu Yi's surprise, when Elder Lisanya heard that Xu Yi was going to form a private guard, he also dispatched two hundred elf warriors from the Moon Shadow tribe, saying that they wanted to join Xu Yi's private guard. .
After careful consideration, Xu Yi tactfully rejected Elder Lisanya's kindness.
In the end, Elder Lisanya did not let the two hundred elf warriors of the Moon Shadow Tribe go back, but also stuffed them into the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
In the end, although Xu Yi took away the most elite 500 fighters from the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the number of guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce increased from the previous 1,200 to 1,500.
Of course, due to running-in reasons, and because the newly joined fighters of various races are not yet familiar with the various high-end military magic machinery equipment of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce guards, in terms of combat effectiveness, I am afraid that they are not as good as the previous 1,200 soldiers. guard.
But Xu Yi is not worried about this.
The orcs on the Black Rice Wasteland are like weeds, with extremely tenacious vitality. No matter how many times they are cleaned up, some unsightly orcs will still emerge.
These orc tribes can't pose any threat to the huge and well-defended base on the Black Rice Wasteland, but it is very good for the newcomers of the chamber of commerce guards to practice their hands.
After receiving the honor and the territory, Xu Yi was always busy with a series of events, until he finally arranged the affairs of the private guard and the chamber of commerce guard, and made the development plan of the Xinfei chamber of commerce for the next period of time. Well, time has moved forward again for several months.
After entering July, the coming of summer made the climate in the Duchy of Standing even hotter and humid, but Xu Yi managed to find some free time during this period.
When he finally found time to turn his attention to Bangta City and the Kingdom of Lampari, he discovered that the situation in the Kingdom of Lampari had once again undergone a huge change.
In the past few months, a large number of nobles, large and small, were forcibly deprived of their noble status by the noble council in the Lampari Kingdom, and all their property and noble territories were confiscated.
The reasons given by the noble council were all kinds of strange. There was even a viscount who was deprived of his noble status by the noble council because he committed suicide on the territory of a cattle and violated the kingdom's laws.
You know, even in the Lampari Kingdom, which attached great importance to cattle because of the difficulty of arable land, it was only a trivial matter for a nobleman to kill a cattle on his territory.
Although this did violate the laws of the kingdom, how could the noble council allow the nobles who should have privileges to be punished by the law?
What's more, farmland magic machinery has long been popularized in the current Lampari Kingdom. Farm cattle are only used in very few places, and they have long lost their important status as before.
Even various dishes made of beef have long been majestically placed on the menus of restaurants in the Lampari Kingdom.
In such a situation, would a nobleman be deprived of his noble status for killing a farm ox, and put in prison for violating the laws of the kingdom, and accept the severe punishment of the laws of the kingdom?
This is simply a joke!
However, this is the fact that is happening in the Kingdom of Lampari now.
In addition to many small nobles who did not hold much real power, there were even two big nobles who held real power who were also punished.
These two great nobles not only own a large area of private territory, but they are also the city lords of a city, holding real power that cannot be underestimated.
However, the Kingdom Council of Lampari Kingdom and the Council of Nobles joined hands, and the two nobles were arrested without any resistance. Since then, there has been no news about them.
After knowing the news, Xu Yi was very grateful.
Fortunately, he had left the Kingdom of Lampari, otherwise, this time, he might become one of the nobles who were arrested.
Now he has become a lord in the Principality of Standing, but no one dares to arrest him indiscriminately.
At the same time, he felt a little strange.
Most of these nobles who had an accident had previously expressed their support for Sevigny's ascension to the throne. When Eric became king, Xu Yi thought that he would find an excuse to deal with these nobles who did not support him.
As the saying goes, one emperor and one courtier, this is not a strange thing.
However, Eric did not do this at the time, and the situation in the Lampari Kingdom was calm for nearly a year.
Xu Yi originally thought that this page would be opened just like that, but he didn't expect Eric to do it suddenly.
Even though the situation in the whole Kingdom of Lampari was tense because of the bloody conflict in Bangta City some time ago, many people who previously supported Her Royal Highness Sevigny and opposed Eric's ascension to the throne took the opportunity to question King Eric And voices of opposition, but Eric chose to do it at this time, don't you think it is too conspicuous?
If you do this, you will of course take the opportunity to clean up a group of nobles who oppose you, but isn't King Eric worried that this will arouse the anger of a large number of nobles in the Kingdom of Lampari, and cause even greater riots instead?
The other nobles, Xu Yi, didn't know much about it, but at least he knew that Baron Haines was extremely dissatisfied with this situation.
Both the "Anweimar Daily" and "Lampari Weekly" have made very direct attacks on what is happening in the Kingdom of Lampari.
Although he didn't say by name that King Eric did something wrong, the meaning was undoubtedly revealed between the lines.
Although the editor-in-chief of "Anvimar Daily" and "Lampari Weekly" has always been Baron Haines, they represent the positions of a large number of nobles behind him.
Now that these two newspapers have issued such sharp and sharp articles, it is enough to prove that the big nobles who also have considerable power standing behind Baron Haines are extremely dissatisfied.
However, what really caused a sensation in the entire Lampari Kingdom, or to be precise, what shocked all the nobles in the Lampari Kingdom was not the articles in these two newspapers, but a piece of news.
Duke Stark's son, Leslie Stark, who has the right to inherit the Stark family, was expelled from the Stark family by Duke Stark!
