Chapter 317

    Outside the castle, milt held the reins and sat on his horse, looking at Arthur and others on the city wall.


    He agreed to the other party''s proposal. The letter of allegiance flew to Fengxi castle with the wings of the letter bird yesterday. Bachelor Boye sent his fastest letter bird.


    It was only yesterday that he learned that the Duke''s children were all guests in Lingfeng castle. It is said that they came to help Shanghe lead the battle.


    More than six hundred people left with him.


    Among them, there are more than 30 Cambrian Knights willing to follow him, more than 100 soldiers of the first army, more than 30 officials, Bachelors and students drawn from Shanghe town to assist him in the implementation of reform, and hundreds of captured serfs.


    "Sir, the team is ready, and we can start at any time." a knight in armor rode forward to report.


    Milt nodded. Before giving the order to start, he suddenly turned over and dismounted and bowed to Arthur standing on the wall.


    On the wall, Arthur waved to him with a warm smile.


    Turning on his horse, milt ordered in a deep voice, "let''s go!"


    "Yes," shouted the knight beside him, "let''s go!"


    Gently kicked the horse''s belly, more than 30 Knights drove their horses to open the way, and the team of hundreds of people moved forward slowly.


    Milt looked back again and saw the gray Castle standing in the morning light, sacred and solid, and the red flag flying high on the spire seemed to roll with golden light.


    You will! He looked back at the vast land ahead, and I would certainly become the Lord of Cumbria - the greatest count Lord!


    ……


    On the wall.


    Arthur calmed down as he looked at the fading team. Whether out of faith or forced helplessness, milt''s reform is imminent and has to be carried out.


    According to his suggestion, the reform of Cumbria collar is mainly divided into three parts.


    First, abolish farms, liberate serfs and implement land reform.


    The second is to change the loose enfeoffment system in the original territory into the Lord centralization system.


    Third, carry out comprehensive cooperation with Shanghe collar.


    Today''s Cumbria collar is less difficult to reform than the original river collar. After making up his mind, milt did not contact the vassals at all and threw them directly into the dungeon. Without the obstruction of vassal, it can be said that only one order is needed to abolish the farm.


    Of course, once the news of Cumbria reform comes out, campesiburg is bound to become the target of all Kingdom nobles like Lingfeng castle.


    But what does it matter.


    If Duke kewilt wants to make a profit, he must temporarily endure milt''s "mischief" and appease those angry vassals. Arthur took the opportunity to support a solid ally.


    More importantly, the reform led by Cumbria will make the already undercurrent surging Kingdom situation more chaotic, and there will be vigilance and doubt between the Lord and the vassal.


    When the team left, Eugenie turned her head to Arthur and said seriously, "you have done a bad thing. Reform will harm the whole Cambrian leader!"


    Taking back his distant vision, Arthur said with a smile: "how could it be that all the people led by Cumbria, except the vassals in the dungeon, would benefit from this reform. If not, once milt returns to the castle, he will die in the rebellion of the vassals and the attack of the Barrett family in a short time. Miss Eugenie, this is your good advice to me!"


    The tone of Arthur''s praise annoyed Eugenie: "I don''t know what you will do. Milt''s guy is really a fool! He would only be the enemy of the Barrett family, and now all the nobles would like to kill him!"


    "Well, well," said Arthur with a smile, "it''s so simple. He doesn''t take any risks. How can he be a lord? Don''t worry, there''s the Duke. As long as milt is loyal, I''m sure the Duke will appease the vassals."


    With that, Arthur didn''t wait for her to make a sound and looked sideways at pace on the other side.


    "Pace, I have arranged all the people sent to Fengxi city. The Duke also wrote to urge him yesterday. He is very worried about Miss Eugenie''s safety and hopes you can return to the castle as soon as possible."


    Taking back his hands on the crenel, pace looked at him sideways and asked with a slightly serious look: "Sir, do you think milt will succeed?"


    "Of course, otherwise, why should I do all this? The guy didn''t give me any benefit." after that, Arthur smiled, raised his hand and patted him on the arm. He said reluctantly, "what, when are you going to leave? I''ll send a knight to escort you out of the river."


    Hearing the speech, pace frowned slightly, turned his head to look at the distance again, and said in a low tone: "Lord Arthur, it may be difficult for us to see each other again this time."


    "Well, I know." Arthur stood side by side with him, looking at the distant team. After a half silence, he asked, "are you worried about marriage?"


    Pace did not answer, but opened his mouth and said, "Sir, I heard that you allowed free marriage in the code compiled by your bachelor."


    "Well, there''s one. But pace, the more responsibilities people take, the harder it is to be free."


    Arthur didn''t ask if he had a girl he liked.


    "Responsibility..." pace whispered.


    After another silence, he slowly said, "I''m worried that I can''t do well. I''ve always made a mess of my responsibilities. I''ve never done well when I was a child, when I became the king''s front guard, or when I became a mercenary, which has implicated those who trust me..."


    "Hey, pace, are you showing off?" Arthur said discontentedly. "You want to tell me that although you''ve been so fucking, the people around you still trust you and are willing to give up their lives and die with you, right?"


    "No, my Lord, I mean..."


    "You mean to let me be careful, because we are friends now, and I trust you. I don''t know when I will die?"


    "My Lord, I..."


    "You haven''t messed up anything!" Arthur interrupted him again. "Those partners who lost their lives for you are convinced that you haven''t forgotten your responsibility, so they will stand with you without hesitation!"


    Pace was silent, with a trace of shame in his complicated expression.


    Looking at him, Arthur then said, "if you feel confused, recognize your identity. If your position can''t bring you mission like responsibility, ask your heart. We have to do something. Fortunately, before we die, say, ''fuck you, it''s not the same!''.".


    Listening to the conversation between the two, Eugenie looked at the Tunguska mountains in the distance, pursed her mouth and quietly showed a proud smile.


    "Thank you, I''ll find it!" pace said firmly, looking at Arthur.


    ……


    The next morning, Arthur saw off pace and his party outside the castle gate.
