Chapter 152 Wu Bei Ling
Since Luo Ning last left Wushanbao, Lu Lans noticed changes in his eldest grandson and came up with the idea of marriage.
If Roning had been uneducated in the past, he would not have had these thoughts.
Since his grandson has made changes, he, as a grandfather, will try his best to give him some space.
After all, Lu Lans was still worried about Luo Ning. He was worried that his grandson would die first after he died.
Luo Ning understood that the other party was thinking about him. Although he was disgusted that others had changed his path, he had no reason to blame the other party.
"Okay, I've finished what I have to say."
Lu Lans smiled and said, "Now it's time to talk about your story."
Luo Ning came back to his senses. He had been thinking about the marriage but had forgotten the purpose of coming to find Lu Lans this time.
He thought about it momentarily, looked him in the eyes, and acted serious enough: "Grandpa, I want Sean to take that piece of land."
Just as the sudden mention of marriage surprised Roning, Roning's words also surprised Lu Lans. It was obvious that the other party had not expected this.
"Why do you suddenly have this idea?"
Lu Lansi frowned slightly, "Did Marvin ask you to say that?"
He knew that Roning came to Wushan Castle with Viscount Marvin's convoy. He also felt that Roning should not have any thoughts or ambitions to annex other noble territories for the time being, so he thought it was Marvin who proposed it; after all, the latter had that motive.
To the northwest of Horse Herder City is the Territory of Sen, and to the southeast, there is a small area bordering Orson's territory. Leisen is close to Barrington.
In the future, when Orson or Barrington wants to deal with the Horse Ranch City, it will be a good opportunity to form a pincer attack.
"Viscount Marvin has taken good care of me. I bought over 40 horses from him but only spent half the money."
Luo Ning shook his head and said, "But he didn't ask me to do this, Grandpa. This is my idea."
Lu Lans' eyes flashed with surprise. When did his grandson dare to propose annexing other people's territories?
"Your idea is very dangerous!"
He straightened up and said seriously, "Even if you have a conflict with Lei Sen in the Savage Tribe, it is not serious enough to encroach on his territory. Moreover, the kingdom's laws stipulate that unless a noble commits a serious crime, his title and territory cannot be deprived, so I can't help you with this matter."
He could help Ronin do many things, but he could never deprive a noble of his title and territory without any reason, as this would be against the noble class.
"Grandpa, what you just said means that as long as the nobles of Wushan Territory commit a serious crime, you can deprive him of his title and territory."
Luo Ning smiled and asked, "Am I right?"
"You mean?"
Lu Lans thought of a possibility, but he was somewhat unbelievable.
Lei Sen of Sean County is an old noble. What fatal evidence would he leave behind when facing a 17-year-old junior?
Lu Lans' tone was still as serious as before as if he was teaching Roning.
"If you accuse a noble of committing a serious crime without evidence, then you will also be guilty of a serious crime. The punishment may be a fine, imprisonment, or even the possibility of deprivation of your title and territory."
Luo Ning nodded, "I know. If there weren't enough evidence, I wouldn't have brought this up."
"What evidence? Confirm it for me first."
Luo Ning smiled mysteriously and said, "Please forgive me for keeping it secret. I want to show the evidence in front of many nobles."
Lu Lans was slightly shocked. Roning was planning to do something big!
This would be dangerous if there is insufficient evidence.
"If you don't want any accidents to happen, you'd better let me take a look."
Lu Lans was a little persistent. The Wushan family had finally found a good candidate, and he didn't want anything unexpected to happen to the other party.
Roning was confident in his evidence. After all, he had both physical and human evidence. Even the assassin was imprisoned in the Hillwood Castle. What could happen?
Given his character, once Wiggins knew Leisen was related to the Skeleton Society, he would kill Leisen. He would not even need to look for the Shadow Assassin; he would convict Leisen.
To prevent Lu Lansi from continuing to ask, he changed the subject and said, "I want to tell you in the second half of Grandpa's birthday party. Grandpa won't blame me for disrupting this happy event, right?"
Lu Lan Si naturally knew that Luo Ning was determined not to say anything, so he sighed and leaned back on the sofa again, "That doesn't matter. I've had birthday parties many times, and it's fun to be a little different."
He complained a little at this point, "But you are still hiding something from me."
It's also because Wushanbao hasn't managed Shanlin Town in recent years. The place seems isolated from the world, and no news can be transmitted.
Otherwise, he could have guessed a thing or two.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I never do anything without preparation."
Luo Ning continued: "If we capture Leisen, can you give me the Territory of Sean?"
Lu Lan Si is no longer bothered about the evidence. "If your evidence is enough to bring down Lei Sen, it should be regarded as a huge contribution to Wushan Castle. Not only can I give you the Sean Territory, I will also give you the northern part and make you the Viscount of Wubei Territory!"
After all, it is a loss for a baron to marry a princess.
According to Lulans's plan, he had intended to increase Roning's title and territory, but he couldn't find a suitable reason.
Since Roning is not the legal heir, giving rewards without reason will be criticized.
Hearing this, Luo Ning's eyes lit up.
He originally wanted a piece of land but didn't expect a surprise.
The title of Viscount is a good thing!
A high title is secondary. The key is that with the promotion of his rank, his monthly sign-in reward will be doubled, which is the most important thing.
"The area in the north is very large. Add in the area of Thane County, and I feel like I can be an earl."
Luo Ning said shamelessly, "Why don't you just make me an earl? It will be more prestigious."
There are only two earls in Wushan Territory, and Wiggins' earldom is temporary.
"Go! Go! Go!"
Lu Lan Si glared at him and scolded him with a smile: "Your father is only an earl, and you become an earl, so where is his face?"
"Father is very thick-skinned; he probably won't care." Luo Ning defended.
Rulans waved his hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "If you're fine, leave quickly. You can be promoted to Viscount without any military merit, but you need at least some military merit to be promoted to Earl."
Luo Ning sighed helplessly. He would not be able to get Earl's title.
But this is also understandable.
If he could obtain the Territory of Sen this time, be promoted to Viscount, and incorporate the entire North into his territory, Roning would be very satisfied.
Where would the Earl go to get military merits? Would he also go to destroy the Black Gold Brotherhood?
So, the purpose of this organization is to allow nobles to gain military merits.
Luo Ning stood and said, "Thank you for your care, Grandpa. I will go down now."
"Go ahead!"
After Roning left, Lu Lans sighed, "Most, why do you think Roning has changed so much in the past six months?"
"I heard that great fortune comes after great adversity. It may be the same principle. Master Luo Ning has experienced so many ups and downs in life that he has matured inwardly."
"Perhaps."
Lu Lansi couldn't help but think of his eldest son. "When Graham was seventeen or eighteen, his thinking was meticulous. The current Roning is similar to his uncle, but it's a pity that they are too far apart in strength."
Grimes, a permanent pain in his heart.
Moster comforted him, "Master, sometimes a wise ruler does not need to be too powerful to be followed by strong people. The same is true for Master Luo Ning. He already has followers who can defeat the Bronze Knight!"
"Ha, you are good at comforting people."
