529 Rich knighthood

β€œβ€¦ In the name of Venanon, I serve Aurora. Angstrom. The will of Queen Venern was granted to Sycamore. His Excellency Mu The Kingdom of Andel inherited the title of [Viscount], and gave [Six-Star Crown] a holy silver crown, a viscount holy silver scepter, a set of ferret [viscount] costumes, a [Purple Feather Dragon Eagle] mount, a Silver Eagle Medal of Andele, a dragon eagle banner, a territory of 1,500 square kilometers, 500 sets ......of [perfect] quality knight equipment, [exquisite] quality knight equipment 1,000 sets, [exquisite] quality cavalry equipment 10,000 sets, and a number of corresponding soldier equipment equipment, a number of materials, craftsmen and workers of various professions"

With a solemn face of Mishas. Angstrom. Her Royal Highness Princess Wiener, chanting the proverbs as if singing, she touched a ceremonial sword on the shoulders and the top of the head of the sycamore, who was half-kneeling in front of her, and turned the hilt of the sword upside down, holding it flat with her small hand, and chanted: "In the name of the royal family of Andele, I bestow it on the sycamore." Your Majesty, Viscount Mu, the right to exercise all rights in the realm that are in accordance with the laws of the kingdom, Adele bless you! ”

As he spoke, he placed the sword into the palm of the sycamore, with his head down but his arms raised upwards.

While slandering the tediousness of the knighthood ceremony and kneeling and bowing, and on the other hand, because of the generosity of the Adele royal family, Wutong took over the exquisite ceremonial sword full of elf style amid the congratulations of many nobles in the surrounding aristocratic viewing group.

As soon as the elven ritual sword, which is more decorative and symbolic than the practical surname, started, Wutong's palm involuntarily trembled slightly, and he almost immediately looked up to see the surname of the sword, but the knighthood ceremony was not yet completed, Her Royal Highness the princess held Wutong's cheeks with her small hands, imprinted a kiss on his forehead, and stretched out her white jade flawless little hand and handed it to Wutong.

Not only Wutong was stunned, but even the nobles who watched the ceremony were in an uproar, this is the princess's kiss blessing! Only the guardian knights who have been personally recognized by Her Royal Highness the princess are eligible for the honor, which is beyond the content of a viscount's knighthood ceremony!

Stupidly staring at the snow-white little hand stretched out in front of him for a long time, Wutong involuntarily looked up at Princess Mishas who leaned over slightly, the beautiful princess's beautiful eyes that were as green as a wave of blue pools, with a smile and playful Chong Wutong secretly blinked quickly, Wutong reacted and gently held the princess's little hand, and kissed her on the back of her hand as a kiss in return.

If you don't have in-depth knowledge of etiquette such as "Nobles" and "The Royal Family", you may not be able to see the meaning of this knighthood ceremony at all.

First of all, it should be noted that the title of [Viscount] belongs to the titles of high nobility, and the titles that are truly recognized as "royal nobles" are not titles that can be awarded to people other than the royal family and members of the noble family, like the first, second, and third class titles of [Baron], the lowest level of high nobles.

That Yolana [of the Cannes family]. Advance. Baroness Cannis, with the dignity of the head of the dragon family, controls a huge amount of property, and what she has obtained is only the title of [First Baron], which shows the gold content of the higher [viscount] title.

The same title has different gold content, with the prefix of the word "hereditary" and the prefix without the word "hereditary", the meaning is very different.

Non-hereditary nobility, usually only owned by the title owner himself, once the title owner himself died, the title will be withdrawn, but usually the royal family will not do so ruthlessly, but with the title reduction system to ease the reduction, that is, the title owner of the direct descendants inherit the lower level of the title, until the loss of the title, unless its heirs in the process of receiving the title, promoted, otherwise the final title will be taken back by the royal family.

The hereditary nobles can pass on their titles from generation to generation, and the title owner is [viscount], then their direct descendants will inherit the [viscount] title, as long as they continue to have grandchildren, or if they commit a crime and are cut off, they can always pass on the title, which is also the origin of the inheritance of those thousand-year-old families.

At the same time, whether the nobles have the territory, the size of the territory area, and the advantages and disadvantages of the territory position are also the key points in judging the gold content of the title.

For example, those spellcasters in the Venane Academy, they are usually fictitious nobles, not only can they receive a generous salary in the royal family, but they can also receive a "living allowance" in line with the rank in the mage club they join, otherwise, these mages who will not go out to work to support themselves are so strong that they will starve to death if they can do experiments.

Before Wutong, he should theoretically receive a fictitious title, but because of his status as the "Chief of the Nine Departments" and the identity of his teacher, Old Man Zemmour, the Adele royal family gave him a non-hereditary collar treatment.

And now, the hereditary viscount title obtained by Wutong shows that the Ander royal family values his potential and tries to pull it into the Ander royal system!

Usually when the [viscount] confers the knighthood, at most he can obtain a crown, a scepter, a costume, and nothing else, and he has to rely on his own purchase.

And Wutong not only obtained the highest rank of the [Viscount] title, but also obtained the [Purple Feather Dragon Eagle] mount, the Dragon Eagle Banner, the Silver Eagle Medal, a full set of subordinate equipment, equipment, and materials... This can be regarded as the treatment of a national soldier and a minister!

The so-called "ritual utensils" are just symbolic objects, and their materials are not important, but the crown cast with ordinary silver, and the crown cast with holy silver from the temple of Worgin, and inlaid with a large number of precious jewels, is the surname the same? The meaning lies in the royal family's favor and importance to the owner of the crown!

Under normal circumstances, according to the feudal system, as well as the richness and barrenness of the territory, the territory area of a [viscount] is about 300~450 square kilometers, but Wutong directly obtained a fief of 1500 square kilometers, although this has a certain relationship with the location of his territory, it is really a bird that does not lay eggs to the extreme, but the territory area of a [viscount] actually exceeds [earl] (500~1000 square kilometers), That's a bit too exaggerated!

It can be said that with this promotion, Wutong's territory directly covered the entire land from the [Northern Defense Line] to the foot of the [Star Mountain Range], and even included a small part of the land of [Gray Bone Plains], [Broken Whispering Forest], and [Wailing Wilderness].

From this point of view, the Adele royal family sent a big pie to Wutong again, equipped him with a large number of equipment, equipment, materials, and personnel, and also sent a dragon eagle brigade and a griffin brigade to be stationed, which was obviously intended to use him as a shield to block the main force of Cannas's attack before the Adele royal family recovered its strength.

When the royal family of Andel was most in danger, Sycamore destroyed the three major legions of the Grand Duke (the unfortunate legion town of the Zodiac), assisted the Duke of Griffon in defending the beast tide of the [Venanne Boundary River] (developing the city of Aoraon), hindered the Grand Duke from stabilizing the results of the coup d'Γ©tat (forming a privateering group), attracted, resisted, and pacified the coup army and stowaways (Battle of the Black City), and resisted the invasion of the undead legion of Kannas... and so on, to be able to enjoy such treatment, it is reasonable.

However, it is too much to directly grant the "autonomy authorization" of Wutong in the territory, because in addition to the dukes at the [county king] level, even earls and marquis cannot enjoy autonomy, and the nobles only have the "right to use" the fiefs granted by the royal family, but do not have the "right to own", and all actions in the territory still have to obey the laws formulated by the royal family.

Because having an "autonomy authorization" is equivalent to having the right to confer knighthoods at the county level, and you can grant low-level noble titles (knights, quasi-lords, lords, third-order eighteen-ranks) and low-level, intermediate, and high-level knights, in addition to quasi-barons (second-class barons), third-class barons, second-class barons, and first-class barons, these four titles he cannot grant to others, Wutong is equivalent to the soil emperor of this acre and three points of land!

The most hilarious thing is the [Dragon Eagle Banner], the royal family granted him this flag, which is equivalent to giving him the right to form a new banner, and it is the highest level of the royal army (the dragon eagle symbolizes the royal family).

If it is said that the generosity from the royal family almost knocked Wutong unconscious, then the blessed kiss from Her Royal Highness the princess and the fairy ritual sword presented by her Royal Highness are the things that make Wutong break out in a cold sweat.

The elven sword symbolizes the princess's choice of her guardian knight, and each princess will have a knight who will protect them, and when they find someone they approve of, they will give him this sword.

It's nothing to be a guardian knight for the princess, although Sycamore is a mage, but this ceremony is only symbolic of the surname, but the problem is that the princess's guardian knight is equivalent to her partner candidate, the husband of Her Majesty Queen Aurora, Sasik. Advance. Prince Vatalis, the guardian knight of Her Majesty when she was still a princess!

This is also the reason why Mao Wutong was shocked into a cold sweat, although the guardian knight does not necessarily become the princess's husband, but at least it is equivalent to becoming the princess's lover, lover or boyfriend, Wutong does not understand Mishasi. Angstrom. Her Royal Highness Princess Wiener suddenly chose him to be the guardian knight for Mao Hui, but he didn't have the courage not to accept it... It's going to be killed, right? Yes, right? Definitely, right?

Can you be a boyfriend for an NPC? Sycamore began to sweat vigorously!
