Chapter 169 Valads Compensation

There were two pieces of letter paper in the envelope. When Narant took out the first piece and looked at it for a moment, he was surprised.

The content of this letter is exactly about the results of Sir Wallad's treatment.

His father, Andrew, said that because Varad had a noble status, although he could beat Varad violently, he could not really punish him for Narant.

Instead, he handed over the relevant evidence to Count Tulip, and finally Count Tulip handed Valad directly to the Noble Council of Tulip City for processing.

During the trial of the Parliament of Nobles, although there were witnesses from several Quint guards, Sir Valad did not plead guilty and denied his involvement in this matter.

He has always claimed that he did not know Quint and that he was deceived by his subordinates.

Although he sent the caravan, he had always left the management of the caravan to his own manor steward.

The butler of the manor committed suicide in fear of guilt in Valad's manor during the parliamentary trial.

In this way, although this matter does involve Sir Valad, there is no evidence to prove that the Quint guards were in direct contact with Valad.

Finally, the noble council asked his father Andrew for his opinion and whether he was willing to reach a settlement.

If you are willing to reach a settlement, discuss compensation with Valad.

If you don't want to, then you need to collect more evidence. Even if it can be proven that Valad and Quint are really closely connected, then he can be convicted of assisting outsiders in murdering nobles.

When the time comes, he may be deprived of his title or, at worst, be sent to the gallows.

Because of the long journey, Andrew was unable to consult Narant's opinion, so in the end he felt that it was most appropriate to get the benefits.

Because Andrew got the news from his friends, it is indeed possible that Sir Valader did not know Quint, because Valader's caravan basically wandered around the territory near Tulip City in the past and would not leave the earl territory.

Therefore, in the end, Andrew and Valad personally negotiated compensation matters, and obtained a shop worth more than sixty gold coins from Valad.

"Master Nalant, Lord Andrew feels that Sir Valad may really not know Quint, and the reason why he did this may be because someone else was instigating him behind the scenes."

"It is said that Sir Valad was close to Viscount Alding in the city, so he was able to quickly establish a foothold in the Tulip City after his bankruptcy!"

Seeing Nalant read the first letter, Crowe immediately opened his mouth to explain.

"Yeah!" Nalant nodded. This was similar to his original guess. Aldin must have been involved, so it wasn't a surprise.

Although he failed to knock Navard to death this time, it was not bad to get sixty gold coins as compensation, which could be used as money to buy his life.

Then Nalant continued to look down, and below was Andrew's opinion on the invasion of Quint.

Andrew said that Earl Tulip has not received any complaints from Earl Black Iron so far, so he doesn’t have to worry too much in this regard.

This Valad incident can actually be regarded as infringing on the interests of the Tulip family. The Tulip family will send a messenger to find the Black Iron Earl to ask for an explanation.

Nalant was just forced to lure the dark creatures over, and they finally eliminated the dark creatures and rescued Quint himself. It would not be impossible for the guilt of both parties to be directly offset by then.

As for the 'reward' that Nalant received, it is likely that he will have to return it to a certain extent depending on the situation, such as the territory and the trebuchet.

The elves are a drop in the bucket to the earl family, but the territory and trebuchets are related to the face of an earl family.

Andrew taught Nalant that if he was asked to return some of the loot, remember not to feel bad. After all, even if you get an elf, you have made money.

Don't worry about it on the surface. What Andrew is really worried about is whether the Black Iron Earl will secretly send people to attack him, so the letter tells Nalant to send more subordinates to patrol the border.

If danger does occur, you must flee the castle with your men as soon as possible, because the power of an earl family is very terrifying.

"If you want me to spit out what I've eaten, Quint has a big dream!" Nalant muttered as he smashed his mouth.

Naturally, Nalant was reluctant to spit out the benefits of eating it, and he still had something to use Quint to harm him.

After reading the first piece of letter paper, Narant looked towards the second piece of paper.

But the second message was a bit beyond Nalant's expectation. It was actually about Stella's birthday celebration.

Andrew said that he had received news that at this birthday celebration, the earl would focus on examining the performance of each second son in the competition.

The person with the best performance is likely to win the opportunity for the Earl to visit the territory during the harvest festival, and this visit will bring all the vassals with him.

Seeing this, Narante's heart skipped a beat.

The Harvest Festival is the most important festival in the Agate Principality, which is equivalent to the significance of the Spring Festival in the previous life of China.

This festival is basically held after the harvest in the second quarter of the second half of the year, that is, almost two months later. This is a day for everyone from nobles to serfs to celebrate.

In the past, the Earl would occasionally spend time in the vassal's territory at this time, as a favor.

But this year, among the several second sons chosen for the competition, it is obvious that Miss Stella has the idea of ​​​​allowing Miss Stella to have more contact with these second sons.

For Nalant, it doesn't matter whether he can contact Miss Stella or not. What matters is that the nobles from other territories will basically come by then, which can greatly change their views on the Storm Territory.

"Looks like I have to be well prepared this time!" Originally, Nalant thought that he didn't want to be the brightest boy in the whole show, as long as he didn't get compared to the other boys.

But now it was no longer possible. This opportunity to visit meant more to him than any other second son.

As for whether the performance can be excellent this time, although it is a request that has no answer on the surface, everyone knows that as long as it can satisfy Miss Stella, it will be regarded as an excellent performance.

Andrew's letter also explained the problem. During this time, the other second son's family had begun to actively prepare, secretly acquiring various treasures, and preparing to help their second son win the favor of Miss Stella at the banquet.

Although the Berwick family is not as wealthy as other families, Andrew will still sponsor Narant with ten gold coins.

He has already asked Crowe to bring these ten gold coins. Then Nalant can go to Tulip City to buy gifts by himself.

Or you can ask Crowe to take it back and ask his father to help find out if there is any gift that can please Miss Stella.

"Huh!" Nalant took a deep breath. This is truly a father's love. Even though he has become a lord, Andrew is still thinking about it.

He knew that ten gold coins were used to buy gifts for himself, which was a considerable expense for Andrew.

When Crowe saw him pick up the second piece of letter paper, there was already a small black purse and a kraft paper contract in his hand, which was probably gold coins and the contract to compensate the store.

"Master Nalant, here are the gold coins and the store contract that I asked you to bring to you!" Crowe also handed over the money bag and contract at this time.
