"The eldest brother asked me to come back...to attend the funeral of the second brother?" Linton tried to ask.
"This..." Tyrwin obviously hesitated a little.
"What's the matter? Lord Tyrwyn?" Linton asked.
"To be honest, I don't know very well, but Lord Landner's affairs have not been made public yet," Tierwin said. "The possibility of holding a funeral is relatively small."
This is not strange for Linton. After all, his second brother is the second son in the family, and he has the same status as himself. It's just that his second brother doesn't have the aura of waste, and his salary is much higher than his own. After thinking about it, Linton
Dun asked: "So Lord Tyrwin knows what happened?"
"I think it might be a wedding," Tierwin said.
Linton felt a headache when he heard this, and quickly asked: "Whose wedding is it?"
"It is said... that the Meloway family is going to marry the Temlin family..." Tierwin said, "When I went to visit the Baron at his residence, I also met people from the Temlin family."
"Temlin family?" Linton was stunned for a moment because he had never heard of the name of this family. After all, he didn't even know much about his own family.
"The nobles in the southwest, a very powerful family." Tierwenneng gave a brief introduction.
"Uh...then is there any particularly famous ugly woman or widow in their family?" Linton asked.
"This... I haven't heard of it, but I heard that the young lady of the Temlin family is the most beautiful woman in the entire Rosand region. Maybe this time we will arrange her marriage," Tilwen said.
"Beauty..." Linton spread his hands, this had nothing to do with him, how could he possibly arrange some beauty for him.
"I think it's possible that the Baron wants to marry this beauty." Tierwin expressed his guess.
"Oh?" Linton thought this was possible. He seemed to have heard that his eldest brother's wife also died at the beginning of the year and is now single. This makes sense. The marriage between the two families may be possible this time.
Allowing myself to attend this wedding? It always feels a bit strange.
Do you think that before his second brother died, he was not even notified? Tierwen had found out the news, so he was allowed to go back for this wedding? I always felt that it was not that simple. Linton felt that it was still possible to give him a real gift.
Arrange a marriage or something like that.
Of course, it was strange, but Linton still wanted to go back. Although he knew clearly that his identity as a member of the Meloway family was not his true identity, he still wanted to investigate clearly why he became this person, pointing out that
Maybe it has something to do with your true identity.
Just when Linton said he wanted to go back, Tyrwin here immediately made arrangements. After all, Linton had been missing for two days, which was also delayed for two days, so what Tyrwin meant was
He set off immediately today, otherwise he was afraid that the Baron would be angry.
Tierwin also specially lent his carriage to Linton. This may be the only carriage with people in the whole town. Although it is the mayor's carriage, it is still very simple. This town is really too...
Poor. By the way, Tyrwin assigned two escorts to Linton, that is, two people from the city guard. One of them was naturally Radnor, and the other Zag was also a young man in his twenties.
Of course, Eck also rushed back in time at this time. As expected, as Radnor guessed, this guy was just pretending to be sick. After hearing about Linton being retrieved, Eck "recovered from his illness" in an instant.
, hurried back in a hurry to help pack the luggage.
Of course, Linton and the others didn't actually have much luggage. The only clothes he said he could wear when going out were the ones he was wearing, and they were in such tatters, so it was a bit difficult to deal with. Fortunately, Tierwin probably saw Linton's difficulties, and
He also helped solve the clothing problem. Anyway, after a little tidying up, Linton and his party of four embarked on a journey to Digarno City.
According to Eck, the distance between the town and the city of Digarno is not very far. If you take a carriage, you can get there in more than a day. Along the way, Eck seemed very excited and kept talking to Linton.
Talking.
"Young Master, look at what I said, the Baron must have known about your awakening of fighting spirit, so he recruited you back," Ek said.
"Really? You think that's the case?" Linton said, "Awakening fighting spirit at the age of 19, what's there to brag about? Any knight apprentice in the Baron Mansion is probably better than me. Why did you ask me to go back?"
"That's different. Master, you are from the Meloway family." Ek said.
"So you think my eldest brother suddenly thought of family ties and took me back?" Linton looked at Eke with an expression that said, "You seem to be making me laugh." "Eke, it's not that big of a deal.
It's complicated. If I'm lucky, my eldest brother suddenly remembered me when he was about to get married, and casually asked me to go back to attend the wedding. If I'm not lucky, he might have arranged something for me when he went back.
, it’s probably a marriage, and of course the marriage partner… is definitely not someone worth celebrating.”
"Marriage...?" Ekko paused for a moment. Linton could also understand the question. Of course Ekko could also understand that raising Linton was just for this purpose. Indeed, it seemed that Linton was still
It's more likely than not.
"Maybe it's some kind of bridal marriage." Linton said, "When the time comes, be careful that your new mistress will sell you off..."
"This..." Eck was naturally worried. If Linton really got married, he would become a servant of another family, so it seemed normal to sell him. Eck also knew that he was old.
It's of no great use. What Linton said is really possible.
"Master, aren't you worried?" Ek suddenly noticed that Linton didn't look worried.
"I'm worried, aren't we trying to figure it out?" Linton said, "You can also help me think about it. Although this matter has not been decided yet, we should think about it first to prepare for a rainy day."
"This..." Ek thought for a while, "Master, how about we go to Baron Serdes and ask... Do you remember? You and the Serdes family had a relationship a long time ago.
engagement……"
"Is there one? The kind that involves marriage?" Linton asked.
"Well, the master made an agreement with Baron Thredes at that time."
"What happens after that? My engagement is broken off?" Linton asked.
"No, Baron Thredes's daughter died early, so this matter was never mentioned again," Ek said.
"Oh..." Linton thought it was about breaking off the engagement. Unfortunately, he seemed to say that famous line. It felt like one of the four lines that a time traveler must say. He said he really wanted to try it.
, "So why are we looking for him?"
"Although the daughter you were engaged to has passed away, the follow-up to the engagement has not been mentioned yet. Theoretically, another person from the Seders family should marry you." Ek said, "You go find Baron Seders now.
If so, maybe we can negotiate this matter, so that you don't have to marry anyone else."
"Baron Thredes has not mentioned this matter for so many years, and he probably doesn't want to admit it." Linton said, "After all, I was not a loser when we proposed the marriage, but I am now."
"...Um... Young Master, why don't you give it a try? It's not too far from here to Baron Serdes's territory..." Ek said, "Besides, haven't you already awakened your fighting spirit?"
"Who told you that I had awakened my fighting spirit?" Linton said with a smile.
"Huh? But didn't you defeat Qirao?" Ekko was stunned.
"Can Qilao be vindictive?" Linton asked back.
"No...so...young master, you don't know how to be angry?" Ekko was stunned.
"Yes." Linton nodded, that was indeed not the case.
"This...this..." Eck panicked all of a sudden. If Linton didn't know how to fight, everything he said before would be useless. There was no way Baron Thredes would accept a loser who didn't know how to fight as his son-in-law.
.In other words...there is no way.
While Eck was panicking, the carriage suddenly stopped. Linton was stunned for a moment, opened the curtain and asked Radnor and Zag who were driving in front, "What's wrong?"
"Master, there seems to be a situation ahead." Radnor pointed to the front and said.
Linton looked ahead intently, and sure enough, something happened. What appeared in front of them was an unmanned carriage, running towards them. The most important thing was that Linton saw that there seemed to be a lot of people on the carriage.
of blood.
It is easy to deduce what happened ahead. It is estimated that the owner of this carriage was attacked or something. The horse in the carriage was frightened and ran towards them. In other words, something happened in front, and it should be right there.
Not far away.
"Look at this carriage... the identity of the owner should be unusual." Ek next to him said.
Indeed, this carriage is much more beautiful than theirs. At first glance, it looks like a carriage belonging to a wealthy person or aristocrat. It must be made by someone with status.
"Let's take a detour quickly." Ek said immediately, "The people who can ride in such a carriage are probably not ordinary people. There must be a lot of guards. If they can solve it, they will definitely solve it themselves. If they can't solve it, it will be a big trouble.
We can't help either."
"Hey, what you said is so heartless." Linton smiled and said, "Do you know the motto of our Mellow family?"
"No, Master, now is not the time to make this up." Eck saw Linton's interest and said quickly.
"Being kind to others means that if we can help, we must help. After all, it's not easy to be away from home, right?" Linton ignored Eck and continued.
"No, Master, it's not that you don't want to help, we really can't help."
"Come on, Radnor, speed up and check out the situation." Linton waved his hand and said directly.
