If the boy who came from the same family as the city lord had not revealed the whole matter in a vigorous and resolute manner.
Maybe this case is really what Jack thought, and he will completely suppress it when the city lord reaches the stage.
And this matter will be known to everyone, and the reason is that the city lord was promoted too quickly and showed too much sharpness.
As a non-heir to the family title.
They are usually sent to the corners of various towns or territories by the elders of the family, allowing them to expand their own territories.
The Lord of York was one of them.
His mother was a not-so-high-status lover of an aristocratic lord.
As a son who exists like an illegitimate son, of course, after he reaches adulthood, he will not be sent to any good place or get any good job.
When the city lord came to York, oh, this town could only be called York Town at that time.
It was the city lord who tried every means to make the city slowly expand and grow, and finally became a city-state.
It is precisely because of this outstanding ability and his too ostentatious reputation that the host's family is attracted to him.
After the other party actually got in touch with many heads of noble families and developed inexplicable deep friendships.
The real head of the York City Lord, that is, his direct eldest brother, felt that he could no longer be allowed to go on like this.
So over the years, he has been sending his men to the city of York to collect information about the city lord's brother.
However, there were still some difficulties in collecting the information because we did not understand the secrets.
His good brother not only expanded the entire city nearly ten times, but I heard that he also tried to return to the capital city and get an important job in the national cabinet.
Would his elder brother let such a thing happen?
The strong sense of crisis made the eldest brother focus on this illegitimate child. He really didn't expect that this illegitimate child could return to the master's sight in various ways.
And it was so fast that other nobles began to pay attention.
Everyone is talking about the illegitimate son's abilities and his legendary rate of appreciation.
Why didn't such a good seedling stay in the capital city?
Even if it is to help the family run the business, it will be more useful than leaving it outside?
So I turned my attention to the original choices of this aristocratic family. Now the head of the family seems very mediocre and incompetent to outsiders.
"Oh, let me just say, that old gentleman may have made a very bad choice."
"I've never seen a family that treats illegitimate children and side branches so harshly."
"I can't help it. I heard that his first wife was also from a noble family. She can allow her husband to have several lovers, but the children born from the lovers will not be allowed to appear in the main family."
"When the Lord of York was an illegitimate son, he never even entered the building of the Lord's house. He was just a child who did not grow up under his father's eyes.
If it were you, how would you know whether his ability is high or low?
It can only be said that this city lord is really lucky. He has appeared in front of everyone through his own efforts, and his achievements cannot be ignored by anyone. It is he who has achieved himself."
The eldest brother of the Lord of York City has heard so many words like this that even the people around him, those whose family is attached to him, have begun to have some doubts and criticize.
This is definitely not a good phenomenon. A family only needs to hear one voice.
If he cannot be his helper, then there is no need for him to exist.
Therefore, the eldest brother first sent his subordinates to have private contact with the illegitimate son who was far away in York City.
It was only at this time that the city lord of York had grown to a certain extent, and he had inseparable and close ties with the families of several great nobles with special habits.
At this time, he was no longer afraid of his eldest brother, that is, the power of his own family.
The Lord of York City believed that his current achievements had nothing to do with his family. The other party did not give him any help, and might even be a hindrance to him.
So he very simply rejected the olive branch offered by the other party.
Not only that, he also asked his eldest brother's cronies to bring a message to the master's family.
"It's better for us to keep our relationship intact. Of course, if there is a problem in the family, you can ask him to find me. Since we still have some blood connection, maybe I will help.
Just my eldest brother."
"Of course, at that time more people may know that this family cannot be supported by orthodoxy alone, don't you think so?"
The Lord of York vented all his displeasure at being ignored and treated with indifference for many years.
In his opinion, this was a sign that he did not want to have too much contact with his former home.
But when his eldest brother's relatives brought the words back to the capital, the eldest brother who heard these words thought it was a provocation against him by his half-brother, and a silent declaration of war.
The eldest brother of the Lord of York City was furious.
As others have seen, he is a political marriage between two great nobles.
His mediocre performance is just to maintain stability, and this empire does not need an overly powerful noble.
Their family is already very prosperous, and in a little while they will be feared by the king.
He believed that the Lord of York's provocation to him was probably a test that he would not do anything.
The king above was even willing to see their brothers kill each other.
A great nobleman with internal instability is a truly good nobleman.
Such brothers are restless about the existence of their family.
If the other party just stays in York City, then no matter what he does, it will be insignificant.
But if he tries to return to the mainstream nobles and take up the position given to him by the king, it is still a position of real power... then he will inevitably affect the status of the entire family in the empire and various industries related to the family.
Such brothers are unworthy.
He can be disrespectful to the family head, and he can jump up and down outside, but he must never touch the family's core interests and the family's aristocratic status in the empire.
"Find a way to get him down. This man can't be kept here."
"Find out why he has a relationship with these big nobles, and the relationship seems to be very close."
