In the bedroom of the mansion, Miss Gweir had just gotten up. A maid was helping her take care of her hair, and another maid was helping her arrange her clothes.
Today, she was wearing an aristocratic dress with blue and black main colors. There was a dark gauze between the sleeves and skirt, covering the fair skin underneath, making it hazy and beautiful.
The door opened gently, and a slightly younger maid walked into the room. She had blond hair, tied back in a fluffy shape, and part of it was hidden in a white maid hat.
"Good morning, Miss."
"Good morning, Iena."
As she said that, the younger maid walked to Gweir's side and stood quietly.
After Lorraine Hill joined this viscounty, Iena was also brought in by her, and now she is Gweir's personal maid, which can also be said to be Gweir's half deputy.
In the imperial court, the personal maid of aristocratic women has a special position. It is not like the maids used by ordinary families to do chores, or the servants who serve people completely. In many cases, this position is reserved by the big nobles to the small nobles.
My daughter came to serve.
These daughters of minor nobles have been educated since childhood. They can help the mistress handle some paperwork or convey some wishes and ideas. They are the right-hand man of the noble women.
Because they stay by their side all year round, they are trusted by the women of the great nobility, and sometimes help them take care of certain properties, etc. As a result, their power and status are far superior to other servants, second only to housekeepers.
Now Yiena plays such a role. She will always stay by the eldest lady's side and help her handle simple affairs. Of course, there is also an element of monitoring Gweir. After all, Lorraine Hill does not
May completely believe Gu Wei Er.
Compared with complete and indulgent trust, this has a certain degree of control, which can actually allow both parties to cooperate better.
However, what surprised Lorraine Hill was that Miss Gweir did not object to such behavior. She even knew the reasons for it very well and would tell Iena beside her about every detail.
"Mr. Anonymous, are you up? Can we have breakfast together today?" After finishing combing, Gweir asked Iena beside him.
The nameless knight lives on the other side of the same building, but the rooms of the two are at opposite ends of the corridor, far apart. On weekdays, the nameless knight eats and drinks in his room and will not be with everyone else.
Eating and occasionally cleaning the room are also done by Iena, and no one else is allowed to enter that room.
"Master Wuming is already up, and he should be directing the reconstruction work with Mr. Guwars right now." Iena explained as she recalled the scene where she saw Lorraine Hill as early as possible.
"It's a pity that I can't have lunch with Miss Gweir." Iena leaned down to apologize on behalf of the unknown knight.
In the public announcement, Iena was also the girl saved by the unknown knight on the roadside. Now she is homeless and has no choice but to join here.
Slightly pursed her lips, Gweir lowered his head in disappointment.
"That's it"
In the past few days of getting along, Iena could see that Gu Weier had an extraordinary fondness for this unknown knight, and even had a kind of blind worship.
Iena was very puzzled by this, and once she even asked Geweir in private.
"Don't you resent Master Wuming? After all, it was him who saved your father-killing enemy."
Gweir was sitting under the candlelight, looking out the quiet window, and answered slowly.
"Although this is the case, it was not the father he killed."
"Besides, how can everyone be so sure that I must have a good relationship with my father?" As she said this, the noble girl turned around, her eyes looking like a void of stars.
"I am bleeding with his disgusting blood, and I have to be grateful that he gave me life, but feelings are not such a simple thing."
The noble girl did not want to say more about what happened after that.
These days, Lorraine Hill also asked the residents in the city about the past of the former Viscount Wenlani, and finally learned some things about the past.
The Wenlani family first originated in the central part of the empire. It is not a famous family, and its ancestors do not have any outstanding military achievements. So how did they obtain a large area of land?
You must know that the origins of many nobles in the Southern Territory can be traced back to their ancestors, most of which originated from the officers and generals who made military exploits during the empire's southern expedition.
Although the Viscount is not considered a great noble, he is still a middle-level noble with a certain status, and he can pass down family letters.
This has to mention the several lucky moves of his ancestors. Perhaps the family's bloodline is really good. In that generation, Wenlani's ancestor had an extremely beautiful sister. In order to build a relationship, he asked his sister to
Became the lover of a certain general.
As a result, I relied on nepotism to take up a position in the army, and gained a lot of military honors. In this way, I actually got the title of baron. But if it was any higher, it would not be possible. After all, the Green Empire was at its peak at that time.
, the system is strict, and when you reach the viscount level, you have to report to the emperor for strict review.
Later, with their status as baron, the Wenlani family began to establish a manor here and initially built a castle belonging to their own family.
After two generations passed in this way, they slowly integrated into the local aristocratic circle. Since after being granted the title, their bloodiness gradually faded away, and the aristocrats in the surrounding circle were no longer as brave as their ancestors, and naturally they were not as brave as they used to be.
Exclude 'waste' families like Wenlani.
Because everyone is equally useless.
The comfortable life is so comfortable that people don't want to take any risks and get stained with blood.
After the peaceful era, this generation of Baron Wenlani happened to be extraordinarily handsome, and finally made a certain eldest lady happy, and that eldest lady was the daughter of the Red Dragon Duke at that time.
As the Grand Duke of the Southern Territory, the power and prestige of the Pascal family is unmatched by anyone, but even so, the Duke who dotes on his daughter does not allow this marriage.
After that, the old Duke arranged another marriage for his daughter. As a price to make his daughter feel at ease, he divided a small part of the territory, barely enough to get the status of Viscount, and promoted Baron Wenlani to Viscount.
In that era, the imperial aristocratic circle was no longer as glorious as it was in the early years, and it was Duke Pascal who was doing this kind of thing, so naturally no one dared to say anything.
As a result, the Wenlani family took advantage of this to reach the first level.
Since then, time has passed slowly, and several generations have passed, and now we have arrived at Gweir's father's generation.
This playboy also had a handsome appearance. He was surrounded by women and showed mercy, which fascinated many aristocratic women.
It's a pity that his luck is not as good as that of his ancestors, and no young lady from a well-known family is interested in him. As he gets older, he gradually gives up and starts to indulge himself and lead a life of debauchery.
"Mrs. Wenlani? I haven't heard of this person for a long time. She seems to have passed away a long time ago." The residents in the city said so.
"Miss Guerwer? In fact, I only learned this name today. We have never heard of the Viscount having such a beautiful daughter before."
"It's incredible that that lecherous and disgusting guy actually has such a beautiful daughter."
"It's hard to imagine, but looking at the faces, they are indeed somewhat similar. It's really unfair for the gods to give that scumbag such a handsome appearance."
"I don't know Miss Gweir. I came down from the mountain after hearing the order from Brother Guhuas. No matter how beautiful those noble ladies are, what's the use? It has nothing to do with me anyway. I only care about whether they will be the same in the future.
If you charge such a heavy tax, will you be able to have enough to eat?"
Under the call of Guhuas and a group of middle-level rebels, the residents who had fled before began to return to the city in twos and threes. They were surprised by the special changes in the city, and then quickly settled down.
Even leaders like Gu Huas are alive and well, so people like them will not be held accountable. The pent-up anger dissipated, and these people are eager for a stable and stable life again.
