Chapter 142: Sealing
When Locke returned to the hotel again, he was holding a bunch of gift boxes in his arms, and Bart and Sville behind him also helped to hold a few pieces.
They saw Viscount Melson's intimacy with Locke. Although they didn't know how Locke met the big figure of Viscount Melson, they could not stop their admiration for Locke.
"I think I should call you brother." Bart said, a few months older than Locke by age.
Viscount Melson was very generous. The necklace he brought to Locke was also a high-quality product compared to the one in the Kristen space ring. The estimated value of each item was no less than 50 Jindler. Fortunately, the fat man was able to give out ten items in one breath without changing his face.
He divided Bart and Sville, leaving four for Grace and Xia Xi and other women. Of course, he still didn't forget Angelina's one, and the remaining three were for his mother and sister.
Old Locke and Tia have taken their daughters to visit Flor City these days. Locke gave them a lot of Silver Derrells. Old Locke is not a person who loves to spend money, and Tia is used to being thrifty in the family. Until now, there are not many Silver Derrells in their pockets.
They bought many affordable and delicious gadgets and brought them back to the hotel soldiers and servants, making them popular.
In the eyes of this group of people, Old Locke and Tia are synonymous with good people.
Seeing that his son bought the precious jewelry necklace, Tia originally wanted to scold Locke for not being frugal, but the moment he saw the beautiful jade, Tia swallowed the words he was about to give.
Women all love beauty, even when they are older, this is their nature.
When did Tia ever see such a precious and gorgeous necklace? Before that, the silver ring that Rock bought for her when she first entered the city was the most precious one.
As for Lao Locke, when he married her, he only held two sheep and a bronze ring as a betrothal gift.
The copper ring Tia is still wearing it on her hands. It turns out that the yellow copper ring has turned red now, and the complex patterns on it have been worn out. However, Tia will always wear the copper ring, which is a testimony to the lifelong emotions of their old couple.
Old Locke was holding the new cigarette rod that Locke bought for her and smashing her mouth. His son was promising and he was also proud of being a father.
"I'll wear it for you!" Old Locke put down his cigarette pole and ran over to wear a necklace for Tia. "I think this jade necklace is suitable for you." He said that, and took a green string.
Tia raised her head and squinted her eyes, and sat quietly on the chair waiting for Old Locke to work there.
Locke really wanted to wear it for her sister, but unfortunately Leah had already done it herself and didn't give Locke any chance.
Leah chose a water-blue gem necklace. Against her white skin, the gem beauty is even more beautiful.
"How is it?" Lea asked Locke standing in front of her for the first time with such expensive jewelry for the first time.
"Hmm, pretty!" Locke spoke a little unscrupulously. To this day, despite meeting Angelina, Grace and other stunning beauty, he still thinks that his sister is the most beautiful one.
There was also a golden necklace in the gift box, "Give it the rest to Leah." Tia said, "In the Rock family, his mother Tia is the head of the family."
Three days later, the cemetery ceremony began, and Locke wore the dress early in the morning. This was a casual dress for knights. The right side of the dress was equipped with a cross sword scabbard, and the boots were black cowhide boots. Not only was it durable, but it did not look abrupt.
Wearing a slanted bangs, Locke looks like a noble knight rather than a soldier.
This is the outfit that Grace helped to choose. As soon as Locke appeared, she surprised everyone else in the hotel.
"The dress is very handsome, where did you buy it?" Bart asked curiously.
There were already servants from the palace waiting outside the hotel. The announcement that Locke was awarded the title of a noble knight was also the news conveyed by these people.
Following the palace servants, Locke carefully walked into the palace of Flor City with a group of people who looked like rioters in the army.
They are all ordinary civilians who are about to be awarded the title. Because they have made outstanding contributions on the battlefield, they will be promoted to nobles at this ceremony.
Through chatting, Locke learned that most of these people were promoted to noble knights, and only a few were awarded the title of lord, and all of them made decisive achievements in a certain battle.
Lock knew how much he had. If it weren't for the chance to save Princess Angelina and grant him the title of a noble, he wouldn't have been his turn, so he tried his best to make friends with his colleagues around him who were about to become noble knights.
There were 20 to 30 officers present. As new nobles, they had weak foundations and needed to make friends and establish relationships. Because they were from both military camps, they were very generous and had a group of people having a happy conversation.
"Quiet!" The voice may be getting louder and louder, and the man who was walking in front of the palace servant looked like a leader said softly.
The sound disappeared instantly, and everyone lowered their heads like quails, including Locke. They had not yet been awarded the title of Knight, so they still had to bow their heads.
Among them, the high-level attendant demonstrated by the head of the palace servant also played a great role, which made the group of quasi-noble knights tremble. The palace was really a crouching tiger and hidden dragon.
Locke and others who have made their way into the army don’t accept other people, but only those who are better than themselves.
"Our palace is much more spectacular than that of Charlottes." The bearded non-commissioned officer in the team whispered with his head on his back.
"How did you see it?" someone next to him also asked in a low voice.
"When I first attacked the side gate of King Charo's Palace, I was led by me. Although their palace walls were grand, they were not as tall as ours." The officer said.
When Locke was in Audis City, he was a local aristocratic private army and did not participate in the battle of the palace. When this person first introduced him, Locke pricked up his ears to listen to the latest news.
The court servants who led the team ignored the whispers of the people behind them. As long as they didn't speak too loudly, they wouldn't care. After all, they were just slaves, not nobles.
The palace hall of Forstein is a little more spectacular than that of Charlotte, but the number of palaces is smaller and not as gorgeous as of Charlotte. This is what Locke just heard.
After walking for half an hour, the group waited outside a main hall.
Not long after dawn, there were only a team of patrolling guards outside the palace, and maids and attendants in the palace were rarely seen in this area.
As time goes by, popularity gradually becomes more and more popular outside the hall, and nobles walk into the hall with their heads raised their heads and chests raised.
Locke, who stood like a wooden stake for half a morning, glanced around with his hidden eyes, but no one knew him.
About one hundred and forty nobles entered the hall, and Locke estimated it.
The waiting is long and difficult. Fortunately, everyone here is an officer. Locke also found that almost everyone is a strong man with a low-level servant or above, so this little fatigue is nothing. Even if you stand for a day, they may not frown.
In the main hall, His Majesty King Forstan sat on the throne with the help of his attendant. Sitting on both sides were Princess Kent and Prince Kensel, who had just returned from the front line.
Three of the four marquises of the kingdom stood in the front position of the nobles below, and only the newly appointed Marquis of Wood was still in charge of Charlotte at this time.
Below are hundreds of Forstan nobles standing, all of whom have gained something from today's ceremony of title.
Baron Kaidozi is also on the list, but his location is relatively remote, in the southwest corner of the hall.
If you look closely, you will find that the positions of these nobles are also very knowledgeable. If you draw a line, you will feel that you are clearly distinguished.
In front of Baron Cadozi is the location of Marquis Sandru. The other nobles are almost the same and have their own backers.
There were many nobles standing on both sides of the hall, who were loyal followers of Princess Kent and Prince Kensel. Most of the nobles who supported Princess Kent were in business and economic fields. Most of the nobles who supported Prince Kensel were nobles who served in the army, most of whom were young.
"So today, let's discuss the matter of the ceasing of those who have made meritorious post-war!" King Fostertan did not look old at all, his words were clear and his voice was deafening.
It is said that it is a discussion, but in fact, what should be discussed has been completed. Whether it is the noble council or the royal elders' house, they can all share the spoils that they are satisfied with. Of course, there is also some dirty things in it, so the parties involved need to adjust slowly.
Every nobleman came forward to listen to the order of the king's transfer, either his title was raised by a certain level, or a large territory, or his wealth of gold, silver and treasures. The vast land and resources of Charlotte fattened countless nobles of Fostertan.
