Chapter 493： Canonized Baron (Part 2)

It's no wonder that people are jealous, because territory is really hard to get.

Some of their families have been baronial titles for more than a hundred years, but the family territory has never increased.

Narant is so young, but he is flying straight into the sky like a flying horse, sitting directly on two baronies. Anyone who sees this will be jealous.

Fortunately, Narant's ability is there. Although everyone is jealous, they also know that Narant deserves it, so they are not dissatisfied, but Wei Wei feels that Bernard is really kind to Narant. !

And Bernard had long known that everyone would have such a reaction, so he didn't hesitate to tell everyone in detail what happened in the palace before, this was also to appease everyone's heart.

Otherwise, he will not suffer from widowhood but suffer from unevenness. If Bernard is too partial, there will definitely be vassals dissatisfied.

Bernard changed his expression and looked at Narant with a little seriousness, ready to start the canonization ceremony.

"Sir Narrant!"

"Lord Count, this subordinate is here!" Seeing this, Narant knew what he needed to do, and immediately stepped forward, then half-kneeled to the ground on one knee.

Although I am not used to this kind of etiquette, this is the etiquette that must be followed when a noble knight is appointed. Even in the 21st century in the previous life, some Western countries still follow it.

Thinking of this, Narant felt much better.

In addition, this Bernard is also Stella's father, so maybe he can become his own father-in-law, so this one knee and half kneeling once is not a loss.

"Narant Berwick, in view of your heroic performance on the battlefield of the autumn expedition, I, Bernard Tulip, hereby officially ennoble you as the vassal baron of the Glory Tulip Family!"

Saying that, Bernard drew out the long sword from his waist and raised it diagonally by his side.

"Lord Earl Xie has awarded the prize, and his subordinate, Narant Berwick, will definitely keep in mind the spirit of chivalry, face strong enemies bravely, be loyal to friends, and go through fire and water for the safety of Tulip Collar!"

"Very good! The God of Glory bears witness to your oath, and may it bless you to defeat all evil enemies!" Bernard nodded in satisfaction, then tapped Narant's shoulder with the tip of his sword.

After the tip of the sword was tapped and the long sword was sheathed, Bernard said affectionately, "Get up, Baron Narant!"

"Yes, Lord Count!" Narant stood up immediately.

At this moment, he Narant finally became a baron.

Although he is still a minor noble, he has hereditary rights, so he no longer has to worry about being empty after a hundred years of busy work.

"Congratulations! Narant!" At this time, Stella couldn't hide her joy and congratulated Narant.

"Congratulations to Baron Narant!" The nobles below also sent their congratulations.

"Thank you all!" Narant smiled and nodded at Stella, and then responded to everyone in the audience.

"Narant, about the fief, after the banquet is over, I will ask the butler to give you the contract!" Bernard continued to speak when the congratulations gradually faded.

"Yes, Lord Count, thank you for your reward!" Narant stood up straight and saluted again.

After a pause, seeing that his title and fief had already been obtained, he opened his mouth and said, "Lord Count, then I'll go down first!"

"Don't worry, Narant, I have something to do with you here!" Bernard waved his hand to stop him from stepping down.

"Uh? Is there anything else about me?" Narant was taken aback, "Lord Count, please tell me!"

The nobles below were also curious when they saw this, and stretched out their ears to hear what the Count had to say.

Bernard didn't let everyone wait, and immediately said with a smile: "Everyone knows, I selected a group of vassals' second sons to participate in the competition in the management of the territory in the first half of this year!"

"And about this competition, there is actually a rumor that I, Bernard, are choosing a husband for Stella!"

"Although I haven't personally confirmed it in the past, I can tell you now that this rumor is true, because it was deliberately spread by me!"

"It's true! It's just that the Count said this at this time, what are you going to do?"

Immediately, a group of small nobles began to speculate.

And Narant also froze in his heart, a little thoughtful.

Immediately, his eyes rolled, and he couldn't help but glance at Stella, who was beside him.

I saw Stella blushing at this moment, not daring to look at him.

Narant's heart trembled again.

At this time, Bernard's words came again: "According to the original plan, the choice of husband-in-law needs to be made after three years, and the performance of several second sons will be judged before making a decision!"

"But now it seems that the plan has not kept up with the changes!"

"Narant, as one of several second sons, now his achievements have completely surpassed the rest of the second sons, and the other second sons may not be able to reach his current achievements in three years."

"More importantly, because of Narant's excellence, my daughter, our tulip flower, she has already selected the person she likes! And this person is Baron Narant..."

"So, I decided that although the original competition continues, the other second sons can still compete for the baron position."

"But regarding Stella's marriage, I am going to announce the result in advance, that is, let Narant become my Bernard's son-in-law and marry Stella!"

Whoa!

"Guo... Sure enough!" Narant's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

He never dreamed that his engagement with Stella could come so quickly.

Of course, he was ignoring his own excellence, so he felt sudden.

With his current ability, in fact, any great noble would not hesitate to take him under his command.

And Bernard had this consideration, so he directly accelerated the speed.

After all, Bernard could clearly see the affection between his daughter and Narant.

"This... is this true? Narant can actually marry Miss Stella!"

"My God, this Narant is so lucky!"

In an instant, the nobles below buzzed like bees that had just emerged from the nest.

Originally thought that Narant's acquisition of the baron title and fief was already the highlight, but now I found out that the real highlight was behind it.

Stella is the heir to the earl, the next generation of earl of Tulip.

If Narant married him, would this title and territory still matter?

Well, although it is a little bit important, after all, it is with him.

But After he and Stella's children are born to inherit the title, what is the difference between the tulip collar and the storm collar?

In this way, Narant, relying only on his own generation, has advanced from the second son to the ranks of the great noble family of the count. Perhaps other nobles of seven or eight generations may not be able to achieve such an achievement.

"Narant!" After a while, Bernard stretched out his hand to suppress the discussion of the nobles and looked at Narant, who was still in a daze.

"Ear... Lord Earl, my subordinates are here!"

"I have already negotiated with your father, Andrew, to agree on the marriage between you and Stella tonight. As for the wedding, it can be held after you complete the call-up order. What do you think?"

"I……"

Narant finally understood what his father's excitement was when he followed Bernard into the hall.

It turned out to be a 'damn' arranged marriage, and the marriage contract was negotiated without even knowing it!

Also, what happened to Andrew's sentence earlier, "Wearing this dress won't embarrass Stella!" ' is also explained.
