Chapter 28(1/3)

Serthborg did not become quiet because of the arrival of winter. On the contrary, the cold temperatures made the rich naturally wear luxurious and expensive fur coats on their bodies.

The function of keeping cold is far less important to the nobles than to show their status.

Like the luxurious carriages arranged neatly outside the villa, the various fur coats undoubtedly show the nobleness and great power of the guests.

Last night, the temperature in Serthburg suddenly dropped a lot overnight. When he woke up in the morning, Ruibo truly felt the arrival of winter.

Rebow was not very interested in the arrival of the important officials of Sethborough, but out of courtesy, he had to thank them one by one.

In the garden living room, the gifts were piled up in mountains, and Miss Lanty took three maids to register the gifts and the people who gave them, and marked the family they belonged to beside them.

This is a favor. When the right time, Ruibo must be busy with this. Returning gifts is not necessary, but returning a visit is indeed a polite manner. And depending on the value of the gift, the visit time will be different. This matter is absolutely unscathing.

After the second floor reception room was redecorated, it was somewhat similar to Mr. Hyde's treasure pavilion, but there were only those truly priceless treasures here.

Since the fire, the antiques treasured in the villa have been sent to the ancestral home in Sesie Castle by Miss Meiding. What is left are only ordinary porcelain, vases and gold and silver utensils that cannot be burned or broken.

Although these things are not expensive and far from real works of art, after careful arrangement, the place is magnificent.

The imitation oil paintings arranged in a staggered manner are definitely from masters, and they only have a value gap with real famous paintings.

A large glass jar filled with water and many beautiful and colorful marine creatures is the most eye-catching decoration of all the furnishings.

This is Ruibo’s meticulous masterpiece. In addition to its beauty, this glass cylinder is also equipped with the same device as the large water tank on the roof. Ruibo does not want the second floor to be burned by a fire again.

Apart from this glass jar, the others are all the meticulous masterpieces of Miss Frera.

The guests who visited were obviously attracted by this beautiful scene because there were so many things that interest them, especially the glass jar. Almost everyone was thinking about it. After going back, they must put them in their living room exactly the same.

When they heard the maids say that this strange decoration was the creativity of the little lord, the people nodded repeatedly, obviously this did not arouse their surprise. What made them feel strange was the attitude of the maids towards the little lord.

The important officials of Serthburg were all experienced people, and of course they could see that these maids obviously had unique emotions towards the little lord. There was no need to explain what was happening in it. Everyone knew it clearly.

Ruibo lay on the sofa. In order to make him feel comfortable, several layers of thick camel velvet had been laid on the sofa, and a blanket woven with gooseberry and silk thread was gently placed on Ruibo's knees.

Unlike usual, Ribo wore loose living clothes instead of the usual beautiful, solemn, but extremely restrained dress. Today he is a patient, not the heir to the lord.

Although those officials did come to report to him, they were also people who visited the patients.

Since the Earl Robert quietly left from Serthburg, the officials of Serthburg felt that they had been much more relaxed, and the little lord's awakening undoubtedly made them think that the envoy's complete failure.

Although the officials of Serthburgh did not dare to openly challenge the authority of this Earl Robert, visiting the little lord would mean telling the Earl Robert that they were on the stance of hostility to him.

Everyone did not intend to get any benefits for this visit, because there were too many people coming to visit. In the end, the acting lord decided to turn their visits into routine work reports, which disappointed those who originally wanted to contact the little lord privately.

However, now every person who sees the unique layout of the villa living room is shouting in his heart that it is worth it.

In addition to the large glass jar in the living room, the beautiful and charming lady sitting next to the little lord.

Although everyone has heard that the little lord has a beautiful beauty who is specially designed to seek the kind of entertainment that his family members have loved for generations, most people have not yet truly realized that this rumor is absolutely true.

Everyone was deeply attracted by Frera.

Frera's tempting expression was the culprit that caused all this.

Fortunately, these officials have not completely forgotten the purpose of their trip. They dare not show any contempt to the little lord, but no one pays attention to the Mr. Eckert standing behind them. At the same time, they must focus on the three people, which is definitely not something that an ordinary person can do.

For Ruibo, smiling faces are something he is used to to do.

When he was in Nangang, the kind of kind smile he learned from the store was several times more clever than the so-called politician smiles familiar to these nobles. Therefore, Ruibo, who showed a charming smile, would definitely not see anybody's boredom and impatientness in his heart.

If there are many things in the upper class life that make him feel interesting, then this boring social engagement is the only thing that makes him feel bored.

First, I would like to say a complimentary word, wish my health, and then report my work tremblingly, and also seize the opportunity to suggest that I was definitely not standing on the camp of Count Robert.

It seems that most of the officials in Serthborough were taught by the same tutor, and even speaking and thinking were exactly the same, which made Ribo, who had just recovered, feel a little tired of it.

But he still pretended to listen with great enthusiasm, and had to maintain that false and empty smile. This was not a pleasant thing, but it was a responsibility he had to do as the Lord of Serthburgh.

Ruibo is indeed a little tired of this position that everyone envies.

After the matter was over, handing over the power to Miss Randy was a relief for him, but what worried Ribo was that the old Miss Medin seemed to have changed his mind a little, which made Ribo feel a little worried.

Compared to being a lord, he prefers to conduct magic research, and the magic world is now becoming more and more deeply attracted to him.

In addition to magic research, reading is also a great pleasure.

The study and laboratory have long been his lingering place.

Although Ruibo nodded frequently to the officials who were reporting to him with a smile, he hoped that their report would be shorter.

In the study, there is also a travel report written by Moromal, the greatest explorer of the Franx IX era. It was a good book he just found.

Amid Ribo's expectations, the lengthy official report finally ended.

Like Ribo, the officials also breathed a long sigh.

Facing this meticulous boss, the officials were also nervous. Officials who had nothing to do withdrew from the reception room one after another, leaving behind the most important and most prominent officials in Sethborough.

The acting lord Earl Fesnan naturally had to stay, and he needed to listen to the little lord's further instructions.

Fei Sinan felt extremely happy to do things under this little lord, because the little lord would consider everything for him, even the steps to execute and the details that need to be paid attention to, and he just needs to do it accordingly.

Moreover, the clever ideas of the little lord always bring great wealth to Serthborg, and as the executor, he naturally gained a lot of benefits from it.

This made other officials of Serthburg envious, especially Count Laiwei.

As the chief of military affairs, Count Laiwei is naturally qualified to attend. He definitely does not want the guy Fei Sinan to take over those clever suggestions, because that is equivalent to countless bright gold coins. He is absolutely not so stupid that he does not know how to use this huge wealth.

Unlike these two people who are determined to make profits, Viscount Relta is a truly loyal figure, the only one who is truly here to visit his illness.

The Viscount Tornam had already learned about Rebbo's physical condition from the beautiful daughter of Baron Lonna who lived in their house and the naughty girl of Viscount Telbo. He came out of courtesy.

Viscount Tornam was extremely proud of being so close to the little lord's heir. Neither Viscount Pifole nor Viscount Falis could have such close ties with the little lord's heir.

Just as most of them were waiting for Ruibo to propose valuable and great wealth to everyone here on the reports of those officials just now, Viscount Falis suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Lord, some things must be confessed to the Lord."

Viscount Falis looked extremely serious when he said this, obviously not a joke.

Everyone in the living room was stunned, and everyone stared at the judge blankly.

"Did you say it a little too seriously? I have always trusted you." Ribo said in the grammatical way of being a complete politician taught by Eckert.

"Lord, I am not an exaggeration. I was with Count Matil, and I planned to prove that the identity of Lord Matil was illegal. Of course, I don't know about Count Matil's crazy actions."

What Falis said undoubtedly fell on everyone's hearts like a meteorite, which was a huge shock.

The same is true for Rebow, but what he learned from Ector made him very clear. There must be something even more important behind the words of Falis.

No matter how you look at Ribo, you can't find a look of regret or ashamed expression on this Lord Falis's face.

If the judge did not think so, and was not a real discovery of conscience, then he must have something more important to exchange with himself, exchange for all his forgiveness for his past, and exchange for his unshakable position as a judge.

Rebow glanced at Eckert behind him.

Eckert's eyes told him that everything the Lord Falis said did not surprise him, and it was obvious that Mr. Hyde had known about it from other aspects.

Then Ribo calmed down and said calmly: "Mr. Falis, I don't plan to pursue what happened at that time. In fact, I even welcome the members of the Mathier family back. The Mathier family has made a lot of contributions to Franx South and generations. I don't plan to let the entire family be submerged for his own actions."

Rebow's words undoubtedly sent a willingness to reconcile to Viscount Falis. However, although Viscount Falis was touched, he was not interested in his willingness to pardon the Mathil family. It seemed that it was not the Earl of Mathil who caused the storm behind this incident.

In Serthburg, there was only one person who was the enemy of himself in the south of Franz, and that was the Earl of Robert.

Rebow looked back at Eckert again, knowing that his guess was not wrong.

"Is the envoy also trying to prove the legitimacy of my identity? It seems that he still doesn't give up on this matter?" Ruibo said with a smile. Although he didn't know what tricks the envoy would do this time, since Eckert had noticed it, it means that Mr. Hyde had already arranged the means to deal with the envoy.

In fact, Rebe and Miss Lanti had discussed this matter privately. After all, no one would think that Count Robert would let go. He was definitely not the kind of person who was willing to give up.

"Yes, sir, you guessed that there was no mistake at all. Earl Robert used the mistake I had made to threaten me to cooperate with him." Viscount Falis said carefully.

Viscount Falis has been hesitating for the past few days. Although he was almost certain that the identity of the little lord was fake, it was no longer important. As long as the officials of Serth Fort approved it, as long as the only survivor of the Medin family, the old Miss Medin recognized it, even His Majesty the King had nothing to say about it.

After sitting in the position of the Supreme Justice for so long, Viscount Falis knew very well that even if the evidence was conclusive, His Majesty the King and Count Robert had little chance of victory.

What's more, the multiple assassinations of the little lord's heir and the failed assassination by Count Robert made the chance of success of the lawsuit extremely slim.

The Count Robert's will and His Majesty the King's mistakes also made him, who was familiar with Francis' laws, quite clear about how dangerous his Majesty the King was walking on a path, and at the end of the path there was a prince sharpening his knife.

It is undoubtedly a very stupid thing for His Majesty the King to openly fight against the cornerstone that maintains the safety of the entire Francis.

After thinking about it, Viscount Falis finally decided to betray the precarious alliance with Count Robert. Anyway, he had betrayed Earl Matil, and it would be nothing great to betray an envoy.

What really made Viscount Falis feel a headache was how to impress the Lord, and how after the matter was over, the Lord did not regard himself as an annoying person who knew too many secrets that he shouldn't have known.

This is something that really worries him.

For the heir of this little lord, Viscount Falis would never consider him a rude boy because of his age. He had to consider his safety clearly.

If anyone in Sethburg knew the details of Rebbo best, then it was undoubtedly Viscount Falis.

Although he could not believe what the merchant said that the little lord was a small clerk in Nangang who disappeared more than half a year ago. After all, the little lord's knowledge and skills were definitely not like a newcomer who was rushed to train in one and half a year, and his identity as a magician made Viscount Falis feel unimaginable.

But he was definitely sure that the young man was not the real heir to the lord.

On the day of the identity confirmation ceremony, Ribo's cold performance made Falis fully recognize that the lord's heir was a person walking in the dark and hunting for other people's lives.

In the judicial office of the capital, he had seen several guys who were exactly the same in the closely guarded cell, but compared with them, the heir of the little lord and Mr. Hyde's personal bodyguard were obviously better.

How to do business with the cold killer did give Viscount Falis a headache for several days.

His conclusion was not perfect, but this was already the limit he could imagine.

Because of this, he must have strong witnesses, and the highest officials of Serthburgh must be the best witnesses, and the proposal of Earl Fesnan undoubtedly gave him the best reason to approach the heir of the little lord.
