In terms of acting skills, Nalant is not inferior to Alding at all. Moreover, after watching so many movies and TV series in his previous life, Nalant knows how to minimize his own responsibilities at the moment.
To put it bluntly, just three words are pretending to be pitiful!
As long as everyone has sympathy for the weak, psychology.
Nalant pretended to be poor as soon as he opened his mouth and found a good excuse for setting up a street stall in the square.
That's you, Lord Count. It's your daughter's birthday and I set up a street stall in this square in order to prepare a gift for her. Even the nobles and their dignity don't care.
So, Lord Earl, you said, isn’t it too abominable for Aldin to come to trouble me under such circumstances?
After Nalant finished speaking, the Earl had not yet expressed his opinion, but Aldin vomited three liters of blood after hearing this.
"Boy, you are obviously trying to quibble about why I asked you not to set up a stall in the square anymore, but you didn't tell me these reasons!"
"Viscount Alding had so many nobles present at that time. If I said that I would set up a street stall to buy gifts for Miss Stella, not to mention myself, my face would be Miss Stella's, and my face would also be affected."
"Furthermore, the Earl has never banned the setting up of street stalls in the Tulip City. Why do you, Alding, prohibit it with words? Do you, Alding, have more effective words than the Earl?"
"In addition, I was conferred by the earl, and the vassal was not consecrated by you, Viscount Alding!"
"Poof!" Aldin was hit hard again, and Nalant's last two sentences were heartbreaking.
If it had been like this for anyone else, I doubt it would have any lethality.
But Aldin is an earl, and his brother's attempt to seize the family title has always been taboo within the nobility.
"You...you are such a slanderous brat that I will fight you to the death today!" Aldin gritted his teeth.
"I won't allow Aldin, your noble Viscount, or the Silver Knight to have the nerve to duel with me!"
"you……"
"That's enough!" Seeing that the two of them were turning into shrews and scolding the public again in the meeting hall, the earl finally spoke.
In this way, Nalant and Aldin looked at each other bitterly and then fell silent.
After scolding the lord, the earl continued to look at the two of them, especially Nalant.
This Andrew, the second son, was very inconspicuous in the past, and there was no information about this son in his memory.
The reason why he was canonized was simply because he met the requirements of the competition.
Unexpectedly, in the past three months, Nalanant would show up more often than the other second sons whom he had favored at the beginning.
"You said you set up a stall in the square to prepare a gift for Stella?" The Earl asked Nalant in a deep voice.
"Yes, Lord Count!" Nalant's voice was strong and he didn't feel guilty at all. He felt that whether things would be punished or severely punished today would depend on his performance now.
The Earl stared at Nalant closely, trying to see a trace of guilt and pity in his eyes, but Nalant's eyes did not dodge, and the Earl had no way of knowing whether it was true or false.
Fortunately, it doesn't matter. Who calls him the Earl?
Even if Narante is lying, then he can make this lie become true.
"Narant, where did you get this ice cube from?"
"Sir, Lord Earl, one of his subordinates read from an ancient book that there is a way to make ice cubes artificially!"
"How to make ice cubes artificially?" The Earl expressed some emotion. If this is true, then this would be a big fortune.
Of course, the Earl was only slightly moved and had other thoughts because this could only be used for enjoyment.
"Then how much money did you make from running a street stall today?"
"I haven't calculated it yet, Lord Earl, I have subordinates, but according to the situation this morning, I should be able to earn ten gold coins!"
"Ten gold coins? Then let's use ten gold coins!" The Earl nodded and continued, "It's already July 2nd and there are five days left before the birthday celebration. Since you said you earned it from the street stall, the money is for Silk. Della bought the gift five days later. I hope you will bring it out at the banquet. The gift must not be less than fifty gold coins!"
“Can Nalant do it without you?”
"As long as there is an Earl, I guarantee that I will give it to Miss Stella when the time comes. The gift is worth no less than fifty gold coins!" Hearing this, Nalant agreed without hesitation.
Of course he would not hesitate. He had originally planned to give it to Stella, and the gift was worth more than this amount.
The Earl mentioned that this request was not mentioned to him.
Of course, the Earl certainly did not expect Nalant to be so rich. After all, the Berwick family was notoriously poor.
"Your Excellency, the Earl has nobles from all over the principality coming to the castle. If he continues to set up a stall in the square, I am afraid it will affect the image of our Tulip collar!"
Aldin naturally refused. He didn't care whether Nalant made money to buy gifts.
He was concerned about Nalant. If the street stall continued to stand, it would affect his ice shop and business.
"Have you been too free these past two days, Aldin? There are so many things in the castle, and you have no time to take care of the street stalls!" But in the face of Aldin, the Earl of Objection asked coldly. .
Of course, this is not because the earl favored Nalan regardless of family ties. In fact, before the earl left the castle, the little maid Lina told him what happened.
Lina's perception of Nalant is not comparable to that of Aldin, and she has seen everything in the square. When she came to the castle to bring reinforcements, Lina put Nalant on the side of justice. But Aldin has become an arrogant and domineering villain who seeks trouble.
"My lord, I know...I know I was wrong!" Aldin was scolded coldly by his lord, and in the end he could only break his teeth and swallow his resentment into his stomach.
boom!
"My Lord Count, it's so hard for me!"
Just when things were about to end in the hall, the door was suddenly pushed open, and then a strong, middle-aged man walked in.
Before anyone could get close to him, the cry was already echoing throughout the hall.
In the hall, after hearing this, the three people stared blankly at the people coming in. This sturdy middle-aged man was none other than Narant, the cheap daddy Andrew.
"Andrew..."
"My lord, Aldin, deceived people too much. Back then, my Berwick family had the opportunity to become rich, but he deliberately lured dark creatures to my territory and killed the iron ore elves in my territory. The Rick family owes a large amount of foreign debt.”
"And now the Earl has finally chosen his second son for a competition, and he deliberately assigned me and little Nalant to the land of doom!"
"Originally, forget it, that's all in the past, but I am here today, and little Nalant just wants to make a little money in Tulip City to develop his territory, but this Aldin is going to cause destruction again, and he even wants to You must lead your subordinates to use the big to bully the small!"
"My lord, Earl, I, Andrew, also killed five silver knights on the northern battlefield, but now I am being used by Aldin as your biological brother. I am so humiliated that even myself and my children cannot protect me, lord Earl." Make the decision for me! Make the decision for my Berwick family!"
Andrew didn't have the chance to speak to the earl. When he had the opportunity to walk, he showed a sad expression and expressed his grievances with heartache.
Of course, when he finally walked to Nalant, Nalant clearly saw his cheap dad winking at him without leaving any trace.
"Hiss! This style of painting is wrong! If my dad wasn't chasing Aldin in front of the earl, how could he have such outstanding acting skills?" Nalant was immediately shocked.
