The quarrel became louder and louder, but before Kunsang could turn over the table, someone else took away the right to speak.
"Your Excellency Oran, as far as I know, the Viking Danfa area in the north has been very peaceful recently, and I haven't heard of any conflicts." Binner Etiwu, Ella's counselor, joined in.
"Sir, this surname comes from eastern Frankia, close to Denmark. This man is very proud. When I first came to talk, he kept looking for trouble." Ulf whispered softly.
Ulf's more than ten years of experience as a clergyman and secular steward is not just a decoration. He knows many things - such as noble family lines - much better than Oran.
The family fiefdom where Bengle was located was a valley rich in flowers and plants, but it was occupied by local hostile lords, so he crossed the sea and began to seek employment in Kent, and finally arrived in Northumbria.
Nobles who can write and understand etiquette, even if they lose everything, will still have the opportunity to be protected by other great nobles, because the great nobles also need people to help manage their territories.
Nowadays, Binner Etiwu handles Ella's various correspondence and correspondence.
People who have lost their territory are naturally very concerned about the land. For any war in County Durham, he will send people to collect intelligence.
County Durham was one of the eight counties in the kingdom that Binr repeatedly suggested Ella conquer first.
He believed that as long as Oran's father was conquered, the balance of power would be reversed, and the other two neutral counties in the north would become his supporters.
With Binger's strong suggestion, there were several opportunities, but luck may not have been on our side. A small group of Vikings invaded, disrupting the plan, and the situation evolved to this point. Olan actually took the lead.
With a strange and difficult to pronounce surname, Oran's eyes met the counselor's.
"Counselors" were called "royal advisors" in Frankish.
Many of the counselors left their hometowns to travel after losing their family land, looking for suitable monarchs to serve in order to obtain territorial rewards.
Originated from southern Frankishness decades ago. During these twenty years from 780 to 800 AD, Charles of the Franks expanded his territory, maintained papal authority, and combated heresy.
On December 25, 800 AD, that is, sixty-five years ago, Charles was crowned in the Roman church and was called "Emperor of the Romans" and "Protector of God's Light."
People at that time dubbed him "Charlemagne" (meaning "Emperor in French") - so Charles was respectfully called "Charlemagne".
In the same year, a book of Charlemagne's decrees on the palace system, cultural dissemination, educational classics, language and customs, "The Complete Book of the Monarch", began to show the entire empire.
This book was very comprehensive and was the most famous encyclopedia at the time. It was also a great book in the hearts of the Frankish nobility, second only to the Bible studied by the priests.
Charlemagne's "Carolingian family" ushered in the "Renaissance" in Frank, and the national power increased by leaps and bounds.
Therefore, it is also called the "Carolingian Renaissance".
It is not easy to spread knowledge, and Oran has only read part of the "Encyclopedia of Monarchs", which is the chapter on the "Law of Vassal Territory"...
Bin'er's biggest dream is to become a "counselor" and become a "palace prime minister" and marry a female member of the royal family.
When he opened his mouth, he was full of Frankness and old Frankishness.
Ella's status as king made him read French, the powerful language of the south.
Binger didn't care whether the other knights could understand it or not, he would switch to court French (noble accent) whenever he faced Ella.
When speaking to other people, switch to Mid-British English.
"Your Excellency Oran, according to 'Charlemagne's Encyclopedia of Sovereigns, which contains an introduction to the laws of the kingdom.
Legal principles have been sacred and noble things since ancient times, and words cannot fully describe them. It is the proof that the ancestors lived here, and it is also the right given by God to the lords to rule the earth. The vassals must obey the superior lords as they obey the Lord.
The title of County Sheriff of County Durham is still in the hands of His Majesty Ella, and the law prohibits vassals from going to war privately.
You attacked the Moore family without permission, and also captured the former baron and returned to your territory. Do you want to explain?"
Even though "Charlemagne" has been sleeping for fifty years, his prestige and spirit still influence future generations of Franks.
Not only Bingle, but also Ella herself admired Charlemagne.
Because Charlemagne also initiated the "palace study tour" system, which allowed monarchs from all over the mainland to send their heirs to study Frankish culture as palace retinues.
After returning to China, he will spread Frank's etiquette, customs and language.
Ella also went to Frank's court when she was young and stayed for a year.
All roads lead to Paris!
There is a proverb that once said,
“Go to Rome to see the mercy of the Lord, and go to Paris to see the power of the monarch.”
Seeing that Binger even brought out "Charlemagne", Olan almost wanted to argue with him about the complete book of monarchs.
Moving the sword? Bin'er doesn't look strong, but his swordsmanship is just a makeshift. .
Move your mouth? I am familiar with many classics, but I am confident that I will not lose to a counselor.
But Ella didn't say anything, so Oran was still handed over to his subordinates.
"Your Excellency, this is because I was attacked first!" It was Kunsang who spoke this time, and at the same time he "intentionally" shook the table.
But this is someone else's castle, not your County Durham!
Dozens of Ella soldiers are just below the hall. No matter how crazy you are, what can you do?
His face with Viking tattoos had already made Binger dissatisfied, because when the Vikings invaded the Frankish capital, he felt that civilization was being impacted by barbarism, and it was a dark apocalypse!
Binger countered, "Even so, after victory, the advance should be stopped, and..."
Both lords looked at their men and spoke.
If your subordinates make trouble again, let them go.
Because Ella wants to talk about success, Oran also wants to, once this tone is set in her heart, even if the situation changes, someone will come out to suppress it.
Ella waited for Oran to speak, he wanted to take the initiative.
Olan looked around at the expressions of these people. He couldn't guess what they were thinking. All he could do was make some concessions without losing his own interests.
He slowly took a sip of ale and asked everyone except Chao Ella, "Everyone, what do you mean, the younger brother is not allowed to sit in the elder brother's seat?"
Even if the elder brother wants to get his hands on his younger brother’s wife and banish his father? Even if he wants to convert to Odin?”
Olan secretly changed the concept, led the topic to another situation, and poured as much dirty water as he could on it.
The method of "defiling someone's innocence and calling them heresy" is really useful.
Avalon did not do any of these bad things, including interfering with his brother's wife, persecuting his father, and converting to a different god. However, he did attack Oran. This is an evil act more terrifying than "parricide beast".
Ella and her brother Osbert competed against the brothers Ghazi and Avalon.
After Ella's men reacted, they could no longer answer the conversation at will, because the person involved, King Ella, was watching from the side!
Olan glanced at him, and Ulf, the head of diplomacy and internal affairs, began to fight back.
"The right person should sit in the right seat. Back then, why did you and your fathers support His Majesty Ella?
His Majesty Osbert was a legitimate king who was decreed by the king, crowned by the priests, and recognized by the nobles. He also had an heir, but you still overthrew him.
This is because His Majesty bravely fought against the Vikings!
However, the 'former king' wanted to escape as soon as he encountered the Vikings, and even wanted to cede the land north of County Durham to the Vikings as overseas legal territory. If the negotiation is successful, the area of the 'Danfa District' today will be five times as big as it is now!"
Ulf spread his palm and waved his "five" fingers, vividly.
