190 Stories Meeting with the New Duke

"Sir Mortairn, I thank you for your deliberate efforts"

"For your sake, nothing like that."

The Duke of Kadreček, the King's Capital, is a separate residence.

The vast gardens on the property are sufficiently large to accommodate a single army. And above all, it's the colorful flowers that attract people's eyes. Flowers maintained by a family of gardeners, the embrace of the royal castle for generations, have some kind of flower blooming almost all year except for winter, and at this point, if the early summer winds plunder the garden, put on a scented smell to heal people's nasal cavities.

There are no unavailable areas on the site, are they cobbled or planted with trees? Otherwise, it is covered with a well-maintained lawn. The length of the lawn is exactly as measured by the rules, not short, but not long.

Although it is a garden with like hands, what is surprising is that these are accessories. The most important part of the premises is the mansion itself.

It is a common stone architecture in the Wang capital, but its size is no less than one and two, except for the royal castle. It's not like just loaded with stone bricks. Stone bricks cut out of a selection of white stone, built to a height where there would be three floors, masonry and carpenters stretching their breasts with the greatest masterpieces, and a beauty building.

The mansion of one of the country's greatest aristocrats. There is a reason why it was created with power and financial resources at all costs.

Originally, it was the Duke of Armenia who held military power in the Kingdom of God. The Kadreček family has always been a situation in which their heads could be kept down.

Twenty years ago. The Armaya family is in touch with the surrounding countries. At the end of the war, the Armaya family was destroyed and much of the military authority was to be transferred to the Kadrecek family.

It is self-evident that emerging forces are compared to the past. To dispel the influence of past ghosts, the Kadreček family is asked to boast of power and financial power that is easily understandable to everyone.

In doing so, it is this separate residence that can be found in the Wang capital. First time visitors look out for the beauty of it.

Such, the casserole, which was passed into the first luxurious house layout among the aristocratic towns, was facing the Lord of the mansion.

Praetorio-Hazbunova-Mil-Kadrecek, who took over the Duke from his father last year. It is that person. He has been ceded a title or governor by his father, Elizebio, and is in the status of current Kadrecek homeowner.

For the Mortairn family, he is also a fairly distant relative: the father of the husband of Liquorice's twin sister Petra, the wife of Pais.

Almost everyone else is the same between Caserol and Praetorio, but in the children's generation the intimacy that wives are sisters to each other. It's a really subtle sense of distance, being close to other people's behavior and far from being related.

"Well, how about some tea first?

"Thank you"

Where casserole and praetorio sat on the couch together, they thought they were in their thirties and forties and a woman made tea in a familiar breeze. The aroma of tea spread amidst expensive condiments.

"Well, very good tea. Excellent."

Caserol that gently dampens your mouth with the tea served. As a baron who is often called by people to go out, it is also deeply made of the flavour of tea.

"It's superb from Ratesh. They're choosing a good color among the young buds."

"Apparently?"

"It's for you. I got it from a certain house when I replaced it. Hi, there's a rumor that I like tea, and I get all kinds of tea from all over. Honestly, I can't drink enough on my own. Lord Casserole wants you to help him digest."

The Duke laughed lightly.

Besides, rumors that Praetorio likes tea are not unfounded.

Today the Kadreček family also has a family character and possesses villas and territories commensurate with it. Overall, it is all about land close to the king's capital, and there is nothing to complain about in terms of abundance.

However, the proximity to the Wang Du means that it is susceptible to the culture of Wang Du as it is. Make it an industry, make it a cultural culture, make it a policy, make it a popular breeze, basically imitate it to the right to the King's Capital.

The location condition of proximity to Wang Du is good in itself. The problem was that in all respects it would be the subordinate compatibility of the king's capital and kingdom, and the Praetorio, who had kept the territory, was trying to break it.

Attempts to grow tea in the territory are part of this.

When there are visitors, it is impossible to receive them without serving a single cup of tea. When the conversation is interrupted or there is some awkwardness, preparing food and beverages in order to naturally hold the room is fundamental in responding to the Guest. If you put something in your mouth, it's natural to keep it quiet, and you can't be rude to them. In the manual of reception in the aristocratic society, preliminary preliminary.

Incidentally, it can be detrimental to give visitors silent and awkward time without knowing this obvious implicit understanding in a house like the one made up of civilians.

Even if you don't know it's meant to be, “tea for visitors” is rooted in common sense if you were born and raised in a noble family.

In other words, tea leaves are a necessity for the nobility.

It is also used in ways that show the importance of tea to visitors because of the good and bad tea.

If you're a guest who wants you to go home, you don't serve tea or you serve crude things. If it's someone you want to play the conversation with, prepare as many good leaves as you can.

But tea leaves are also plants. The amount you can pick varies depending on the weather, and a good cup of tea takes a lot of time in the first place. In some cases, when you become advanced, you may end up with (munching) other than the leaves you need when you're growing them. Like mass production, it seems impossible in the first place.

Currently, when it comes to tea regions in the Kingdom of God, the South. Several houses, headed by the Ratesh family, make money from the production of this tea. If you want to get a good cup of tea steadily, you have to have a good relationship with the nobility of the Southern Valve.

Still, the finest products are the status quo monopolized by the place of production. For the Kadreček family to get it, they have to pay for it, including gifts.

As a new Duke Praetorio, I would also like to try whether I can't produce tea on my own territory. Rather than that, it is for every nobleman to give it a try. The contemporary duke did not leak into the example again, and from the seriousness of his birth he proceeded with the trial more enthusiastically than in history.

With the power of the Duke's house, it is possible to get the tea tree itself. Then we thought it would depend on our own efforts and research. If you're young and competent, even if you try something your ancestors couldn't do, it's something you might want to do.

Been starting before I succeeded to the title for over a decade. Tea production and research continues, and rumors of tea lovers in Praetorio come from here.

Sadly, it could only be done that still did not reach the upper hand, but at any rate it was striving to make something no less than that from the South.

"Ha, I'm a poorer knight than I was. Drinking all the good tea makes my wife jealous when I get home"

"Well, then you should take some home today. I have always been taken care of by the Mortairns. If you can get your wife back in the mood with one or two cups of tea, let's cooperate."

"Thank you"

The Duke is also noble. The tea we make souvenirs is, of course, the tea we prototype at the Duke's house. Affirmatively, I hope that will spread the name of the tea from Kadrecek.

It's this hand of socialization that makes you watch out for one of the souvenirs and lurk your intentions.

"So, what are you up to today?

Enjoying the flavour and aroma for a while, casserole with cups of tea sets out the requirements.

"Aren't you dissatisfied with just wanting to have a tea drink with me?

"I don't mind that."

Both the Duke of Kadrecek and Casserole are busy with their work. It's hard to think that I'm just going to go out of my way to call it in and enjoy tea in a public discourse.

I mean, it's a Duke joke, but it doesn't change the attitude of casserole that sticks to the point just now.

Man, in an atmosphere like that, the Duke speaks out about why he called.

"Has Sir Mortairn heard anything about the current situation in the Kingdom of Siri?

"Is it the Kingdom of Siri?

The Kingdom of Siri is a neighboring country in the East from the point of view of the divine kingdoms of the casseroles. It is a country that frequently clashes with the Kingdom of God, and in the past there have been priors who have ravaged the kingdom of God.

In recent years, the tide has been forced to recede by a certain pastry boy, and the Lutrout Border House, which boasted one of the finest forces within the Kingdom of Siri, has been crushed. I heard the country seemed to be in turmoil because of it.

"I don't know much about it. Since our country swallowed the Luttrut region, we have heard that it has refrained from reaching out to us."

"Mm-hmm. Exactly. On top of that, there's been more progress lately."

Progress?

Finally, the casserole gets the attitude right.

"With the crumbling of the Lutroot Border Bo family, one of the premier militants in that country and the most powerful of the hardliners against the Divine Kingdom, it seems that the country has become an anti-Divine Kingdom convergence advantage. Public opinion in the country is also becoming almost unified...... didn't you know when you saw that face?

"Ha."

Caserol's specialty is military. I am a militant who is good at softening the tension I cut at the front with my sword and I am not very interested in the foreign situation. That's why I get a raw reply.

"But the Kingdom of Siri is plotting the recapture of Lutroot territory"

"Ho."

The beginning of the matter is already the dispute between the Kingdom of Siri and the Kingdom of God on the other side of history. Human beings who remember, such as which got their hands on it first, sleep under the tomb without exception. A genealogy of bi-national strife that can only be traced in records rather than in memory.

However, who has the merit that led to the annexation of Lutroot territory? Casserole has a good idea of how it went.

"Making the territory“ stolen ”by our country doesn't change the hardliners or the moderates. The difference is the difference in response. It is the opinion of the hardliners that military and diplomatic pressure should be exerted on our country and that territory should be recaptured, even if it is empowered. It is the opinion of the moderates to improve relations with our country and to try to recapture the territory by negotiation"

"They both make sense, but it won't be easy for me to do it."

As a casserole, I felt the opinion of the hardliners was easier to understand. However, if it is not obvious that we can work together with strength, we are not going to deny that we will use modest means. The means of achieving the objectives are better determined by a large number of them.

"Of course. I never mind you cracking me, and I want you to do more and more for what you dispute inside. But there's also nothing convenient about it. If you're going to assume, you know you should assume the worse, right?

"Yes."

What is a bad assumption for the Kingdom of God? The humans of the Kingdom of Siri will unite and forge to reclaim the old lands.

"It's just that some of the moderates are cracked. Well, if you dare to name a faction, do you even call it a realist and an idealist? We are now in agreement that it is more a time to invest in internal affairs and feed the nation than to take military action. On top of that, it is idealistic to try to use the increase in national power to reclaim territory. It's more realistic to use it to boost national power than to reclaim territory."

"Do you mean the difference between trying to achieve the goal of territorial recapture from us or aiming for a viable goal that goes down a step, as that is too high a goal?

"That's the thing. Hardliners seeking to regain territory in the short term, idealists now trying to do so in the medium term as a disadvantage, and realists even looking at generations in the long term? By the way, the moderates have a major premise to hold in common. Sir Mortairn would understand?

"Well..."

No, I don't see the story yet.

All I know is that the Kingdom of Siri is aiming to reclaim its territory, but it is parted into several factions because of disagreements.

The casserole clouded the words while contemplating.

"No further intervention from our country, that is. militarily and diplomatically"

"I see."

"Some of our country's citizens say that now that the Kingdom of Siri is weak, it is an opportunity for further territorial expansion. In other words, the possibility of their grand premise breaking down is that it unfortunately exists. My father and His Majesty have a policy of maintaining the status quo. That's not why I can ignore it."

"They're everywhere that says good things."

The enemy is weak. Now is your chance. Hit me one more time and take more territory. The Duke is blurred that the opinion, for example, is growing every day.

That's what I say, because I'm a faction person in the Duke like no other.

Conflict with the earlier Kingdom of Siri, which was supposedly dominated by the Union of Southern Nations and the Hubarek family. They have people who feel they've been handled by the fact that they've got a piece on their arrow tip heading out for reinforcements. Who such a person resents or is jealous of.

Making, the Mortairn family is also a house with many enemies.

"Neither are the humans of the Kingdom of Siri, fools. I am naturally concerned about the bounce of our country, which I raised earlier. Well, there... what do the folks in the kingdom of Siri think"

"It must be the fulfilment of the big premise. You will try to consolidate the foundations."

"Correct. If we're going to fight for a fight, but we're not going to fight for the moment, and we're going to consolidate the inside, we're going to take action to stop external intervention..."

The kingdom of Siri is in decline. If you are trying to regain your national power, it is a natural move to move to stop further intervention by the Kingdom of God. But Casserole has concerns about the way the Duke says it.

"Should, you say?

"Actually, a messenger is coming from the Kingdom of Siri."

This is the subject of the story, Casserole nodded.

If you want to avoid any more intervention by the Kingdom of God, do you want to use the army to screw up your nose or explore where it drops off in a discussion? If it moves ostensibly, it would be these two streets.

Sending a messenger to make a pact of non-combat for now can be considered the norm.

"Well, is the one who does it with the moderates?

"Probably. It's just a guess. But I want you to be careful."

"What would you do?

"For the human beings of the Kingdom of Siri, the most obstructive thing now is Sir Mortairn. A hardliner would be willing to intercept, but even from a moderate, your intervention would be undesirable."

The Duke who does the body first.

"I understand that. But now it is."

To the Duke's attitude, a casserole that gently flaunts his shoulders. If you're talking about enemies, it's the Mortairn family you've got enough to sweep and throw away. Even if there are two more hostile forces now, it will now be.

"Ha, do you mean a hero's job is a base within, a moth lamp outside"

"To tell you that on purpose today?

"Oh. But you'll be especially noticed around you for a while to come. The enemy isn't just before."

"Accepted"

It was then three days later that Baron Mortairn's casserole was attacked.
