Chapter 160
Agreed?
Sebastian's words obviously made Jarvan III not react.
You know, the nobles are all very shrewd, and they are the kind of guys who don't show their eagles until they see the rabbit.
Regarding such a big thing as a political marriage, people will definitely continue to ask questions.
But it is rare for someone like Count Laurent to agree without knowing anything.
The king's cultivation prevented Jarvan III from showing too much expression on his face, but he already understood what Sebastian meant:
This is naturally because Count Laurent firmly believes in himself as the emperor!
Otherwise, how could he agree to his proposal without thinking?
Count Sebastian is still a swordsman, and has not been invaded by the bad habits of the nobles.
Compared with the nobles who talked to Jarvan III before, Sebastian's trust in himself is rare and precious.
Jarvan III nodded in satisfaction to the earl, not knowing whether it was because of the other party's character or because he had solved a problem buried in his heart.
"Okay!" Jarvan III clapped his hands vigorously, and even made a promise to Count Laurent directly:
"Sebastian! On the day of your daughter's wedding, I will personally come to host it with you!
As for the wedding, there is no need to go to Tequila City in the northern province, just hold it directly in the capital of Demacia!"
Jarvan III also had a sudden idea, purely because he was moved by the loyalty and trust of Count Sebastian.
"Ah? Your Majesty, you will host it yourself?" Sebastian was also confused by Jarvan III's words. He realized it later and found something wrong at this moment.
A wedding of his own family? At that time, just invite members of his own family and the other family to participate.
Why do we have to hold it in the capital of Demacia?
Not to mention troubling the king to host a wedding in person.
Sebastian didn't understand the rules of the nobility, but he couldn't help but express his doubts at this moment:
"Your Majesty? I want to ask, who is the young and promising viscount you mentioned..."
"You have seen that young man, the young man who saved little Jarvan, who has a strong sense of belonging to Demacia..." Jarvan III said to Sebastian with a smile.
He explained very smoothly. Obviously, after the matter was finalized, Jarvan III's words became much more open and no longer concealed.
"Viscount?" Sebastian was shocked when he heard this and asked hurriedly,
"Your Majesty, you are talking about Viscount, how can he be a Freljord man? Even if he is awarded the title, it is a bit against the rules..."
Jarvan III nodded, holding the scepter in one hand, stood up and walked to Sebastian's side, laughing:
"Haha! Who said that! He is a genuine Demacian! He has Demacian blood.
As for the title of Viscount, when he enters your Laurent family, he will be named Laurent!
So, no matter from what aspect, at this time, he is qualified to inherit the title of Viscount.
Viscount of the North Sea Territory, what do you think?"
"Ah...this...Your Majesty, is this appropriate?" Sebastian blushed when he heard what Jarvan III said, and he almost jumped up.
Well, the Viscount of North Sea Forest is also talking about Sebastian.
Nobles can name officials in their own territories, such as tribunes, grain officials, village heads, town heads, clerks...
so that their territories can become prosperous in a reasonable manner.
But the title is different, it represents inheritance and inheritance.
When the descendants have not made any contributions, the nobles cannot arbitrarily award their children with titles, and must ask the king for permission.
Sebastian really didn't expect that Jarvan III could say such vicious words and take his own territory...
Just to thank him for saving your baby son, you want me to marry my daughter to him? And then give him my North Sea Forest and the title of Viscount?
Sebastian only felt that his head was dizzy at the moment, as if he would faint in the next moment.
"Why not?" Jarvan III continued with a smile,
"Of course, Viscount Jincheng Laurent will be a member of your Laurent family in the future. He must respect you as the head of the Laurent family.
Moreover, I want to reward you, the Laurent family. You have been diligently standing at the forefront of resisting the Noxians time and time again!
The swordsmen of your family protect every important official in the country..."
Sebastian originally wanted to leave due to physical discomfort, but after hearing the reward from His Majesty the King, his mind was filled with regret.The groggy feeling suddenly got better.
Listening to the territories and items awarded by the king, as well as the rewards for the two new couples.
Sebastian's heartbeat became louder unconsciously.
The nobles also know that unity and blood are thicker than water!
Blood and family honor are always the most reliable things in desperate situations.
And a strong family is destined not to be supported by one person.
A strong family is destined to be built by the unity of every member of the family.
Therefore, for the prosperity of the family, the Laurent family will provide free funding for every male Laurent to learn Laurent swordsmanship.
Even the family will help to bear part of the cost of learning.
The family allows every Laurent who cannot inherit the territory to at least have a skill.
As the head of the family, Sebastian will never allow any guy who bears the name of Laurent to be a waste.
Although in a direct confrontation on the battlefield, the Laurent swordsman may not be able to defeat a battle-hardened warrior.
But the swordsmen of their Laurent family are indeed suitable to be personal bodyguards, and...
Their swordsmanship, as gorgeous and combat-effective as roses, is also deeply loved by the nobles of Demacia.
Carrying the name of Laurent, a swordsman with real talent will be respected wherever he goes.
But those are the contributions made by non-direct members of the Laurent family.
Moreover, those nobles have paid real gold coins to hire them.
This reason for reward and the scale of reward are obviously not qualified.
As for the Laurent swordsman (assassin) who fought hard to assassinate the Noxian officers...
Sebastian listened to Jarvan III's words:
'Because the sword cavalry squad led by him assassinated those Noxian officers.
As a result, the enemy's defense line at the Gate of Sorrow collapsed, and they wanted to reward themselves. ’
God and heaven are conscientious, Sebastian didn't know how important his role was. He assassinated those Noxian commanders, and he laid the foundation for victory on the battlefield?
It is not known whether they have assassinated one-fifth of the middle and high-level officers in the Noxian army at the Gate of Sorrow.
"Your Majesty, you..."
Sebastian's dignity as a swordsman made him want to say something, but the noble obligations and responsibilities made the self-righteous Count Laurent shut up.
For the first time in Sebastian's life: the noble mind suppressed the dignity of the swordsman at this moment...
'Is this a political marriage? Can it benefit the family to this extent? '
Sebastian suddenly felt that the political marriage he arranged for his eldest son Andre Laurent was a bunch of...
hasty.
"Your Majesty, according to what you said, that young man is really a young talent!
The last time I saw that young man, I saw that he was dignified and dignified, so I was very optimistic about him!
He single-handedly rescued Prince Jarvan IV, and his body was full of wounds but he still had that heroic spirit!
After just two meetings, I wanted to take him as a confidant.
Our Laurent family really wants to thank your majesty for bringing such a young talent..." After Sebastian waited for Jarvan III to finish speaking, he already bowed with gratitude on his face.
He almost boasted that Jincheng was a god descending to earth.
He avoided the important point and did not thank the king for the gift, but expressed his great gratitude for the king's marriage. Sebastian, the head of the Laurent family is not in vain.
"Yes!" Jarvan III nodded with a smile, and immediately determined the matter.
"When can we invite the two young people to meet? As for the wedding, we should do it sooner rather than later!
Let's hold it on the holy day in eighteen days. I believe the Winged Guardian will bless them!
Also, bring the children to Xiongdu as soon as possible!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Sebastian thought of his daughter at this moment, and his eyes flashed with a gleam of light.
