After figuring out the causes and consequences of all this, Qin Yiyi made a plan.
She couldn't obtain the title of Lord, but she could make Lord obey her, and thus...
"For your sister's sake, I'll give up this title!"
Old was very happy, but at the same time he was also a little proud.
"I knew you'd give in because of my sister. Her name will soon be known throughout the entire empire, just wait for my sister..."
"Even when your sister gives birth, the child will only be a mistress's child. It won't have the title of prince, nor will it receive the royal family's recognition!"
"you!"
Just as Ald was about to ascend to heaven, a bucket of cold water was poured directly down on him.
I got soaked from head to toe.
But Qin Yiyi was right. Even if the whole kingdom knew that Barbara was a mistress and that Barbara was involved in politics, Barbara had no children, or rather, no real status. So even if she gave birth to a child, it would be illegitimate!
Have you ever heard of a concubine's child inheriting the throne? No!
If you want your child to have a legitimate identity, you must first have a legitimate identity yourself.
Qin Yiyi offered a tremendous temptation.
"I can forgo your title, but I want you to follow me, Alder. If you follow me and become powerful, are you afraid you won't be able to help your sister?"
Old was taken aback, then burst into laughter.
"It's not that I look down on you, but why would I follow you? My sister is the empire's number one mistress, and what do you have? A mere lord of a territory in the Qin Beast Territory?"
!!
Qin Yiyi swung the black bread and gave Ald a good whack.
"Qin territory is not Qin beast territory!" She was afraid that someone would call it a beast territory, which is why she emphasized the word "Qin" and put up a light sign on her territory!
Qin Ling!
"What do I have? Ald, have you ever wondered why I'm the lord of a baronial territory at such a young age? My guards are all capable of taking on ten men each?" She didn't mention that she could take on a thousand men single-handedly, which would be too exaggerated!
Olde was jolted back to reality by her angry outburst. "Oh right! Why?"
Is it because she's pretty?
To be honest, if I didn't know how powerful she was, sending her to the capital with her pretty face would definitely be a great help to my sister!
A woman's appearance is also a disguised weapon!
Qin Yiyi snorted coldly.
"My father is Earl Ye Qin of the Empire!"
"Although he is only a count, he is the empire's number one general!"
The surrounding crowd gasped in astonishment; it was General Ye Qin.
"She's actually General Ye Qin's daughter! I should have known! I should have known!"
Some of the slaves burst into tears upon hearing this, while the laborers from the viscount's territory who had gathered around looked on in disbelief.
"No wonder General Ye Qin's daughter can govern her territory so well!"
“I remember when City C368 was about to be swallowed by the yellow sand and become the new Misty City, even the Empire gave up on rescuing the people in these slums. Only General Ye Qin led a hundred soldiers in and successfully brought out all the poor people without a single one being injured. I... I was the one who was brought out by General Qin!”
The slave beside her knelt down, tears streaming down his face, right next to Qin Yiyi.
"My lord, I swear I will be loyal to you forever. Without your father, I would not have this life, and without you, I would have no hope of living. Your father saved me once, and you saved me a second time. From now on, I will dedicate my life to Qinling and to you! My lord!"
Qin Yiyi tried to help the person up.
"You are my slave, it's only right that I let you live with dignity!"
She remained as arrogant as ever, spouting things that others might consider grand pronouncements, but they knew that their lord was capable of truly making them come true!
The surrounding slaves all obeyed Qin Yiyi.
"My lord, please don't say that. Among us slaves, there are relatives who escaped from various cities. When Earl Ye Qin was fighting in the Misty City, we or our relatives were saved by Earl Ye Qin! Now we are fortunate enough to be under his daughter's territory, and we are living with such hope. We never expected this. We should be even more loyal to you!"
Ord knew that Earl of Night Qin, whose military achievements should have earned him the rank of marquis long ago. However, he did not accept the marquisate but instead asked for a large amount of land as a reward. He wanted to cultivate the land to help some poor children and families who had lost their main source of income due to the war. The empire did not provide subsidies for these families, so he subsidized them himself.
To be honest, Olde deeply admired Count Ye Qin. Even his sister Barbara only praised him when she spoke of him, but she would never touch Count Ye Qin in matters of politics.
As Alder watched the slaves behind Qin Yiyi kneel down and kowtow to her to show their loyalty, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. For so long, he hadn't even received a single word of thanks, let alone a kneel down to show his loyalty or kowtow!
He felt a pang of sadness; he was also thinking of these people...
He looked back at his laborers, each dressed like a refugee, filthy and smelly, skin and bones—that's the kind of people they were...
he.....
He looked at his own art style, then at Qin Yiyi's, and had to admit...
Ald began to understand.
He looked at Qin Yiyi.
"Since you are the daughter of Earl Ye Qin, I am willing to follow you out of respect for Earl Ye Qin, but I have one condition!"
