[Quickly wash this street with water!]
The torrential floodwaters washed everything away from the streets, including several dilapidated houses in Olde.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't cause trouble in our territory..."
"Wow, so much water..."
Ald stared blankly at everything before him, the massive torrent of water washing everything away. In no time, the streets were clean. Countless laborers flew in the sky and stood on the rooftops. The water seemed to have a mind of its own, washing only the streets and never touching anything else.
Looking at the brand-new street in front of him, Olde was even more afraid to offend Qin Yiyi.
Although he destroyed several houses, he was still very happy to have such clean streets in return.
Qin Yiyi walked in and went directly to the mechanical arm, which was the place that provided the energy of the radiation crystals and was also the symbol of the Viscount.
"Now I should have this insignia, right? She's holding the viscount's coat of arms."
this....
There are two ways to promote or demote imperial titles: first, by imperial bestowal; second, by annexation.
The empire even supports and encourages annexation, but such annexation must be under certain conditions. The empire does not allow fighting between lords, but it is inevitable that some high-ranking lords will bully low-ranking lords by relying on their power and manpower. If a high-ranking lord leads people to bully the weak, then the weak can inherit the high-ranking lord's position after the weak lord successfully fights back.
This means a change of title.
Old shook his head frantically.
"I'll give you all my hard labor and all my resources, but I can't give you this viscount title!"
"According to the rules of the Empire, you are already a defeated opponent, so why can't you give it to me?"
Qin Yiyi looked at Alder. He didn't have any powerful guards, relying only on his title of Viscount and the hundred or so half-orcs he had gathered, as well as a few pure-blooded orcs who followed him. But he was no match for Sid, and even less so for the tentacle monster. He posed no threat to Qin Yiyi at all.
The only threats to Qin Yiyi are the old man in the royal city and the rules of the empire.
She was simply waiting for Old to break the rules so she could retaliate according to those rules, and therefore she didn't have to bear any responsibility.
Olde was in a predicament. It was a fact that he couldn't beat Qin Yiyi, it was a fact that he didn't manage his territory as well as Qin Yiyi, and it was even more true that he had broken the law and become a defeated opponent.
All these facts combined, but... him!
He simply refused to relinquish his viscount position.
He hesitated and stammered, "My sister got this viscount title for me. If I lose it, how can I face my sister?"
As he spoke, he burst into tears, showing no shame whatsoever.
"I know you all say I'm fat and ugly, and I didn't become lord through my own abilities, so you all look down on me!"
!!
Qin Yiyi was startled by the loud crying.
"What are you doing!" Why can't you talk things out properly instead of trying to scare her by crying? He looks even uglier when he cries, and she's terrified that his snot will get on her!
She quietly raised a thin wall of water for herself, and the others around her were also shocked by Ald's sudden crying.
After venting his emotions for a short while, Ald raised his head and said, "Although I am ugly, I have a beautiful older sister!"
"Hmph, you don't know, do you? The Emperor's most beloved mistress is my sister!"
Men conquer the world to conquer women, while women conquer men to conquer the world.
"My sister is Barbara, the Emperor's most beloved mistress!"
His sister had only been by the king's side for a little over half a year, yet she had already elevated him from a commoner to a baron, and then from a baron to a viscount, doubling the size of his territory! (The actual territory was smaller than the original Qin territory; the Qin territory had been abandoned, making the territory appear smaller. Just like unlocking resources and territories in a game, Qin Yiyi would gradually revitalize the abandoned territory.)
Barbara the mistress!
Qin Yiyi shook her head: "Never heard of it!"
The tentacle monster shook its head along with it, and the tentacles behind it also shook their heads.
[None of the hands have ever heard of this!]
Ald yelled!
"You don't even know my sister Barbara!"
This is not Qin Yiyi's fault. Her original body was a pure-blooded human. To prevent any accidents, her father did not recommend that she go out in the bustling royal city. Although her family was an earl, there were also marquises, dukes, princes and so on in the royal city. If she went out, some people would covet her beauty. If they tried to pull her away, how strong would the orcs be!
She was bound to get hurt. Besides, although her father was a general and had some influence in the capital, he was away from home most of the year and couldn't protect her all the time. Sure enough, after three years away, he couldn't even protect his family property, which was then robbed.
Therefore, the original owner of the homebody did not know who Barbara was, let alone heard of Barbara's bewitching methods!
Qin Yiyi, who had transmigrated from another world, had no idea who Barbara was.
However, Qin Yiyi didn't know, but Xide did.
He tugged at Qin Yiyi's sleeve and whispered in her ear, "Barbara is not someone to be trifled with. She became Peter the Great's mistress and is now gradually trying to get her hands on politics!"
"She promoted her brother Olde because she wanted his support in court, so Viscount Olde would rise through the ranks without losing his title!"
If Barbara's title were taken away at this time, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?
Qin Yiyi's father, Earl Ye Qin, is missing and his fate is unknown. It's still uncertain whether he can be found. She is still young and vulnerable. Even though she is no longer a fragile pure-blooded human, her territory is still in dire need of resources. She cannot afford to offend Barbara.
