Age of Empires From Scratch Chapter 297

  Chapter 297 I don't know if it's a family dinner lunch

   Rosie Stewart hugged her daughter, but glanced at the 'maid' beside her.

This action is very subtle, but it cannot escape David's perception. Even if the maid is placing drinks and fruit cakes for David at this time, blocking his sight, David can still 'see' the 'maid' facing him. Her Royal Highness shook her head lightly.

  Rosie seemed secretly relieved when she saw it, and then asked something in a low voice in her daughter's ear, which made Sophia's face turn red instantly.

  David didn't want to eavesdrop, but his current perception ability is too strong. It's useless to lower his voice at such a short distance.

   "During the time you were in Winter City, did David treat you..."

"No."

"Really?"

   "Really!"

   "Does this David not like our Sophia?"

"Mother…"

  David carefully looked at the fruit in front of him, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Soon, Her Royal Highness Queen Rosie Stewart finished greeting her daughter, and she was sure that her daughter did not suffer in Winter City and was living happily. It looks much pleasing to the eye.

   "I arrived at the capital so quickly, the Earl of Glamorgan had a hard journey, right?"

  As soon as the queen finished speaking, Sophia leaned into her mother's ear and began to explain.

  After hearing Sophia's words, Rosie looked very surprised, unable to imagine what the so-called giant metal bird looked like? And how did it take less than half a day to fly from the edge of the northern plain to the capital of Tilan Kingdom?

  Sofia began to describe all kinds of novelties in Winter City to her mother. Queen Rosie's face was full of wonder, and David continued to quietly install sculptures beside her.

   This state was maintained until the arrival of His Majesty King Abelson.

  Simple greetings and greetings, followed by greetings between father and daughter, David continued to act as a sculpture.

   It wasn't until I watched the same process again that His Majesty the King remembered that David was still sitting next to him!

   "The Earl of Glamorgan came very quickly."

  No matter what the reason is, David, the most remote lord of the Kingdom of Tilan, arrived in such a short time after his summoning order was issued. Of course, the king would be very happy.

No matter how many magical things and unexplainable secrets there are in Winter City, as far as David Glamorgan's current attitude is concerned, the newly promoted Earl has shown great respect for the Kingdom of Tilan and his Majesty the King. enough respect.

It's not in vain to send his precious daughter to Winter City. Abelson was in a good mood, and directly invited David to stay for lunch. After a brief chat with Sophia, he even said, "It's all my own." 'In this case.

   Abelson has been king for so many years, and he has very rich experience in observing and guessing what others really think.

  Although I didn't explicitly ask my daughter what she thought, but after watching it for a while and chatting briefly, I knew that my daughter had already identified the Earl of Glamorgan.

  Sophia directly brought the Earl of Glamorgan to the Royal City, and placed the Earl of Glamorgan's men in the old house of the Stewart family. It can also be seen that the Earl did not resist marrying his daughter.

   In other words, it was only a matter of time before the Earl of Glamorgan became his son-in-law.

   In addition, like many ordinary parents, Abelson is also worried about whether his daughter has suffered a disadvantage.

   While exchanging pleasantries, he took the time to glance at his wife. The tacit understanding between the husband and wife over the years allowed him to immediately get a reassuring answer from his wife.

  At the same time, he also complained in his heart: Is my daughter so unattractive? This David didn't do anything? Didn't the intelligence show that this young man has a rich private life? Is it because it is too rich?

  He can only understand this as, although this young man is bothered, he knows the importance and what can and cannot be done.

   This made Abelson's evaluation of David even higher, and he began to consider whether to wait until the northern plains were stable enough to allow David-Earl of Glamorgan to reside in the capital?

"Is the threat of the orcs in the northern plains still serious?" Because of this idea, Abelson began to ask the orcs, wondering how far the war between the city of Winter and the orcs had progressed: "I heard that not long ago Winterfell sent almost all of its troops to fight the orcs."

  David did not report this battle to the capital, which means that Abelson got the information from other sources.

  David was not surprised by this. He even knew that there are intelligence personnel from the Capital of Tilan who want to sign up to join the Winter Knights. These people are basically on the tracking list of the Winter City intelligence department.

"The army of Winter City is completely cleaning up the orcs on the northern plain." The Winter Knights and the Quin-style fighters have been pulled out. David doesn't need to keep hiding. He can show some muscles properly .

   "Oh! After the orcs are settled, does the Earl of Glamorgan have a detailed plan for the development of the northern plain?"

   "I haven't considered the specifics, but a port city can be built in the easternmost part of the northern plain." David will definitely build a city there, and he has to build a city there just because of the estuary.

"Is it a port?" Abelson didn't know that the Winter River next to Winter City can also lead to the sea. From this, we can know that the upper layer of Winter City still has a good blockade of information. The fact that the Winter River can go to sea The matter is still only known to the high-level: "It seems that the Kingdom of Tilan can finally get its first sea port."

  The Kingdom of Tilan is an inland kingdom that has never been able to get access to the sea. It once had the opportunity to annex part of the land of the Soduruma Empire and obtain a section of coastline. Unfortunately, it was finally pushed back inland by the Soduruma Empire.

  This incident happened during the reign of Abelson's father, so he has a little obsession with the harbor.

   Then Abelson asked how many people David brought to the capital this time?

When he learned that David had brought ten Winter Knights, Abelson expressed great interest: "I heard about the strength of the Winter Knights from Sutton, and I am looking forward to seeing the representative of the Winter Knights." The scene where the Kingdom of Tiran went to war."

   "See you soon, Your Majesty."

   Abelson smiled. He realized that he still underestimated the Earl of Glamorgan. This young Earl was much smarter than many old lords.

   "Actually, I'm not that eager. It's okay to be a little later."

   "I see, Your Majesty."

  After a few simple conversations between the two, Abelson began to chat about the crops and livestock in Winter City, and asked about the special crops in Winter City?

   At this time, Sophia, who had been silent all the time, became energetic in an instant, and introduced various delicacies of Winter City to her father.

   Not only is there a high-yield crop like potatoes, but Winter City also has a crop called corn, which has an equally astonishing yield. Sophia has recently become obsessed with the staple food of rice.

  Originally, it was only a small amount of planting, mainly the crops that the lords prefer to eat, and gradually put on most people's tables, becoming one of the main foods of the people of Winter City.

   As for the fruit, because Sophia only spent one winter in Winter City, she still doesn't know how many kinds of fruits there are in Winter City, but even in winter, there is no need to worry about not having any fruit to eat in Glamorgan Castle.

  Hearing his daughter talking about the novel dishes he ate in Winter City, Abelson said with a smile: "No wonder I got fat!"

Being called fat by her parents continuously, Sophia began to wonder if she had really gained a lot of weight. She pressed her cheeks with her hands, and then pinched her waist with her hands, as if trying to see if she could pinch the flesh , but was glared at by the mother beside him, so he had to obediently put his hands away and sit there.

  After a meal, David's work reporting to His Majesty the King is over. Normally, he can leave the palace, go back to his own place, and wait for the arrival of other lords and His Majesty's next order.

  Sofia should continue to stay in the palace, but Sophia actually got up and prepared to leave, which surprised David: "You won't stay?"

   "Do you know the way to Stewart's old house?"

   Sounds reasonable, but anyone from the palace can help him guide the way, right? Even if His Majesty the King doesn't send someone, wouldn't he ask himself?

  But Sophia is willing to lead the way. Seeing the appearance of the king and queen, it seems that she is not prepared to keep her daughter.

  He said nothing, bowed to the king and queen and left the palace with Sophia.

Walking out of the main entrance of the palace, there was already a carriage waiting here. After helping Princess Sofia into the carriage, and sitting in it himself, David looked at the flushed princess, "I thought you would stay in the palace with your parents. Talk more."

   "I will stay in the capital for a while, I can come and chat with my father and mother every day!"

  Although she hasn't been officially married yet, Sophia's posture seems to have treated herself like water being thrown out.

  The carriage wobbled towards the old house of the Stewart family. David found the surrounding environment a bit familiar through the window. It seemed that it was very close to the home of Earl Sutton Stewart?

   "It's just across from my uncle's house."

  The two manors are separated by a road, which is convenient for my family to walk back and forth.

  Now it is also convenient for Earl Sutton Stewart to come and watch the excitement. When David arrived, Sutton Stewart was curiously looking at the blizzard power armor on Floyd.

After seeing David coming back, he didn't even say hello to Her Royal Highness, but walked over and patted David on the shoulder heavily: "When you were in Winter City, the heavy armor you showed wasn't the current set, right? Is there something better hidden in Winter City?"
