Chapter 89 The History of the Bluebird Family
“Russell, you have become handsome again. If you work harder, you can catch up with me!” Mel Ujiuka said cheerfully in the coach’s tent.
Baron Roman and his eldest brother Roland warmly entertained Major Yujiuhua there, while Russell chatted with his cousin Mel Yujiuhua.
“Don’t worry, I’m still working hard to become handsome.” Russell smiled.
In my memory, my predecessor had a very good relationship with my cousin, even better than with my brothers and sisters.
This is probably because Russell is too handsome and does not fit in with the Fluorescent Mushroom family, but he can fit in with the Yujiuka family, which is full of handsome boys and beauties. Moreover, Cousin Mel is an only child and has no biological siblings, so he regards Russell as his biological brother.
“I thought you would have to wait two years before going to the snowfield, but I didn’t expect you to come here with the Knights this year.”
“Come here early to make some money. Everything in the territory costs money.”
“Haha, you are beginning to understand how difficult it is for a lord.”
“Yeah, it’s not easy for my small manor. It’s really not easy to expand to the entire Youguang River Valley and even the mouth of Sancha River.” Russell felt deeply about this. He was a time traveler, but he was just a mediocre person. time traveler.
In my previous life on earth, I worked as a social animal, and now I am still learning through exploration as to my identity as a lord.
“Whether it is easy or not, Russell, as someone who has experienced it, I have to tell you that carpe diem is the true meaning of life.” Cousin Mel glanced at his father and uncle who were chatting happily, and murmured in a low voice, “You turn around first Don’t go back to Youguang Valley and go to Bluebird Castle with me for a while.”
Glancing back at his father, Cousin Mel chuckled and said, “I’ll take you to see the world. There are many ladies and ladies at the mouth of the Sancha River.”
Russell narrowed his eyes and said, “Cousin, you have to take it easy. I see some dark circles under your eyes. You’re in serious trouble.”
“Bullshit.” Cousin Mel said with a smile, “I keep myself clean, okay. I won’t lose my virginity to anyone unless we are in love.”
“Losing your virginity to a human, are you talking human language?”
“That’s the truth. Those ladies are surrounding me like wolves, talking sweet words, just to get my body. In such an environment, especially handsome ones like us, we really need to learn to protect ourselves.” Cousin Mel was filled with emotion.
“I’ve never experienced it.”
“So come and stay at Bluebird Castle for a while, and I’ll show you how it feels.”
“Not this time. There are still a lot of affairs waiting for me in the territory.” Russell shook his head, but his heart was a little throbbing. “By the way, when will grandpa return to Sanchahekou, and the Elders Council will be disbanded, right?”
“Just one or two months. Kunstein has already ascended the throne. There is no point in going against this kid. My father wrote several letters to persuade grandpa… Anyway, grandpa promised to come back as soon as possible.”
“Then when grandpa comes back to celebrate his birthday, I will come to Bluebird Castle to stay for a few days.”
“Not for a few days, at least for a month!”
“It depends on the situation. If the territory can be separated, I will live here for a month.” Russell agreed.
Cousin Mel said happily: “Okay, I will write to you as soon as grandpa comes back!”
Seeing his cheerful look, Russell couldn’t help but feel some sympathy. Although he lived in a large aristocratic family, with rich clothes, fine food, and beautiful horses, but without brothers and sisters, he would still be lonely and lack companionship.
In total, Mel is three years older than Russell and is only Russell’s second cousin.
Russell also has an older cousin, but he is not born to Uncle Major, but to his aunt Melinda Yujiuhua. His name is Cessel – he does not have a noble surname. His uncle Cecil is just a lord, an ordinary person. Family birth.
Grandfather, Earl of Flying Rose, Merlin Ujiuka, gave birth to two girls and one boy.
Seth Luo and his wife gave birth to a boy and a daughter, Russell’s eldest cousin Seth and his eldest cousin Seth Wei who were the same age.
The eldest uncle, Major Ujiuka, married the princess of the Shadowflame family, Kunna Shadowflame, the aunt of the current Grand Duke, and gave birth to his only son, Mel Ujiuka.
Then there is Russell’s mother, Meryl Yujiuhua, who gave birth to two boys and two girls after marrying Roman Fluorescent, Baron of Netherlight.
So Mel doesn’t have any biological brothers or sisters, but she does have quite a few cousins.
Even Grand Duke Kunstan Shadowflame is his cousin.
But among all the cousins, Russell was the only one who had a good relationship with him, probably because they were both handsome.
After all, birds of a feather flock together, and good-looking people like to hang out with good-looking people (just like Lao Bai writes a book and only subscribes to handsome guys and beauties).
Talk about the past when you were a child and imagine a bright future.
It was noon in a flash.
In this simple and shabby cold spring spot, the nobles from the two territories all crowded into Baron Roman’s coach tent, eating simple food, drinking high-concentration spirits, and having a lively dinner.
“Lord Viscount, let me propose a toast to you!” Atlas stood up and toasted, “If Lord Count hadn’t helped me back then, maybe I wouldn’t have been able to come back from the battlefield, and I wouldn’t have been able to enjoy the joyful drinking I have today. scene!”
Major Ujiuka smiled and drank the wine: “Lord Atlas, we can still fight side by side for a long time.”
“Yes, that’s what the Viscount said!” Many people echoed.
Viscount is a special title. It is a lifelong title and cannot be hereditary. It is usually a reward for palace officials, or for some scholars and big businessmen who have made significant contributions.
The noble titles of the Grand Duchy of Shadow Flame were inherited from the Yaoguang Empire, or the titles of many countries in the entire Longmian Continent all followed the title system of the Yaoguang Empire.
Below the king, only dukes, earls, and barons have hereditary and replaceable titles and have their own fiefs.
Marquis, Viscount, and Lord are all lifelong titles.
Of course, whether it is a hereditary or a lifelong title, there is a strict hierarchy – duke, marquis, uncle, son, male, honor. However, vassals are only loyal to the lord, and the territory is highly autonomous.
As an independent grand duchy, the Duke of Shadow Flame has the highest title, so there are only two hereditary and replaceable titles: earl and baron.
Usually, a baron would give his heir a title of lord, so that the heir could participate in the management of the territory.
In the same way, the earl will also give his heir the title of viscount.
Russell’s grandfather, Merlin Yujiuhua, Earl of Flotilla, is still in good health, so Uncle Major can naturally only socialize with the title of viscount – fortunately, the title of viscount is enough, and it is one level higher than the title of baron.
“By the way, Lord Viscount, isn’t Your Excellency Medikalen here?” Lord Sally asked curiously.
Uncle Major shook his head and said, “My wife is going to the Gravel Territory as a guest, and I asked Lord Medicalun to escort her there.”
“I see.”
