King of German Mercenaries

Marin intends to talk to his family about the inheritance of the East Frisian Country. Just as Marin remembers, he has not invited his younger siblings to play in his territory.

At first, because of the outbreak of the war, Marin did not dare to invite his family to come to the theater of Texel Island to play. Now that the fighting has subsided, and the rival Friesland Republic no longer exists, of course there is no danger.

Therefore, Marin decided to invite the whole family to visit his castle, and discuss the issue of the inheritance of the counties of East Frisian by the way. In addition, the ancient documents collected by Mrs. Mary must also be brought here. Otherwise, how can Marin imitate the forgery?

It is not difficult to invite the whole family to play, but it is a little difficult to let Mrs. Mary carry the papers by herself. Because Mrs. Mary kept those parchments like treasures. Mrs. Mary would never take it out without a proper reason. But Marin didn't want to talk about this matter at Hoffman Manor. For this reason, Marin decided to go out in person and steal it when Mrs. Mary was not paying attention. Anyway, Marin knew where the documents were hidden. The former Marin also secretly hid the key to Mrs. Mary's treasure chest.

After the decision was made, Marin said goodbye to Angela and prepared to go back to pick up his family. Before leaving, Kohler suddenly came to report that he had found a suitable identity for Angela. However, the situation is a little more complicated and requires Marin to make the decision in person...

It turned out that Marin had previously instructed Kohler to find an ordinary official knight family and let Angela be temporarily attached under the name of Hannah, so as to prove Angela's identity.

After Kohler received the order, he naturally worked hard to do it and sent a lot of people out to inquire. Coincidentally, there is a bankrupt titled knight in the county of Bentheim in the southeast of the Netherlands. This bankruptcy knight named Louis Nelson sold his manor a few years ago because he was addicted to gambling. Then, the family lived in a hut in the forest and kept away from the outside world for a long time. In fact, if they don't come out, they also mean to avoid gambling debts.

Coincidentally, Nelson Knight had a second daughter named Hannah, who was also 15 years old. After getting sick this year, she died because she had no money for treatment. However, Hannah's household registration was not cancelled.

Kohler was overjoyed when he found out, so he led someone to find old Nelson, gave him 50 gold coins, and asked his family to insist that Angela was their second daughter Hannah Nelson.

But old Nelson quit because he owed him a gambling debt of 60 gold coins. 50 gold coins, not enough to repay. So, he asked for 70 gold coins. Moreover, this product also made more demands. Because his family is so poor that they can't open the pot.

Old Nelson originally had two sons and two daughters, but after the disaster, the eldest son and the second daughter died successively because of lack of money to see a doctor and malnutrition. Today, the old couple only has an 18-year-old eldest daughter and a 10-year-old son. Although there are only four people, their life is also very difficult, and they can hardly survive.

As a knight who has read books, the slightly wise old Nelson realized that even if the gambling debts were repaid, their family life would be unsustainable without the manor. And because the dowry could not be paid, it was basically impossible for a knight to marry her eldest daughter. Although, his eldest daughter looks pretty good. However, he was not willing to marry his eldest daughter to a commoner or a serf.

Moreover, because he is already 50 years old, he is unable to support the family again. His youngest son is only 10 years old. If there is not enough money in the future, it will be difficult to get a wife.

Not only that, because of the gambling debt, old Nelson sold all his horses and weapons and armor. Even if the younger son wants to become a knight in the future, he has no weapons or horses for training.

Therefore, some old Nelson, who was shattered, shamelessly put forward a shocking condition for Kohler-he would give his eldest daughter Tess to Marin as a personal maid...

In fact, the so-called personal maid basically means to be Marin's lover. A dignified knight with a title,

To give his daughter as a mistress shows how miserable Old Nelson is. You know, Tess's background is enough to marry a titled knight, but their family can't afford a dowry. The marriage of daughters among nobles is very particular about dowry. If the dowry is generous, even if you are a widow, someone will ask for it. For example, Anne of Brittany, after the death of Charles VIII, for her dowry, the Duchy of Brittany, Louis XII resolutely broke the original engagement and married this widow's sister-in-law...

But the knights are the most respectable or honorable group in Europe. If Old Nelson did this, basically drinking alcohol was extremely shameless.

Old Nelson, though, had Old Nelson's ideas. He believed that if the eldest daughter became Marin's mistress, then Marin would definitely take care of his younger son Louis. With the care of my cheap brother-in-law Marin, I don't have to worry about not being able to marry a daughter-in-law in the future...

Kohler was speechless, but he couldn't make a decision. So he reported the news to Marin and let Marin decide...

Marin was also stunned when he heard this request from old Nelson...

In the past, those who acted as mistresses of nobles were basically commoners, and few noble girls were mistresses for others. Unless it is a super boss like a king or a duke, only noble girls are willing to be their mistresses.

Today, Marin is only a small baron, someone sent his daughter over to be his mistress, and taught him how not to be shocked?

However, Marin is now anxious to arrange legal status for Angela, because Angela is too important to him. Since it happened to have such an opportunity, Marin decided to agree first. Then, Marin built several houses (adobe houses) on the newly reclaimed Freeland Island, plus 10 Ugrams (120 acres) of arable land, and presented them to Old Nelson. Moreover, he helped Old Nelson pay off his gambling debt and gave him 50 more gold coins.

In this regard, the old Nelson is extremely satisfied. Then, his eldest daughter, Tess Nelson, was also sent to Marin...

Tess. Nelson is not low, 1.7 meters. Because she comes from a knight family, her ancestral genes are not short. In addition, a few years ago, when the family was not in the middle, the conditions at home were not bad, so the nutrition was sufficient, and the skin was very fair.

However, Tess may have suffered a lot in the past few years, and there are a lot of calluses on her palms, which seem to have been hardened by work.

In terms of looks, Tess is no match for Angela who looks sweet. However, it is not bad, and the appearance is considered to be above average. The point is, Tess is very strong. The pair on the chest are not small bean buns like Angela, but big steamed buns...

Tess already knew her own destiny, and her father, old Nelson, gave him the instructions to use all means, climb into Marin's bed, and then find a way to help her brother, little Louis.

10-year-old little Louis, although born in a family of knights. But because the family just happened to be in the middle of the past few years, little Louis had a very bad life. Many times, he had to accompany his family to starve. Therefore, little Louis looks sallow and thin. Before Tess left the house, old Nelson knelt down for Tess and begged her to make a little sacrifice to keep her brother alive. Moreover, being the lover of an aristocrat, even though it has a bad reputation, is much better than when the whole family hid in the forest and starved. At least, in material terms...

Looking at the yellow-faced and thin younger brother, wearing the ragged clothes full of patches only worn by poor children, and often crying from hunger... Tess gritted her teeth and made up her mind, determined to make sacrifices for this family...

After seeing Marin, Tess, who was stunned and stunned, jumped straight at him, intending to push Marin in the opposite direction, which startled Marin:

"what are you doing?"

"Dad said that he wanted me to be your lover, to be your lover, didn't he want to throw himself into your arms?" Tess said suspiciously. She had read knight novels before, and many ladies took the initiative to throw their arms around... Well, Tess did the same, but the lady was Ruyan Throwing in the Forest, she was hungry...

Marin couldn't help laughing, he accepted old Nelson's conditions, just to get Angela's identity, not to make Tess his mistress. In his plan, he just let Tess work as a maid first. In the future, when the living conditions of the Nelson family are better, they regret this decision and send Tess away.

So Marin said to Tess:

"Tess, you're too proactive, not ladylike enough. You know, I prefer ladies..."

"Lady?" Tess blinked suspiciously. A knight family like her is more likely to produce violent women than ladies. Only the families of the great aristocrats and literati will produce more ladies.

"Well, don't be so proactive..."

"Oh, just waiting for you to pounce on me? Well, come and pounce on me!" Tess said innocently, then closed her eyes, as if waiting for Marin to pounce violently...

"Pfft—" Marin almost vomited blood. Nima, in this girl's eyes, is "pushing" between men and women? Are you a tiger?

Marin took a long sigh of relief before saying to the girl in embarrassment:

"What kind of mess are you thinking about? Work for me first! When you're more honest, I'll pounce on you again - ahhh, I care about you..." Marin found that he was being led astray by this upright girl ...

"Oh, I'm waiting for you to pounce on me..." The straight girl went to clean the house. After several years of poverty, the eldest lady of the former knight's family has become accustomed to doing housework.

"By the way, remember to go to the bathroom in the castle to take a bath, there is a special maid who will wait for you to take a bath..." There are several bathrooms in the castle, and maids are also equipped to serve you. Of course, those maids were waiting for Miss Angela to take a bath, but they could also help Tess wash, as long as they didn't use the same tub and bathroom. Anyway, 5 bathrooms were repaired in the castle...

Marin remembered that just now, this girl seemed a little rancid, maybe she hadn't bathed for a long time - this filthy medieval...

Unexpectedly, the upright girl turned her head and said to Marin with a serious face:

"Lord Baron, Tess is a devout believer, try not to take a bath!" After speaking, he drew a cross on the big bun on his chest...

Marin was choked again, but he immediately threatened:

"It's too stinky not to take a bath, stinky girl, I don't like to pounce..." After speaking, Marin wanted to slap himself a few times, Nima, her IQ was lowered by this girl...

"Oh, that's it... Well, I'm going to take a bath..." Then, in order to complete the so-called task, this girl was determined not to be afraid of sacrifice, and went to take a bath...

...

Although this farce was taken lightly, Angela's identity problem was finally settled. With an identity, Marin can bring Angela to appear in front of people. And, you can also marry the little girl. Therefore, Marin was also relieved.

Before leaving, Marin told Schwartz and Franzberg to train the 1,250 recruits. Now that we are ready to attack Friesland, the necessary preparations are still needed. In particular, the training of new recruits is a top priority. Because when the attack on East Frisian, the two Spanish phalanxes will be the main force of the attack.

After arranging the relevant affairs, Marin took a group of guards and landed from Den Helder, one person and two horses, and rode back to Hoffman Manor...
