Chapter 1470 City Lord
If it hadn't been for the boy from the same family as the city lord to tell the whole thing about it in a vigorous manner.
Maybe this case is really what Jack thought, and he completely suppressed it at the step of the city lord.
And this matter will be known by everyone, the source is because the city lord was promoted too fast and showed his sharpness too much.
As a non-heir to the family title.
They are usually sent to the corners of various towns or territories by the elders of the family, allowing them to expand their territories.
The city lord of York City is one of them.
His mother was a not-so-high-status lover next to the noble lord.
As a son who exists like an illegitimate child, of course, after he becomes an adult, he will not be sent to any good place or get any good job.
When the city lord came to Yorktown, oh, this town could only be called Yorktown at that time.
It was the city lord who tried every means to make the city expand slowly and become bigger, and finally became a city-state.
It is also because of this overly outstanding ability and overly ostentatious reputation.Let the master's house be the place where it happened to him.
After the other party actually had contact with the heads of many great nobles, and had an inexplicable deep friendship.
The real head of the York city lord, that is, his eldest brother, felt that he could no longer be allowed to go on like this.
So over the years, he has been sending his men to collect information about the city lord's younger brother in York City.
It's just that because I don't know what's hidden, the collection of these information still has some difficulties.
Not only did his good brother expand the entire city nearly tenfold, but it was also said that he was trying to return to the capital city to get an important job in the national cabinet.
Such a thing, would his big brother let it happen?
The strong sense of crisis made the eldest brother focus on the illegitimate child. He really didn't expect that the illegitimate child could return to the master's sight in various ways.
And so quickly that other nobles have begun to pay attention.
Everyone is talking about the ability of this illegitimate child, and his legendary rate of appreciation.
Why didn't such a good seedling stay in the capital city?
Even if it is helping the family to manage the business, is it more useful than leaving it outside?
So he turned his attention to the original choice of this noble family. Now the head of the family seems very mediocre and incompetent in the eyes of outsiders.
"Oh, let me just say, that old gentleman may have made a very poor choice."
"I have never seen a family that treats illegitimate children and offspring so harshly."
"No way, I heard that his original wife is also from a noble family. She can allow her husband to have several lovers, but the children born of the lovers will not be allowed to appear in the main house."
"When the lord of York City was an illegitimate child, he didn't even go into the building of the lord's house. He was just a child who didn't grow up under his father's nose.
If it were you, how would you know whether his ability is high or low?
It can only be said that this city lord is really very lucky. He appeared in front of everyone through his own efforts. His achievements cannot be ignored by everyone. It is he who has achieved himself. "
The eldest brother of the city lord of York City has heard too many words like this, and even the people around him, that is, those whose family is attached to him, have begun to have some doubts and criticisms.
This is definitely not a good phenomenon, only one voice needs to be heard in a family.
If he cannot be his own help, then there is no need for him to exist.
Therefore, the eldest brother first sent his subordinates to make private contact with the illegitimate son who was far away in York City.
Only at this time, the city lord of York City had grown to a certain extent, and he had an inseparable and close relationship with several noble families with special hobbies.
At this time, he was no longer afraid of his elder brother, the power of his own family.
The city lord of York City believes that his current achievements have nothing to do with his family, and the other party has not given him any help, and may even become a dragging existence.
So he simply rejected the olive branch thrown by the other party.
Not only that, he also asked the eldest brother's confidant to bring a word to the master's family.
"It's better for us not to interfere with each other. Of course, if there is a problem in the family, you can ask him to come to me. Since we still have a little blood relationship, maybe I will help. Just my big brother."
"Of course, at that time, more people may know that this family cannot be supported by orthodoxy alone, don't you think?"
The lord of York City vented all his unhappiness of being ignored and treated indifferently for many years.
In his opinion, this is a manifestation of his unwillingness to have too much contact with the former home.
But after his elder brother's relatives brought the words back to the capital, the elder brother who heard the words thought it was true.His half-brother's provocation to him, and a silent declaration of war.
The eldest brother of the city lord of York City was furious.
As others have seen, he is the result of a political marriage between two great nobles.
His mediocre performance is just to maintain stability, and this empire does not need an overly powerful nobleman to appear.
Their family is already very prosperous, and they will be feared by the king in a little while.
He thought that the provocation of the Lord of York to him was probably also a temptation to think that he would not do anything.
The king above is even willing to see their brothers fight each other.
The great nobles with internal instability are the real good nobles.
Such brothers are uneasy for their family.
If the other party is only staying in York City, then no matter how much he tosses, it will be irrelevant.
But he is trying to return to the mainstream nobles, and to take up the position given to him by the king, which is still a position of real power... Then he will definitely affect the status of the entire family in the empire and various industries related to the family.
Such a brother is not desirable.
He can disrespect the patriarch, he can jump up and down outside, but he must not touch the core interests of the family and the noble status of the family in the empire.
"Find a way to get him down, this person can't stay."
"Find out why he has a relationship with these great nobles, and it seems that the relationship is still very close."
