"An accidental injury is an accidental injury, and rewards and punishments must be clearly distinguished." The noble representative finally found an opportunity to refute and seized this point. The other nobles also showed a smile at this time.

"Really, you didn't seem to say that before. I remember the kid from the third squadron, he was able to get the title of Lord, because of the merits of the war the year before. If I remember correctly, he was able to let him Many soldiers went to die, and more people were killed by mistake. What did you say at the time."

"They said those were untouchables, and it is an honor to die for the nobility," a nearby officer said loudly.

The incident at that time made them very angry, but there was nothing to do. This is because the imperial laws and noble codes indeed stipulate this.

For the power and glory of the nobility, there are many regulations in this regard. But at that time, taking the elite of the army to die, they would not accept this kind of thing.

"That incident was just an accident at the time."

The city lord sneered: "Accident? Whether it is an accident or not, rewards and punishments must be clearly distinguished, right? He was not a nobleman at the time. What kind of punishment should be imposed according to the law at the time."

"No, although he is not a nobleman, he is the heir to the nobleman, unlike a commoner."

"Then Lord Du You, he is already a nobleman and has the title of lord."

The two sides fought **** reason and made no concessions. This is no longer the relationship between reward and punishment, it has become a battle between the authority of the city lord and the authority of these nobles.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this for the time being, after all, it is a matter between aristocrats and ordinary people. What about those ordinary people, we don't care." Suddenly, an elderly nobleman said.

The other nobles' eyes widened and looked incredible. How could this guy betrayed?

But the next moment, the elderly nobleman pointed to a picture and said: "Don't move, go a little ahead, this is it." Suddenly, the person next to him followed his words, and the control picture stopped.

The elderly nobleman said: "Never mind the civilians. Look at this, this is the one who was injured by mistake. This is not a commoner. If I remember correctly, he is the son of Viscount Rulor. You see, his leg was injured by mistake. Up."

The nobles' eyes lit up, yes, that guy's leg was accidentally injured by a holy light arrow. However, in the next picture, it was this wounded person who directly commanded his guard to run away behind his back, ignoring that he was still fighting at this time. The style of other people around him is totally different, which has attracted a lot of contempt.

The nobles also feel very shameless, but at this time, they cannot give up arguing.

"Wait, does Viscount Rulor still have this son? I remember he seems to have only two sons, and this is not one of them." Suddenly, a senior military official said in confusion.

The face of the elderly noble changed slightly, and he said with some embarrassment: "Not a direct line, but an illegitimate child. But anyway, this is also the son of the Viscount. It's unreasonable to accidentally hurt him.

"Huh, it turned out to be just an illegitimate child, but there are provisions in the noble law. An illegitimate child does not have the right to inherit, and is not recognized by the nobles. How can this be said to be born by the nobles."

Now the city lord began to talk about the matter with the noble code. No matter what time it is, as long as it is good for you, you should talk about it. If it is not good for you, you must refute it to the end. This is the style of the nobleman.

"By the way, there is also the matter of this guy escaping, and we must be investigated."

The city lord said without hesitation, in any case, the city lord is also an earl, and he is also a real power earl, not a mere viscount. Not to mention, this is just an illegitimate child.

"But he is injured. It is normal to retreat if he is injured."

"What's the situation? Others are also injured. Why didn't he retreat, so he is different? Besides, if he wants to retreat, he will retreat. Why should other people take it away, reducing an important combat effectiveness." That person It's his subordinates, but it's not wrong to reduce one combat power on the battlefield.

"What I'm talking about now is not the issue of escape, but the issue of accidental injury. A noble's child, even if it is an illegitimate child, cannot be accidentally injured. It must be resolved in the manner of the aristocracy."

The topic of discussion between the two sides is really getting more and more strange. However, this is not a problem related to the development of White Rock City after all. The city lord did not hesitate to argue, trying to vent all the anger he had just received. As the two sides argued, the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger.

Even afterwards, I didn't even know where this topic had deviated. The two sides are just trying to overwhelm each other, not discussing Du You's reward. Time gradually passed, and finally, there were still senior military officials who couldn't stand it anymore. They are wasting time like this, it is better to do some business.

In the end, both sides took a step back and finally settled the matter.

Du You rested at home for a day, and at noon the next day, someone finally came to Du You.

"Lord Du You, Lord City Lord wants you to go there." Du You nodded slightly, knowing that his reward was finally down. Du You is not very demanding, as long as he has territorial authority.

Following the attendant all the way to the City Lord's Mansion, this attendant is not a herald of the military, but a noble attendant.

Because this time it was for meritorious rewards, and Du You was not a member of the military, so he could not be promoted, only the status of the nobility. UU Reading does different things, so the people sent out are also different.

Du You saw the city lord Duka for the first time, and also saw the dazzling level 30 label on the city lord's head.

Unexpectedly, the city lord is still a third-tier peak, and I don't know when he will be able to break through to fourth-tier. No wonder he can suppress everything in White Rock City and become the strongest guarding White Rock City.

Seeing Du You's arrival, the city lord nodded very satisfied: "Yes, yes, come and sit here. We have already seen your contribution. But since you are a civilian, the resistance is relatively high and the reward will be discounted. Don't Mind."

Du You was taken aback for a moment, and then he basically wanted to understand that he was not his own, and of course the nobles did not want outsiders to improve their status.

"I understand that I will continue to work hard to prove myself."

The answer was quite satisfactory, and the city lord was also very satisfied with Du You's knowledge of the current affairs.

"It doesn't matter. There will be opportunities in the future. I believe your strength can do it. After our discussion, there are two choices for rewarding you. How do you choose to make your own decision."
