Looking at Chen Heng, who was covered in blood and reeking of blood, Baron Myler's heart trembled, and some of the thoughts he had hidden in his heart were dispelled.
As such, just as Chen Heng had thought, he did not have good intentions towards the things that Chen Heng had brought.
However, after seeing Chen Heng's performance, he dispelled those thoughts.
The group of bandits in front of him had no less than 200 people, and their strength was comparable to that of an ordinary lord's guard.
However, even with this level of strength, they had been easily defeated by Chen Heng. From the scene, it seemed like they had been slaughtered.
This was a blatant threat of the butcher's knife.
To be honest, although his strength was much stronger than this group of bandits, he might not be much better.
If they really fought, he would most likely end up like these bandits, becoming cold corpses.
Thinking to there, his attitude became cautious, and he looked at Chen Heng with a cautious expression.
However, what made him feel at ease was that Chen Heng did not seem difficult to get along with at all.
After going through a battle, he was covered in blood and looked incredibly cold. However, he was very polite, much better than Baron Kaisen's other child.
Thinking about Baron Kaisen's other child, Baron Myler could not help but ask, "Why didn't Ormando come this time?"
After what had happened, Ormando had become quite famous among the nearby rulers.
Because of this, Baron Myler remembered him. However, it was clear that he did not have a good impression of him.
He had said this to ease the atmosphere, but after hearing his words, Chen Heng and Baron Kaisen both fell silent.
Baron Myler could not help but feel quite confused. Only after hearing about what had happened did he know that Ormando had died in battle.
Immediately, he felt quite startled and felt quite startled.
He instinctively looked at Chen Heng before quickly lowering his head.
Following this, his expression returned to normal and he warmly invited Baron Kaisen and Chen Heng to his residence.
Because of what had happened to Ormando, Chen Heng and Baron Kaisen only stayed at his residence for a day. After coming to an agreement, they left.
Following this, they returned to their own territory.
Time passed slowly.
Just as Chen Heng had expected, after news of that battle spread, the surrounding rulers became much more well-behaved.
Through this battle, Chen Heng had successfully displayed his martial strength.
The surrounding lords were also shocked, and they could not help but suppress the bad thoughts in their hearts.
Following this, batches of goods and rations were continuously transported out of the various lords' warehouses.
In Chen Heng's hands, the food would be transported to a place by land and then transported by water to his stronghold in the north.
This was a very complicated journey that involved many nodes.
Grasping this path was Chen Heng's greatest advantage.
With him overseeing the south, everything in the surroundings developed in an orderly manner. Although there were always some accidents along the way, the overall plan was carried out according to the previous plan.
After the initial cooperation, he reached a preliminary agreement with the various lords of the south.
Through his own channels, Chen Heng provided large amounts of resources from the northern desert and distributed them to the rulers.
The rulers had to use rations to exchange for these resources.
At this moment, these agreements were only in the preliminary stages, but as trade continued to develop and the various lords benefited from this trade, they would slowly become more complete and solid.
As Chen Heng continued to work towards his goal, a letter from the Kutu Royal City arrived.
"A letter from Verna?"
Within the spacious room, looking at the letter in his hand, Chen Heng smiled as he stretched out his hand and opened the letter.
"Dear Mr. Kaelin …
"… Just like you, I miss you very much at home. I hope and look forward to our next meeting."
"I hope that you can have a good time at home, and I hope that you can come back as soon as possible …"
.....
After reading through the letter, Chen Heng gave a slight smile and carefully put the letter to the side.
From the looks of it, his previous efforts had already paid off.
Verna evidently had a good impression of him.
This was quite important.
Although in the aristocratic circle, in most cases, parents had the right to decide their children's marriage, their own wishes were also an important criterion.
This was especially so for a situation like Verna's.
From what Chen Heng could see, perhaps because of her own experiences, Princess Olivia greatly doted on Verna and was willing to listen to Verna's wishes in many ways.
In such a situation, Verna's own wishes were quite important.
At the very least, if Verna strongly disliked it, Princess Olivia most likely would not allow her to marry that person.
Even if that person had a high status, it would still be the same.
This was different from most people.
As such, Chen Heng having a good impression of Verna was the first step.
As for the rest, it was up to Princess Olivia and the Queen to agree.
For a princess of the royal family, her marriage, in theory, should be decided by her father, the current King.
However, from what Chen Heng understood, this King seemed to have some sort of problem, and he spent most of his time in a coma. He rarely woke up in a year.
As such, most of the matters in the royal palace were decided by Princess Olivia and Princess Verna's mother, the Queen.
Moreover, Kutu placed great importance on Princess Olivia's opinion.
As such, Chen Heng's next goal was to take care of Princess Olivia.
This matter could be said to be difficult, but it could also be said to be simple.
The difficult part was how to get Princess Olivia to bring it up herself.
This was because with Princess Olivia's suspicious personality, if he took too much initiative, it would make her wary and think that he had ulterior motives.
When that time came, there would be many twists and turns.
As such, if he wanted to make this happen, he could not make it too obvious. It would be best if she took the initiative to bring it up.
Sitting in his room, Chen Heng silently thought to himself.
After a while, he picked up a pen and paper and started to write a letter to Verna.
Chen Heng was quite familiar with this.
After a while, he finished writing the letter and carefully wrapped it up before handing it to a servant.
"Please deliver it to Miss Verna."
