Chapter 1142: Three Commands
"That's true!"
In the quiet study, I suddenly remembered a sigh full of mixed emotions.
With the matter of the World Passage confirmed, Leng Ke was completely annihilated with a trace of luck, and from now on, he will strengthen his belief and go all out to defend against the possible invasion of the spirit world.
"Someone ...... coming"
"Squeak. The closed door was pushed open by the guards waiting outside.
"Your Majesty. ”
"You quickly go to the manor outside the city, and invite Your Excellency Lin Fei to the palace, and say that I have something important to ask him to come and discuss. ”
"Yes. ”
The guard received the order and strode out of the study......
After the guards left, Leng Ke sat on the chair, leaning back on the back of the chair, closing his eyes and thinking deeply, there was no sound in the study, and the needle drop could be heard.
............
The guards left the palace on Pegasus and headed for the west gate of the capital.
Pegasus was extremely fast, and in about ten minutes, the guard arrived at the manor located outside the 'capital'.
Today's weather is good, with golden sunshine shining all over the land.
Because the elven servants in the manor no longer worry that they would be fired by their new employers, they all seemed very happy and energetic today, and they worked harder than before.
At the gate of Lin Fei's mansion, Luqi, the elf maid who was a little timid yesterday, was seriously watering the various flowers in the flower beds on both sides of the gate.
"Whew. ”
A gust of wind suddenly appeared, blowing the flowers in the flower bed to one side.
"Bang. ”
There was a dull sound behind her, and Luki looked back to see that it was the palace guards.
The guard, who jumped off the flying horse, looked at the maid of the manor, and then said, "Take me to your master." ”
"Old ...... The owner he was not at home. The word master almost blurted out, and Luqi, who changed her words in time when the words came to her mouth, reflected on herself.
"Boss?" The guard was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted that the boss that the maid in front of him was the one he was looking for, His Excellency Lin Fei.
"Away from home, where did he go?"
"I don't know. ”
"Does anyone know where he went?"
“...... I, I don't know. ”
"When he went out, did he explain when he would come back?"
“...... I...... I do not know. ”
Looking at the maid in front of him, who didn't know anything, the guard's blood pressure rose rapidly.
"Is your butler at home?"
"Yes. ”
"Where is he?"
"Check the accounts in the bookkeeper. ”
"Take me to him. ”
"Uh-huh, please come with me. ”
The guard, whose blood pressure was rising, was relieved this time, and he followed Luqi and walked towards the courtyard of the mansion......
............
About half an hour passed, and the guards who had left to invite Lin Fei to come to the palace came back.
"What did you say?"
"Your Majesty, that Your Excellency Lin Fei is not in the manor, I asked his housekeeper, and the other party told me that His Excellency Lin Fei left the manor last night and will take about three days to return. ”
"Huh......" Leng Ke raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, and after a moment's thought, he instructed the guards again, "Remember the matter of the World Passage and keep it tight-lipped except for the ministers of the Cabinet, don't disclose it to anyone else." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. "The king's gag order, how dare the guards disobey.
"Wait a minute, you go to the manor of His Excellency Lin Fei outside the city, and when he comes back, you will immediately invite him to meet me. Ling Ke was worried that Lin Fei would miss it again when he came back, so he decided to send someone directly to Lin Fei's house to squat.
As soon as the order was given to the guards, several cabinet ministers had already arrived at the door of the study, waiting for Ling Ke to summon them.
"Go down! Remember, as soon as His Excellency Lin Fei comes back, you will immediately invite him to see me. Leng Ke emphasized.
"Yes, Your Majesty. The guard nodded, and left the study.
After the guards left, Leng Ke said to the cabinet ministers waiting at the door, "Come in!"
The cabinet ministers who came to the study to discuss important matters had puffy bags under their eyes and dark circles under their eyes, and it seemed that they hadn't slept all night after learning about the World Passage last night, just like Ling Ke.
"Your Majesty, yesterday the chief of the guard took someone to verify the authenticity of the world passage, and now a lot of time has passed, and I don't know if there is any news from the chief of the guard. The leading cabinet minister asked.
Leng Ke nodded, and said to his courtiers with a solemn face, "The world passage that the visitor from the other world said has been found. ”
"There really is!"
"Now we're going to get ready for battle. ”
"According to the time when the envoy leaves, he will be able to enter and arrive in his 'capital' by the evening of the day after tomorrow at the latest, and I don't know if the Black Elves will join us in the same way. ”
After receiving the exact answer, the Cabinet Ministers' faces changed in unison, and then they quickly adjusted their state and began to continue the plan they had discussed yesterday.
After a long day of negotiations, the King and the Cabinet Ministers unanimously decided.
The first step, before receiving an answer from the Black Elves, sent a large army to build a simple line of defense at the World Passage found in the border forest.
The second step is to order troops to be stationed in various places, send reconnaissance teams, and conduct a carpet search of their own defense areas to find a possible second world passage.
The third step, the recruitment order, recruits soldiers of appropriate age nationwide, with a number of 100,000.
As soon as the three orders were issued, they immediately aroused a huge amount of discussion.
The first two orders are okay, but ordinary people don't know about them, mainly the third order.
The recruitment order recruited 100,000 school-age youths as soldiers, such a huge number was the first time in the White Elf Kingdom in nearly a hundred years.
The people under the rule of Leng Ke were talking, and everyone was speculating that His Majesty, who had succeeded to the throne a hundred years ago, had never used a sword soldier, and now he was making such a big move, was he preparing to crusade against the strange beasts of the northern wasteland?
............
The white elves of the elven world are in full swing preparing for war, and the king is eagerly waiting in the palace when the visitor from the other world who brought them news appears again.
Blue Star, who doesn't know how far away, the visitor from the other world is having dinner with his two friends in his own world.
"It's so spicy!" Wang Xiaoru's forehead oozed beads of sweat, and she fanned her lips with her hand, which were red by chili peppers.
Lin Fei took out a piece of white radish from the hot pot and put it in his bowl, he smiled at Wang Xiaoru and said, "Xiaoru, you can't eat spicy, so don't try the super spicy soup base here." ”
"Hmm. Wang Ru picked up the chopsticks, chose the non-spicy side of the mandarin duck pot, and fished out a prawn from it.
Zhou Yue, who ate the spicy soup base throughout the whole process, did not change color, and felt that there was no one present who could fight, so she said majestically, "Eating hot pot in summer has a different taste in my heart." ”
"It's just a hot pot, don't be crepe......" Lin Fei complained.
