The mornings in the jungle are very cold, and the humidity in the forest can make people shiver with cold, and there is a fog that obscures all vision. However, if you don't care about the physical pain, the scenery is still good on the surface.

Beside a dying bonfire, Pedi and his wife, Eileen, whispered, surrounded by knights and guards to prevent anyone from disturbing them.

The water in the iron kettle on the campfire had boiled, and the evaporated water vapor struck the lid of the iron kettle with a "clang" sound, and Erin Feier took out the tools for making tea from her spatial barrier without hurrying, first a coffee table delicately carved with an ice orchid pattern, and then a simple tea set.

"The tea leaves were specially sent by General Thrandier, and the water was specially picked for you by the elven mages this morning, and the life blessing was applied by Moiraka himself. When Eileen said this, there was obvious sarcasm in her words.

Pei Di knew very well that his wife was angry now, so he could only respond to his wife's words with silence, and subconsciously moved closer to his wife, took the tea box that his wife wanted to open, looked at the giant tree pattern carved on it, and skillfully twisted the lid to slowly pour the tea leaves.

The sound of the collision between the tea leaves and the teapot was so abrupt in the silence of the two, but it was very pleasant.

"The best tea with the most wonderful spring water, I wanted to try this taste for a long time. Pedi shrugged and smiled with a lighthearted smile, "But my father taught me that there should be no too much extravagance. ”

The flower dew collected by the female elves is priced at 50 crowns a cup in the market, and it is still available in limited quantities, but it is still in short supply in the human world, and it is not used to make tea.

"The vegetation blessed by the elves is born with a strong vitality, and their combination with the natural dew, coupled with the natural power of the elves themselves, can indeed make the otherwise ordinary dew rich in life force, but that's all. "Eileen Fil seems to be deliberately belittling, she is in a terrible mood right now.

"You should keep a good mood for the sake of our children. Pedi looked up at his wife, "My decision to stay is selfish for you, but I am not only your husband, but also the Emperor of the Empire, the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces. ”

"I'm just whining in front of you. Erin Phier frowned, "Isn't that even allowed?"

Pei Di pretended to be stupid "hehe" smiled, stretched out his hand to grab a towel and lifted the boiling kettle, "bang" boiling water poured down the spout of the kettle into the teapot, the steaming boiling water turned in the teapot, countless tea leaves began to stretch out and deform, and a sweet and bitter fragrance soon filled the nasal cavity.

"It's true that there is a different sweet taste, but I don't know how it tastes. Pei Di gently shook the teapot and poured out the first brew of tea as fast as he could, and as the tea flowed, a more pronounced aroma came to his nose and directly attacked the taste buds in his mouth.

The first tea was poured on the fluttering bonfire by Peidi, and the rich water vapor and a little smoke spread through the air with the unique smell of charcoal and tea mixed with tea.

When the steam of the campfire dissipated, the cup in front of Pedi and Erin Phil was already filled with a second brew of tea, when the birds in the dense forest far away heard the sound of fluttering wings, and the cold wind interspersed through the dense jungle, Erin Phil's fingers danced slightly, and a cyan magic barrier successfully blocked the wind.

The campfire swayed gently twice to restore its calm, and Pedi glanced at his wife, silently picked up the teacup and took a sip, the familiar taste of the hot tea exploded in his mouth, and there was a pleasant sweetness in the familiar taste.

Erin Phil also held the teacup in her hand, staring at the tea, reflecting her slightly tired face, twisted and deformed in the shaking of the tea, the fragrance of tea fluttering in her nose while the mist from the tea filled her eyes.

"There should be other ways to end this war, Felder City is about to return to our hands, and we can completely lead a conventional war in Felder City..."

"My dear," Pedi interrupted his wife, "my all-out war mobilization order was sent to all regions of the empire months ago, and I made it clear in the order that the empire would not lift the state of total war as long as the undead legions existed for a day. ”

"Moreover, fighting a conventional war with the undead legion will only be eaten away by them step by step. Pedi looked down at the burning campfire, "Otherwise, why do you think the orcs and dwarves would agree to join the Confederate army and spare no effort to attack the undead legion in Cullen." ”

"My dear, after the war has been going on for so long, don't you think that the timing of the appearance of the Undead Legion is too much of a coincidence?" Elein Phier put down the teacup in her hand, she was not in the mood to taste it at all.

"The negativity brought about by the war awakens the sealed evil energy. Pedi turned her head to look at her wife, "That's the answer." ”

"Do you think it's possible?"

"Now it's not important to find out the truth, it's important to completely eliminate the undead legion. Pedi's expression slowly became serious, "You have to keep this in mind, and don't say such things again on any occasion in the future." ”

"Looks like you know something. ”

"I don't know anything. Pedi shook his head and said, "You should try this tea, you may never have a chance again." ”

Erin Feier couldn't keep up with her husband's thoughts, looking at her husband's gesture to her, she instinctively took a sip of the teacup, it tasted really good, it was originally the top tea, plus the wonderful and sweet spring, which made people who like it unforgettable.

"After you leave here, don't go back to the imperial capital yet. Pei Di glanced at the group of elven ranger soldiers who were blocked out, "Go to Suk City to have a look, after the all-out war, I ordered the nobles of Suk Plain to go to the imperial capital at the specified time, but they stayed in Suke City, hum..." ”

"Didn't the government agencies of Suker City intervene to solve it?" Erin Phier didn't want to discuss such a question at this time, so her tone was obviously impatient, "Don't those nobles know that the laws of the Empire are just as valid for them?"

"You're right, they really don't know. Pedi spilled the tea from the bottom of the teacup in his hand on the ground, "The purpose of your visit to Suk City is to let them know the laws of the Empire and the duties of the police department, but... You can't come forward directly with such a thing. ”

"I know what to do, what you should be worried about is your problem here. Erin Phier frowned, "While the divine power will protect you, this is the battlefield... You are facing an army of hundreds of thousands of undead. ”

"I'm not desperate, I just need to hold on for three days, you should have confidence in me. Pei Di smiled, and then showed a serious expression, "I was crowned emperor in the war, the foundation of the empire seems to be solid, but it is built on my imperial power, and I have been no longer in the imperial capital for a long time, we can't hear the voice of many parts of the empire at all, plus some people deliberately conceal it..."

"So, you shouldn't be here. ”

"For us, this war is not about losing or winning!" Pedi said in a low voice, "but about me commanding this war!"

"You..."

"Hear me out, my dear. Pedi interrupted his wife, "The most important economic reform is underway within the Empire, and Sira Marne, as the chief minister of the Military Aircraft Division, is now sent to the front, and my sister is simply not enough to lead the ministers of the imperial capital. ”

"Those cunning fellows are going to coax her around," Pedi smiled, "You should have seen the letter from Phyllis, and in her description the empire was so powerful that it seemed that it could end this war at any time. ”

"No one is better at lies than the officials of the Empire. Eileen Phil knows this all too well.

"So, I'm going to have to work hard for you. Pedi took his wife's hand, "The currency reform in Barra Town is important for the future of the Empire, you can trust Darik Danny, but this man has his own ideas, and all you have to do is let him hide the superfluous thoughts." ”

"I hate him, a shameful betrayer. Eileen Fil didn't hide her attitude.

"I hate betrayers too, but Darek Danny works for us right now. Pedi shrugged, "You can continue to hate him, but that doesn't stop him from being the Imperial Chancellor." ”

"I really don't understand why you put a traitor in the high position of Imperial Finance Secretary. Eileen Phil shook her head.

"Now two-thirds of the territory of the entire Eastern Continent is mine, and all the countries that emerged after the collapse of the old empire have come to fruition. Peidi looked at his wife, recalled the conversation he had just had with his wife, and after a few seconds of silence, asked, "Is it really hard for you to accept my choice to stay?"

"Honey, we finally have a baby. Erin Phier met her husband's eyes, "You rule over all the peoples, and countless knights can fight for you, so why wield weapons yourself?"

"In his youth, Emperor Laubert was once the most powerful warrior in the Empire, but then he put away his weapons and became a waste, and then his empire was divided up. Pedi looked away at Brooke and the elven officer, who had been stopped by the knight, and waved to Brooke as he stood up.

"Click... Click..."

Brooke stepped on the dead branches scattered on the ground as he walked quickly, and as he was about to salute, Pedi waved his hand, "Is it that the Undead Legion is gathering troops?"

"Yes, the undead legion is gathering its army again after a day's rest, and the attack is expected in two hours. ”

Pedi nodded calmly, turned around and spread his arms, "You should leave." ”

"I'm waiting for you in the imperial capital. Irene Fil jumped up and hugged her husband tightly, but then decisively let go of her husband and looked at the power on the side—Jon commanded, "Take care of Your Majesty." ”

"It's my duty. ”
