When others retreat, I will not retreat, and when others advance, I will advance further. The writer "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the person who wants to climb this mountain, at first it is difficult in the lower part, the more you ascend, the more painless, and in the end it is like sitting in a boat going down the river.
- Alighelli Dante (Italian poet, one of the pioneers of the European Renaissance)
Following the paved gravel road in the warehouse area, Bai Feng came to the side of Eggers and Antio, who were supervising on the side, where Eggers commanded his soldiers to carry the grain, and where Antio was deliberately arranged by Bai Feng yesterday.
This warehouse area is the most important place in the city of Rome, the grain stored in the warehouse on the east side is the daily grain and grass required by the 20,000 troops of the city of Rome, and the warehouse on the west side is stored in the wealth accumulated by the city of Rome for half a year, which is indispensable for the city of Rome.
The dishonesty in the negotiation last night made Bai Feng have a trace of distrust in Eggers, the military commander of the Aesini tribe, even if Bai Feng himself can understand Eggers's approach, but this does not mean that Bai Feng sits idly by and watches Eggers deceive himself.
With Antio in charge, Bai Feng personally came over early in the morning to inspect it, which shows that Bai Feng's distrust of Eggers is still quite serious, and even this will affect the status of the warriors of the Acenian tribe in Rome in the future.
Seeing Bai Feng with three entourages coming to his side and the others, Antio and Eggers greeted him at the same time, and the three of them stood on the side of the warehouse together, looking at the Aceni tribe warriors who came and went like hard ants carrying grain, Bai Feng also sighed:
"After the Tasya Tribal Alliance became our allies in Rome City, the friends of the Essini tribe also became our allies, and our Rome City has received strong support from these two allies one after another, and it is impossible not to take off!"
"Whether it is the Tasya tribal alliance or our Essini tribe, they are actually dependent on the city of Rome to survive now, if there is no food support from the city of Rome, I am afraid that our own survival will be difficult, it is the city of Rome that supports us!"
Eggers, who has never been able to slip around on horses, said a rare word of flattery today, but this is also the most realistic confession; without the food support of the city of Rome, the Tassia Tribal Alliance and the Aceni tribe are estimated to fall apart if they can't last half a month.
Hearing Eggers' honest confession, Bai Feng only smiled slightly and didn't say anything more, just as the three of them stayed here to watch the warriors of the Aceni tribe carry the grain, Queen Boudicca ran to the governor's palace to find Bai Feng.
At this time, only Yue'er and her servants were in the Governor's Palace, and Yue'er, who had just learned about the engagement from Bai Feng last night, ran into Queen Boudicca's running to the Governor's Mansion to find Bai Feng this morning, and Yue'er, who was quite helpless, could only tell Queen Boudicca's whereabouts of Bai Feng.
Staring at the back of Queen Boudicca's departing in a hurry, Yue'er subconsciously thought of what Shao Binglan said last night, even this woman who had just known Bai Feng for two days was going to get engaged to Bai Feng, could it be that she was really destined to die lonely with an elm head?
The sad Yue'er felt that she was really a failure, she returned to her room dejectedly, and lay on the bed weakly thinking about where her future was, maybe Shao Binglan said it unintentionally, but it was a stalk in Yue'er's heart!
Running all the way to the warehouse area, Queen Boudicca, dressed in a green royal robe, really saw Bai Feng standing with Eggers, and when she thought of what Eggers had told her when she returned from the Governor's Palace last night, Queen Boudicca came to Bai Feng's side desperately.
"Governor Bai Feng, can I talk to you alone?" With the sweat still flowing on her face, Queen Boudicca stood in front of Bai Feng with a little panting and sent an invitation to Bai Feng, and Bai Feng, who had nothing to do, naturally nodded and agreed.
"Well, Boudicca, do you have anything to do with me?" the two walked side by side to the large warehouse in the middle, far away from the other people who were carrying food, and without the passing of the inhabitants, it was the best place to talk.
"After returning from your governor's palace last evening, General Eggers told me all about his dealings with you, and I know that he did so for my own good, but I still cannot accept his dealings with you. ”
Queen Boudicca, who had a serious face, said something that made Bai Feng dumbfounded, he really didn't know that Eggers' deal with him was hidden from Queen Boudicca, and this Eggers was too bold, right?!
In any case, Queen Boudicca is also the queen of the Aceni tribe, and he, Eggers, is only the military commander of the Essini tribe, how dare he make such a deal with himself behind the queen's back? Bai Feng's shocked eyes were about to bulge.
"You mean, Eggers didn't tell you about it before he made a deal with me, did you? Or did Eggers make a claim that you and I would get engaged, but you actually found out about the engagement last night, right?"
The pampered Queen Boudicca is just a twenty-three-year-old girl, even if she pretends to be calm and calm, it will make people misestimate her age, but it can't change the innocence of the girl in her own heart.
It would have been embarrassing to talk about her engagement in front of a girl, especially since the person talking about it was her prospective fiancé whom she had only known for two days, which would inevitably make Queen Boudicca's face red.
"Alas, in fact, I also know that Eggers is doing this for my own good, you don't understand the relationship between me and Eggers, and naturally think that he is arrogating by doing this, but the relationship between me and him is ostensibly a relationship between a monarch and a minister, but in fact it is a father-daughter relationship, and I can understand him.
But I really can't accept the reality of being engaged to a stranger whom I have only known for two days, and that my whole life may have to be dedicated to the Aceni tribe that gave birth to me and raised me, which is a fate that I cannot change, and it is a predestined thing from the moment I was born.
But I hope that when I dedicate my life to the Aceni tribe, there will be someone who truly loves me who can accompany me to work hard for the Aceni tribe; Bai Feng, can you understand my heart? Can you grant my request?"
What is the meaning of mountains and rivers and doubts, and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village, this is the most typical way to see the bright moon through the dark clouds! Bai Feng, who was still having a headache about this matter, was now suddenly shocked by the surprise in front of him, and Bai Feng's mood at this moment was like rushing into the sky!
"If you can't understand, then forget it, maybe it's my fate to marry you. Looking at Bai Feng's unpredictable face, Queen Boudicca thought that Bai Feng couldn't accept her request, what could she do but make a helpless compromise?
"No! No! No! Budica, you are wrong, of course I can understand your thoughts, who does not want to be with a man who really loves herself? I not only understand your thoughts, but I also support your approach!
I grant your request, and the marriage contract between us is over, but the other covenants between the city of Rome and the Ethine tribe remain the same, and I sincerely wish you could find someone who truly loves you by your side, truly!"
