Chapter 49: Treasure in the Bag

Compared with the commoners, the minds of the nobles are much more complicated.

They will not be unconditionally loyal like civilians, they need to weigh up, weigh in all aspects.

And even if you make a choice, you have to leave room for maneuver and give yourself the opportunity to choose again.

At this moment, these aristocratic lords think that Tsepesh's words are very reasonable.

In particular, there is the part about managing civilians that is a kind of 'senior work'.

They wanted to ask what kind of guidance God had given to Cepes, but they didn't want to take the consequences lightly.

Tepes, the Ottomans, the Hungarians, the civilians in the territory, all of this, are points that need to be balanced.

This is a very complicated question, and it is difficult for the nobles present to give a quick answer.

Through the dignified faces, it is not difficult to see that these noble lords need time, even a small range of discussions, to give results.

"Whether what I have just said is alarmist or insightful, you do not need to judge immediately.

Now, I'm going to the banquet hall for lunch, and if any of you have something to talk to me about, you can go to the banquet hall and find me. ”

Tsepes could guess the thoughts of these nobles, and he did not impose persecution, but left them enough time.

Of course, his patience is not unlimited.

If some people delay giving an answer, or give a completely wrong answer.

Then whether they can safely return to the territory will be a more difficult problem.

It seems not impossible that some nobles were attacked and killed by the Ottomans on the way back to the territory.

Then their successors will put all their hatred on the heads of the Ottomans.

This may be the greatest contribution that some nobles can make in this life.

With that as he spoke, Cepes turned and walked to the corner of Sunset Square, where there was still a corpse.

The corpse was dressed in a purple robe, with two bags hanging from its waist, and its head, which should have been around its neck, ran away somewhere to go on vacation.

This is the corpse of Braye, who Tsepesch specially tossed into the corner of Sunset Square.

He was not in the habit of insulting corpses, and the purpose of doing so was the two bags around Bulray's waist.

He walked up to him, bent down and ripped off the two bags, and without looking at them, Cepes went straight into the palace and headed to the banquet hall.

Arthur, Davar and others, with the cooperation of several subordinate officials and clergy, dealt with the aftermath of the deceased.

All the dead will be buried in the holy cemetery of the church, and will receive eternal peace.

The funeral was scheduled for three days later, and Tsepes himself presided over it, and now the task was to arrange the remains of the deceased and put on decent clothes and shoes.

Tombstones, grave pits, coffins, flowers, all these necessary things should also be prepared within three days.

As for the corpses of the Ottomans, just find a few random people and throw them in the uninhabited suburbs.

Someone will do these trivial things, and Tsepes just wants to have a good meal and celebrate at this time.

In the spacious palace kitchen, eight chefs gathered together with excitement and a little tangled.

The excitement was, of course, because of what Cepes had done, and the entanglement was due to the sheer amount of ingredients piled up in the kitchen.

Today is the big day of Tsepes's coronation, and the palace chefs are busy making various preparations half a month in advance.

As a result, the gluttonous feast turned into a killing feast, and the food that was carefully prepared was not cared for at all.

While the cooks were wrestling, the court attendants appeared, bringing the latest orders from Cepes.

The prepared food was sent to the noble lady and the noble lady, and to all the soldiers and clergy.

As for those noble lords, there are plenty of fat reserves, so let them be hungry for a while.

The chefs were busy, and Cepes, who had given the order, was now at the head of the banquet table, about to check on Brae's two bags.

The bags were large and small, and he opened the large heavy bag first, which, as expected, contained dozens of gold coins and six rubies.

The other is a small, high-grade silk bag, which is worth a lot of money in itself.

For months, Cepes had been trying to figure out what kind of treasure was in the bag.

He believed that the bag should contain items such as seals and coats of arms, which might serve the later plans.

However, as soon as I started, my initial idea was shaken.

The bag was too light, and it certainly wasn't metal.

However, it is also possible that the seal is made of ivory, and if you guess it is right, you have to open it to see.

Tsepes guessed in his head as he opened the silk bag.

The first thing that caught his eye was a thick layer of white powder, which greatly surprised him.

"White powder? Are there drugs in this era? Braye, the dead ghost, is actually a hidden gentleman.

No, the color of this powder is gray, it should be lime.

Underneath the powder, it seems that there is something else. ”

The answer to something that has been guessed for a long time is about to be revealed, and Cepes finds the process interesting.

So he kept talking to himself, telling his speculation about the treasure in the bag.

Then, he took a silver spoon and carefully tossed the lime to find what was hidden inside.

A shriveled ball was successfully scooped into the spoon after rummaging.

"What is this? It's black, and it's all wrinkled.

I rely on ......."

After a moment of careful study, Tsepes came up with an answer.

The next moment, with a disgusted expression on his face, he threw the spoon along with the contents of the spoon.

Damn, this bag is really a baby, a baby's incredible baby.

I said that Bulray's face has no beard, it turned out to be a dead eunuch.

In addition to the mysterious ancient oriental countries, many countries have records of the use of eunuchs.

In the Ottoman Empire, a court school was opened to train excellent eunuchs to serve the Sultan.

Like Braye, who can be sent as a special envoy, should be considered the best among them.

To achieve his identity, he can naturally retrieve the missing objects and carry them with him as if they were treasures.

Thinking about the reason, Tsepeshi shook his head helplessly, but he didn't expect that after thinking about it for a few months, he was actually thinking about ......

All the Ottomans around them are solved, and the first step is completed.

Next, it is necessary to intimidate the nobles of the country and prepare for the retaliation of the Ottomans.

All kinds of reforms should also be put on the agenda as soon as possible, and the people's and national strength should be strengthened on the premise of not harming the interests of their own rule.

In order to forget this disgusting memory, Tsepeš began to shift his attention and focus on the next goal.

The extremely eye-catching silk bag was also thrown to the ground by him.

At this time, several court attendants with plates lined up to enter the banquet hall and put the food carefully prepared by the chef on the banquet table.

One of the attentive waiters, when he saw the silk bag thrown on the ground, immediately picked it up with great responsibility and respectfully placed it on Tsepes's right hand.

"I've got this bag for you, put it away, and don't let me see it again."

How could Tsepes lose his temper with a dutiful waiter, he could only smile reluctantly and reward the other party with the silk bag.

At the same time, the eyes of several waiters looked at the silver soup spoon on the ground in the distance, and the unknown black meat ball.

These people also wanted to be rewarded by the Grand Duke.
