Chapter 92 Five The Banquet of Beauty

No matter how lavish and sumptuous Sulla's feast was, it could not really delight Adlem and his sons, especially Arufa, whose face stiffened when he felt that his father's safety was at stake in the feast after hearing those words from Nisinis.

"Relax, it's not you who has to deal with the situation." His father, Adlem, saw that his expression was strange and opened his mouth to warn.

"I'm sorry, Father."

Adlem whispered to his son: "To tell the truth, if it weren't for the atmosphere of this banquet to spoil it, the wine here is indeed a rare good wine, and the hostess is indeed an attractive woman, no wonder Your Majesty would be seduced by her." Lads like you really have to be careful not to be smitten by her. ”

"Father! Please don't make fun of your own son. ”

"What are you talking about?" The glamorous hostess noticed the whispering of father and son, and asked with a smile.

Adlerm hurriedly smiled: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just a little disrespectful to Madame to say it." The old man advised the dog not to be obsessed with you, Madame, so as not to cause His Majesty's displeasure. ”

Sula chuckled: "My lord, you really like to laugh, the concubine doesn't have such confidence to charm a young man like Ling Lang." ”

"Madam, you are too humble, with Madame's appearance, I am afraid that there are few men in the world who can not be tempted."

"Do you also include you, my lord?" Sula gave him a defiant look.

Adlem was unmoved, and said lightly: "The old man is so old, even if he has more than enough heart, I am afraid that he will already be beyond his strength." ”

Sula covered her mouth and smiled: "My lord really thinks that he is not an ordinary man." ”

Adlerham waved his hand and smiled, "Madame is serious." My father and son are already drunk, and they should take their leave before they get up, so as not to lose their temper in front of their wife. ”

Sula smiled, "How is your lord, leaving here?" Don't you want to know why the concubine invited an adult here? ”

Adlem smiled and said, "Madame, I'm afraid it's for Your Majesty, right?" ”

Sula smiled and said, "Your Excellency is really clever. ”

At that moment, Sula waved his hand and signaled to retreat left and right, and then spoke: "I think you have also heard that Your Majesty's intention to appoint your Excellency as the commander of the southwest border this time was strongly recommended by your concubine in front of Your Majesty. ”

Now that he has retreated, Adlem no longer has any scruples, and said: "Yes, the old man has indeed heard of it, and he really has the grace of Mrs. Lao's recommendation." It's just that this appointment has not yet been issued, so I'm afraid that's the purpose of the lady's invitation to the old man, right? ”

Sula nodded and smiled: "The adult is really a smart person, and the concubine is also outspoken." Your resignation as a general is in your Majesty's interests, but it cannot completely dispel Your Majesty's vigilance, because your prestige in the army is still very high, and Your Majesty still has lingering fears. Therefore, when the concubine recommended the adult, His Majesty did not immediately agree. Your Majesty is worried that your Excellency is dissatisfied with him, so it is obviously not good for Your Majesty to regain military power, so I asked the concubine to invite you here, just to test whether you are willing to accept this appointment? ”

"Two questions. First, since His Majesty is suspicious of the old man, no matter how the old man chooses, it cannot make His Majesty truly feel at ease, what is the point of this temptation? Second, madam, why do you want to tell the old man and the mind of your majesty? ”

Su stretched out his finger and pressed it lightly on her red lips, and said with a smile: "Of course you can't let Your Majesty know about this matter." Because His Majesty's approach is not in line with the wishes of the concubine. Indeed, my lord, your analysis is correct, no matter how you choose, Your Majesty's suspicion of you will not decrease, but whether you accept the appointment or return to your hometown is very different from the concubine. Looking at the whole of Arubania, there is no second person who can be as wise and brave as you, and there is no one who can compete with Li Tianhao except you, so whether you can master the border guards will be directly related to the victory or defeat of the war between Arubania and Palci, and also related to the safety of my son Gilmus.

Before today, the concubine and you were at opposite ends of the struggle, the concubine's interest was to let Arubania provide protection for Gilmus, and your lordship tried to prevent Arubania from getting involved in the dispute between Yaqui and Palci, so we must be playing with each other. However, in the battle of Baroud Fortress, if it weren't for your proper handling, my son would have been poisoned by Li Tianhao, and I would have felt sorry for this concubine. It was this battle that drew Arubania into this dispute, and thus the dispute between us did not exist. Now that we have a common enemy, Palci, it is natural that we should work together to help each other fight against a strong enemy. ”

Adrim sneered when he heard this, and said, "Madame is right. Indeed, it is natural for the lady to think so, but why is it necessary for the old man to become an ally with the lady? ”

Sura smirked: "My lord, this is deliberately making trouble with the concubine." You don't have to hide it, as you can see from the concubines in the First Battle of Baruud, you always choose the strategy that is most beneficial to Arubania. In the face of Arubania's vital interests, you even did not hesitate to go to war with Palci. When it comes to the life and death of the people of Arubania, you will not hesitate to stand up, so the concubine is confident that you will accept this appointment. ”

"Then how do you reply to Your Majesty, Madam?"

"This adult doesn't have to worry, the concubine body has already prepared a speech. The concubine will convey to Your Majesty your deep love for Arubania and your heart to serve the country. In the face of a powerful enemy, you will be resolutely on the front line against the invasion of foreign enemies, and as long as this strong enemy remains, your sword will always be pointed at your majesty's enemies. ”

Adlem shrugged and said, "It seems that Madame has already calculated everything, and decided that the old man will be your faithful watchdog." ”

"My lord, where do you come from, it should be said that your lord is the only brave knight who can rely on the concubine's mother and son, and the concubine is full of reverence for your lord. So, can the concubine think that you have accepted this suggestion? ”

Adlem squeezed out a smile and said, "Of course Madam can think so, but please let the old man be rude and say that in the future, when your actions endanger the interests of Arubania, the old man's sword will not be able to ensure the direction it is pointing." ”

"You can rest assured that the concubine can still hope to spend the rest of her life in Arubania in peace."

"So, take your leave."

"I'm not far away."

Adlem led Arufa all the way out of Sula's mansion, and Arufa immediately spoke: "This woman is really a devil! ”

Adlem smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that we can only cooperate with this devil. If she wants to return to her hometown now, then she will definitely do her best to slander Your Majesty to get rid of our father and son. This is what Nisinis calls the choice between ordinariness and death. You have to be especially wary of this woman in the future, I have a bad feeling that the whole of Arubania will be turned upside down by this woman. (To be continued.) )
