Chapter Seventy-Four, Labels
Augustus ordered Cana to leave with Fiona, and Cana hesitated for a moment, then immediately left with Fiona, who was already unconscious! It was not the first time she had met Augustus, and Jana naturally knew Augustus's character, and the decisions she had made would never be easily tampered with by anyone! Jana, hehe, she doesn't think she's qualified to stand in the way of Master Augustus' decision.
The banquet went on as usual, and the joyful atmosphere was once again permeated at the banquet held by the Konstantin family! However, there is a very important protagonist Svein missing from the banquet, and Augustus, the culprit who caused the banquet to be interrupted in the middle of the banquet, was also taken away by Svein!
No one questioned it, and no fool would have thought that Svein would kill Augustus! Value is the best reason to prove whether it exists! Although Patton and Rommel were unwilling, they had to admit that Augustus's existence was more valuable than them, at least to some extent, Augustus was better than them!
Leaning against a huge stone pillar, his face has long since lost the cynical expression he had when he first entered the banquet, and has been replaced by solemn and heavy, if Patton's father, who had been blessed by his ancestors and received a shabby earl title, Buffett, who had been called a drunkard, would have been happier than drinking a hundred bottles of wine from the Hoh Xil Plain: My Barton is starting to get serious!
In Buffett's eyes, Barton is a genius! A serious genius, who else in the entire empire can compare? Rommel? Octavian? Offit? Augustus? Holman? Hehe, it's just a stepping stone.
"Augustus, I'm glad you've stirred up my fighting spirit, this empire doesn't seem to be as boring as I imagined!" Barton took a sip of red wine, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a slight arc, playful, contemptuous, and confident!
Perhaps this is the real Imperial hero General Patton under the mask of cynicism, rudeness, and arrogance!
During the banquet, the man who only showed him shallow respect for him meant that Patton's transformation could not be concealed from the eyes of Rommel, who was not far from Patton, and could even be regarded as very close. Augustus? Rommel was no stranger to the name! This man who has always been regarded as an opponent by him, this man who has always been regarded by Du Kecao as his role model.
Today, Augustus did not behave like a politician he usually hated, and although it was a little reckless, was it not the perfect model of a military man in the eyes of Rommel? Pursue? Hehe, this may be something that I'll have to face for a long time in the future!
Anger, sadness, nothing!
For the strong, the inhabitants of the empire maintain a transcendent mind while maintaining awe! Therefore, while looking up at the back of the strong, becoming a strong man has also become the most widely circulated phrase in Noxus.
A pair of old eyes calmly watched the transformation of most of the young people in the hall who were born from the children of the aristocratic world, born in the ancient and noble Constantine family, she would never think of transferring power to unfamiliar commoners, so it hoped that the power of the aristocratic world could be appropriately strong. The appearance of Augustus seems to be facilitating the progress of this matter!
For some young people who were still angry about why Lord Svein didn't get rid of Augustus, this old man, who had long been away from politics, did not hide the contempt in his eyes and sneered, didn't this group of fools know that Svein little guy didn't mean to get rid of Augustus at all? However, for some young people who can be calm, at least on the surface, they are not stingy and cast an appreciative gaze!
Not being able to show your emotions in the face of anything is the most basic condition for being a qualified politician!
Some people don't want to admit it, but they have to admit that apart from the guy from Augustus, the best performance in this banquet is not the large number of noble children. It's civilians. Commoners who have adapted to the aristocratic world - Rommel!
"Maybe this guy will never be a true giant, but he could be the leader of the Imperial army like Darius!"
The old man sighed softly and turned away from everything in the banquet. She was only there because there were so many people at this banquet who showed up, and now she didn't feel interesting. Then he naturally left, and as for the follow-up of the banquet, it was naturally handled by the people of the Konstantin family.
"The people in this hall may be looking up to that guy Augustus in ten years, but there are some people who will definitely look up to that guy Augustus. Even if he was only born into the ordinary and lowly civilian world. ”
――――
Augustus followed behind Svein, restrained his arrogance and invincible arrogance, and put on the mask of honesty, humility, loyalty, and honesty. Looking at Svein, who was also on crutches. From time to time, Augustus reminded him of the young Svein in the political arena, and he couldn't help but think of the deceased General Burnham.
General Burnham's back was as majestic as a mountain, which made him feel like a mountain. Although the back of General Svein in front of him did not give him the same majestic feeling as General Burnham, it was like a dry dry well, although it was exhausted, it was still unfathomable!
At this moment, Augustus couldn't help but recall a sentence in his "Biography of General Burnham Darkwell": "Time has forged his majestic, majestic, and invincible temperament, but it has taken away the two most precious women in his life, and he is willing to give up everything that no one wants to get in exchange for the reincarnation of those two women, but he understands very rationally that he can't get it by giving up, so he can only move forward on this road full of ruggedness and danger, pointing to death!" ”
Is the deep, deep, and vast temperament of General Svein, like General Burnham, who has lost what he thinks is his most precious thing, but can only move forward with difficulty and perseverance under God's joke?
"For Noxus!" These six words, which once felt very ridiculous in Augustus's mind, but now seemed to be very solemn and solemn, echoed in Augustus's mind again.
A person who did not live in the Noxian Empire would never understand why the inhabitants of the Noxian Empire, while desperately pursuing power and material wealth, and ignoring the influence on others, would have the simple but profound six words "For Noxus" engraved in the hearts of those who have become the center of power in the Noxian Empire. ”
Augustus didn't understand the meaning of this sentence before, but with the baptism of time, with the baptism of the atmosphere of the Noxian Empire, Augustus gradually understood the meaning of this sentence. Maybe the superior of Noxus will direct a scene of blood behind the scenes because of his own personal and family affairs, but it is rare for the superior of the Noxus Empire to betray the interests of the empire, because the six words for Noxus have been engraved in their hearts since childhood.
A voice woke Augustus from his reverie: "There are not many people who can survive to provoke the superiors, you are lucky, but I hope you can understand this luck!" ”
Augustus lowered his head and said softly: "A person who has no value of existence is definitely not qualified for this luck, even if there is a goddess of luck who is a swaying ****, he may not have it, Lord Svein, please forgive me for being rude to you in the banquet before!" ”
Svein smiled slightly and said softly, "I only saw a great knight at the banquet who dared to declare war on anyone for the sake of a knight who loved a woman!" But Augustus, will you tell me why you are willing to save Fiona of House Laurent? Even though he was a very beautiful and wonderful woman, I believe that was not the real reason why you saved her! ”
In the face of Svein's soft but sincere eyes, Augustus believed that any lie he told would be exposed in an instant, and never underestimate a cunning politician who has been in the political arena for more than a decade, and who can penetrate everything like a cardinal at the center of the spiritual world.
Augustus knew very well, groaned for a moment, and said: "She once saved me on the battlefield, and she is still my first woman!" “
Svein laughed, looked at Augustus and patted Augustus lightly on the shoulder, and said in a slightly mocking tone: "Augustus, are you sure that it was your first time to conquer the beautiful woman of the Laurent family, but Fiona's first time to conquer you, the battle hero of the Noxian Empire."
Augustus smiled bitterly and sighed softly: "Maybe in my eyes, Fiona has been labeled as Augustus, and if this world can kill Fiona, I am the only one Augustus!" ”
Svein nodded, the playful smile on his face disappeared instantly, he looked at Augustus, and said softly: "Augustus, I can let Fiona go today, this assassination of him is just a small betrayed pawn, but I hope you can promise me one thing, if this Fiona is really beyond your control, please kill her, otherwise when I do it, I may not be the only one who I can get rid of, do you understand?" ”
Augustus nodded and said, "Thank you, Lord Svein, for your reminder!" Rest assured, she will never be a threat to the security of the Empire, I will bring her back to Ferreljord, and where will I mark him as conquered by my Augustus! ”
Svein smiled as he looked at the young man in front of him with a confident smile on his face. He patted Augustus on the shoulder, "Come with me, just as I did with General Burnham!" ”
Augustus silently followed behind Svein, and just now he could already hear the faint sadness in the old man's words. (To be continued.) )
