Jeff was a recruit in the King's Praetorian Guard, a battalion that trained personal guards, and of course this new was compared to the old guards around the King, but he was only seventeen years old and had eight years of military experience in the barracks. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Having a talent for martial arts, he has always been the best among his contemporaries since he was a child, and it was their longing to become a glorious king's guard, and it was this belief that sustained them through the arduous and boring training day after day.

A few days ago, he and four other companions had been informed that they would accompany His Majesty Vincent on a secret journey to the western frontier with their chief training instructor, the King's Chief of Guard, Ronnie Holland, along with the current bodyguards. The news made them so excited that night that they couldn't sleep that night, and when they were later summoned by Ronnie to explain in person, it was revealed that if they did well, they could end their training period early and be directly integrated into the Imperial Guard.

And since then, until today's trip, he and several companions have been in extreme excitement, and have long forgotten the key points of 'always paying attention to saving energy' told by the instructor in the training class, which also caused the body to be tired and unpresentable near the end of the journey, but in order not to be embarrassed in front of many guards seniors, whether it is camping or placing horses, several of them are rushing to perform, and the result can only make the body more unbearable, but they don't know that the veterans who are traveling with them have long known their true state.

But even the people who had the best attitude towards them and took the most care of them on the road did not mention even a word about them, because they knew in their hearts that this was a level that the rookie guards must pass, the imperial guards were not generals before the battle, they could not learn to adjust themselves, they could not learn to correct their mentality, and the bloodshed and sacrifice in vain at the moment of crisis was small, and more importantly, if the protected lord made even a little mistake, it would be the unforgivable sin and indelible shame of their entire group, so even if this kind of ' The test method of smiling face and warmth and stabbing soft knife may make all the excellent reserve seedlings that have been cultivated for many years out, and it cannot lower the standard at all.

And the few people who finally realized that their condition must be improved began to seize any time to rest, and even Jeff, who usually had the best physical strength, did not bother to eat and only took a break, and at this time saw Ronnie come over with several wooden boxes.

"Chief Guard!" stood up to salute no matter how tired he was, and several people, led by Jeff, stood up straight.

"Your Majesty asked me to send it, saying that it was to see the hard work of the few of you to add a meal. As he spoke, he quietly handed over the things in his hand, and Jeff, who was faintly the leader among several people, took it and passed it on to the other companions.

The hands of the perennial sword practice are covered with calluses, and the temperature is a little hot for ordinary people, but they feel very comfortable, and any warmth that can be close to the skin on this slightly cool night is a rare enjoyment.

When the lid was opened, a hot breath with an unusually strong fragrance rushed to the face, and several people were surprised when they looked at the bright and rich dishes.

"This ...... I don't know where Your Majesty ......" Jeff was a little embarrassed, feeling that it was not easy for him to ask what he wanted to ask.

"This is a special treatment for a few of you, don't let down Your Majesty's kindness!" Ronnie understood what Jeff was thinking, and his answer naturally did not need to be concealed and embellished.

The boss's words made Jeff's hearts churn violently, he and the others were just new recruits, but His Majesty actually noticed them, listening to Ronnie's meaning, His Majesty sent them the food that he had not enjoyed, just because he felt that they needed it! This is not a reward for their excellence, this is a kind of love! A kind of love out of the care of the elders for their children, the love of generals for their subordinates, and the love of the king for their people; this is a king who loves his people like a son. A king whom they had sworn allegiance, a king worthy of his life, was doing a little thing that he thought was right, and it was this little thing that almost made five heroes who didn't even blink their eyes burst into tears.

Looking at Jeff and the others who were crying, Ronnie secretly thought that his goal had been achieved, and that as the commander of the Praetorian Guard as one of the important close ministers of the king, he was not only competent as long as he was brave, but also a person who was chosen by thousands of people in terms of mental means.

Favoring the king is not just about buying people's hearts, but also an effective means of maintaining team cohesion and combat effectiveness for the royal guards.

"Don't get me wrong, our meal with Your Majesty is estimated to be coming over again, this time we came out with a special character, and it is estimated that it will be a little more fun than before along the way!"

didn't see the scene of Xiao Yi and Vincent pinching each other, and Jeff and the others were a little confused.

And looking at Xiao Yi pouting and walking over slowly with a depressed face, Ronnie immediately understood that when he came over, the argument about letting Xiao Yi come over to cook for the 'big master' seemed to have a result, looking at this situation, there is no need to ask, the alchemy master must have let the unscrupulous king be a coolie again, and he couldn't help but secretly slander in his heart: Should the master he was serving be a little more restrained, otherwise with the temperament of the master in front of him, he was really anxious to flick his sleeves and return to the city by himself!

"Leave us alone, you can just take care of the old man's food alone!"

Ronnie said to Xiao Yi with a pleasant face, he didn't dare to play the 'unscrupulous elder' fan to Xiao Yi like Vincent, on the night of the Duke's Palace, he understood that Xiao Yi, who was an alchemist, was not present but objectively influenced the development of the situation, and the people present that night would definitely not underestimate this strange young man after breaking their glasses, besides, he also heard Eric say afterwards, and this kid is absolutely unambiguous when he really fights! Therefore, having Xiao Yi, a person whose strength is said to be more than his own, can also make him feel a lot more at ease about Vincent's safety, and as an alchemist who is a 'good friend of the magician', it is also an effective supplement to the combat power of the mages who are less than double digits in the escort team this time.

"Forget it, one person's meal is also cooked, and a hundred people's rice is also cooked, it makes no difference to me!" Xiao Yi took out kitchen clothes and kitchen utensils from the space as he walked to the makeshift stove.

"Besides, if it weren't for cooking for you, I wouldn't have cooked for that nasty thing!" he said and began to bust himself.

Ronnie didn't care, but let Jeff on the side completely mess up.

"Is this the guy the chief of the guard just mentioned? Looks like a chef! But why does Lord Ronnie respect him, and listen to him, what does he mean by 'nasty'...... Your Majesty!

I really...... Isn't it really a dream!"
