"Looks like I'm going to have to find some handsome guys and girls to sell bonds for us. Gu Shiyu began to think.

"Do you need to look for them, the two handsome personal guards beside you can be admired by the girls in the Iron Fist Castle. Seya laughed.

"You mean Gabriel and Lucifer?"

"Yes, the two of them are the personal guards of the Chosen One, and who could be more convincing than the two of them?"

Gu Shiyu faintly felt that something was wrong! If the promised return to the people in the future was not fulfilled, then wouldn't they cook and eat themselves?

"As for the beauties, isn't the daughter of the High Priestess of Somra with the two of them?"

Gu Shiyu nodded and said: "Well, Princess Catherine has a little beautiful guard named Jasmine, and they often play together, so let the four of them be the spokespersons for bond promotion!"

"Then that's just the last question. Your father, Kendall, went early in the morning to accompany the High Priest of Anel from the Isle of Light, and I'm afraid there is indeed a deal behind them. Anel gave him what he wanted, and now it was his turn to grant Anaire's request. The Queen Mother said worriedly.

"Mother, I discussed this issue with His Royal Highness last night! We promised Anair not to support Eric, but we would never send troops against him. ”

"I'm afraid this problem is not so easy to solve, maybe we have to go to war. ”

"Mother, our main enemy at the moment is Fiona's demon army, not Eric. We're all too busy to take care of ourselves now!"

"Let's wait for your father to come back, and then we'll have a good discussion!"

"Now that we've discussed the countermeasures, let's get started! I'll talk to the old minister and ask him to be an advisor to the think tank. Gu Shiyu couldn't bear to act anymore.

"I'll go with you!" said Seya as he looked at Gu Shiyu.

Looking at her expectant eyes, Gu Shiyu couldn't bear to refuse. He had no choice but to say, "Okay, then let's go together." ”

As the royal guards escorted Queen Saiya and Prince Regent Valley as Shiyu walked down the street, passers-by bowed to them.

"Gods bless you! Your Majesty the Queen, Your Majesty the Prince Regent!"

Queen Saiya smiled and nodded at the people.

The old man is feeding the geese in his yard. His waist was straight, and he didn't look like the old dragon clock that everyone saw.

"Your Majesty, Her Majesty the Queen and Prince Regent's carriage is parked at the door, I'm afraid they are coming for you!"

"It's too bad for them to see me like this! You say I'm sick and can't see any guests!" the old man threw away the wooden scoop in his hand and hurried towards the room.

The housekeeper hurried to the front door, but Saiya and Gu Shiyu had already walked in. He had no choice but to stand on the side of the road with his hands down, and said nervously: "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, Lord Xiang is sick, please forgive him for not being able to come to greet him in person!"

"Sick?" Gu Shiyu muttered. Wasn't he all right this morning? Could it be that after I removed him from office, he was so angry that he couldn't afford to fall ill?

"Then we'll have to go see him!" Princess Seya said.

The housekeeper had no choice but to lead them into the inner courtyard.

When the male geese in the courtyard saw the stranger, they immediately stretched their necks and screamed.

"Gu Zi ......" Saiya nervously held Gu Shiyu's hand.

To be honest, Gu Shiyu was also a little numb in his heart. When he was a child in the countryside, he was beaten by several geese because he was naughty, and their flat beaks hurt to peck people. He immediately took Thea behind him and shouted, "Get rid of them!"

The guards immediately ran into the courtyard and began to drive away. The male geese stretched their necks and flapped their wings, and immediately staged a human-goose battle.

"Ahem, ahem......" The old man appeared holding on to the door. He coughed so hard that he couldn't breathe, and Gu Shiyu was worried about whether his next breath could be lifted.

"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, please forgive the old minister for not being able to welcome ...... far away"

"Sit and rest!" Seya hurriedly helped him up.

"Ahem, ahem...... Your Majesty, the old minister is old and sick, and he has failed the trust of His Majesty and the people over the years, and he really deserves death...... Please forgive my sins for the sake of my years of hard work...... Ahem, ahem......"

Gu Shiyu caught a glimpse of the wooden scoop thrown in the courtyard. There was a lot of grain scattered around the wooden scoop, and it seemed that it was not placed on the ground, but was thrown in a panic. He immediately understood: Okay, you old fox, you can continue to pretend to be garlic!

Seya reassured, "We have no other purpose than to come and see you...... Since you are not feeling well, then you can rest well, and we will take our leave!"

Saiya pulled the valley when the rain came, but he pretended not to see it. He walked into the courtyard, picked up the wooden scoop and said, "Saiya, do you know why those geese attacked us just now?"

"Because they're fierce......"

"No, they are swans, flying high in the sky. And they can only stay on the ground and eat the grain thrown at them by their owners. They are getting fatter and clumsy, because they are afraid that their masters will use them as food, and they still have to pretend to be brave when they know that they are no match for the guards, so that they can show that they are still valuable......"

"You mean, they were all pretending to be like that?"

"Yes, in order to survive, don't we sometimes pretend?" Gu Shiyu put the wooden scoop on the fountain and squeezed his eyes at Saiya.

Saiya understood immediately. She squatted down, looked at the old man and said, "Your body is not as good as before, but I still need your infinite wisdom." I told the Prince Regent that we were going to gather some wise and upright ministers to form a royal think tank, and you would be in charge of the matter. ”

"Your Majesty...... The minister is already old, cough ...... When he was young, he was very mediocre, but now that he is old, what can he do...... You'd better let me live out my old age in peace......"

"A think tank is not the same as the Royal Privy Council. Gu Shiyu said: "The Privy Council is responsible for specific affairs, while the think tank is only responsible for policy formulation and strategic decision-making. For example, the crime of bullying the king, how should this felony be punished, etc......"

"Cough, cough......" The old man coughed, but he was secretly nervous in his heart. Did this kid already see that he was pretending to be garlic?

"As a member of the think tank, I will give them administrative immunity. They can speak up without any concerns. They don't have to worry about me confiscating their property and stripping them of their territory in a fit of rage. Saiya added.

Of course, this right must be reviewed and approved by a think tank, and then announced to the world in the form of legislation. Gu Shiyu said with a smile: "In my opinion, the power of the think tank is not only greater than that of the Privy Council, but also more relaxed. ”

"Ahem, ahem......"

"Alas, it seems that Master Xiang is indeed old!" Gu Shiyu sighed and said: "Saiya, let's go, let him stay here every day to feed the geese!"

Saiya stood up, but the old minister knelt down with a thud: "Your Majesty, your ...... The minister is willing to serve as an adviser to the think tank, and he will do his best for His Majesty, and he will die!"

Seya couldn't hold back a laugh until he walked out of the house, and then he burst out laughing. She pulled Gu Shiyu's sleeve and said, "I didn't think you were really a ghost! How can you tell that he is pretending?"

"Intuition!" Gu Shiyu said proudly.

Seia pursed his lips in disbelief.

"Let's go out of town, I'll have to talk to Catherine. ”

"Then I...... Don't go, so as not to be embarrassed when everyone meets......" Sea hung his head.

"Then I'll go!" Gu Shiyu looked at her and said.

Seya nodded. Gu Shiyu stepped on his horse and ran out of the city.

Seya stared at his back in a daze. Guzi, will you ever come back?

At the foot of the mountain, Catherine's army had already begun to pull out of camp. When Gu Shiyu rode into the camp, the heroes and soldiers looked at him silently, standing on both sides of the road.

Gu Shiyu didn't dare to look at their complicated gaze. His heart is even more complex than theirs.

Catherine and her staff were still in the tent. When Gu Shiyu walked in, everyone walked away with interest.

Neither spoke. After a long time, Catherine whispered, "Thank you, Guzi! Abigail has already started forging the angel sword for me......"

"Where's Tanan?"

"He's gone, taking all the criminals from Tekken Castle with him. Heard that his troops were waiting for him on the northern border. ”

Do you have nothing to say again? I think at the beginning, they would only be silent when they embraced, and they would silently feel the warmth of each other's bodies. Now, silence no longer makes people feel sweet, but very depressing.

"Where are you going?"

"Go to Standwick. That's where we're stationed. ”

"Catherine, you...... You have to be careful. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Don't fight a battle that you don't know if you don't know! If the military situation is urgent, you tell me immediately, and I will bring troops to recruit you...... Also, I've been talking to the crystal ball for the past two days, why don't you answer me?"

Catherine took out the crystal ball from her pocket, looked at it for a moment, then put it on the table and said, "Guzi, I don't think I need it anymore!"

"Why?"

"Because I'm going to marry Roland......"

"Why?" Gu Shiyu felt the sky spin. He immediately took Catherine's arm and said loudly, "Why? Can you please give me a little more time...... I'm sure everything will change!"

"Because it's good for all of us!" said Catherine, calm.

"Don't you want to be with me for the rest of your life? Catherine, we swear together to the mountains, to the sea, to the sun, the moon and the stars, that we will be together for the rest of our lives......!

"I haven't forgotten! But the distance between dreams and reality is too great, and I admit that I have failed! I have to accept the arrangement of fate......

Catherine ......" Gu Shiyu couldn't cry: "If you do this, it means that we will never be together again from now on!"

"Then what do you want me to do?" Catherine also cried: "Let me wait for you for decades? Time waits for no one......

Time waits for no one? What does that mean?

yes, Catherine can't wait any longer...... Besides, should she wait desperately until Seya or one of them dies, and then the outcome will be known?

"Cherish her, Guzi......! Bless me!" Catherine held back her tears, walked out of the tent, and then ran away.

"Your Highness Princess, Your Highness Princess!" was Eldred's cry.

Cuthbert, Hart, Adric, Sousa and other generals silently entered the tent.

Gu Shiyu wiped his tears, stood up, and bowed to everyone.

"Guzi, what are you doing here?"

"I beg you, take good care of her......"

"Please rest assured, we will protect her with our lives!" Cuthbert, Hart, and the others said solemnly as they placed their right hands on their left chests.

"Thank you, Old Ku, you have to come with me, I need you to be Erathia's minister!"

"Millet ......," Cuthbert said with a shudder.

"Please, you must say yes! There must be our men in the court. If Kendall is allowed to continue to monopolize the affairs of the palace, it will be very disadvantageous to our Second Corps! Old Ku, are you willing to accept this glorious and sacred position?"

"I do!" Cuthbert was so excited that tears and snot flowed down his nose.

"By the way, you also bring a few capable assistants to form a cabinet! We have to let the Royal Privy Council operate immediately, after all, the big war is coming!" Gu Shiyu also put his right on his chest and said: "Let us always remember: courage and honor!"

"Courage and honor!"
