"See His Majesty the King. ”

Under the leadership of Sauron, the nine cadets who had received the Order of the Noble Samurai knelt down in unison.

Then, I saw two booted feet step in, and stopped in front of the nine.

After a long time, the king seemed to come to his senses and said, "Oh, get up." ”

Then nine men got up, and looked down at the ground, not to look up at the king.

"Raise your heads and let me see. The king changed, his voice was a little sandy, but it seemed to contain a sharp smell of metal, which made people listen to it very impressively.

It was the first time Sauron had seen the face of a king, a little thin, not handsome, with deep eye sockets and a high, steep nose.

Unlike the other kings, he had short hair and a stiff beard, half of which was gray.

His face gives people a very resolute but cold feeling, especially those deep eyes, which are intimidating.

However, his gaze is usually very scattered, as if he is thinking about something all the time, so it is difficult to concentrate on the things in front of him, which gives people a sense of distraction.

Perseverance and casualness, these two contradictory temperaments, appear on this face of the king at the same time.

The evaluation of the entire Raging Wave Kingdom on the king's change is that he is not smiling, and even mean and unkind.

When he was a child, the previous generation of kings commented on the change, saying that the child was moody and changeable.

At that time, several princes were vying for the throne of the prince. No one is optimistic about the change, because his popularity is very bad. All the nobles supported the prince of Quelan. for he is merciful and brave. Wise, totally the best model of kings.

However, the mutant took the last throne and, in the blood, wore the crown.

And after he succeeded to the throne, the relationship with the nobles of the kingdom was very cold and even tense. However, he immediately set about fostering the elite of the common people and fighting against the aristocracy. The aristocracy was afraid of losing their power. So he came to please and flatter.

In the nearly twenty years since the king succeeded to the throne, he has completely brought the southward expansion strategy of the Angry Wave Kingdom to the peak militarily, directly hitting the 100,000 mountains and completely driving the barbarians out of the Middle-earth Plain.

Politically, vigorously support the common elite class to replace the decaying aristocracy. The already somewhat corrupt and degenerate ruling class has taken on a new look, allowing the entire Raging Wave Kingdom to continue to maintain a thriving and powerful momentum.

So, even if you are hostile to the king's rebellion. I also have to admit that he is one of the most outstanding kings of the Raging Waves Kingdom.

......

The king walked up to Sauron, and his careless gaze finally focused a little, and he looked at Sauron's face and said, "You are Sauron." ”

"Yes. Your Majesty. Sauron said.

The king looked at him again, but said nothing, his eyes flashing with contemplation. Then left Sauron's face.

"Let's get started. The king waved his hand and said to the eunuch beside him.

Then. Nine eunuchs entered, each carrying a plate in his hand. On each of them are placed a noble samurai medal.

Originally, the ceremony of awarding the Order of the Noble Samurai was very solemn, and the king would personally come to the Royal City Academy, and in the main square of the academy, all the cadets were present, and the senior cabinet officials and army commanders were all in place.

Then in the limelight, the king awarded the Order of the Noble Samurai to the nine people.

However, the king does not like extravagance, nor does he like this kind of flashy spectacle. Even, he is reluctant to appear in front of many people.

Therefore, this noble samurai medal awarding ceremony has become so simple.

Next, the king dressed each cadet with a medal in turn.

"Loyalty to the king, loyalty to the royal family. "Every cadet who was awarded the medal knelt down on one knee.

And Sauron was the first, so he was awarded the medal last.

"Loyalty to the king, loyalty to the royal family. "After being ordained a medal by the king, Sauron knelt down on one knee.

After the conferment was completed, the king looked at the nine noble warriors, his eyes finally focused, and he muttered for a while, "Some of you will inherit the title, and some of you will not. But in any case, I hope that whatever you do in the future, you will consider the interests of the Kingdom in addition to your own interests and those of your family. ”

The king never told lies, nor did he speak glossy words, but always told only the truth.

But Sauron was still a little surprised, as a king, he didn't say anything about the scene, it was really ...... Personality.

"Well, that's it, you guys go. The king waved.

Nine noble samurai medals knelt down on one knee and then retreated and left.

"Sauron, get ready for tomorrow's pilgrimage. The king said, "After the court meeting, I will give you a knighthood." ”

Sauron was stunned, I'm leaving, and you told me such an important thing?

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty. Sauron had to get down on one knee and salute again.

......

After returning to the Earl's Court, Sauron told his sister Sonin Bing the news.

Soning Bing's beautiful face showed unprecedented joy, and he said radiantly: "We can finally go home, we can finally go back to Tianshui City, I'm so happy." ”

Not only Suo Ning Bing, but all the people in the Earl's Palace, whether they were maids or family warriors, were very excited.

Because, in the royal city, they are just aristocrats, and in the face of the suppression of the royal family, they have to be cautious every day and walk on thin ice.

And once they returned to Tianshui City, they became the masters of that land.

Suo Ningbing is right, no matter how big the Tianshui Earl's Mansion is, it is not home, Tianshui City is home.

Immediately afterwards, the excited Suo Ning Bing couldn't hold back any longer, and immediately commanded the maids and servants in the family to start packing their luggage and belongings, and couldn't wait to prepare to return to Tianshui City and return to their homes.

Sauron's eyes flashed with a hint of gloom, and he wanted to speak again and again, but he didn't say it after all.

Taking advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention, Night Terror Feather whispered to Sauron, "Master, what are you worried about?"

"You, you'd better call me by my name. Sauron said.

"Young Master, what are you worried about?" Night Terror Feather said: "King Chrysostom has been opened, you will be the Earl of Tianshui tomorrow, the prince of the kingdom, and the lord of Tianshui City." ”

"I'm not worried about the past. Sauron said, "Rather...... Where is Suo Hanyi?"

"Lord Suo Hanyi?" Night Terror Feather said, "Hasn't he already defeated the rebels?"

"That's why he may not welcome us anymore," said Sauron. Even, Tianshui City is already the Tianshui City of Suo Hanyi at this time, not ours. ”

Night Terror Feather was stunned for a moment, and then said resolutely: "No, Lord Suo Hanyi is a little arrogant. However, there is no need to question his loyalty to Suoxh, young master, you are too careful. ”

"I hope so, I hope I'm thinking too much. Sauron said.

Because he was born as an orphan and was looked down upon by many people, Sauron has always speculated about others with the darkest mind. He has always been pessimistic about human nature.

......

Early the next morning, Sauron dressed up, rode in a carriage, and headed to the palace again.

Today is perhaps the most important moment for him.

After today, he will become the prince of the kingdom, the Earl of Tianshui, and the lord of Tianshui City.

The struggles of the past, the struggles, are for today.

Because he was not yet the Lord of Tianshui City at this time, he was not qualified to participate in the court meeting. Therefore, they could only wait in the room of the side hall and wait for the end of the pilgrimage.

The court meeting of the Angry Wave Kingdom was held once every three days, and all the high-ranking officials of the military and political sides in the royal city attended.

And the topic of today's court meeting is closely related to Sauron. Because it is talking about the kingdom's new strategy of southward expansion, that is, whether to use Tianshui City as a military base for the kingdom to attack the Nanban Continent.

Because this is a strategy put forward by the detachment, both the military and the government agree with it.

At this time, their disagreement was whether to let Sauron stay in the royal city, and then the cabinet and the headquarters temporarily took over Tianshui City.

As compensation, Sauron's title was promoted to the rank of Marquis of the Kingdom, and he was directly given a high rank and a high position.

In both the cabinet and the high command, Sauron was given a position, a very high position.

One is the senior staff of the Cabinet who is directly responsible to the Prime Minister, and the other is the deputy commander of the Royal Family.

Of course, both locations, have a common feature.

That is, the status is very high, very prominent, but there is no real power.

For example, the former position, to put it bluntly, is the secret technique of the Prime Minister's assistant. It is the only way to become a top cabinet member, and every prime minister has served as a senior cabinet member when he is young.

The latter position may sound like nothing, but the leader of the royal dragon guard is the prince of the valley.

Therefore, these two positions are completely coveted by the young nobles of the entire Angry Wave Kingdom.

However, his honey, my arsenic.

Just when the high-ranking military and political sides of the kingdom were fighting for Sauron's position, the king changed and said: "You are fighting so hard, then it is better to let the person concerned talk about his opinion and let Sauron come in." ”

A moment later, a eunuch led Sauron into the Great Hall.

For the first time, he also saw the true ruling core of the Angry Wave Kingdom, and almost all the civil and military high-ranking officials in the entire kingdom were here.

The king said, "Sauron, I'm about to knight you." They argue a lot about where you're going. You have three options, the first is to go into the cabinet and help the prime minister with things. The second is to enter the royal dragon guard army as a deputy commander. The third is to return to your Tianshui City. ”

Sauron's breath sank, and he didn't expect that when he was knighted, he would have another problem for himself. Of course, for Sauron, this conundrum was not difficult at all.

His goal has always been clear: to reclaim Soxhth's century-old legacy. For those illustrious positions, it is still the same sentence, your honey, my arsenic.

Sauron bent down and said, "The minister makes the third choice, return to Tianshui City, and govern the hundred-year-old inheritance left by the ancestors. (To be continued.) )
