The sun is shining and the weather is bright, so it is a good weather to travel, so there are a lot of people traveling on the street.

Like a statue, Lefell sat meticulously in the carriage. Today is his first day as an adjutant to the king, and with such a lot of pressure, he can't help but be nervous, so he might as well take the posture of a soldier and let His Majesty the King see his Lefer's military qualities.

It's just that it didn't take long for him to break through.

"Here we are, Adjutant Leffel."

"Oh."

After getting out of the car, Lefell looked at the imposing Quirinalale Palace, and his heart felt empty.

Thankfully, the guards waiting for him relieved him.

"Is it Major Leffel?"

"Yes, it's me."

Faced with the inquiry of the guard at the door, Lyfer straightened his clothes and immediately stepped forward.

Seeing Lefell coming forward, the guard looked at him and asked again. "You are Major Paul Tauné di Lefere?"

Lyfer smiled at the guard's inquiry. "If no one else has that name, it should be me."

"I'm sorry, I just wanted to confirm."

The guard apologized and continued. "Please come with me, Your Excellency the Chief of the Guard is waiting for you."

"Lead the way."

Led by the guards, Leffel made his way through the guards and met the chief of the guard, Baron Felimici, in the palace hall.

"Hello, Adjutant Leffel."

"Hello, Your Excellency."

After the two briefly greeted each other, Felimich said immediately. "Your Majesty has already told me, now let me take you around the palace."

"Thank you, Chief Guard, for leading the way."

In the face of the captain of the guard personally leading the way, Lefeel was very grateful. Although Leffel had not cared much about Roman politics before, after receiving the news that he would become an adjutant, he immediately inquired from his friends in Rome about the king's preferences and the political situation.

Of course, during this period, Leffel would not say that he would become the king's lieutenant, but inquired about it for other reasons. Faced with Leffel's inquiry, his friends in Rome were very curious. Because Leffel's image has always been to focus only on the military, or the situation of the navy, how can he be interested in inquiring about this news.

Since this friend who only cares about military affairs has opened his mind, he will generously share this information with him. In the mouths of his friends, the situation about King Carlo was told far and wide.

From being ignored by the ministers at the beginning, to fighting to regain some of the power, and then gradually gaining power, the young king's road of struggle could have been written as a novel.

Of course, no matter which friend speaks, he has to admit that this king has a very precise eye.

No one could have imagined that France would lose the war with the Qing people, although nominally the French were slightly superior, but in reality no one knew about the French crushing defeat in the Far East. Then he snatched a colony of the Dutch in Southeast Asia, completely without giving the Dutch a chance to resist, which also proves the precision of this Carlo. It is not possible for anyone to take the Lanfang colony by surprise and make the Dutch unprepared.

Of course, when talking about this king, his chief of guard, Baron Felimich, will inevitably be brought along. Being able to serve as the chief of guard of two kings, and also as the chief of the guard after the assassination of the previous king, Umberto I, this Baron Felimici is definitely not easy.

As for the Prime Minister and the ministers, his friends also said something they knew, which gave Leifell a general idea.

With this information, of course, Lefeel did not dare to underestimate the chief of guard in front of him, and listened to him introduce the situation of the palace to him along the way.

"This is the inner garden, in the evening, the two princesses like to come out to play, if there is nothing important, it is best not to come at this time."

"This is the Monchi Garden, and the Queen Mother likes to bring guests here for afternoon tea in the afternoon, so try to avoid coming here in the afternoon."

"In the library here, Prince Vittorio likes to read here in the morning, if you want to read, then keep it as quiet as possible."

"This is your bedroom, it's already made with a bed, if you don't like it, you can bring your own bedding. That's right, here's your key. ”

In a clean room already stocked with all sorts of items, the head guard took out the room key and handed it to him.

"Thanks to the Chief Guard, I like it so much that I don't need to change the bedding anymore."

Faced with the words of the chief of guard, Leffel hurriedly expressed his gratitude.

"Well, I'll take you to your Majesty later, and now Your Majesty is summoning His Excellency Tejela, Chancellor of the Exchequer."

"It's okay, I'll just wait."

Leffel lowered his posture very low, like a recruit who had just entered the barracks, and let him do whatever he wanted. Of course, this also has to do with the circumstances in which he finds himself, and anyone who suddenly becomes the king's lieutenant from an ordinary major will do the same.

It wasn't long before the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Tejela, walked out of the King's office with his head bowed.

Seeing the powerful Chancellor of the Exchequer, both the Chief of the Guard and Leyfer stood up in unison.

"Your Excellency Tejela, are you going out now?"

The greeting from the chief of the guard made Tejera look up. "It turned out to be Your Excellency the Baron, and I am going back to the Ministry of Finance now."

With that, Tejera looked at Lefer, who was standing aside.

"Hello, Lord Tejela, my name is Leffel."

"Hello, Mr. Leffel."

Faced with Leifer's self-introduction, Tejera glanced at him thoughtfully. It seems that it won't be long before these old foxes in politics will know him.

It was only after the financial agreement was gone that the chief of the guard said to Leffel. "You wait here, I want Your Majesty to give you an announcement."

"Thank you."

After being briefed by the chief of the guard, Leffel finally had the first chance to meet King Carlo alone.

"I've seen Your Majesty."

Looking at Leffel, who was standing respectfully in front of him, Carlo smiled and said, "Do you have a lot of questions for me?" ”

In the face of His Majesty speaking his mind, Leffel did not deny it. "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Okay, let me ask you a question."

Faced with the king's sudden remark, Leffel felt so sudden.

"Is it true?"

As soon as he said this, Leffel really wanted to slap himself twice. How could a king be asked like this, it would be like a three-year-old child to speak like this.

But Carlo didn't care about that.

"It's true."

Although Leffel had a lot of questions to ask, he decided to ask the one question he was most concerned about, and if he didn't know the answer to that question, he wouldn't be able to sleep well.

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask, why did you choose me?"

"I knew you'd ask." Listening to Lefeel's question, Carlo gave an explanation after rethinking it inwardly. "Because of my intuition, I feel that you are very capable, and in the naval battles of the Far East, you proved it. So when I needed to choose an adjutant, I thought of you. ”

Well, Carlo's answer made Lefell a little crying and laughing, and he guessed for a long time because he met his eyes, and of course the naval battle in the Far East also gave him a lot of points.

In the face of Carlo's explanation, although Leffel still has some doubts, he still agrees with this statement. After all, this is what the king himself said, and it is more reliable than random guessing outside.

Carlo then asked Leffel some more questions, which he answered, and the first meeting between the two ended.

Carlo looked at Leffel who was leaving and sighed. Well, only half of what was explained to Leffel is true, and that is that Lefehr is doing well in the Far East.

But this is not the reason why Carlo chose him to be an adjutant, the bigger reason is that Carlo wants to deepen his ties with the Navy, and in the absence of a suitable candidate, Lefer, who has performed well, has become his choice.

If you can't find a loyal lieutenant, it's okay to choose someone with good ability. As for why Carlo didn't choose an army officer to be an adjutant, it goes without saying.

Either way, Leffel became the king's lieutenant, and at least it was a new world for him, because he had enough information on the latest situation in the navy and army.

While Carlo was working hard for Italy, a battle was raging in Somalia, East Africa.
