Chapter 412: Growth
"There's another reason. ”
Later in the evening, sitting in front of Char was the General Lear, Lear, Lee.
After drinking a slow barrel of good wine together, Char had to admit that this Lear was indeed very set. Even Char had to admit that he was looking at this guy more and more pleasing to the eye.
This Lear seems to be more "informed" than Char expected, this guy seems to know more about wine than any drunkard in Wildfire Town that Char has ever known, and tonight Lear even taught Char to mix a little honey and some special ingredients into the wine, making the wine taste more mellow and aftertaste.
Tonight's meeting with Lear was not as tedious or full of intrigue between those who were wooed and those who were co-opted as Char had expected. The meeting was unexpectedly relaxed and fun.
Lear takes Char to a dirty-looking tavern in the city of Hasker, which has the best wine in all of Hasker, and of course the women.
This Lear doesn't look like he is in a mood for the day, but as if he is a different person. He talked loudly to Char, and the two men drank together, yelled, and even casually told some jokes in the army, and spoke rudely at will. When he was so happy, Lear even jumped on the table and did a tap dance, and then he shared with Char the "eleven ways to drink" that he had developed, which included slowly pouring a large glass of wine in an upside-down position in the corner of the wall without letting the wine spurt out of his nose.
The tavern was apparently frequented by a large number of officers stationed in the army, and then the two took part in a small gamble organized by the other officers, with a dozen men around a table, whistling, slapping the table, throwing loose pieces, gulping wine, laughing and scolding, and hooking shoulders and backs.
This Lear didn't look like an "heir" or a "dead or enemy" of the Doge's wife, he looked exactly like an ordinary junior officer in the army. In the tavern, full of alcohol, with loose collars, he and the others stared at the still spinning Sanko on the table and shouted loudly, and then cursed loudly when he slapped the output copper plate out.
Char had to say that the meeting was much more pleasant than expected. It's as if the two of them are the most common kind of men who mess around with men, rough and wild.
The meeting lasted until almost midnight, and the tavern was almost gone, and Lear and Char seemed to finally have a quiet moment and sat down at the table together.
Then, Lear uttered such a sentence.
"There's another reason. ”
"What do you mean?" Char squinted, he was also full of wine, but at this moment. Char immediately regained consciousness, but deliberately squinted at the General Lear in front of him.
"I suppose my dear aunt must have said something to you after I left this afternoon. Lear looked nonchalant: "So before we meet tonight, you must also know who I am, and my situation, as well as my role and status in the Besta Military Region." Haha, yes, I'm the one who wants to be the "queen." The one who was dragged down from her throne. Even though I'm still at a disadvantage, although most people have pledged their allegiance to that woman, haha, I don't care!"
Gooah didn't say anything, just looked at Lear.
"So you must be thinking: with the current power of my aunt in the Besta Military Region, why don't you just get rid of me for such a threat. Lear shrugged his shoulders, and then he patted Char: "Haha, I bet ten gold coins, you must have thought about it carefully today, right?"
Char smiled and nodded, still not speaking.
"Well, Char, you admit it, and I'm sure you've figured something out. For example, my aunt didn't get rid of me because my uncle wasn't dead yet, so she couldn't do it right now. Or, she's just using me to fish "Haha! That's right, I'm a target, she deliberately kept me, so that those who were secretly dissatisfied with her all came to the surface and gathered around me, and one day in the future, she could easily catch them all hahahaha "You must have thought of this, right?"
Speaking of this, Lear squinted his eyes and deliberately lowered his voice, with a mysterious look: "Actually, there is another reason, do you know what it is?"
"I don't know. Char shook her head.
"I'll tell you, because," Lear took a deep breath and whispered in a serious voice, "because, that, that, wants to use me to show her generosity, her bearing, to show everyone that she is a great man, and that she has the qualities of a man who achieves great things: tolerance." Belly, and *** or something, means that she doesn't care about seeing me at all, she keeps me, but in fact, she wants to prove to most people: Look, I don't care about such a small threat at all, because I'm ten thousand times stronger than that little Lear!"
Char laughed, and this time Chi really laughed, because this Lear's words were indeed *** interesting.
"I have to say, many people *** eat her very much! The more she keeps me and doesn't move me, the more others think she is unfathomable, and feel that she has a bearing and the ability to achieve great things that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve. Although she may have wanted to swallow me in one bite in her heart! But, as I just said, people in this world still eat her! But in fact, I know, she is a, a!"
Char remained silent and looked into Lear's eyes: "This little "" you said is your uncle's wife. ”
"You're right. Lear laughed, his face full of drunkenness: "But she's still a, a." ”
As he spoke, he stood up, struggled to stand firm, and then said loudly: "Do you know what kind of family the Yuri family is? We are not aristocrats, we are not traditional aristocrats! The people of the Yuri family are from the south-central part of the Byzantine Empire, and my great-great-great-grandfather was just a small farmer with a few cotton fields, and he was just a mud leg who struggled in the fields all year round! We drank ale, we could sleep against barrels and straw, we wore sackcloth, sometimes we wore shoes, sometimes we were barefoot! But do you know my aunt, who that woman is?"
He looked into Char's eyes and said in an almost ridiculous and absurd tone: "She's a little "nobleman, !hahahahaha, I'm right, noble!" she said a nobleman!"
"She wears silk and doesn't eat much... Shield, to eat a steak the size of a palm, you need to use three different forks and two handsome knives, and a dinner requires more than six courses of etiquette that the aristocracy calls dining, see the fucking hell! Lao Tzu can do all this with just one spoon, and this spoon may not need to be washed for three days! Do you know what a nobleman is? The aristocracy means "hypocrisy, believe me." This woman is the fastest person I know in the world."
Char couldn't help laughing: "Believe me, I also know a woman, and the speed of turning her face is definitely not slow."
"Look, we already have one thing in common, we're going to be very good brothers, Char!" Lear laughed, patted Char on the shoulder, and then suddenly said in a cold voice: "This bitch likes acting the most! She acts every day, every moment! Although she is a bitch, I have to say, her acting skills are very good! At least she has deceived many people, even my uncle has been deceived by her!" Oh yes, I'm sure you've heard the story of her praying to the gods to have a child, right? Hahahaha, would you really believe that someone like her would really sit in a religious prayer room for three days and three nights without resting, eating or drinking?
Lear's tone was full of sarcasm: "I mean, three days and three nights without eating or drinking. But I know her temper, this kind of woman can go five or six days without eating for three days for her beauty or to keep her figure! She is such a "nobleman." It is absolutely impossible to stay in the prayer room for three days and three nights without taking a bath! Therefore, staying in the prayer room for three days and three nights, Lao Tzu *** did not believe it!"
Char laughed, "This guy talks like a jerk, but I have to admit that this bastard is really funny to talk about." Interesting.
"General Lear". Char frowned.
"No, no, no, call me Lear! I thought we were friends. Lear laughed.
"Alright, Lear!" Char touched his chin, "I'm a little confused now, what do you really want from me?an ally?, or do you want my support?."
"No, no, no, my friend, it's so boring to talk about! Let's talk about something more interesting. For example, the thirteenth way to drink alcohol" Or, let me tell you a few secrets, I have a dartboard in the toilet at home with the name of that bitch written on it, hahahahaha
The whole, the evening meeting, that's pretty much it. It wasn't until the middle of the night that Lear's guards sent Char back to his residence, as Lear himself was too drunk to walk.
Back in his room, Char let out a long breath after drinking a bowl of thick decanting soup. Dora's voice came to mind, "Don't you think it's strange?
"I know what you're trying to say. Char nodded: "This guy first appeared out of nowhere during the day. Appeared in a tough manner, and then openly wooed me in front of the Governor's wife, and met with me in the evening. But I thought he would talk to me about some conditions or something in the evening, or at least some deeper conversations, "but the whole night, we were like two minds." The drunkard fooled around together, didn't do anything serious, and he made no secret of calling the Governor's wife in front of me, bitch, "This guy."
"I can't see through this guy. Dora's voice was a little incomprehensible: "The words he said to you at night were really shallow. I mean, this guy doesn't have a bit of depth, and even if he wants to win you over him, he could have done it a little bit better. The words he said to you didn't have any bearing at all, he didn't look like a person who could do great things, this guy was a drunkard and a bastard at all, do you think such a thing might pose any threat to that extremely clever governor's wife?
Char listened to Dora's words, but this time he didn't agree with Dora's opinion: "Maybe" this is where he is smart
What?" the female dragon was suspicious
"That Governor's Lady is very inscrutable" or let's put it bluntly, she's hypocritical!haha"If it's more temperament, than acting, this Lear is really far worse, so he's very clever to show himself in other ways, indeed, he's very crude tonight, even a little shallow, a little bastard. But "as he said, a lot of people eat the Governor's wife's set, but, I have to admit that there are many people in this world who eat Lear's set! Dora, you don't understand, many people, especially men, especially middle- and lower-ranking officers in the army, tend to behave like a standard politician like the governor's wife, or drink a bottle of wine with a few hundred gold coins, hold silver cutlery, and pretend to talk to you in a deep way about the low-ranking officers in the army, those men often don't like this! It's this Lear, he shows all this vulgarity, loud laughter and swearing, he doesn't care about the foul language, his mouth full of "bitch" alcoholism, and gambling that a lot of low-ranking officers eat him, you know? This Lear is actually very smart! He knows where he is good at. If he and the governor's wife are more connected and more basic, then he is completely dead! But he knows how to develop his influence in the middle and lower officer class, and with the support of a few old courtiers of the Besta Military Region, "I think that even if he can't fight the governor's wife, it is still completely possible to make some trouble for that woman at the right time." ”
Dora seemed to be a little confused, and it seemed that this clever she-dragon did not know everything.
"Actually, pretending to be forced is a kind of realm. Char smiled mysteriously this time: "Deliberately pretending to be deep and pretending to be unfathomable is certainly a route. Deliberately pretending to be very rude, pretending to be very heroic, is also a kind of line!This Lear is "very clever! He didn't say a word to woo me tonight, he just showed himself to me, and at this point, he showed enough patience! Do you think if he really is just a vulgar bastard. Will there be such patience?"
After a moment of silence, Dora suddenly let out a long sigh.
"Char, you've grown up a lot. ”
