General Lan knelt down in public and knelt before Caesar. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info His posture was very low, his face was sad, and he knelt on one knee, and the slate under his knee was even smashed by him with a slight crack.

No one could have imagined that General Lan would make such an astonishing move, in fact, it was difficult for the people around him to imagine how much shock such news would cause in the imperial capital and in the entire south.

But what they didn't expect was Caesar's reaction.

This young man seemed so calm, except for a hint of surprise in his eyes when General Lan knelt down, and then he stood firmly in place as if he was fine.

His body was like his heart, without the slightest wavering or retreat.

And when Caesar, in the midst of everyone's shocked expressions, said, "What do you want to apologize for? Speak, I'll listen." An old, but not old, colonel behind General Blue stepped forward.

"General, what are you doing?" the old man asked in a deep voice, he hesitated, and did not try to help General Lan up, as one of General Lan's cronies, he instinctively knew that his adults would not do meaningless things, but kneeling in front of so many people in front of a hairy boy, such a thing was unacceptable after all.

So the old man turned to look at Caesar, his tiger eyes narrowed slightly, and he took a deep breath and said, "Caesar, you are a junior and the heir appointed by the general. What kind of system is this? Why don't you help the general up!"

The old man's reaction was very fast, if there was anyone present besides General Lan himself, who was most suitable to get General Lan up, it was Caesar.

The Imperial Military Department attaches the most importance to the hierarchical sequence, especially the people of General Lan's department, in their opinion, there are no rules, no up and down, there is no discipline at all. And an army without discipline will not be fighting at all.

It can be seen that General Lan did not reveal to his subordinates in advance that he would kneel, led by the old man, and all the people in the military department behind the old man were silently looking at Caesar at this moment.

Except for the old man, no one spoke, but everyone's eyes showed the same meaning: don't be ignorant. General's kneeling, you can't stand it!

Yes, I can't stand it, this is what many people really think in their hearts.

No matter how hard Caesar turned the tide in the battle five days ago, no matter how powerful he was now, in the minds of many people, there was no way to connect that youthful and excessive face with what Caesar had done.

In their hearts, even if Caesar's strength is as strong as the sky, after all, he was born in the military department, and the empire cultivated him, and he has now become a powerful weapon of the empire. He can become a big hero in the eyes of the people, but after all, he is only a weapon, and he will not become the head of the military department. At least not while General Blue is still around.

The whole square was silent.

People look at this scene in front of them and don't even realize that they have been holding their breath for a long time.

Caesar's reply to the old man sounded in the quiet square, and he did not look at the old man, nor did he turn a blind eye to the silent gaze of the crowd behind him. Caesar just looked at General Lan in front of him and asked seriously: "Is the general going to apologize to me personally, or is the general's subordinate going to apologize to me on behalf of the general?"

"Of course, I apologize personally. General Lan said.

Caesar snorted, and then gently pushed the two girls beside him aside, and then said solemnly: "If the general apologizes, I will accept it." But the general's subordinates are not convinced, and they have resentment, what should they do?"

General Lan said: "I don't know how to accept my apology, Caesar, but also to let all those present testify." If I can't convince my subordinates, I won't be satisfied even if you accept my apology. ”

Speaking of this, General Lan shouted to the subordinates behind him and ordered: "None of you are allowed to interrupt me, listen carefully to what I have to say, and those who violate the order will be dealt with by military law!"

"But the general—" The old man was a little anxious.

"Military law!" General Lan accentuated, sounding firm and unshakable.

Then he took a deep breath, remained on one knee, and said, "Caesar, I am sorry for you in three points. When you first entered the Dragon Path, you were suppressed by the people of the Twelve Round Table Family and had to be relegated back to Aoki Castle, and as an Imperial General, I was not able to stand up for justice at that time, which is the first point. ”

"In the second Dragon Dao mission, you made a great achievement, but then things changed, and Phoenix and the others were taken captive to the north by the Battle Commander. You repeatedly asked to go to the north to rescue you in person, but I didn't allow it because I had a lot of concerns, and finally forced you to flee the imperial capital and go north alone. I made a serious mistake in judgment as a general, and this is the second point. ”

General Lan's voice grew louder and louder.

At first, it was a little low, but now it became louder, word by word, and clearly reached the ears of every imperial citizen present.

"Then, there is the third point, and the point that I blame the most!"

When General Lan said this, he raised his head, looked at Caesar and said, "After you left the imperial capital, I issued a national wanted warrant for you in order to strictly enforce the discipline of the military department, and almost ruined the future pillar of an empire like yours. Every time I think about it, I feel terrified. If I had really caused you to collapse at that time, it would have been difficult to say whether the battle had been fought five days ago, the victory or defeat between the empire and the fighting dynasty, and then I would not have become the biggest sinner in the empire? As a general, I blindly attach importance to military discipline, but I don't know that discipline is dead, people are alive, and I am rigid and old-fashioned, and this is the third point I am sorry for you. ”

"I hereby ask all the people of the empire to witness the above three points, and sincerely ask for your forgiveness!"

After General Lan finished speaking in one breath, his voice was already choked, he lowered his head deeply, no matter who listened to this frank apology, seeing this gesture of kneeling in public, would not doubt the sincerity of General Lan's apology.

To be honest, ordinary people don't really know about the three things General Lan said.

But in their opinion, Caesar is now standing here and has become a great hero of the empire, which means that nothing irreparable has happened.

Now, the feelings in people's hearts about General Lan's kneeling are no longer the initial shock, shock, and incomprehension.

Many people showed understanding and admiration in their eyes, as a general, dare to bravely stand up and admit in public some mistakes they have made, how many people can do such a thing?

It is foreseeable that as long as Caesar accepts General Lan's apology and works together to support a new blue sky for the empire in the future, then today's scene will be a legendary story in the history books of later generations.

Didn't all those present become witnesses to this good story!

I don't know who started and shouted, "Forgive the general!" Soon spread throughout the square, and all the people of the empire applauded with smiles on their faces and shouted: "Forgive the general!"

In the midst of the cries, Caesar stood silently in place, looking down at General Lan in front of him.

General Lan also maintained a kneeling posture, quietly waiting for Caesar's reply.

The two people, who were the focus of everyone's attention, didn't seem to speak, but in fact, Caesar asked in a voice that only he and General Lan could hear: "So, that's it? This is the means you came up with to tie me firmly to the chariot of the Empire?"

General Lan did not move, his head was not raised, and he also sent a wisp of voice into Caesar's ears, and the voice and tone of voice were very different from when he apologized.

The voice he sent into Caesar's ear did not have any warmth, but was cold and indifferent: "Talking about means or something, it's serious." It's just that...... Caesar, can you not accept my apology?"

Can you not accept it?

Caesar looked up and looked at the sky.

The road I have traveled so far, everything I have experienced, and I have struggled between life and death countless times...... Everything can really be compensated for just by relying on General Lan's show and a few apologies?

The cry of "Forgive the general" gradually subsided, and everyone looked at Caesar, waiting for the exit of the "I forgive you".

Nono turned her head a little sadly, standing in her perspective, she couldn't think of any answer other than "I forgive you", she understood General Lan's show, but she was powerless to find that she couldn't deal with such shamelessness.

"Forget it, it's just to act in public. Nuno thought to himself, "If you forgive him to his face, will you really forgive?" and then Caesar will do whatever he should do, and deal with shameless people, and there is no need to make any promises to him......

Nono suddenly stopped thinking about comforting himself.

Then she looked up and saw the stiff smiles on the faces of the crowd, and the incredulity in their eyes.

For just now Caesar answered, and his answer was, "I'm sorry...... I don't accept your apology. ”
