"Two guests......" The boss asked suspiciously, "Are my words so funny?"

"I said boss, don't you know that the three princes never accept gifts?" the general staff officer sighed: "Take a step back and say, even if you find an introducer who is not easy for the three princes to refuse, such behavior is still very reckless." ”

"Tell me the truth, Your Excellency the General Staff. The boss turned around and waved a few clerks out: "The old rival of this store has found a backer, and there is not much time left for us, if we are not careful, what awaits us is only a dismal ending." I even have a ...... for you before I know you don't accept gifts"

"You're really well-behaved. Cohen couldn't help but smile: "So, why don't you just give the emperor a gift?"

"Who dare?" the boss was surprised: "The emperor's joy and anger are not something that ordinary people like me can speculate, and I dare not exceed the etiquette." ”

"Well, aside, I'll have to order a few sets of jewelry from you now. Cohen snorted and untied a small inconspicuous bag from his belt: "I have some ingredients here, you can help me design and make zuò." ”

The boss took the cloth bag with both hands, opened it and saw that his open mouth had not been closed for a long time.

"What, you can't do it?"

"No, we can do it. The boss nodded, a little unconcealed excitement: "But may I ask my lord, what are these gems?"

"His Majesty the Emperor rewarded it. Cohen replied lightly, "Can you see where these gems come from?"

"Of course, you can see the origin, this is a very rare Demon Alliance gem!" The boss poured the six gems in the bag onto the table, his eyes wandering over a few gems. Fingers were trembling slightly: "It's all of the best color." Now the color is not good because there is no polishing relationship. The most rare thing is that these gemstones are relatively large and can make a complete set of perfect jewelry. ”

"Then make six sets, each with a necklace, a headdress, and a ring. After seeing so many samples, I also have a little confidence in your ability to make the best jewelry. Cohen sat down: "But you have to be careful, these things I ordered are also given away." How long do you have to pay?"

"I promise to let you get the most dazzling jewelry in the entire Holy Capital, but it will take two months at the earliest. The boss came to his senses and held the gems tightly in his hand: "In terms of wages, can the adults allow me to deduct the cut scraps? I promise not to mess around to get more scraps." ”

"No problem. Cohen picked up another set of jewelry he had just seen: "But I still need this." ”

"Deal!" the boss nodded cheerfully.

"Since you're refreshing. Then I'll tell you one more thing, it's a favor. Cohen smiled, "As a well-informed businessman, you should have heard of the chief liaison officer of the emperor's majesty, right?"

"I know, I don't know ......what you mean when you mention this adult."

"Your Excellency the Chief Liaison Officer has made some friends recently, and may need jewelry, and I heard that he is resting at home this afternoon, holding the business card of Viscount Silvermoon Lake, he should be able to meet him......" Cohen stood up and glanced at the boss lightly, and threw a business card on the table: "After my jewelry is ready, you will also send it to the Chief Liaison Officer, Your Excellency the Chief Officer." Shall we walk together?"

"Very gratifying. Carlos nodded.

"Send the adults ......" The boss lowered his head and sent the two high-ranking officials out of the door: "Thank you, Lord for your advice." ”

Carlos also wanted to go horseback riding. was dragged into his carriage by Cohen.

"Where are you going?" As soon as he got into the carriage, Carlos asked Cohen with a grin, "Your Excellency the Viscount of Silvermoon Lake?"

"Go to your house. Kornpi smiled and said, "I'm going to see the mother of the general staff." ”

"No need...... Carlos hurriedly begged for mercy: "My mother's birthday has not yet arrived, and nothing has been prepared." If the house is in a mess, boss, you can spare me! I promise to invite you to be a guest on my mother's birthday. ”

"Really?" Cohen asked, skeptically, "and the reason you're so disguised is as simple as that?"

"I'm a general staff officer, how can I lie?" Carlos almost swore to the sky: "Because that mansion of my family was originally the residence of a rebel general, and many places have not yet had time to be cleaned up...... We're nothing, but we're wronged Miss Weisha, and if a dean knows about it, we'll all be preached. ”

Wei Sha pursed her lips and smiled, but did not say anything.

"Okay then, I won't bother at the house today. Cohen looked at Wasa and leaned back on the cushion, "But we're out, you'll have to find us a place to play." ”

"I remembered. Carlos slapped his thigh: "There are a few guys who have invited to a big dinner, just today!"

"What else is there to say. Cohen smiled: "Tell the driver to turn around." ”

The carriage turned a corner and drove up another street, into the high-ranking officials' quarters near the palace, and directly into a heavily guarded mansion. The General Staff Officer was in the carriage, and the guards at the gate naturally did not block it.

When the carriage came to a stop, Cohen stepped down in two steps, looked around, and asked Carlos, "This yard is good, who used to live?"

"It used to be owned by a general of the rebels, and the previous master was also a general, and now he is a general! Carlos smiled: "Your Excellency, would you like to guess who it is?"

"It should be the residence of that guy Wen. Cohen was helping Weisha get out of the car, and said without looking back: "Look at the furnishings around you, you can see that it is an alien style." If you invite you to a big dinner, that guy Wen should be the one who can make the most noise...... These guys have weird personalities, and no one but him can take care of them. ”

Carlos didn't speak, giving Cohen a thumbs up. Led by a wingman officer who had heard the news, the three of them walked through the hallway and into the backyard.

"I said, hurry up, or you won't have anything to eat!" As soon as they arrived at the gate of the backyard, the three of them heard a thick voice shouting: "Mogadi, what are you doing?

"I'm fishing. Judging by his voice, Mogadi was still the same, and he was answering in a serious tone: "You said you wanted to add vegetables." ”

"There is already so much food. Why do you still fish?" Wen's voice finally sounded: "Say it again." Can that little fish really fill everyone's stomachs? Hey...... I'm just talking! You don't have to put everything you catch back, do you?"

The three men at the door smiled at each other and stepped forward, and by the time they passed the courtyard gate, Cohen had already regained his true face.

"Let it go, Mogadi, you idiot, come and help me barbecue!"

"Nope. A serious voice replied, "I'll fish again." ”

"I really don't know what you're thinking. The dwarf tagged his beard and said, "Like a stuffy gourd." ”

"This should be understandable. Cohen, who walked up from behind, said loudly: "Our young master Mogadi has lived in the desert for many years, and he has a deep attachment to the water and the food in it. ”

"Boss?" Wadi turned to see Cohen and exclaimed in surprise, "Why are you free?"

"Don't be too exaggerated. I snuck out. Cohen walked up and bumped his fist into the tiles: "Look behind me." ”

"It's Weisha! It's getting prettier! If I don't have a marriage contract, I'll be the first to snatch you home!" Before Wadi could recognize who it was, Wen was already screaming from the sidelines, until Cohen knocked him on the head, and Mogadi put away his fishing rod and came over to greet everyone.

"Brother Wadi is good, Brother Wen is good, Brother Mogadi is good. Wei Sha picked up the corner of her skirt and spun around in place: "Am I really beautiful?"

"You don't have to doubt it, no one is lying. Cohen picked up a fruit from the table: "In today's holy capital, there is no girl who can compare with you, you are the most dazzling." What do you say? My Chief Officer. ”

"Of course. I have another idea. Carlos nodded and replied, "We should let Sister Vissa appear at the royal ball at the end of this month, so that the noble ladies can see what true beauty is." If Sister Weisha successfully dissolves into the social circle of the noble ladies. Naturally, it will help to raise the image of the entire alien race. ”

"My thoughts don't stop there. Cohen looked at Carlos: "In addition to being beautiful, Sister Weisha is a very smart girl, and she should gain control over the noble ladies." ”

"Boss, isn't it good to have a social circle that fights?" Carlos had a big headache: "Sister Weisha is not a general. ”

"I wouldn't be wrong, as long as it's a group, there must be someone to lead it. Cohen replied, seemingly casually, "Look at Carlos, the noble ladies will soon surrender to Sister Visa, that's her personal charm." ”

"Okay!" Wei Sha clapped her hands, "But I'm only ...... alone"

"I'll arrange a deputy for you. Cohen took a bite of the fruit in his hand: "After gaining the control of the noble lady, please help me charm all beings! You can turn your charm into a part of the centripetal force of the Sbia Empire." ”

Cohen's words were clearly pointed, but no one seemed to pay attention to them except Carlos.

"Well, since I have the praise of my brothers, I'll give it a try. Wei Sha, whose cheeks were slightly red, glanced at everyone and walked to the table: "Everyone, please take a seat, let me, the most beautiful sister, manage the table, who wants red wine?"

"To the boss, of course. Seeing that Wei Sha, who was approaching, was about to pour himself wine, Mogadi hurriedly covered his wine glass and said, "The boss is now the emperor's majesty." ”

"Mogadi, don't care about the emperor's name, every day in the palace is enough for me. Cohen smiled wryly, "Just let me relax among the brothers!

"No!" Wei Sha poured wine for everyone one by one: "For so long, my father has been using medicine to help me strengthen my physique, as long as I don't use very physically draining magic, I am not afraid of even the fierce midday sun." ”

"Of course, it's good to be healthy, but you can't be reckless. ”

"Nasty. Weisha said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Cohen still treats me like a child. ”

"Because you're my sister! Cohen tilted his head slightly: "If it weren't for your ruddy face, I wouldn't have taken you out to play." ”

"Brother Cohen doesn't hang out often? I remember when I was a kid you were the one who liked to play the most. A curious look appeared on her face: "And I've heard about it...... Brother Cohen, you run everywhere, flirting with girls everywhere. Hmph, Sister Merlin was tricked by you like this, right?"

This kind of thing would not be dared to be said by other people. But it seems very appropriate for Wei Sha to say it. Cohen laughed. The mood that had been suppressed by political affairs for a long time became refreshing: "Who did you listen to? Don't doubt me. ”

"Hey, hey!" Wen poked Mogadi: "It seems that someone wants to be jealous." ”

"Really?" the honest Mogadi immediately stood up: "I'll go to the kitchen and get it." ”

The rest laughed. Wei Sha's face was flushed.

"Although I am far away from my brother, my news is not closed. Glaring at Wen with hatred, Wei Sha poured red wine into his wine glass: "There was once a beautiful young lady who went to the battlefield to visit Brother Cohen, and I heard that this young lady has a singing voice that charms a living being!"

"I even let you know about such a confidential matter, Weisha's social skills are really not to be underestimated. Cohen nodded and said, "Yes, this young lady's singing voice is very seductive, and—Chief of Staff, when will she be able to get to the Holy Capital?"

"Soon. Furna will arrive early next month, and has been invited in the name of the Overseer of Internal Affairs. Carlos shook his head and replied: "As a single aristocrat, I am very much looking forward to the long-rumored voice of nature. ”

"It seems that Wen Du has told you sù, and will let you hear her singing. Cohen put away his smile: "But before that, there's one thing you need to do. ”

Everyone put away their joking attitudes and waited for Cohen to speak, and even Weisha sat down quietly.

"After the reconquest of the empire, many people will think that the big things have been decided, and the next ten years will be stable days, including the army. Cohen looked at everyone. The eyes were solemn: "Anyone can relax, but the army cannot relax." But I also want to maintain a situation that is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. So there are some things that cannot be said by me. ”

"Understood. Carlos shrugged: "It's not up to me to say it." ”

Of the others, only Wen understood what Cohen meant, and Wadi and Mogadi were still in a state of deep thought.

"Let out the wind and remind the army not to relax. Cohen explained what he meant: "Moya and Helter, as well as Grandpa Martin, are too high in office, and they are also the kind of people who can't speak. And Jack and Marfa's positions are a bit biased, and it doesn't work well to say it. Only you, you are in the army, your position is not the highest, and you have a close relationship with me, and what you say will make people have to pay attention. ”

"I understand. Wen nodded: "But boss, what are these words going to talk about?"

Cohen had a smile on his face: "It's good to be vague and make people suspicious." ”

"But what about me?" Wadi waved his fist: "I can't speak, I can only greet those who are slacking off!"

"It's okay with your fists. Cohen chuckled, "Push hard." ”

"Got it!" Wadi nodded with a smile: "But boss, you have to teach Mogadi, this guy can't speak, let alone beat people." ”

"No, you don't. Mogadi replied without blinking: "The sandmen are disciplined." ”

"Do we dwarves have no discipline?" said Wadi's eyes widened and round.

"......" Mogadi looked at the tile with a calm expression.

"The greatest strength of the sandmen is their group advantage, you have to admit it. The General Staff Officer patted Wadi on the shoulder: "They never value the individual, the only thing they value is the strength of the group, and Mogadi's belief alone is equal to the belief of all sanders." ”

"Brave dwarves never admit defeat!"

"It's not a towel. Cohen chimed in: "Acknowledging the good in others is in itself a very rare courageous spirit. ”

"Well, the boss just speaks differently, and I feel much better......"

"The dwarf actually slapped the sycophants, I really misjudged you......"

"I sue you, I'm bravely admitting what the boss said!"

"Patting on the back is patting on the back, and you still make excuses......"

"Boss!"

"Well, don't ask me. Cohen's mouth was stuffed: "Just throw Wen in the water." ”

Cohen was fascinated by the relaxed and happy atmosphere of meeting friends, and he couldn't stop talking to everyone. It wasn't until before dinner that he said goodbye to everyone and returned to the palace with Weisha.

As usual, the time after dinner is the most important gathering of the day for the members of the royal family, and it is an opportunity to not only summarize and report on the big and small events of the day, but also to communicate about the things to be done the next day. In addition, Ms. Cathering has always emphasized that the Kaida family is not only a royal family, but also a complete family, and a complete family does not allow members to slip during dinner...... So His Majesty Cohen had to take dinner seriously.

As soon as she entered the harem, she broke up with Cohen, and she had to go back to her room to change her clothes, and Cohen immediately followed by two more tails - his clerk and the head of the inner palace.

"Before His Majesty returned to the palace, several more reports were sent, and there was no need to rush to reply. The clerk seized the rare time in front of him and reported to Cohen: "Several provinces have completed the population count, and preparations have been made on the border, and the first batch of aid will begin to be received in the near future......

"What do the interior overseers have to say about those provinces?" said Cohen, who paused for Lucy to get dressed for herself.

"Yes, there is the opinion of the First Interior Overseer. The clerk had already taken a qiē to heart: "Now that the statistics of the provinces are almost over, the Ministry of the Interior must begin to prepare the next step...... Do you remember our next move?"

"Of course I remember. Cohen glanced at the clerk and changed the subject: "The aid from various countries is almost coming, so the Cardinal Court of the Temple of Light has not replied?"

"It's true that there is no news yet. The clerk shook his head: "Your Majesty, is our request a little ...... Abrupt?"

"Our request was reasonable, even if it was a little ...... It is also your responsibility to be abrupt, and you must know that the letter was written by you. His Majesty Cohen walked to the door of the restaurant, turned around and smiled and said to the clerk: "A little joke, you go back and rest, don't think too much, they will reply in the near future." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. The bitter clerk sighed, it seems that today he still has not escaped the fate of being teased by the emperor. Now that he is becoming more and more accustomed to unexpected situations, he really doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.

In the dining room, Lady Catherine is fiddling with the flower arrangement on the long table, and since becoming the mother of the Emperor, this lady's entertainment has gradually diminished, because of the change of status, there are too many hobbies that no longer suit her.

"Mom, I arrived on time!" Fortunately, her precious son was the same, still the same as before: "Why is the Earl of Night Spirit not here?"

"Besides, this joking title can't be written in the order, and you have to be more serious about dealing with aliens. While some of the aliens have a good relationship with us, those may not all know you. Cathering looked at her son: "The leader of the vampire clan still has something to do, he has already left the holy capital, and he will not return in a few days." ”

"It's not easy to be a leader! Cohen sighed: "But don't worry, Mom, I'll solve that matter for the vampires." ”

"I knew you'd take it all. Like most mothers, Cathering saw her son's mind at a glance: "Only then will you have an excuse to sneak away again." ”

"Mom, don't say it if you know!" Cohen looked around, fortunately no one else was there: "This is the only way for me to relax, and besides, I don't run out to play in the mountains and rivers......"

"You ran out and relaxed, but what about me?" Cathering used her magic weapon to pinch the emperor's ear with one hand: "Do you know how worried I am? Since you became the emperor, I have nothing to do except flower arrangement." ”

"Spare me, Mom. Cohen looked pained very cooperatively: "I'll be extra careful." (To be continued......)
