Out of the banquet hall, until after entering the backyard, Kelly's cheeks were still bulging.

"Cohen. Finally, Kelly said to me angrily, "Why are you so polite to them?

I stopped and smiled at Filin.

"Here's it!" I said, pointing to the small stone table with which I had "negotiated" with Filine the other day, "and we're going to sit down here." ”

Kelly was still angry, and Winsley smiled and pulled over to make her sit down.

"According to our Kelly Inspector of Internal Affairs," I said with a smile, "I have to put a knife on their necks?"

"It's not that I want to think like that. Kelly said, "Actually, aren't they alive because of you, Cohen?

"The leader of a small tribe is naturally not as knowledgeable as the patriarchs of several major foreign races! If he has a good physique, knows a language that can communicate with people, or is it hereditary, how good can Su zhì be?" I shook Kelly's hand: "We should be more tolerant and give them some time to learn." ”

"But their attitude is really excessive!" said Kelly, "I really want to beat them up." ”

"You can't do that! Although they ask me to be an official, they have no problem in loyalty, that is, they are a little thicker-skinned. I shook my head and said, "Besides, half of the 150,000 troops in the province are the sons of their clan, and if you rashly move them, it will lead to unstable morale." ”

"But I'm still worried. Kelly said worriedly: "There is such a big gap between them and officials at all levels of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, how can they work together in the future?"

"Haha. I laughed and said, "Do you need to work together?"

Kelly opened her eyes and asked, "But didn't my sister say that let them be councilors?"

"But did your sister say who the councillor is? I smiled even more: "After being tortured by Lorenzo." Do you think they're still what they are?"

"What the hell is that councillor......

"They can have meetings with the top heads of the Home Office. You can also meet your husband and your majesty. The status is similar to that of a high-ranking official. Fei Lin smiled and said: "It's very beautiful, but there is no real power." ”

"I see!" Kelly suddenly realized, "I'm worried in vain." ”

"So, my dear Lady Kelly can no longer pretend to them that she wants to eat people. I said, "Actually, the people of the thirty-six tribes are very hard-working, and they themselves do not lose their simple nature, that is, they have a very strict inferiority complex in their hearts. Take your time, we can change them. ”

"But. Kelly pouted and said, "When I see them, I can't help but get angry." ”

"It's because you don't understand them, why should I accommodate them?" I said, "That's because I saw the other side of them in the Battle of Tucheng." There is something valuable in them too. These leaders are even the most slippery among the more than a million people. ”

"Okay......" Kelly reluctantly agreed, "I'll try to do it." ”

"That's right. I turned my head and asked Firin, "Why did Your Majesty send wine at that time, you arranged it?"

"It's not that I'm afraid you'll lose your temper. Fei Lin glanced at me: "Before the meeting ended, I had someone inform Your Majesty." ”

"Thank you, I really wouldn't have been able to handle these scenes without the three of you. ”

"Ahh Kelly exaggeratedly said, "Sister, don't pay attention to him, Winsley, let's get rid of him." ”

Wen Sili agreed, but looked at me with tenderness. Philine also stopped Kelly from continuing to mess around, and the four of them laughed and chatted. I, the hard-working governor, are always on the go. It was really rare to be able to talk with the ladies like this, and everyone cherished this opportunity......

Of course, the Governor ended up going to the study alone. And how much determination does it take to get out of the tenderness of the three beautiful ladies? Young Master Ben is definitely a model figure who does not sit still, and in terms of this firm heart, there is absolutely no one to compare......

For the next two days, I barely had a chance to walk down the front building, and I was pressed to the table by countless official documents, and I was unable to move, and I was covered with a large seal of the Governor, and the officials who ran up and down almost broke the stairs, and the Governor slapped the table and cursed people even more frequently......

Every once in a while, Fischette's guard came to me with a message to calm down, and at last he simply stood across from me, holding up a wooden sign with the words "Calm down" written on it.

The busy days made me have less time to spend with my ladies, and Master Ben fell asleep at the table for a few days before being carried back to the study by the rock. I really don't know how the governors of other provinces are appointed, how do they have time to spend time in addition to their official duties?

If it weren't for my father's timely arrival, my miserable days would have continued.

Hearing the news of my father's arrival, I pushed away the subordinates around me who were still reporting to me on government affairs, and ran towards the back building of His Majesty.

Although my father's spirit was fine, he was much thinner than the last time we met, and his neatly combed hair was silvery.

"Uncle Visu, look at the appearance of our Governor Cohen. Seeing me rushing into the room in a hurry, Fichette counted me down in front of everyone: "I remember that in the few days that Cohen was in charge of government affairs, the officials in the entire provincial government department who were not scolded could be counted on one hand. ”

"Ahh I shouted aloud: "They have done something wrong, shouldn't they be scolded?"

"Tell me about it. Fischette said, "What did they do wrong?"

"They're unrepentant. I crooked my nose: "I can clearly say something in one sentence, but I have to say five sentences to you......"

"Understand, understand, don't say any more. Fichette raised his hand to stop me: "Now that Uncle Visso has arrived, your hard days are over. ”

"What do you mean by that?" I asked delightfully.

"It's Cohen. The father explained on the side: "Your Majesty knows that you are in a hurry, and the Governor's Mansion cannot hold you down, so let me handle your internal affairs." And you can concentrate on military affairs. ”

I was overjoyed. He picked Fichette up. Sharp circles.

"What's going on, Cohen!" the father cried out, "not yet!"

I put Fischette down, only to notice that everyone in the large room was sweating on their foreheads...... I just came to my senses, and I was going to be punished for going around in circles with my majesty, but fortunately there were no outsiders here.

"It's okay, it's okay. Instead, Fischette excused me: "He was so excited. ”

"That's not going to work, Your Majesty. It seems that Dad is very concerned about this: "The law of courtesy cannot be crossed, and Cohen must be punished." Chen Jian yì demoted his knighthood by one level. ”

Hug it and downgrade......

"Uncle Weisu, I understand your intentions. Fischette was stunned, touched his forehead and said, "But my personal relationship with Cohen is different, and there are times when etiquette does not bind our friendship. ”

"But your majesty ......," the father insisted, "you are now your majesty, and the governors of the whole country are watching you." Every move you make is about the big picture. Cohen is this kind of personality again, if he is not restrained, who knows what amazing things he will do in the future?"

"Cohen is the governor of a province, and his sudden demotion will also arouse the suspicion of other governors. Fichette said, "It's better not to fall." ”

"The minister insists on ......"

I could only stand by obediently and listen to the two of them discuss the punishment for me. It's shameless to be a governor like this.

"Okay! I'll downgrade Cohen's title by one level. In the end, Fichette said helplessly: "But now the situation is special, this order will not be announced to the public, we know it." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

"Uncle Weisu, you just arrived, and you should have been given a break. Fischette sat down and said, "But there are some things that cannot wait, so I have to ask you to be tired a little longer." ”

This is the duty of a minister. ”

"Very well, Governor Cohen. Fischette turned to me and said, "I beg you to order that your highest military and political officials be summoned to me at once, and that we will hold a meeting." ”

"Yes!"

Although there are two military and political officials, there are few top officials, and there are two army commanders, general staff officers, and general army judges on the military side, and there are only three internal affairs supervisors on the internal affairs side...... Everyone sat across the tables, and I saw that there were too few people on the side of the internal affairs, so I ignored Marfa's pleading expression, and insisted that he, the chief liaison officer, should be assigned to the internal affairs.

"Everybody's there, so let's get started. Fichette said: "The main purpose of this meeting is to discuss the future strategy with everyone and determine the division of labor for everyone. ”

"As you all know, we only control the scope of the two provinces of Dark Moon and Darkness at the moment. Fichette pointed to the map on the table: "But there are few men, there are many affairs, and there is still war, so I have just discussed with Governor Visso, and let him take charge of the internal affairs of the two provinces." ”

"I'm in favor of that. Kelly said: "Cohen is so impatient when dealing with government affairs that the swearing can be heard from afar. ”

"However, there are many practices in the Dark Province that Darkmoon can learn from. "Governor Wissaud's management of the internal affairs of the two provinces not only allows for coherence in government affairs, but also fills the gap left by Governor Cohen's inexperience," Fichette said. ”

I couldn't help nodding my head again and again, because I knew very well in my heart that there were really many loopholes in the government affairs in the province.

"Also, Jack, the chief military judge, has to go out of the army independently, and he is young and needs to be taught the most. Fischette continued: "Study with me and Governor Visso for a while, and then become the Lord Chancellor." Marfa's position as a liaison officer can no longer be attached to the army, and must be independent. ”

"That's good. I nodded and said, "These two positions cannot be limited to the military system, Jack is the judge, and Marfa's intelligence system should also play a greater role." They can't learn anything more by fighting with me, and sooner or later my future will be ruined. ”

"Your Majesty, what about Governor Cohen?" asked Jack.

"Governor Cohen! His strengths are more in the military. Fichette smiled slightly: "So we let him free his hands and concentrate on the military." ”

"But. This time, it was Fei Lin who spoke: "Cohen's ability to control the army is good, but can he really pick up this burden now?"

"I know what you're worried about, but I didn't make it clear. "We're not asking Cohen to be in charge of all the military affairs in the two provinces. In fact, in Cohen's style, it was not suitable to command the armies of the previous Darkmoon. And what about his own army! I am afraid that no one else can control it. Governor of Visso. Tell us about Darkmoon's military affairs. ”

Hear Fichette say that. I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"That's right. During the period of His Majesty Kremmer, Darkmoon had a certain number of troops and a number of standing supplies, but this was a secret, and there were only three people in the entire empire who knew about it, and we were not prepared at the beginning of the rebellion, and we were caught off guard. "But now this army has been fully assembled, and the total number is seventy thousand," said the father. Luther served as commander. ”

"That's great!" I said in surprise, "I've been worried about the defense of the Dark Moon!"

"Don't be happy just yet. The Dark Moon Province is different from the Dark Province, the Dark Moon faces the sea on one side and is connected to the Dark Moon on the other, and there is only one direction that really needs to be defended. Fichette said: "And the Darkmoon Province borders the other four provinces, and the area to be defended is too large, and these 70,000 troops, plus the garrison army of the Darkmoon itself, can only barely form a defensive line, and it can't help you at all." ”

My soaring love was hit.

"It is precisely because of this that you are the only one who can open up the situation now, Cohen!" the father continued: "You don't have to worry about internal affairs at all, and we are also responsible for the logistics of the army." ”

"What do you ......" I blinked, "what do you want me to do?"

"We want you to fight. The father said very strictly, "We ask of you." Win a few battles in a row in the shortest possible time!"

"This is the shortest amount of time......" I licked my lips, "how do I understand this?"

"A month. The father said, "We only have this time." ”

"But I don't have many people on my hands, and the troops that can be pulled out to fight are only three legions. I said, "And the brute of Ruman may not send an army to fight us in this month!"

"Actually, you guessed it. The father said: "There is no military operation in Luman now. He has begun to co-opt other governors who have not yet reneged on us, trying to isolate us completely. ”

"That's ......," I said unexpectedly, "Is there still no news from the Light Protoss?"

"I'm afraid so, the ability of the three cardinal priests should not be underestimated. Fichette said, "They can't do anything else, but it's okay to keep the Light Protoss out for a short time...... Maybe the Light Protoss itself is also watching. If Lu Man is in control, the Bright Protoss will not have to waste time to come out and clean up the mess. ”

"It seems that Luman spent a lot of money. I exhaled, "The three cardinal priests also weighed heavily on him. ”

"Of course, he even sent a letter to your father and two brothers, promising good terms, we don't know how long the governors of the other provinces will last, and I heard that Luman's messengers all go with wagons full of gold coins. Fichette's face was heavy: "Our situation is not optimistic. ”

"Don't worry, my majesty. I stood up and said, "Isn't it just a war? ”

The red-clothed left priest let his chamberlain release the "Water Mirror Technique" in the room, and single-mindedly tidied up his appearance.

He was very pleased with his brand new robe, the bright red velvet material was trimmed with white satin, and the various symmetrical patterns embroidered with gold thread were quite delicate, from the neckline to the hem, and the cut up and down were very well fitted.

"How's it going?" he asked, as he asked the chamberlain beside him, "or the neckline of the robe should be tightened next time, and the embroidery of this gold thread is a little heavy." ”

"You fit this robe perfectly. The chamberlain smoothed a wrinkle in the hem of the robe with his hand, and said flatteringly, "As for the question of the gold thread, I heard that the royal tailors of Ban Sai can already set pieces of precious stones in the robe." ”

"Gem slices?" said Zuo Priest with some dissatisfaction, "Can the priest's robe also be inlaid?"

"I heard that magic gems or crystals are cut into thin slices using a special technique, and then cut into long strips the size of gold threads. The chamberlain hurriedly explained, "Not only is the color bright, but also lightweight, and it is very suitable for inlay on the priest's robe, and others who want to do so are not qualified!"

"Although you have been in this temple all day, you are well informed, who told you this?" Zuo Priest stretched out his hand: "Hat." ”

The chamberlain carefully picked up the hat on the table next to him and put it on for the Zuo Priest.

"Someone came from the Bansai Empire before the war, and I haven't had a chance to sue you. The chamberlain served carefully: "Is this good?"

"Today's meeting is more formal, and let's go a little bit higher, yes, that's it. Zuo Priest carefully adjusted the height of his hat: "Your cousin is the priest of the Bansai Temple, right!

"Yes, there are more vacancies in the Bansai Temple this time, he wants to ......"

"He wants?" Zuo Priest snorted lightly, "How old is he to want to be a high priest?"

Hearing Lord Zuo say this, the face of the attendant darkened: "The master taught ...... lesson."

Zuo Priest sighed, stretched out his hand, and rubbed the back of his hand against the waiter's face, and the waiter's face slowly blushed.

"Sue your cousin, you have to take your time in this matter, anyway, the temple in the capital is not so easy to manage. Feeling the delicate skin of the attendant, Zuo Priest had already made arrangements: "After this time, I will go to a medium temple for a few days, and then I will hand over the high priest of Bansai to him, so that others will not be able to gossip." ”

"Thank you, sir. The inner attendant looked back at the left priest with "affectionate" eyes, and kissed the left priest's finger carefully.

Just when Zuo Matsuri felt hot flashes, the bell by the hall door rang.

The chamberlain hurriedly walked out, and came back in a short time to report.

"Your Excellency, you are the attendant of the chief priest. The chamberlain, dressed in white, stood aside, his face had regained his calmness, and he said respectfully, "Lord Priest asked you to go to his room to discuss something." ”

Zuo Priest nodded, walked out of his dormitory, and came to the passage through seven doors in a row, and the retinue behind him had increased to ten, all of them were young priests with handsome faces.

As soon as you enter the main priest's room, the door behind you is immediately closed.

The Left Priest was a little surprised, because the Cardinal Priest had already released a magical barrier to block sound.

"Why are you here now!" the red-clothed chief priest glared at a pair of small eyes and roared loudly, "What are you rubbing in?"

"I'm going to meet with the white-clothed priests who have come to report on their work, so of course I'll have to prepare. Seeing that the right priest on the side was patting his head and going around in circles, the left priest couldn't help but wonder: "What happened to make you like this?"

"Lu Man, that waste!" the Chief Priest gritted his teeth and handed over a scroll: "And the Demon Alliance, they messed things up!"

The left priest took the scroll in horror and looked at it as fast as he could, while the chief priest was thundering on the side.

"Liar, shameless liar, no one in the Demon Alliance can be trusted, how can they let that scoundrel Cohen come back alive, and even let him bring back an army!" the chief priest slammed the table, sweat on his forehead drenched a few strands of loose hair: "And that rubbish of Luman, who actually let Fischette escape! This person was chosen by the two of you, and it has nothing to do with me...... You have to take responsibility!"

After Zuo Shang finished reading the scroll, clear green tendons appeared on the back of his hand, a wrinkled face was pale, and the eyes of the Yin Owl reappeared...... Cohen and Fischette are safe and sound, which means that they will be unlucky, and the betrayal of the Ninth Legion in order to cover up the scale of the defeat will definitely be known to everyone, and the rebellion in the Holy Capital will also be revealed! (To be continued......)
