King's Landing

The Second Element of King's Landing, Volume 8, Chapter 58, Probing and Doubt

The imperial capital, the grandeur of thousands of years, cannot be changed overnight.

General Esdes returned to the imperial squad and defeated the foreign riots on the southwest border for the empire, and established the stability of the southwest border for several years. This feat originally belonged to General Billy fell on her.

After returning to the imperial capital, Esdes and Ye were summoned by the little emperor himself, and rewarded in the hall.

It is worth mentioning that the little emperor was a little excited when he saw Ye, and almost gave him the general title, but in the end he resisted, only canonized him as a colonel, and Esdes was successfully promoted to general. Inherited the military power of General Billy.

This is the glory recognized by General Bud, the head of military commanders, and Minister Ornest, the head of civil servants. As for why General Bud nodded, I probably learned about the relationship between Esdes and General Billy. .

As the commander-in-chief of the empire, General Billy and General Bud were born and died together for the empire.Even if Esthers' achievements in suppressing the southwest border were not enough, he would read his old feelings for the sake of General Billy's death in battle, and let Esthers, the younger generation who was valued by his old comrades, inherit the status and rights that he should have.

Of course, the most important thing is that General Bud himself also very much agrees with Esther’s qualifications. As the empire’s military god, he needs to be responsible for the entire empire’s army. If Esther cannot meet his requirements, then Even if you are nostalgic, you will not let it go.

"Good job, kid!"

Except for the most powerful emperor in the empire, only the royal family and ministers were allowed to enter and exit the palace at will.

Ye and the minister sat at the same table and enjoyed a luncheon, which was a celebration banquet specially prepared by the minister for Ye.

Of course, only the two of them enjoyed this banquet.

"Your trip to the southwest border is far beyond my expectations. I am very satisfied."

The minister raised his glass to Ye.

There are only a handful of empires that can make him raise his glass.

However, Ye just nodded, and in front of the minister, he never touched his drink.

The minister didn't mind this. He only thought that Ye was still young and was not interested in drinks.

"Now that you are a school officer, you can become a general if you go further. But you are different from Esders, her background is whiter than you, and if Billy supports her, it will be easier for General Bud to pass. But Behind you is me. Budd can't help but know this. If you want to become a general, you must rely on merit and your own ability."

After a brief celebration, the minister cut to the topic.

As a real hero, he can't just be satisfied with the petty gains in front of him. Since he plans to cultivate Ye, what he values ​​is the general trend of the future, and this is also his visionary ability to sit in his current position.

"I know."

Ye nodded again, there was no change in expression on his face.

"How to make Bude nod? You plan as early as possible. All I can do is provide you with opportunities."

The minister was most satisfied with Ye's humiliation. Compared with his useless son, Ye was much better.

Having said that, the minister poured the fresh red wine from the glass in one gulp.

"Your Majesty seems to like you very much."

With a low face, the minister suddenly spoke calmly.

"Because I am your confidant."

"I feel mixed with your majesty's personal affairs."

"That's my pleasure."

"If your majesty really likes you, I can arrange you to be a servant by his side."

"I'm not interested in the housekeeper."

"That's a pity."

The brief exchanges implied a murderous intent. If Ye had the slightest hesitation, then the minister would have a crack in his heart. This was not a good sign. It seemed that the little emperor's emotional changes in the court made the minister suspicious.

The little emperor is the minister who orders the authority of the world, no matter how Ye gets his approval, he will never let him get involved with this unique authority. A mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. This world only needs one master.

Both the minister and Ye knew well.

Now the relationship between them is based on not violating each other's interests. Ye is not interested in power and the world. This allows the minister to have enough trust in him, even more important than his own son.

But if Ye expresses his love for power, then the minister will definitely turn his face away from him and get rid of him at all costs.

This is the fierceness of Xiao Xiong, who can command the world with the emperor, his blood must be cold.

The minister started eating and drinking again, as if the conversation had never happened before.

"Esdes went to General Bud."

"Of course."

"What do you think of her?"

"Shaking S female lunatic, she only likes fighting and torture."

"Really? So you don't have to worry, and you can rest assured to work with her in the future."

The malicious smile returned to the minister's face again, and the food on the table was wiped out faster.

"I heard that there are also riots in the south?"

Ye Shan flashed his eyes and started asking for the first time.

"It's just a jumping clown. It was originally intended to let you do some merit, but it has been solved."

"Is it resolved?"

"Yes, I heard that she is also a young woman like Esdes, she seems to be called Najeta or something. By the way, she will be recalled to the Imperial Capital soon. If you have a chance, try to contact him and see Is there any value worth wooing."

The minister tore at the meat and said casually.

"Nadetta? I see."

Nodding, there is an unnoticeable flicker in his eyes.

The celebration banquet became a special treat for the minister alone, and Ye quickly found an excuse to leave.

With this canonization, he not only improved his military rank, but was also rewarded with a lot of money. He even allocated a good mansion to the nearest place to the imperial city, where the little black pupils are now waiting.

By the way, Esthers refused to live in the imperial city, and took the initiative to choose the mansion near Ye. Of course, for her, it is best for Ye to live with her. Only then can she enjoy it every day.' The taste of bite.
