Serov, who lived nearest, faintly heard some noises in the inner courtyard, and was the first to rush over, wanting to see what was going on.
I saw the master enjoying tea leisurely, with a very contented look on his face.
The fat man was lying on the ground with his arms stretched out.
He looked pale and looked exhausted.
"This is this?" Serov asked in surprise.
"Ah! It's nothing! I have nothing to do and teach my disciples how to do it!" the master said with a smile.
How does his expression resemble that of a world-famous master?
He is like a social elder who has just finished teaching his younger brother a lesson!
"Oh! That's it. It's rare that you masters and disciples are so elegant now!" Serov also laughed.
"You can't accept it! A master is a master! His actions and actions are unpredictable!" he thought to himself.
"Uncle President, if you join forces with me, can you fight with my master and both sides suffer?" The fat man struggled to get up and asked feebly.
"Haha! My nephew is so funny! Have you met the queen? What did she say?" Serov is an old fox with many years of experience, so he changed the subject without offending him.
"Hmph! Let's do it again after I practice for ten days and a half!" Fatty secretly made up his mind to wait a few days before asking the master for advice.
With a smile on his face, he asked Serov to sit down and poured tea for the two old men.
"The Queen said that she indeed did not send an invitation to Rus. This time the mediation team came and was contacted by Gammel. The Queen did not have any involvement in this matter!" The fat man started talking about business while rubbing his butt.
"Yeah! Okay! Then this matter is a conspiracy! The invitation I received before has the Queen's seal, which cannot be faked! It seems that someone is pretending to be the Queen's name to plan this matter!" Serov's smile faded.
, said in a deep voice.
"Uncle, what's Ruhr's attitude toward Su Lier's current situation?" the fat man suddenly asked.
Serov glanced at the master sitting beside him and was about to speak, but the fat man followed up with another sentence.
"Uncle, you are an old friend of my mentor and the master of my two sworn brothers. In my heart, I treat you the same as I treat my own master. However, I also know that in your position, you should plan your political affairs.
Reason. Therefore, I hope you will tell me the truth about what I just asked. If it is not convenient for you to tell me, just pretend that I didn't ask. I just don't want to hear you say something that goes against your will!"
"Hahaha!" Serov laughed.
He ignored the fat man, but said to the master: "You, a great disciple, have a lot of twists and turns in your heart! He keeps saying that he treats me as he treats his master. Could it be that he talks to you in the same way?"
"My apprentice lacks nothing but a beating. Old friend, if you are interested, you might as well teach him two moves! He will definitely be grateful to you!" the master said with a sinister smile.
"Oh! Uncle Boss, don't listen to my master. How could he praise his apprentice so blatantly? I'm so embarrassed! Let's get down to business first!" The fat man said cheerfully without any embarrassment.
"Hey! Are you embarrassed? In terms of thick skin, I'm afraid your master and I combined can't be better than you!" Serov thought to himself.
He stopped joking and said solemnly to the fat man: "My dear nephew, I understand what you mean. I don't blame you for having such worries. Indeed, as the foreign minister of a country, I always put the national interests first when I speak and act.
First."
Speaking of this, Serov became a little excited.
He calmed down a little, and then continued: "However, I can swear to the Lord God that I believe in, I will always treat you and the master with sincerity. Even if one day, we are on a hostile stance, I may kill
I will abandon you, but I will never tell you what I mean."
The fat man was startled when he heard this. He quickly stood up and saluted respectfully: "Uncle! I can't speak! You don't have to be like this. I believe what you say!"
The master also raised his hands to Serov in confusion and said: "Old friend! What's wrong with you?"
Serov asked the fat man to sit down first, and then said: "What I said is for the mother and daughter of Xiler. The Chahan family first gave me life-saving grace, and then showed kindness to me. They failed to repay me.
I am willing to do whatever their kindness allows me to do. The master and his nephew take great care of Xi Laer and his daughter, and they regard them as relatives. I see all this. I am grateful to you before it is too late.
How can you say something you don't mean?"
Having said this, he stood up and left his seat.
"To express your gratitude, please accept my obeisance!" Saying this, Serov knelt down to the master and the fat man.
How dare the fat man accept such a courtesy from him? He quickly stepped aside.
The master sat still and only waved his sleeves. Serov could no longer bow.
He felt a soft and moist attention coming from him, his whole body felt refreshed, and his excitement was relieved a lot.
"Since we are friends, do we still need to do these common etiquettes? Don't do this, don't make the younger generations laugh!" the master said calmly.
Serov had no choice but to stand up, already in tears.
"Uncle! Don't do this! If someone sees you, tell your two thunderous apprentices that I made you cry so angry, why don't they chop me up?! Just take pity on me, first
Stop the magic!" The fat man hurriedly helped Serov up, talking nonsense.
But he thought in his heart: "This old man is also a kind-hearted person, just like his two precious apprentices. It is not difficult to repay a favor for a while, but what is difficult is to always remember this kindness!"
At this time, after what the fat man said, Serov just wanted to laugh, how could he cry?
"Yeah! This kid is really good at coaxing people! From now on, I don't know how many people will be submissive to him!" The master laughed but felt helpless at the same time.
By the time Serov sat down again, his mood had stabilized.
After this, Xerofu suddenly felt that he was much closer to the master and the fat man, and felt much more comfortable in his heart.
"Let's not talk about the past. Let's talk about the attitude of Luers first! During the Chahan era, our relationship with Su Lier was very good. After that, although Luers' regime changed, the relationship with Su Lier has never been the same.
Nothing has changed. We will always support the Suril royal family! This attitude is very clear and resolute," he said loudly.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The master nodded slightly and said nothing.
The fat man thought for a while and said: "Then what if the attitude of McCann and other countries is to establish a new king, or to completely change the current political situation of Suriel and change the monarchy to a republic. How will Ruhr prepare to respond?
?”
"Humph! It seems that I expected it right! How similar is this trick to what they did to Rus before? It is simply the same!" Serov said with a sneer.
"Oh?! Can you tell me more specifically?" the fat man asked.
"That's a long story! I'm just telling you, if things have come to this point, then they must have been preparing for this for no less than five years. Who is the new king they want to elect? Could it be that bastard Scotton?
?" Serov is indeed a veteran in the political arena, and he can deduce the matter in a few words.
"Hey! I'm afraid it's the man you mentioned, Scott!" The fat man admired the "uncle's" vision very much.
"It is indeed this bastard! He has been stationed in the Eastern Region all year round, bordering our country. Although we are not usually very friendly, we can get along well with each other. I never expected that he would attack my mission and even pursue it! I
I was still confused at first, but now I finally understand! It seems that he wants to use our heads to surrender to McCann!" Serov said, snapping the case and getting excited again.
"Don't be angry, uncle! Sit down and talk, sit down and talk!" the fat man quickly persuaded.
"Old friend, you have been through a rough journey and were hunted down again. Although the injuries were not as severe as the internal organs, it did not cause too many emotional fluctuations!" the master also said.
Serov slowly sat down, but his chest was still heaving violently.
"If I don't avenge this, how can I be worthy of my more than one hundred subordinates who died in vain! Tonight, Sigdon will give up! Otherwise, I will definitely meet him!" He roared angrily.
Hearing the "thunder" coming again, Fatty felt helpless.
He thought to himself that the Foreign Minister looked gentle, but his temper was like a fiery fire. Could it be that he was a man from the market when he was young?
With this temper, you want to engage in diplomacy?
Ruhrs really has a different way of employing people and has a different style!
"Uncle! Time is a little tight! Let's finish talking about the important things first, and then discuss how to take revenge!" the fat man suggested.
Serov also knew that this was not the time to lose his temper.
He took a good breath and said: "The power of Luers is indeed not as good as before. However, the centipede will never die. No matter how we decline, we will not become a lackey who relies on others. We will always stand by Su Lier
On the side of the royal family. If Scotton dares to use despicable tricks to usurp the throne, we will never support him! What awaits him will definitely be a severance of diplomatic relations, or even war! This is the attitude of Rus!"
"This tone! So hard!" The fat man secretly praised.
He suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he continued to ask: "Scotton's attack on the Ruhr mission must have been instigated by someone else. Otherwise, why would he want to make an enemy for himself when a big event was about to happen? And he could instigate it.
The person who did this must be from McCann's side. So what was the purpose of McCann instructing him to do this? Is it just to make Scotton and Ruhrs enemies?"
"Good nephew! What else is there to think about? Forcing Sigdon to become our enemy will, first of all, break the ally relationship between Sulu and Sulu, which is dependent on each other and watch each other. Secondly, once the two countries are at odds, in order to fight against us,
Threat, Scotton will inevitably rely more on McCann. In this way, can he still not obey McCann? Third, Ruhrs is east of Suriel. Once the relationship is severed, trade between them will inevitably stagnate.
.As a result, Suril had no choice but to increase trade cooperation with Yezlir in the east and Telji in the north. This result is probably what these two countries most want to see! This is a poisonous plan that kills three birds with one stone.
!" The more Serov spoke, the angrier he became, and the angrier he became, the more he felt that he was right.
As the foreign minister, he thinks about these things all day long.
Having said this, the vision is indeed broad and clear.
The fat man nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and then said: "Uncle, what you said makes sense. But there is still something I don't understand. You just said that what McCann and other countries are doing now is different from what they did to Ruhr in the past.
Basically the same. If this is the case, wouldn’t the current people in power in Ruhr have also been supported by McCann from generation to generation? Then, why would McCann provoke a conflict between two regimes that he supports? This is not a divorce.
I farted in my pants, is this unnecessary?"
His words were vulgar, but his questions were to the point.
"Okay! Boy, just because you can ask these questions, if you enter politics in the future, you will definitely become a powerful figure!" Serov praised.
He didn't wait for the fat man to be humble, and then continued: "In fact, McCann has always done this. Even when dealing with allies, he is no exception. Think about it, as the eldest brother, if someone is disobedient, of course he must bring his younger brothers with him.
Go and deal with them. But once the opponents are lying down, or have surrendered and become the new younger brother, what should the elder brother do? If the younger brothers are always in peace with each other and keep their duties, why should the elder brother be needed?
What's the use? Therefore, the wise elder brother will occasionally provoke conflicts between the younger brothers. Then he will mediate. In this way, how powerful is he?! Not only can he continue to maintain a sense of authority, but he can also get more
Allegiance and benefits.”
Listening to the uncle's explanation, the fat man basically concluded that the other party must be a big brother in society.
Just listen to "Big Brother" continue to say: "The same is true for the relationship between countries. McCann can even instigate conflicts among his own allies, let alone countries that have surrendered like Ruls and Suriel? That's right.
As the saying goes, 'If you're not afraid of being punched in the eye, how can you still be afraid of being punched in the eye socket'?"
Oops! I’ve never heard of this slang! Another trick I learned!
The fat man began to admire "big brother"'s eloquence.
Seeing the fat man's humbly accepting teachings, Serov suddenly felt that he was more dignified in front of the master.
He said with some pride: "However, there is one thing you are wrong about. Although the current people in power in Rus are still descendants of the political leaders who opposed the rule of the Chahan royal family, they have also received support from McCann on the surface.
But in fact, when the Ruhr head of state changed his post five years ago, he was not McCann's first choice."
Fatty's heart skipped a beat, and he felt that this was what really felt "wrong" about him, but he couldn't explain it clearly.
He quickly asked Serov to continue.
The boss acted like a "big brother", took a sip of tea, and said calmly: "No one would have thought that McCann's first choice back then was actually a member of the Chahan family. According to my analysis, this person,
It is very likely that he is the husband of the eldest princess. This is not a random guess. The matter was said by my benefactor, Father Ironwood (Silaire's grandfather). Although he did not specify which member of the family he was, I concluded that he was.
It’s this person.”
"The eldest princess's husband, isn't that Xi Laer's brother-in-law?" The fat man felt that this matter was of great importance, and might even be related to the subsequent tragedy that happened to the Chahan family.
It's just that I don't have time to analyze this matter now.
"Why did they make such a choice?" The fat man looked serious and spoke urgently.
"Hmph! It's not because our current head of state, like his predecessor, also has his own political opinions. And he is also an extreme nationalist! Such a person may temporarily join some forces in order to reach the top of power.
But once something happens, it will be very difficult to control! How could those people in McCann not see this clearly?!" Serov said coldly.
It is obvious that he is not satisfied with the current people in power in Ruhr.
"So, McCann Mingli supported the current successor, but secretly selected someone from the Chahan family as his first choice. Later, he may have been rejected by the Chahan family, or something happened, so he was chosen by the current successor.
The Ruhr head of state is enjoying his success and seizing the opportunity to gain power." The fat man's eyes lit up as he expressed his inference.
Serov cast an appreciative look at the fat man and said, "I don't know the specific situation, but I'm afraid that's the fact."
The fat man looked deeply and felt a chill rising from his feet to the top of his head.
He needs to reconsider all previous arrangements.
Otherwise, it is very likely that everything will end in a loss.
On the big tree outside the side hall, the powerless autumn cicada is enjoying the last ray of the setting sun on the horizon.
Behind it, a green mantis was approaching quietly.
Catch the cicada and the mantis can survive for a few more days.
However, neither the mantis nor the cicada knew.
They are just another delicious meal for the oriole high up on the branch of a tree!
***The author has something to say***
Master: Is the oriole necessarily the oriole? Could it also be the "autumn cicada" in the eyes of others?!
