Summer Palace, a summer resort used by the Tesin royal family.
Night had just fallen, and King George VI, who had just had dinner, was standing by the lake in a casual robe, holding bread crumbs in his hand and feeding the goldfish in the lake - this was his daily dinner after moving to the summer palace.
After activities.
Throw down a handful of bread crumbs and a school of goldfish gathers around.
And when George VI clapped his hands to show that there were no crumbs, the goldfish swam away one after another.
King George VI looked at this scene with a smile and raised his hand to signal his entourage to bring more bread crumbs.
The king of Tesin was just fifty years old. For a civilian family, he was already an old man, but for the royal family, he was still in his prime.
However, this king was not obsessed with power. Ten years ago, he divided his rights equally among his three younger brothers, allowing him to live in leisure.
Except for the regular meetings on the 1st, 10th, and 30th of every month, ministers basically cannot see the king.
Instead, I will see His Majesty the King at some cocktail parties and salons.
Naturally, some people will criticize this.
But it did not change the king's approach.
His Majesty the King smiled and promised that he would never do it again, but he still went his own way.
Tesin did not fall into chaos, but became stronger in a certain sense.
"Your Majesty, the three princes and royal highnesses have arrived."
When the attendant handed over the bread crumbs, he whispered.
"So fast?"
"It seems that what happened in the north is bigger than imagined!"
The king sighed, but slowly sprinkled the crumbs in his hand.
When the last crumbs were gone, the king clapped his hands and walked towards the small reception room of the summer palace.
The door of the reception room was open, and the king saw his three brothers at a glance.
Prince Gerald, who sits upright and has a military aura, wears a military uniform even in summer - a dress that is refined to facilitate officers to attend daily activities. Lieutenant officers and colonel officers have some special features on the sleeves.
Different, as a general, Prince Gerald has a gold star on his shoulder.
Prince Mossarik stood admiring the tulips in the small reception room. His Royal Highness had a lazy face. It seemed that he was admiring the tulips, but in fact he was yawning non-stop, looking like he had not woken up at all.
.
Prince Ronald, who had been keeping his eyes closed and concentrating, had the calmest face. He put his hands on the armrests of the sofa, folded one leg over the other, and breathed steadily and long.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting."
The king spoke first before he arrived.
Prince Gerald stood up directly and saluted respectfully.
"His Majesty!"
Prince Mosalik was slightly complaining.
"Brother, you should have time to observe."
Prince Ronald opened his eyes, smiled at King George VI, and did not speak.
"Okay, okay, I know."
The king comforted Prince Mosalik, and then walked to the sofa in the middle of the reception room. He looked at his three younger brothers and sighed: "Is it the North?"
"Well, yes, Your Majesty."
"All our ambassadors and followers in the north died two hours ago."
Prince Gerald nodded and said meticulously.
"The largest assassin organization in the north, the Shadow, has publicly placed a bounty on our heads."
Prince Mosalik looked disdainful and continued.
"Our spies have also lost contact."
Prince Ronald was the last one and said softly.
"Hahaha."
"It seems you have driven that old bear into a panic."
"Tell me, what did you do?"
When George VI heard the words of the three princes, he was not angry at all, but burst into laughter.
"Someone attacked Old Bear's nephew Goethe Wein."
"and……"
"It also left a smile on this young man's face."
Under the gaze of Prince Gerald and Prince Mosalik, Prince Ronald spoke slowly and made the so-called "smiley face" to his three brothers.
"No wonder that old bear went crazy."
King George VI nodded suddenly.
"Brother, now is not the time to sigh. What should we do?"
Prince Mosalik said directly.
"Tell me your method first."
As George VI spoke, he looked at Prince Gerald.
"I have asked the Second Group Army to be more vigilant near the northern border, and the Third and Fourth Group Armies are ready to go."
Prince Gerald said.
"I asked my men to get closer to the Shadow to see if they could blend into it and find the troublesome guy."
Mosalik continued.
"A secret force under my command has already gone to the north - they will make the Ke family in the north understand that some things cannot cross the bottom line."
Prince Ronald finally said.
This is not ultra vires.
Because this is the right given to Prince Ronald by George VI.
"Well, just do it your way."
"But you must exercise restraint."
"Our enemy is not the North."
George VI had no objection, just a reminder.
The three princes immediately bowed in response.
Afterwards, the three princes said goodbye one by one.
George VI did not leave the small drawing room, he was waiting.
About five minutes later, Prince Mossarik returned.
"Brother!"
Prince Mosalik did not salute as casually as before, but seriously saluted.
"Okay, okay."
"Don't do this."
"You are my brother."
King George VI took Prince Mosalik's hand and said with a smile.
"Brother, I have sent someone to contact the Fabol people - they promised to take action within a week and pretend to attack the 'Fort Bear'."
"And the daughter of Svetra leader also quietly gathered some soldiers who were loyal to the old master of Tesvela with our help. At this time, they came in handy."
"With internal and external troubles, that old bear's attention will definitely be attracted."
"When the time comes, cooperate with Gerald's Second Army to advance first, and the Third and Fourth Army to follow. We will be able to quickly sweep across the northern border and approach the northern capital of Hallest."
Prince Mosalik revealed his true plan.
After hearing Prince Mosalik's plan, George VI breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mossa, luckily you are here, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."
"With your abilities, you are more suitable to be this king."
"And me?"
"More suitable for rest and recuperation."
His Majesty the King looked at Prince Mosalik with gratitude.
"Brother, you are the most suitable person because you have saved me more than once."
Prince Mosalik said firmly.
Then, His Royal Highness the Prince saluted and said goodbye to King George VI again.
"Brother, I am going to ensure the success of the plan."
"Go and be safe."
George VI warned and sent Prince Mosalik to the door of the summer palace, and then reluctantly returned to the small reception room.
That Prince Ronald has been waiting for a long time.
"Your Majesty, the High Priest of the Church of Flesh and Blood, Dronstad, is willing to serve the royal family."
"And he also wrote down all the secrets of the 'Flesh and Blood Church'."
"only……"
"The way the 'Lord of Flesh' comes is beyond writing."
Prince Ronald reported.
"It's about the gods, so this is good enough - the 'Mist Killer' has done a good job in training him. If possible, continue to select some people from the 'extraordinary'."
"We need 'secret keepers', but we also need more power that is entirely our own."
"Knives shouldn't have thoughts."
King George VI said slowly.
"clear."
"There is still a secret force of mine in the northern territory. Do you want to activate it?"
Ronald asked.
"It's not needed yet. This secret force needs to be used as a decisive blow when the old bear is completely exhausted."
King George VI emphasized.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Prince Ronald nodded in agreement.
Then, just like his sudden return before, His Highness the Prince suddenly disappeared without a trace.
King George VI stood up and walked towards the lake.
"His Majesty!"
Prince Gerald put his hands on his chest and bent down to salute.
King George VI waved his hand and looked at his brother with a smile.
"Gerald, do you know why I am willing to give you my army?"
the king asked.
"Because I am the person you trust most!"
Prince Gerald replied decisively.
"certainly!"
"There is no doubt about it!"
"But the most important thing is-"
"just!"
As the king spoke, he looked directly at Prince Gerald, and he said word for word: "You are the most just person among all the people I have ever met. Only a truly just person can make soldiers brave and fearless.
Only in this way can we treat everyone equally, and not take credit for the merits of our subordinates - Tesin's belief from the founding of our country by our ancestor George I is reflected in you."
"And me?"
"It can't be done."
"I will change my position because of family ties and friendship."
King George VI smiled bitterly as he spoke.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will do it for you."
Prince Gerald promised.
"I trust you."
"So, you must know what to do in this battle with the North."
King George VI looked at Prince Gerald expectantly.
The latter responded with knighthood.
"I won't let you down."
After saying that, Prince Gerald left.
King George VI once again asked his entourage to bring some bread crumbs.
As the breadcrumbs were thrown in, the goldfish swam over again.
Just like the people around him.
Goldfish are there for food.
What about those people?
Either fame or fortune is enough.
Therefore, he could only prescribe the right medicine.
When facing someone like Mosalik who seems frivolous but actually values love and justice, treat him with emotion.
Faced with a person like Ronald who values power, give him more rights, let power become a shackles for the other person, and work hard for him.
And facing someone like Gerald who values reputation?
Then use righteousness to bind the other party.
Let the opponent be his best spear and shield.
Of course, you have to rely on yourself at the most critical moment.
"Go and remind Credor that you can act, but don't get too involved in it."
King George VI said softly.
There was a slight sway in the shadow beside him.
Calmness returned the next moment.
“Northern Territory…Northern Territory…”
"Ancestor, why do you want to leave your inheritance in the north?"
