During the National War, I still persuaded Elder Fan and Mr. Fusu to send troops to help us kill the Japanese, but I really didn't think about this issue after the National War. After going online, I just went to collect the award.
The city owner, the fat man, chuckled and said, "What kind of soup did you give them to make them come over and work for you so willingly?"
Only then did I realize that this issue is still very sensitive.
At least from the perspective of City Lord Fatty and his colleagues, those people are all rebels and dangerous people who are preparing to usurp power. How can he be insensitive?
I asked a little awkwardly: "Then what are you going to do?"
The city lord, the fat man, said hehely: "It's not my turn to make the decision in this matter! I asked you to come here just to prepare you mentally! His Majesty the King is in Silver Moon City now! As for the placement of those people, it is entirely up to His Majesty the King!
"As he spoke, his face suddenly darkened, and he continued: "If the king asks you to kill them..."
I felt cold in my heart: Does the king really want the birds to use up all their good bows? Just throw them away after using them?
At this time, the city lord, the fat man, looked very generous and put his arm around my shoulders and said, "Brother! You saved more than just Silver Moon City this time. You have done a great job! What awaits you is a great future, and it may even crack the earth."
Fenghou..."
The purpose of the city lord fat man's words is actually very obvious, that is, he hopes that I can understand my position clearly and not stand in the wrong position.
Politics is different from the battlefield.
The issue that runs through the entire political life is positioning. Once you stand in the wrong position, you will not have a chance to start over in life.
I was a little helpless. I didn't expect that at this time, I would still be forced to make my own choice.
The city lord, the fat man, patted me on the shoulder, winked and said, "Let's go! His Majesty the King is already waiting for you in the study!"
The fat man of the city lord took me out of the city lord's mansion and went straight to the great church.
The king has been in that room since he arrived and has never come out!
After the twelve guards at the door saw me, they all saluted with their attention. Although it was not the highest etiquette, it was not easy to gain the respect of these guards.
After entering the room, I found that it was still quite dark.
Even though the sun is shining brightly outside and the war has subsided, the curtains here are still tightly closed and weakly illuminated by the light of a few candles.
In the dark room, the two sisters Lilith and Rias were sitting side by side in front of the desk, and our king seemed to be immersed in reviewing a pile of documents on the desk.
"Are you here? My warrior?" The king raised his head slightly, and through the faint light I could clearly see the candlelight reflected on his metal mask.
Lilith and Rias were also very surprised and turned around.
"Little bad guy, you're here!" Rias looked surprised.
Lilith stood up relatively calmly and nodded towards me, "Well, thank you!"
I nodded lightly and smiled.
"Sit down! My warrior, your achievements will be spread throughout the country!" The king still said calmly and calmly. It could be heard from his breath that he was very tired, and he kept saying this.
Coughed a few times.
The city lord, the fat man, showed the care that an elder should have, "Your Majesty, take care of yourself!"
The king pressed his hands and said, "Sit down too! I have something important to tell you!"
After the fat man of the city sat down, the king changed his position on the chair and said to me: "I admire your courage! You have also proved yourself! I will confer you the title of Marquis of Thunder, and your original fiefdom will be
Back in your hands, I hope you will build well..."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" I could only say procedurally.
But there is still a question in my mind, and I also know that this young king will explain it. All I have to do is wait quietly.
"Great, little rascal! You are now a Marquis!" Rias shouted happily, "When you get off the line, you have to treat me to dinner to celebrate!"
Lilith pulled Rias, maybe because she thought it was too rude to do this in front of the king.
The king just raised his hand indifferently and continued: "Besides, the kingdom has no extra land for you. If you don't mind, all the Freya Mountains in the kingdom will be divided into your territory!"
Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, this is nothing? Just give me the entire slender mountain range as my territory?
But in my opinion, the meaning is completely different.
I was very excited inside. Although this king was hidden under a cold metal mask, I could feel that he was actually a gentle and considerate person.
The king continued: "You have the right to make decisions on everything in the territory as long as it does not violate the security of the kingdom!"
I couldn't help but said with great excitement: "Thank you, Your Majesty the King!"
"However, my warrior, I need to remind you!" the king said weakly, "not all people are as kind as you! You take care of yourself!"
I understand what the king means. He is a great wise king.
He did not forcefully interfere or make decisions, but gave me the greatest freedom to resolve this sharp internal conflict in my own way.
This is undoubtedly very wise!
On the premise of not touching the interests of the existing rulers, it can also take into account the demands of the Qin people to the greatest extent.
The king is really no ordinary person!
"Go! Go to your territory and have a look! You will find surprises!" the king said lightly.
But Rias said happily: "My sister and I will go too!"
The city lord, Fatty, seemed to have other things to talk about when he was left behind, so naturally it was inconvenient for me to stay there.
I brought the two sisters Lilith and Rias back to my Thunder City, just like the king said, this was a big surprise for me.
Originally, the half-dead building I built had finally advanced to the village and town level, but when I came back to look at it, it had already advanced to the fortress level.
This kind of leap cannot be described in words. If I were allowed to continue building, I would not be able to reach the fortress level even if I was given another month. But after being taken back by the city lord, Fatty, within a few days, my village was completely transformed.
It is a fortress level. Although it is definitely incomparable to Iserlohn Fortress, it has already begun to take shape, and the general outline can already be seen.
City Lord Fatty is not belittling me, but helping me secretly!
You can justifiably help me get half of the city!
"Wow!" Even Rias was surprised. After all, we had only been away for a few days, but now the Thunder City has completely changed.
"This is your territory?" Lilith also looked at me a little surprised.
I only got this fiefdom during the period when she was imprisoned, so when she first came here it was already like this, so of course I was very curious.
"Let's go! Let me show you around!" I said pretending to be free and easy. In fact, it was also my first time here after being upgraded to the fortress level!
