The sound of clinking knives and forks is endless.
"Your Majesty is now able to feed himself so skillfully. Wei Chen seems to be very pleased."
At the long dining table, Heaton and the minister sat at each end. The minister smiled and looked at Heaton opposite, with a gentle expression.
"I'm trying hard to make the ministers worry less!"
"Haha, Your Majesty is serious. Seeing that you are so sensible makes me feel relieved. You will definitely become a sage emperor in the future."
The atmosphere between the two foxes, one big and one small, was extremely harmonious.
After dinner, the minister stayed with Heaton as usual.
It's called companionship, but it's actually observing the little emperor's words and deeds, permeating the little emperor from his words, so as not to let him escape his control.
The palace is very large and has everything in it. Even the general internal officials have their own residences in the palace.
Of course, except for the emperor's permission, these internal officials would not dare to live in the palace.
Naturally, the minister's residence should be very close to the emperor's palace, but the head of the military attache with the same status, General Bude, was naturally also very close.
Bude served as the palace guard and was responsible for protecting the safety of the palace. As soon as Heaton and the minister left the restaurant, they naturally met General Bude who was guarding the door.
Seeing those strong muscles and the height that he needed to look up to, Heaton couldn't help but sigh.
This is safety!
But why did you let the minister kill my whole family?
Heaton is in trouble and can't tell, damn the plot setting.
However, this also shows the minister's control over the palace.
Not to be underestimated.
"Hey! General Bude is well."
The minister looked at Bude casually, frowning slightly, as if he saw flies in a pot of soup.
This is for sure, because there is nothing he can do against Bude!
The Bude family was canonized by the emperor when the empire was founded a thousand years ago. It is not surprising to say that it is a thousand-year-old family.
As the head of the military attache, he commands all the military attaches and also serves as the palace guard. He is deeply trusted in any era.
Naturally, the minister had been trying his best to avoid contact between the young emperor and Bude, but he just thought about it.
grass!
Why are you everywhere?
The minister disliked Bude because he was afraid of his status, but he also looked down on him because he had contempt for his intelligence.
Because the first emperor established regulations that military attachés were not allowed to interfere in government affairs, the highest decision-making power regarding national government affairs rested with the emperor, followed by the ministers, the head of the civil service.
Minister is not a title, but an official position!
Bude glanced at the minister lightly. No matter how dissatisfied he was with this minister appointed by the late emperor, he could not make any suggestions.
Military attachés are not allowed to interfere in politics, which is why the Bude family has maintained its motto for thousands of years.
"General Bude, good morning. Have you had breakfast? How about I ask the kitchen to prepare some stewed meat from a Class 1 dangerous species?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, but I have already had breakfast, so there is no need to bother with the kitchen."
Heaton was as lively as ever, asking questions to the ministers and Bude who were following behind him.
Seeing Heaton and Bude chatting and laughing, the minister felt angry and itched his teeth.
Of course, it's Heaton who laughs and Bude is a facial palsy.
"Hmm~ Minister, the general said that a champion from the National Martial Arts Conference has recently joined the army. I heard that he is very powerful. Is it true?"
"The champion of the Budokai seems to be a kid named Esdeath. He is already a centurion at a young age. He is very impressive."
The minister stopped struggling with the dangerous meat in his hand, scratched his head and recalled.
"Within Si Gao~ Minister, I also want to be a general in the future~" Heaton started to show off.
"Of course, your Majesty is the most noble person in the empire. You can do whatever you want in the future."
"snort!"
Bude on the side felt displeased when he heard this, but in the end he remained silent.
He is a person with extremely low political intelligence. He is not interested in anything else except the safety of the emperor and leading troops on expeditions. In the final analysis, he is a pure warrior.
Otherwise, it would not have happened in the original plot when the revolutionary army came to the city and the empire was facing destruction. At that time, Bude realized it later and wanted to get rid of the minister.
He knew that the chaos in the empire was caused by the ministers, but it was his own indifference that made the ministers become more impudent.
In Heaton's previous life, he had no feeling for Bude, who had a low sense of existence, but now, he feels quite miserable.
But no matter what, the man in front of me, who is more than two meters tall, burly, and has a majestic head, is his capital to settle down in the palace.
"Where are you going to play next, minister?"
Heaton took the initiative to hand over his itinerary to the minister, as he always did.
"I heard that some new dangerous species were discovered in the Gifonora Sea of Trees a few days ago. They were just delivered to me yesterday. Would your Majesty want to go and take a look?"
"Of course, I don't know if it tastes good or not."
"Your Majesty wants to eat, I'll just ask the kitchen to arrange it for you."
"Minister, you are the best!"
The group of people followed Heaton towards the backyard of the palace.
According to the normal schedule, the emperor will go to the council chamber next!
However, no minister spoke, and no one dared to raise it.
Heaton spent most of the day in the residence of the ministers behind the palace.
I saw the fourth-level dangerous species in the Gifonora Sea of Trees, a monster that looks very much like an alpaca.
The rest of the time was spent playing games with the maids following behind.
The alpacas were cute, but Heaton said they were very tired from playing with them.
It's really hard to pretend to be a child, and it's even harder when you have to add a personality.
Find a pretty girl among the maids, stay with her, and take advantage of her. Do you know how harmful this is to a three-year-old child?
According to the original plot, the little emperor was an ignorant and simple man who was brainwashed by his ministers. It was infuriating to watch, but also pitiable.
Puppet emperor, tut!
And it is precisely because of this state that there is no hope at all.
As for me, cruel, lustful, and cowardly, no matter what kind of personality I have, in the final analysis, I have my own thoughts, and there is a point of conflict with the minister, a point that is not big, not serious, but fatal.
It's a pity that I am a three-year-old child now~
At the end of the day, I returned to my bedroom early. It was not completely dark yet, but this was the only peaceful moment of the day.
Not having those eyes staring in the dark is a kind of relaxation from mind to body.
Perhaps because he had just taken over, Ernest was still on high alert and was not tired of following Heaton around all day.
It is indeed not easy for a person who is almost over 50 years old.
However, Ernest seems to have practiced at the Imperial Fist Temple!
Sitting on the bed, Heaton couldn't help but be fascinated by his eyes.
