After leaving the banquet hall and entering the backyard, Kelly's cheeks were still bulging.
"Cohen." Finally, Kelly said to me angrily: "Why are you so polite to them? They are really ungrateful!"
I stopped and Feilin looked at each other and smiled.
"Here!" I pointed to the small stone table where I had "negotiated" with Feilin a few days ago and said, "Let's sit here."
Kelly was still angry, and Wen Sili smiled and pulled her over, then asked her to sit down.
"According to the wishes of our Internal Affairs Supervisor Kaili," I said with a smile, "Is it necessary to put a knife on their necks?"
"That's not what I want to think." Kelly said, "In fact, isn't it because of you, Cohen, that they are here alive? Why do they dare to be so domineering? It's so uninteresting!"
"The leader of a small tribe is naturally not as knowledgeable as the heads of several large foreign tribes! If he has a good physique, can speak a language that can communicate with others, or is it hereditary, how much better can his qualities be?" I held Kelly's hand.
: "We should be more tolerant and give them some time to learn."
"But their attitude is really excessive!" Kelly said, "I really want to beat them to pieces."
"You can't do this! Although they asked me for an official position, there is no problem with their loyalty, which means they are a little thick-skinned." I shook my head and said, "Besides, half of the 150,000 troops in the province are from their clan.
If you touch them rashly, it will lead to instability in the morale of the army."
"But I'm still worried." Kelly said worriedly: "There is such a big gap between them and officials at all levels in the Department of the Interior. How can we work together in the future?"
"Haha." I said with a smile: "Do we need to work together?"
Kelly opened her eyes wide and asked, "But didn't my sister say that we should let them become members of parliament?"
"But did your sister say who the congressman cares about? Congressman! You have to enter the academy to study before you can become one." I smiled even more happily: "After being tortured by Lorenzo, do you think they can still be like this?
"
"Then what exactly is a congressman..."
"They can hold meetings with the top executives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and can also meet with their husbands and His Majesty. Their status is similar to that of senior officials." Feilin said with a smile: "It's very beautiful, but they don't have any real power."
"So that's it!" Kelly suddenly realized: "I've been worried for nothing."
"So! My dear Mrs. Kelly can no longer pretend to be cannibalistic towards them." I said: "In fact, the people of the Thirty-Six Tribes are very hard-working, and they themselves are simple in nature.
They have a very serious inferiority complex. Take your time and we can change them."
"But..." Kelly pouted and said, "When I see them, I can't help but get angry."
"This is because you lack understanding of them. Knowing your husband, why should I accommodate them?" I said, "That's because during the Battle of Tucheng, I saw another side of them. They also have valuable things in them. These
The leaders are the most cunning among the more than one million people."
"Okay..." Kelly reluctantly agreed, "I'll try to do it."
"By the way." I turned to Feilin and asked: "Why did His Majesty send wine at that time? Did you arrange it?"
"I'm not afraid that you'll lose your temper." Felin glanced at me and said, "Before the meeting ended, I had someone notify His Majesty."
"Thank you. Without you three, I really wouldn't be able to cope with these scenes."
"Ah - our husband's mouth has become so sweet, he must have some bad intentions." Kelly exaggeratedly said: "Sister, ignore him, Winsly, let's get rid of him."
Wen Sili promised, but she looked at me with a tender face and didn't do anything. Feline also stopped Kelly from continuing to mess around, and the four of them laughed and chatted. As a poor governor, I am often on the road, so it is rare to be able to talk to my wife like this.
We talked freely and everyone cherished this opportunity...
Of course, the governor went to the study alone in the end. How much determination does it take to break away from the tenderness of the three beautiful ladies? I am definitely a model figure who can sit back and relax.
In terms of this firmness of mind, absolutely no one can compare...
In the next two days, I had almost no chance to walk down the front hall. Countless official documents pressed me to the table and I couldn't move. My hands were swollen even when I was stamped with the governor's seal. Officials running up and down almost almost
The stairs were broken down, and the governor slapped the table and cursed people more frequently...
Fichet's guard officer came to me every once in a while to tell me to calm down, and in the end he just stood opposite me, holding up a wooden sign with the words "calm down" written on it.
The busy days have meant that I have less time to get together with my wife. For the past few days, I have fallen asleep at the table, and then been carried back to the study by the rock. I really don’t know how they became governors of other provinces? How did they do it?
Do you still have time to have fun and have fun after work?
If my father hadn't arrived in time, my miserable days would have continued.
When I heard the news of my father's arrival, I pushed aside the subordinates beside me who were still reporting government affairs to me, and ran towards His Majesty's back chamber.
Although my father is in good spirits, he is much thinner than when we last met, and his neatly combed hair also has a silvery white color.
"Uncle Weisu, look at the appearance of our Governor Cohen." Seeing me rushing into the room in a hurry, Fischette scolded me in front of everyone: "I remember that in the past few days when Cohen was in charge of government affairs, the entire industry
You can count on one hand the number of officials in the Provincial Department of the Interior who have not been scolded."
"Ah - my dearest Majesty." I shouted injustice: "They have done something wrong, shouldn't they be scolded?"
"You should tell me," Fichet said, "What did they do wrong?"
"They! They are unrepentant." I tilted my nose: "I can explain things clearly in one sentence, but I have to tell you five sentences..."
"I understand, I understand, don't say any more." Fichet raised his hand to stop me: "Now that Uncle Weisu is here, your hard life is over."
"How do you say this?" I asked happily.
"It's like this, Cohen." His father explained at the side: "Your Majesty knows that you have a quick temper and the Governor's Mansion cannot contain you, so you let me handle your internal affairs, while you can concentrate on military affairs."
I was overjoyed, picked up Fichet and spun him around.
"What are you talking about, Cohen!" his father shouted loudly: "Don't stop!"
I put Fichet down, and then I realized that everyone in the room was sweating on their foreheads... Then I realized that I would be punished for carrying His Majesty around in circles. Fortunately, there were no outsiders here.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." On the contrary, Fichet excused me: "He is too excited."
"This is not acceptable, Your Majesty." It seems that my father cares about this very much: "The etiquette of monarchs and ministers cannot be exceeded. Cohen must accept punishment. I suggest that his title be lowered by one level."
Just hug him and he will be downgraded...
"Uncle Weisu, I understand what you mean." Fichet was stunned and touched his forehead and said: "But my personal relationship with Cohen is different. Sometimes, etiquette cannot restrain our friendship."
"But your Majesty..." his father insisted: "You are now your Majesty, and all the governors of the country are watching you. Every move you make is related to the overall situation. Cohen has this temperament. If there is no restraint, who will
Do you know what amazing things he will do in the future?"
"Cohen is the governor of a province, and a sudden demotion will also arouse the suspicion of other governors." Fischette said: "It is better not to surrender."
"I insist..."
I could only stand aside obediently and listen to the two of them discussing my punishment. It was really shameful for a governor to treat me like this.
"Okay! Uncle Weisu, I will lower Cohen's title by one level." In the end, Fichet said helplessly: "But the current situation is special, and this order will not be announced to the public. We only need to know about it."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Uncle Weisu, you just arrived. I should have let you take a rest." Fichet sat down and said, "But some things cannot wait, so I have to ask you to take a rest."
"This is my duty."
"Okay, Governor Cohen." Fischette turned to me and said, "Please give me an order to summon your most senior military and political officials to come to me immediately. We are going to hold a meeting."
"yes!"
Although there are two aspects of military and political affairs, there are only a few top officials. On the military side, there are two corps commanders, a general staff officer, and a general military judge. On the internal affairs side, there are only three internal affairs supervisors... Everyone is sitting across the table. I see
Seeing that there were too few people on the Internal Affairs side, they ignored Mafa's pleading expression and forcibly assigned him, the chief liaison officer, to the Internal Affairs department.
"Everyone is here, let's get started." Fichet said: "This meeting is mainly to discuss future strategies with everyone and determine everyone's division of labor."
"Everyone knows that we currently only control the two provinces of Dark Moon and Darkness." Fichet pointed to the map on the table: "But there are few people, many affairs, and we have to fight, so I just and
Governor Weisu discussed it and asked him to take charge of the internal affairs of these two provinces."
"I agree with this." Kelly said: "Cohen is too impatient when dealing with government affairs, and his curse words can be heard from a distance."
"But! Many practices in the Dark Province are worthy of reference by Dark Moon." Fischette said: "Governor Wiseau manages the internal affairs of the two provinces, which can not only coordinate the government affairs, but also make up for the lack of experience of Governor Cohen.
The loopholes underneath.”
I couldn't help but nod my head, because I knew very well that there were indeed many loopholes in the province's government affairs.
"Also, Jack, the military judge-in-chief, has to stand alone in the army. He is young and needs teaching the most." Fichet continued: "First, he will study with me and Governor Wiseau for a period of time, and then he will become the provincial justice.
The position of liaison officer with France can no longer be attached to the army and must be independent."
"That's good." I nodded and said: "Their two positions cannot be limited to the military system. Jack is a judge, and Marfa's intelligence system should also play a greater role. They can't learn more by following me in the war.
Things, their future will be ruined in my hands sooner or later."
"Your Majesty, where is Governor Cohen?" Jack couldn't help but ask.
"Governor Cohen! His strengths are more in the military." Fischette smiled slightly: "So we let him free up his hands and focus on the military."
"But..." It was Felin who spoke this time: "Cohen's ability to control the army is good, but can he really take on this responsibility now? Your Majesty, please be careful!"
"I know what you are worried about, but I didn't explain it clearly." Fischette said: "We are not asking Cohen to be responsible for all the military affairs of the two provinces. In fact, judging from Cohen's style, he is not suitable for commanding the past.
Dark Moon’s army. And what about his own army! I’m afraid others can’t control it. Governor Weisu, tell everyone about Dark Moon’s military affairs.”
Hearing Fichet say this, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"That's it. During the period of His Majesty Creamer, Dark Moon already had a certain number of troops and a batch of standing supplies, but this was a secret. Only three people in the entire empire knew about it. We were not prepared at the beginning of the rebellion, and we were
We were caught off guard." My father said: "But now the army has been fully mobilized, with a total number of 70,000, and Martin Luther is the commander."
"This is great!" I said in surprise: "I have been worried about the defense of Dark Moon!"
"Don't be happy yet. The Dark Moon Province is different from the Dark Moon Province. One side faces the sea and the other side is connected to the Dark Moon. There is only one direction that really needs to be defended." Fichet said: "The Dark Moon Province is separated from the Dark Moon Province.
The other four provinces are bordering each other, and the area to be defended is too large. These 70,000 troops plus Dark Moon's own garrison can only barely form a defense line, and cannot help you at all."
My high spirits were dampened.
"It is precisely because of this that you are the only one who can open up the situation now, Cohen!" The father continued: "You don't have to worry about internal affairs at all. We are also responsible for the logistics of the army."
"Then..." I blinked: "What do you want me to do?"
"We want you to fight." Father said very seriously: "We want you to win several battles in the shortest possible time!"
"This shortest time..." I licked my lips: "How should I understand this sentence?"
"One month." Father said, "We only have this little time."
"But I don't have many people on hand, and the troops I can pull out to fight are only three legions." I said, "And that beast Luman may not necessarily send troops to fight us in this month!"
"Actually, you guessed it right." My father said: "Luman has not yet taken military action. He has already begun to win over other governors who have not yet rebelled, and wants to completely isolate us."
"That's right..." I said with some surprise, "Is there still no news at all from the Light God Clan?"
"I'm afraid that's the case. The abilities of the three red priests should not be underestimated." Fichet said: "They can't do anything else, but it is still possible to prevent the Light God Clan from showing up in a short period of time... maybe the Light God Clan itself
We are also waiting and watching. If Luman takes control of the situation, the Light God Clan will not have to waste time to clean up the mess."
"It seems that Luman spent a lot of money." I breathed out: "The three red priests also spent a lot of money on him."
"Of course it is. He even sent a letter to your father and two brothers, promising favorable terms. We don't know how long the governors of other provinces can hold on. I heard that Luman's messengers all bring carriages filled with gold coins.
Go." Fichet looked heavy: "Our situation is not optimistic."
"Don't worry, my Majesty." I stood up and said, "Isn't it just a war? No problem." (To be continued)
