Chapter 1223 Lord Du An
In the royal capital, Sindmoor, there was a private reception at the Grand Hotel. Officials, businessmen and nobles brought their wives and children, chatting and communicating with each other, and making friends with dignitaries they wanted to know. Such receptions are very common in political centers like the capital of a country. Even though this way of making friends is extremely hypocritical, people of some status enjoy it. What's more, today's private reception was hosted by Du An, who is currently the most popular king in the capital. Trusted minister.
Among the invited guests, in addition to local officials and businessmen, there were also some foreign ambassadors. Although it was a private reception, the standards were very high. Halfway through the drinking party, the exchanges became more and more enthusiastic. Duan was holding a red wine glass and people kept coming to talk to him. He had just chatted with a family here, and another powerful person came over there.
"Lord Du An, you have been really busy recently."
"Haha." Du An said with a smile: "The capital has just experienced great changes, so it is appropriate to be busy. As a minister of His Majesty , serving the country wholeheartedly can also make up for my mistake of not distinguishing right from wrong and becoming a member of Zalberg’s party.”
"Hey, Sir Du An is now a man of the hour in the royal capital. You and Halls are now His Majesty's most trusted people. I still need your help for many things. When His Majesty the King suppressed the rebellion, I fainted for a moment. "Head, I didn't express my support clearly for His Majesty. In fact, I still stood by His Majesty in my heart. It's just that Zalberg was too powerful at the time and I didn't dare to express my stance clearly." The noble looked at Duan expectantly.
Duan smiled: "Your Majesty will sweep away the rebels. Those you have to deal with are Zalberg's private henchmen. Others will not be affected. Don't worry, Mr. Bison."
Bison smiled with satisfaction after hearing this: "My family is still very influential in the royal capital. If Lord Duan has any difficulties in the future, I will definitely try my best to help." He said with a face His expression straightened again, and he leaned forward and whispered: "But recently, rumors about the capital being unfavorable to the king have been circulating everywhere. Although it is said that the Prisoner's Gate is guilty of crimes, the spearhead alludes to the fact that His Majesty the King was trying to gain gains when he suppressed the rebellion. Support, regardless of the fact that the Prisoner's Gate has done something to protect the criminals. There is a lot of public opinion in the capital about this matter. I think this is probably the trick of the Prince Judgment."
Du An said: "I have also heard that your Majesty is not very aware of this matter. The empire is currently focusing on the frontline battlefields and the elimination of the prince's remnant party. You understand that your Majesty needs to do this to Demon Moon. To establish his position, the battle between the Holy Demon and the Holy Demon is the focus of His Majesty's concern. Supporting the King and winning the war is the best way to truly gain His Majesty's trust. You must understand What is important now? As for the rumors, everyone already knows that this is Zalberg's last desperate attempt. Don't pay too much attention to it. I will ask Mr. Halls to severely investigate and deal with the rumors. People."
Bisen said: "Yes. I learned a lot from what Mr. Duan said. I know what to do. Thank you for the reminder."
Du An smiled: "That's good. The aristocratic families in the royal capital have very close contacts. It's not just you who wants to take a stand. Your friends and family branches had better give their full support, otherwise it will be impossible if you are the only one who supports it." If others do not take a stand, the king will misunderstand the meaning of the nobles and think that you are still unwilling to agree with him. The king no longer trusts the powerful people, and it is your interests that are harmed." He placed the wine glass on the passing waiter's plate, glanced at the ambassador of the Gripen Empire from a distance, and said to Bison: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Go to the bathroom. "
After Duan left, the ambassador of the Holy Gripen Kingdom also left the reception.
The bathroom is a place where private conversations are often held, but it is not a reliable place to talk about secret things. Duan checked into the hotel room and had already informed the ambassador of the Gripen Empire. Not long after he checked into the room, there was a knock on the door.
Looking outside the door, no one was following. Duan closed the door and said: "I have tried my best to let Radat make the decision to use the 'Doomsday Judgment'. Now Wang The officials and nobles in the capital are all in danger and eager to gain the king's trust. There is no obstacle in winning over them. I will propose to the king again in a few days. If we discuss this matter, most of them will agree, and there will be no problem."
The ambassador said: "That's good. It will be dangerous for you to stay in the king after the chief general said this, and I have started to help. You arrange an escape route to leave, and you can leave only after the 'Doomsday Judgment' is used on the Demon Moon Army."
"Yes. Once the taboo magic of 'Doomsday Judgment' is used, it will be almost impossible for the Holy and Demonic countries to easily stop their war. By then, they will fight to the point of darkness, and the world will surely be in turmoil. After the entire world is greatly weakened, Our goal has been achieved."
The ambassador said: "You must be careful during this period. Although you and the general are directly communicating with us in the language of the Imperial Realm, you must use the Tongyi Stone. use This kind of secret language is used to communicate with people. Once Radat knows it, he will be somewhat suspicious of you." Du An nodded: "Don't worry, unless it is very important, I will try to have as little contact with the general as possible. I will send someone to inform you.”
“You can’t leave the reception for too long. I will leave by myself later.”
“Well, then I will go back to the reception.”
...
The bustling city, the noisy streets, and the lights in the royal capital are still so bright at night. Walking in a city that countless people yearn for, the steps under Linda's feet seemed a little cold. After Bing Zhixie left, she was bored all day long, doing nothing. The heart without anyone to accompany her was the loneliest heart.
The heart is not completely lonely, there is a trace of fetters caring about the person on the other side. Thousands of miles apart, but with the slightest connection, I wonder if the person who is being missed in the distance is still missing me.
"Hey~!" He sighed softly, and this sigh contained countless helplessness. What I sigh is that my heart is like a leaf of duckweed. After many years, I finally found a place I can rely on. What's helpless is that Duckweed's trace of concern doesn't know how long he can hold the other side.
Some people always know how to cherish happiness. When they know that happiness will soon pass away, the sadness in their hearts becomes even more helpless.
The footsteps are wandering and aimless. In this big city, home is where he is. Without him, there is no place where you can feel at ease.
The bar, just ahead. Many people don't really like drinking, but the taste of wine can temporarily numb the empty heart.
“Is she the same kind of person?”
The figures crossed each other and passed each other. When Linda entered the bar, Maxin was leaving her. A person drinking alone in a bar will always attract the attention of those who share the same problem. Linda didn't stop or look at her, she just asked herself boredly in her heart.
