Chapter 6 Harold, the new Chancellor of the Exchequer
When Frey woke up again, he found that he was back on the strange but familiar bed. The difference from before was that one of the slender and beautiful hands that made him admire so much was now covered in white. The linen is wrapped in balls, wrapped like a Sanquan rice dumpling.
Frey felt his mouth was a little dry, so he shouted toward the door: "Guards, guards."
Hearing Frey's call, the guard standing guard at the door quickly opened the door and walked in. He came to Frey's bed and saluted and asked: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
Frey smiled and said: "I'm a little thirsty. Please ask someone to bring me a glass of warm water, and also send someone to notify General Tris and Sheriff Harold to come to see me in the palace meeting hall."
"As you command, Your Majesty."
After the guard took the order and went out, a maid opened the door and walked in after a while. She held a square mahogany plate in her hand, with a silver water glass inlaid with red stones placed on it.
Frey took the warm water from the maid's hand and thanked him, drank the glass of warm water in one breath, and then came to the meeting hall again under the protection of the guards.
As soon as he stepped into the meeting hall, Frey saw a fat man in luxurious clothes and a mountain of flesh rushing towards him with snot and tears, howling like a ghost, and kept crying: "Your Majesty, Frey Your Majesty, who is this damn guy who injured your left hand? Your Majesty, tell me, I, Harold, will be the first to let him go."
Frey subconsciously kicked him away. After a while, he realized that the fat man was Harold. He smiled awkwardly and then ordered the guards to help him from the ground to sit on the discussion table. After coming down, he came to the main seat of the discussion table and sat down.
Frey smiled and said to Harold: "Okay Harold, don't shed tears and wipe your nose there. It's disgusting. I did the injury on my left hand myself. As for how I got it, don't ask any more questions." ”.
After hearing what Frey said, Harold quickly took out the embroidered silk scarf in his arms and wiped away the tears and snot on his face. Did you have any orders for Rhodes when he came here? If there is anything you need me for, please feel free to give me your orders. I will serve His Majesty with all my heart, even to the death, with all my heart, and in front of others."
Frey waved his hand to stop Harold's bragging, and when he was about to say something, the guard at the door came in and saluted and reported: "Your Majesty the King, General Tris has arrived."
Frey smiled and said: "Go and invite General Tris in."
Tris, who was led by the guards to the meeting hall, first saluted Frey, and then found a seat to sit down at Frey's signal.
Frey looked at Harold and Tris below, and deliberately lowered his voice and said to Harold in a heavy tone: "Harold, I have an important task that I want to entrust to you. I don't know if you have the confidence to complete it." ".
Harold was shocked when he heard Frey's name being called. Hearing Frey's heavy tone and subsequent words, he immediately stood up and used his thick, black-haired arms to pat his chest vigorously and said righteously: " Your Majesty, despite your orders, Harold will do his best to complete the tasks assigned by Your Majesty, and there will never be any ambiguity."
Frey was so amused by Harold's righteous and solemn look that he almost shed tears, which made Harold extremely nervous down there. He couldn't stand or sit down, and was very embarrassed.
After Frey had laughed enough, he waved his hand for him to sit down. He smiled and teased: "Harold, don't be so nervous. The important task I want to give you is, are you interested in giving up your well-oiled Sheriff of the Royal Capital?" , come to be my finance minister and my right-hand man.”
Harold did not expect that Frey would say such words, and he was speechless with excitement. He stammered and said at a loss: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what am I, Harold, capable of? Can I serve as your finance minister, and isn’t the finance minister held by Lord Brut?”
When Frey heard Brut's name, his slightly better mood suddenly turned a little bad. He said angrily: "Don't mention this bug's name. From today on, he is no longer the minister of finance, and he will never be the finance minister again." The Earl of the Kingdom of Ferelden is now a prisoner, a prisoner who dared to embezzle military expenditures of more than one billion beli issued by the kingdom for three or four years."
"I have had him arrested and imprisoned in the prison of the Royal Capital Tribunal, and ordered the warden Azik to interrogate him for me."
"I believe that if Warden Azik's methods are clever, he should have interrogated me by now to find out some details and the ins and outs of his embezzlement of military funds."
Harold was stunned by the sudden news: "Lord Brut actually dared to embezzle military funds and also embezzled billions of beli. My dear, I have served as the peace officer of the royal capital for so many years. The money that others paid to me was not enough for him to embezzle even a fraction of the military expenses."
Frey pretended to frown and asked, "Why, you don't want to?"
After hearing these words, Harold's speech suddenly became sharper, and he changed his speech problem and said: "How is it possible? Your Majesty Frey, you asked me to be your finance minister because you think highly of me, Harold. I will definitely I will do my best to relieve your Majesty's worries and contribute to the prosperity of the Kingdom of Ferelden."
Frey was very satisfied after hearing Harold's promise. He turned to look at Tris, smiled and asked: "Uncle Tris, do you have any objections to me, Harold, being my chancellor?"
If the original Frey had made such a ridiculous decision and made Harold, a notoriously greedy and lustful guy, the finance minister of the kingdom, Tris would definitely try his best to stop Frey, but through these two days What Frey did made Tris feel that Frey had grown up and began to gradually become like the old king, a good king who was responsible, courageous, and caring for the people.
Thinking of this, Tris immediately stood up, clasped his fists and said to Frey: "Your Majesty, Tris has no objections, everything will comply with your will."
When Tris said he had no objections, Frey breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his tense heart. He thought that if Tris insisted on not agreeing to Harold becoming the Chancellor of the Finance, he would have to think about it. Tris' will.
As for why Harold should be appointed as the finance minister of the kingdom, the reason is very simple. Although Harold is greedy for money and lust, he is very loyal and loyal to him. Moreover, this guy is particularly sensitive to money and has a good mind. Very useful.
The most important thing is that when they were young, they were fooling around in the palace. While playing hide-and-seek, Frey accidentally broke one of the old king's favorite glass products. The little Frey who got into trouble was so frightened that he could not speak. Come, in the end, Harold, who was loyal, took on the matter. The result was that the old king did not blame Harold for anything, but Harold's father, Earl Rossiter, beat him half to death. From now on, the little king Frey recognized him as his brother, and the two grew up playing together until Frey became king. Their relationship became slightly estranged. However, after these two days of training, he became Frey's loyal follower. .
Frey smiled and said to Harold: "At present, it is just my verbal appointment. Your specific appointment will not be effective until tomorrow's palace meeting. I will announce it in front of all the nobles. I hope you will not let me down." .
Harold stood up again. He looked at Frey and said seriously every word: "Your Majesty, I, Harold, will do my best and will never let you down."
