Proof of the Sun King

Meeting with the Emperor made Suria physically and mentally exhausted. After lunch, the Queen immediately arranged for someone to take a bath, and only regained her energy after a short nap in the afternoon.

The bear child Devonhill was taken to the equestrian class. After Suria got up, she asked the head maid Sylvia and Orika to arrange afternoon tea.

Afternoon tea was passed down from the high elves. At the earliest, when the high elves were still colonizing the old world, afternoon tea began to appear among the noble ladies of the elves. The old world was not as warm in winter and cool in summer as Osuan. There will be changes in the climate, and the elf nobles like to drink tea and have some snacks and drinks in the warm sunshine in the afternoon.

This habit had been lost in successive wars, but after the High Elves made peace after the Butcher-King Tesiris had driven the Dark Elves out of Ulthuan and defeated the main Malekith force, afternoon tea was revived again, and after the poet The period of Wang Isis reached its peak, and the whole people had an unbeatable afternoon tea time.

After Finnuba opened the trade route, the atmosphere of natural afternoon tea was gradually introduced to the human world.

Surya is a loyal lover of afternoon tea. Female knights must enjoy afternoon tea whenever they have the chance. As Surya's fame and influence in the knight kingdom and the old world continue to break new heights, nobles The habit of ladies to hold afternoon tea has become a new fashion in the whole old world. From Kislev in the north to Araby in the south, the noble ladies would sit together to drink tea and chat and enjoy life at around three in the afternoon.

Along the corridor of the palace, Suria walked in the front, Orika followed, the winter sunlight reflected on the queen and the dark elf maid from the floor-to-ceiling windows in the corridor, the dark elf's voice was full of jealousy: "Father Your lord really likes you, and you're lucky, ma'am, that you have little Devonhill, he's so lovely."

"Your expression is so rare, Olika." Suria said firmly without turning her head, the queen's voice was filled with a hint of joy: "If you want to have a child for Ryan, I have no objection either. ."

"Heh." Olika sneered, and the dark elf's tone was contemptuous: "Madam, if I can have children with my master so easily, do you believe that I have given birth to an entire polo team with my master?"

The expression on Suria's face changed slightly, and the queen stopped. So far, this is the only seedling with Ryan, so Suria has been brooding in her heart: "Really? Orika, do you have any secret recipe? ? So sure?"

"Ma'am, do you know Malus-Blackblade? Champion of the Witch King?" Olika stopped at the same time, she said casually, she couldn't help but be proud: "Malus-Blackblade has three brothers, four One elder sister, two younger brothers and three younger sisters, eight of whom lived to adulthood, don't question Duruche's fertility, in Nagaros, which family does not have more than seven or eight children? A dozen or so are not uncommon, really Think we're like our weak cousins? Fela is unbearable!"

Dark elves really can live! Surya felt a little uncomfortable when she heard it, but the queen immediately found the point of counterattack: "It seems, dear Olika, the medicine of elves does not work on humans."

"Oh? Is that so?" Olika chuckled and shook her head, her long black hair tossed behind her, and she glanced at Suria unconvinced: "Madam, do you think if I were a human, you would still Any chance of giving birth to Devon Hill?"

"What do you mean?" Suria's expression changed.

Olika took out a small bottle in her hand, with pink mist-like gas and liquid swirling in it, and the dark elf smiled sweetly: "The venom of Hydra Hydra, just a little bit, pour it in from below, It can make people never become a mother, madam, do you want to try it? It hurts a bit!"

"You..." Surya's face suddenly became ugly, and the queen took a step back in fear, as if Orika was holding something very terrifying.

"Don't worry." Olika smiled even sweeter, and the dark elf put away the small bottle: "The old man has already admitted that you are his daughter-in-law, so of course I will not do anything, he knows everything, I finally left him A good impression, I won't do such a stupid thing, I love my master, and I won't make him sad and sad."

"Old man?" Suria couldn't help laughing: "Why call him an old man?"

"He's not young enough?" Olika asked back, "Madam, do you think about what that red-haired one-eyed Oglin said?"

"Long live, long live, fifty thousand years old? Is he fifty thousand years old?"

"But to Asuryan, he is just a child. Maybe this child is already better than him, but his arrogance will not change."

After speaking, the two women looked at each other and smiled, and finally, the atmosphere became relaxed.

"Does Nagaros also have afternoon tea?" Surya asked with interest.

"Why does Madam like afternoon tea?" Olika responded to the guest.

"Black tea will warm you when it's cold, it'll cool you when it's hot, it'll cheer you up when you're down, and it'll calm you down when you're excited." Suria gave her answer.

"Forget it, let me tell Madam why the high elves have afternoon tea time." Olika finally spoke.

The dark elves told the knight queen why their ferrari cousins ​​liked afternoon tea so much.

The reason is very simple, because the afternoon tea time is included in the working hours of the high elves.

As mentioned earlier, when the poet Wang Isis was in power, the social vitality declined, the upper-class aristocracy indulged in pleasure, the society was severely involuted, and structural unemployment led to an economic crisis.

How did Isis respond? At the suggestion of the Prime Minister of the Phoenix King (actually an undercover ace undercover), Isis officially announced the six-hour working system, with a working limit of 35 hours per week. The Phoenix King felt that he could add more jobs in this way, you see , the working hours are reduced, the number of employees is forced to increase, and more jobs can be created.

At the same time, Isis also announced that "tea time is sacred and inviolable". Since then, the afternoon tea time at 3 o'clock in the afternoon is also included in the working hours, usually from 2:30 to 3:30, and the legal working hours of the day continue. Compressed to five hours.

If there is a chance to be lazy, the whole nation will naturally have afternoon tea. This unfortunate wind has been blowing for a long time. It was not until the boss of the reckless king Moville announced that the afternoon tea time could not be counted in the working hours, and the golden age of afternoon tea came to an end.

"This plan of the Witch King is really black enough." Suria sighed, Olika smiled without saying a word, the high-level has developed the habit of afternoon tea, and the cousins ​​are continuing to degenerate.

However, Sulia is not the kind of woman who is addicted to enjoyment. The queen of knights likes afternoon tea is just a means. She really realizes her strategy of "afternoon tea ruling" through afternoon tea. The nobles and court ministers are often summoned at afternoon tea gatherings to discuss national policy and administrative matters with the knight queen. Surya and his husband Ryan have always liked to listen to the opinions of all classes. Even the humblest serfs and businessmen were given the opportunity to participate and speak.

Now, under the warm sun in winter, three-tier shelves have been placed on the table in the afternoon tea banquet hall.

The bottom shelf is filled with a variety of delicious sandwiches, filled with cucumbers, grilled salmon, cream cheese, and fried eggs.

The second shelf is scones. This Breton speciality is spread with cream and strawberry jam. It is a little sweet and needs to be served with tea.

On the top shelf are three desserts of the highest order, High Elf Mousse, Cherry Fruit Tarts and Macarons.

Orika served the famous Darjeeling black tea.

This black tea is harvested from the Far East Indy and has the best quality. It is known as the "champagne of black tea". The color of the tea soup is orange, yellow and red, and the smell is fragrant and elegant. Favorite black tea.

After everything was seated, Surya signaled that it was okay, and the court servants outside opened the door.

Beria, the chief political commissar of the Northern Front Army Corps, strode in from the outside wearing a brand-new military uniform and freshly oiled military boots: "Meet Your Majesty the Queen."

"No gift, get up." Suria is meeting with Beria, who rushed back in a hurry for afternoon tea today. This guy specially changed a fast boat and rushed back to Curona in order to report the situation in detail and provide Opinion.

"Come all the way, it's hard work." Suria motioned to the maids to serve an identical afternoon tea: "Are you hungry?"

Beria looked at Queen Surya, who was sitting about five meters away, enjoying afternoon tea under the sun and the maid, and couldn't help but feel excited. Isn't this what he wanted? To get ahead and enter the power center of the kingdom?

The Ugol people have always been gloomy and unsmiling, but Beria was ecstatic to receive a meeting of this level.

What does this mean? This shows that he has begun to truly be recognized and entered the circle of the knight king's court!

It is inevitable to make mistakes when you are emotionally excited. In addition, the Wuguer people are not very proficient in the etiquette of afternoon tea at the court. The order was wrong, and the maids and attendants next to them couldn't stop laughing at this scene, while Belial's face was flushed, and the Ugor people were ruthless. When the matter was settled, he must specially invite an etiquette teacher to teach How to drink afternoon tea by yourself!

Fortunately, Suria didn't care about this. The knight queen began to ask about the defense of Erlengrad one by one. Of course, Belial knew everything and said everything.

I learned from Beria that the remnants of Erlengrad's army of about 10,000 regular troops and about 20,000 conscripts plus more than 30,000 Mrs. Keisler (basically women) are willing to come to Brittany to seek life. That is about 70,000 people, and most of the remaining 100,000 people still want to live in the empire. Beria did not force it, because the elites have been selected, and the rest are mostly old, weak, sick and disabled.

"How is Callard's situation now?" This was estimated before, Sulia didn't say much, he was concerned about Callard's situation.

"Your Excellency Callard is seriously injured, but there is no serious problem. It will take about four months to half a year to fully recover." Beria said seriously: "The epic victory of Erlengrad and the killing of North The deeds of the High King of Cards will be immortalized in a magnificent epic of which Lord Callard is the composer and I am only one note."

"No, Marshal Rokossovsky is the composer, and Callard is the performer." Suria corrected Beria's mistake with a smile, and the knight queen gently picked up the black tea and asked gracefully: " But I heard that when Luo Shuai made this thrilling symphony, Beria, you firmly opposed it?"

The Wuguer suddenly broke out in cold sweat, and he hurriedly left his seat and knelt down regardless of his image: "Everything is my responsibility, I'm stupid, I don't understand the military, if it wasn't for the insistence of His Excellency Callard, we almost missed a major military plane, please Your Majesty Punishment!"

"If I want to punish you, I have already punished you." Suria shook her head and motioned for Beria to get up: "Actually, your thoughts at the time were not without reason, this military plan was too risky, and there was no room for any A mistake, the requirements for the soldiers are also very strict. I remember that at least 30% of the soldiers who participated in the Bagration operation suffered from frostbite to varying degrees, right? Karad was injured like this... The difficulty of this championship match can be imagined, We in Brittany almost lost the Holy Grail Knight."

"Thank you Your Majesty for your understanding!" Beria first breathed a sigh of relief, he thought about it carefully, and then tentatively said: "Operation Bagration ended successfully, and after the withdrawal of Erlengrad, more than 80% of the soldiers stood there. I couldn't stand up anymore, most of the knights and soldiers were wrapped in blankets and roasted on the fire. They took a rest for two or three days to recover. I can hardly imagine what would happen if something went wrong, and the horses died in large numbers. It's cold, as expected of Her Majesty the Queen, the sun, moon, and stars are in your hands, Madam Sulia, and I can't hide anything from you."

Sure enough, even if it is a military bureaucracy, Beria is still a bureaucrat in essence, and Suria nodded lightly, she understood everything.

There is an essential difference between a military bureaucrat like Beria and a military exploit like Callard.

What is Callard's goal, to win the war, to make meritorious deeds, to gain honor and belief, to gain status and material rewards.

What about Bella? Of course, this guy is also eager to make merit and get rewards, but Beria's most important goal is to complete the tasks arranged by Ryan and Suria. What he hopes most is not victory, but "not making mistakes", he instinctively refuses This is where the adventure comes from, but when such a risky plan was proposed, Beria's instinct was to oppose it. The first reason was that he was unwilling to risk his political life, and the second reason was that he clearly expressed his opposition. After that, if there is a problem with the action, he is naturally not responsible.

Therefore, no matter whether he approves or not in his heart, he will clearly oppose Bagration's actions. Naturally, everyone will be happy if he wins, and he will not lose his credit, and he will not take the blame if he loses.

A cunning guy, as cunning as Talleyrand, Surya thought in her heart, very capable and very scheming, these two guys are not only excellent in their personal abilities, but also at the level of answering, flattering and trying to figure out what they want with the monarch. top.

Surya's silence made Beria a little uneasy~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The Ugoer returned to his place, only that the sandwich in his mouth was not fragrant, and the Darjeeling in the cup had no taste, Beibei Leah carefully recalled the reason why Surya rushed to bring her back, and then went through all the conversation just now in her mind, thinking for a long time without saying a word.

"Beria, I'm calling you back this time because I want you to make an idea." Seeing that Beria didn't speak, Suria knew that he was waiting for her to speak. The knight queen put down the teacup and said softly, in a soft tone. Unpredictable: "Guess what? What is it?"

"But... Her Majesty Katarin has come to ask for someone?" Bellia immediately realized that he had to show his importance, and he took the initiative to say: "Is your majesty feeling embarrassed?"

"Yeah, Ryan said in his letter that Katarin asked Rokossovsky's army to immediately go to the Imperial King of Diligence." Suria nodded slightly, she took out Ryan's letter, and the maid handed it over to Belial: " Look."

Beria didn't have any excuses this time, he immediately took the letter and after reading it twice, he immediately gave his opinion: "Your Majesty, I don't think that Constantine and Constantine should be allowed to His army goes to King Qin of the Empire, their ending will be very tragic, the execution order of Constantine has not been cancelled until now, which shows the attitude of His Majesty Catalin."

"I also know, but in any case, she sent the letter of credentials as a tsar." Suria nodded: "This matter is difficult to handle, and now the whole old world is fully resisting the Chaos frenzy, why should we stop it? Mrs Keesler going back to save their own country?"

"Your Majesty, why don't you leave this matter to me, I'll talk to His Majesty Katarin, how about it?" Bellia thought for a while, and planned to take the initiative to take over this matter.

"What are you going to talk about?"

"I'm planning to……"
