Chapter 267 The Lord Is Sick

After the simple and grand event, Xu Tian went back to correct the documents. After several days of overuse, even drinking saliva hurts like being cut by a knife. Whether the food brought by Melaire needs to be chewed or As long as the simple swallowing was rejected, the lord who had temporarily overdrawn himself forced himself to scrub and fell on the bed with a pale complexion. When the housekeeper came to wake the master to solve his physiological needs at night, Xu Tian was already flushed. developed a high fever.

sick again.

Every winter, the housekeeper takes care of the lord with fear and care, but the disease still cannot be avoided. This time, the illness was earlier than in previous years. It is estimated that the body has been exhausted recently and the body resistance has dropped. Lyle skillfully boiled bowls of antipyretic decoction that didn't taste good at all, and used a straw made of reed to force it down a little bit. Xu Tianxia, ​​who had lost his senses, frowned consciously, but the housekeeper did not soften his heart at all.

The lord woke up on the third day after coma. At that time, Melelle was helping Xu Tian feel his pulse.

"When is it?"

The strong bitterness of the medicinal herbs reverberated in his mouth for a long time, Xu Tian's voice was so soft and slow that the housekeeper thought it was his own illusion. He carefully put the master's wrist on the bed and looked back at a pair of black eyes before realizing that it was his own. Really, the lord has really woken up.

"Three days."

Of course Meler knew what the master meant, but he didn't agree.

"Walk."

Xu Tian wanted to get up after calculating the next day, but his eyes went dark because of his excessive movements, and he almost passed out again.

"Lord..."

The housekeeper really didn't want the master to drag the body with him to deliver those civilians. The shell that got better after sleeping for so long couldn't stand repeated tossing.

"Walk."

His brows were already furrowed. Of course Xu Tian knew that he should take good care of his body, but if he didn't show up on such an important occasion, there would be more troubles in the future. People in high positions have more rights than others and have to bear more burdens. No matter how he looks now, as long as he is still awake, he must do these things.

"Yes."

Melelle didn't continue to persuade him. After all, he was just a housekeeper. If he could open his mouth about small things, he would be overstepping his authority if he interfered too much. No matter how good Xu Tian looked, he was only doing it in life, and he was doing big things. It doesn't sound ambiguous at all.

It's just winter and the weather isn't too cold yet, but Xu Tian was covered by several layers of clothes before going out. Fortunately, he is tall and tall, so he doesn't look bloated, and his footsteps look light. People can't help but worry that the person in front of them will accidentally fall, and the body barely falls down by relying on the cane in the right hand.

"It's still too much."

Knowing his situation, Xu Tian just sighed secretly in his heart, gritted his teeth and continued to move forward with a blank expression. The butler followed him and was ready to catch the master at any time, but he didn't take the initiative to ask for the lord princess to be hugged or carried on his back. .

Most of the time, Xu Tian felt that he was a fool. He could get satisfactory results as long as he obeyed softly and made concessions to show weakness, but he still held his breath. On their own.

Obviously, it would be nice to just step back a little bit.

Obviously, all you have to do is reach out and ask for help.

Obviously as long as...

Every time the lord gritted his teeth and issued an order, he would regret why he was so fussy, but the next time Xu Tian encountered this situation, he would still make the same decision, even if it was not understood, unknown or even rewarded. It's all the same, you may hesitate a little but you will never change your decision.

It's just an erotic place, and it won't do anything if it's open.

It's just a man beating a woman, no matter what.

Civilians are just struggling in the water, and nothing will happen if they don't get up.

It's just that the soldiers can't get their hands on the prey, and it's not going to happen anyway.

Did the soldiers die for the territory? It wouldn't matter if there were no commemorative activities and no compensation.

……

Xu Tian always had a voice in his heart telling him this, but he never acted according to this voice. Even if the consequences were men's indignation, ordinary people's stealing, raping, playing tricks, and soldiers' family quarreling, he knew that he After making this decision, you will definitely regret it or never turn back.

After all, some roads can only be walked by one person, and some hardships can only be eaten by one person.

There is always someone to be a pioneer.

Lords cannot get used to relying on others, because no one can be by your side from beginning to end.

Holding on to his somewhat uncontrollable body, he came to the gate of the castle, just in time to see off those who were going to work in the mine and road construction. Xu Tian's pale face attracted a lot of whispers, but more The people still showed a sigh of relief. After all, the lord would come over every time a large army set off.

"There are still people who want to join the army, I hope you remember..."

Of course, Xu Tian's stubbornness to come here this time is not just to send everyone off, but what he said now is the key point. As a qualified housekeeper, Melelle brought all the things the master might use, including a few humanoid loudspeakers. , now what the lord said is first repeated by the steward who is closest to hear clearly, and then let the loudspeakers spread it. Now there are many people in the large army here who ask for leave to see them off, so they will add what they didn't finish last time. It is most appropriate for this occasion.

"Since you are a soldier, you must be prepared to kill..."

This illness may have really hurt his vitality. The lord felt a little out of breath after saying the last two sentences, but these words would not be of much use if he said them after this occasion. It's not that you just show your face and do nothing, and the small place of Febrina can't afford to eat rice.

"You are soldiers, you must be worthy of this uniform..."

The army has now unified their uniforms. In order to save costs, although they are still white linen clothes, the style is completely different from everyone's daily wear. Xu Tian also specially changed their cloth rings into red five-pointed stars sewn on the shoulders of the clothes. A poor lord and creator of salted fish, he knows that the clothes are suspected of plagiarism, but he has really tried his best.

After all, after coming here, he no longer has the mind of playing piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and hops. Just pulling a territory's daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea is enough to drive Xu Tian crazy.

"You are soldiers when you live, and you are heroes when you die..."

"Don't worry about your family, the higher your position, the more you will be compensated..."

"Have a nice trip."

The lord who was supposed to be resting in bed is now blowing cold wind outside. Xu Tian felt that there might be no nobleman who was more miserable than him. In their hearts, most people were moved and at the same time really listened to what the lord said.

What is a soldier?

Why are there soldiers?

What does it take to be a qualified soldier?

What, why, and how? After the three questions were answered, many people had a better understanding of the military uniform with the bright red five-pointed star. Some silently gave up the idea of ​​preparing to join the army, while others were more determined. What Xu Tian wanted was As a result of this screening, Febrina is poor but never stingy on military expenditures. The lord knows the consequences of not having force but he is not willing to let some people treat the army as a gilded place, eat what he drinks and receive his wages. Get the hell out of anyone who runs away right away!

What I want are real soldiers!Qualified fighter!Qualified soldiers!

Speaking of which, Xu Tian didn't know what he was muttering about. The face of the nearest butler was gradually becoming blurred. The lord who was familiar with his body knew that the next link in this process was coma, so he decisively relied on his will He braked hard and dropped his blessings, then struggled to turn around and disappeared from everyone's sight as steadily as possible.

The footsteps are light but cannot lose balance, the cane can squeeze the body's center of gravity tightly but cannot shift, it is foggy everywhere, Xu Tian rarely opened the system map again to check how far away he is from the room, but fell straight down the next moment , the body lost control and the consciousness was completely flying, and it was not disfigured to be caught by the quick-sighted and quick-handed Melelle.

The lord's weight was a little lighter than last time. The butler estimated the distance from here to the master's room and calculated the probability of encountering someone. Regrettably, he gave up the princess hug and put Xu Tian's hands on his shoulders for the whole time. Putting the person on his back, he carried it back like this. The relatively energy-saving method allowed Melaire to support it for a longer time, and he successfully avoided people by walking in a relatively remote place.

It's okay to be sick, but if someone hears the news that the lord is in a coma, it will probably stir up trouble again. The housekeeper still remembers how many people rebelled when the news was accidentally leaked last time, and how much material Xu Tian's winter blood color added.

A lot of hard-earned labor forces have just disappeared.

Xu Tian slept like this for several days, and the housekeeper took care of him in his clothes, and he lost a lot of weight, but his blond hair became more dazzling, and his blue eyes became brighter. They were all warm tones, but his temperament became more and more terrifying, which made everyone It's a little hard to understand how Merrell became like this. The old fox, who is the father, also came over and asked a few times, making sure that his cub was fine and walked away.

The large army of road repairers went together with the miners. What Xu Tian had repeatedly emphasized before was that the road from Febrina to Phil City must be built as a priority. It is very beneficial, and the plan was adopted very smoothly under the condition that the lord insisted on data support.

These people are not only responsible for road construction, but also the main force of cement transportation. The time is tight and the task is heavy, but the two rewards make everyone shut up. After all, although the population of Febrina is showing explosive growth, there is still a shortage of labor, and women are animals. Working is a common thing and everyone is used to being tired. As long as the food is in place and the salary is straightforward, everything is easy to talk about.

After all, many people not only put up their previous savings but also owed debts for a house, pointing to doing more work in the relatively leisurely winter to make money. After all, a few taels of silver can solve all kinds of panic in the world.
