October 161, Calradia.

The new capital of the Salander Sultanate, Dukuba.

Due to the invasion of Swadia, the original capital Shariz was captured. The homeless Sultan Hamki led the remaining troops to Dukuba.

The original lord of Dukuba, Chief Ukes, returned his territory to Hamki without saying a word. After a while of slight refusal, Hamki accepted the territory and declared Dukuba as the new capital.

In the home of Cecilia and Li Wu in Dukubari, Xie Feng was bored and holding a can full of soup to feed the bees left behind by Cecilia.

Li Wu was sitting nearby, drinking wine from the wine jar, and asked: "Logically speaking, you should be very busy. Why do you have so much time to feed the bees here?"

Xie Feng rolled his eyes at Li Wu and said, "Are you qualified to criticize me? There are all these cheating guys around me."

Li Wu smiled and said, "Did everyone around you offend you?"

Xie Feng said: "Let me tell you, you were the one who was most eager to defeat Charlotte, right? Why was it that I was the one who was busy in the end, while you stayed here and played so leisurely?"

Li Wu said: "What were you doing while I was busy?"

Xie Feng said: "I don't think this explains why you are so idle."

Li Wu smiled and said: "I also want to be busy, but I can't be busy now - after all, you have been doing the things I want to do, right?"

Xie Feng sighed and said, "Are you planning to just sit back and enjoy your gains? Stinky old man."

Li Wu said: "But I can't do anything. The best way now is to gather an army to kill Swadia, and then we can easily kill Charlotte. As for the matter of gathering an army, it is obviously best for you to do it."

It's suitable, and you're doing it too - by the way, shouldn't you go to Hamki to discuss the latest alliance? Has the matter been settled?"

Xie Feng sighed: "It's settled... But Hamki insists on leading Salander's soldiers by himself. In other words, although Hamki participated in the alliance, he did not obey the unified command and deployment."

Li Wu said: "Is there any problem?"

"Very good!" Xie Feng said: "Think about it, if Salander's troops are in charge of Hamki, if I need to send a large army to charge the border, do you think Hamki will let Salander's soldiers go to the front?

Or run at the back? This is not important. What is important is that when other countries find out that Salander's soldiers can be lazy and influence the whole body, their king will definitely come to me and say: 'Oh, Xie Feng

You see, that boy Hamki can lead his own army, how about we do the same?' In this case, is this still called an alliance? I am trying hard to concentrate the military power on myself, but it is not against me

Love of power, but to avoid all kinds of unnecessary conflicts and troubles - by the way, will your second authority allow Hamki to listen to me?"

Li Wu smiled and said: "The second authority can't do anything except get more information - of course, the first authority is still possible, but I have to kill Charlotte to get it -

By then you won’t need Hamji to listen to you, right?”

Xie Feng had no choice but to sigh and continue feeding the bees.

Li Wu took a few more sips of wine, and then asked: "Aren't you familiar with Hamji's daughter? Hamji also loves her very much, so it shouldn't be a big problem for her to convince his father.

The reason why Hamki insists on personally taking charge of the military is simply because of his pride. Others give the military power to you, but he is an exception. This makes him appear to be more arrogant than other kings."

Xie Feng asked depressedly: "Are you familiar with Hamji? How do you know he thinks so?"

Li Wu laughed and said: "I also had a hand in setting up Hamki's character. Of course I know what mode he will use to think about problems."

Xie Feng twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "So, now that Hamji is so difficult to deal with, I can rely on you?"

Li Wu said: "Then other kings agree to form an alliance so easily, and your little lover King Wilson loves you so much, why don't you thank me in person?"

When Sera was mentioned, Xie Feng felt a pang in his heart at first, and then changed the subject and said: "Actually, I also went to see Fatima, but Fatima didn't seem to be willing to help me."

Li Wu said: "Of course, she has only met you a few times, and she and her father have lived together for more than ten years. Although she may also vaguely feel that it is better to hand over the military power to you for unified management and distribution.

It's appropriate, but after all, he wants to take the military power away from his father, and I won't easily help you convince my own father to hand over the military power to you."

Xie Feng said: "But she is not as brainless as her father. She said she could help me convince her father, but there is one condition."

Li Wu asked curiously: "Let you marry her?"

Xie Feng sneered at Li Wu and said, "You are old and disrespectful!"

Li Wu laughed and said: "Although I look like an old man in this world, in reality I am not old at all. You know - what are the requirements?"

Xie Feng said: "She said that she has been in Salander, a dry desert country, all her life. She has read many books, and the books record that there are many places in the country other than Salander and Virginia.

A sea of ​​flowers. Fatima herself is also a flower lover, but due to the climate in Saland, there are not many flowers, and most of them are not very beautiful. Therefore, she said that if I can let her see the finished film

In the sea of ​​flowers, if her long-cherished wish is fulfilled, she is willing to help me convince her father."

Xie Feng also felt a little distressed about the condition put forward by Fatima. As for beautiful flowers, he had a pack of exotic flower seeds in his inventory that came from the lucky treasure box in Jiantian Valley. But even now

Even if the seeds are sown, they won't bloom until next year, so obviously they can't wait.

Li Wu said: "Isn't this very simple? Just take him to Rodok or Kujit on horseback."

Xie Feng said depressedly: "I originally thought so, but she also said that she had to meet her locally in Salander."

Li Wu said: "What about digging up a large piece of flowers from other places?"

Xie Feng sighed and said: "I have thought about it too, but now it is more than half of autumn. There are not many flowers, and even if there are, they are almost withered. Even if you are lucky enough to find some, they will be brought to this place in Salander, not because of the air.

If it dries out and dies on the spot, it will also wither immediately due to changes in ambient temperature.”

Li Wu said: "What does this have to do with you feeding bees here now?"

Xie Feng said helplessly: "Isn't it just because I can't think of a solution at all that I find something else to do in order to get a flash of inspiration?"

Li Wu smiled and said, "I think you are just wasting your time here!"

Xie Feng said: "Otherwise, what else can I do? Now the alliance has been completely finalized, and all countries are making military arrangements. It will be about ten days before the swearing-in ceremony. During this period, what will I do?

You don’t have to do anything, just wait.”

Li Wudao: "So, why don't you just try to figure out how to solve Fatima's request during this period?"

Xie Feng said: "Yes, I originally wanted to ask you if you had any ideas...it seems like I don't need to ask you now. You definitely don't have any good ideas."

After Li Wu thought for a while, he said: "Maybe there really is."

Xie Feng said indifferently: "Come on, just you?"

Li Wu frowned and said, "You don't believe me?"

Xie Feng looked at Li Wu's serious look. He was stunned for a moment, and then asked carefully: "Do you really have a way?"

Li Wu smiled and said: "It can't be regarded as a method, it can only be regarded as an idea. I don't know whether it will work or not."

Xie Feng said: "Tell me about it?"

Li Wu expressed his thoughts.

After hearing this, Xie Feng was stunned for a moment, and then thought deeply: "This may not be possible...it depends on whether Fatima admits it or not."

Li Wu smiled and said: "You have no other way anyway, why don't you try to win by surprise? Maybe it will satisfy your appetite? At least I think my idea is pretty good."

Xie Feng said: "It's good, it's good...but it takes time..."

Li Wu said: "Don't you have a lot of time?"

After thinking for a while, Xie Feng said: "Okay! Let's give it a try!"

…

November 1, 161 AD, Calradia.

In Halma, which was newly included in the territory of Svadia, an irritable cry kept ringing in the castle: "Water! Water! Where is the water! Where is it!"

The owner of the voice is the current female king of Swadia, Her Majesty Charlotte.

The rumored Charlotte is a very calm, cruel, and wise person. The equally famous "Knight Against Heaven" Xie Feng once suffered a lot of losses at his hands. Although Charlotte is a daughter, she

His abilities are unmatched by any man on the mainland.

He is such a person who is close to the legend, but he is walking around restlessly in Halma's castle, his eyes constantly exploring every corner, shouting: "Water! Come out! If you have the ability, give it to me."

Come out!" He shouted as he walked, the sword in his hand still on guard, keeping an eye on the surroundings.

How can he have the temperament of a king? He is just like a crazy shrew.

Is she thirsty? Why does she keep calling for water?

If you think so, you are wrong.

When Charlotte started shouting like this a few days ago, several maids or soldiers who did not know the inside story and did not know life or death diligently brought Charlotte a glass or a basin of water, but they were slapped on the spot by the furious Charlotte.

They were struck to death with swords. They didn't know what they had done wrong until they died.

Today, Charlotte is still shouting everywhere in the castle: "Water! Where is the water!"

But no one dared to pay attention to her, or even make eye contact with her.

Water? What kind of water is she talking about?

Charlotte's hair was messy and she was patrolling the castle with a sword in hand. She patrolled very carefully and wanted to dig out every wall to see if there was any mystery inside.

"Guards! Guards!" Charlotte suddenly shouted.

After a while, a guard appeared in front of Charlotte and said nervously: "Here!"

Charlotte stared at the guard kneeling in front of her and asked, "Have you found it?"

The guard swallowed a mouthful of saliva and replied: "Your Majesty... no... no!"

When Charlotte heard this, she immediately shouted angrily: "What's the use of keeping you!" As she said that, she put her hand on the hilt of the sword.
