Episode 8: The New Emperor of Assisi Section 7: A Province That People Like 3
Corey's second brother was tied to a pillar in the center of the square. There are more than ten pillars here. They were originally decorations in the Corona City Square. Since Corey took charge of this place, some criminals have often been tied here.
, slowly the definition of these pillars is the punishment pillar.
For many nobles, being tied here was more terrifying than being flogged.
As the wine gradually got drunk, Corey's second brother realized that he was tied to the punishment pillar in the square. Seeing Su Di standing not far away, he opened his mouth but did not curse.
In his heart, his status is much lower than that of Su Di. Even in front of Corey, Corey will show his respect to Su Di. More importantly, if Corey comes back to do what he does, he must make himself look good.
, originally he thought that he was acting recklessly, and Wuwei wanted Corey to notice him, because he was only appointed as a small officer, so he was acting recklessly.
"Where's my eldest brother?" Thinking of this, he asked his follower softly.
The attendant hesitated for a few times, and finally said: "Second Young Master, the eldest young master is very angry. The young people just went to plead for mercy, but the eldest young master beat them out."
"Su Di, if I hit my head and die here, can you explain me?" Corey's second brother yelled at Su Di. Su Di gritted his teeth and turned his head. An officer came over and whispered: "
Master Su Di, this is not an option, if he really..."
"He doesn't dare, he doesn't have the guts." Su Di said word for word. Su Di has been a servant of the Kerui family since he was a child. He knows many things and understands the general personality of everyone in the Kerui family.
In the past, ordinary people who had nobles tied to the punishment pillar would definitely come to watch the fun, but this time it was very unexpected. The people stayed away from the square one after another, and even the shops stopped operating. There were only soldiers from the city guard in the square.
.
Corey's father and mother, as well as his stepmother and sisters all moved to the imperial capital, especially his stepmother and sisters, in order to find a suitable family in the imperial capital.
At this time, Corey was preparing for a big battle on the northern border with the pursuers of the Nora Kamu Empire.
"Brother Amu, why don't they come closer? They can't even walk for half a day when they camp so far away to attack." Corey stood on the high tower and looked at the enemy camp from a distance. The distance could only be seen.
There is a shadow of the camp, and even the flag cannot be seen clearly.
Ammu was also observing the enemy: "The opponent is just waiting for more reinforcements, or they are just planning to defend."
"Marshal, we have ten legions here, why don't we take the initiative to attack." Kamo was still very careful when speaking in front of Ammu.
Ammu shook his head: "Not to mention that we are not sure about victory or defeat, even if we win, it has no strategic significance. If we continue to order, the legions will be deployed in a dispersed manner. It seems that we are going to have a long-term confrontation with the enemy."
"Long term!" Corey exclaimed: "How long will it take? How many months."
"It's possible in one or two years." Ammu said softly.
Corey couldn't stand it now: "All legions stay here, I'm going back to the imperial capital."
Ammu smiled, with an indifferent expression. There was no difference to him between defending one country and defending two countries, not to mention that Corey had left him eight reorganized legions.
Just as Corey was on his way back to the imperial capital with his direct legion, several people on horseback were heading towards the northern border from the path. These people carried the secret message of the marshal of the kingdom. His destination was the six continental countries.
, they are the secret messengers of the Kingdom Marshal.
Seeing Kerui returning to the army, they hid quietly. After Kerui's army passed, they came out and continued on their way.
A few days later, Corey returned to the Royal Capital of Asia. Warner traveled thirty kilometers out of the city to personally greet Corey. Corey's victorious army received the most solemn welcome ceremony.
"There's a lot of spoils. The great reform of the kingdom has also started with the sufficient money this time. However, there is a small incident in the imperial capital recently, which is very troublesome for you." Warner asked Corey to get on his carriage.
Then he talked about the second brother Corey.
Corey said angrily: "My second brother has no ability. He can't manage a battalion well. He still wants a higher official position. If this continues, others will be unconvinced."
Warner shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If you don't care, others will say you are ruthless. If you don't, the people of the province will say you are unfair. Now some ministers have started to make a fuss out of this trivial matter."
Seeing Corey's open-mouthed expression, Warner said with a smile: "I'll teach you a trick. You go back to the province first and teach your second brother a lesson, then bring him to the imperial capital and arrange a false position for him."
, you have a high position but don’t care about anything, that’s not enough.”
"Good idea, hehe. I'll go back in a few days. I've already thought of a plan to select talents across the country, as well as a new method of training at the Royal Academy." Corey's worries turned to joy.
Warner and Corey were talking and laughing all the way, and slowly returned to the Imperial Capital. As soon as they arrived at the gate of the Imperial Capital, Watts jumped down, rode on Corey, and bit Corey hard: "
You've been gone for so many days without even thinking about me or writing me a letter."
Seeing that other officers were writing letters home, only Corey did not send a letter home, which made Wentz often go to the military headquarters. Every time he saw Corey not among the piles of letters, he would get angry.
Corey was bitten very painfully and screamed and hid behind Warner. Warner also had a headache for his sister, but he still said with the majesty of the emperor: "Witz, as a princess, you are still married and still acting like this." Watts.
His eyes turned red: "Brother Warner, he, he, he doesn't think about me either."
Warner then slowed down and said: "As a marshal, Corey has to command the battle. So what time is there? It's not even enough for sleeping. You have to be considerate of him."
Watts pursed his lips and angrily stopped talking.
Corey hugged Wentz and said, "Wentz, let me take you to a good place and have fun with you for a few days."
As soon as he heard that it was something interesting, Wentz immediately burst into tears and gave Corey a sweet smile.
Watts got off the carriage at the official entrance of the palace, went home to take a shower, changed into beautiful clothes, and prepared to have an intimate relationship with Corey when he came back.
But after Kerui entered the palace, he was first reported by Kerui's chief of staff on the situation of the expedition. It was the first time for the chief of staff to see His Majesty the Emperor so close to him, and because he was surrounded by all the powerful and important ministers of the kingdom, he was a little nervous when he spoke.
He added honorifics and gave a report for more than two hours.
The results of this expedition were so great that all the dignitaries listened attentively to the content of the report. Seeing everyone's seriousness, Corey was too embarrassed to be lazy, so he persisted and sat on the chair for more than two hours.
Finally, when Corey couldn't bear it anymore, the chief of staff finished his report.
"Your Majesty, I believe that Grand Duke Corey's battle, although showing off his power to the mainland, has made the mainland nervous. He will secretly strengthen his military power, reduce wars with neighboring countries, and even some kingdoms will form an alliance to fight against our Kingdom of Yasi." Prime Minister
The minister was the first to stand up and speak.
Warner nodded slightly.
The Prime Minister added: "Strengthening defense is the best policy. I hope your Majesty will allow the establishment of stronger defense fortresses in the three northern provinces."
The marshal of the kingdom was shocked and interrupted: "They are all scared. The money must be spent on important places. There is no need to build a fortress. Besides, the north is guarded by Marshal Muharlin. Who dares to take the initiative to attack."
Hearing what the Marshal of the Kingdom said, Corey and Warner looked at each other. They both felt that the Marshal of the Kingdom was strange today. The Prime Minister's face remained as usual and continued: "Marshal, you are wrong. Our country has the smallest land area and the smallest population. Although we have the smallest land area and the smallest population,
The Grand Duke of Rui may be victorious, but it is far from stopping the ambitions of other countries. There is nothing wrong with making adequate preparations."
