Britannian Empire, pandragon, Jacob's residence.

"Your Excellency."

The sound of the housekeeper sounded outside the room.

"Captain Cheng came to see you."

After the housekeeper's voice fell, Jacob, lying in bed with his eyes closed, opened his eyes slightly.

With a little surprise color, the eyes came out from this gap.

"Let him in..."

"Yes!"

……

……

Squeak

The door of the room was pushed open slowly.

Jacob turned his head.

A familiar figure with a complicated face came slowly from the door of the room towards Jacob.

"Sincere..." Jacob squeezed out a smile on his face and said in a half joking tone, "what's the matter? Why is your face so ugly? Was he bullied by someone outside? "

Looking at Jacob who was joking with him, Su Cheng's face slowly appeared a smile.

Although Su Cheng is now a father of three children and very old, Su Cheng still feels like a child in front of Jacob.

As long as you are by Jacob's side, you will feel safe.

Su Cheng's first reaction was to talk to Jacob when he was upset.

"Mr. Jacob..." Su Cheng chuckled, "I... Seem to have treated you like a father unconsciously..."

"Ha ha..." Jacob smiled. "Isn't this kind of thing known to the world long ago? I have long regarded you as myself. Sit down, Cheng, don't stand all the time. "

Su Cheng pulled a chair by the bed and sat at the head of Jacob's bed.

"Mr. Jacob..."

The happy look that just emerged from Su Cheng's face dissipated again and changed back to the complex expression full of bitterness at the beginning.

"Just now... Your majesty, she called all the staff of the general staff and convened a staff meeting."

Su Cheng talked about what happened today.

And Jacob in bed listened silently.

"Originally, the topic of the staff committee was very ordinary, just discussing how to calm the rebellion of the former Frankish empire..."

"But at this meeting... Your majesty, she... Put forward a terrible plan..."

Su Cheng told Jacob exactly what had happened at the just concluded staff meeting.

When he learned that Ilsa was going to launch a massacre and reduce the number of "original Franks" to at least half, Jacob's eyes were wide and his pupils were full of incredible color.

"Your Majesty, she..." Jacob's voice trembled slightly. "Is that really what he said?"

"That's right... Although there are many staff officers on the scene who oppose it, there are also many staff officers who support it..."

"Although the plan has not been finalized, from her Majesty's reactions, she is very fond of her plan..."

"Even if many people oppose it, your majesty, she may have to enforce the plan..."

……

……

"... alas."

After a long silence, Jacob gave a long sigh.

"Ilsa, why did she become like this..."

There was a tinge of pain in Jacob's tone.

"In just a few years, Ilsa has become... I can't recognize her..."

"The man who was originally ambitious and wanted to unify the mainland so that all the civilians on the mainland could live a peaceful life now plans to wave a butcher's knife at those innocent civilians..."

"Is it because successive years of victory reports have stunned Ilsa's head..."

Speaking of this, Jacob closed his eyes in pain as if he could not bear to say more.

Su Cheng, sitting on the chair at the head of the bed, is now hunching over.

Put your elbows on your legs and hold your hands together.

The hunchback is very powerful, as if there is no bone in it

"Mr. Jacob... I don't know what to do..."

Su Cheng's face was full of helplessness, like a child abandoned by his parents.

"I... Admire enly very much..."

Su Cheng whispered.

"Enly, he is... A great man..."

"I... feel inferior..."

"He will give his life for the justice he adheres to in his heart."

"And I... can't..."

"If I'm not married yet and still in a state of perseverance, I may be as desperate as enli for justice in my heart."

"And now I... Can't do it..."

"I have a wife and three children now..."

"I have too much concern..."

"These concerns make me timid..."

"I dare not do too much disobedience to your majesty..."

"On the eve of the first war of annihilation of the holy Hiram Empire, I questioned your Majesty's decision in the staff committee. This is the limit I can do..."

"I dare not do all these things, whether I attack your Majesty in public or admonish him in death..."

"I dare not make your majesty too unhappy. I'm afraid my family will be implicated..."

"But... It's hard for me to turn a blind eye to these absurd acts done by your majesty..."

"Whether it is the third war of annihilation against the holy Hiram empire."

"I strongly oppose the massacre of the 'former Franks' now."

"But I dare not oppose your majesty too much, and I can only make some painless protests..."

Speaking of this, Su Cheng's face showed a self mocking smile.

"The 'military God' respected by the world is actually a coward who is afraid to offend the monarch too much and dare not say 'no' loudly even in the face of things he doesn't agree with..."

"If you let people know my true face, I'm afraid many people will disillusion me..."

Su Cheng raised his hands and rubbed his face hard.

"Mr. Jacob... I don't know what to do..."

"Dare not provoke your majesty too much..."

"I don't want to be so silent..."

Jacob has been silently listening to Su Cheng's complaints since the beginning.

Until Su Cheng's voice fell completely, Jacob raised his old hand with skin like a dried orange peel and gently rubbed Su Cheng's head.

"Cheng... Your troubles are normal..."

"Worried about his family being implicated."

"I don't want to turn a blind eye to your Majesty's cruelty now."

"These are normal, which shows that you are a normal person..."

"You are just a knight whose duty is to 'fight for your country'."

"A lot of things, a lot of pressure, should not be borne by you."

"I can't give you too much advice..."

"The only advice I can give you is to do what I think is right and can make my heart feel comfortable..."
