"Oh?" Humphrey raised his eyebrows. "I asked you before. You didn't tell me. Why do you agree to tell me now?"
"Because I hesitated before and hesitated to recommend him as the new commander of the Michael Knight order, but now I have determined and determined since the victory of the 'summer wind' offensive. I have decided to hand over the Michael Knight Order and the northern front of the Empire to him."
After listening to Jacob's words quietly, Humphrey sipped the black tea in the cup silently and said:
"Let me guess if the man you like also took part in the 'summer wind' offensive. He performed very well in the 'summer wind' offensive. His extraordinary performance successfully moved you and made you more confident in him. Therefore, after dispelling your last hesitation, you decided to push him to be the new head of Michael's knights, Am I right? "
"Ha ha." Jacob smiled a few times, "it's really worthy of being the governor of the northern territory who has been in charge of the Northern Territory for 10 years. You're right."
"That is to say, the person you selected participated in the 'summer wind' offensive? Who is it? Tell me. "
"This is his personal data."
As he spoke, Jacob took a piece of paper out of his arms and handed it to Humphrey.
"Take your time."
After taking the paper from Jacob, Humphrey immediately began to look at it carefully.
Humphrey's face grew more and more stunned and shocked as his eyes continued to sweep from line to line of words.
After calmly reading everything written on the paper, Humphrey put down the paper and said to Jacob in a deep voice:
"Jacob... Are you serious? Are you really going to choose him as the new head of the Michael knights? "
"Yes." Jacob replied, "I'm very serious. In my mind, he is the new head of Michael's knights. "
"Isn't that ridiculous!" Humphrey cried out, "can he be the head of the knights at his age and with such qualifications? Can he convince the public? "
"Humphrey, have you forgotten your precedent? Ten years ago, before I recommended you as the new governor of the Northern Territory, weren't you just an ordinary horse keeper? And didn't you do a good job? During the 10 years in charge of the Northern Territory, the Northern Territory has become one of the richest regions in China. "
"This..."
Humphrey was speechless.
Because he himself soared with the recommendation of Jacob. Before being recommended by Jacob, he was just an old man who wanted to be qualified but didn't have any qualifications.
"I asked you to come and have a secret meeting with me this time. In addition to telling you about the person I selected, the main purpose is to get you to support me."
Jacob's expression became more and more serious.
"If you can, I hope you can support me at the round table meeting the day after tomorrow! Support me in electing him to be the new head of the Michael Knights! "
“……”
Humphrey was silent for a long time before he finally spoke. However, he did not directly respond to what Jacob had just said, but asked Jacob:
"Is he really the best person in your mind?"
"That's right."
"Based on what? Why do you think he can manage the Michael knights and successfully rebuild the Michael knights? "
"... from his amazing military talent and my intuition."
"Intuition..." Humphrey smiled mockingly. "That's what you said 10 years ago when people asked you why you recommended me as the new governor of the north."
"... thank you for remembering."
"How could such a thing be forgotten?"
Jacob, with a tired look on his face, sighed deeply: "... Let me think about whether to support you at the round table."
Speaking of this, Humphrey was silent for a moment, and then said again:
"Did you tell him about it? Did you tell him that you intend to recommend him as the new head of the Michael knights? "
"... not yet."
"Jacob, you'd better tell him about it." Humphrey smiled bitterly, "at least tell others about it in advance, so that others can make psychological preparations early."
At this point, Humphrey paused again, with a thoughtful look on his face.
Then Humphrey murmured:
"After I became the governor of the Northern Territory, I understood more and more that high-ranking positions such as palace minister, governor of the Northern Territory and head of the Knights are actually a curse."
"Will bear the pressure and responsibility that ordinary people don't dare to think about, and will lose special and many things at the same time..."
"Just like you and I lost all our rest time, working day and night..."
Humphrey had a self deprecating smile on his face.
"I'm so busy that I don't even have time to accompany my family..."
Jacob listened to Humphrey's words with an expressionless face. He was silent, silent and thoughtful
……
October 19, 290 in the imperial calendar of the British Empire.
8:15 a.m.
Su Cheng, who has just sent Carol to work in Owen's restaurant, has now returned to his home.
After returning home, as Su Cheng expected, Alan and Deng Jiaer haven't got up yet.
Sleepy Alan doesn't have to say that he usually needs to sleep until more than 10 o'clock to get up.
Deng Jiaer, who had also got up very early, did not know whether it was because he was too tired on the southern front. In the past few days after returning to panderagon, he slept for a long time every day.
Sitting on the sofa and looking at the empty hall, Su Cheng thought to himself:
Ok... What are you going to do today? Do you want to continue translating Zizhi Tongjian?
Su Cheng's "Zizhi Tongjian" still has about tens of thousands of words to translate.
After thinking for a while, Su Cheng gave up the idea of continuing to translate Zizhi Tongjian.
After all, Su Cheng is also a person. He is also eager to get a rest.
Just after returning from the southern front, Su Cheng also wants to have a good rest for a few days. Let's postpone the translation of Zizhi Tongjian until later.
Just as Su Cheng was thinking about what to do today, there were bursts of knocking at the door.
"Here we are."
Although Su Cheng was very strange, who would knock on his door so early, Su Cheng still walked quickly to the door and opened the door in three steps and two steps.
After opening the door, Su Cheng saw a middle-aged man dressed as four waiters standing in front of his house.
"Mr. Su Cheng. Your safety. " The waiter respectfully saluted Su Cheng and then said, "I'm Mr. Jacob's attendant. Mr. Jacob invites you to his residence for a cup of tea."
"Mr. Jacob?"
Su Cheng blinked suspiciously.
Naturally, Su Cheng would not think that as a busy man, Jacob would simply invite him to tea.
Mr. Jacob... Is there anything important to tell me... Forget it, don't think much, just go and know.
"OK." Su Cheng replied, "let me prepare. I'll be there right away."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Oh?" Humphrey raised his eyebrows. "I asked you before. You didn't tell me. Why do you agree to tell me now?"
"Because I hesitated before and hesitated to recommend him as the new commander of the Michael Knight order, but now I have determined and determined since the victory of the 'summer wind' offensive. I have decided to hand over the Michael Knight Order and the northern front of the Empire to him."
