Britannia Empire, pandragon, Su Cheng's home.

It's time for dinner now. Carol is preparing everyone's dinner in the kitchen. Alan and Deng Jiaer, who have nothing to do, are sitting on the sofa in the hall. While waiting for the dinner to be ready, they chat together.

"I don't know when this round table will be held?" Alan asked.

"Generally speaking, the round table will last for several days, usually three to five days." Deng Jiaer replied, "the longest round table in the history of the British Empire has been held for eight days."

"It's going to last for several days..." Alan's face collapsed, "that is, the merit reward conference will have to wait a few more days... Forget it, it's only a few days anyway. After the merit reward conference, we can go to the south."

Speaking of this, Alan's face burst into joy again: "I've long wanted to see what an elephant looks like! When I followed my brother to the southern front, I thought I could see elephants, but I didn't see anything... "

"Elephants... Compared with elephants, I'd like to taste the fruits that are only available in the south."

Deng Jia'er wiped the corners of her mouth as she said this.

"Don't you say your hometown is in the southeast of the Empire? If your hometown is in the southeast, have you seen elephants and eaten Southern fruits? "

"You remember it all backwards!" Deng Jiaer said angrily, "the Duke of North Munster, my hometown, is in the northwest of the Empire! I'm from the North like Carol! How could you have seen elephants and eaten Southern fruits! "

"So your hometown is in the northwest." Alan rubbed his little head. "It seems that I remember wrong. I remember southeast."

"I don't know how you remember it. It's completely reversed..."

"I don't care about such a small thing!" Alan waved his hand. "Let's have a good discussion about going to the south! This time I'm going to the south. I'm going to buy a lot of local handicrafts! "

"Do you have so much money?" Deng Jiaer looked at Alan suspiciously.

"Just ask my brother for it." Alan said in a casual tone, "I have contributed so much to this' summer wind 'offensive. It's reasonable to ask my brother for money as a reward?"

"I don't think my husband will pay attention to you... Handicrafts... Compared with handicrafts, I want to taste all the delicious food in the south."

"You really like eating. Don't you find that you seem to have a little more meat?"

"Long, long! What's wrong with enjoying delicious food? And my flesh hasn't changed! You read it wrong! "

As soon as Deng Jiaer's words fell, Carol's voice came from the kitchen:

"Dinner is ready! You can eat! "

As Carol said this, she came out of the kitchen with a large plate full of noodles.

"Dinner ~ ~" Alan cheered and walked quickly towards the table.

Deng Jiaer, who has always been greedy, naturally followed.

"When I was in the kitchen just now, I heard you talking fiercely." Carol asked Alan, "what are you talking about?"

"There's nothing to talk about." Alan replied, "I was just discussing what to do after playing in the south. I said I would buy a lot of unique handicrafts in the south. Deng Jiaer said I would taste all the delicious food in the south."

Speaking of this, Alan paused, then asked Carol:

"Carol, what do you want to do after you go to the south?"

"What do you want to do..."

Carol looked up slightly and thought for a moment, then smiled:

"There are too many things I want to do and eat to say. However, as long as I can play with you, I will be very happy. "

With these words, Carol turned her head and shouted in the direction of the stairs:

"Honesty! Dinner is ready! You can come down to dinner! "

……

Quiet

No answer came.

"Sincerity --!" Carol's voice was louder than before. "Dinner's ready!"

Quiet

There was still no answer.

Seeing that Su Cheng in his room still didn't respond after he shouted twice, Carol couldn't help frowning slightly.

In the past, Su Cheng responded to her quickly and went downstairs immediately.

Like now, it is rare that Carol shouted twice and didn't respond.

"It seems that my brother hasn't been out of the house or downstairs since the strange man came to our house and sent a letter to him." Alan frowned.

Just now, a man wrapped in a big robe and a big hood knocked on the door of their house.

The man who opened the door was Carol, who was just on the first floor.

After Carol opened the door, the strange man told Carol directly that he was looking for Su Cheng.

After Carol found Su Cheng who was in her room at that time, the strange man handed Su Cheng a letter. After giving the letter to Su Cheng, the strange man left.

Su Cheng took the letter from the strange man's hand and immediately returned to his room.

Up to now, Su Cheng hasn't come out of the room.

"I'll call my brother down. Really, what are you doing in the room..." said Alan, who was already sitting at the table, and was about to get up.

——But it was soon pressed back by Carol.

"Alan, Deng Jiaer, you two have dinner first. I'll call Cheng down."

With that, Carol hurried to the stairs.

Su Cheng's room, like Carol's room, is located on the highest floor of the house, that is, the third floor.

Quickly climbed up the third floor and came to Su Cheng's door. Carol knocked on Su Cheng's door: "Cheng, come down for dinner and dinner is ready."

Quiet

There was still no response.

"Is he really asleep..." Carol murmured. "It's still early... Cheng, he can't go to bed so early... Then - I'll be rude first."

After mumbling a few words, Carol raised her hand, grabbed the handle of Su Cheng's door and opened the unlocked wooden door.

If Su Cheng has the most things in his room, it is undoubtedly books.

Su Cheng's books were so many that there was nowhere to put them. They were stacked everywhere in the room.

After entering Su Cheng's room, Carol smelled a faint "Book smell".

"Honesty? You didn't sleep. "

After entering Su Cheng's room, Carol immediately began to move her eyes and search for Su Cheng's figure.

Soon, Carol found Su Cheng.

Su Cheng is standing in front of his desk.

He was looking down at something.

"Really..." Carol said angrily, "Cheng, since you haven't slept, give me a good response --"

"Carol..."

Before Carol finished, Su Cheng interrupted in a low voice.

The tone is full of fatigue and helplessness.

"We... May not be able to go to the South..."

"Hey?" Carol looked at Su Cheng puzzled and stunned. "Cheng, what happened?"

"... sorry, I can't tell you yet. After all, this is a state secret. I can't tell others before it's time to tell..." Su Cheng said, putting the letter in his hand into a nearby oil lamp and letting the flame in the oil lamp burn the letter to ashes.

After throwing the letter into the oil lamp, Su Cheng looked up, looked through the window close to the desk in front of him, and looked at the sky outside.

"Alas... Spare me..."

Looking at the sky outside, Su Cheng sighed.

The tone is full of fatigue and helplessness.

At the same time, a little more... The color of pain

……

……

The round table did not last long.

On October 25, 290, the 26th round table of the British Empire, which lasted five days, finally ended smoothly.

The meeting was not damaged or interfered by any enemy spies. It can be regarded as a rare and very smooth meeting in history.

The round table discussed a lot of things. Most of the topics discussed were related to how to enhance the military strength of the Empire.

In addition to the reconstruction of the Michael knights and the formation of the fourth knights, many military reforms were also discussed.

The end of the round table also announced that the participants from afar could leave pandragon

……

"Jacob, are you here to see me off?" Humphrey, standing by the carriage door, smiled at Jacob standing in front of him.

"Yes. I'm going to see you off. " Jacob smiled and replied, "but that's just one of the reasons why I came to you. I came to you to ask you. Are you really not going to see him? Don't you want to meet the new head of Michael's knights and your future partner? "

"No." Humphrey waved his hand. "There's nothing to see. There are still a lot of things to deal with in the north. Even for a minute, I'll go back to the North early."

"And -- I'll see him in the North soon, won't I?"

With that, Humphrey boarded the carriage.

"Thank you, Jacob. Thank you for coming to see me off. I don't know if I have time to attend this year's year-end dinner. If I have time to attend, let's meet again at this year's year-end dinner! "

"Well, Humphrey, have a nice trip!"

"Take care, too, Jacob. You should pay attention to rest. Driver, let's start. "

The experienced coachman waved the reins in his hand, and the carriage moved slowly at once.

The hundreds of elite cavalry who were responsible for protecting Humphrey immediately turned over and mounted their horses, closely guarded Humphrey's carriage, and set out with Humphrey's carriage to the North outside pandragon.

……

Humphrey lifted the curtain from the window and looked out of the carriage.

They had already left pandragon.

Outside the window, Humphrey is very familiar with the scenery outside the imperial capital.

Looking out the window at the flowers and plants slowly falling back, Humphrey murmured, "did you choose him to be the new head of the Michael Knights..."

"Really... I don't know if my choice is right..."

With that, Humphrey sighed, then closed the curtains and began to close his eyes.

The carriage continued to drive forward and North.
