Chapter 202: Coach of the East Route Army and Coach of the West Route Army (Part 2)
Pendragon, Baiyang Palace, the emperor's study.
"Your Majesty, Su Cheng, Knight of Two Oaks, is here to see you."
After being led into the emperor's study by the guards, Su Cheng immediately respectfully saluted Ge Zewen who was sitting behind a long table.
Just now, the guard came to Su Cheng's home and asked Su Cheng to rush to Baiyang Palace to accept the summons of Emperor Ge Zewen.
Therefore, Su Cheng quickly changed his clothes and followed the guard to Baiyang Palace.
After arriving at Baiyang Palace, the guard led Su Cheng directly into the study room where Emperor Ge Zewen usually worked.
After entering the study, Su Cheng saw that in addition to Emperor Gozewen, there was also his old acquaintance Jacob, who had always taken care of him like his own son.
In addition to Ge Zewen and Jacob, there are 6 middle-aged and elderly people.
It's just that Su Cheng doesn't know these 6 middle-aged and elderly people.
Now, these seven middle-aged and elderly people, including Jacob, are gathered around Emperor Ge Zewen's long table, drinking black tea with Ge Zewen with a leisurely expression.
"No gift."
Ge Zewen smiled while sipping the black tea in his hand.
"yes!"
After receiving Go Zewen's permission to exempt himself from the ceremony, Su Cheng immediately ended the kneeling ceremony and stood up from the ground.
After Su Cheng stood up from the ground, Ge Zewen continued:
"Cheng, let's have a cup of black tea together."
Ge Zewen smiled and slightly raised the black tea cup filled with black tea in his hand and shook it.
"There is one person who hasn't arrived yet. Once that person arrives, we can officially start talking to you about the business. So before we talk about the business, let's have a leisurely cup of black tea together and relax."
"Huh? Is that okay?" Su Cheng said in surprise.
"of course."
Ge Zewen took out a clean tea cup from under the table and poured a full cup of fragrant black tea into it.
"I usually stay in this study room, and after discussing business matters with the ministers, I will drink a cup of black tea with them from time to time and relax."
After saying that, Ge Zewen handed the cup of black tea in the direction of Su Cheng.
"Come! Take it! Let's drink together!"
"Then...I would like to thank Your Majesty in advance."
Ge Zewen had already said this, and also prepared the black tea and handed it to the direction of Su Cheng. If Su Cheng didn't take it quickly, it would look like Su Cheng was a little confused and confused. That's rude.
After walking quickly over, Su Cheng respectfully took the cup of black tea from Ge Zewen's hand.
After taking the cup of black tea, Su Cheng took a few steps back and to the right - he didn't want to stand in front of His Majesty the Emperor and drink tea, as it would be too rude.
After taking a few steps back, Su Cheng handed the teacup in his hand towards his lips.
After bringing the tea cup to his neck, Su Cheng felt the charming aroma of tea coming from the black tea in the cup.
Great tea! It is indeed the tea that His Majesty the Emperor drinks!
——Su Cheng sighed in his heart.
Since coming to this other world and the Britannia Empire, he has been dealing with the Britannia people day and night, and some of Su Cheng's habits have changed under the influence of the Britannia people. Quite a change.
For example - drink black tea.
Su Cheng was originally a person who had no interest in black tea, but after coming to the Britannia Empire, under the influence of the Britannia people around him who "have black tea flowing in their veins", Su Cheng gradually began to Fall in love with drinking black tea.
And I love drinking more and more.
By now, Su Cheng has become a fanatical fan of black tea. If he doesn't drink some black tea for a day, he will feel uncomfortable all over.
For Su Cheng, who is now a little rich man, the black tea he usually drinks is naturally not that ordinary kind.
However, even Su Cheng, who was used to drinking high-end black tea, was still surprised by the quality of the cup of black tea in his hand after smelling the aroma.
This was the first time Su Cheng smelled such fragrant black tea.
Just by smelling it, the salivary glands in the mouth can't help but secrete saliva continuously.
After swallowing the large amount of saliva secreted from his mouth, Su Cheng hurriedly passed the black tea in his hand towards his lips.
Just as Su Cheng expected - it tastes great!
Wow, it’s so cool to be an emperor. I can drink such great black tea every day. I wonder where your Majesty bought these black teas?
Just as Su Cheng was enjoying the cup of black tea in his hand and sighing that His Majesty Ge Zewen's life was so wonderful——
"Mr. Cheng."
——Jacob's voice suddenly came from beside him.
"Mr. Jacob, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing. Let's go to the window and chat for a while while watching the scenery," Jacob smiled. "Anyway, there is still some time before we get down to business, so it's okay for the two of us to chat together."
After hearing what Jacob said, Su Cheng secretly looked at the other people in the study room.
The other people basically gathered together in twos and threes, enjoying the black tea in their hands and talking about something.
Although I don’t know what they were talking about, judging from their expressions, they were probably chatting about trivial matters such as “My daughter gave birth to a girl again.”
His Majesty Ge Zewen, on the other hand, was leaning on the back of his chair, squinting his eyes and carefully tasting the black tea in his hand. Judging from his appearance, he must be resting.
It seems that we can talk freely now...
After Su Cheng said this silently in his heart, he smiled and replied to Jacob:
"Well, okay, Mr. Jacob, let's have a leisurely chat together."
After that, Su Cheng and Jacob walked together towards a floor-to-ceiling window in the study.
"Mr. Cheng, be happy."
After coming to the window, Jacob smiled and said to Su Cheng:
"I have good news for you."
"good news?"
"Yes, good news, how about it? Want to guess what the good news is?"
Su Cheng pondered, thinking about what kind of good news it would be.
Urgent call to my Emperor... The "Spring Awakening" offensive has finally ended recently... The map of the southern frontline of the empire placed on His Majesty Gozevin's long table... Good news for me, a knight...
Su Cheng thought for a while and then said in a half-joking tone:
"Mr. Jacob, isn't it going to launch another large-scale war, and then you won the position of army commander or deputy army commander for me like last year's rescue battle in the Kingdom of Lund, right?"
For some reason, Su Cheng felt that after he said this, the smile on Jacob's face suddenly became weird.
"...Am I right?"
"No, that's half right. We are indeed going to launch another large-scale war."
"However, the second half of your sentence is wrong."
"I did not win the position of Army Commander or Deputy Army Commander for you this time."
"This time I directly won the position of army commander for you."
"Huh?!" Su Cheng looked at Jacob dumbfounded.
