Chapter 153: struggle

"In addition to money, the most important thing is the soldiers."

After Jon Alling finished talking about the loan issue, the task was transferred to the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

"Understood, Lord Aylin."

The obese Chancellor of Finance sat on King Robert's right hand, and hurriedly moved his chair back with his belly, before he stood up and took over the task.

If the imperial prime minister is the king’s most important right-hand man, the minister of finance is the second most important post after imperial prime minister.

Although the old prince did his best, he was not able to run everything himself. At such an age, he was floating on the sea for more than a month to Braavos, and he was afraid that he would lose half of his life.

"His Majesty."

"Not long ago, we called for a counterinsurgency war against the Iron Islands. Now it is not easy to organize the soldiers again."

"While the loan is in place and the rewards are allocated, you still need your help..."

Although the king is an idiot, his character is bold and unruly, and he has a strong affinity.

It is especially popular among soldiers at the bottom. In the War of the Usurpers, Robert doesn't mind sleeping with the soldiers in the grass pit, eating a bowl of hard-to-swallow meals, and even fighting side by side on the front line.

In this regard, King Robert is very similar to Veselis, and Veselis also has a high prestige in the Andalus legion.

Except for the various noble, descent, and faith halo blessings above his head, and repeated victories, there has not been a single defeat so far.

There is another reason, naturally, that he has never put on any airs before, and he is also very affinity, except for the crown on his head, and even dressing and dressing are no different from ordinary civilians.

For Veserys, simple and clean clothes are fine. On the contrary, he doesn't like the gorgeous clothes that must be worn for important occasions.

All kinds of belts and decorations on the body, the whole body is shining like a human-shaped light bulb...

He also doesn't need to use gorgeous costumes to elevate his identity or distinguish him from civilians.

but.

The elder brother of Viselis, Prince Rega, has a higher reputation among the nobles.

One is the grass roots rolling in the mud, and the other is the silver peacock high above.

During the imperial meeting of the Red Fort, preparations for this war that might be expected to break out began to unfold.

...

And in the distant Andalus.

A month passed quietly.

A light autumn rain is coming.

Viselis was standing on an observation deck of the castle, holding the cold and hard window in his hand, overlooking the endless Andalus below.

This is the city of miracles he created in just over six years. From the very beginning, the soldiers built a simple wooden castle, and then began to move the surrounding Andal villages. There were coaxes, incentives, and even more. The threat of violence finally formed the prototype of Andalus.

From that time on, Veserys watched its gradual expansion, and finally grew to its current scale. Overlooking the roads extending in all directions, the houses are scattered in different directions, and several local chambers of commerce have even been established in taverns, brothels, and inns.

but...

Veserys looked at the city he had created below, and suddenly thought of the nine-tiered palace and giant red temple he had seen in Pantos, as well as Braavos's Sea King Palace and the Titan Giant, and his heart moved slightly.

He was wondering whether he wanted to build a wonder in Andalus?

Enhance people's sense of belonging, pride and cohesion.

However, this thought only passed through Visiris's mind, and then disappeared without a trace.

Poverty is still the original sin.

Then the young king sighed while holding on to the wall, then turned and looked behind him. There was a man wearing a metal mask standing behind him.

His figure is extremely thin, and his whole body is tightly wrapped up and down. Except for the two openings in the eyes of the mask, all the skin is wrapped up, including the neck, which is wrapped in white gauze and is not exposed. Cents.

His standing posture is also a little strange, leaning on the wall behind him, panting slightly, seeming to be struggling with himself, trying to make himself stand up.

Veselis stood there looking at the once brave knight, who has now become this way. There is some regret in his eyes, and he opened his mouth several times to say something, but in the end he persuaded him. If he gave up, he swallowed it back.

"Bessie."

"It's really a miracle that you can survive."

This man wrapped up and down tightly and wearing a metal mask is the former Visiris's personal guard, and Bessie, the son of the Andal warrior with a seven-pointed star carved on his shoulder.

But whether this Yulin Tiewei or the son of a warrior, after experiencing such a terrible disaster, it is a miracle to survive, but in the second half of his life, he is destined to be unable to pick up the sword again and become a cripple.

But Bessie was unwilling to lie in the hospital bed for the rest of his life after she was lucky enough to get his life back. When Viselis went to visit him, he made a request to Viselis.

He hopes that he can still become the king's guard. He firmly believes that he can stand up again and become a useful person. He hopes that His Majesty the King can give him a chance.

And Viselis was holding Bessi's scorched and cracked palm at that time, and besides being astonished, he saw a certain persistence in his eyes.

In the end, Veserys nodded and agreed.

However, although Bessie has recovered a life, it is still a long and difficult way to stand up.

Hearing Visiris's voice, the knight who was battling with him raised his head slightly, and then said in a hoarse voice, breathing heavily.

"It is not a miracle that I can survive~www.NovelMTL.com~ Your Majesty."

"It is the gods in the heavens who think that I still have a good use to protect me, the Merciful Mother..."

Next, Bessie wanted to talk about it again, but Visiris had heard his story several times.

Bessie is a faithful believer of the Seven Gods. He is also engraved with the seven-pointed star on his shoulder. He is the son of the warrior elected by the village.

In the fire, he rushed in to save his mother and Daenerys, but as soon as he entered the fire, he lost his way, and the smoke filled with it. In the end, Bessie was hit by a ceiling above his head. To the ground.

Fortunately, the ceiling gave him a certain amount of insulation and space, and he was finally rescued.

And he was trapped in a small corner before suffocating and fainting, praying to the seven gods.

therefore.

He always believed that the reason he could survive by miracle was that the seven gods in the sky heard his prayers and finally saved his life.
