Heroes of Silver Moon
Chapter 525: : Return to the capital
The wheels rolled against the bluestone slabs, making a throaty sound. The carriage stopped in front of the Grand Duke's mansion in the noble district, and Simon walked down with a look of nostalgia.
The four years of his career in the capital are almost fleeting, and now it has been nearly three years since he left here, time flies so fast!
In the lord's study of Xinfaling that day, he explained many things to Deborah and Harris, such as the future business development of Xinfaling, agricultural development, discipline of the new army, and the appointment of officials.
The last one is especially important.
Because of the expulsion of a group of officials who broke the law and discipline, those bachelors slandered the laws of the new law and Simon's reputation after they left. Now the new law can't recruit new officials at all.
In desperation, Simon could only pick up an idea he had once had - to appoint those elf slaves as regents!
Since coming to the territory, these elves have basically nothing to do except help him take care of the garden and clean up the lord's mansion.
This made Simon very dissatisfied. He bought this group of elf slaves, not for them to come and eat.
The dwarves are helping Simon refine metals, and the orcs are helping Simon produce weapons and ammunition. These elves must also play their roles.
But this group of elves was slender, and even the head of the elf village guard looked like he would be blown down by the wind at any time, obviously unable to do physical work.
But Simon didn't need them to work either.
Elves are a knowledge-based race. Although most of them can only read and write at the most basic level, this is enough for the new dharma leader.
Simon has formulated a special government affairs system-councilor system.
That is to say, with Deborah as the core and these elf slaves as the assistant, an administrative system similar to the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty was built.
For all the government affairs of the new law, these assistant officials do not have any power to manage. They can only make simple analysis and handling suggestions on the submitted government affairs, and finally Deborah will carry out the second processing and instructions.
Although the disadvantages of this system are great, the situation of the new legal collar is here. Simon can only pinch his nose and use it first, and then make another change when there are enough trusted officials.
Glancing back secretly at the opposite mansion, Simon felt a little guilty when he found that there was no movement. He pushed open the door of the Grand Duke's mansion and walked in.
"Simon!" Seeing Simon's arrival, Mike's eyelids visibly jumped.
"Brother!" Christine also showed surprise, wondering why Simon came to the capital.
"Master Simon!" The old butler Villarreal gave Simon a strange look, as if he had thought of something interesting.
"Uh...it's okay. I accepted the commission of the royal family and came to the capital to deal with some matters. You don't have to be so surprised." Simon turned his head and looked guilty again.
After finding that there was still no abnormality, he let go of a hanging heart.
"Brother, are you okay?" Christine asked suspiciously.
"Cough...cough, it's all right, by the way, Christine, how is your study recently?" Simon asked with interest. He remembered that his younger brother was majoring in a bachelor's degree.
"It's not bad. Christine studied very hard, and with my tutoring, she can be regarded as an excellent student in this class." Mike replied on behalf of Christine.
"Ah, my dear Mike, it's been a long time since I've seen you. We must catch up on the past later."
Simon smiled gently at first, then looked at Christine and said: "The new law collar has just been established and needs a lot of administrative officials. After you graduate next year, go to the new law collar as an official for a while, and accumulate some time by the way. Administrative experience."
There are free tools, why not use them? Simon has always been good at using tool people.
The corner of Christine's mouth twitched, and she nodded tactfully, without resisting Simon's arrangement.
After all, his life is like this, and the right to choose is always in the hands of others.
But then again, why isn't his elder brother like this? Christine looked at Simon with a look of pity.
As he grew older, he also gradually saw some things clearly. Although his elder brother looked beautiful, he didn't know how much pressure he was carrying behind him.
Family, parents, lovers, brothers and friends, one kind of expectation after another weighed on this elder brother.
Sometimes, Christine really doesn't know, isn't Simon tired because he has survived like this?
"Ahem...Mike." Simon came to Mike and asked with an embarrassed expression: "Well, how is that person doing recently? Is there anything unusual?"
Mike rolled his eyes, and replied helplessly: "If you want to ask about Princess Irina's condition, just ask, why are you so...... guilty? A man, if you dare to do it, you must dare to be it!"
Simon suddenly felt a toothache, even Mike knew about those things, doesn't that mean...
"Cough... that, bro."
He leaned over to Christine again and asked, "How is your sister Irina's mood recently? Does she seem happy?"
Christine looked behind Simon, and the appearance of a figure made him froze instantly, and replied with an unnatural expression: "Well, I think it's none of our business!"
After finishing speaking, Christine and Mike looked at each other, and then bypassed Simon and ran out of the Grand Duke's mansion at a very fast speed.
God knows, how did these two bachelors, whose physique is like ordinary people, run out of afterimages?
As for the old housekeeper with handicapped legs? I don't know when I ran away and disappeared!
Simon was taken aback for a moment~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Then his pupils dilated suddenly, and cold sweat ran down his back and cheeks. He turned around tremblingly, and sure enough, he saw the beautiful figure of Irina.
"Listen to my sophistry...uh, explain!" Looking at the beautiful woman who had been thinking about him day and night, Simon was silent for a long time, and finally choked out such a sentence.
"Hush..." Her Royal Highness raised her fair index finger, put it gently on Simon's lips, and said with a smile, "I won't listen!"
boom! A punch hit the face, and Simon immediately flew backwards, dust was flying, the bluestone bricks were cracked, and the whole person was embedded in the wall of the mansion.
A piercing pain was fed back to the brain by the body, especially the face. The shock made Simon's head buzzing, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
Before he could catch his breath, Irina, who was wearing a long white princess dress, was shining with spell runes all over her body. This was the sign that the melee mage had finished blessing the melee spells. With a sudden kick, she rushed to Simon in the blink of an eye.
No one could have imagined that the white and delicate fists could strike such a fierce attack. Under the beating of the storm, Simon's nose and face were swollen almost instantly, like a pig's head.
It wasn't over yet, Erina grabbed Simon's clothes like a puppet, and fell back and forth, knocking down several houses in the mansion.
Amidst the rubble, Erina carried the half-dead Simon, the anger in her heart subsided, and she sneered, "Hey, isn't this our Great Lord Simon? Why don't you stay with the elf sisters in the territory and come to the capital What are you doing?"
Simon, who was still awake to a certain extent, felt that it would be better to pass out at this moment.
It's over, Her Royal Highness really knows.
