Military Genius Came To Another World with Zizhi Tongjian

Vol 4 Chapter 422: The first meeting between the head and the governor

It is already sunset.

After learning that Su Cheng and his party were about to arrive in Betty City, Humphrey immediately took a group of important ministers from the north to take a bath, changed into clean clothes, and went to welcome them 5 miles away from the south gate of Betty City. A new head of the Michael Knights.

Humphrey and others had good luck. It didn't snow today, so they didn't need to hold an umbrella.

"Your Excellency." A middle-aged man standing behind Humphrey whispered in Humphrey's ear, "You can already see the leader of the car and the others."

"Yeah." Humphrey nodded softly. "It seems that they came earlier than we expected."

This middle-aged man standing behind Humphrey, named Arlin Roberts, is Humphrey’s deputy and also a very talented person. He can be regarded as Humphrey’s right and left hand. When Lai was not in the North, Yarlin was fully responsible for the affairs of the North.

The carriage of Su Cheng and the others, and the cavalry squadron responsible for guarding Su Cheng and the others, slowly advanced, slowly approaching Humphrey and the others.

After the horse convoy moved to a distance from Humphrey and the others, the horse convoy stopped.

Subsequently, the door of a carriage in the middle of the horse convoy was opened.

A young man with short black hair and another brunette young man who was slightly older than the black-haired young man got off the carriage.

The two young men wore knight swords on their waists. The black-haired young man wore a white sword, and the brown-haired young man wore a yellow sword.

In addition to wearing a knight's sword around his waist, the young brunette also held a spear in both hands.

——It is the michael gun that has the flag of the michael knights and has been passed down for nearly 300 years.

Although Humphrey had never seen Su Cheng and Willie, Humphrey had seen the portraits and simple appearances of the two.

So after the two young men got out of the car, Humphrey recognized at a glance that the black-haired young man was Su Cheng, and the brunette young man was Willie.

Su Cheng held the sword at his waist and walked towards Humphrey and the others with a smile, looking harmless to humans and animals.

And Willie is closely behind Su Cheng.

From time to time, there were a few breeze blowing, causing the flag on Michael's gun that was being held by Willie to unfold with the wind, revealing the big wind pattern in the center of the flag.

Su Cheng walked towards Humphrey steadily, and after a little distance, he bowed and saluted.

"Su Cheng, head of the Michael Knights, pay homage to the Governor of the Northern Territory!"

Seeing Su Cheng, who was the first to give him such a respectful salute, and shouted "See you" at him, Humphrey couldn't help showing a look of surprise.

Su Cheng is the commander of the Michael Knights and the highest person in charge of the Northern Front. In terms of status, Su Cheng is now one of the highest military attaches of the Britannia Empire, only Issel, the commander of the Gabriel Knights. He and Albert, the leader of the Rachel Knights, are equal to him. From the standpoint of status, no knight in the empire is higher than Su Cheng.

Humphrey is the governor of the North, and he is in charge of all affairs of the North. In terms of status, Humphrey can be regarded as one of the highest civil servants of the Britannia Empire and the most powerful local official.

Therefore, in terms of status, Su Cheng and Humphrey are equal. From some perspectives, Su Cheng’s status is higher than Humphrey. After all, there is no knight in the Empire anymore. His status is higher than Su Cheng, and above Humphrey, there are several civil servants who are higher than him, such as Jacob.

Su Cheng, who was at the same level as Humphrey, didn't need to pay such respect to Humphrey at all.

Looking at Su Cheng, who is so humble and polite, with such a sufficient posture, Humphrey's affection for Su Cheng can't help but rise a little.

Humphrey stepped forward and lifted Su Cheng, who was bowing to him, and then said with a smile:

"Your Excellency, the head of the delegation, doesn't need to bow to me so much, let alone say ‘goodbye’ to me. There is no one who is inferior between the two of us, so there is no need to be so formal."

"Your Excellency, you are 40 years older than me. You are my elder. Respecting the elders is what we younger generations should do."

After Humphrey straightened Su Cheng's body, Humphrey began to look closely at Su Cheng, who was close to him.

Although I have seen Su Cheng's portraits before, although the painters in charge of painting the portraits are very skilled and painted Su Cheng's portraits vividly, there are some things that can't be drawn.

For example-eyes and temperament.

As the Governor of the Northern Territory, Humphrey naturally read countless people. From Su Cheng's eyes and temperament, Humphrey could see that Su Cheng was a "quiet" young man who did not panic when he was in trouble.

He is a very reliable young man.

——Humphrey said inwardly like this in his heart.

At the same time, I began to feel that I had written Su Cheng's name at the last moment of voting at the round table, which was a very correct choice.

...

While Humphrey was looking at Su Cheng, Su Cheng was also looking at Humphrey.

Although Humphrey is only 58 years old this year, he has not even reached 60, but his hair is all gray.

His light blue eyes were full of confidence, his posture was upright, and his body exuded a capable color.

This is a capable person who is tempered by the reconciliation of talent and self-confidence.

——Su Cheng silently set his initial impression of Humphrey in his heart.

After Su Cheng and Humphrey greeted a few more times, Humphrey invited Su Cheng and Willie into the luxury carriage he had prepared, and sat in this car with Su Cheng and Willie. The carriage drove into Betty City.

Humphrey has prepared a simple reception feast for Su Cheng.

...

"Ah, Mr. and Mr. Willie got into the carriage with your Excellency the Governor~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Deng Jiaer, who stuck his face firmly on the window of the car, so that he could better observe the situation outside. Said like this.

After the horse caravan stopped, Alan, Deng Jiaer, Harouer, and Dana immediately leaned against the carriage window and watched through the transparent window of Su Cheng and Willie who got out of the carriage.

After Su Cheng and Willie were invited to Humphrey's long-prepared luxury carriage, the luxury carriage slowly drove towards Betty City.

After the carriage in which Su Cheng, Willie and Humphrey were seated, moved, the carriage of Alan and others also moved again, following the carriage and entering the city with the carriage. .

At this moment, the careful Hai Rou'er suddenly realized that Alan, who was sitting next to her, looked a little unsightly.

"Alan, what's the matter?" Hai Rou'er asked with concern, "Where is it uncomfortable?"

"No." Alan shook his head, "I am in good health, and there is nothing uncomfortable."

Having said that, Alan turned his head and leaned against the side car window.

Through the transparent window, he cast his gaze to the carriage that Su Cheng was sitting in front of.

"After I got to know my brother, no matter what we do, the two of us are always together. Where there is Alan, there is Su Cheng, and where there is Su Cheng, there is Alan." Alan whispered, "It's just that, with his brother and his Now his status is getting higher and higher, and there are more and more things to do. The scene that was inseparable from him in the past should be less and less..."

"Like now, there should be more and more scenes of sitting in a carriage different from him..."

After that, Alan squeezed out a slight smile.

It's just that there is a touch of bitterness in this smile.
