"……Are you awake?"

Arthur was still in pain the first second, and suddenly woke up the next second.

He was lying in the secret room again, the crown was lying safely beside him, and the gray undead floating in front of him looked concerned, "Did you die once, did you become stupid?"

Arthur picked up the crown and threw it at the undead. The golden crown passed through the undead's body and fell to the ground with a "clang".The undead turned his head 180 degrees to see the scene where the crown landed, and turned his head back after watching it.

"Well, I've wanted to drop it for a long time."

Arthur was weak for a while, he was dead, but he was alive again, this contradictory result meant that there must be something hidden in it, didn't you see that the undead was already clearing his throat and preparing for a long speech?

"You must have experienced it too. This is our fate, the fate of the king." The undead sighed faintly, "We are always repeating death."

"The king, who was cursed by the devil, could not decide his own destiny, lingered on the throne surrounded by swords, swords and halberds until he died, and was still scolded."

Seeing that Arthur was silent, the undead trembled in the gray mist around him.

"Come on, let's take a look at what your subjects think of you after you die, and where your country will go in the end!"

In the gray mist, the Cerberus family crest of the Will family first appeared. The silver and white banner on a red background fluttered in the manic wind of the battlefield.Under the banner was Cedric's still young face. He stared at the opposite camp expressionlessly. When he saw the familiar king's banner of eagles and roses, he was furious!

"Unforgivable! Unforgivable! His Majesty is dead, and his flag will be defiled by you, a traitor!"

He was originally a great nobleman, and he didn't need to go to the battlefield himself, but he still stood here, just out of anger.

The voice of the undead suddenly interspersed, "Well, you have a loyal subject."

Arthur was also slightly touched. Most of the noble families believed in being wise and safe, but Cedric... seemed to be unwilling to admit the new king who killed Arthur, so he revolted.

The kingdom was involved in the flames of war, which lasted for several years. Arthur did not see the final result. The gray fog slowly dissipated. The undead sighed for a while, wrapped up the golden crown on the ground, and handed it to Arthur.

"Come on, start your new life."

Arthur had so many reluctances, but he knew that he couldn't resist this fate for the time being.

"You can try to find the devil. This is the beginning of all our misfortunes. If we can deceive him, we can be freed from this hopeless fate." There is not much hope in the words of the dead soul, he seems to have finished The task also reminds Arthur, "Cheat the devil and break free from the curse of the Middle Ages!"

Arthur wrote down his words, the door of the secret room opened before his eyes, a slightly harsh light fell into the secret room, the undead shrank back and watched Arthur go out.

The sound of ceremonies and music celebrating the new king's enthronement sounded all around again.

After one experience, Arthur's control over the entire country rose to a new level. He decisively agreed to the scientist Master Ibn Sur's request to develop new weapons, and at the same time found a balance between the church and the people.

What he wants is not to leave the name of benevolent monarch in the history books, but what he wants is to achieve a proper balance of forces in all aspects during his reign. What tricks can you play!

Arthur basically figured out the rules of the game, and it developed steadily to the seventh year in one breath.

He still reused Courtney, after all, in the entire business circle, Arthur couldn't find a more powerful spokesperson than the other party.It doesn't matter if the other party has a psychological problem, Arthur has already found out where the other party's heart disease is, and if necessary, he can perform "surgery" to deal with this hidden danger.

Like a nightmare, the Silk Road project was put on the agenda again. Arthur had already reserved enough start-up funds this time, and the parliament passed it on the spot for Cotney to save face.

Sir Godfried, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, expressed concern, and Arthur appeased him, but he did not agree to the request to marry the princess of the Northern Kingdom to strengthen the border defense.His country is now powerful and strong, and no one dares to overshadow him. It is not his style to look forward and look backward, fearing east and west. Since marrying a princess is not what he wishes in his heart, he will not marry him.

After the political meeting was over, Courtney stayed, and with Cedric's murderous eyes, he said triumphantly that he wanted to discuss the specific implementation plan of the Silk Road Project with His Majesty. No one can compare with him in this respect. He is professional.

Arthur smiled and watched the two of them chattering and chatting in what they thought were small movements, and a strange urge to play together arose in his heart.

Huh?Why does he feel that men are cuter between men?

"Cedric will also stay." The king raised his voice and ordered, "The oriental silk transported through the silk road still needs your network of contacts among the nobles to help sell it."

Courtney's face was a bit slumped. As a qualified businessman, he still had a proper modest smile on his face, but there was a slight grievance in his eyes that made Arthur feel very cordial.

Cedric immediately raised his eyebrows, and reservedly made a noble salute, "I obey, Your Majesty."

Courtney: Day!

After the court meeting, the monarchs and ministers got together, and the two ministers who were currently being reused went back together awkwardly. Of course, cynicism and ridicule along the way were indispensable. Cedric looked down on the vulgar businessman, and Courtney also couldn't understand the hypocrisy of the nobles. scattered.Kurtner felt angry, so he simply skipped the carriage and walked back to the shop by himself.

The servant served him a cup of oriental black tea, and then quietly left. Courtney stayed in the room alone, turning the ring from Ramascus on his thumb, and suddenly remembered a meeting with a Ramascus businesswoman before.

[Unfortunately, in the eyes of people in this country, businessmen are considered lowly.Even if you are reused by the king and the Silk Road Project is implemented, you cannot deny this. 】

[If you want to really solve this problem, and want to live as a businessman with your chest upright, there is only one way——]

【Establish your own kingdom for merchants! 】

Black emotions began to ferment in his heart again, and Kurt felt a pang in his heart.

Yes, businessmen can't get rid of being humble after all...

"Matt, I'll leave it up to you here." Arthur skillfully changed into casual clothes, and the hound Rex was at his feet, barking excitedly for the upcoming outing.

Matt's face was full of tears, he was not very courageous, he was really afraid that the king's sneaking out of the palace would be discovered, the deduction of bonuses was still small, and he was afraid that he would be beaten by his father, the old servant.

It hurts when dad hits someone qvq

"It doesn't matter, even if you are exposed, I won't drag you into the water." Arthur smiled. At this moment, he had a young man's high spirits, which is very rare in a king who has always been calm. , so rare that Matt had to choose to give in.

His Majesty looked really happy, so it's okay to sneak out....Matt really wanted His Majesty's happy expression to last longer, and it was best to keep this expression forever.

So if you get beaten, just get beaten, he, he, he, just suffer!

"Your Majesty, at least tell me where you want to go? In case something happens, I'll go to meet you." Matt helped Arthur straighten his cuffs worriedly, knelt down and patted the hound's head, and said, "Ray Rex, Rex, the safety of His Majesty is entrusted to you, you are a good dog, you must live up to it!"

Rex shook his head, arrogantly refusing his touch, and leaned closer to Arthur's feet, paws on his trouser legs, and made two "woofs" as if showing loyalty.

Matt: Goofy qvq

"I went to Kortner's store to have a look. He kept saying that the silk store was doing a good job, which piqued my curiosity." Arthur finished the job and changed Rex into a plain collar. Bring your own hat.

Matt thought that Arthur was just going out for a stroll, but he didn't expect to go to a merchant's shop on purpose. He felt that such a place was not worthy of His Majesty, and he didn't dare to persuade him too much, so he said nothing. Sir went out and mounted.

Arthur didn't realize the change in his mood, since he mentioned the shop, and he was surrounded by the loyal servant who gave his life for him in the previous reincarnation, so he couldn't help but say a few more words.

"Actually, I think it's good to be a businessman. It's much better than being trapped in the palace like me."

Matt's hand holding the rein tensed suddenly, and his veins burst out. He took a deep breath silently and warned himself not to lose his composure in front of His Majesty.

Does Your Majesty think it is unfortunate to be king?To His Majesty, is this palace like a huge cage?So in the eyes of His Majesty, is he also a part of this huge machine that restricts freedom?

Matt didn't dare to think about it, he held the rein tighter and tighter, as if trying to catch a beautiful bird that was about to fly.

Only this... Only this he can't allow!

Because His Majesty is the whole meaning of his existence.

The more he thought about it in the room, the more flustered he became. He stood up with red eyes and walked around the room a few times.Before he was about to be overwhelmed by great anger, he suddenly heard a familiar voice calling his name.

The speaker he guessed was too absurd, so he couldn't be sure of his own thoughts, so he hurried to the window and looked down——

The hat couldn't cover the fluffy blond hair, and the radiant color favored by God flowed out from the edge of the hat bit by bit. Those bright purple eyes, at this moment, lost the sharpness on the throne, like gemstones with rounded corners. Pure and soft.The king who had been in power for several years looked at him and smiled, and that smile made the whole world of Courtney slightly blurred.

He wanted to cry a little, but ordered himself to calm down quickly, and wiped the corners of his eyes indiscriminately. The merchant quickly went downstairs, and saw the king wandering in front of the silk aisle.

"Your Majesty..." As soon as the word was out of his mouth, he felt something was wrong. Arthur shook his head at him and made a silent gesture.Courtney reacted very quickly, and quickly changed his name to Arthur as "my lord".

"If you have the silk you want, just tell me directly. How can you condescend to come to such a place?" That adjective really made it hard for Kotney to say it. It was an insult to himself if he didn't say it. fact.

"What's wrong here?" Arthur was a little surprised, "What happened to the silk shop?"

Turning his gaze back to the shelf, Arthur's expression softened, "These shiny and soft things all came after a long journey, right?"

Courtney was stunned and couldn't speak for a while. The gentle and peaceful light in the king's eyes was something he had never seen before, but it made him... so excited.

"Yes, these silks are all transported from the east via the Silk Road." Courtney explained dryly. As soon as he said this, he immediately felt extremely frustrated.The businessman's eloquent quality suddenly left nothing in him, he opened his mouth to praise the preciousness of silk, and even went further to talk about the production process he knew, but at this moment, his brain went blank .

Arthur didn't pay attention to his abnormality, and after obtaining consent, he held up a piece of pure white silk. The silk material without any dyeing was so dazzlingly beautiful, and he said with a sigh: "Then, the experience of these silks is better I'm much richer."

"His Majesty……"

"I've heard enough of the bragging." Arthur put down the silk in his hand, and signaled Courtney to go upstairs, at least to find a place where there was no one so they could talk.

Courtney was interrupted by the compliment he was about to say, and couldn't think of what else to say, so he simply kept silent.He took Arthur to the room where he usually rested. The businessman's temperament was fond of luxury, and there were exquisite decorations everywhere, and any decoration would cost hundreds of gold coins.

Arthur didn't care about these decorations, he took the tea that Courtney personally brewed for him, the unusual bitter taste made him a little novel.

"Teas from the East cannot be brewed with milk or sugar." Courtney explained, and Arthur nodded in understanding. After taking a few sips, he continued the previous topic.

"If it weren't for the crown on my head, I would probably be a businessman." Arthur's words made Kurt jump slightly in his heart, and he subconsciously thought it was polite, and a timely grateful smile appeared on his face.

"You are really flattering me, I..."

"Do you yourself think businessmen are lowly? Like an inherent concept?" Arthur looked at Courtney with sharp eyes. He put down the teacup in his hand and made no sound when it touched the table.

"If you think the same way, and as a businessman, you also think that this profession is lowly, then lowliness will replace the fact and become the truth."

Courtney's hand shook slightly, and some tea spilled out, and some of it snaked down his wrist and flowed into his cuffs, where it was quickly assimilated into a cold temperature by the air.

"Perhaps during my administration, most people's inherent impression of businessmen cannot be reversed, but I will try my best to do so. Any profession is beautiful and has a need for its existence. I don't want to see any one belittled. "

Courtney didn't know what kind of expression he should make at this time. He could take it as the hypocrisy of the superior, but the king's eyes at this time prevented him from taking it as a deception.

In the bright light purple eyes, it seems that they are really full of longing for the distance.

He couldn't help but want to tell the king about all the things he saw and heard during his business trips - the people with strange totems tattooed on their bodies, the blizzard on the snowy field, and the grand sunset at the junction of the desert and the Gobi... and the businessman was in these magnificent pictures Among them, leading the horse or driving the camel team, full of exhaustion, but also vague yearning.

The more inconvenient the traffic and the rougher the road, the better their goods can be sold at a good price, and the better they can return to their hometowns, they will squander it wildly!

This is the joy of desperadoes!
