The next two weeks will be an extremely boring period of recuperation for Aesop.

Joseph said to let Aesop take care of his illness and don't bother to worry about it, so he handed over all the work of the palace to the secretary, and even handled important affairs by himself. In short, he just didn't let Aesop handle it.Aesop seriously expressed to Joseph that he was fine and willing to continue working, but Joseph ruthlessly rejected him: "Stop working if you are not feeling well, do you want to continue working when you have our child? "

Aesop didn't have the eloquence to confront Joseph, so he could only resign himself to his fate and lie obediently on the bed to recover from his injuries. Occasionally, when he was bored, he leaned on the edge of the bed and read a book.Joseph still came often, but this noble king really did what he said. Although he was affectionate every time he came, he was determined not to make out with Aesop.This made the boring days even more difficult, and Aesop was embarrassed to ask directly, so he had to endure it silently, letting his alpha stay by his side with a disturbing pheromone smell, He also looked calm.

They only did it once in two weeks, and that was on the first day of Aesop's rut.After a week of bed rest, Aesop began to be in estrus. He felt very uncomfortable without inhibitors that day, and his wet and red eyes stared eagerly at Joseph, like a poor little white rabbit.In the end, Joseph couldn't resist such Aesop, so he had to promise him to do it once, just do it once.

Now that Aesop thinks about that day, he still thinks it was a great experience.The anxiety that had been without intimacy for a week was all made up for by that one time. Joseph did it extremely tenderly at that time. He carefully avoided Aesop's wounds, held Aesop in his arms, and relied on his own skills to make Aesop do it. I was so happy that I almost cried.Afterwards, Joseph helped Aesop clean up, put on his pajamas, and slept in the same bed with Aesop for the night, using his own alpha pheromone to soothe Aesop's anxious state during estrus.So much so that when Aesop woke up the next day, he was refreshed. When Joseph sat by his bed in a well-dressed manner and told him that he was going to work, Aesop was still a little bit reluctant.

This period of time is like this, plain but beautiful, sometimes Aesop has the illusion that they are no different from ordinary couples.This made Aesop wonder: did things really pass like this?Will they be able to live a normal and regular life in the future, Joseph handles state affairs, he handles palace affairs, and the two of them date or share the same bed during their rest time?

Then he soon realized that everything was not that simple.

After two weeks, the wound on Aesop's waist has basically healed.After all, he was young and in good physical condition. With the careful recuperation and good rest during this period, he recovered quickly—although there was still a mark on the wound, which was a slanting scar, and the doctor was not sure how it ended. Can it be completely eliminated.

The day the doctor told Aesop that he could get out of bed and move around freely, Joseph specially suggested that the two of them leave the palace and go to Paris for a date to celebrate.Aesop readily agreed, and he obediently stayed in bed for a full two weeks after the injury, feeling like his bones were about to fall apart.So after the two packed up, they embarked on a day trip to Paris together.

This time Joseph did not take Aesop to see the scenery, but randomly found an open-air cafe near the Seine River and sat down.The season is approaching summer, the weather is getting hotter, and huge parasols are set up on the seats of the open-air cafe.Aesop sat on the seat, and glanced at the couples of young men and women drinking coffee and chatting at the table beside him, and at the flower shop with elegant and romantic decoration not far away, and felt that all this was also very novel.

Joseph ordered coffee for the two, and the coffee was served shortly after.After serving it, Aesop stared at the milk foam and latte art on the top of the coffee liquid in a daze. Joseph understood it and asked him with a smile, "Do you usually drink more black tea?"

"Yeah." Aesop nodded, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.He didn't know what kind of coffee this cup of coffee belonged to. He only felt the aroma of coffee beans penetrated into his nostrils along with the sweet aroma of chocolate and sweetened milk.Unexpectedly delicious taste.Aesop actually likes sweets, and he likes the taste that is more sweet than bitter.

At this time, they were sitting by the river, with the gentle breeze blowing past them from time to time, and the noisy chatting and laughing of French men and women rang in their ears.After taking a sip, Aesop paused and took another sip.During this process, Joseph kept watching him, with a gentle smile in his sky blue eyes.

After Aesop took a sip and put down his glass, Joseph asked, "Is it good?"

"Hmm...it's surprisingly delicious."

"That's right, I noticed that you seem to have a sweet tooth in general, so I ordered you the sweetest coffee. In this way, France may be very suitable for you, because there are many great desserts to eat."

"Won't you get fat..." Aesop couldn't help complaining in a low voice.

"Before you get fat, you can eat as much as you want. Anyway, I won't dislike you if you get a little fat, but it's bad if you get too fat. I won't be able to hold you in bed."

Aesop: "..." This is too real.

There seemed to be a moment of silence between the two, but Joseph changed the topic calmly: "Do you like this place? I remember that I went to London more than ten years ago, and there was no such open-air cafe there. Of course, you can't do it in London either. Seeing such a scene."

He stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the river.Aesop looked over his fingers and saw a man and a woman standing by the river and kissing intimately. The woman was holding a bouquet of bright roses in her hand, which must have been given to her by the man.Joseph's voice sounded in his ears: "This country is really romantic. No matter where you are, you may see such intimate scenes, and the citizens have long been accustomed to it. So now, even if I come up to kiss you, The people next to us will not look at us too much."

Joseph's hypothesis frightened the strict and polite Englishman Aesop, who quickly shook his head vigorously.Facing Aesop's refusal, Joseph was noncommittal, but smiled ambiguously.He stretched out his hand to Aesop's face, and wiped the corner of the other's mouth stained with milk froth with his fingertips: "The coffee is on the edge of his mouth, it's not elegant, my dear." Opening the desktop of the two, he approached Aesop's ear intimately, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "So, in this messy place, talking about confidential content may be more important than talking in the palace. Safety."

Aesop opened his eyes wide. After two seconds, he finally recovered his usual expression and nodded vigorously.In just a moment, his expression has changed from the calm and relaxed look just now to the serious and calm that is unique to talking about serious business.Joseph saw the change in his eyes, and nodded with satisfaction: "What I want to tell you is about dealing with the council."

"What about dealing with the parliament? And what's next?"

"Of course there is a follow-up. I'll grab a British insider, start a panic, and let the parliament examine itself. Is that necessary?" Joseph raised his eyebrows, "Aesop, you have to remember that every action a politician makes There are backhands—unless the action is the coup itself."

"Then... how do you plan to deal with it next?"

"That's right. Listen to me. At present, I have replaced the confidential member files of the parliament with some false documents. Next, the parliament will eliminate some hidden members, and some of them are in our plan. Inside—yes, it’s the ones that have been replaced. Then, what I want you to do is: After the parliament is cleaned up, find ways to insert our people into these positions and keep in touch. When the time comes, I An order to launch a coup will be issued, and at that time, this order will be conveyed by you."

Joseph explained the ins and outs of the coup planning in a few words. Even though he spoke slowly, it took Aesop a while to digest what he said.At the moment when he finally sorted it out, Aesop realized how important the task Joseph put on him was.He shook his head quickly: "No, so my position is almost the key to this coup. But I am too young, and I don't know how to put our people in. If I miss, the consequences will be too serious. I can't afford it."

"No, listen to me." Joseph stretched out his hand to hold Aesop's shoulder, looked into his eyes and said sincerely, "Aesop, what I need is not a person with great ability, but a completely reliable person." Integrator of information. I will give you the list of our people. The method of inserting people into the parliament is very simple. It is nothing more than relying on money, ability and relationship. I will arrange others to do these small things for you, but they will ask you Report. You don’t have to worry when you issue an order, I will teach you how to do it. All in all, you just need to coordinate the information well, and before the final battle begins, everything has a fault tolerance rate. Understand?”

Only then did Aesop feel a little relieved.He nodded: "Understood, I can do it. But why me?"

Joseph sighed, and he shook his head: "Aesop, you may not understand that what people in politics worry about is not the enemy, but the betrayal of their comrades on the same front; because the former is in the open, the latter is in the dark, and they are caught off guard. There is Sometimes, for the sake of insurance, we even have to give up comrades who may have problems. Therefore, I need the most reliable comrade in arms, and I believe this person can be you. Do you fully understand now?"

Aesop moved his lips, he wanted to say something, but couldn't speak.At this moment, he couldn't describe the surprise in his heart: So Joseph already trusted him to this extent?Judging from the position he assigned to himself, he is probably the person he trusts most in the world now...

Aesop suddenly felt his eyes a little sore.He pursed his lips, suppressed the sudden heat in his eyes, and nodded vigorously: "Well, I understand. I will do well."

He told himself silently in his heart that he wanted to do his best.He couldn't live up to the love between them, and he couldn't let down Joseph's devotion to him.If Joseph wanted to move forward, he would chase after him and keep up with him.

He wanted to be the best match for Joseph.
