"I probably understand why you said you can't..." Nero murmured.

"Ah, after all, master, he is too good to be good."

Aniya sighed: "And this has caused both the people and us to be full of love and gratitude to Master."

She paused, looking at Nero: "But there is an emotion on top of this..."

Nero looked at her too.

The two spoke in unison.

"Awe!"

......

The conference hall was extremely noisy just now, and then all the noise suddenly disappeared.

There was no sound in the hall, from Queen Boudica to all the officials and generals, everyone was frightened and silent, they stood up straight and carefully, even breathing carefully.

Everyone knew in their hearts that the man was back.

A few seconds later, the fat man looked towards Boudica, and after receiving Her Lady Queen's signal, the fat man scanned the audience, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly.

"Lord Neos is here!"

In less than half a second, a silver figure appeared at the door, casting a huge shadow onto the throne.

The figure entered the hall, and from the end of the hall to the head of the hall, needles could be heard falling.

As the footsteps approached, all the warriors and civil servants bowed and saluted the most powerful man in the city.

When he reached the throne, the man stood beside the queen, looking down at the crowd, expressionless.

The so-called stand out from the crowd, detached without a partner, that's probably the case.

In the end, he slowly stretched out his right hand, with the palm facing up, and lifted it slightly.

The fat man exhaled and shouted.

"rise!"

Chapter 122 Chapter 120

On the first day when Nios was away, I missed him, missed him, and missed him.

The first day Nios came back, hated him, hated him, hated him.

This is probably the consensus of the officials in the city.

When he was away, there was constant noise in the meeting hall every day.

The executive department headed by the Issini warriors, and the administrative department headed by the old nobles in the city, are fighting and arguing with each other.

In less than a year, they have split into factions to represent their own interests, and because of this, they often quarrel over a single issue.

If Boudica hadn't shouted "Silence" on the stage again, there might not be a few more people killed in the hall every day.

And although Ania came to power later, this situation eased, but she is not Neos after all, and she lacks experience in handling methods and crises. Therefore, compared with winter, the handling of daily government affairs and the issuance and implementation of government orders are sluggish. Quite a lot.

Or to put it more ruthlessly, from the moment everyone started working independently, the operation of the entire city has not been smooth.

As big as tax collection and distribution of land, as small as handling complaints...even the repair of the sewer has to be delayed for a month.

Gee!

This makes many people work harder than usual, but they just feel uncomfortable, but they can't tell.

It was obviously doing the same as before, but the whole city seemed to suddenly lack lubricating oil, and the operation became extremely stiff.

Crackling hard!

But now that Neos came back, while everyone was relieved, they became afraid again.

No matter who, even the queen, is really afraid of this master.

"Turner."

Neos' calm voice echoed in the hall.

"Here!" Turner straightened up instantly.

"A new batch of immigrants has arrived, so we can put fewer people in the city center and bring more people to the new city to have a look around, so as to ensure that there are people on duty at all times."

Nios said while turning the pages, "Tell them, the queen and I will go on inspections from time to time, so don't let me see anyone being lazy."

"understand!"

"Owen." Neos turned his head.

The fat man suddenly puffed up his belly: "Yes!"

"When new craftsmen enter the city, you are responsible for arranging their residences, taking the carpenters to the new logging land, and the stonemasons will give them the city walls and use the huts that were left before." Neos said.

"Got it!" The fat man grinned.

Neos nodded, then put away the booklet and wax board, and looked down at the audience: "So, do you have any questions?"

No one answered, there was silence, everyone lowered their heads and dared not look at him.

"If you don't have one, let's go." Neos finished speaking and turned to look at the queen.

Only then did Boudica come to his senses, and wiped the corner of his mouth: "Hey, is it over?"

Neos nodded.

"Oh, let's go then." The queen waved her hand.

......

The crowd dispersed, leaving the monarch and his ministers alone in the hall.

Boudica got up, shook her red hair and walked to the wine table, and looked back at Neos: "Drinking?"

Neos frowned: "Actually, when I came in, I wanted to ask when this was put up."

A few long tables were placed in the corner of the meeting hall at some point, with yellow and red fruits and pottery wine jars on the table.

"Since the day you left the city, today is the earliest morning meeting ends."

Boudica shrugged, picked up a clean glass, and poured himself a drink: "Most of the time, we would quarrel from morning to afternoon, but we still couldn't solve a problem."

She handed over a cold glass: "Later, considering the time was too long, Anya asked someone to put wine and food here."

"The situation of Yiyantang only occupies a very small part in history, Your Lady Queen." Neos played with the wine glass, but did not drink it.

Boudica took a sip of his wine and asked, "What was it like most of the time?"

"Just as you said."

Nios put down his wine glass: "Battle and procrastinate, stand in line to fight, get married, try to figure out what you want, stir up the mud, and finally achieve a check and balance between all parties, or make a fortune in silence."

"Ah, these words make me sick..."

Boudica rubbed the bridge of his nose: "I don't know how those people in Rome endured this."

Neos raised his eyebrows: "This is called politics, Your Lady Queen."

"Fortunately, Anya grew up very quickly."

Boudica smiled in relief: "In just a few months, she has done a better job than anyone here."

After finishing speaking, she looked towards the position of the throne.

Neos followed suit.

"Whether those warriors or those nobles basically listen to her."

Boudica hesitated for a moment, with a troubled expression: "Even..."

"Even what?"

"Some people even said that I should abdicate and she should be queen."

Boudica sighed: "So, this is why you have been out of the city for the past few months, let Anya stand up and take the lead."

Seeing this, Neos narrowed his eyes and put away his smile.

"Don't be afraid, I am not a person who is greedy for power, and I don't think there is any power in being the queen."

Boudica pointed to the throne: "I sit here every day, either watching what you say or what Ania says, and I have to sign for you when it's over. I don't have any freedom..."

"You just don't have the training and experience to handle government affairs," Nios said.

"So I get it. In fact, I'm not the one you're looking at, right." Boudica said suddenly.

"Huh?" Neos froze for a moment, looking at her.

"The real queen candidate in your heart is Anya, right?"

Boudica smiled and sighed, a little helpless: "This is why you always delay my policy and expire me in every way;

And that's why you accepted her as an apprentice and taught her the principles of governing the country.

What a sword of princes and sword of kings..."

Neos watched her, silent.

"Of course, I also know what level I am. After all, what you men are talking about about war and politics, I don't understand at all."

Boudica smiled: "When the rebellion started, I just wanted to take revenge and my head was hot. I didn't think about what to do afterwards."

"This is also your advantage, and this is why so many people are willing to follow you." Nios said.

"No, actually from the beginning, I just wanted to be a simple wife or mother and protect that family." Boudica shook his head, smiling like a puppy, silly and dumbfounded

"Queen...you have done a good job." Nios bowed his head.

"Yes, do you really think so?"

Neos was silent for a few seconds: "At least, Anya is still smiling, isn't she?"
