Succubus' Manor

This time when Kleist and the others came back, Chi Yan personally led all the nobles and officials to greet them at the city gate. The city gate opened, and Chi Yan stood at the forefront. He looked in Kleist's direction with extremely gentle eyes.

When he was about to arrive, Kleist got off his horse, and his movements were very chic. He threw the reins to Achill who was standing beside him, and strode towards Chi Yan.

When the distance between the two was only three meters, Kleist saluted Chi Yan.

Kneeling is not a mandatory requirement at this time, you can kneel if you want, and no one will stop you, but generally speaking, courtiers and nobles just bow to the king as a gesture, not too much, as long as they can show respect.

Even in ancient China, kneeling was not popular in every dynasty.

In some dynasties, farmers did not need to kneel when they met officials except the king.

In some dynasties, when the courtiers finished kneeling and saluting, the king had to return the salute.

Chi Yan didn't think kneeling was a good thing.

Rather than showing respect, it is more like letting the kneeling person understand their identity more clearly.

"Thank you." Chi Yan walked up to Kleist.

Kleist raised his head, looked at Chi Yan, and said with a smile, "It's okay."

Chi Yan: "How many people were captured?"

Kleist: "Thirty thousand."

Chi Yan: "The others are dead?"

Kleist nodded: "I will send someone to clean up the battlefield."

Chi Yan nodded.

Cleaning the battlefield is a good habit.

Chi Yan smiled and said, "Go back, I prepared a celebration banquet for you."

This celebration banquet was made by people who can cook together in the whole city, and it happened that they could also get a reward.

The dishes are also very simple, but the portion is big, everyone can eat enough, and there is meat floss, everyone can get a small piece of cake after the meal.

Chi Yan took Kleist's hand, and led him to turn around and walk towards the palace.

A group of nobles and ministers looked at the two holding hands, their eyes almost fell out.

It's not that the king is not a good man, but it's all absurd in private... holding the hand of his lover, walking on the street so openly, some old-fashioned people almost fainted.

But some people think that the current king, after all, came from a small place and doesn't understand etiquette.

It was the time when they were needed to teach, and the summary was - Chi Yan needed a teacher, or many teachers, and the teacher had to be them.

After returning to the palace, Chi Yan asked the nobles and ministers to go back to their homes.

When Ryan came out to invite people to leave, the nobles and ministers were dumbfounded.

"Tell us to go back?" A nobleman pointed to his nose, his face full of disbelief.

Ryan said seriously: "Otherwise? Do you still want to invite you back?"

The nobles looked at each other, waiting for someone to make a fuss.

However, the nobles are not willing to be this early bird - they really want to test the new king, but they never thought of trying it themselves, it is better to have other nobles try.

Seeing that they would not leave, Ryan asked the guards to bombard them.

The ministers also want to stay. They think they are Chi Yan's people. Don't they have credit for Chi Yan becoming the king?What's more, Chi Yan also promised to give them titles and territories.

"Are we leaving too?" the minister asked Ryan.

Ryan nodded: "Can you go? If you don't go, I will ask the guards to ask you to go."

The ministers were dumb and ate Coptis chinensis, and obediently withdrew.

Ever since Chi Yan ascended the throne, he hasn't summoned them, as if they had all been forgotten.

The returned soldiers took off their armor and sat on the benches in the open air to eat. The weather was good today and there was no snow. After the clearing was cleared, tables, chairs and benches were placed. They sat on the benches and waited for the food to be served.

Because it was a running water mat, more soldiers didn't catch up with this trip, so they leaned over with shameless faces, ready to share food from their comrades.

The kitchen is also open-air. It is said to be a kitchen, but it is actually a shed and a few pots.

The pot was boiling mush, and there was meat floss in it, not many beans, more wheat and kato cake pieces.

In addition to the main food, there are some dishes, each table has a smoked duck.

Silla also sat at the table, she was a little depressed, those ugly people were too powerful, she could count the enemies she killed on one hand, it seems that she will not be promoted this time.

"You are amazing." The ugly man who asked her to borrow a handkerchief before gave her a thumbs up.

Silla brushed her hair and said proudly, "If you didn't go up too fast, I could kill more enemies."

Sira looked at each other: "What's your name?"

The ugly man grinned and said, "My name is Stone."

Sira's expression was a bit strange: "Stone?"

Shitou nodded: "I like Shitou."

Sila's expression softened a lot: "You were also a slave before?"

Only slaves, who have no names, name themselves with these things.

Shitou scratched his head: "That's right."

Although he didn't know if it counted, but if he said no, the other party would definitely not be so friendly to him.

He's a smart rock.

After the food was served, Silas and Shitou stopped talking, and everyone at the table started to gobble it up without looking up.

Having just finished the battle and exhausted a lot of physical strength, Silas felt that he could light a cow.

As a result, she was full after eating for five nights.

Shi Shi stared at her dumbfounded.

Sila said confidently: "I don't have enough energy to eat so much, you should eat more, you look thinner."

Stone touched his arm: "I'm not thin."

He is indeed not thin, at most he has no flesh on his face.

Sila said with disgust, "I can break your leg with a little force."

Stone:"……"

He wanted to say that he didn't believe it and didn't dare to say it.

I am afraid that the other party will break his legs in order to prove that he can do it.

Du Da sat at another table, and she was talking to Nina: "Your brother is still in the city? Why don't you let him come to the Holy City?"

Nina said as she ate, "He said he was going to clean up the things at home, and he would sell what he couldn't take away."

Nena is the one who eats in the first round among the medical soldiers. The others have to take care of the wounded soldiers.

Nina is very satisfied with her life now. She likes the military camp. Everything is well-regulated here. At the beginning, she was afraid that the men would hurt her. Later, she found out that the military camp is very strict.

Men often train, and when they train, they use up all their energy.

And a large part of their desires are solved by each other.

Nina's parents ate at another table.

Except for Nina's elder brother, the whole family ate food in the military camp, and they can still save their monthly military pay. They will be able to use the money to buy a house and start a business when they are no longer in the military camp.

Her father also plans to save a little more, so he can buy a tricycle from the army in the future, and use it to pull goods or carry people in the future, and he will definitely earn a lot.

Just when Nina was about to leave the table, she heard soldiers laughing in front of her.

There were also screams of children, she was startled, afraid of these children who were soldiers bullying civilians, she ran over to look at it.

After she ran over, she realized that a pair of siblings had been thrown up by a group of soldiers.

The two children were foolish and bold, screaming and laughing, and the soldier didn't leave them for long, before he put them down and passed his own bowl for the two children to eat.

"I like to eat this!" My sister picked up the sticky meat floss with her hands, and stuffed it into her mouth, chewing it deliciously.

The younger brother also grabbed the meat floss with the older sister to eat, and they didn't waste the rest. The siblings took a mouthful and ate up a bowl of mush.

Children have small stomachs, and two children will be full after eating a large bowl.

It was their mother, standing not far away, stomping her feet anxiously.

After eating, the siblings didn't go back. They pestered the soldiers and asked what it was like to fight.

"War, that is, we face the enemy face to face, and then we fight them, and they fight us."

"Anyway, it depends on who has the best weapons and who has the most strength."

The two children who had never seen the world were taken aback by the soldiers' simple descriptions.

When the elder sister clenched her fist: "I will also be a soldier in the future!"

The soldiers laughed: "It's not easy for girls to be soldiers, just look at them."

The soldier pointed to it, and the table he pointed to was full of female dwarves.

"Just like them, with arms thicker than our thighs."

The elder sister couldn't close her mouth in surprise. She looked at the arms of the female dwarves, and then at her own thin arms, and burst into tears unexpectedly, hiccupping and saying, "I, I want such thick arms too."

The female dwarves sat in their seats and shouted: "Not only are our arms thicker than your thighs, but we can blow your heads off with one punch, believe it or not?"

The male soldiers laughed and said, "Joe said it, not us. Go and blow his head off."

Joe said quickly, "I was kidding the kid!"

The female dwarves shouted to the girl: "Don't listen to them, it's not like anyone has thicker arms than anyone else in the battlefield."

Then the male soldiers said to the little girl: "Eat well, grow up well, come to the barracks if you want to grow up, as long as you can keep up with the training, you can also serve as a soldier."

The little girl wiped away her tears: "I will definitely come!"

The little boy followed his sister and said, "I'm coming too!"

The siblings not only had a good time, but also took a piece of katuo cake, thanked the soldiers, and left hand in hand.

Seeing them walking through the street, their mother hurried over to hold the two children in her arms. She scolded in a low voice, "Why are you running around?! They are all soldiers over there!"

The two siblings were not afraid at all, but said to their mother, "Mom, we will also be soldiers in the future."

Mother: "...You are a girl, what kind of soldier are you? That's what men do."

The elder sister was not convinced: "There are also women serving as soldiers over there!"

Mother said with a straight face: "Are they women? They are dwarves! Dwarves are slaves! They can only do the same jobs as men. Good women don't do those things."

She said to her daughter seriously: "Women should work at home."

"Instead of going to the battlefield like a man, or moving goods like a man."

"Only slave women do men's work, understand?"
