"Master Shilu, is it necessary to put so much effort into an ordinary Leopard country soldier?"
The lion soldier in uniform brought the wine brought from the palace. He glanced at the man who did not forget to read the documents even in the tavern, smelled the aroma of the wine, and said regretfully, "Give this wine to him. It's too wasteful to drink!"
None of these carnivores does not love wine, and this wine is brewed by professional winemakers in the Golden Lion King's Palace. It is not only precious and delicious, but also not everyone can drink it. It's enough to make alcoholics unbearable. Shilu is accustomed to using alcohol to open up conversations. In his opinion, no one can resist the charm of alcohol. As long as a stranger has a drink, the relationship will inevitably get closer.
What's more, there are some things that are more suitable to say only when you are drunk.
"The wine is for drinking, what's the point of wasting it?" Shilu didn't care that his subordinates were angry for a mere barrel of wine.
In the end, people who will be controlled by alcohol are only like this. No matter how high-level people are, they will put down their defenses because of alcohol and be taken advantage of. Those who learn to use foreign objects are truly powerful.
Carnivores are addicted to alcohol, especially large carnivores like them. What Shilu has to do is to instill some information to the man sent by the Leopard Kingdom to negotiate with the two sides through the friendship of drinking.
What he needs is that the other party has a certain amount of trust in him. This trust does not need to be too much but not too little. At least he must ensure that the other party will convey his words to the Leopard Country and persuade the Leopard Country to cooperate with him. .
It's just that before that, he still had the identity of the eldest brother of the current king of the Golden Lion Kingdom. Whatever he said, he had to put a question mark on his identity. In order to increase his credibility, he had to act like he was. .
Kung Fu Shilu, who ordered his subordinates to let the people from the Leopard Country come to get wine after calculating the time, has already poured himself a lot of wine. Even if he is good at drinking, his brain will inevitably be a little drowsy under the immersion of a lot of alcohol.
When he saw the people who were waiting, he sent back the others around him.
"Come, come have a drink with me..." He waved at the man whose eyes fell on him, and raised the wine glass at the same time.
As soon as Shi Lu, who was already half drunk, saw a familiar person, he immediately called him to drink with him. His tough and unreasonable attitude was very different from his usual gentle appearance.
Although he still sat down in order to find out what the other party was thinking, but faced with the wine handed in front of him, Silent Yan still didn't even think about touching it.
"No." Silent Yan pushed away the wine that had been placed in front of him, looked at the redness on Shi Lu's face due to the drunkenness, thought for a while and then asked, "Do I need to call someone to take you back?"
The other party obviously wants to pull himself to drink. Whether in this world or the previous world, people always like to drink and talk about things. Silent Yan has already understood that he can't drink, but for the other party to continue to develop the topic, he Still had to take advantage of the situation to find a conversation.
Silent Yan knew what physique he was, but Shi Lu in front of him didn't know.
Originally, his head was a little heavy, but when he heard his refusal, Shi Lu became more sober. If it wasn't for the aroma of the wine around him, he would almost doubt whether there was something wrong with the wine.
It was obviously impossible for him to let Silent Yan call someone to take him back, so he immediately said in a daze: "No need! There is no work today..."
"...What do you like to drink? I'll order someone to get it for you." No matter what a drunk person says, it's a normal person, so it's not surprising that compared to the past, it seems more entangled at this time.
Ordinary people should do it at this time. If their constitution allows Silent Yan, it doesn't matter. In this case, he will play a role with the other party.
So he said bluntly: "I don't drink."
The man with the long lion's tail was still a little confused at first, but now it's the whole meal, looking at him with obvious surprise, maybe the alcohol has some influence, so he almost blurted out: "You really are Weird."
Are there people who don't drink
Shilu was amazed in his heart, but the seemingly offensive words seemed to be more intimate under the premise of being polite and polite in the past, and there was a sense of relaxation that seemed to be revealed when he was drunk.
"Since you don't drink, let's chat with me for a while."
Shi Lu was sure that Silent Yan would not refuse. Sure enough, after hesitating for a moment, Silent Yan sighed and said, "What do you want to talk about?"
"You can talk about anything, such as what do you think of this country? Are you used to living in it? How does it compare to Liebao Country?" Shilu shook the wine in his hand, "To be honest, I haven't seen this country like this for a long time. It's so peaceful."
He seemed to ask a lot of questions at once, but the bottom line was still a question, omitting a series of foreshadowing that might come next, Silent Yan frowned and asked a little bluntly: "Is it because of your king? ?"
Although Shilu dismissed the surrounding subordinates partly because he hoped that the other party would not have to worry about others around him and could express his thoughts more confidently, but it would be too straightforward to talk about the king of the Golden Lion Kingdom like this. Too bold.
"How dare you say it..." Shilu looked a little surprised. After taking a sip of wine, he didn't know whether to confirm his answer, or he wanted to avoid talking about it and turned to another matter." By the way, your rank is the fourth rank?"
"Yeah." Silent Yan thought that he was probably referring to what happened when he was attacked by a strange beast that day, and that day he used the fourth-order qi in front of him.
After getting an affirmative answer, the usually mild-mannered man looked a little frustrated: "I thought... shouldn't you high-level guys be more arrogant?"
Seeing that Si Siyan didn't seem to understand, he continued with alcohol: "Because you can't work hard at the same level, right? No matter how hard you try, you can't compare to some unique guys."
Shi Lu obviously has a very strong obsession with the theory of natural talent. After hearing him say a lot about "people with talent can naturally become stronger without doing anything, people without talent are just a foil even if they work hard". After saying such words, Silent Yan said, "I remember that the king of the Golden Lion Kingdom is a rare fifth-order powerhouse?"
Hearing this, Shi Lu was obviously stagnant: "Ah... Yes, Qin Jie is a rare genius."
I don't know if it's because he's acting too well or if he really doesn't feel bad about Qin Jie. Even under the influence of alcohol, he doesn't have any disgust or malice on his face except a little melancholy.
Silent Yan seemed a little hesitant, he was silent for a while and said, "But if you have talent again... I'm sorry, I... "
Realizing that what he said might have gone a bit too far, he stopped the conversation in time, but Shi Lu patted him on the back at this moment, and said with a drink: "It's okay! Anyway, that guy is not here, and there is no other here. Man, you should speak ill of that guy for me."
"Although I usually don't like his manners, it is undeniable that his strength is indeed strong, and being a younger brother will really make people angry." He drank another drink in a fit of anger.
However, Silent Yan found that Shi Lu still didn't say anything against the king, and even a lot of those were praising him just now.
In this case...
"I don't think that being strong does not mean that you can govern a country well." Silent Yan seemed to be unable to hold back after all, "It can be seen from the situation of the Golden Lion Kingdom that it can be stronger but because of infighting again and again. It was a waste of my strength."
These words that would be a big crime if heard by the third person were not vague in silence, because he was sure that Shilu would not convict him, and Shilu really did not take it to heart, he shook his head and retorted: "But the powerful Only strength can resist the invasion of the outside world, right? The Golden Lion Kingdom has made many enemies."
"Isn't it alright as long as there are no enemies?" Silent said, "It is good for everyone to reach friendly relations with various countries and end the tense relationship. Now is not the era of war."
Shi Lugang wanted to say something, and Silent Yan continued: "From this point of view, I think you are more suitable to be the ruler of the Golden Lion Kingdom."
He calmly looked at the drunk but sensible man in front of him, and analyzed seriously: "In an era without war, peace is a major trend, and reducing casualties is the most basic thing. Only by reaching an agreement with various countries can we ensure smooth development and rule by force. It’s not desirable and it won’t last long.”
"The faster the throne is replaced, the more people will be unable to live in peace, and more people want a peaceful life than killing. If this problem is not solved, then the throne will be overthrown sooner or later." Coincidentally, the golden lion The country is also a country where force is paramount. The one who sits on the throne is the strongest. If the people want to overthrow the throne, there will be countless casualties. As a result, the situation of the Golden Lion Kingdom will be worse than it is now.
After speaking, Silent Yan looked at the man who was obviously in a daze, and said, "You are more suitable to lead the Golden Lion Kingdom than the current king."
"I'm more suitable than him?" Shi Lu didn't expect that he would hear such a sentence from Silent Yan's mouth, so he couldn't help laughing, "You haven't seen Qin Jie, so maybe it's not clear, he is much stronger than you think. …”
"I'm here to prove his incompetence, right?" Silent Yan said slightly coldly, "A person's strength does not mean that he can become a qualified king, and you know the residents of the Golden Lion Country better than him. Isn't it? You've put in all your effort and hard work, so how can you be inferior to him?"
The words of Silent Words fell on his vital points, as if hitting his heart. Every sentence was what he wanted to hear the most, but no one had ever said it to him. The articulate and sociable Shilu opened his mouth. He didn't speak for a while.
He was right, wouldn't he prove Qin Jie's incompetence here? Otherwise, how would the Golden Lion Kingdom need to accept the help of foreigners, and how would it allow itself to gain an opportunity
After all, Qin Jie is not as good as him.
What about the fifth-order powerhouse, it is not that they will be defeated by the mere third-order own men.
Thinking of this, Shi Lu's mood was a little more cheerful, and the atmosphere seemed to be almost infected, so he put the main topic up.
He first showed some hesitation, and then slowly said: "There is something... Maybe it's not suitable for me, but I can't just leave it alone..."
"What's the matter?" Silent asked.
Shi Lu lowered his eyes and said softly, "The Golden Lion is a traitor."
