After drinking for three rounds, the two of them were already very drunk. The posture in the sitting position is also swaying.

At this time, Bandak lost his usual restraint, and began to talk to Derrick: how he admired him.

Derrick leaned back in his chair and listened quietly to Bundak's words.

In the end, Bundak's mouth was dry, and Derrick asked someone to bring a pot of tea. He opened his mouth and said, "Let's drink some water first."

"No, as long as there is wine." Bundak shook his head.

"Haven't you had enough?" Derrick still removed the wine from Bundak's glass and filled it with tea: "People who have to leave early tomorrow morning can't stand a hangover."

"What the hell, if you drink with me, I have to drink to my heart's content." Bandak waved his hand and said, "If you want to stay here forever, the chances of us getting together to drink will not change. Is it missing?"

"Hey," Derrick sighed alone, and said to Bundak with a smile: "Well, in the future, whenever you want me to go back to Dherim to drink with you, I'll go back right away."

"You..." Bandak's eye sockets have become foggy at this time: "I didn't know before that your character would be so stubborn. Why didn't you listen to me after telling you so many times? I Now that I think about it, I can see it: His Majesty revealed to me the decision he will make this time, just to let me test your determination. The current result may surprise even him."

After drinking too much wine, Bundak's tongue became numb, and the logic of his speech began to become confused. But Derrick still heard the meaning of these words. Pursing his lips, he raised his hand and handed the teacup to Bundak's hand.

"Do you think it will be easy to get down from this position? The things you take for granted will be lost one after another. Why do you have to let yourself suffer those losses?" Bandak took the teacup, moved his lips, thought of something, something He put the wine glass on the table with a "boom!", and continued talking to Derrick.

"I've thought about all of this." Derrick whispered.

"I don't know how disappointed your subordinates will be when they know you will make such a choice." Bandak quickly drank a cup of tea, ready to get up and leave. But when he stood up, he didn't stand firmly, and his figure seemed to be crumbling.

Derrick hurried forward to support him, and told the soldiers beside him, "Send General Bundak back to Jinglou."

"Yes." The soldier rushed over, put Bundak's hand on his shoulder, and dragged half of his body.

"Also remember to deliver the hangover soup prepared by the back kitchen to the soldiers in Jinglou." Looking at Bundak's sluggish back, Derrick continued to order the soldiers beside him.

"yes!"

In the early morning of the second day, Bandak was woken up by the soldiers of the escort. Because I not only took a bath before going to bed last night, but also drank hangover soup and so on, the symptoms of headache were not as strong as I imagined.

"Commander Bandak, we are about to go." Seeing that Bandak was awake, the soldiers retreated to the door and reported to him.

"Okay." Bandak rubbed his temples and nodded.

Because of going out all year round, the procedures of washing up in the morning are already comfortable for Bundak. Showed up in the lobby earlier than anyone else.

When he met Derrick who was about to go upstairs, Derrick looked at Bandak in surprise and asked, "You are so early?"

"The one who was woken up moved faster than them, so I'll wait here first." Bandak replied while nibbling on his breakfast.

"I see." Derrick didn't go up the stairs, but turned around and went to the kitchen to bring out two cups of hot milk, and sat down opposite Bandak: "Drink some hot milk."

Banda Ke took a glass of milk and drank it: "Not bad, it's comparable to the fresh milk in the military camp."

"I found someone to order from Cumberland." Derrick also took a sip and said.

"What an idea." Bandak praised.

"Why don't you pretend to take some away?" Derrick suggested.

"No." Bandak shook his head with a smile and said, "If His Majesty finds out about this, he will kill me."

"Hehe." Derrick also took this as a joke and ignored the past.

The two chatted one after another, and there were more and more soldiers sitting around eating breakfast together.

"You don't have to go to the construction site to supervise the work today?" Bundak asked Derrick after wiping the table in front of him.

"Send someone under my command to watch for me." Derrick replied, "I'll rush over there after I send you out of the city gate."

"Hmm." Bundak nodded, stood up, and called the soldiers to gather quickly.

"Let them eat slowly." Derrick said with a smile.

"If you eat more, you may not even be able to walk." Bandak shook his head with a smile and said, "What's more, I'm really sorry to have you here with us."

"Hehe." Derrick smiled lightly.

After a while, the soldiers of the escort team stood in front of the lobby door.

"You guys, go and bring over the camels in the backyard." Bandak ordered to the soldiers in the front row.

After everyone packed their bags, they set off towards the city gate.

Walking to the gate of the city, Bandak bid farewell to Derrick: "Then see you after the Chinese New Year."

"Okay." Derrick waved at him.

Without saying anything else, Bandak led his soldiers and set off towards the snow outside the city.

"Your Majesty!" A soldier rushed into the Senate Hall and shouted loudly.

"What's wrong?" Kant put down the document in his hand and looked up.

"Commander Bandak returned to Dherim with his escort, and is now at the gate of the city." Soldiers reported.

"Oh. I see, you step back." Kant nodded, and continued to read the text in his hand.

Seeing Kant's calmness, the soldier thought he was really angry with Commander Bundak, so he hesitated and said, "Need...call Commander Bundak?"

"No," said Kant, "he will come himself."

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and then responded: "The subordinate resigns."

Kant was the only one left in the Senate Hall again. After hearing the sound of footsteps fading away, Kant glanced at the incense stick at the corner of the table. Silently counting the time in my heart.

After a while, Kant was sitting in the hall, and he heard Bandak's laughter from a long distance away.

When Bundak stepped into the hall to salute, Kant put the document in his hand aside and said, "Go out of the city without telling me, how dare you laugh?"

"Uh," Bandak knelt down and said with embarrassment, "it's my fault that you didn't report to Your Highness."
