Chapter 235 The first meeting between Aikos and His Majesty the King
Wien was pulled by Mrs. Chely and climbed to the second floor of the attic with exquisite construction.
Turning around the corner of the stairs, there is a winding corridor with ornate decoration. The light sources arranged on both sides are very bright, and the gilded utensils can be seen everywhere are filled with brilliance.
"Since you two have important things to do, please forgive me for not being well-received." Mrs. Chery said, gently knocking on a door at the end of the corridor.
"Enter."
A kind voice came from inside.
Mrs. Chery pushed open the door sideways and made an inviting gesture to Ecos and Bulvo.
The moment the door was opened, Wien scanned the entire room.
It is a little larger than he had imagined before. From the decorations inside, it can be seen that it is specially used for guest reception purposes.
A middle-aged man with a quiet eyes sat behind the desk, his eyes stayed on Ecos for a second, and then stood up.
"This one is Miss Ecos?"
He greeted him in an emotional tone that he couldn't hear much, walked to the reception sofa closer to the door, and signaled the two guests to sit down.
When he saw this middle-aged man, Wien's eyebrows frowned deeply.
This person is George II, the supreme monarch of the Kingdom of St. Lornes.
However, that is not his real name.
It is the king who inherited the title of king after ascending the throne to commemorate his father George I.
Although Wien has not dealt with him directly in the past few years, he has seen the king several times in some large celebrations or banquets.
As a king, even if his power has not reached the level of doing whatever he wants, any turbulence that happens around him is still likely to trigger a political storm.
Wien couldn't help but contemplate what the private meeting between "Ecos" and His Majesty the King in this manor meant.
"This is the master I am truly loyal to - His Majesty the great king of the Kingdom of Saint-Lorns." The middleman Bulvo introduced.
He seemed to have no psychological pressure to speak out these stingy flatteries.
At this time, George II sat on his head with utmost care; Burwo deliberately walked around from the side and sat opposite him.
Seeing this, Vanne casually sat down on the nearest reception sofa at hand.
Mrs. Chery personally poured them three cups of tea and retreated quietly, leaving them room for discussion.
"Bulvo has recommended Miss Ecos to me many times, saying that you are a rare talent. Unfortunately, I have not had enough time to avoid those annoying ministers until recently." The king started chatting with Ecos as if he was having sex.
Wien had to stress again: "Just call me Ecos."
Damn! Should I leak the news that Ecos is a man?
The kind smile on Wang Guo paused, but he, with his experience, quickly covered up this little embarrassment.
"Okay." He asked as if he was talking casually: "By the way, Ecos, how old are you? It seems that you are only a little older than my twin sons."

Could this guy be making some shameful ideas?
He pretended to be like those powerful magicians with unique personalities, and he acted arrogantly, and ignored the king's words of being as kind as possible.
"Nothing to tell." His tone was cold.
In the reception room, the atmosphere was very stiff.
Seeing that the two of them couldn't continue chatting, Bulwo quickly came out to smooth things over.
"Your Excellency Ekos is not very good at handling personnel affairs, please do not blame him."
Although the king's magic power is not very powerful, he is nominally the co-lord of all the nobles of all the nobles in the entire kingdom. In theory, he can issue the king's order and mobilize all the nobles of the country to fight for him.
In terms of identity alone, his dignity is equivalent to the dignity of the kingdom and cannot be offended.
even--
From the moment he was crowned, His Majesty the King has become divine.
Of course, this is the theory preached by the church.
After receiving the coronation ceremony of the Archbishop, it means that the king was chosen by God and became His favored person, and thus obtained the protection of the king of kings.
With the steps given by Bulvo, George II went down and covered up the awkward chat with his hearty laughter.
After that, Wien also maintained an incompetent attitude and did not say anything. Most of the time, he just listened silently to the king and Bulvo talking.
Burwo reported his work plan over the past period to George II in detail in person.
With his clear steps and clear explanation, George II's interest was rekindled, and the slight unhesitation disappeared.
If a magician like Ekos can be brought under his command, it would be nothing if he was swept away some face.
"Very good, you did a good job," the king praised.
Therefore, with Bulvo's efforts turning the tide, this meeting roughly achieved good results.
The host and the host are all happy.
After thinking about what kind of career he could create with the assistance of many talents, the king seemed to have finally noticed the passage of time.
"It's dark in the night," he said.
Burwo understood it, stood up and said respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."
"It's getting late, and it's unknowingly disturbing your rest time. Then Lord Ekos and I will say goodbye first."
After the king tried to keep it for a few words, he let them leave.
"Chelly, I'll give you my two dear friends," he instructed.
After the group left the room for a while, he leaned against the window and observed the downstairs through the gap.
Although Ecos did not cooperate with his attitude of being a polite person, these were actually trivial matters.
As long as she is willing to work hard, she can do it.
Nowadays, it is not easy to find a great magician in Wangdu who has no preset camp.
Since the inheritance of magic knowledge is almost only carried out among the nobles, those human feelings and hatreds have accumulated from generation to generation with their power, and various aristocratic families naturally formed complex and complicated relationships, and even the king, he, was very troubled by this.
It would be fine if the nobles were fighting openly and secretly.
Even if the monarch and ministers test each other's bottom lines clearly, they will lose their awe.
This is also why he prefers to appoint officials of lower origins.
In order to go further in the career of the government, these people will be more informed and keen than those great nobles who were born to be noble.
And not... if there is any dissatisfaction, they will join forces with other great nobles to force him to bow his head with various old rules of the kingdom.
