Chapter 20: Defeat Genius with Genius(2/2)
"Good morning, Ilsa." Su Cheng smiled and waved to Ilsa and said hello.
Ilsa, who was sitting at the table reading, immediately put down the book in her hand and said, "Teacher Cheng, you are here."
"Have you reviewed the content of the last class carefully?" Su Cheng said as he sat in front of Ilsa.
Ilsa said angrily:
"Of course I have reviewed carefully. Teacher Cheng, you seem to be in a good mood today. Did anything good happen?"
"Nothing good happened. The only good thing is that I can see Ilsa again today and teach Ilsa."
"Teacher, you must be very popular among girls because you are so good at talking."
At this time, Su Cheng suddenly realized that Ilsa's complexion was not very good.
"What's wrong? Ilsa, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, it's not that I'm not feeling well." Ilsa said with a little worry on her face, "Didn't a peasant rebellion break out in the Earl of York a month and a half ago? Grandpa sent troops to quell it in time, but this peasant rebel army unexpectedly
The ground can fight, and the three expeditions dispatched have been defeated. Now a month and a half has passed, and the rebellion has not yet been put down. The rebel army has gradually grown, from a few hundred people to an army of 30,000.
Well, grandpa has been worried about this matter in the past few days. I heard from the maid sister that grandpa hasn't slept well recently. After all, grandpa is a bit old, so I am a little worried about grandpa's health."
Looking at Ilsa who was worried about her grandfather's health in front of her, Su Cheng smiled, and then said: "Don't worry, it's just a bunch of peasant rebels. The reason why they haven't been wiped out yet is because we in Britain
The Niya Empire has not yet taken serious action. If our Britannia Empire takes action, this rebel army can easily be wiped out."
Just then, there was a knock on the door!
As soon as there was a knock on the door, a voice came from outside the door.
"Mr. Cheng, Your Majesty is here to see you. Your Majesty has something to tell you."
"Looking for me?" Su Cheng was stunned.
What does the emperor want from me? Have I done anything bad recently? I don’t think so.
Although Su Cheng was full of doubts, he could not disobey the emperor's order. He quickly responded:
"Okay, I understand."
Ilsa looked at Su Cheng with big eyes.
"Teacher Cheng, why were you called over by grandpa?"
Su Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know either. Let's go over there first. Ilsa, you can read a book first. I'll be right back."
...
at the same time.
Pendragon, Jacob Churchill's residence.
Jacob was sitting by the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scenery outside the window while carefully sipping the black tea in his hand.
A waiter suddenly walked up to Jacob and said:
"Sir, the commander-in-chief of the Gabriel Knights and the unified knight Iselhir is at the door of the mansion now, saying that he wants to see you."
Jacob smiled and nodded.
"Let him in."
The waiter who received the order bowed and then left.
Soon, Jacob heard footsteps getting closer and closer to him.
"Mr. Jacob, is this really good?"
Iser's voice came from behind Jacob.
"Do we really want Su Cheng to lead 5,000 people to put down this rebellion?"
Jacob put down the black tea cup in his hand, then slowly stood up and turned around, looking directly at Iselle with his sharp eyes.
"Mr. Iser," Jacob said, "please have confidence in my judgment and in Su Cheng. I have absolute confidence in Su Cheng."
"Of course, Su Cheng can also choose to refuse this task."
As Jacob said this, he put his hands behind his back and turned around, rushing his back toward Iselle.
"It's just that," Jacob said quietly, "I guess this Su Cheng will not refuse this task."
"Why?" Iser asked doubtfully.
