I weave fate in parallel time and space

Chapter 143 Human Heart
After the enthronement ceremony was simplified, it was actually held very quickly. He went to the church and was crowned by Isabel under the watchful eyes of the people.

After that, he was the ruler of this vast empire with a population of tens of millions.

However, after the coronation, Isabel remained in the palace.

Although Arthur has learned a lot of knowledge from Shaar, the knowledge on paper is still different from practice.

Moreover, Arthur needs to lead troops to fight, and he cannot take care of the huge amount of internal government affairs, so Isabel is also needed to supervise the country.

While Arthur's attention was on West France, what was going on in the south could not be ignored.

Although it can't directly affect the south, Isabel can exert pressure in various ways, warning that group of people not to act too recklessly.

In the legend of King Arthur, when King Arthur governed the country, it was Merlin who was responsible for becoming an advisor and assisting Arthur in governing the country.

So in a sense, this job was done by Shaar.

This made Xia a lot more relaxed, allowing him to have more time to enjoy life with Alicia.

In a sense, except for Eugenia, these sisters of Arthur are very capable.

However, within a few days, the army Isabel transferred from the east arrived in the town of Romil to make corrections.

And Arthur also formally met with the generals of this army in the town of Romir on this day.

Because it was once occupied by the West French Empire, their army burned, killed and looted here, many houses were burned, and many people were homeless, so many tents can be seen here.

The empire simply took over here, replaced the farmland for the people of Romir Town near the imperial capital, and resettled them in the countryside around the imperial capital.

The farmland and houses here are all taken over by the army.

In the army garrison in Romir town.

Arthur opened the curtain of the tent and walked in. He was still wearing the military uniform he wore when he was enthroned.

That was the military uniform representing the commander-in-chief of the entire army. The emperor of Britannia had succeeded to the position of commander-in-chief of the entire army since the day he ascended the throne.

Seeing Arthur's military uniform, several old generals sitting here obviously understood Arthur's identity.

They all got up and performed a basic etiquette to Arthur.

"His Majesty."

The place where this army is stationed is in Beizhou, so there are more people of Asian descent, and some of them are of mixed race. They are about 50 to [-] years old, and there are a few old men with half-white hair.

"Since I'm wearing this suit, just call me Commander." Arthur laughed.

He walked forward slowly and sat on a chair placed in the middle of the tent.

"Presumably, you should already know the purpose of my coming here."

Several old men and the rest of the generals looked at each other, and one of the old men spoke.

"Don't worry, we all know that.

Just leave the battle to us.

You don't need to think about it, all the military exploits are yours. "

The words were euphemistic, but the meaning was unmistakable.

To put it bluntly, it would be: "I know you are here to be gilded, but we don't believe in your ability, so we will give you what you want, and you don't come to guide me blindly."

It's normal to have this kind of thinking, because Arthur is only a teenager.

In this world, Huo Qubing is still in the minority after all, and the Mingbao sect is more numerous.

No one would feel at ease to entrust the fate of hundreds of thousands of people to such a person, even if he was the destiny.

Arthur smiled and didn't care.

Instead, he looked at the old man who spoke.

"I remember, your name should be Murphy Deng, right?"

Murphy raised his eyebrows and nodded.

"I've heard about you a long time ago." Arthur smiled, "During the Cartaya rebellion 30 years ago, you led troops to raid hundreds of miles day and night, and the rebels were caught off guard, and you put down the rebellion in one fell swoop, listen My blood boils."

Murphy's brows relaxed a little. The Battle of Kataya was the proudest work in his life.

"That was in the past, and now I don't have that physical strength."

"But your experience is definitely there." Arthur said.

Then, he looked at another half-centenarian old man, "And you, your name is Huo De, right?

16 years ago, you were the general of the South and repelled sixteen invasions from the Spanish Empire.

It used to be called the Wall of Miria. "

Howard smiled, "No one has called me that in years."

Then, Arthur called out the names of the other generals, talked about their respective achievements, and made some comments.

Although the generals are not the kind of people who will be flattered after being flattered a few times.

But they could tell that Arthur's praise was sincere, and what he said were all facts, and there was no deliberate compliment.

They are all veterans, and most of their past achievements have been buried in the long river of history.

The Mandate of Heaven can remember their names, and even remember their past events, which makes them feel respected.

The atmosphere in the tent gradually eased down.

"It seems that His Majesty knows us very well," said Murphy.

"Of course." Arthur said as a matter of course, "Since I want to work with you in the future, I must know something about you."

He scanned the crowd present.

"I know everyone's concerns. You think I'm too young and inexperienced, so you don't think I can be a qualified commander, right?"

"This"

Murphy exchanged glances with the others.

Arthur smiled, "Don't be shy, I'm not the kind of narrow-minded person."

Murphy nodded, "There are some."

"Actually, I think so too," said Arthur.

"But I think that my purpose and yours are the same, it's all for Britannia, to expel these damn invaders from our land, right?"

"Yes." The others also nodded.

Although Arthur had only been with Hart for a few months, Hart taught Arthur his wisdom as quickly as possible.

And Arthur is also very smart, and he quickly applied the knowledge he learned from it here.

For example, the "remembering other people's names" that I learned in Hart just now satisfies their desire to "become important people".

Another example is what he is doing now. When talking with others, don't discuss things that you disagree with from the beginning, but first talk about things that you can basically talk about.

That is, to prevent the other party from saying "no" during the conversation.

When people say "no", he has to stick to it in order to maintain his dignity.After the argument he might realize that it was wrong, but he had to maintain his dignity in that situation too.

Then contradictions naturally arise. From a psychological point of view, when a person says "no", there is a sense of rejection and resistance hidden in his heart.

At this time, no matter how hard you rack your brains, it is difficult to change their resistance and resistance.

So, learn to make people say "yes".

While getting as many affirmative responses as possible, learn to listen and guide them, which will guide the listener's psychology in the right direction...

Arthur's words continued, "I didn't come here for gold plating as you think, if it is for gold plating, I have many ways.

I am the emperor, all the achievements during my reign can actually be related to me, can't it? "

Murphy fell silent.

"I came here for the people behind us and the land under our feet, for the belief in my heart." Arthur said sincerely.

"I think all of you here have led your troops to come here even though you know the enemy is strong and we are weak. It should be like this."

People do everything for two reasons, one to look good and one to be real.

People will often think about the real reason, and when we face our hearts, we are all idealists, and we will prefer the reason that sounds good.

Therefore, if you want to change a person's will, you need to stimulate his noble motives.

Even some embarrassing people, if they can feel how honest and upright they are in your eyes, most of the time, they will treat you in the same way.

As long as the relationship is eased, Arthur will have the confidence to conquer them with his own ability.

"You are all heroes of the empire. When the empire was in crisis, you stood in front of the people without hesitation. I admire that very much."

Arthur said seriously.

"I don't want to stand behind you and become a protected person.

I am Emperor of Britannia, and it is my duty to protect my people.

Of course, I also understand that my ability is still too immature.

So, I'm not here to teach you how to fight.

I also always firmly believe that it is absolutely impossible to win a large-scale war with the wisdom of one person.

What to rely on is the group, the wisdom of everyone present.

And I, just come to join in this wisdom, that's all. "

The brows of several generals gradually relaxed, and with Arthur's story, their guard against the young new emperor gradually disappeared.

He even had a little affection for this sincere and humble child.

Becoming the ruler of an empire at such a young age, and even having the endorsement of a god, would make any teenager feel elated, but he was different.

Still so humble, noble and sincere.

Or……

It is precisely because of this that he is the destiny.

These generals said with emotion.

Castle interior.

Shaar was holding Alicia's hand, sharing the perspective he saw with Alicia.

Looking at Arthur, who in just a few words has a good relationship with this group of generals who don't even look down on the emperor.

Alicia fell into silence slightly, "He is indeed different from before, he seems to be a lot smoother in his dealings with others.

In the past, he should have challenged these generals one by one. "

Xia Ya was very happy, "It seems that this child is smarter than we imagined, at least he is quick to learn and spiritual."

Alicia nodded incredulously.

"But this is just the beginning..." she murmured softly.

"Yes..." Xia Ya also answered.

His gaze overlooked every corner of the entire empire, his eyes shone with a miraculous brilliance.

"The hearts and minds he will touch in the future are much more complicated than these pure soldiers..."
