Become a martial girl

Chapter 426 Breaking the Cocoon
The water flows in slowly, and the scenery on both sides recedes slowly as the water flows forward.After hearing all this, Edward just stood there blankly, having lost his home in an instant.He didn't speak, didn't move, it seemed that his world was frozen and turned into a blur, and he couldn't see clearly what was in front of him.

Continue to tell Edward the truth at this time, making Mengdie feel a little cruel.But she still took a breath, and said slowly: "Edward, remember you once said that you were brought up by the real steward, right? Your uncle seems to be nice to you, but he controls a You are just a child, you are not allowed to go out casually, and you are not allowed to contact anyone casually. And more importantly, he has not taught you any emperor skills."

"Politics, economy, culture, diplomacy. All kinds of things that a king of a country needs to learn. You have hardly touched it in the previous 20 years. If your uncle wants to train you to be a fool, a I don't think it's strange at all if you're a wimp who only knows how to eat, drink and play all day long. So, the battle for the succession to the throne started long before you were born. If there are no accidents, you should still be staying in the palace now Here, holding beautiful wives and concubines on the left and right, while enjoying music and dancing, you must have fallen into a waste in people's minds."

"However, there was an accident. That was the head of the Royal Knights at that time, the former sword master Sardinia, and now Uncle Rand."

"Your teacher has an incomparable status. Even the real manager can't restrict his care for you too much. It is precisely because of his old man that you are lucky enough to have access to swordsmanship, basic knowledge, reading, and word recognition. But It's a pity that Uncle Rand is not a king, he's just a general. So I don't know how to teach you, who was still young at that time, everything that an emperor should learn. Therefore, he can only instill in you to love the people and protect you The most basic truth is to be the king of the people.

"Of course the real manager has seen all this. The plan to train you into a fool and an idiot has become difficult under the interference of Uncle Rand. He plans to get rid of the sword master. In terms of strength, I am afraid that no amount of assassins can kill you." It was just to die. Therefore, he took outsmart measures and used Sword Master's loyalty to single-handedly plan the incident of the Yinyue common people's rebellion."

The water flow came to a crossroad, and the slightly congested traffic slowed down the speed of the ship a little...

"As a result, your uncle was very satisfied. Uncle Rand got a discounted spine and became a permanent hunchback. He was deprived of the title of Knight Commander and given the notoriety of 'traitor' and had to leave Silver Moon. No more Commander of the Knights, the military power of Yinyue will naturally fall into the hands of your uncle who basically controls the country. As long as you grow up to be a real fool and act recklessly after taking the throne for a period of time, he can force you in the name of the country and the people. You abdicated the throne. So far, he finally got the title of 'King'."

The ship started to walk again, the blue water waves were gently cut, and some small fish under the water surface were faintly visible.The hot and humid wind blowing from the unique summer climate here blows out the cold sweat on the prince's back.

Mengdie's explanation ended here, she shut her mouth and waited for Edward's reaction.Would he immediately regret leaving Yinyue with him?Or would he pull out the sword behind his back angrily, clamoring to return to Silver Moon?Mengdie waits and sees.

"I didn't expect... I never thought of it before..." Edward raised his hands in a murmur, looking at his palms, "It turns out... so many things happened around me... I didn't even think about my real uncle... …He’s done so many things…”

Mengdie: "Do you regret it?"

Edward raised his head, looking at Mengdie with a little confusion.He hesitated, as if he didn't know what to say.After a long time, he murmured: "No... I don't know why... I feel more sadness... Why does uncle do this kind of thing? If he really wants the throne so much, I can give it to him. But he didn't tell me... just for the throne, the silver moon mutiny incident, the fire in Garuru town, the water robbery lake incident, the silver moon siege... Uncle killed So many people...just to destroy me...and Mr. Sardin...he...he has become like this...it is also my fault..."

Recalling the tragic killings when the civilian riots were suppressed back then, and thinking of the soaring flames on Lake Missouri two years ago.Thinking that so many people died because of himself, the young prince felt dejected, and unknowingly, two lines of tears flowed from the corners of his eyes...

A manly cry doesn't mean weakness.Those tears meant nothing but kindness...kindness shed for the civilians who died innocently.Mengdie sighed and reached out to pat Edward on the shoulder.

"Now you know everything. After knowing all this, what do you plan to do? Contact the nobles in other areas of Silver Moon and form an army to counterattack Silver Moon? Or go find Uncle Rand of the Black Flame Snake and ask He confessed his determination to become king, and then brought him over?"

"Do not."

Edward wiped away tears from the corners of his eyes.When she raised her head, Mengdie didn't see any hatred or anger in those eyes.On the contrary, it contains infinite sadness and pity.

"Too much blood has been shed for this throne. I don't want to see Silvermoon's soldiers and people die."

"Actually, the throne itself should belong to the real uncle. Although this is not polite to the father, but in terms of behavior and ability to handle government affairs, the uncle is much better than the father. If not Because of the rule that the elder is the king, uncle must have become king long ago. Moreover, in that case, uncle must be very kind and would not do such and such cruel things."

Edward sighed and continued——

"Counterattack Yinyue... What's the point? Mengdie, just as you said. I have no talent in managing the country at all. Maybe you will say that I haven't studied, but I think I really can't do it. So Over the years, Yinyue has become famous under the management of her uncle and brother Dika. They are more suitable to be kings. For this reason, I will leave. Even if I may never set foot on the land of Yinyue in the future, as long as Yinyue can be strong, and I, who is far away, will be happy for it."

As if a knot in his heart had been untied from then on, Edward raised his sleeves again and wiped away the last trace of tears on his face.There was a carefree and very relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth, and his voice gradually became clear——

"I love my country, even if I'm not the king. I love my family too, Uncle Zhen, brother Edika, and my father the king. I love my people even more, I'm afraid until I go to the grave, I I will never forget the scene when I walked out of the palace with Teacher Sardin, walked among the people, and talked about it."

"I will leave. A peaceful and prosperous Silver Moon does not need more troubles and entanglements. But..."

Edward suddenly raised his right hand wearing a long hand, pulled out the Sennadra behind his back, and pointed to the sky!

"No matter how much time has passed, no matter how far the distance has been. As long as Yinyue is in danger! Whenever a warrior or a sword is needed, no matter where I am, I will show up to the people with my sword in my hand. In front of you. I, Edward Lanxi Demoor, swear here that I will never break my oath!"

The sonorous oath made Mengdie couldn't help applauding!Edward has always behaved like a child.But now, Mengdie saw the child in front of her grow into a man of indomitable spirit!The applause was not only for him, but also for those people of Silver Moon who didn't even know it!

"Hey, hey, I'm talking about the two of you. If you're talking about love, talk about it. Can you stop drawing swords and applauding on my boat? Others think I'm carrying two lunatics."

Uh... well, although Mengdie was very moved by Edward's performance.However, the location seems to be a bit wrong.Both Mengdie and Edward scratched their heads, smiled awkwardly, stopped applauding, and put away their swords.

"So Edward, where do you plan to go from now on?" Mengdie asked.

"Well...well..." Edward propped his chin, thought for a while, and smiled, "I'm already homeless now. So from now on, I may be like you, wandering around, wandering around. The place where the moon shines is my home. If you don't mind, I am willing to travel with you all the time. There are enemies, we will face them together, there is bread, we will enjoy them together. As long as you are willing, my sword will Always guard behind you. I will become your most trustworthy comrade-in-arms and your strongest guardian swordsman."

Edward put Cynadra on Mengdie's shoulders, the sincerity in his eyes without any affectation.He sincerely and honestly expressed what he most wanted to say in his heart.

For these words, Mengdie laughed.She also stretched out her hand, put it on Edward's shoulder, and said sincerely and sincerely: "I accept your protection, my friend, my comrade-in-arms. Don't forget, your back will also be guarded by me. Not only me This pair of fists, and the white wolf."

Encourage each other, then look at each other and smile.The two of them suddenly laughed loudly on the boat.Obviously, these laughter once again attracted the attention of people around.However, for comrades-in-arms who have shared life and death many times, what is this?

"Ah, boatman, what's ahead?" Looking up, he could see explosions coming from an oval-shaped open-air building in the distance.From time to time, water splashes are shot into the air, forming various shapes, which are really beautiful.After Mengdie stopped laughing, she asked.
