A Tale of Strategies For the Throne

Just when Novi was in amazement, the big lion, who was lying lazily beside Garland, suddenly stood up suddenly.

But this time, it didn't show an attacking attitude, only its ear tip moved, and raised its huge head to look forward.

At the same time, Novi also heard the sound of horseshoes.

It's not far from here, getting louder and louder.

At first, Novi thought that only someone was passing by, but the sound of horseshoes was getting closer and closer, and it was obvious that he was running here.

He knelt up suddenly, turned around and looked in that direction, his face serious.

Garland also heard.

The original laid-back look was put away, and he stood under the tree and stood up, looking in the direction where the sound came from, his eyes dignified.

Clang.

That was the sound of the sword coming out of the sheath.

Holding a long sword, the young man stood in front of him, his dark blue eyes looking straight ahead.

His other hand lifted slightly, protecting Gallan behind him, his eyes alertly looking at the large group of horses that had already appeared in his sight, and the man had entered the fighting state.

Seeing that the teenager, whose head was shorter than himself, put on a posture to protect himself, Gallan froze for a moment, then smiled.

He was about to speak, but the group of cavalry had rushed into the olive grove with a rapid and noisy horseshoe.

Leading is a heroic female knight in leather armour, her long pony tail flicked behind her head, she halted the reins, and the horse screamed loudly under her, raised her front hoof and stopped at the same place .

The group of knights she brought also neatly stopped behind.

The female knight first saw the sharp sword in the hand of the young boy in front of Garland from afar, her eyes became sharp instantly, and her hand was placed on the handle of the waist.

But she was close, and when she saw the teenager posing to protect the people behind him, and the black and red lion embroidered on the neck of the teenager's cloak, the look on her face relaxed.

She turned off the horse, walked quickly to Garland, and leaned on one knee.

"Your Majesty, please follow me back to the palace immediately."

Fataya said, "His High Priest Shepherd is very angry."

When it was discovered that Gallan had sneaked out of the palace and took away the big lion Nega, Xermuer was furious.

But he lost his temper, and he had to cover up Garland's departure from the palace while sending trustworthy people to look around.

Fataya is one of them.

After seeing Fataya and the other knights dismounting and kneeling, Novi retracted the sword, took a step back, and stood quietly behind Garran.

Garland stood under the tall olive tree, stroking the lion beside him with one hand.

He looked at Fataya who was kneeling in front of him and thought for a while, and asked, "Fataya, if I order you to pretend not to see me leave by now, will you obey the order?"

As soon as this remark came out, the knight could not laugh or cry.

"Your Majesty, you have been missing for a day. Although the high priest is angry, he is also very worried about you."

"Who made him force me to blind date..."

"Your Majesty, what are you saying?"

Because Gallan whispered to himself, Fataya didn't hear it.

"It's nothing."

Looking at the large group of knights kneeling in front of him, Garland sighed helplessly.

"I know, I will go back now."

He turned his head and looked at the teenager behind him.

"Novi, come with you."

"..."

No, I have to go back and practice martial arts.

Novi wanted to answer this, but he opened one of his lips, and he couldn't say it after all.

King Garland was protected by such a little person, it was not safe.

If it’s the handsome guy who came over in person, he would be able to leave without worry, but now this group of people don’t know if he has the ability to protect the safety of your majesty.

As a knight, he has the duty of guarding His Majesty.

Therefore, he had to personally **** His Majesty to the Royal Palace unharmed.

The indifferent-looking boy with awkward thoughts thought so, convinced himself, and then, with his eyes down, obediently followed Gallan back to the palace.

...

Garland had just returned to the palace with his forefoot, and hadn't had time to speak to Novi. Someone had stepped on the door.

Xie Muer, who had to help cover up Garland's departure from the palace, had to send people to look around for a whole day, and no longer vented. The sighing fire was about to explode.

The priest's robe was as neat and spotless as ever, and the spotless high priest stood in front of Gallan, his eyes staring straight at Gallan.

Although he still had a blank expression on his face, the gaze staring at Gallan was almost able to breathe fire directly.

Gallan's gaze flickered, avoiding Xie Muer's gaze a little guilty.

After a while, he could not bear it, and turned his help to the female chief aside.

Tapti smiled slightly, then shook his head at Garland.

Even she did not want to face Xie Muer in anger.

What's more, this time, Gallan was wrong, she didn't intend to help.

Garran, who was rejected by Tapti, could only manage to save himself.

After thinking for a while, he reached out and came to Novella, who was standing beside him, and smiled at Xiemuer.

"Xie Muer, haven't you seen Novi in ​​a long time?"

Garlan said with a smile, trying to change the subject.

"Look, they have grown so big, and they have been promoted to knights. Isn't it great?"

The high priest glanced blankly at the young man who was dragged over by his majesty as a shield. Although his eyes remained unchanged, his heart was a little surprised.

The face of the grown-up teenager can still see the appearance of the child.

When the child completely abandoned the identity of the prince, changed his name and changed his surname, and entered the town as an orphan, he did not pay any attention to the other party.

Unexpectedly, this man actually entered the army, and still made great achievements on the battlefield.

Not to mention.

‘Prince of West Asia’ has been dead for four years.

Now here is the Cavaliers Novi who played for Aaron Landis.

If the young knight really has enough potential to grow into a general of Aaron Landis, it might be a good thing.

...

Speaking of which, it was like this when I was a king or a prince, and I could always find a bunch of talents from strange places...Whether it is a Tal or a female general, or even a slave...

and many more.

He seemed to come to Xingshi for questioning.

He was almost awakened by Gallan's biased high priest in time to return his thoughts to the right thing.

"You should not leave the palace without knowing that all the ministers are waiting for you."

He said with a black face.

"I'm not going to play, I'm going to inspect, to see the surrounding military town..."

"I will talk about these things later. Now, Your Majesty, please go to the ruling room, and everyone is waiting for you."

auzw.com Xie Muer unceremoniously interrupted the defense of King Garland who tried to save himself.

Garland paused.

"I was very tired after a day of inspection, so I have something to do after a few days..."

His words were again interrupted by the cold voice of the high priest.

"Please go to the ruling room."

A few minutes of silence.

"...Can't you do it?"

"Please go to the ruling room immediately!"

Xie Muer repeated for the third time.

One word at a time.

…………

……………………

Under the supervision of the ruthless and shameless high priest, Samran, who had not escaped for a day, could only go to the ruling room.

The ministers who received the notice have been waiting here.

When Gallan sat down on the golden throne above, someone immediately came out from the side.

The square-faced man with dark brown curly hair leaned over and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, you should have a successor."

Sage said so.

As the head of the royal knighthood, it is his duty to guard the throne.

The continuation of the royal family is also one of the things he cares most about.

However, there is only one person in the royal family today, not to mention the descendants. King Galland does not even have the princess, so he can't help but worry.

In the past, the heads of the royal knights of the past generations were troubled to refuse different princes who wanted to draw him. He is probably the only one who does not have such troubles...

He thought depressed.

"Yes, Your Majesty, you have been arguing before that you are not mature enough and are not suitable for marriage, but you are now twenty-two years old and can no longer drag on."

Immediately followed was the old right prime minister.

He is very old, and now he rarely goes to Wang Ting to discuss. But this time, even the old sixiang who was nurturing at home on crutches, with the help of the servants, walked out of the battlefield.

"Your Majesty, whether it is me or the people, I have been expecting you to marry the princess. How can you live up to our expectations?"

He bitterly persuaded Gallan.

"Even ordinary civilians will get married and have children at the age of ten."

Not to mention the nobility.

Generally, nobles will have concubines at the age of 13 or 14, and most of them will get married at the age of 16 or 7.

"King Galland, for civilians, marrying a wife and having a child is their private affair, others should not interfere, but you are the king of Aaron Landis, and it is your responsibility to marry the princess and give birth to a successor."

At this time, Zuo Sixiang also stood up and looked at Gallan seriously.

This Si Xiang, who was in his prime, was also powerful.

"Please choose the princess as soon as possible!"

Xie Muer standing on the lower side of the throne followed the opening.

"King Galland, you said before, because the country is still in turmoil and you have no intention to consider the issue of marriage, but now that the country has stabilized, it is time for you to consider this matter."

"Yes, Your Majesty, you should marry the Princess."

"Your Majesty, the people are all waiting for the birth of the princess of this country."

"Please understand my worries."

"This matter can't be delayed anymore--"

"For the stability of the throne, Your Majesty!"

Several North Korean and Chinese tycoons took the lead, and other ministers and nobles followed up, persuading Gallan to choose the princess as soon as possible.

After all, this group of people was frightened by the original King Camos. I was afraid that Gallan, like King Camos, would not be married until the thirties.

So, almost every once in a while, they have to ask Galland to choose the princess, but these years have been perfunctory and delayed by Galland with various excuses.

But this time, the ministers who had been waiting in the ruling room for a whole day obviously refused to give up easily.

When the crowd swarmed and persuaded Gallan to marry the princess, only the Tsing Yi priest standing on the other side of the throne opposite Xie Muer kept his silence with his eyes down.

The ministers were extremely dissatisfied with the Sogna, the high priest of Nanna who always helped Gallan fool the ministers and let Gallan escape the forced marriage.

Many people think that this guy who was once a subordinate of Heimos is still secretly thinking.

After all, if Gallan never marries and has children, the first inheritance of the throne will always rest with Himmos.

Therefore, Soga deliberately sang the opposite tone with everyone, not to let King Garland get married.

At least Xie Muer and the head of the Sage cabinet thought so much that Soga was mischievous.

Soga, who was in charge, said he was really wrong.

He is absolutely loyal to King Garland.

He knew very well that even if Huimos was king under their assistance, they were only nominally overwhelming the temple of Shamash and were able to assist the king.

But now under the reform of King Gallan's regime, the Nanna Temple has its own real power. Apart from loyalty to the king, they do not need to depend on others at all.

Soga is very satisfied with the status quo, and sometimes he is fortunate that King Garland succeeded in ascending the throne before this kind of regime change.

Help King Gallan escape forced marriage, this is the king's order, can he not obey?

However, even if Soga, at the moment of turbulent sentiment, he would not dare to brave the world to save Garland.

Didn't see that under the attack of the ministers, even King Gallan could not speak.

"Your Majesty, you can't continue to perfunctory me."

In the end, Zuo Sixiang finalized.

"It will be the Flower Royal Festival in a week, please be sure to choose the princess at the celebration!"

Flower Festival.

Symbolizes the end of spring festival.

The flower is implied, meaning beautiful flowers are withered.

If you want to cherish it, you must pick it up before its withering and take care of it.

In the folk, it is a festival for the boys and girls of Aaron Landis to pursue their lovers.

Garland's courtiers have made up their minds to hold a grand celebration in the palace on that day, inviting all girls of noble age to come to participate.

So many beautiful and lovely girls, how can Garland King be the one.

Of course, it would be even better if you could hit a few or a dozen more.

Zuo Sixiang thought so energetically.

The ministers who achieved their goals retreated with satisfaction.

The Tsing Yi high priest, who had been silent in the ruling room, secretly released a pigeon after returning to the temple.

The carrier pigeon flew to the north with its wings.

Fly to the site of the black knight who repelled the invasion just a few days ago.

The author has something to say: 　　On this day, we recalled the fear of being dominated by the forced marriage of elders. ←←
