Lone Wolf of the Freljord

The legal age of adulthood in the ancient Shurima Empire is very early, males reach adulthood at fourteen, and females reach adulthood at twelve. They can marry and have children almost as soon as they become fertile.

It stands to reason that giving birth so early is very risky, but many records describe a huge watershed flowing through all of Shurima, originating from the imperial city of the ancient Shurima Empire, by the so-called "Oasis of Dawn" Locally produced, the river water has a certain magical effect and will not be polluted by sediment or filth. Many Shurima doctors use river water as medicine to make tonic water, so that pregnant women who are still very young can give birth to babies safely, with a very low rate of dystocia.

In line with the sexual openness, reproductive worship and multi-birth reward policies that the ancient Shurima Empire strongly advocated, the ancient Shurima Empire had an extremely large population. one of the important factors

Chapter 485 Argument

Setaka sat on the throne of the inner hall, looked at the large group of people standing under the seat, and said coldly: "It's already midnight, entering the palace so late to wake up the emperor to rest, you better have a suitable one. reason."

Luo Si stood beside Setaka with arms folded, and Mai Yisha stood with him, but both bodies had been subjected to illusion, and no one except Setaka could see it.

The three of them were not in a good mood. It was really unpleasant to be suddenly interrupted halfway through, and Mai Yisha was so angry that she bulged like a swelled puffer fish. But all the members of the Presbyterian Church rushed to the palace to ask for a meeting. Even Setaka had to sell the Presbyterian Church's face to receive them, and the **** of the three had to be interrupted.

In addition to the Presbyterian Church and the Eclipse King, Nasus also came, but he was obviously not on their side. As a Grand Scholar, he was responsible for supervising the Presbyterian Council's advice and giving Setaka's advice at the same time. At this time, he was standing on the underside of the throne, between the Presbyterian Church and Setaka, showing his neutrality.

"Your Majesty!" The elder standing at the forefront knelt down and said, "It is worth dying for disturbing His Majesty's pure ministers and other crimes so late! But the situation has become so serious that it has to be done! I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

"What's wrong?" Setaka put his elbow on the armrest and rested half of his face with one hand, "Which country has betrayed? Or which Ascended is causing trouble again?"

"None of them." The elder said, his voice was old and trembling, full of the meaning of being cut, "This matter has something to do with Your Majesty!"

Setaka squinted his eyes slightly and asked knowingly, "What's the problem with this emperor?"

"Imperial Sister." Unlike the Council of Elders, the Eclipse King, who was a member of the royal family who didn't need to kneel, spoke, and Setaka, the old-fashioned younger brother, mournfully said, "There are no outsiders here, so let's talk about it, why do you want to be with someone? slave marriage"

Luo Si looked at the audience in silence, Mai Yisha leaned into his ear and said secretly: "The Eclipse King must be jealous of you, but he likes Setaka very much, and asked Setaka to marry him three times, but She was rejected."

"Thrice marriage proposals..." Luo Thirty remembered Setaka's words, if it wasn't for the discovery of the drawbacks of having children from close relatives, they might have really become husband and wife.

"You don't have to worry, the Eclipse King can't soar. He is so old. He can only live for decades at most by relying on healing water and various magical elixir." Mai Yisha comforted.

"Decades..." Luo Shi's eyebrows twitched, "If I don't fly, I can live for decades at most..."

"Hee hee, don't worry, you can live a long time." Mai Yisha was still smiling.

The younger brother Setaka looked at, lightly opened his lips: "I remember, you didn't come on the day of the competition, right?"

Luo 30 looked at Setaka, the queen did not call herself "the emperor" when facing the eclipse king.

The Eclipse King lowered his head: "Yes, because I was unwell that day..."

"Are you feeling unwell..." Setaka looked at the Eclipse King, with inexplicable emotions flashing in his eyes, "If you knew that I would really decide a husband on the day of the competition, would I still use such a lame excuse. "

"I have no excuses, Queen." The Eclipse King looked straight into his sister's eyes, "I am a mortal, and I am different from an ascendant. I will get sick and I will die. No amount of means can stop Qian Jue from taking me. Take it away, this is the fate of mortals."

Setaka stopped watching Eclipse King, Luo Shi had a hard time reading Setaka's specific emotions, but she could see that she didn't really want to face Eclipse King.

"Every family has a hard-to-read scripture..." Luo Shi said, but he suddenly remembered that he didn't even have one in his family, which seemed to be much worse than Setaka and the Eclipse King.

"You have a home now." Mai Yisha suddenly said, she broke into Luo Xiu's eyes playfully, as if she had read Luo Xiu's heart and smiled, "You have a fiancée and a girl you like now, Aren't you happy?"

"Can you stop talking about the fact that I like you..." Luo Shi really regretted that he had confessed so hastily back then, which made him very passive towards Mai Yisha now.

"No~want~" Mai Isara said in a long voice, looking like she was enjoying it.

Setaka glanced at the audience: "It's so late, this emperor doesn't want to waste time, so let's just say it. You should already know his name, it's called Luo Xi, he really defeated this emperor in a dignified manner, this emperor Of course you should keep your promise and marry him."

"Your Majesty!" an elder said in a mournful voice, "Absolutely not! There is no reason for the queen to marry a slave! It is clearly written in the code that slaves do not have the freedom to marry!"

"Grand Maester," Setaka said, "You are familiar with the Codex, so tell me."

"As ordered, Your Majesty." Nasus saluted Setaka slightly, then said loudly, "The slave himself does not have the freedom to marry unless his master allows it."

"Luo Thirty's master is Mai Yisha, Tayanari's life carrier. The emperor has communicated with her, and she has agreed to the marriage." Setaka said.

"Imperial sister." The Eclipse King interjected, "It's the time of celebration! You insist on marrying a slave! Let the embassies see my Shurima joke!"

"Is it glorious for me to break the oath I made in front of so many people!" Setaka scolded.

The Eclipse King took a half step back, as if he was frightened. He was an old mortal and could not resist the majesty of an ascendant, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "That's better than marrying a slave! Royal majesty will be destroyed!"

Setaka stopped looking at her younger brother. She asked the elders, "What about you? I also hope that the emperor will break his promise."

"With the power of the Shurima Empire and the majesty of Her Majesty the Queen, there is always a way to suppress the broken promise. We can start from the fact that the slave disguised his identity to participate in the contest and deny the fairness of the contest. As long as we use some means, it will not take a hundred years. No one will bring this up again." An elder said, "But if Your Majesty insists on marrying a slave, it will bring shame to Shurima and His Majesty for a long time! Longer pain is worse than short-term pain! Your Majesty!"

Setaka looked at Nasus again: "Master, how about you?"

Nasus was silent for a while, and said, "On the basis of my heart, I also don't support Her Majesty the Queen marrying Luo Shi."

Luo 30 looked at Nasus. Although the Grand Scholar also objected, his words were not as fierce as those of the Eclipse King and the Grand Scholar. Instead, he was very calm. Moreover, he did not call Luo 30 "that slave", but directly. call him by name.

"No wonder so many people respect him..." Luo Sa couldn't help but feel good about Nasus.

"Reason." Setaka said to Nasus.

"Many, what the Eclipse King and the elders have said makes sense, but I think the main problem with your Majesty's marriage with Luo Thirty lies in Luo Thirty himself." Nasus put forward a different view.

"What do you say?" Setaka asked.

Nasus explained: "The root of all the contradictions in this matter is that almost everyone thinks that he is not worthy of His Majesty. Although he did defeat His Majesty in Chakad, a Chakad can't explain anything. If we want to solve this matter perfectly, let Luo Thirteen make enough achievements for the empire, and maybe let more people think that he is enough to be your majesty's husband."

The Eclipse King and the Council of Elders looked at Nasus in surprise. They didn't expect the Grand Master to speak for the slave.

"You don't need to look at me like that." Nasus smiled politely, "I'm just proposing an ideal solution. In fact, the method proposed by the elders to make Her Majesty break her promise and then suppress public opinion is also feasible, but say In the end, it's still a bit damaging to His Majesty's reputation. If that Luo Thirty can really make extraordinary achievements repeatedly, proving his value to Shurima and his loyalty to His Majesty, the situation may turn out for the better, and people will praise His Majesty. With such a shrewd eye, he can choose such a husband."

"Ridiculous!" The Eclipse King said angrily, "How can a slave make achievements! This will never work! It should be cut through the mess as the Council of Elders said! Immediately minimize the impact of this matter!"

"This emperor thinks what the great scholar said is justified." Setaka said, "If Luo Thirty can make achievements, this bad thing will become a good thing, and maybe it will become a beautiful talk that will last forever."

"Your Majesty! This is too risky!" an elder objected. "The possibility that that slave can make a contribution is very slim! It must not be so risky!"

"Since this emperor ascended the throne, have you taken less risks?" Setaka slapped the armrest and said awe-inspiringly, "This emperor has slaughtered giant dragons in the South China Sea, and destroyed seven kingdoms in the north. Abolish the eunuch! The list goes on and on! When did you not strongly oppose it, but when did this emperor fail! Without these adventures of this emperor! How could Shurima have doubled the size of the territory now! The scenery of the coming of all nations!"

Luo Thirty looked at Setaka next to her in surprise. At this time, she was almost different from Setaka on the bed just now.

Only at this time did Luo Thir truly realize what a great and tyrannical queen this woman who was going to marry him was.

But such an empress whose achievements are so impressive, she is willing to marry such a nameless person as him, or a slave, just for the prophecy of Mai Yisha.

Luo Shi couldn't help but look at Mai Yisha, the star spirit girl blinked back at him, looking very cute.

"Protoss..." Luo Thirty touched Mai Yisha's head, but she immediately touched her back.

One of the elders couldn't help but get excited: "Your Majesty! If you are so obsessed with it! I'll have to implement the 'prohibition of imperial power'!"

"This emperor has decided on this matter!" Setaka said without any threat. "You have also given this emperor a clear idea! If you use the power of banning the emperor, what will be the consequences!"

Luo Shi couldn't understand, and asked Mai Yisha: "Can't the elders stop the emperor's behavior? Isn't Setaka afraid of the imperial power?"

"Setaka is the queen." Mai Yisha smiled, "How could the royal family give the Council of Elders the power to really hold it back? Although the ban on the emperor is useful, it can only be used once in a hundred years, and it can only be used for one time. This order. Once the Presbyterian Council uses it, Setaka cannot marry you, but within a hundred years the Presbyterian Council will completely lose the right to speak and cannot do anything. That’s why Setaka said that this prohibition order can only be used A very serious mistake to stop the emperor."

"It turns out that..." Luo Shi understood.

As Mai Yisha said, the Presbyterian Council really didn't want to use the ban on the emperor at all. This was their last trump card, and they didn't want to use it on a slave at all.

"Your Majesty insists, the ministers have nothing to say." An elder kowtowed to Setaka, "Then, as the great scholar said, give this slave the opportunity to make meritorious deeds. If he can do it, the ministers will wait. I will no longer object to this matter. But if he can't do it, please give up this marriage, Your Majesty."

"Okay." Setaka looked down at the elders, "You don't need to tell me, this emperor knows that in order to prevent this emperor from practicing favoritism, it is up to you to decide what kind of merit Luo Xiu should make. It's good to see the emperor."

"It's amazing." Luo Thirty praised, "It's really as planned, the elders will step back."

"Don't be too happy, the elders will definitely give you a very difficult task." Mai Yisha poured a basin of cold water.

"It's okay, compared to marrying Setaka unjustly, I also want to prove to everyone that I am worthy of her." Luo Xi clenched her fist.

"Wuwuwu, when you have a new love, forget the old love. Have you forgotten the girl you confessed to?" Mai Yisha had tears in her eyes.

"..." Luo Shi decided not to answer this question.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The elder kowtowed, "But besides that, I have another request."

"You said." Setaka said.

"Excuse me for taking the liberty, Your Majesty... I shouldn't have had **** with that slave yet," the elder asked.

The Eclipse King's face trembled.

Setaka said coldly: "Not yet, the emperor is still a virgin."

"Then ask Your Majesty to put this matter on hold. In order to avoid the worst situation, that is, the slave did not make meritorious achievements and let His Majesty conceive a child. Please keep your Majesty separate from him." The elder pleaded.

"The minister also has the same opinion." Nasus also agreed, "It is inappropriate to let Luo 3 live in the bedroom now."

"Tsk, the Presbyterian Church is still scheming." Mai Yisha said dissatisfiedly, "Now you can't live without shame with Setaka, and you can't use Setaka's pregnancy fait accompli to force the elders to make concessions. already."

"Why doesn't Setaka lie?" Luo Thirty wondered.

"It's useless, if you can find a midwife with sharp eyes to see this kind of thing." Mai Yisha shrugged helplessly, "There are many other verification methods, which can't be hidden, and they are not pregnant. It doesn't make much sense to go up, but it's a pity that I couldn't do it all at once, it would be great if I got pregnant."

Luo Shi felt a pity himself, and could only say that the elders would come too soon.

"Understood, this emperor agrees." Setaka really has no reason to reject this proposal, "This emperor will let Luo Shi live in other places temporarily, Grand Scholar, just let him live in your palace."

Nasus was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "Yes."

"It looks like this is today's result." Mai Yisha patted Luo 30 on the shoulder, "It's a pity that I can't live in the bedroom."

"Is it okay?" Luo Shi frowned, "Don't you want to write about the secret history of the palace? How do you write it now?"

"There are always more ways than difficulties." Mai Yisha smiled slyly, "The elders will be smart enough to let you separate, but I don't know that this will make my book more popular."

Luo Shi was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"There is one thing in this world that is more eye-catching than pure couple sex." Mai Yisha grinned, "that is..."

"what?"

"Stealing."

Chapter 486: The Attitude of Nasus

According to the agreement between Setaka and the Presbyterian Church, Luo Shi and Mai Yisha left Setaka's bedroom that night. It was also the first time that Luo You had a brief and clear meeting with the Presbyterian Church and the Eclipse King. .

The elders couldn't see their emotions because they were all hiding themselves in their cloaks, but the eclipse king was very obvious - there was only hatred for Luo San on his face.

Luo 30 naturally didn't give him any good looks. He didn't even salute him. He just said goodbye to Setaka, and then followed Nasus out of the palace's main hall.

Nasus's residence was very close to the palace, almost a side hall within the palace's confines. This dog-headed ascender led Luo Xi and Mai Yisha silently all the way, and only spoke to Luo Xi after stepping into the house. Talk to Maisha: "Do you know what you're doing?"

Mai Yisha and Luo Thirty looked at each other, and then Mai Yisha smiled: "Master, I don't know what you are referring to."

"Alas." Nasus sighed, put the long-handled axe on the weapon rack and walked slowly into the seat, "Sit down, there are no other people's eyes and ears here, let's have a good chat."

Luo 30 and Mai Yisha took their seats. As Nasus said, there was no servant or slave in the place where he lived. Nasus was making oil and milk tea on the fire himself, and while making it, he said: "I often have guests here, Queen. Your Majesty also often comes to me to talk about state affairs, and gradually learned the skills of making tea."

"I know." Mai Yisha smiled, "Lord Tayanari keeps talking about coming to you for tea every once in a while."

Luo 30 took the tea set that Nasus handed over. It was a normal mortal size, not as big as Nasus's teacup and washbasin.

"Thank you, Master." Luo Thirty thanked him. He drank the tea made by other people only a few times in his life. He raised his head and drank it all in one go. The hot oil and milk tea was very fragrant. with a pile of bubbles.

"Look at you, you are so embarrassed, don't let the big scholar see the joke." Mai Yisha leaned in front of Luo Shi's face and stuck out her tongue to lick the tea foam on his lips clean.

Mai Yisha's action really made Luo 30 very moved, but Nasus was still here to embarrass Luo 30.

But Nasus didn't care, he took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Mai Yisha, you don't have to play in front of me."

Mai Yisha turned her head in confusion: "I don't understand what you mean."

"It's fine if you don't understand." Nasus looked at Luo Thirty. "What about you? Do you really want to marry His Majesty?"

Luo Shi said without hesitation: "Of course."

"For what? You and Her Majesty the Queen just met, I don't think there is any feeling between you." Nasus stared at Luo Thirty.

Luo Shi looked down at the empty teacup in front of him, and next to him came the sound of Mai Yisha blowing at the hot tea.

"I'm a slave." Luo said, "I want to live like a human being."

"that is it"

"that is it."

Nasus sighed leisurely: "Oh... just for this, are you going to pull the queen of a country into the water?"

"You are high above, maybe you don't care about the life and death of my slave." Luo Thirty said earnestly, "But I don't think so, I want to live with Mai Yisha openly and honestly, and Setaka, she is also willing to support me."
