40.chapter 38 the politics

"What?"

Li Yaoke was taken aback, "Why did he take Hansen away?"

The peasant woman looked worried, and her words were not good: "That son of mine is not very obedient, the more I dislike the tower, the more he wants to go, and please help me bring him and the young man back, they can't have an accident!"

Li Yao nodded again and again: "Of course." As he spoke, he looked back at Yang Ming, who also stood up and assured the peasant woman, "Your son will come back safe and sound." ”

Perhaps because he looked more reliable, the peasant woman's frowning brow was loosened, and she bowed and left the door: "I'll lead the horse for you!"

Li Yao heard something wrong: "You don't plan to bring that guy back?"

He was referring to the reckless and uninformed young man.

Yang Ming: "He is not a child, he should be responsible for his own actions." ”

"But," Li Yao thought of the pile of bones outside the tower, "he was obviously going to die, and it was meaningless to die." ”

"Whether it is meaningful or not is up to me to judge, and I am not obligated to be responsible for him. ”

It's really Yang Ming's temperament, and he doesn't have any feelings for people who don't matter, and he doesn't like to be entangled.

Let's watch it yourself when the time comes. Although the young man couldn't speak, after all, he couldn't watch him die, and if he lost his life for the sake of that kind of princess

That's pathetic, really.

The horse outside the farmhouse had been prepared, and Li Yao also stepped on the horse with the impression that he didn't know where he came from, and his technique seemed to be good, and he kicked the spurs all the way, and finally arrived there.

When they arrived, the young man was arguing with the guards: "What do you mean that there must be proof, I have to get closer first to see what is going on?"

Guard: "If you don't have a certificate, you can't come out if you go in, otherwise you can't go in." ”

Young man: "Do you know who I am, I'mβ€”"

β€œβ€•β€•LaTourLandry!” Hansen on horseback said proudly.

Although the young man's words were robbed by the child, he still puffed up his chest and said proudly: "That's right, I'm a nobleman, and you won't let me in?"

"You must ask permission from the Snording family. ”

"I've got to go in first!"

"If you go in, you can't get out. ”

"I'm a nobleman!"

"You gotta get Snoldin"

The conversation is stuck in an endless loop. Li Yao reluctantly stepped forward and interrupted the young man: "There is no princess in the tower, you can go back." ”

When the young man saw him, he immediately raised his face and turned his nostrils to the sky: "You want to deceive me and prevent me from being recorded in history?

Li Yao had a headache for this kind of guy who didn't know the height of the sky: "I didn't lie to you, really, there is only one ugly monster in the tower." ”

This guard was not yesterday, so he didn't put up with Li Yao, but he didn't agree with Li Yao's remarks: "This gentleman, the princess of the tower is a zΓ i, and she is also a beautiful princess of the East, you know that the East is full of gold, so getting the princess is equivalent to getting the wealth of the rich country, and becoming the husband of the princess, and becoming the heir of a country!"

Look, look, these outrageous rumors are actually believed and sworn by so many people.

Yang Ming walked over: "Who did you listen to what you just said?"

The soldier paused for a moment: "Nobody, isn't that what everyone says?"

Yang Ming's brow furrowed again.

The young man didn't care about this, he just kept making a fuss: "I'm going to go in and have a look!"

The soldier was also annoyed by him: "Only enter but not exit here!"

Hansen mischievously spoke to the adult: "I'm LaTourLandry~"

"Hansen, don't make a fuss. Li Yao touched his head, "Do you know how worried your mother is about you, next time you can't run out without consent, you know?"

Han Sen learned the expression of the young man, raised his head, and snorted: "I don't want it, the one who dares to come to the tower to challenge is a man!"

Young man: "Yes, that's right. ”

Li Yao picked him up and put him on his horse: "In my opinion, no matter what kind of person you are, you can't call your mother a man, you know?"

Hansen nodded his head as if he didn't understand.

The young man was annoyed by the round-and-forth conversations, made up his mind, and said, "If you don't give it out, you won't give it out, and when I go in and defeat the evil dragon, you will have nothing to say!"

The guard was also worn out of temper: "Yes." But I've seen too many young people like you, so I advise you, forget it. ”

At this moment, there was a sharp roar from the top of the tower, and the monster suddenly spread its wings and circled around the top of the tower.

From a distance, it looks a bit like a dragon, but Li Yao, who has seen it up close, knows very well how ugly it is.

The young man really didn't have much knowledge, and when he saw such a monster, the guards helped him, so he didn't sit on the ground.

"It's so big, it's so terrifying!" He muttered as he looked like earth.

When the guard heard this, he couldn't help but laugh at him: "Why, didn't you just swear to kill it?"

Li Yao also used what he said to block him: "I remember you also said that a knight must keep his promise. ”

The young man didn't have the courage to speak any more this time, and he knew that he couldn't be embarrassed anymore, so he finally looked at the tower, and rode back with Hansen again.

Li Yao, who made a fuss, couldn't cry or laugh, and the guard sighed: "Fortunately, I was timid, and I went back as soon as I was scared, there were many people before, even if I saw it, I had to push inside, and none of them were not thrown down." ”

Li Yao: "I don't know when this scourge will be removed." ”

When the guard heard this, he whispered: "Come on, someone came to deliver a message the day before yesterday, saying that the crown prince will come over to kill the evil dragon in person in the next few days!"

Li Yao originally just said it casually, but he didn't expect to get such a big piece of information: "What, crown prince?"

Guard: "yes." ”

After inquiring for a while, I didn't get any other information other than this, but this one alone is enough to make people think deeply.

He and Yang Ming said as they went back, "Is this crown prince here to improve his prestige?"

Yang Ming: "Not all, the crown prince is not very old and doesn't have too many ideas, but Prince Geert is close to him. ”

Li Yao remembered that the peasant woman had also said that Prince Geert had brought the crown prince here to hunt in the past.

"Won't the king stop the crown prince?"

"The king is old, Geert's power is thriving, and all that is missing now is an event that will lead the king to abdicate. ”

Li Yao was a little puzzled: "It's like the crown prince will definitely be able to kill monsters, isn't it?"

"It is not necessary for him to kill, or to be killed, and in the end it is the king who will be blamed, and it will only be Geert who will ascend the throne. ”

"But after Geert ascends the throne, do you want to continue to let the evil dragon go?"

"He'll find an excuse to get rid of it. ”

"Whom, the brave?"

"Just send the troops. No one can stand against a single country. ”

He also wanted to say, why did I want so many people to die before that, but Yang Ming answered this question yesterday.

After all, for the political family, those are just as many props as you want.

At night he lay alone in bed and began to think about the girl in the tower again.

Why was a girl who was ugly and had a terrible voice caught in the tower?

Or, at the beginning, this qiΔ“ was arranged, a farce staged by Prince Geert.

In that case, this prince is too terrible, and he has spent a whole five years planning this matter, is it possible?

No, five years ago, it seemed to be about the year when the peasant woman said that the prince had come here to hunt, and he planned to go to the peasant woman tomorrow to ask about the situation.

I thought that why the princess and the evil dragon were just a legend that happened to come true, but the more I investigated, the more I found that this matter was not simple, and now it is even involved in the biggest power dispute in the country.

"The dragon has a religious meaning, and it is not only a struggle for imperial power, but also a struggle between royal power and divine power, after all, the humiliation of Canossa* has not passed for too long. ”

This time, the dog was added to the discussion while he was thinking, so it appeared naturally, and Li Yao was rarely not taken aback.

"What did you say Canossa?"

"Nothing, it's hard to explain. ”

"Damn, are you saying I'm uneducated?"

"This is an objective fact. ”

"You system, alas, how can I get rid of you?"

"Complete the mission and I'll leave. ”

Li Yao took advantage of the brain hole just now, and suddenly thought, "I suddenly felt that you would choose me, and there was a huge conspiracy after this. 」

Goudan'er replied very perfunctorily: "Yes." ”

"Maybe I'm the one chosen to save the world!"

The more he thought about it, the more outrageous he became, and he led the topic back: "I think outrageous is just a matter of angle, and the occurrence of a qiΔ“ thing is inevitable, even if the dragon does not appear, there will be other things that become victims of struggle." ”

"By the way, dog, is that really a dragon?"

"It's not. ”

Li Yao let out a long sigh, "I knew it wasn't. Otherwise, my good feelings for dragons for so many years would have been shattered. 」

"The act of valuing appearance is superficial. ”

Li Yao didn't plan to argue with it, anyway, what he said always made sense.

The next day, he went to ask the peasant woman again, and got the answer that the prince had come seven years ago, and it was not unreasonable to say that he had been preparing for two years, so Li Yao was even more sure that this qiΔ“ was directed and performed by Prince Geert. By borrowing this matter, he can not only become the next king, but also support the religious reform of the Lorald faction, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Once again, he felt that the political family was too deep, and felt sorry for the white bones under the tower. They are all young people full of dreams, but in fact they have become a stepping stone to dirty selfish desires.

Perhaps from the very beginning, they should have understood that romantic legends cannot live in this complex world.
