Chapter 33: Hot Pot
In this way, Hao and Taylor nested in a luxury hotel, and they didn't dare to go anywhere for two days, just waiting for news from Andre.
If the king doesn't want to see Hao, the meaning is very simple, that is, "such a chaotic minister and thief, the department to which he belongs can deal with it by itself."
Fortunately, that night, although it was a little late, the news was still delivered, and Andre specially instructed, "Hao can wait in the hotel in military uniform early tomorrow morning, don't prepare for that Taylor, there is no place for you this time." ”
Haoren has Taylor by his side in Xiongdu, even if it is very late, a decent set of military uniforms is definitely not a problem.
Even Taylor actually came back with more than ten sets for Hao to choose from, in his words, "This is the first time I have met His Majesty the Kingdom, so I can't lose face in terms of clothing." ”
"I rub, but ...... But there's no need to be so exaggerated!" Hao said, pointing to a set of bright green armor full of hollowed-outs, "Labor and management are not Clark's little white face who likes to apply powder!"
"Silly! This is the latest popular style in Xiongdu this year, even the color!" Taylor said and took out another set, this set looked like it on the front, but as soon as he turned around, Hao was dumbfounded, and the back of the fishnet was red?
After reading more than ten sets, Hao chose the most ordinary one with an expressionless face.
This is a silver-white plate armor called "Gem Inspiration", except for the exaggerated and huge red gems on the chest and shoulders, the overall armor is still a good one, oh, there is the tassel curtain that hangs from the lower abdomen to the thigh, which has been torn off by Hao.
"You have a good eye, this set is all made of Demacian steel, and it is said that it is all quenched with the holy water in the temple, and the magic resistance is absolutely ridiculous...... Huh, what are you doing?" Taylor asked suspiciously, seeing Hao pry the gem with a dagger.
"It's too ugly, come, help me pry ...... together"
I have to say that people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and the next morning Hao put on this armor and suddenly seemed to be a different person, and the chest and shoulders did not seem to be missing because the gem was pried, but the whole set of armor was full of streamlining from top to bottom, and then matched with a blue cloak, even Hao himself said, "Made, labor and management themselves don't know, labor and management can be so handsome!"
Soon, the people sent by Andrei also arrived, and informed him that the old general had gone to the Castle of Dawn last night, and that he would be in charge of taking Hao to the royal garden today!
Seeing that the other party came on a horse, Taylor reacted at this time, people from the military department rarely ride in the carriage, including Hao's current outfit, can you imagine how upside down it is to bend down and get out of the carriage with his head down?
Can...... Yes, riding a horse, what about a horse? Taylor had no choice but to grit his teeth again and contribute his foal.
Fortunately, a long time ago in his own castle in Tobizia City, Hao often teased this divine horse when he practiced riding, or even if he tamed it, it would inevitably take a lot of effort and time!
Taylor's foal is named "Chayun", and when Hao saw it again, he had learned a lot about war horses after such a long military career.
In the world of Runeterra, only horses that meet the standards of speed, stamina, endurance, and defense can be called war horses, and this kind of horse can only be obtained by taming wild horses produced in the Norkmerch steppe.
As for breeding and nurturing offspring, the quality is much worse, basically the second generation will completely lose one or two of the advantages, and the body size will also shrink a circle, and by the third generation, it is already good luck to be able to retain one advantage, and completely degenerate into a creature like a mule!
And on top of the war horse, a divine horse like Chayun, in addition to the top of the various values, generally has one or two special skills, according to Taylor's boast, Chayun's special skill is not afraid of water?
This kind of magic that is not afraid of water is immune to water ice and ice, and it is said that it can swim for a long time!
"I'm telling you, oh, you must watch the clouds!" Taylor said solemnly.
"Don't worry, I won't let those stallions get close to your Zhuyun!" Hao turned over and got on the horse, this silver-white armor, with a snow-white horse like Zhuyun, is really a perfect match!
On the way to the royal garden, you have to pass through the magnificent square and the castle of dawn, Hao, who rode on a horse all the way, did not have time to appreciate these two miracles carefully, anyway, it gave him the feeling that it was big, huge, oversized, and you think that the building that can let people ride horses on the way to the door can be small!
Finally arrived at the royal garden, it was normal, Hao Ye only took a few close glances at Jiawen III when he was introduced by the old general Andri, the ruler of the kingdom of Demacia, who looked about the same age as the old general Andre, but his figure was outstanding tall and mighty, but the tiredness between the eyebrows seemed to be silently telling how hard it was to manage such a big country.
"Yes, a very energetic young man, do a good job!" The king's encouragement reminded Hao of General Anthony, who seemed to say the same thing at the time, and said that he was also from Xiongdu?
Next, of course, the king will not hold Hao's hand and talk about the family's family, in fact, for the whole day after that, Hao's position is far away from the inner circle, and some nobles even regard Hao as a soldier of the Praetorian Guard standing guard.
This royal garden is naturally in the same vein as the style of the four miracles, that is, it is big, so hundreds of people are sprinkled into it, to be honest, it doesn't make a difference, it won't take long, and he is the only one left by Hao's side!
To say that Hao has been half of the mountain people in the Shining Silver Mountain Range since he was a child, it is of course no longer a problem to set up a trap to hunt wild beasts with a net and a bow, but when he really catches a docile little animal, he feels very bored, as if you are used to going wild fishing, and suddenly change to a breeding pond, and the fun of keeping you fishing will be much less.
However, Hao found that the plants in this royal garden are growing very well, especially some mushrooms, probably because no one has ever picked them, they are big and fat, and they pick some when they are idle and bored, and there is even a clear stream in the garden, Hao uses small stones to block a small dam, and it is easy to catch a few small fish......
And just like that, with the melodious sound of the trumpet, Hao ended the first day of this royal hunt, uh, this hunt was planned to be two days.
At the end of the first day, most of the people returned to the camp, which had fresh water, campfires and tents prepared.
"Alas, you kid is back, quick, come with me!" said Andre anxiously.
"Where are you going?" Hao looked at the sky, at this time the afterglow of the setting sun was still sprinkled in the sky, it was not too late to come back, right?
"His Majesty has just said suddenly that he wants to summon you. Andre said with a hint of happiness in his tone, "Look at that posture, maybe I'm going to invite you to dinner!"
The camp will not be very large, and the two of them walked to the largest tent in the middle, where the ground was already covered with a thick carpet, and the long table was also full of fine wine and dishes, and sitting in Jiawen III of course sat in a chair covered with thick fur, and there were several people sitting next to him, one of whom Hao recognized at a glance!
"Prince......" Hao almost blurted out, "Why are you here?" Think about it, isn't this nonsense, it's not a joke that Lao Tzu goes out hunting, and it's perfect to be his son's companion, right? So the second half of Hao's sentence was, "Your Highness!"
"It's been a long time!" the prince smiled reservedly and nodded at Chong Hao.
"Don't do the etiquette, I have already ordered, when hunting, everyone is a hunting partner, regardless of the king and the minister!" the king said kindly when he saw that Hao was still stiffly saluting in the plate armor, and then he seemed to guess that Hao was going to say "Your Majesty Xie" and then saluted again, he added, "How is it?
"Uh......" Hao was embarrassed, how can this be answered?
"It's okay, don't be afraid of catching too much, it scares us when you say it, His Royal Highness the prince only came at noon, and he actually caught a wild boar and a deer in the afternoon, can you outdo him?"
"Uh......" Hao simply threw the cloth bag in his hand in front of him, and said embarrassedly, "I...... I picked a dozen or so mushrooms and caught four small fish!"
"......" The sound of the audience stopped abruptly, and only the bonfire that had just been lit up crackled.
"What? You said you went to pick mushrooms today?huh?hahaha......" The king burst out laughing, and immediately everyone was no longer suppressed, but also burst into laughter!
In the royal garden, the hunting activities led by the king, someone actually ran to pick mushrooms? Hao, this is unprecedented and unprecedented!
"Hahaha...... Oh, you kid......" The king wiped tears from his laughter, and asked very seriously, "tell me why you are lazy, then I will have to let Andrei beat you well!"
"Uh......" Hao thought to himself, could he say that the animals in the broken garden were not wild at all? Obviously not, where did he put the faces of these excited people? Can he say that it was actually because he was a vegetarian? Where did the faces of the damn four little fish go?
"Your Majesty, I always thought that the sword in my hand was used to pierce the throat of a Noxian......" Hao pretended to open his mouth, and suddenly an inspiration sprung up, and he continued, "As for hunting, it is just a last resort when we are desperately short of food!
"Oh, what kind of dishes have I not eaten?" The king really stopped pursuing the mushroom picking, but Hao couldn't take out a dish that no one else had eaten, and he would probably have to be punished.
"Fire ...... Pot!White soup hot pot with mushroom stewed fish soup as a base!" Hao said slowly and confidently.
