Chapter 175: Temple Peace Talks
"Your Royal Highness, you must know that the royal family's inheritance is continuous, and the queen already has an heir, and she has the legacy of the previous king, which you cannot deny." The guards and monks in the temple had all retreated to fifty meters away, a distance that was not entirely safe for Brant and Vanessa, but it was the farthest distance that Terrence could accept. Vanessa intends to convince Terrence from the rules of the game. "If you ignore these premises, your people will see you as a rebel, and I don't think your throne will be secure."
"Why are we listening to this stinky boy of unknown origin talking nonsense here!" Sir Cloria of the Red-faced Hall pressed his hand to the hilt of his sword impatiently, "We all know that this God-cursed woman can't even lay an egg!" ”
Brandt stepped forward, drew his sword in his hand, and cursed loudly.
"Quiet!" Terrence said to Jazz, "Listen to him." "A dozen or so important ministers in the palace were shocked by the change in the prince's attitude, could it be that His Highness was really willing to listen to the opinion of a nobody?
"The so-called name is not right, His Royal Highness the Prince forcibly seizing the throne can only bring disaster to the Burning Flame Country, just in order to overthrow the edict of the previous king, the lords of various places have every reason to send troops to crusade against you," Vanessa paced and talked eloquently, he made himself look as far away from the world as possible, only analyzing the shape and giving opinions, hoping that this neutral image would serve as a successful guide to Terrence, "His Royal Highness the Prince does not want to be a sinner in the Burning Flame Country, it is better to reach some kind of consensus with the Queen, uh," the princess smiled and narrowed her eyes, " I have come up with a good suggestion that can not hurt the interests of both parties, but also make things have a happy ending. With that, he took Deanna's hand and led her towards Terrence.
"Impossible! Don't even think about it! Deanna threw Vanessa away and pointed at Terrence's nose and scolded, "You humble second son, what qualifications do you have to ask me to marry you!" ”
Vanessa looked at Brant and saw that as soon as her aunt's words came out, the prince's eyes immediately darkened. Alas, this stupid woman.
Terrence was very restrained and did not have a seizure, but he also put away his signature smile, "I have also thought about this, if the queen can let go of her prejudices against me, I have no objection; But now it seems that I'm afraid you'll have to change it. ”
"There's no need to mention anything more," Deanna raised her head haughtily and turned back to her throne, "I'm not going to negotiate with a traitor!" She looked at Terrence with contempt, "Not only are you not qualified to negotiate terms with me, but you are not even qualified to inherit the throne - your vassals mock me for having no heirs, so what about you?" I heard that you have been entertaining for half your life, but you don't have any illegitimate children, are you too reserved or because you don't have the ability to be a man! Or," said the Queen, squinting her beautiful blue eyes, and smiling in understanding, "you like men, as the rumors say?" ”
Vanessa turned her gaze to the prince and observed his face, hoping to see anger or murderous intent in the subtle changes in his expression, but the truth disappointed the princess again, and Prince Terrence's smile returned to his face, and to keep smiling in the face of such humiliation, this person was either a fool or really unfathomable.
"If your dear majesty rejects me because she is worried about my orientation, then I can tell you unequivocally," the prince smiled calmly, "and I can impregnate a normal lady at any time. I apologize for my strange behavior, I have been so stingy with my seed, I don't want the whole country to have illegitimate children, and," said the prince, "although I am the second son, the woman who is worthy of bearing me a child has not yet appeared." ”
Vanessa almost laughed out loud, such an obvious humiliation Diana couldn't hear at all, I really didn't understand where she got the capital to fight with Terrence.
"If we dwell only on the issue of heirs, there is no need for this topic to continue." The prince smiled, "Because no matter how hard I try, I can't be one step faster than Her Majesty." There was a snickering from the ministers below, and this was exactly what he wanted.
"Kill him for me!" Deanna took the case. Sadly, her good nephew had already broken his heart and wisely chose silence as an answer.
"His Royal Highness has his own heir!" A loud voice resounded through the temple, and everyone turned their heads to look, it turned out to be the Duke of Restan who was a retainer of Terrence, and behind him stood two women, one of whom was covered with a veil and a burly figure below the eyes; The other has starry eyes and blonde hair, as agile as a fawn.
Katrina. Vanessa and Brant exchanged glances, although the girl's identity had already been guessed by the two, but her mother's choice to recognize Terrence in such a form was also unexpected by the two.
"Deanna, do you remember the Jumping Fire Festival sixteen years ago?" The girl's mother spoke, "I should have killed you by using your magic to make the nobles at the ball mingle with the people around you for fun, but since then I have Katrina, the only flesh and blood of Terrence," she said, reaching out and removing her veil and revealing a miserable face, and everyone was shocked by her strange appearance, even Terrence couldn't help but exclaim, and Cama continued to complain, "I want to thank you, you wicked woman, if it weren't for your absurd and cruel behavior, Nor will there be a perfect heir to the throne standing in front of you today. She turned to Terrence, who was speechless with astonishment, "Terrence, now, I hand over your daughter to you, and ask you to rightfully inherit the throne of the Burning Realm!" ”
It took a long time for Terrence to call out her name: "Kamaria! Aren't you already dead? ”
"Hmph, that's an excuse I'm ashamed to use." Karma put the veil back on, she looked at Terrence with a sparkling gaze, "I was cursed by magic because of my close relatives and became what I am now, but I don't regret it at all, I hope that the appearance of our daughter will help you at a critical time, and now, I have done it, my brother." ”
As soon as these words came out, the important ministers were like hot oil that had exploded into a pot.
"Are you Princess Kamaria?!" People gathered around and looked at the lady in front of them.
"Didn't the princess die sixteen years ago?" Some people wondered.
"Scandal!" The Royal Scholar's cane slammed into the ground, "How can a child born out of impediency be the crown prince of the flames?" ”
"Why not? As long as the prince acknowledges her identity! Someone immediately retorted.
"Shut up." Terrence's gaze roamed back and forth over Katrina and his sister's faces, his brow tightening as he judged if it was a dangerous trap. Finally, the prince asked Katrina, "Son, what is your magic?" ”
"Summon weapons." Katrina also stared at the Prince, and at the same time sneaked a glance at Vanessa, her face flushed.
The Prince nodded, "Very well, my magic is to summon a cute big cat, you will fall in love with it." Katrina laughed, instantly falling in love with her father, whom she had never met. But now that the prince was being tied up, the girl looked anxious, and she looked at Vanessa pleadingly, and the princess shrugged her shoulders and smiled helplessly at her.
