Chapter 63: The Covenant
Helian Feng listened to the expression on his face stretched slightly, he suddenly looked up at Yu Ran, and asked, "Brother Yu really thinks so?" β
"Of course it's true, I won't lie to Xiao Wu." Tamarin said leisurely.
Helian Feng tried to calm down as much as possible, and was silent for a while before he spoke carefully: "Actually, my father told me that if the person who was named the monarch in the edict was Brother Yu, then I can rest assured, don't worry about anything, just take out this edict when Brother Yu is in trouble." But if I am the one who is crowned king in the edict, then it is up to me whether or not to take out the edict, and I must be careful. He paused, turned to stare at Yu Ran and said, "But I think Brother Yu is Brother Yu, although I don't understand why my father wants me to be careful, but as long as Brother Yu is in trouble, I have no reason not to show it." β
"Little Five......" Yu Ran was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then turned her head to look at him carefully, for a while, a slight smile appeared on her lips, and she looked extremely peaceful between her eyebrows, "Little Wu, you will be Ning Jun in the future, you have to behave well." β
"If Brother Yu wants me to be Ning Jun, then I will definitely work hard. At least, I will try my best to guard Ning Guo before Brother Yu wants to be Ning Jun! When Helian Feng heard Yuran's words, he suddenly swept away his previous depression, his eyes were slightly red, but he still grinned at Yuran. He stood in front of his chest with one hand clenched into a fist, and his eyes were straight to the jade-dyed ones, and the bottom of his eyes was bright.
Yu Ran suddenly felt that she was dazzled by this smile, she believed that even she herself could not smile so naturally and thoroughly now that she was good morning, but Helian Feng, he really felt that what she did was right, he believed her unreservedly.
Yu Ran just paused, then bent his willow eyebrows, opened and closed his eyes, and replied, "Okay, then we have agreed." β
"It's agreed, Brother Yu is not allowed to go back!" Helian Feng nodded.
Yu Ran Wu smiled to himself, and then got up. She saw that Helian Feng was about to stand up with her, so she lifted her left hand and gently pressed it on his shoulder, making him sit down again. She removed her hand from his shoulder, habitually moved it to his head and touched it, and said with a smile: "I'll go back first, don't worry about today's affairs, it will pass soon." Father is gone, there are still many things to prepare, and of course, your enthronement ceremony, which cannot be forgotten. So, don't send me off, just have a good rest, from tomorrow onwards, it should be very busy. β
"Brother Jade......" Helian Feng seemed to be hesitant to say something.
Yu Ran hooked the corners of her lips, "Little Wu, I'm not an elder brother anymore." β
"Sister Yu, I miss my father a little." Helian Feng said.
Yuran replied, "But he's dead." β
"Was my father really poisoned by the second emperor's brother?" He asked again.
"Yes." Tamarin nodded.
"Then didn't even Sister Yu find it?" Helian Feng bit his lip.
"Yes, your sister Yu is not an omnipotent person, and my ability is not yet able to cover the sky with one hand. I also have to admit that there are people who are better than me. So Xiao Wu, don't be so good to everyone, and don't trust everyone unreservedly, otherwise, sooner or later, you will suffer a loss. In particular, you are now Ning Jun, the king of a country. Every step you take, you have to be careful, and you have to be careful, and every word your father has ever said to youβdon't forget, okay? Yuran's tone was shallow, but in the end, he still tried to soften himself as much as possible.
"Okay." Helian Feng responded, watching Yu Ran walk all the way to the door of the hall and prepare to push the door away, he suddenly got up and walked two steps, and asked out loud: "Sister Yu said that the person who is more powerful than you is Brother Rong?" β
Yuran's footsteps faltered, and she turned her head to look at Helian Feng, she smiled slightly, bowed her head slightly, and said, "Yes." β
"Really? I know. Helian Feng said as if he was clear, looked down at the ground, and then raised his eyes to stare at Yu Ran and said loudly: "However, I believe that one day Sister Yu will surpass Brother Rong." Because in my heart - Sister Yu is the most powerful person! β
Hearing this, Yu Ran looked at Helian Feng fixedly, then nodded at him, waved his hand and walked out.
Yuran stood outside the hall, looking up at the sky, the breeze blowing, raising her black silky hair. Her face was soft, and there was no real tiredness to be seen, but a kind of calm like a spring breeze.
She walked all the way along the palace road, and when she was about to go back to the main hall, she saw the three people walking towards her, so she stopped.
"Prime Minister Lu, Dr. He, and Captain Gong, haven't the three of them returned home yet?" Yu Ran folded his hands in front of him and said naturally.
The three of them listened, and then they looked away from Yu Ran.
Lu Chengji lowered his head, bowed his hand, and then said with some curtle: "It's just that I saw His Highness dress like this for the first time, and I haven't gotten used to it." β
"I really never thought that His Royal Highness would be full of red makeup, but he would have to wear men's clothes for five years." He Tong suddenly sighed.
"Your Highness's strategy is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and it can be described as a woman." Gong Hongyun had just finished dealing with the border city, and he had only rushed back a few days ago.
Yu Ran chuckled and said, "That's an exaggeration. However, it is also ...... If you don't get used to it, I'll go back to my old attire. β
"Your Highness doesn't have to worry about such a trivial matter." He Tong smiled and shook his head.
Yu Ran didn't care either, and shrugged his shoulders before saying seriously: "This time I really bothered the three of them first, and then frightened the three of them. β
"Your Highness doesn't have to say that. That night, we went to His Highness, and it was in advance that we were prepared for what might happen in the government. It's just that when I really knew the truth about His Highness's identity at that time, I was still surprised a few times when I thought about it. Lu Chengji responded: "Now, it is a blessing that His Royal Highness can finally get rid of these troubles and stand on top of the court." β
"Luck? In fact, this is not much different from the past. Not to mention the fortunate thing, this time it happened suddenly, when I left Ning Kingdom, it was originally beyond my expectations. Helian Jun took his life because of this, and I have no way of knowing, this is not a blessing for me, but a pity. After Yu Ran finished speaking, he actually sighed slightly. Her gaze seemed to pass over the three of them, and she didn't know where to look.
Like, it's really sad.
"It's also strange that we didn't find out earlier, and it has been delayed until now that we will let you ...... him," He Tong let out a long sigh.
Yuran shook her head, "It's not your fault, it's my negligence." Now that Xiao Wu has ascended the throne, I am very worried. β
"With Your Highness here, there should be no major problems after the Fifth Highness ascends the throne." Lu Chengji said.
"No problem? I don't think it's a big problem. Yu Ran smiled slightly, raised his eyes and said, "When the government and government alternate, it is also the most chaotic time in a country. Originally, the other three kingdoms were about to move, and it has already been seen from the recent events here that now Helian Jun's death is undoubtedly a good thing for them. Once a country has such an opportunity to let other countries take advantage of it, then I am afraid that there will soon be a great disaster. Actually, putting all these things on Xiao Wu's shoulders, I really feel a little sorry for him. I'm really not his good sister, but he still trusts me so much, it's really embarrassing for me. β
"Your Highness, I almost understand what you mean, I will return to the border in a few days, and I think if the other three countries start to make moves, they can also find out earlier." Gong Hongyun said in a deep voice.
"Taiwei has just come back, and he hasn't rested for a few days, you don't have to worry about this matter, I will send someone to take a look for the time being, Taiwei should rest in the capital for a few more days." Yu Ran waved his hand and said with a smile.
Gong Hongyun clenched his fist towards Yuran, "Thank you, Your Highness." β
When Yu Ran heard this, she grinned and smiled freely, she rested on her side with one hand, and covered her sleeve in front of her with the other hand, moved a few steps slightly, and then said in a warm tone, "How many years have you all been officials in Ningguo?" β
"Your Highness, counting the five years with Your Highness, it has been nine years." Lu Chengji made a way.
"I came to the court in the same year as Captain Gong, and I think it's been more than seven years." He Tong and Gong Hongyun glanced at each other, and then responded.
"It's been a long time." Yu Ran raised his head slightly, "I was only twenty-eight years old when I came, and now I am twenty and one." β
"Your Highness is still very young." Lu Chengji said.
Yuran chuckled, "yes, I'm very relieved to be younger than you, I don't want to look old-fashioned." β
"Your Highness speaks the same as before, and he is not forgiving at all!" He Tong smiled, not the slightest bit angry.
Yuran felt that she had laughed enough, and it was time to calm down. She looked at them, and said seriously: "You should have been loyal to Ning Guo and the Helian clan, but I'm not, I'm the one who is hated by everyone, to be honest, I didn't think that I could get your trust, and you don't need to suppress your temperament." After all, there are many things that cannot be forced. If you are tired of what you are doing wrong, then tell me. I am grateful to you, so I will not be resentful or angry with you, you can rest assured. β
"Your Highness, there is really no need for you to say that." Lu Chengji shook his head and said with a smile: "We know that your eyesight is good enough, so we don't need to lie to you." Indeed, in the beginning we were afraid of you because of your loyalty, because you were ruthless enough and decisive enough to do things, so we felt that everything we could do might cost us our own lives. The matter of the former prince is like a warning to us to be careful and cautious. But until now, my Highness, what you have done is admirable to us. I'm afraid that if it were any other person, he would not be able to do it like His Highness. β
"Ning Guo was originally very weak, and it couldn't be touched at all in the eyes of the other three countries, but since the arrival of His Royal Highness, Ning Guo has begun to work together, and he also has the capital to make his country afraid. To see a country become strong through its own efforts is the best reward for our courtiers. He Tong looked at Yu Ran and said.
