Chapter 52: Seven Secrets
Libera's mood had suddenly become heavy lately because he had learned a secret, a secret that he shouldn't have known.
Remembering this secret, Libera regretted that she was too curious and possessive. Ever since he became a woman named Sula, Libera had a hard time with her skills, and on the other hand, it was because of Sula's unyielding attitude that he had stimulated him to the point that he often wanted to conquer the woman completely, and then find out from her what Ayuka had said about himself.
In fact, he succeeded, but the taste of success was extremely sour. After countless attempts to kill the immortals, Sulla finally revealed one thing - on the eve of Ayuka's assignment to Palci for marriage, Ayuka had sex with a slave girl. The slave girl was pregnant, and it was Sula who reported the incident, and the princess decided to put the matter down for the time being, given that Aiyuka had already departed. Her intention may have been to get rid of the slave girl while the princess was away, but before she could take action, Kadir included all the princess's family members in the harem, and the slave girl disappeared, and the only people who knew about it were the princess and Sula. After that, all the children of Aiyuka were poisoned, and Aiyuka's bloodline was cut off.
Now the child in the belly of this slave girl may be the only bloodline of Aiyuka, and in this regard, the princess who loves His Royal Highness the younger brother deeply must swear not to tell the truth, so the slave girl should be safe. However, Sula has a different opinion, she thinks that it would be a pity to let the blood of Ayuka flow among the people, and this child with the blood of the Yaki royal family deserves a better life. Therefore, it is necessary to find the slave girl and her children as soon as possible, and to protect them and raise them. However, Sulla could not protect herself, and could not inquire about the whereabouts of the slave girl. The Honey Garden Audience gave her a glimmer of light. Libera's man became her first choice, especially when the king decreed that Libera should choose beautiful women in the honey garden, Sulla made up her mind, so she deliberately attracted Libera's attention, and achieved her goal with her characteristic seductive eyes.
Libera's reaction to Sula's judgment was only one. "Why me? I am a favorite of His Majesty, are you not afraid that I will betray you? ”
Sula's answer was simple and straightforward: "First. At that time, there was no one to choose from except Lord Libera, and secondly, when he was alive, Aiyuka used to say that you were his best opponent. A real man. ”
Faced with Sura's such a blunt explanation, Libera was speechless. Sura's judgment was unfounded, but unfortunately he told the truth.
First, on the issue of Kadir forcibly marrying Ayuka's family and killing his heirs. Libera did feel inappropriate. Even if it was to prevent the heirs of Ayuka from one day sitting on the throne of the king, the means were still despicable. The most important thing is that Libera is worried that Kad's only remaining heir, Kadi Monroe, seems to be inadequate, and if Yaqui's orthodox royal blood is unfortunately severed, then he can only choose an heir to the family of Kadir's unsuccessful brothers. Rather than having to do so at that time, it is more promising to choose the pulse of Aiyuka.
Secondly, as Ayuka said, Libera also thinks that Ayuka is a good opponent for her. This opponent is not so simple as an enemy, although the two are at odds. often clash with words, but there is inevitably a feeling of sympathy in my heart. The heir of Ayuka somewhat made Libera feel regretful. Now that I heard that he still has a bloodline, he naturally has the intention of maintaining it.
Third, on the surface, Sula's judgment is too simplistic, but from the deep causes, Libera is the best candidate. Libera, as a favorite of Kadir, a powerful minister with high prestige in the army, and at the same time a well-known rival of Ayuka, will adopt the orphan of Ayuka, which is the least to be believed, and if he is to educate the orphan, not only may he have the courage of his father, but also be very close to the court of Yaqui, which will be very beneficial in all aspects in the long run. The political value of this child is very great, and if he betrays him, Libera will only gain more trust from Kadir, and add to Kadir's schemes; But if you keep him as a pawn in the future, then you may become a great grace for survival, and if you are lucky, you may even become a great hero to assist the young master. Of course, this is only possible if Libera has political ambitions. Even if Libera's interest in politics is lacking, he knows what it means.
Finally, for a woman like Sula who is bold and smart, Libera can't help but feel a sense of admiration, which makes the balance of his psychology skew.
After much hesitation, Libera still agreed to secretly visit the orphan of the slave girl and Aiyuka, if it was really a boy, she would train him to become a talent, and if it was a girl, she would also ensure that she had no worries about food and clothing, and would find a marriage match for a high-ranking child in the future.
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Sulla reminded Libera of one more thing, that is, according to Ayuka, His Majesty has a secret intelligence organization called the Shadow Brotherhood that serves him, and is responsible for collecting information and assassination missions for His Majesty.
Libera had never heard of the group before, and it was only when she heard Sulla say this that she came to her senses, so it was no wonder that Kadir sometimes appeared to be unsurprised by some secrets, as he already knew the truth. At the same time, he was even more worried about the danger of visiting the orphans of Aiyuka, but since he had promised Sula, there was no other way but to be more careful.
This incident caused a huge burden on Libera's psyche. The original carefree life was gone with the increasing favor and status of the king, and Libera deeply felt that he had been caught in the whirlpool of political struggles in the Yaki court, and although he had realized it when he was made a viscount, when this day really came, he still inevitably felt related and difficult to let go.
As a result, in addition to his daily business, Libera often passes the time in the civilian bars where he used to hang out. It is there that he can regain a trace of his former leisure, although he can't wash away his inner worries, at least he can escape the cruel reality for a while.
The men and women in the bar laughed and cursed loudly, some were singing out of tune, some were simply hysterical laughing and shouting, the noisy environment infected Libera, he drank the wine in his hand, and then hugged a woman and danced, and at the same time sang loudly, his magnetic male voice quickly conquered everyone on the scene, everyone couldn't help but echo the voice, singing together, laughing and watching Libera and the woman dance.
In the dark corner of the bar, there was a man who silently watched Libera's every move, and no one noticed the man's presence, and certainly no one noticed his resentful eyes. (To be continued.)
