But I never thought that the person I fancied would treat me like this, and when his eyes were red and he just pulled my hair, I realized that he not only distrusted me, but even the incomparable respect that he had just married was probably pretended, and when I knelt at his feet and pleaded for my child, the madness in his eyes was so similar to that person.

I always thought that I was the most favored child of the Mastiff King, but on that day I realized that he was not pampering me at all, but paying off a person's debts, and all those spoiling and caring were fake. Think about it, how can a hero who sees the world more important than anything else love a little princess for no reason? Probably even when he was playing with me, he had a smile on his face that was forced to suppress his unhappiness. One day when I grew up, I suddenly heard the truth from a few nurses in a low voice.

It turned out that I was not his daughter at all. The mastiff king who usurped the throne had a closest brother, and although the two were equally talented, the emperor passed on the throne of the khan to another man.

At that time, there was a war on the frontier, and the two people who were most likely to inherit the throne were leading the troops on the front line, and after hearing the news of the death of the first emperor, the mastiff king first reflected, and only returned to the palace with a few relatives to inherit the throne, but the other person was unable to get support because his brother who was not in the camp and was besieged by tens of thousands of troops for thirty-two days. At that time, his brother was belatedly with a large army.

I can see that my brother, who is lying in the mastiff's arms, uses his last strength to make a request to the mastiff king to keep his pregnant wife safe. What could a proud king not agree to a dying man's request? After secretly sending the poor woman who didn't know that her husband had died on the battlefield into the palace, the mastiff king even strictly ordered the palace people to mention anything about his brother in front of her, and he even declared that it was just a concubine of his own, and he even gave her the treatment of the lowest little master, which was called "protection!" He spent all his time fishing in the lake even when she was in the most pain, and he probably forgot that his brother had a wife who took care of him, right?

The painter, who had grown up with the two brothers, was not ashamed of the Mastiff King's character, and deliberately painted the child's eyebrows and eyes like the woman he had once favored, and he even remembered the poor woman who was already lying in the corner of the cold palace—and she even had a daughter now. He didn't stop trying to get there, hoping to see the baby baby who looked like the woman he had loved the most, and he found me.

Maybe the woman still doesn't know anything, maybe the woman already knows something, through the layers of guards she looked at the man standing quietly by her bedside in horror, she knew that maybe she didn't have any value to stay, but her child she didn't want to be kicked out of the palace with her, she begged the person to give the child a name, perhaps, so that the child could naturally stay in the palace, Stay with this man who killed the father of the child with his own hands.

The mastiff king, who had always been decisive in killing, hesitated in front of the red paper, and only after half a ring did he lift his pen and write down a word.

The soldier dies for his confidant, and the woman is the one who pleases himself, but he doesn't know whether his brother's death is worth it, and for whom will his daughter dress herself? Perhaps this was the only trace of guilt left in his heart.

So, I became Princess Rong, the most favored child in the heart of the Mastiff King.

I was stunned.

I didn't even know that my mother wasn't the gentle woman who always smiled at me, and I didn't even know that the Mastiff King could be that kind of person.

In the extravagant palace, I confronted the fragile woman aloud, watching her let the tears on her face flow heartbreakingly. I sneered and stared at the man who now had a little more gray hair on his head and thin wrinkles on his forehead, and vented my inner anger loudly: "Do you think you can deceive me for the rest of my life?" ”

I was even angry with the little palace maid who had been with me since I was a child, and watching her crying, I felt a sense of loss in my heart that I had never felt before. It turns out that they are all lying to me, everyone is lying to me, is there no one here who is sincere to me? I even suddenly had the feeling that if this was the case, I might as well just die.

Since then, I have never called that man Father, he is just a liar, he is just a liar who deceived me. I called him the Khan of the Mastiff King with the same deference as the rest of his courtiers, and there was irretrievable alienation in his stiff tone, and it was then that I realized that a man who was so close to you yesterday could be so far away in an instant. I was glad that he had agreed to my request to go with him to the battlefield, I didn't notice the helplessness in his eyes, in my eyes, it was just another trick to win my sympathy, anyway, he had spent his whole life in tricks to deceive people, and I could clearly hear how piercing my sneer was in his eyes that showed deep disappointment, "The Khan should worry about how to face the army of the Gauls for himself." ”

The old lord of Gaul is in charge, the new king has just been established, the country is not stable, the ministers are suspicious, and the people of the whole country still have a trace of fear of the new lord. It stands to reason that he is not vulnerable at all, but the new monarch is a man with great ambitions, and after subduing the ministers who are still waiting and watching with a tough attitude, he sent tens of thousands of troops to fight back against the mastiff army that invaded the border at this time. Although it was an enemy, even when the Mastiff King mentioned the young man who had a relationship, a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyebrows.

However, even if they are young talents, they have suffered a few defeats under the personal command of the mastiff king, if they did not occupy a dangerous terrain, they would have been cut off from the water source and collapsed without a fight, not because the strategy is inferior to others, but the disparity in strength is too great, if I let me say, the mastiff king has not relied on the strength of the 200,000 iron horsemen and now has already become the prisoner of that person.

Perhaps both sides realized that such a stalemate would not be a good thing for either side, and perhaps it would give other people who were willing to take advantage of it, and when the alliance was concluded, I saw for the first time the commander of the enemy camp on the other side.

That was the first time I saw him. Even in the face of the thousands of soldiers under the mastiff king's tent, the man was still standing in the middle of the big tent without humility or arrogance, with a faint smile on his face, and he smiled confidently at the person in the highest position, as if even so many people would not have any obstacles for him to leave here unharmed. But I know that his self-confidence is not just a bluff, since entering the big tent, there is a kind of mockery and sneer in his eyes, almost every general who looks at him can't help but let go of the hand that holds the hilt tightly, and there is not only a kind of surrendering magic in his dark eyes, but also a chilling murderous aura.

But I turned out to be a competitive person, and when I saw him still kneeling in the face of the mastiff king, I couldn't help but have the idea of competing with him. If he wasn't a straw bale, he would have been wary of my slash, right? The first time I couldn't help but want to be an assassin, I had no idea about the serious consequences of such a thing, and at the time, I just thought it was the first good game, at least, he didn't know anything about me and wouldn't lie to me anymore.

But when those guards with vicious eyes rushed over me so murderously, I felt a burst of fear, I shouldn't be afraid of death, why should I be so afraid? The moment I raised the knife, I saw his dark eyes again, the confidence on his face that was different from anyone on the prairie. What is he confident in? Confident that I can't hurt him at all, or confident that he won't even have to hide?

I wanted to stop, but my hand couldn't stop as if it wasn't mine. The sharp blade slammed into the iron armor that covered his wrist, but just as I was about to close my eyes and wait helplessly for the wolf-like guards to plunge the sharp blade into my body, the figure suddenly enveloped me.

What does he want to do? I opened my eyes in confusion, only to find that he was staring at me with a kind of light gaze that only a gentleman on the street would have, and he actually ordered his men to send me into his big tent, and specially warned his men not to do anything to me, I twisted my body in surprise with my arms held, could this lecherous fellow be the one who even the mastiff king had to treat as a guest? How can he look like a scoundrel at all!

But it was in that great tent where no one else had discovered his secrets, his pain and helplessness, and the softness of his eyes as his cool hand brushed the hair that hung down from my forehead, and I knew then that I would never be separated from him again in my life. Sure enough, this hope is ten years.

However, he would do this to me, his red eyes tugging at my hair and asking me what he should do with another woman's child, my consternation, my disbelief, my grievances, all condensed in one sentence: "What will happen to my child?" Should he be sunk into the holy lake and sacrificed to heaven? ”

Although I don't want to, even though I am also the mother of a child, although I know that he doesn't like me at all, he doesn't like me at all, but I still want to gamble with him. I pressed my forehead tightly to the ground, and let his sword-like gaze pass through my body, even if he did hold a long sword around my neck now, I would not flinch again: "Your Majesty! The national teacher said that as long as they never see each other, they will not bring disaster to Gaul, so please keep my child with her, and the concubine will also take her child away and raise Chengren carefully, so that their sisters will never see each other again in this life! ”

"You!" The man who had never believed me glared at me viciously, "Are you trying to threaten me with her child?!" ”

I looked up resolutely, "It was because of me, if she had been His Majesty's first wife, there would not be today." The concubine knows that her sin is unforgivable, but begs His Majesty to let her stay in the palace for the sake of Zhen'er and your own flesh and blood, so that the ministers will not advise even if they want to say more. It's not that I want to threaten Your Majesty with her child, but you have never believed me, if I take my child out of the palace, I'm afraid that I will be intercepted and killed by the people you sent halfway, I know that I will not escape death, but Zhen'er's innocent Majesty can't spare her? What's more, in the past ten years, His Majesty still doesn't understand my surname like that? ”

The red-eyed man looked at me fixedly, as if he wanted to know me again. I was not intimidated by his vicious gaze, as stubborn as I was and still am staring at his gaze.

Is this the person I fall in love with? Why, why does it seem so different now?

The king of Gaul took a heavy breath, and suddenly calmed down, and I seemed to hear a sneer in his heart in an instant, "Well, this time I will rely on you!" The tone was unexpectedly flat, and there was a chill in the familiar blandness.

I forced a laugh, it turned out that I had never entered his heart, and he cared about me only because I was the daughter of the Mastiff King.

With a smile on her face, Wen Po ran out of the warm pavilion with joy, and knelt down: "Congratulations to the king, it's a little princess, yo, don't say it, this little princess looks exactly the same as the eldest princess." ”

His face suddenly turned pale, and I could only smile bitterly, it turned out that what the national teacher said was all true, she really gave birth to a daughter who was exactly like me. Is this fate, is this providence? I don't know, but I do know that I can only leave here with a child who is not my daughter and never see my child again for the rest of my life.

A maid brought over a plate, there was a piece of red paper on the plate, and a large pen full of thick ink, and the palace maid smiled like a flower, "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king, please give the name of the little princess." ”

"Name-giving?" I looked straight at the little plate, and then at the baby hiding in the swaddling clothes, as if I saw another self. The man's eyes were also blazing at me, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, he picked up the pen and hurriedly wrote down a word. For some reason, the smile on the maid's face suddenly stiffened when she saw the heavy pen. The official of the chamberlain had already recorded it beside him, but he shook his head and was puzzled by the word written by the king, and the father-in-law next to him was already loudly proclaiming: "Give the title of the princess of the daughter of Concubine Rou, and her name is Li!" ”

I laughed in my heart, and sure enough, it was really providential. But how can the pain in my heart be so clear that it can be explained? When the palace guard grabbed Zhen'er tightly and pulled her away from me, I couldn't help but want to pounce anymore, still the tall figure, or the flat voice, "You don't want to regret it, do you?" ”

I gritted my teeth and tried to swallow the tears back into my stomach, but no matter how hard I tried, the big drops of tears still fell into the bright red carpet of blood, and there was no trace of it.

A strong hand suddenly held me in the crumbling position, I looked up blankly at the man's sunken eyes, and suddenly smiled, it seems that I am not the only one who stayed awake all night last night.

"Your Majesty!" His voice was not loud but full of anger, and I could even feel the thick killing intent lingering on his body, "Do you really want to drive Rong'er away?" That national teacher is not a good thing, why should you listen to it"

"Protect the King!" The man's voice was not high, but it was even colder, "You should know who you are!" This is my concubine, it's my family affair, you don't need to talk too much! ”

The man who had always called him brother bit his lip and held my hand, but he held me tighter. I couldn't help but think of the madness and despair in his eyes when he stopped me, and now I was someone else's wife. I withdrew my hand quietly, looked at his face that had changed several times, and pulled the corners of my mouth to show the only smile I could give him now, "Prince Protector, you are a subordinate, you should know the rules of foreign ministers." ”

But he still stared at me with those dark and deep eyes, as if he had not heard what I had just said, and before I could react, he took me in his arms, as if he didn't care that the man in the temple was still there.

"Phew!" I heard a loud bang, and when I looked up, I saw that the man's eyes were full of anger, and at his feet, there was a porcelain powder that had fallen to the ground.

"Guard!" I could hear the voices of a few people walking around me, "Get this woman down!" Notify the Ministry of Internal Affairs and send someone to watch her well! Also, the palace guards are also keeping an eye on me, if she runs away, then you don't have to come back to see me! ”

"And you protect the king," a sneer curled into the corner of the man's mouth, "I will forgive you first, and if there is a next time, then don't blame me for ignoring brotherhood!" ”

So, I was locked up in this small courtyard, and the only thing that accompanied me was the poor child Li'er. I suddenly remembered what the Mastiff King had said to me at that time, and now I understand that sometimes it is a kind of happiness not to let anyone know the truth.

Almost every day, that person would bring fresh vegetables, and at first I would taunt him, "The guards in front of the palace would come to such a place to be porters, and my lord is really interested." But the man, as if he hadn't heard anything, put down the dish and left. I shook my head secretly, I had come to this point and I still had the heart to make fun of others, it seemed that I must be somehow abnormal. Looking at the little girl in my arms blinking her eyes as if asking me, I couldn't help but smile, every time I see this child, I think of the child I left in the palace, Zhen'er, I wonder how she is doing now?

Gradually, I unconsciously regarded Li'er as my own child, gradually, I forgot the daughter who had been abandoned by me in the palace, I couldn't even remember her appearance, gradually, Li'er became able to speak, gradually, she fell in love with the gift I brought to her for the first time, a cat called her. Because she said that the cat was as small as her body, it was called Xiaoxiao.

Actually, if I talk about it, it wasn't given to her by me, it was given to her by the palace guard I always hated. The guards who had been hiding in the shadows were ordered to kill anyone who dared to approach the courtyard, and even the guards could only leave their things at the door, and could not peek into the door.

I don't know if he intended it, every time he would bring some small snacks that I couldn't make to Li'er, the child's surname, even the shy and introverted Li'er couldn't help but have a good impression of him, and the last few times he would let him pet his little head like that kitten, and then show a lazy expression as if he was enjoying it.

I was the only one who sensed that something was wrong, and according to the man's orders, even the guards guarding the place were not allowed to have the slightest contact with the princess, and what if Li'er pestered him to go out? For her as she grows up, this yard seems to be getting smaller and smaller, and the small one will touch the wall when she stretches out her hand, and the small one makes her can't help but learn to climb the tree like the little one, and sit for half a day.

But I didn't expect that day to come so soon. Just when the guards brought the food today, I suddenly realized that Xiaoxiao was missing. Originally, she was a lively person, and she usually liked this game, but somehow, I had an ominous premonition in my heart today. Does she really want to

When I rushed out of the door, I happened to see two feathered arrows grazing the tip of Li'er's nose and nailing them to the door frame, and the person who was lying in ambush outside really carried out the man's order meticulously. I was surprised, and I couldn't believe it, you know, Li'er was that woman's child, and they really wanted to kill her?

Later, I learned that there were as many as three groups of people who were ordered to monitor and protect us outside the door. The first group is the subordinates of the general of the kingdom, they are responsible for protection more than surveillance, but every day they report everything that happens here to the king of Gaul in great detail, and the second group is the eyeliner of the king of Gaul, who usually does not show up at all, but is here like a shadow to do the guard and watch. I suppose the Gallic king's order to them was 'kill the woman if she wanted to escape,' and of course he wouldn't want to hurt Li'er. The third group was the subordinates of the Prince of Protectorate, and the order given to them was the opposite, probably to protect me at all costs or if I got rid of Li'er. It's better to say that they're spying on each other than watching us.

I could even hear the hoofs of the prince's men swaggering past the door on horseback, and though I didn't see the young man in the white shirt, I seemed to hear what he had asked me again when he was drunk with a jar of wine at the wedding feast.

"Have you ever liked me?" I was so calm that I was waiting for myself to answer an inconsequential question, "No." ”

I still remember how crazy his smile was and how desperate he was, and he suddenly hugged me tightly in his arms, as if the smell of wine also dissipated instantly with his pursed lips, "I will protect you for the rest of your life, definitely." ”

I thought it was just a drunken joke he told, but I didn't expect him to do that.

The Prince of Protectorate led an army of 100,000 to attack and crush the combined forces of the Mastiff King and the Great Zhou who invaded the border, although he was unwilling, but he had to give a reward to the person who had no more than lost to him. On the top of the hall that day, the ministers were staggered and celebrated in unison, only the young man in a green shirt nodded on one knee: "The minister doesn't want to be rewarded, the minister only needs one person!" ”

The person sitting on the dragon chair squeezed the wine cup in his hand tightly, staring at the person kneeling under the main hall and trying to make a calm appearance, but the cold tone made people shudder as if they were about to freeze all the air in the hall, "Oh? Tell me who do you want? ”

The ministers sitting behind the desk didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that these two people would accidentally hurt their little fish, and even more so, they were already making excuses for themselves to ask to quit.

The man in the green shirt said loudly as if he hadn't noticed anything: "Please ask the king to reward Concubine Rou to his younger brother as a concubine!" ”

Although this is not common, it is not unacceptable, you know, in the most difficult period of the first Gallic king's founding of the country, he rewarded his favorite concubines to those soldiers who fought for him, which is the most popular thing to buy people's hearts and make his subordinates work hard for him, and it is not uncommon in Gallic history. Rewarding concubines was the highest honor for the generals of Gaul.

The man who sat on the highest chair probably never imagined that he would openly ask for Concubine Rou, he probably thought that his brother must have asked for me, and when the king of Gaul looked into the eyes of the man at the bottom of the steps, he saw the same coldness.

"May the king be fulfilled!" The Prince Protector lowered his head first, and those frightened courtiers were also secretly thinking about which side it would be better for them to join. Although the king of Gaul can now be said to be like the middle of the sky, but everyone knows that in the next few years, the person who is too diligent in political affairs will no longer have the prestige in the army, you know, the Gauls are the world on horseback, heavy on military and light on literature, if there is no powerful prince to support outside, maybe Gaul has already been someone else's world, at this time, which is stronger and weaker can not be seen?

Almost immediately, someone came out and knelt down, "Please ask the king's permission." Immediately, a few more followed, and finally everyone under the hall knelt silently to the side of the Prince Protector. The man on the dragon chair stared at the person at the bottom of the steps, and the fingers holding the wine cup gradually turned red, and suddenly, a few drops of wine spilled out, and the eunuch next to him covered his mouth as if he had seen something terrible, but the sharp cry still attracted the attention of the kneeling people of His Highness, "Your Highness, you!" ”

As if he had finally remembered something, when he reacted, he immediately rushed over and broke the hand of the man on the dragon chair who was still holding the fragment of the wine cup, and called out loudly to the doctor.

Only the cyan color seemed so calm and leisurely, and yet so frightening, that it made you want to take a few steps back.

"Is that really what Zhongqing thinks?" The people on the dragon chair seem to want to find a place to rely on from the people below. Knowing that the emperor wanted them to help him, none of the important ministers stood up, and although the few people who were still hesitant at the moment were now shaking like chaff, they saw that none of the colleagues around him who were talking and laughing with him spoke for the emperor, and the legs that originally wanted to move were also retracted when they hadn't stretched out.

"Do you really think so?!" The man who was originally high and beautiful now looks so old and so alone, and the person who could have said life and death now has to rely on his courtiers to make decisions, I am afraid that this will be a heavy blow to the pride of any king. Although most of them expressed their willingness to stand on the side of the protector after talking with the generals of the military last night, when they saw the disappointed gaze of the person sitting on the dragon chair, several people leaning in front still subconsciously shrank back. Of course, they know that it has always been a taboo for kings to form a party and run a private business in the court, but how can that little loyalty in front of the Gallic king, who has been with him for more than ten years, be more real than his own life, you know, the prince of the protector is not only very prestigious in the army, but also has a great power in the court, even if he sends troops to force the palace to ascend the throne immediately, maybe few people oppose it, not to mention that when the prince of the protector was young, because he saw that he was difficult to achieve great things, all the ministers offended him more or less, If you settle accounts with them now, I'm afraid it won't be a matter of dismissal and resuming the army. Besides, now the king of Gaul is less and less of the momentum of the heroic overlord of the past, perhaps the life of the night and night sheng song has already smoothed out his sharp spirit, several high-ranking ministers are worried, and if the king is allowed to act wantonly like this, the century-old inheritance left by the ancestors of Gaul may be ruined on the king who does not want to make progress. In this comparison, on the contrary, the younger brother of the king, as the prince of the country, is more like a person who has done something, relieving disasters and releasing food, resisting foreign enemies, and doing everything impeccably. Now it seems that maybe I used to look away?

The face of the person on the dragon chair became more and more gloomy, since he knew that he had no interest in the daughter of the mastiff king at all, this younger brother was no longer as impetuous and worrying as before, first followed the master of the palace to learn martial arts, and then followed the emperor from the Great Zhou to learn the art of war to set up the formation, in just a few years, he was no longer Wuxia Ameng, just led the troops to beat the mastiff king who had been dominating the grassland for a hundred miles, and drew the river as the boundary, it was the first time that the arrogant mastiff king Khan took the initiative to reconcile with others, Later, the border generals rebelled and rebelled, and he also won it smoothly, and even the great Zhou who was rich and strong in the country and the people sent people to form an alliance, and the ambitious Hui Wang was even more numerous, and there were few defeats, and his henchmen and generals were even more invincible, not at all his own fools can be compared, if he didn't see that he was not the kind of ambitious person, and he had always been respectful in front of himself, he would have let his head stay on his neck for so long? Hmph, the person who was high up retracted his mind, and his face, which had become a little hideous, also softened a little, he knew that now was not the time for him to be alone, if he was loud now, those wall grasses might really fall to the side of the king, this is the last thing he wants to see now, not to mention that now is not the time to tear his face with that brother, not to mention that no one under his command can compare with the king in terms of the talent of soldiers, even if he changes someone else as the commander, Maybe the people under him will make it even worse for him to live in peace.

But as soon as Rou'er thought of the woman who would always wait for her arrival alone in the palace, with a hint of panic like a frightened fawn in her eyes, his face became gloomy again, even if he knew that the protector wanted to openly attack his prestige this time, so that his power could grow further, but his excuse was seamless, and even those who wanted to speak could not find the slightest reason to refute it, not to mention that he was now a hero of Gaul and the greatest hero of Gaul, The emperor's concubines who reward meritorious ministers are based on the ancestral system

At the same time, it is also a good opportunity to buy people's hearts, but the king of Gaul knows that in fact, he does not want Rou'er at all, he wants the woman who has been secretly locked up in an anonymous courtyard by himself, and claims to be dead.

"It seems that the prince really wants my favorite concubine?" The voice of the king of Gaul was faint, and almost the puddle of blood in his hand did not move him for half a point, since his younger brother really wanted to play with him, how could he have a reason not to accompany him? The smile on the face of the Gallic King was even greater, and he seemed to have already thought of a way to deal with this difficult brother, and he couldn't help but sneer in his heart, just as he had taken the hand of the mastiff king's daughter there, and the victor this time must be himself.

"Concubine Rou has a good reputation, is the king afraid that I will bully her?" The man in the green robe no longer had the respect he had just now, and his sharp gaze seemed to penetrate the heart of the person sitting on the dragon chair.

"Are you crazy?" The person sitting on the top glared back unexpectedly, but the man in the green shirt and white clothes was not moved at all, and a little red also dripped from his clenched fist, "I'm crazy!" I was already crazy when I saw you treat Rong'er like that! She believes in you so much, likes you so much, she loves you so much! But what do you do to her? Imprisoning her in the cold palace, even when she gave birth to your daughter, she didn't see you smile even a little bit on her face, do you know what name she gave to your eldest princess? Oh, probably you've forgotten about that, right? You only knew about state affairs all day long, completely left her and her children behind, and finally left her to look for flowers and willows everywhere, and brought that little fox into the palace! Do you know how much the Mastiff King cares about her? If she hadn't covered it up for you every time she wrote letters, would you have survived to this day? I knew that she shouldn't have saved you in front of the mastiff king! What pains me the most is that you would kick her out of the palace so that she can't even see the child! Are you still the king of Gaul!? ””

Through the eyes of his younger brother, who had always been silent, the Gallic King did not expect to see so many things, he smiled coldly, and the threat in his eyes was exposed, "Whether I am a king or not, it is not up to you to decide!" Pay attention to your identity! Prince Protector, don't forget that you are just a little Prince Protector! I can remove you at any time if I want! ”

The man in green shirt didn't get angry but laughed, "Maybe you can't touch me at all now, most of the generals in the court are raised by me, even if you change me, they may not be willing to listen to you, not to mention, the people over there have never been trustworthy people, if you really lock me up, it is estimated that they will kill me tomorrow, although you are a villain, but you are not a faint king, at this time you can still distinguish which is more important." ”

The Gallic King sneered, and the murderous aura in his eyes became heavier, "You think I don't dare to kill you?!" ”

The cold light in the eyes of the man in Tsing Yi flashed, "Do you think I won't be more prepared when I see a villain like you?!" ”

The silence in the hall was terrifying, the air seemed to be frozen as heavy, and the ministers who knelt on the ground retreated to the desk a few times, and a few wanted to run outside the hall while their attention was not on themselves, but they didn't expect that those fierce guards had surrounded the palace gate, looking at the long knife that was scorching in the cold light, a civil official was instantly frightened and lay on the ground. There was a low-ranking military general who wanted to break out, but as soon as he snatched a knife from a nearby guard with brute force, the head with a few small pigtails flew out with a flash of cold light, and the blood spurted out more than half a foot high. A few ministers who were unwilling to stay here but didn't dare to run out looked out, and before they could react, something suddenly flew in, rolled on the ground a few times and landed in a corner, a bold general poked his head out of the case a few times to see what was going on, but the next moment he let out a seeping scream and retreated, almost knocking out several cases behind him together, in the bright light of a candle as thick as an arm, everyone clearly saw that it was a human head that fell in the corner, The closed eyelids were still trembling slightly.

All the ministers were frightened, and except for the confidant general of the Prince of Protectorate, everyone else shrank aside. More than a dozen generals revealed the armor inside their brocade robes, and one of the generals who followed behind the prince immediately drew his sword. Almost at the same time, hundreds of guards burst through the window and hurried in front of the Gallic king, and those guards in uniform armor drew their swords and surrounded the prince in the middle, although the door was almost overcrowded, there was still a steady stream of guards pouring in.
