Chapter 291: No Choice
Gray Meng Sijia sat at the head of the bed, buttoning the buttons of her shirt, and the moans of the woman behind her made the corners of his mouth curl slightly. He freed his busy hand and pinched it again on the woman's delicate hill.
"And ......" the woman squinted her eyes and pouted like a dream.
Gray Meng Sijia poked her head out, took the cherry at the top of the hill, and bit it gently, and suddenly the woman let out another loud scream.
"It's not too early, I still have military affairs, you also get up quickly, I will arrange a fast horse to send you back, don't let them suspect." β
Fila got out of the bed and reached out to pick up the Tsing Yi handed to her by Gray Mengsijia, she smiled and said, "No need, let's save a horse for you!
Gray Meng Sijia smiled: "You are so good. β
Fira threw a trace of autumn water to Gray Meng Sijia, and said with a smile: "It's not that you feed it well, the more you feed it, the more powerful I will be." β
What a!
Gray Meng Sijia wanted to think so, but she still reached out kindly, pinched her face on the face, and said, "Do it according to the plan, and feed you well when it's done!"
Gray Meng Sijia looked at Fira's departing back, and her eyes flashed with a vicious light.
Thank you for kicking off the curtain for me, the show is finally about to begin.
......
Amagi Castle, the main building.
Hirol walked slowly down the corridor with Zhao Yan and Na Manzi, who had been disguised by him, although Zhao Yan wanted to take a closer look at the difference between the center of this ancient city and Ai Sakura City. But under the dull gaze of the guards on both sides, he still chose to settle down.
Zhao Yan finally saw the old man he was looking forward to seeing, and he was quietly reclining on the huge treasure chair. Despite living a privileged life, he is still skinny, with sunken eyes and turbulent waves on his forehead. The gorgeous costumes could not hide his vicissitudes, Zhao Yan looked at this old man carefully, and there was no trace of his past heroism and the dignity of the city lord from his body. And it was like a skeleton wrapped in this coat, slumped in a chair without any appearance.
His eyes were closed, but he did not seem to be asleep, so that Jerol, who had barely stood in front of him, asked softly, "O Hierro! β
My father always spoke to him very kindly, which was nothing more than a very happy thing for a prince like Jerol. But when he looked at his father, he couldn't help but feel sad for his father.
My father has always been proud of having two sons, and although they are insignificant compared to other city lords, kings, generals, and the like, this is the pride of his life.
But......
This pride was about to be shattered, and Hirol had already planned that after Zhao Yan left, he would immediately tell his father the secret and discuss a way to deal with Gray Meng Sijia.
"Yes, Father. β
Hirol bowed deeply to his father, and Zhao Yan and Namanzi behind him also bent down.
Hirol looked around, waved his hand, and said, "Go out, all of you!"
They were Hatandis's closest soldiers, and no one could command them, including the prince.
Seeing that Jerol was like this, Hatandis slowly straightened up, but the old man was not confused, knowing that Jerol had something important to say to him, and said to his soldiers: "Go down first, and no one is allowed to come in." β
The soldiers gathered in the center of the hall from both sides, bowed slightly to Hatandis, and then walked out.
In Hatandis's memory, Hierol never seemed to be so mysterious, he was not very interested in military affairs, and there were no important matters or secrets to talk to him alone.
When it was Gray Mengsijia, he often broke everyone apart to talk about important military affairs with himself.
I don't know what the situation of the sword rule is now, and how many people have been killed in the battle!
Hatandis glanced at the two men behind Jerol, and felt that the young man's eyes were a little harsh.
Hatandis said, "Hierro, since there is a secret that must be separated, what about these two people?"
Hirol lowered her head and said, "Father, these two people are the secrets I want to bring you. β
"Oh?" Hatandis, slightly surprised, glanced to the young man's side, and Namanzi's face echoed in his mind for a long time. Suddenly it occurred to me that Jerol was going to recruit a concubine for me?
However, when I think about it, this is not in line with Jerol's character, and often this kind of thing is done for him by his youngest son, Gray Mengsijia.
Still, he couldn't help but look back and forth on Namanzi's face.
Zhao Yanxin said: "Sure enough, as the rumors say, the old pervert!"
Hatandis pointed at the two of them, his eyes still looking at Namanzi, and said, "What are their secrets?"
Zhao Yan said: "Let me say it myself!"
Jerol nodded at Zhao Yan, who took a step forward and took off his cloak, revealing a rare black hair.
"My dear Uncle Hatandis, let me see you. β
Hearing this, Hatandis pulled back his gaze wandering on Namanzi's face and looked at Zhao Yan in slight surprise. He had never seen this young man in his memory, but his appearance, his black hair, always felt as if he had heard someone describe it.
Hatandis said lightly: "You call me uncle?
Zhao Yan smiled and said, "No, no, no." I call you uncle because of my wife, but she often says your name in front of me, and says that when she was younger, you used to play with her!"
Hatandis became more and more curious, and said, "Who is your wife?"
Zhao Yan said softly: "Love Yingsha." β
Love Sakura!
Hatandis suddenly sat up straight, as if he had suddenly come to his senses, his eyes stared at Zhao Yan tightly, and asked, "Ai Yingteng's daughter, Ai Yingsha's princess?"
"Exactly. β
Syllable!
Hatandis's bony hand hit the armrest of the big chair, and he looked at Zhao Yanzhi and worried about whether his hand would be broken.
"Are you Yan, the lord of Sakura Castle?"
"Exactly. Zhao Yan smiled.
Syllable!
Hatandis slapped it on the armrest again, his face suddenly fell, and he shouted: "You are so bold, you dare to come here to find me, don't you want to die? Believe it or not, I will be able to break you into ten thousand pieces in no time!"
Unwilling to alarm the guards outside, Hirol took a step forward and said, "Father, please calm your anger. β
Hatandis glanced at Hirol suspiciously, and said, "What the hell is going on?"
"Uncle Hatandis, I'm your junior, I admire you so much, but it seems that you don't like me very much!" Zhao Yan knew that Yerol was not easy to answer, so he hurriedly said.
Hum!
Hatandis's head was slightly bruised, and he said, "I welcome you, why should I welcome you, a demon?"
Zhao Yan still kept smiling and said, "Although I am not the great angel, I am not the demon of heresy, right?"
"Isn't it a demonic act that you broke the peace of the two sister cities, you left the friendship of the two city lords behind, and you launched an invasion recklessly?"
"The reason for the war is usually only made clear by the initiator! I do not deny the fact that I started the war, but Uncle Hatandis, I have not abandoned the friendship between my father-in-law and you! Otherwise, how could I call you uncle? Xiaosha often comes to see you with me!"
Hatandis's mood calmed down a little, but he still didn't look at Zhao Yan with any good eyes, and said: "It's a shame that she still remembers my uncle, but she allows her husband to do anything wrong, which will only make Ai Yingteng unable to close her eyes." β
Zhao Yan said: "It's too serious for you to say this, I am the lord of a city, and my father-in-law handed over Ai Sakura City to me, so naturally he has a reason." I'm sure my father-in-law will think I'm doing the right thing. β
"Nonsense!

Zhao Yan didn't expect Hatandis to still have a strong temper, his tone was sharper, and he said, "Uncle Hatandis, I didn't come from afar to listen to your accusations, don't you want to solve the problem?"
Hatandis said, "What tricks do you want to play?"
Zhao Yan said: "I have to say, your misunderstanding of me is too big. But I believe that you, as the uncle of the lord of a city...... It doesn't affect the whole city because of the emotions of the individual, right?"
Seeing that Hatandis was slightly stunned, Zhao Yan continued: "The issue of the sword rule, I think we should talk about it." β
Hearing this, Hatandis seemed to understand something, and sneered: "What? Is it that the sword can't be defeated? Hahaha! It must be like this, it must be impossible to beat it, that's why you came to beg me, right?"
Hahaha!
Zhao Yan suddenly burst into a wild laugh, laughing unscrupulously.
Hatandis glared at Zhao Yan and said, "What are you laughing at?"
Zhao Yan put his hands behind his back and said in an old-fashioned manner: "I laugh at Uncle You're old and naΓ―ve. β
Ignoring Hatandis's stunned expression, Zhao Yan said: "It's only a matter of time before you want to take down the sword, right! Maybe you can't take it in a month, two months." But what about further apost? Are you going to compare food with us, or are your armies better suited to a protracted war than we are, or are you richer than we are?"
Zhao Yan smiled, walked in front of Hatandis, and said comfortably: "The war on the Aya Continent continues, and the country of war is closely attached to your west. Let's not talk about this, but what will happen in two months? Hmph! God knows. I wonder what the situation would be if an army appeared inexplicably in the Celestial City at this time, even if it was an army of only a thousand people. Is it a rewriting of history, or is it Uncle Hatandis who has no choice but to abandon the Celestial City and comically defend the sword?"
Hatandis's face sank quickly, and Zhao Yan obviously said what was on his mind.
Zhao Yan continued: "Sometimes I'm really worried about Uncle Hatandis! I have a total of five armies under my command, two of which are in Jianze, and the other three are stationed in the east, south, and west of Aiying City. Despite the fact that the sword is fighting to the death, the interior of Aizakura Castle is still prosperous as always, and it is as if people do whatever they need to do, as if people don't know that there is a war ahead. β
Zhao Yan looked at Hatandis and said, "And Tiancheng is different, a few days ago, I was just eating something in the tavern, and I met a hooligan bully composed of hundreds of people. It was as if many people had closed their doors for fear of being burned by the flames of war on the front line. Everyone is panicking, and many people have already packed up their baggage, this scene is really chilling!"
Hatandis finally couldn't help but speak, "Are you here to show off to me?"
"Of course not! Didn't I say it at the beginning? Although I provoked a war, I absolutely did not abandon your feelings with your father-in-law! You see, haven't I always called you uncle? I came here at the risk of my life this time because of the love between my father-in-law and Xiaosha and your uncle!"
"I don't want Uncle Hatandis's inheritance to be plundered by outsiders!"
Zhao Yan took a step closer to Hatandis and said, "If you think about it carefully, now your army is in the Sword Rule, and the Battle of the Sword Rule has been fought for more than a month, and it has spread on the Aya Continent. For Ai Sakura Castle in the south, Amagi may be a heavy defense. But as far as the other three parties are concerned, the Heavenly City is an empty city that is naked and defenseless! Let's not talk about the Mei Kingdom for the time being, let's just say that in the past six months, the northeast side of the Heavenly City seems to be flowing with many people who have perished after the invasion of the Mei Kingdom! If they are combined, their strength will be extremely terrifying! Moreover, in my impression, there are probably quite a few forces that covet the Heavenly City!"
"I'm thinking that at this moment, the spies of the various forces must have gone back to report the situation in the Celestial City to their masters. If this protracted battle continues, I'm afraid that Uncle Hatandis, this throne of yours will have to be replaced!"
Jerol stepped forward and said, "Father, what the Yan City Lord said makes sense!
After a long pause, Hatandis looked at Zhao Yan and said, "You are the one who started this war, it is easy to stop this war, as long as you withdraw from the army, it will be over?
Zhao Yan said coldly: "It's a pity, I won't retreat, I want a sword." β
Very surprised, Hatandis did not get angry, but still smiled coldly, and said: "You have obtained the sword rule, it will not be difficult to take the Heavenly City again, and when the time comes, the Heavenly City will not change hands in the same way?
Zhao Yan glanced at Yerol, turned to Hatandis and said, "A few days ago, you were right, but now it's not all right. The Heavenly City will indeed change hands, and your throne will indeed change, but not someone else, but your son. β
Hatandis was startled and said, "What do you mean?"
Zhao Yan smiled and said, "That's all I have to say, and your son will talk about the rest with you personally! β
Zhao Yan glanced at Namanzi, who stepped forward and handed Hatandis a booklet.
Zhao Yan said: "If you give up the sword, the number above will definitely make up for the losses brought to you by this war." And my dear Uncle Hatandis, you will be able to live a few more quiet days. β
"I'm waiting for good news from you, I'm looking forward to seeing Sakura's family and Tosi's family keep this sincere friendship forever. β
Zhao Yan patted Yerol on the shoulder, and then left with Namanzi. When he turned around, he took another deep look at Hatandis's face, leaving him with a stunned expression.
After all, the identity is special, the two of them did not dare to stay in the castle for long, and left quickly under the leadership of the guards.
It wasn't until they were out of the sight of the guards and the two of them mingled in the crowd that Namanzi said, "Hatandis seems to have been moved by what you said." β
Zhao Yan said: "It doesn't matter to me whether he is happy or not. β
"Why? If he doesn't want to, aren't we falling short?"
"He wouldn't be unwilling. β
"Why?"
The corners of Zhao Yan's mouth played slightly, and he said with a smile: "Because he didn't have a choice, you know, Yerol is his only son." β
Zhao Yan's smile suddenly became sinister, and he said, "The most terrifying thing is that his other precious son is not only not his own, but also the evil seed born of his woman stealing people. I'm not worried that Hatandis won't agree to surrender now, but I'm worried that the old thing will vomit blood and die immediately after learning about it. β
"That's ...... We're really falling short, hahaha!"
With a burst of laughter, Zhao Yan quickened his pace.
Namanzi glared at Zhao Yan's back, hurriedly followed, and said, "Yan, you have become more evil than before!
Hahaha!
The two of them got closer and closer to the city gate, but they didn't notice that in the crowd behind them, there were four figures closely following.
......
Tick tock!
It wasn't the sound of the water, and there wasn't any water source in the main palace.
And this sound can only be understood as a deep silence in the soul.
Deathly silence.
It's been a long time since Hatandis has risen from his chair in such a short time, as if the blood blisters on his ass had been suddenly punctured, and he quickly left the chair.
The father and son looked at each other silently, and Jerol opened his heart to Hatandis's scrutiny of his eyes.
"Hierol, do you know what you're talking about?"
"I know, when I know the truth of the matter, my heart hurts too!"
"This is not the truth of the matter, this is a conspiracy, it is Yan's conspiracy!"
Hierol glanced at Hatandis, his father's eyes were not full of confidence, and he said: "Father, now there are only our father and son, will Hierro deceive your father?
Yerol knew what his father was suspicious of, and he was suspecting that this was a conspiracy that Jerol and Zhao Yan had persuaded him to use to get rid of Gray Meng Sijia and let Jerol ascend to the throne of the city lord smoothly. But Jerol knew in his heart that although his father had flashed this thought for a moment, he would never doubt it in such a real way.
Although they are royal father and son, the father-son relationship between the prince of Yerol and the lord of the city of Hatandis is completely different from other royal families.
Hatandis was old and had a son, and he loved Jerol, a god-given treasure. What is surprising is that although Hirol grew up under the care of his father and was nurtured by the royal family, he did not seem to be contaminated with the atmosphere of the royal family. Politics, intrigue, and interests seem to have nothing to do with him, and he never makes trouble for Hatandis, nor does he use his status as a prince and his father's rights to oppress people.
Hatandis knew Hirol very well, and although he was very good, he was more suitable than Jerol to inherit the position of city lord. But the person Hathandis trusts the most is his eldest son.
His eyes were clean, clean and there was not a single blemish in them.
"But......" Hatandis's voice trembled a little, and his sunken eyes looked even more hollow, "but how could Marulian lie to me!
Above the palace, a low voice slowly fell.
"Hahaha! It's ridiculous, do you think Marulian really loves you old thing?"
The father and son were shocked.
