The spring was bright and the sun was warm, but Lampari XIII bathed in such comfortable sunshine, but did not feel even the slightest warmth as usual, but still felt cold, and couldn't help but tighten the thick plush blanket wrapped around his body.

Seeing Lampari XIII's movements, Demar on the side couldn't help but have a trace of gloom on his face.

His Majesty's body was getting worse and worse day by day, but no matter how Delma persuaded him, he never wanted to relax for a moment, and every day he still approved official documents as before, dealing with all kinds of annoying state affairs, which seemed to be no different from every day he had been king for more than ten years.

Oh, there is still a difference, during this period of time, the number of court meetings held by His Majesty was much less than before, and even if it was held occasionally, it did not last long.

Despite the strict orders issued by King Lampari XIII, and Delmar, as the head of the palace, also made a series of precautions for the people in the palace, the news of His Majesty's illness still inevitably spread.

Now the news has spread throughout the nobles of Anweimar City, causing all the nobles in Anvimar City to be in turmoil.

The current Anweimar City looks as calm and prosperous as ever on the surface, but under this calm, there is actually an undercurrent already surging.

Everyone was watching, watching what was going on with His Majesty's condition, watching him...... Will it die.

"Ahem—" Lampari XIII suddenly coughed lightly.

Delmar's heart tightened, and he hurriedly leaned in, only to see Lampari XIII let go of the hand covering his mouth. The palms of his hands were a shocking dark red.

"Your Majesty—" Demar's face suddenly turned miserable. Called. But he choked up and couldn't speak.

Lampari XIII looked at the large blood stain on his palm, but instead smiled, slowly took a silk scarf from his hand, wiped his hands, and said to Dema: "Okay, don't cry like a woman, you know I don't like to see this." ”

Delmar wiped her eyes vigorously and mumbled. He took a deep breath and tried to force himself to calm down, but looking at Lampari XIII's face, which had been so emaciated by his illness that he could barely see any flesh, he found that he could not calm down anyway.

Seeing the change in the expression on Delmar's face, Lampari XIII frowned: "Don't just cry, listen carefully to me." ”

"Huh?" Delma was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses, and quickly stood up straight, staring at Lampari XIII.

He had been following Lampari XIII for more than a decade and he knew it well. Whenever His Majesty the King showed such a demeanor, it was when he was ready to give an extremely important order.

"First. Send orders to Eric, Miham, and Sevigny, and summon them back to me. ”

Delmar mumbled and nodded.

Immediately thinking that this was most likely the king's majesty thinking that his time was running out, and he wanted to shout to his three children to explain the future, and suddenly another sadness struck, and his eyes blurred instantly.

"Don't cry and cry, listen to my orders, and make no mistakes!" cried Lampari XIII in a low voice.

Delmar hurriedly wiped her eyes again, took a long breath, and her expression was calm.

"Your Majesty, please give the order. ”

"Well, that's like words. Lampari XIII nodded in satisfaction. "Second, give an order to the city of Sewell, ordering the Count of Satsuma to strengthen the border defense and prevent the army of the Kingdom of Sark from invading the northeastern border of the Kingdom of Guò at any time. ”

Demar was stunned: "Now that the Sark Kingdom has been overwhelmed by the Zhenbei Army, how can it be possible to divide the energy to invade?"

Lampari XIII snorted coldly: "Eric, that idiot can't see it, can't you see it?If the Kingdom of Sark had been defeated so easily, I would have cleaned them up more than ten years ago." ”

Delmar was silent.

Although he also doubted whether the Sark Kingdom was acting, and deliberately lured His Royal Highness Prince Eric to lead the Zhenbei Army deep into the Sark Kingdom, but from the news from the front, the Zhenbei Army had caused great damage to the Greedy Wolf Legion of the Sark Kingdom, and even invaded the Sark Kingdom itself.

Even if the Sark Kingdom wants to act, it won't be so realistic, right?

If you continue to act, you will have to pay for yourself.

"Third, order the Second Army of the Kingdom Garrison Corps to go north, enter the Northwest Province, and temporarily take over the defense of the Northwest Province. ”

Delmar was taken aback by Lampari XIII's third order.

"Your Majesty, how can this be done? If the Second Army also leaves, then won't there be only the palace guards and the first army of the garrison corps left in Anweimar City? This strength ...... What if something happens to Anweimar?"

"Do you think anything will happen to Anvimar?" said Lampari XIII, looking at Delmar with deep meaning.

"Of course, in case you ......" Delmar stopped suddenly.

"If I die, what might happen to Anvimar?" Lampari XIII sneered. "It's not for sure, it's for sure. There was little point in leaving the Second Army behind, and the safety of the Northwest Province was more important than that. ”

"Your Majesty, do you just have no faith in Prince Eric?" Delmar seemed a little strange.

"I'm not worried about the guys behind him. Lampari XIII shook his head. "If they can really fully support the royal family's crusade against the Kingdom of Sark, why do they need to wait until now. After all, Eric's kid was just a tool for them. ”

The expression on Delmar's face was even more odd.

"Your Majesty, since you know this, then why have you been unwilling to make up your mind? If you had decided on the heir to the throne in advance, I don't think Prince Eric would have been instigated by those nobles to do these things, right?"

Lampari XIII sighed deeply and turned his head to look northwest, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"Actually, I have long confirmed that of the three of them, only Severny is the most suitable to take over the throne. But Sevigny's heart is too soft, and if he wants to ascend to the throne, he must be hard-hearted. The reason why I didn't make a decision for a long time. Just to give Eric a chance. But he ...... I was so disappointed. ”

Delmar was silent for a long time. sighed lightly: "Actually...... If you could explain this to them clearly, I don't think it would have come to this point. ”

"Are you blaming me?" Lampari XIII glanced at Delmar and chuckled, "It seems that it is only before death that people are most likely to tell the truth and hear the truth." Delmar, you've been with me for so many years. This is the first time I have said such a direct word to my face. ”

Delma smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Anyway, I'm dying, so what else dare not be said." ”

"Oh?" said Lampari XIII with some surprise. "Why are you dying? Aren't you still in good health?"

De Mar looked at Lampari XIII with a complicated look in his eyes: "Because I have already decided, as long as Your Majesty is gone, I will follow you to go with you." ”

Lampari XIII's eyes flickered, staring at Delmar in silence for a long time, revealing a slight smile.

"Well, it's nice to have someone to keep you company. ”

Delmar laughed too. After a moment, he asked Lampari XIII in a relaxed tone, "Your Majesty." In that case, this time you have summoned the two princes and their Royal Highnesses the princess Severny back at the same time, presumably the heir to the throne has already been decided, and is ready to announce it?"

"Hmm. Perhaps because of Delmar's statement just now, Lampari XIII did not hide anything this time, and nodded very simply.

"That'...... If I'm not mistaken, it should be Her Royal Highness Severny who will take over the throne?" Delmar asked again.

Lampari XIII sighed lightly: "Eric has disappointed me too much, Miham has always been incompetent, and Sevigny has a soft-hearted heart, but there is absolutely no problem in terms of ability." And...... She also has a supporter that I value very much, and that is Xu Yi. ”

Hearing that Lampari XIII actually mentioned the name "Xu Yi" at this time, Delmar couldn't help but be stunned.

"Your Majesty, is this Xu Yi so worthy of your attention?"

"Of course. Lampari XIII said: "If Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce he founded can appear ten years in advance, I will fully support him without reservation, because I am sure that as long as he and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce have enough support, he may be able to change the entire Lampari Kingdom, and even the entire continent." But alas, the timing of his appearance was too bad. I can only hope for ...... He was able to help Severny well and slowly change the kingdom in the future. ”

"If Xu Yi knew that Your Majesty actually valued him so much, I think he would be deeply honored. ”

"Not necessarily, this kid is very modest on the surface, but I can see that he is very arrogant. Don't forget, the old guys in the last noble council wanted to strip him of his nobility, and he could have thrown away a straw and didn't care at all. It's a pity I wasn't there, otherwise it would have been very interesting to see the expressions of those old guys. Haha......"

He had just laughed twice, but Lampari XIII coughed violently again.

"Majesty, ...... again Would you like to drink some medicine?" Delmar asked.

Lampari XIII frowned, hesitated, and nodded: "Okay, take it." ”

Delmar turned to the side cabinet and reached inside.

When her fingers touched one of the bottles in the cupboard, a look of extreme complexity flashed across Delmar's face, and she immediately regained her composure.

Taking out the medicine bottle and mixing it with the medicine, Delmar handed it to Lampari XIII with the potion.

Seeing Lampari XIII bow his head and prepare to drink the medicine, Delma suddenly opened his mouth and shouted: "Your Majesty xià ......"

Lampari XIII looked up in amazement: "What?"

Delmar squeezed out a very reluctant smile: "It's nothing, it's just ...... Be careful ...... scalding"

Lampari XIII shook his head with a smile, tested it with his mouth, and drank it all in one gulp.

However, as soon as the medicine was in his stomach, Lampari XIII's expression suddenly changed, his face became extremely painful, and then turned into extreme anger, and he stared at Delmar with wide eyes, but he couldn't say a word.

Delmar sighed and reached out to put her hand on Lampari XIII's shoulder, pushing him back to the bed.

"Your Majesty, you can have a good rest. ”

Looking at Lampari XIII's angry eyes, Delmar tilted his head slightly, avoiding his gaze.

"Your Majesty, I know you must have a lot of questions in your mind. I can only say sorry to you, and when this is over, I will fulfill my promise to you and come to that world to accompany you. No matter what you want to do to me, I will not resist anything. ”

Lampari XIII suddenly opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood, spraying Delmar directly in the face.

The next moment, he fell stiffly on the bed, and there was no more sound.

Looking at Lampari XIII's eyes that were still wide, and his face was full of unwillingness and anger, Delmar sighed deeply, reached out to smooth Lampari XIII's eyes, and pulled a rope beside the bed.

Moments later, a burly figure stepped into the palace of Lampari XIII.

"Mr. Delmar, hard work. ”

Delma looked at the visitor expressionlessly: "Duke Stark, you are the hardest. (To be continued......)
