Chapter Seventy-Two: The Contest at the Banquet (I)
The square in front of the Council Hall of the Palace of the Kingdom of Yongyi.
Finn looked at his verbal father coldly, and then said lightly: "Father, are you satisfied with my birthday gift?"
King Yongyi has forgotten the fountain of life of the great prince, and no matter who is more important, one year of life and ten years of life, no matter who is more important.
King Yongyi walked to Deming's side, grabbed the red pill from the air and swallowed it in one gulp, as if he was afraid that someone else would snatch it away.
In just a few seconds, a strong stench began to appear on King Yongyi's body, and the people around him covered their noses because of their bad face, and the face of King Yongyi decreased in full view of everyone.
King Yongyi said with satisfaction: "I'll go clean up first, feel free!" and then left the square surrounded by guards.
A large group of nobles stared at Fein as if they wanted to capture him and torture him until the alchemist was questioned.
Finn laughed, laughing as if there was some sadness and some mockery at the same time.
Gree sat on the stage, his eyes about to pop out, Emily patted her brother, and then comforted softly, "Brother, it's okay, it's just a small mistake." β
Gree calmed his heart, and then said to Emily with a smile on his face, "Emily, it would be nice if you weren't my sister." β
Emily's face showed a hint of redness, and the nobles in the audience were stunned.
Finn haughtily returned to his seat, now like a fighting that had defeated his opponent, his head raised and his eyes full of disdain.
After a while, the king came back with a change of clothes, and his face was like a peach blossom, as if today was his happiest day.
King Yongyi saw that Finn was still sitting in the audience, and he shouted loudly, "Finn, hurry up!"
Finn knelt down on one knee in his seat and said, "Father, please forgive me for not being able to grant your request. β
King Yongyi was a little embarrassed, he thought for a moment and said, "Finn, I was a little sorry for you brothers in the past, I apologize. But I really want you to sit with me right now. β
"Hypocrisy!" This is Chen Le's evaluation of this sentence, Chen Le has already guessed that if the value of what Fern took out today could not exceed that of Gree to take a bottle of the Fountain of Life, then his ending would definitely be the same as Feizi.
Finn reluctantly walked over to King Valian's table, and then next to Alain. Alan smiled at Finn and said, "Second prince, we haven't seen each other for a long time, think about the last time we met was when you were an infant. Now that you've grown to such a good place, it's really gratifying. β
Fein could disrespect his father, but he had to respect the old man, who had spent his life guarding the north, repelled countless orc attacks, and had been so conscientious that he had not yet taken a wife. (According to the regulations of the Kingdom of Yongyi, all official positions of army commander and above are not allowed to marry wives and have children)
Finn bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Alain." β
Alain stroked his gray beard and said, "You deserve it, so that the next time I get something good, I'll bring you some." It's kind of compensation for you all these years. β
Finn said respectfully, "No, no!"
Alain laughed, "It must be, isn't it, Your Majesty." β
King Yongyi said embarrassedly: "Yes, yes, yes, it is necessary, I will also give something to compensate!"
Finn smiled on the surface, but in fact, he was already full of disdain for King Yongyi in his heart. Can the so-called compensation compensate for the life of one's mother?
King Yongyi thought for a moment and said, "Finn, I will hand over the south to you, you must protect the place you are guarding, especially the Storm Fortress!"
Finn finally felt a little relieved in his heart, and it seemed that tonight's harvest was greater than expected.
The tree is very popular, Chen Le still knows this truth, and now a large group of nobles only know that Fern has a relationship with him, but no one knows what the relationship has reached. No, maybe one person knows.
Chen Le looked at Deming, his eyes were full of doubts, logically speaking, Deming, as King Yongyi's personal guard, should also know the information that King Yongyi knew, but why did King Yongyi's performance just now not fit the script.
Deming seemed to notice Chen Le's gaze, and he smiled and returned to normal.
Chen Le felt that he had to figure this out. Otherwise, it will be like a poisonous snake that could bite itself at any time.
When King Yongyi saw that the nobles had finished offering their gifts, he laughed and said, "Everyone, I think we can have something else tonight!"
After hearing this, the nobles felt that there might be a good show to watch, and King Yongyi smiled and said, "Come on, set up the ring!"
"Knock knock!" the sound of gears rang out in the seemingly empty square.
A large circular hole appeared in the place where the offering had just been made, and the radius of the large hole was thirty meters.
A red ring rose from the hole, and King Yongyi shouted, "Now I announce the rules! This ring is your battlefield!
A large group of sons and buddies cheered, the Yongyi Kingdom was martial, and every nobleman was piled up with military exploits, as the children of those nobles, how could the strength be poor?
King Yongyi watched the atmosphere of the scene ignite, and then shouted, "There are two rewards!
The sons and buddies in the audience all pricked up their ears, for fear that others would mishear something.
King Yongyi seemed to hold his breath, and then yelled, "The first one is that whoever can stand on the stage lasts to become Emily's fiancΓ©!"
"Wow!" There was an uproar in the audience, and the eyes of those boys and buddies began to turn a little red, and they were destined to bleed tonight.
Emily was a little confused, she couldn't believe that her father would make such an arrangement, she looked at King Yongyi with puzzled and puzzled eyes, and King Yongyi said with a kind face: "Emily, you are old enough, it's time to get married, and now you are still staying at home, what kind of system are you going to be?" β
Tears welled up in the corners of Emily's eyes as she lay down on the table. Gree let out a long sigh, he was a little helpless, this matter was no longer something he could change. King Yongyi comforted: "Emily, this is my father's sake for your good, don't cry." β
Emily cried even more sadly, and King Yongyi let out a long sigh, and then yelled at the audience: "The second reward is that you can ask this king to do something that does not violate the laws of the kingdom!"
"Wow!" The promotion and knighthood are in front of you, and the nobles in the audience are eagerly looking at their children, today's generals are really a little rich.
King Yongyi raised his hands, and then slapped them down: "Quiet, now I'll announce the rules!"
"First, this competition is in the form of a ring fight, but considering the problem of physical strength, I decided that I can only fight three times in a row and rest for half an hour. β
"Second, this contest must no longer be played against opponents who have already admitted defeat! Violators will be disqualified, and then convicted according to the circumstances!"
"Third, because this contest is a real battle, there may be some casualties, and it is now announced that the families of the deceased shall not retaliate against the winner!"
"Fourth, the weapons and equipment for this competition are provided by the royal family, and people will carry the equipment!"
A large group of strong men came over with a large pile of boxes. The box is made of wood, and there is no trace of pattern on the outside.
King Yongyi casually opened a box. Then he picked up an iron sword and said, "Since you are all the pillars of the kingdom, the lethality of this weapon and equipment is very small, so there are generally no major casualties. I hope you can accept the mercy, and if you don't know it, you will be the robes that will fight together in the future. Do you understand what I say, the future of the kingdom!"
"Got it!"
King Yongyi shouted: "Now go and get the weapons and equipment yourself, by the way, again, it is forbidden to drink medicine without permission during the competition!"
Chen Le also walked to the chests full of weapons and armor, he was for nothing else, it was the promise of the King of Bravery.
The big war is about to break out, what kind of strength will those young men who are pregnant with spring show today? Chen Le sneered and looked at the flowers growing in the greenhouse, and then turned his gaze at King Yongyi. The last one was delivered as promised
