Chapter 44: Childish

"The son-in-law Helian will see his father, long live his father, long live long live."

He crossed his hands in his arms, knelt down in a bow, and with a cold word of getting up, he straightened up and looked up.

I haven't seen him for many years, and the person on the throne doesn't seem to have changed much, and his expression is still so solemn and solemn, not close to people.

The golden eyes similar to Helian Duel were as indifferent as ever, his tall body was covered by a dark royal robe, his face was not old, but there were a few more gray hairs between his temples.

He said casually: "King Xiao has worked hard outside the war all these years, giving thousands of taels of gold, 10,000 taels of silver, 1,000 acres of land, and 100 beauties." Apohan is also meritorious, and he is rewarded with King Xiao. ”

"Thank you, Father."

"Ah...... Well...... Xie Wang. ”

Apohan's good mood was swept away in an instant, and on the way here, His Highness specially told him not to make any trouble, but now it really made him angry.

His Royal Highness has been fighting bloodily outside for so many years, and how many times have he stepped into the Yama Hall with one foot, and as a result, he has obtained this little thing that is not painful.

And this group of princes who can only play with their tongues in the court, but one by one they entered the knighthood and were crowned, and the king was too partial.

The more Apohan thought about it, the more it was not like that, and his heart turned sideways, and he said, "Your Majesty, we still think ......."

"Father, the son has something to ask for." Helian suddenly interrupted Apohan's words, choked half of his words in his throat, and told him to say no, not to say no.

Fortunately, King Chiyuan didn't care, and said to Helian: "If you have any requests, let's hear them." ”

Helian duel knelt directly on the ground with the wolf king's military seal in his hand, and said word by word: "Father, my son's ministers have been fighting for many years, and they are already physically and mentally exhausted. ”

As soon as Helian decided to say this, it was like a thunderbolt falling on the main hall, and all the courtiers were in an uproar instantly, and even the indifferent face of the King of Chiyuan showed a surprise that could not be concealed.

In fact, even if Helian never said it, he would find a reason that Helian would not refuse to take back the golden seal of the Wolf King Army, but he didn't expect that Helian would take the initiative to hand over the military power.

"Father, the eldest brother is working hard, it is not a good thing to let him rest and rest, please let my father do it."

Seeing the situation, the king of Rui, Helianqu, pleaded that for both those in power and those vying for power, those who hold heavy armies are always a threat.

"Father, the king, will be fulfilled."

"The ministers also have the courage to ask the king to be fulfilled."

"The minister is also ......"

"Father, the king, will be fulfilled."

“……”

There were many princes and ministers who played one after another, and the anxious Apohan was like an ant on a hot pot, rubbing his hands and feet, eager to directly pick Helian up from the ground, and even the speed of speech became faster than usual.

"I said, Your Highness, this joke can't be made, when did you make such a big decision, why don't we know at all? Tell the king, you're joking! ”

"Presumptuous! What a joke on top of the Wolf Temple! ”

Helian reprimanded Apohan with a side face, and then said, "Father, please allow your son." ”

There was silence in the main hall, and King Chiyuan finally spoke: "Since you have this heart, the lonely king will be yours." ”

As he spoke, the personal guard next to the throne took the golden seal from Helian Duel's hand.

"Thank you for your father's success."

Helian Du stood up and retreated to the side, he had no military power, and he was not favored, he was no threat to those princes who wanted to fight for power, and King Rui, who had always regarded Helian Du as a big trouble, had no scruples, and joked when he opened his mouth: "I want to come to the eldest brother to fight for half a life, and when I return, I want to live a happy life in the arms of a beauty?" ”

Helian raised his eyebrows and asked, "Fourth brother, what do you mean?" ”

King Rui got carried away and replied without thinking about it: "Ha...... Didn't my father just reward the eldest brother with 100 beauties? Moreover, I heard that the eldest brother brought back the city lord of Zelu from thousands of miles away, and he was pampered all the way, and he said that he was not addicted to Gentle Township? ”

"Fourth brother! It's nonsense! ”

Helian Fu, the third prince born to King Rui's mother, hurriedly stopped, but saw that the king's eagle-like sharp gaze had fallen on King Rui.

I heard Helian ask unhurriedly: "General Apohan and I rushed back to the royal capital from the frontier last night, I don't know where the fourth brother learned about the city lord of Zelu?" ”

Helian Duel's question made Queen Rui shudder unconsciously, no one in this court knows, the king has always been very concerned about the alliance between the prince and the minister, so he has not yet established a prince.

And the prince's interference in politics is his counter-scale, and today's King Rui just said a word, revealing that he had planted eyeliner in the wolf king's army.

The Wolf King Army is the most important force in Chi Yuan, even if it is the foundation of Chi Yuan's country, it is no exaggeration, whether it is a civilian or a royal noble, if the family has entered the Wolf King Army, it is the supreme glory of the ancestors.

And King Rui's hand dared to stretch out so long, even Helian Fu didn't dare to say a word more.

Helian Qu's legs were weak, and he knelt on the ground tremblingly, "Father, the son has not done anything out of the ordinary, and his father has not forgiven his sins!! ”

"Since you have done nothing wrong, what sin does the Lone King want to forgive you?"

King Chiyuan played with the military seal, still unable to see the joy and anger on his face, as if he did not take this matter to heart, and said in such a calm and powerful tone: "Since King Rui is so concerned about the wolf king's army, after the enthronement ceremony of the co-lord of the eight cities is held in three days, you will set off to the frontier to supervise the army, King Teng has been in the frontier for five years, and it is time to come back." ”

"Father...... Father, king, son, and retainer are just ......"

"What? You want to resist the decree!? ”

"Erchen doesn't dare, Erchen ...... Receiving ......"

King Chiyuan glanced at Helian Qu coldly, and was about to retreat from the dynasty to leave, who knew what he suddenly thought, turned to Helian and said: "King Xiao, King Gu wants to see the daughter of the Nasi family you brought back, and today you will arrange for her to enter the palace to face the saint." ”

This order caught Helian off guard, and by the time he tried to find a reason to refuse, King Chiyuan had already left the main hall.

During the time when he sent someone to pick up Si Nanyue's arrival, Helian Du stood on the high platform of the palace city, looking down at the scenery outside the city, and he had been thinking about why his father wanted to summon Si Nanyue.

And the strange thing is that when Zelu City surrendered, his father personally sent people to stop him from slaughtering Zelu City, but he had never heard of anything that his father had to do with Zelu City?

As he was thinking, he saw a group of men galloping from a distance, the young man at the head was no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, and his appearance was slightly different from that of the people of Chiyuan.

The young man had a high nose and deep eyes, full of exotic style, his complexion was extremely white, and his blue eyes were exactly the same as those of his mother, like the clear water of the lake on the top of the mountain, clean and clear, and beautiful not like a mortal thing.

The forehead is tied with a silver silk forehead inlaid with white jade and bluestone, and the long brown and red hair that curls slightly rises with the wind, and the purple dress is even more luxurious.

"It's him ......"

Five years ago, when Helian went out to fight, he rushed from the frontier to Wangcheng to receive the seal, and he had a relationship with the young man.

Just looking at the young man's unusual appearance, Helian decided to recognize that it was his father's favorite young son, Prince An-Helian En.

Not to mention that this young man should have been the firstborn who should have fallen, just look at his slave and the mother of the Hu people, according to the law of Chiyuan, his father should not have given him a national surname.

And his father's reward for him did not stop there, on the day of Helian's full moon, his father not only granted amnesty to the world, but also directly canonized him as a prince.

rewarded him with the most fertile land in Chiyuan, and in the face of such love from his father, countless courtiers at that time couldn't look at it.

After all, in Chiyuan, a firstborn child like this, who is no different from an illegitimate child, is not qualified to inherit his father's family name and assets, but because the king of Chiyuan is too protective of their mother and son, he even abolished this decree for them.

This incident caused an uproar at the time, and several old ministers of the former dynasty were forced to die, but because the king of Chiyuan had made up his mind, he even sent several of the most popular courtiers directly to the frontier, and gradually, no one objected.

Fortunately, the mother and son are not pampered, and for the time being, they are not a threat.

Helian saw the young man dismount from the city gate, and as soon as he gained a foothold, he ran like a bird freed to the palace.

Also right...... Helian took his eyes off the boy, for whom the palace was a cage, but for his father's favorite child, it was the home he most thought about day and night.

Just as Helian Du thought, the young man ran to the harem without being clear, but the servants on the road did not dare to stop him.

Helian walked briskly, and when he ran around a corner, the oncoming little palace maid accidentally bumped into him, and the warm water in her hand sprinkled the young man's body.

The palace maid hurriedly knelt on the ground and hurriedly begged: "Prince An forgives the sin, the slave didn't mean it." ”

"It's okay, get up!"

Helian didn't stop, and of course he didn't blame the palace maid, he ran around her, and the guards around him persuaded: "Your Highness, the weather is cold, you go and change your clothes first, and then go to see the king and his wife." ”

"Out of the way." The young man wiped the drops of water on his face with his sleeve, and his sky-blue eyes were full of smiles, "It snowed heavily a few days ago, and we were delayed a lot of time on the road, so my father should be in a hurry." ”

The young man's physical strength was very good, and after running for so long, his breathing was still even and steady, and soon the two of them arrived outside the study, and he didn't even knock on the door, he pushed the door and broke in.

At this time, the King of Chiyuan had already changed out of the dark royal robe, and replaced it with a dark blue loose clothes, he looked serious, and he crouched in front of the desk without knowing what was written.

Hearing that someone had recklessly barged in, he was about to get angry, but when he looked at the child he hadn't seen for a long time, the anger in his heart disappeared instantly, and he was replaced by joy.

I saw Helian running straight over, hugged him tightly and said, "Father, the child is back!" ”

King Chiyuan's body stiffened, and then the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes were squeezed together, and he patted the young man's broad shoulder hard, "Your kid has finally arrived home, but have you been to see your mother and little sister?" ”

"Not yet."

The young man let go of the King of Chiyuan and said coquettishly like a child who had not yet grown up: "Father, these excerpts will be corrected, if my father goes with me, my mother will be happier." ”
