Chapter 236: Final Intentions
"Report to the Nine Kings, Your Excellency the King has an order, let the Nine Kings return to the palace quickly!" the messenger arrived and immediately reported.
Hearing that, when Xia Jiang came out of the camp, he immediately jumped on the frog king and flew towards the palace almost without thinking.
Under the control of his current demon-devouring power, the explosion of the power of controlling the Frog King's bloodline was already commonplace, and in just a few minutes, he came to the palace of the capital.
When he came to the Taichang Palace, several figures suddenly entered Xia Jiang's sight.
"Xiao Jiu, you came just in time, this woman is the princess of the vulture country, this time she came to fight with her life and ask for the release of her vulture king, what do you have to do?" In the middle of the main hall, Xia Xiong glanced at the woman, and his eyes fell on Xia Jiang.
Xia Jiang couldn't help but be stunned when he heard his father Xia Xiong say this, how could he say that a princess came to ask for it, and she considered whether to release the vulture king, what is the reason?
However, as he walked closer and looked at it, he didn't know what his father thought, but when he saw this person, Xia Jiang himself was stunned, it turned out to be her!
Not only did he know him, but there was also a unique fantasy journey between the two, and it could even be said that if he hadn't met each other, he was afraid that his current cultivation might not have reached such a realm.
It's just that this woman kept her head down, and didn't dare to look up at anyone at all, and all she had in her eyes was a pleading, a plea that looked at death as home, only begging the king of Xia to release her father.
King Xia Xiong saw that Xia Jiang also looked at the other party for a while, so he said: "What? This king should release the vulture king and let this woman resist her fate, even if she walks thousands of miles with this woman in vain, she regards death as home, and just like Xiao Jiu, you once said, a hundred virtues and filial piety come first!"
But even though his father looked strict, Xia Jiang immediately heard it, and he heard that his father's special emphasis on filial piety was just to test his reaction.
It almost made King Xia Xiong feel surprised, or rather, it was not surprising that Xia Jiang still looked so good that he really heard the meaning of his words.
I only heard Xia Jiang say: "The child is brave, I wonder if my father has never considered taking the vulture king's life, and even, pointing to reconciling with them?"
As soon as Xia Jiang's words came out, some of the royal relatives and other officials present were shocked, and they couldn't help but regard Xia Jiang as a genius.
That's right, Xia Xiong did have a little discussion with them before this, and felt that instead of accusing the vulture king and the other party to die endlessly, it was better to wait for the opportunity to shake hands and make peace, but now that the vulture princess has arrived, but Xia Xiong's mind has been integrated, so he has to let Xia Jiang come immediately to see what this son really thinks.
I couldn't have imagined that this Xia Jiang was so good, and I heard that he actually had such thoughts after listening to his words.
"Xiao Jiu, you have a keen reaction and can know your father's intentions, so please tell me, after this battle between the two sides, will the vulture king have the sincerity to reconcile with my Xia Kingdom and release his previous suspicions?"
As soon as these words came out, the kneeling vulture princess immediately kowtowed with great gratitude, and said urgently: "Please forgive the little girl for being rude, my father actually thought about reconciling with your country, but he was only sowing discord by some people, so he made a mistake in a moment of confusion, and he didn't really want to be inseparable from the Xia country, please be aware of it!"
"Hmmm......"
Xia Jiang looked at the kowtowing vulture princess, and suddenly felt a little unbearable in his heart, and he couldn't wait to step forward and help the other party up.
When Xia Xiong heard this, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Xia Jiang even more expectantly, hinting at his statement.
Things are already in front of him, but it is conceivable how Xia Jiang has any unexpected statement, and it can even be said that even if the situation is reversed today, his father will inevitably kill the vulture king, and he Xia Jiang will even come forward to stop it and intercede for this vulture princess.
"Of course, the child hopes that the two countries will be reconciled, and the misunderstanding that has been solved for thousands of years has been completely resolved, and in terms of the terrain and people's conditions, the reconciliation between our two countries is a matter of good and harmless, harmony and win-win......"
Speaking of this, Xia Jiang continued to add: "Just as my father mentioned, filial piety comes first, it is rare for a vulture princess to be so filial, if you hurt his life because of this, it is absolutely unacceptable, not only that, but we should also reward her, and let the vulture kingdom see the sincerity of our Xia Kingdom!"
Almost at the moment when Xia Jiang said these words, the body of the kneeling girl suddenly trembled, raised her head, tears slid down her cheeks, and immediately turned around with great gratitude, and was about to thank the prince, but the corner of her eyes immediately saw the prince's face.
It was also at the moment when he saw this face that the scenes in his mind suddenly came to mind - "It's really him!" The vulture princess's body trembled again, but at this moment she looked at the prince in front of her a little boldly.
There are gratitude, emotion, surprise, confusion, and worry in his eyes...... Xia Jiang saw that he didn't know how much love there was in those eyes at this moment, as if he wanted to put all his thoughts in his life in these eyes, look at him, and give him a good look!
And in the silence of the two sides looking at each other, the scenes of the past also appeared in front of the two of them.
"Xia Jiang, you are Xia Jiang?"
"Have you heard of me too?"
"I didn't expect you to be, but it feels a little worse than I imagined!"
"By the way, I don't know if you are?"
"Hehe, it doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I'm Sister Yun'er's neighbor. ”
"By the way, I'm going to rest in this damp place today, it's not early now, how about you?"
"Yes, I definitely have to rest here today, it's easy to find here, and I found that there are wild fruits in this area, of course I have to step on it a little more!"
"That's right, little sister, I don't know if you brought the treasure house, can you let me stay overnight?"
"What little sister, I think you're the little brother, younger than me, aren't you?"
......
"Is it delicious?"
"Uh-huh, delicious, so delicious......"
"Xia Jiang, I think this split-body frog is so pitiful, its vitality has aged like this, but it can't escape the fate of being hunted and abused. ”
"Xia Jiang, where are we going?"
"Hmph, I'm sorry, you're still so domineering and picking so many berries alone, I'm embarrassed to tell my senior sister about my harvest these days when I go back!"
"Xia Jiang, I heard that you are the ninth prince of Xia Jiang, but are you really only sixteen years old?
"Xia Jiang, are we in an underground space......? Or is it not in the Behemoth Jungle?"
......
"By the way, I don't know your name yet......"
"I ......"
......
For Xia Jiang, although there are not many places to explore in this world, it is not very few, but there are very few pictures that can be remembered in his heart, and the days spent with this girl are vivid.
However, in contrast, Xia Jiang didn't know that for the daughter in front of her, that experience had been deeply hidden in her heart, and it was destined to be an experience that she could never forget in this life.
That boy, the boy who had experienced a fantastic journey with her in the jungle of giant beasts, and warmly accompanied her for several days and nights, the boy who was destined to never forget in this life......
And now, the teenager appeared in front of her again, and... Moreover......
The mood in the girl's heart at this moment is really indescribable, she can only let the unknown objects in the corners of her eyes slide down, look up at each other, at least you can see some more of those pictures that used to be!
"Ahem......"
On the top of the main hall, Xia Xiong was overjoyed when he heard Xia Jiang's words, and even half-jokingly said: "Xiao Jiu, even now you are almost seventeen or eighteen years old, for my Xia country boy, it is already the age of marriage, I think in order to show the true sincerity of my Xia country, it is better to marry you with this vulture princess, so that it is a double happiness, and everyone is happy, presumably the vulture king will never have any doubts, I don't know how Xiao Jiu will ?...... it."
Quiescence.
Just after Xia Jiang said this, almost everyone in the hall suddenly restrained their breathing, and all looked at Xia Jiang in the hall.
But obviously, even though Xia Jiang thought of many ideas from his father, he never expected that he would take a big step forward and directly want him, the most valued prince, to marry the vulture princess!
Xia Jiang was indeed surprised at this time, he couldn't help but look at his father and wanted to see what he thought, but at this glance, he saw that the serious eyes all revealed his expectations for this matter.
"Father's ......"
After a moment of silence, feeling that his father really wanted him to marry the vulture princess, Xia Jiang knew that there was something that had to be said immediately, and he had to say it in front of the vulture princess.
"Xiao Jiu, if there is anything unspeakable, just say it bluntly, as long as this matter can be done, my father will definitely do his best to solve your worries!"
Xia Jiang was speechless when he heard this, and said: "Father doesn't know, the child has made a private agreement with Xia Yu for life before this, but he was shackled by all things and failed to officially get married!" Speaking of this, Xia Jiang couldn't help but feel ashamed, these days have almost never stopped, and things have always come one after another.
However, after hearing Xia Jiang's words, Xia Xiong laughed, and said without any surprise: "I thought it was a big deal, isn't it your marriage with Xia Yu, what's so difficult about this, my father can prepare for you now, and the marriage will be done tomorrow, and then marry the vulture princess, how about it?"
I thought that his father would be surprised, and at least secretly reprimanded him in his words for how to choose the daughter of the traitorous Xia Xiao as his wife, but he never expected Xia Xiong to react like this, which really made Xia Jiang feel a little overwhelmed.
However, even so, there are some things that Xia Jiang has to say: "Son, thank your father first, but marriage is not a child's play! Although my father is sincere, I don't want to say whether the vulture king agrees, but she also has her own freedom to marry in the daughter of a princess of a country, and this matter must not be forced to ......."
It is undeniable that Xia Jiang has already revealed in this remark that he does have a good impression of this "vulture princess".
Sure enough, it was only after Xia Jiang said these words that Xia Xiong realized his mistake and hurriedly apologized: "Xiao Jiu, you are reasonable, my father does not respect the wishes of the vulture king and the princess here, so please tell the vulture king face to face!"
As he spoke, he suddenly waved his hand and gestured to the guards on the side.
It was only with Xia Jiang's wave of his hand that the vulture king was quickly taken out by a guard somewhere in the palace, and it turned out to be prepared for a long time, at most, the vulture king looked a little depressed, but he didn't know about it in advance, and he didn't hear this.
But even so, Xia Jiang finally knew that his father had done so much, and his ultimate intention was to let him marry the vulture princess and make the two countries reconcile, and I am afraid that whether the vulture princess took the initiative to come over or not would not affect the implementation of this plan!
