Section 365 Reward

"For ...... Why do you say this!" The little girl took a half step back, a frightened expression on her face. "He's my brother, he's my brother, he's the only one in my world who is connected by blood. Don't say such terrible things. ”

"No matter how glorious the throne," said Ashrufat. "There can only be one person on it. ”

"But he's my older brother...... I...... I...... The throne has never been a right to me, but a duty. Sometimes I'd rather not be born into an imperial family...... He was originally my elder brother, and it would be more appropriate for him to inherit the throne......" Ashrufat looked at the little girl, and she couldn't help but feel flustered.

"If he dies, it's just his own stupidity that kills him. Ashrufat said in a deep voice. "It was he who chose this path himself, and pushed both you and him into this corner where there is no way out. We could have sat down and negotiated, but he blocked the road himself. He's trying to make you conform with this gesture...... Stupid, arrogant, and selfish behavior. As long as he really sees you as a sister related to blood in his heart, he won't do this kind of action!"

The two men faced each other, half speechless.

"Ashrufat, you ......," the little girl said softly suddenly. "Want to be king?"

"Me?" said Ashrufat, shivering. "Why do you ask?"

"If you want to be king, then I'm ......" her voice stopped, as Ashrufat pressed a finger against her lips, directly stopping him from speaking.

"You shouldn't say that!" said Ashrufat. "Whether it's as a queen, a girl, or a sister. Think of that glorious bloodline in you. ”

"Yes...... I'm Meng Lang. The little girl said softly. She exhaled hard, long breath.

No, it can't be worse than the last time. She told herself in her heart, and then she slowly regained her calm.

"I was in a mess just now. She said. "When I heard the news...... I can't even find anyone to talk to. ”

"What about Rhodia?" asked Ashrufat.

"She's leaving," the little girl said with some gloom. "Same as Jana. ”

It took a moment for Ashrufat to remember the little girl's "former" governess. In fact, he and Jia Na don't have much contact with each other, and they can only be regarded as acquaintances, not understanding. However, it can be seen from the courses she set for the little girl that she may be a good tutor, but she is by no means suitable for the education of kings. At least not for the kind of situation that the little girl is. Later, however, Jana disappeared from Ashrufat's sight - legend has it that she went home and got married. He hadn't seen or heard of Jana since. Of course, Ashrufat never put much effort into finding out about Jana.

"What do you mean to leave?"

"She said she was leaving, and had already resigned from me as a temporary governess. "The little girl's love is a little low. After spending so much time with Rhodia, she did already like this woman quite a bit. In a sense, Rhodia has the talent of a "traitor" because she is very good at rapping, snitching, and giving advice. "To go to a distant place is to marry the past. But I'm sure she has nothing to do with it...... Because of this thing...... She mentioned it to me a long time ago, before you defeated the Chaos Legions. ”

This explanation made it impossible for Ashrufat to pursue any further questions.

"She's still there, but I'm ...... I don't want to bother her anymore. The little girl said. She looked at Ashrufat again.

In fact, it was not the incident itself that really knocked her down - because even the little girl herself admitted in her heart that her brother was actually more suitable to be king than she was (because, unlike everyone else, she did not feel that she had built up many extraordinary achievements to be a queen) - but the process of the event. Everything happened without her knowing and no one asked for her opinion. By the time she knew, things had reached that point of no return.

By analogy, it feels like Byron's coup d'état before. In an instant, everyone around them became enemies, or suddenly disappeared.

If that time she could still believe that she had made no mistakes, that the cause of Yiqiē was Byron's own ambition and desire, this time, she was even a little unable to convince herself.

Ellene, the prime minister she had single-handedly appointed and had been appointed by her, and a group of ministers who had also been promoted and appointed by her (perhaps someone else, but at least she had signed the letter of appointment), had risen to the opposite of her.

If that blow wasn't enough, Skadra, the old man who had been by her side for the past ten years, who had always been dressed in black and had an old-fashioned face, had now left her.

The letter said that Skader, the head of the court, was by his side at the entrance ceremony of Prince Boer—not for a prince (even if he was a crown prince), but for a king. Skadera had made an excuse to leave the little girl, and now he was with Prince Boer, and it was self-evident what his position was.

The little girl is still the little girl, Skadra is still Scardera, but the relationship that they once spent more than ten years building - that trust, that tacit understanding, has collapsed. Even if they meet again, there is no way to go back to the way it used to be.

Thankfully, there's also Ashrufat. Luckily, he would say things like "Even if I'm against everyone, I'm on your side" in front of her. Perhaps, even Ashrufat himself didn't think how much of an impact his words had on the little girl's heart.

"I ......" The little girl actually wanted to ask Essrubat what she should do, and wanted Ashrufat to help her with her idea, but there was a certain self-esteem that made her unable to say this request, so although the words were spoken, they changed their appearance. "Is it a worthy queen?"

"It's more than qualifying. Ashrufat said. "It's excellent. He continued. "If you're not that good, they won't do these things behind your back. This in itself is an indication of the weakness of their hearts...... Like I said, you're on the stronger side. As long as you want to, as long as you are determined, you will definitely win. ”

He stepped forward and put his hand on the little girl's head before she could react. At this moment, he no longer regarded her as a queen, but as the desperate, but still strong little girl in the cabin.

"Actually, it's all up to you. As long as you identify yourself as a queen, as long as you can make the determination to consider the throne the best grave...... If you have this determination, you would rather die than regret it...... I will always fight for you. ”

The little girl was stupid.

As Ashrufat came out, he ran head-on into Rhodia.

As mentioned earlier, the others have been sent away by the little queen, and Rhodia only came after Ashrufat came in. So she's the only one at the door.

Ashrufat just said hello casually and wanted to leave. But before he could take a step, he heard Rhodia's cold voice behind him.

"Aren't you going too far?"

"What's too much?" said Ashrufat, who stopped.

"Let you be a girl to face that...... Sad facts. ”

"There are some decisions that you have to make on your own. Ashrufat replied. "Others can encourage her, they can support her, but they can't help her decide. ”

"It's better to say than to sing. Rhodia sighed. "You don't understand this at all...... What a blow it took to her. Our Grand Master of the Court...... That little girl treats him as an elder like a grandfather or father...... He may have his own reasons for betrayal, but no reason will make me forgive him! Also, the same goes for the old woman...... She brought me a letter, and I am now hesitating whether to give it to our little queen. ”

"You...... What do you know?"

"Skader...... He may have hoped that the rule of the Makremiz family would continue. After all, a queen can mean a transfer of dominance. So he has two choices, one is to let a legitimate and orthodox heir ascend to the throne, and the other is to let someone like you have the ability but no foundation and family background...... It is clear that the former is the highest goal he pursues, and the latter is the choice he has to choose. Although I think he does love our little queen very much, this love cannot change his political position and cannot shake his determination to act. ”

"This kind of ...... I guess it's stubborn. ”

"Ha, stubbornness of mind would have been his strength. Isn't this the principle that you choose your ministers? Look for those who are conservative, who are stubborn, who are loyal to the Macremiz family to the end. What was supposed to be a smart choice has become a ...... Stupid thing. Hey, the so-called unpredictable world is nothing more unpredictable than this. As I say, you should go back to Eagle Falcon City, slaughter all the troublemakers and the prince who doesn't know what to do, and then the country will be quiet. ”

Ashruphat laughed and did not answer.

"Well, you probably don't know, Prince Pol...... No, His Majesty," Rhodia deliberately accentuated the tone of the words "His Majesty the King." "An envoy has been sent. Well, don't get me wrong, he's not here to get trouble, he's not stupid enough to be that stupid. I'm here to reward you. He praised you, Essien, Barranca, and Parry for your achievements, and made you knighted. Of course, it's not just you, there are other officers...... The soldiers also had their own rewards. He fulfilled all the promises made by our little queen before. Especially that promise from Essien, who has now been made a duke. ”
