A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 133. Chapter 133

The matter finally came to an end, and everyone on the square had dispersed under orders and returned to their posts.

However, many people were still in a state of shock. They informed others about the shocking news, which caused the news to spread rapidly throughout the palace.

As the key figure in this shocking news, Gallan was still stunned during the time he was brought to the Chamber by his brother Camos from the square.

On the innermost platform of the spacious chamber, there was a huge throne carved from a whole piece of green malachite.

The white jade steps that came to the throne were only three steps short, so short that they seemed to be able to step up in two steps. However, under the whole world, only one person dared to step on the snow-white stone steps in the middle and walk before the throne.

In the past, when Garland came to the chamber occasionally, even if King Camos loved him very much, he could only sit on the seat closest to King Camos under the steps, and the same was true for Huimos.

The military commanders and civilian officials who are eligible to enter the chamber are separated by a large distance from the steps, sitting or standing, with a solemn expression on both sides of the chamber.

And this time, after entering the chamber, when Gallan followed King Camos to the white jade steps, and subconsciously walked to the seat on the side, he was suddenly caught by King Camos. Up the wrist.

He looked at King Camos suspiciously, and King Camos raised his eyebrows at him, and then, holding his hand like this, as if he was holding a child who was just learning to walk, he turned to take him to the steps Go up.

In an instant, countless lights shot from behind him.

The gazes were almost substantive one by one, like countless sharp arrows poking on his back.

Garlan felt that his back was almost burnt by those people.

And this time, finally let him wake up, who had been in a daze.

He took a step back almost instinctively, and at exactly this moment Camos was holding his hand and walking up the steps.

As a result, their arms stretched straight in the middle.

The scene of the one pulling forward and the other shrinking back suddenly confuses the various generals and civilians who have different minds.

What are King Camos and Prince Garland doing?

They all thought so wonderingly in their hearts.

But given the majesty of King Camos, no one dared to ask this question for the time being.

Feeling the hand he was holding was shrinking vigorously, King Camos turned his head and looked at Garlan suspiciously.

“What’s the matter? Gallan.”

He said, “Come and follow me.”

As the crown prince, although he could not sit on the malachite throne, he was already qualified to step up the steps and stand beside the throne.

When Camos was the prince, he always stood by his father and king.

Standing at the position next to the throne, you can look down at the people under the steps from a high place.

This is a symbol and has great significance.

This is the change in status and position.

The prince is half a king.

From then on, I was qualified to look down on everyone.

“No…that, Brother Wang.”

The boy’s eyes rolled round and round.

“I think it would be too hasty for you to decide on such a big thing as Prince Li.”

He said, “I don’t think I have the qualifications yet… and, for such a big matter, which concerns the entire Aaron Landis business, the position of the crown prince must be agreed by everyone. In case anyone has an opinion, That’s not great, is it?”

With a thick eyebrow raised, King Camos swept his gaze to the generals and civilians below.

“Why, do you have any comments on my decision?”

King Camos’s vigorous voice echoed in the chamber, and the generals in the row on the right knelt down on one knee without saying a word.

They knelt on the ground, with one hand on their chests, and lowered their heads loyally.

“Your decision is my will to wait.”

They answered all the same.

For these generals, King Camos’ words are absolute.

The position of the great Lion King in the army is unique and unshakable.

They will never disobey the king’s orders.

Garlan looked at the group of kneeling generals and felt heartbroken.

You know, in previous lives, these generals were almost all hardcore supporters of Heimos.

The reason is very simple, because Heymos’s military exploits are outstanding, but he stayed in the palace even the royal city has not taken a step, let alone on the battlefield, so the generals are naturally more willing to follow Heymos.

And this life, although it is much better than previous lives, but I have fought the battle of Tozes City, and this is still won by Huimos’ rescue. In contrast, he was much worse than Huimos, who had made great achievements in the Northland, and even became known as the “Black Knight” to the fright of the Gestors.

He thought that these military attachés and generals would support Huimos as in previous lives and persuade King Camos not to make him the crown prince.

Who knows… the generals are all loyal brothers of King Camos.

It seemed that they would definitely not violate Brother Wang’s words.

But Gallan didn’t know.

Although this group of generals did have a more favorable impression of Heimos, who also led the conquest, the events of Tozes City also gave them a sense of identification with Gallan.

A prince who will not abandon the city and flee from the city in the face of pirate attacks, of course they will not feel repelled.

Therefore, the gap in their goodwill towards the two princes is not big enough to make them willing to violate King Kamos for it.

The military commander’s side was gone, and Garlan cast his expectant gaze to the civilian official’s side.

After all, compared with the generals who obey King Camos, the minds of the civilian officials are much more complicated, with different minds, and there will definitely be people who are not willing to become crown princes by themselves.

Especially that one.

The young man looked at the chief director with a look of expectation.

This time, he has lost his face severely, and it can be regarded as a hatred.

Gallan felt that in any case, the Chief Secretary could not support himself to become the crown prince.

Wouldn’t he be in trouble to let a prince who had had a grudge against him ascend to the throne?

Living up to Garlan’s expectation, the Chief Secretary hesitated for a long time before speaking with a slight hesitation.

However, it was not the hard sentence that Gallan was looking forward to,’Prince Gallan is not suitable to be the crown prince’, but rather a very euphemistic sentence.

“King Camos, the establishment of the crown prince is a major event. It has only been a month. Is it too hasty?”

The Chief Secretary peeped into King Camos’s face and added another sentence.

“I think it’s better to be cautious about this matter. At least we have to prepare for about half a year.” He said tentatively, “After all, Prince Garlan is still young, and it would be inevitable to be made the crown prince now…”

Gallan stood there without saying a word, but nodded desperately at the Chief Secretary in his heart.

To be right, he is still young and not an adult, so he is not qualified to be crowned prince.

Go on, keep talking a little more.

However, while Gallan was still cheering for the Chief Secretary so silently in the bottom of his heart, the right secretary over there suddenly spoke.

“Chief Director, you are not right.”

Before King Camos could speak, the right secretary interrupted the Chief Secretary’s words.

As an old courtier who can most guess what King Camos wants, although most of the time he has been pretending to be lack of energy on many things recently, he doesn’t express much opinion, but now King Camos is here, he can’t Pretending to be deaf and dumb.

“Although Prince Garland is still young, he has far surpassed his peers in all aspects. He is called the’wise prince’ by the people of the royal city. It can be seen that he is very much loved by the people. .”

“Furthermore, the battle in Tozes City also proved that Prince Garlan’s heart is strong enough to support the prince’s responsibility.”

“And the wit and composure he showed just now deeply impressed me.”

When the Chief Secretary spoke, King Camos showed a trace of unhappiness on his face.

And when the right secretary was talking about Gallan’s good things, his face suddenly turned from cloudy to clear, and he nodded his head and revealed a satisfied expression without concealment.

The Chief Secretary originally wanted to say something to refute the right secretary, but he caught a glimpse of King Camos’s face from the corner of his eyes, and then forcibly swallowed what he had just reached his mouth.

He closed his mouth, lowered his eyes, and sat there silently.

Is this to admit defeat?

Seeing that the Chief Secretary shut up and gave up, Garlan hated iron and steel.

It’s too weak, too disappointing my expectations of you.

Seeing that you both fought me and Hoymos so badly not long ago, why are you so embarrassed now?

It seems that you still have to rely on yourself.

Thinking helplessly in his heart, Garlan raised his head to look at Camos.

“Brother Wang, I don’t think I am qualified to be a crown prince.” He said, “Huimos is better than me, and he has made more achievements than me. Even this battle of Tozes is in the final analysis. Saved me, I don’t think that is my record.”

“You made me the crown prince, but ignored him, so… unfair.”

Gallan shook his head and withdrew the hand held by Camos.

“So, please take back that sentence just now.” He repeated again, “because I am not qualified to be a crown prince.”

Gallan’s words made Camos stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Gallan would refuse to be the crown prince.

He couldn’t help saying: “Gallan, how come you feel that you are not qualified?”

“King Camos, I think I can understand the reason for Prince Garland’s refusal.”

Sixiang You looked at this side, and suddenly interrupted.

“Prince Garland is a fair and upright person. He feels that this is unfair to Prince Huimos. He doesn’t want to be made a prince because of your preference. He doesn’t want to win without fighting like he is now. I think , He should want to get everyone’s approval upright.”

“So, not only did he reject you, but he also praised you Prince Huimos for his achievements without shy.”

He admired, “King Camos, this makes people feel the broad and noble heart of Prince Garland even more.”

“That’s it.”

King Camos suddenly realized.

He said with joy and pride, “Of course, my brother Wang is so noble.”

Garland: “…………”

Exhausted.

What’s the matter with this rightist.

At first I lied over there and pretended to be dead, I didn’t even bother to hum.

Now as soon as Brother Wang came back, he was not politely chasing after him–Garlan knew well that the reason why this old rightist praised him so much was entirely for the favor of Brother King Camos.

He was just showing his favor in front of Brother Wang.

… But I don’t need such a gesture now!

You Sixiang, can you change time and another way to show me okay?

Even if it is to give me a pile of gold and silver treasures so that I have enough money to run away–

“Brother Wang, I really don’t have…”

Gallan still wanted to work hard.

But before he finished speaking, Xie Muer, who had been following Camos silently, suddenly stood up and bowed in salute.

He said: “As the Chief Secretary said, Prince Garland is actually a little immature in all aspects.”

Garlan breathed a sigh of relief.

Well, there is no need for him to speak by himself.

“However, even so, he is already qualified enough to be the crown prince.”

After Garlan breathed a sigh of relief, the priest of Shamash, who took a big turn, said, he also took a look at Garlan.

“Only in the future, we must strengthen the study of all aspects of affairs.”

Garland: “…”

Xiemur, what’s the matter with your eager eyes?

I tell you, I will not promise you to extend the teaching time for me, and I will never promise!

Uh…wait.

Xiemur is the priest of Shamash, and an important figure in the power of Shamash Temple.

As soon as he said these few words, I am afraid that everyone has already determined that Shamash’s temple forces are their own supporters.

…………

…Xiemu’er, can’t you not cheat me?

Gallan felt that he was not tired, but panicked.

“Gallan, you don’t need to be humble, and don’t be too humble.”

Camos held Garlan’s shoulder in one hand, his eyes burning.

“You are better than anyone else.”

“No, Brother Wang, I’m actually not good enough.”

The boy is still in his final dying struggle.

“I really… By the way, Prince Li still needs to be approved by the Royal Knights, doesn’t it?”

According to the rules of the Aaron Landis royal family in the past, all princes must first go to the royal knights to experience, and only recognized princes are eligible to become crown princes.

King Camos was taken aback.

There was indeed such a rule, he didn’t think of it for a while.

Thinking this way, he subconsciously glanced at Sa Ge, the commander of the Royal Knights.

At the beginning, he spent a lot of effort to get the approval of this stodgy fellow.

And he also knew that Sa Ge values force very much. With Garlan’s existing force, I am afraid… it is difficult to get the approval of Sa Ge.

But if he forcibly ordered Sarge to approve Gallan as a king, he would not die with his stone-like stubborn character.

King Camos pondered.

Gallan was greatly relieved.

All right.

As long as there is this excuse, the crisis will be temporarily lifted.

Just as Garlan breathed a sigh of relief again, the leader of Sa Ge, who stood beside him in silence like a stone statue, suddenly turned sideways and bowed his head in salute to King Camos.

The bad foreboding made Garlan’s heart chuckle for a moment, and then he heard the head of Sago speak.

“King Camos, Prince Garland is an excellent successor.”

Sage said, “If you have decided to make him the crown prince, the royal knights will be as loyal to him as they are to you.”

He finished speaking without emotion, then stood back blankly and continued to make his own stone statue.

Garland: “…………”

He felt that he felt the malice of the whole world at this moment.

Garland: …I seem to have seen the smile of death on me.
