A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 231. Chapter 231

The tip of the ear is very hot.

Gallan thought it must be because of the setting sun.

He stretched out his hand to press on the chest of the man whose hands encircled him, and tried to push it away.

It stands to reason that with his strength, it is impossible to push Huimos even a bit.

However, as soon as he pushed, Huimos followed his strength and retreated his body, pressing on the rocks on both sides of him as if ringing his hands and raising them, and it was close to his ears and pours a scorching breath and low. The lips of the muttered words also left.

The aggressive aura surrounding him just now receded, making Garlan feel less uncomfortable.

However, this seems to have always been the case.

Although Huimos has always unabashedly announced his admiration to him, he has been approaching step by step, and he has hardly branded his own traces in his whole body and the trajectory of his life.

However, this man has never done anything to force him.

Obviously the power is much stronger than him, but as long as he gives a little signal to stop, Heymos will immediately stop and take a step back following his request.

Like just now…

Gallan raised his head, and Huimos, who was standing in front of him, looked down at him.

The golden-red eyes are like sunset clouds on the horizon, and they are full of softness that completely contradicts the sharp corners of the eyes.

The dark forehead fell from the man’s eyes, and was gently moved by the wind.

Garlan saw that the night-like hair was dotted with a few small white petals, the petals were delicate and lovely, and Garlan couldn’t help laughing.

He was still sitting on the rock, smiling and raising his hand, beckoning to Hiemos.

Huimos looked at Garlan, then leaned down again.

When he squatted down, the angle of his sight changed from looking down to looking up.

He didn’t care about it, his eyes just stared at Garlan brightly, which looked like a big black wolf dog squatting obediently in front of his master.

Gallan stretched out his hand and took the tiny petals on Heimos’ forehead.

But as soon as Huimos squatted down, he saw the top of Huimos’ head. Not only was the forehead stained with petals, but there were even more petals on the top of the head, and even a few pieces fell into the hair.

The white points are especially conspicuous in the dark hair.

The boy subconsciously stretched out his hand and flicked Hiemos’ hair a few times.

Hiemos’ black hair was very pliable and smooth, and when he flicked it, it spread out, and the white petals in the hair naturally fell down.

Several petals fell on the black shoulder armor.

The soft and boneless small white petals and the cold and hard black armor are obviously on the extreme sides, and they seem to be extremely harmonious at this moment, giving people an indescribable beauty.

“All right.”

Satisfied, he patted the head of Hiemos, who was squatting in front of him again.

Then, he couldn’t help but stab his brain. If he didn’t do anything, he would just let Huimos go out with the petals of his head so that everyone could see it, not knowing how many people would be shocked.

And just as he was laughing and filling the scene in his heart, Heimos, who had been steadily watching him, suddenly stretched out his hand.

The brown fingers stretched straight to Garlan’s face and took off a petal hidden among the blond hair scattered around the corner of his eyes.

Looking at the petals, Gallan was taken aback. He thought he had already photographed the petals on his hair and shoulders when he was washing his face by the pool just now.

Unexpectedly, there is still a piece hidden here.

Probably because of the water, the small petal was a little wet, soft and pitifully pinched between the knuckles of the finger.

Garlan glanced at it and didn’t care too much. He thought that Huimos would just throw it away just like him.

But Huimos glanced at him, suddenly lowered his head, and licked his fingertips.

The red tongue curls the wet petals on the fingertips into the lips.

Unexpectedly, Gallan had no time to stop it.

He looked at Huimos in amazement, only to feel that the tips of his ears became more and more hot, almost burning.

He was glad that his long hair covered his ears and made them invisible, so he forced his composure, pretending to be nonchalant, and looked away from Huimos as if he didn’t care at all.

Then, he braced with both hands, jumped, and jumped quickly from the sitting rock back to the ground.

“Okay, it’s time to go back.”

He said, his tone was light, and it sounded calm.

Then he stepped over Hiemos on his own, and walked forward.

The wind that Gallan brought forward when he walked forward raised the long hair that fell on his shoulders, and the long golden hair softly passed in front of Huimos’s eyes.

And the moment the blond was raised, the ears covered by the long hair were exposed to the air.

Huimos clearly saw the red tip of the young man’s ears protruding from his blond hair.

His lips rose.

However, he didn’t say anything, smiled and followed the pace of Garlan who was walking forward quickly.

…………

……………………

He returned to his palace first, replaced the dark armor, and briefly cleaned his body before Hiemos came to Garland’s palace again.

Although he became the king of Aaron Landis, Gallan still lived in the palace where he lived since childhood.

Throughout the ages, the new king will build a new palace in the palace, or completely renovate his own palace to make it more beautiful and magnificent.

However, Gallan did not seem to have any plans to build a new residence or renovate the current residence.

Therefore, this palace is still extremely familiar to Huimos.

Walking inside the palace, he saw Garlan sitting cross-legged on the cool topaz stone platform, with snow-like white cloth spreading on it, and by the way the edge of the stone platform was hanging down.

Dozens of delicacies and delicacies were placed on it, exuding a tempting aroma, and the sitting teenager was stuffing a small piece of honey-coated barbecue into his mouth.

The chief female officer stood by, and her slender fingers took out the ice cubes from the jade plate on the side, and gently put them into the glass cup containing the light yellow juice.

She looked at the boy with a smile, her eyes were gentle, obviously the boy’s good appetite made her very happy. From time to time, she would turn her head and order the maid behind her to cut the slightly larger piece of meat, sprinkle it with a little sauce, or peel off the shell of the shrimp.

The atmosphere is very harmonious and comfortable.

And the only thing that didn’t fit in with it was a certain high priest who had a black face and a blank expression on the side.

Xie Muer stood beside him without saying a word, but stared at Garlan coldly with his eyes as sharp as a sword.

It makes people feel chills from the bottom of their hearts.

If it were changed to someone else, Xie Muer would have been staring at him like this, let alone continue to eat.

However, Garlan, who was the target of Xiemuer’s stare, still sat steadily, eating food one bite after another without paying attention, and occasionally drinking a sip of cold juice.

No matter how you look at it, he looks at ease.

As a result, the Lord High Priest, who had an ugly face, stared at his young king even more fiercely.

That murderous appearance made people really suspect that he wanted to kill the king with his eyes.

If he hadn’t always kept the courtesy, perhaps he could not restrain himself from committing the following crimes now.

Huimos coughed lightly, then walked quickly over without speaking, just sitting on the topaz platform as if he were in his own palace, just opposite Gallan.

Then he reached out and picked up a slice of bread smeared with thick cheese, randomly sandwiched a piece of browned meat, and ate it unceremoniously.

Everyone has long been accustomed to Heimos’s casual behavior. It stands to reason that being so wanton in front of the king is a rude behavior.

But Gallan didn’t mind such formal things.

The high priest who has always followed the ritual system is naturally dissatisfied with this, but Gallan, who is the king, doesn’t mind. Of course he can’t help it.

Moreover, although Huimos acted somewhat casually in private, in public, his every move followed the etiquette of a knight, and even Xie Muer could not pick out a sting.

Therefore, the high priest can only open one eye and close one eye to pretend not to see this kind of rudeness in front of the king in private.

Tapti smiled, lowered his head slightly, and bowed in a graceful manner.

She said, “Your Excellency Huimos, congratulations on your triumphant victory again.”

Both of them were princes before, and both were honored as His Royal Highnesses.

But now that Garland had ascended to the throne and became king, then Huimos’ identity as a prince was naturally lost.

Although Huimos still has the closest royal identity, he can no longer be called His Royal Highness.

Just when everyone thought that Huimos would be dispatched to the city of Menistere as the successor of the city according to the tradition and far away from the political center of the royal city, something surprised them.

Huimos stayed in the royal city and was appointed by King Garlan as the commander-in-chief of the 3rd Corps to be rebuilt, holding the military power.

Isn’t King Gallan afraid of being usurped?

Many people are thinking so wonderingly in their hearts.

At the beginning, the young king was praised by everyone, saying that he possessed the’sageness of the sun god Shamash’ and the’wisdom of the wisdom god Solga’.

The danger of leaving Huimos in the royal city… can’t he think of it?

No matter how strange everyone is, this matter is already firmly established.

Huimos was awarded the badge of commander-in-chief of the Third Army, and immediately began to rebuild the Third Army.

No one can deny the power of the world-renowned “Black Knight” and his military talents. In less than half a year, he not only rebuilt the Third Army, but also gave the Third Army its strength. Even before, it was close to the first legion commanded by the Knights of the Scorching Sun.

The First Army, known as the King’s Guards, has always considered itself to be the leader of the army. Of course, it was not reconciled to be overtaken by the Third Army, so the training became more and more desperate.

…

After Garland ascended to the throne, he first dealt with the troubles caused by the tactics of’firm walls and clear fields’ implemented by Huimos in order to defend the king’s city, so as to appease the refugees, escort them to return and rebuild their homes.

Of course, the people injured in the war should also be comforted.

At the same time, awards were given to the legions guarding the northern and eastern borders, and rewards were given to the soldiers who had stood by the border during the war, so that those soldiers who were worried because they did not rescue the king’s city were finally relieved.

After tidying up all the odds and ends, and after the once-destroyed three major legions have been rebuilt, Gallan unceremoniously began to calculate the ledger.

The object of the settlement is naturally the guys who escaped in the battle with the Gasdad.

Aaron Landis has two ways of ruling the city. One is family style, where the city’s government affairs are determined by the city lord; the other is directly subordinate style, where the king’s city dispatches the governor to govern.

And those few people who escaped, all came from the city of family inheritance.

Because in the decisive battle with the invaders, these people abandoned the crown prince and fled by themselves. This behavior equivalent to betrayal was spurned and condemned by most Aaron Landis people, even the people in their own city. Very dissatisfied with this.

And those people knew in their hearts that it was difficult for the new king to understand their behavior.

Therefore, in Garlan’s enthronement ceremony, this occasion that all the city lord must go according to the etiquette regulations, they did not go because they were worried that they would be detained and punished when they entered the royal city.

They dare not leave their city, so they can only shrink and wait nervously.

Because Gallan was busy with the aftermath, he didn’t have time to take care of them for a while, which caused these people to have an illusion.

They felt that the new king was young and gentle, coupled with so many of them, and a lot of troops in his hands, of course, the law did not blame the public, and the new king of Gallan ascended to the throne is still unstable, and he must be somewhat jealous of them. .

So this time they probably won’t be punished.

However, just when they were so relieved that they thought about it, Gallan settled the victims, and a new army was established.

After making room, he directly issued a king order, ordering these city lord to come to the king city to meet him.

Naturally, these city owners dared not go all the time.

Therefore, King Gallan issued a second king order, reprimanding them for fleeing, abandoning their companions, and betraying the king on the battlefield with the invaders, reprimanding them for not coming to participate in the enthronement ceremony, and reprimanding them for refusing what they allowed them to see. Wang Ling.

On these three charges, they were directly condemned as rebels.

Subsequently, he directly sent Huimos to lead the Third Army to conquer these rebels.

This is why Taputi would just say the words’Congratulations to Huimos for another triumphant victory’.

Because this is already the third time Heimos has set off.

As a result, there is no doubt that Heimos captured those cities one after another, and the lord and his family members who were designated as rebels were captured and sent to the royal city, and those cities naturally became the cities directly under the royal court.

“This time the speed is faster than the previous two.”

Garlan asked while eating.

“It took a few days.”

“Four days.”

Huimos also answered while eating.

Although he had replaced the armor he wore on the battlefield, at this moment he still had a faint blood that could not be washed away.

It was as if the endless hostility and death on the battlefield soaked his skin and even flesh and blood, and merged with the black knight.

Even if he just sat here quietly, there was still an invisible evil spirit leaking from his body.

If it’s an ordinary person, I’m afraid it will be frightened if only approaching him.

It’s just that the people in this room at this moment are not ordinary people, so naturally they don’t think it matters.

Garlan raised his head and looked at Xiemur who was standing next to him.

The high priest obviously hadn’t calmed down yet, his face was stern, his brows frowned.

Garlan thought for a while, and he said, “Xiemuer, come here.”

“…”

Although he was very dissatisfied with Garlan’s behavior today, since the king had summoned himself, no matter how dissatisfied Xie Muer was, he would follow the order and walk over.

“What’s your order?”

Although he used honorifics, his tone was not good.

“Bow your head.”

The boy said with a smile.

“What do you want…”

Xie Muer bent down impatiently, but before he finished speaking, his mouth was blocked.

A piece of white bread with bacon was stuffed into his mouth by Gallan.

“Sorry, Sheemur, I did not do the right thing today, I apologize to you.”

Garlan looked at Xiemuer and apologized frankly.

“Thanks for your hard work today, I think you should feel hungry now.”

With a bright smile to the high priest, he said, “I’ll listen to your reprimand honestly later, so how about eating together first?”

Taking down the bread stuffed into his mouth, Xie Muer stared at the bright smiling young king in front of him.

After watching it for a long time, he sighed softly.

With a little helplessness, and in that helplessness there is still a bit of connivance that he doesn’t know.

The anger in the chest disappeared before the boy’s smile and the words caring about whether he was hungry or not.

“…Not as an example.”

The high priest answered so hard.

Not accepting Garlan’s invitation to eat together, turned around and left.

He was still holding the white bread that Garland had stuffed into his mouth.

The magistrate on the side couldn’t help but smile.

The following is not an example.

I don’t know how many times this sentence has been uttered in the mouth of the high priest Xiemur.

Garlan was looking at Xiemur’s leaving back, suddenly stretched out a hand and patted his arm.

As soon as he turned his head back, he met those golden and red eyes.

Heimos, who was sitting across from him, looked at him, suddenly opened his mouth, pointed his finger at the food in front of him, and then pointed his open mouth again.

Garland: “…………”

Does this… mean to feed him yourself?

………………

Was it because I saw him feeding Xiemur just now?

…………

………………

Garland, who was both angry and funny, picked up a large piece of roasted meat and stuffed it into Heymos’ mouth, blocking the mouth to death.

Then he didn’t bother to talk to each other again, and went on eating on his own.

Huimos still had the big piece of roast in his mouth.

He looked at Garlan, raised his hand to take the barbecue in his mouth, and suddenly smiled.

The invisible hostility and evil intentions that penetrated into the blood when fighting on the battlefield dissipated in his smile.

It’s like ice and snow under the sun, and it melts cleanly in an instant.

Alright

The rebels get it done

Let’s guess what is the first decree that Garland will issue soon~~
