A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 41. Chapter 41
The residents of Vernal City only slept for one night, and when they got up, they realized that the city had undergone earth-shaking changes.
First, there were hundreds of cavalry soldiers in the city that they had never seen before. It is said that they came from the royal city or belonged to the guards of King Camos. Then, these knights captured at least one third of the officials in the city of Venar. When I got up, there were also a few great nobles who were always afraid of people mentioning their names. They were also arrested.
These city dwellers probed their heads to inquire, but in their hearts they were also looking forward to the bad luck of the arrested noble officials, because the arrested were all noble officials who bullied the civilians very much.
Later, the acting consul who was temporarily appointed issued a notice telling everyone that these people were arrested because they had embezzled the property of the river embankment and the relief supplies of the refugees. At the same time, they had also colluded with the cult to take away the women and women among the refugees. The child, and intends to allow the cult to invade the city.
Our wise King Camos found out the abuses of these people even when he was far away in the royal city, so he sent guards to rescue the captured women and children, and arrested these corrupt officials.
When I heard that I was in a dream last night, such a terrible thing had happened in the city, and the city residents were scared one by one.
As long as they think of the consequences of those cultists invading the city, they hate the damn corrupt officials and nobles. Now that those people are arrested, they immediately clapped their hands and cheered.
Therefore, in their hearts, the King Camos, who was thousands of miles away, could still know about the city of Venal, was deified by them, and praised him one by one.
Some people were puzzled by the content of the notice, because it said that King Camos sent his brother, the prince of Aaron Landis, to bring the guards to investigate the matter. The prince not only successfully completed the matter. The mission also rescued children imprisoned by the cult.
Prince?
The younger brother of King Camos?
Does their Aaron Landis have a prince? Does King Camos have a brother?
Some people wondered in confusion that most of the residents of Vernal City did not notice the edict about the two princes more than a month ago because of the flood.
The former consul didn’t care about it, and didn’t publicize it at all, so not many people in the city knew about it.
It just so happened that through this incident of the Sect of All Things, the originally little-known prince became known to everyone, and what happened immediately afterwards gave Garland a great reputation in this city.
On the large square at the entrance of the ruling hall, nearly a hundred knights lined up around the square, and several teams of knights patrolled back and forth in it.
The newly promoted clerk announced to everyone hoarsely that all the children rescued by Prince Garland were here. Now following the prince’s order, let the families who have lost their children in the city come here and claim their children.
The whole city of Venal suddenly became a sensation, especially those refugees who were affected by the disaster, and they were grateful to the prince in their hearts. After the prince came here, the corrupt officials who oppressed them and took their relief supplies were arrested, food and medicine were properly distributed to them, and doctors were arranged to see the seriously ill, which made them grateful. NS.
Unexpectedly, the child they thought they had lost forever was rescued by the prince and returned to them again.
So then, the shouts, crying, and noise in the square never stopped.
Many refugees cried in their arms when they found their children, and some even knelt on the ground while pressing their children, kowtow towards the ruling hall, where the prince was, to thank the prince for his kindness.
For a time, the prestige of Prince Garland was extremely high in this city, second only to King Camos.
Everyone felt that the prince was the successor chosen by King Camos.
At this moment, the scenes that took place in the square, as well as the appearance of those people holding their children weeping with joy, all fell into the eyes of the middle-aged men detained in the high-rise prisons on the side of the executive hall.
Gia, who was once the refugee leader of the riot, stood by the iron window, looking down at the square, looking at the children with a sad look.
Those children returned to their parents again, but his children…
Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps, and someone walked to the iron jail where he was and called him softly.
“Second Uncle.”
Ji Ya turned his head, his eyes fell on the face of the little girl with the flax ponytail.
The once innocent girl has experienced too many things in these short days, has grown and matured rapidly, and is much more sensible than before.
He looked at Kerry and couldn’t help feeling distressed.
Being sensible is never born, it is the child who has to be sensible, and the child is forced to be sensible.
The man opened his mouth to say something, but Klee’s first words made his eyes wide open.
Kerry said: “Second Uncle, I found Kaw.”
The heart beat suddenly and violently, Gia leaned forward and grabbed the iron fence in front of him.
“Kewu? Is he still alive?!”
He asked eagerly and incredulously.
Kewu, his child, he thought he had lost him forever.
“Well, my brother is still alive, in the group of children the prince rescued.”
Kerry quickly answered that she and grandpa went to the square in the mood to give it a try, but they didn’t expect to find her missing cousin.
She said: “He is outside now, with grandpa, second uncle, shall I bring him to see you?”
Gea was eager to say something, he couldn’t wait to see his child, but his mouth opened and moved, but he made a sound completely different from his heart.
“No, don’t bring him to see me.”
He said, his voice was dry.
“Second Uncle?”
“…”
The man grasped the iron fence with his fingers so hard that his knuckles were almost white.
At this moment, he felt extremely regretful.
If his hands were not stained with the blood of innocent people, and he just killed those damn corrupt officials, even if he would be executed, he would go to see his son and tell his son that the father had done nothing wrong. Anything, he just did what should be done, without any shame.
But now…
As the prince said, he killed too many innocent people in the name of justice.
“Kerry, tell Kawu that I died in the flood.”
He said bitterly, “I don’t want him to know that he has a father like this.”
“…Second Uncle.”
Kerry nodded sadly when she heard Gia say this.
“Kelly, I’m sorry, father, and Kaw, I have to ask you.”
The little girl took a deep breath, then she looked at Gia with flushed eyes, tried to show a bright smile, and patted her chest with her hands.
“Don’t worry, second uncle, I have grown up, and I will take good care of my grandfather and younger brother.”
she says,
“With King Camos and Prince Garlan, we will definitely be able to survive!”
Gea looked at Kerry with gentle eyes.
He said: “Yes, there is a king and a prince, they will guard everyone.”
He looked at Kerry with deep sadness in his tender eyes.
“Kerry, you must live well.”
The little girl did not speak any more, her tears blurred her eyes when she was looking at her second uncle. At this moment, she was sobbed that she could no longer make any sound.

……………………
In a room in the tall building to the left of the Executive Hall, Gallan was sitting on a soft bed with a snow-white pillow behind him.
He sat there, staring at the air ahead in a daze.
Brother Camos said it was not convenient for him to show up, so he threw all the credit to him.
In the past two days, everyone in the city of Wiener in this ruling hall looked at him with extremely admiring eyes. Everyone said one after another, Prince, you are such a young age, you can do such a big thing, you really deserve to be a person who inherited the blood of the gods like King Camos.
It made Garlan too guilty.
There is always a feeling of imposter…
With a creak, the door was opened, and a young man with dark hair like the night walked in quickly. At that moment, the thin cloak slanted on his shoulders flew backwards for a moment, and then softly landed on his Behind.
Himos walked to the bed, first reached out and touched Garlan’s forehead to confirm that he did not have a fever, and then looked at Garlan’s hand to confirm whether he had been given the medicine and changed on his wrist today. New gauze.
Then, he looked at Garlan’s eyes.
“I’ve heard of it.”
In addition to the severely injured priest Sheemur and the knight who lost an eye need to be quietly cultivated, the other few knights who were injured have already explained to King Camos in detail what happened at that time.
Huimos was next to him, so naturally he heard all of them.
“You are too risky.”
He scolded.
“You are a prince, you shouldn’t let yourself take such a big risk. Since Sheemur has let you hide in a dark cave, you should hide in it honestly and wait for us to come.”
Gallan looked at Huimos and blinked.
He whispered a little unconvinced: “But in that case, Xiemuer and others will die…”
Huimos interrupted him unceremoniously.
“You are a prince, and your safety is more important than anything else.”
He continued, “And at that time, you can completely follow the rebel leader’s words and agree to his terms, and wait until we have passed.”
“Keeping your life is the most important thing, but in such a dangerous situation, you still have to fight that person-you never thought, if that person is irritated by you, you really do it. What are you going to do?”
“…”
Gallan said nothing.
Although he knew that Heimos was right, he was really taking great risks by doing that, and he was almost on the verge of life and death.
He also thought for a moment whether or not to pretend to agree to the party’s conditions first, save his life, and then figure it out later.
But for some reason, at that time, he just couldn’t do it.
So in the end, he refused the man without hesitation and insisted on his own judgment.
… God knows that when he confronted that man, his entire back was already sweaty… even now that I think about it, some of his hands and feet are cold.
Seeing the little stubborn little child in front of him with his lips pressed, Heymos, who originally wanted to reprimand this always adventurous guy, felt his heart softened, thinking that Garland would spend it all alone. After a thrilling night, he couldn’t help but feel distressed again.
He changed the subject, whispered a few words with Gallan, and asked Gallan if he had anything he wanted to eat or play with, and he went to help him find it. But the angry Gallan turned his head to ignore him, and refused to talk to him, making Hoymos both angry and funny, and itchy at the same time he hates the child, and at the same time he feels reluctant.
He thought for a while and said, “There is a girl who wants to see you. She said her name is Klee.”
When he came to see Garlan, he happened to meet the girl who was begging for the guard at the gate, saying that he wanted to see Garlan. He didn’t care at the time, and he didn’t even bother to bring any cats and dogs to see Garlan, so he ignored the girl and came in by herself.
Now Gallan lost his temper and refused to pay attention to him. He thought that the girl seemed to be next to Gallan last time, and might know him, so he said it out and wanted to induce Gallan to talk to him.
Sure enough, when he heard him say this, Gallan turned his head.
“Kelly? She wants to see me?”
“Well, do you want to see her?”
Gallan thought for a while and nodded.
Huimos smiled at him, rubbed his head, then got up and went out.
After a while, he brought the girl in.
As soon as the girl entered the door, she stared at Garlan for a while, then knelt down quickly and lowered her head.
“His Royal Highness, Prince.”
Kerry’s voice was a little panicked.
“I’m very sorry, I know it’s very rude to want to see you… But I really have something to tell you…”
“Get up, there is no need to be like this.”
“Yes, but you are a prince…”
“Get up, Kerry.”
A familiar soft voice came. The sound of’Kelly’ seemed to hit the softest part of the girl’s heart. It was a bit astringent and a little painful. Kerry was stunned for a while, resisting the sour feeling in her heart, and stood up. Come.
She raised her head and looked forward.
The blond child was lying on the bed, with jewel-like pupils looking at her and smiling at her.
The smile was like the night of that day. When the cultists were chasing him, Gal, who led them away, smiled to himself when he got up.
It was imprinted in her memory, so she couldn’t forget it.
“His Royal Highness, I want to come to thank you. You are obviously a prince, but at that time you put yourself in danger in order to save me and grandpa…” She said, “Also, you helped me to rescue me. Brother, I, grandfather, and second uncle are all very grateful to you.”
“So, even if I know that requesting to see you is a rude request, I still want to thank you in person.”
Kerry’s words made Gallan startled.
“Really?” he said, “I thought…you would resent me.”
After all, he personally committed the crime of Klee’s second uncle, the man named Gia.
The man is about to be executed soon, together with the other rebel refugees who have killed innocent townspeople.
“How could we…”
Kerry lowered her eyes and whispered with some trepidation.
…In fact, there are.
There is actually some resentment towards you.
Obviously, as long as you say a word, you can let my second uncle and other people live.
But you gave such a judgment.
…Even if I know that your second uncle did something wrong, your trial is right, but I still selfishly complained about you in my heart…
…………
I am grateful to you, but I also blame you.
And this heart of gratitude, this heart of complaining, I will never forget.
I want to hide them together in my heart, so that I can always remember you.
Gal.
Quiet for a while, Kerry spoke suddenly.
She said, “Prince, can I kiss you?”
“what?”
Kerry’s sudden words caught Gallan off guard.
He suddenly remembered that when he first met Kerry, the girl suddenly kissed him on the cheek and said that she would raise him for the rest of her life.
Now, is this girl planning to do it again?
…No, wait, there are people next to him, Huimos is still here!
Garland looked at Huimos in a panic, but found that Huimos didn’t look at him at all, but stared deeply at Klee.
Seeing Gallan’s stunned look, Kerry was also startled, remembering the time she had done it before, her face flushed suddenly, and she waved her hand again and again.
“His Royal Highness, it’s definitely not the kind of kiss before. I was offended at the time, but how can I dare to—”
She flushed and said, “I mean, I want to kiss your hand.”
Gallan took a deep breath.
Personally, if you make it clear, startled me.
He originally wanted to refuse, but when he raised his head to see the indescribable look Kerry was staring at him, he hesitated, and finally nodded.
He said: “Okay.”
Kerry walked over, and she leaned over, holding Garlan’s hand by the bed.
She looked at the pale hand that was still wrapped in the snow-white bandage for a while, and then she knelt down.
She lowered her head, closed her eyes, and held the prince’s hand in both hands.
The girl bowed her head in a very pious manner and kissed the back of the prince’s hand.
She said: “His Royal Highness, I believe that you will be the most wise king of Aaron Landis in the future.”
She whispered: “Please protect me and my relatives, please protect the people of Aaron Landis…”
My prince.
My future king.
No matter where I will be in the future, I will pray for you…
…………
The girl was taken out, and Garland found that Heimos was staring at him, with a look that made him very uncomfortable.
He tilted his body subconsciously, trying to avoid the opponent’s gaze.
“That commoner kissed you before?”
Huimos asked suddenly.
As soon as Gallan stayed, he panicked and quickly explained to Huimos.
“It’s not the kind you think–just the face and cheeks, it’s the kind that kisses my face when I wake up in the morning. You know, Brother Wang often kisses me on the cheek, it’s just this kind of kiss! You know, Brother Wang Loves me very much, treats me very well!”
Garlan explained in a panic, and resolutely assured that he had absolutely no unspeakable relationship with the little girl.
Kerry is only ten years old, I am not a perverted lolicon——
For fear of being regarded as a perverted loli, he probably forgot the fact that he is smaller than that girl now.
Huimos pursed his mouth, and he suddenly said, “Gallan, I have always been nice to you, too.”
“what?”
A word from Hiemos made Garlan a little confused.
Why did Hiemos suddenly mention the question of whether he is good or not?
The topic changed too quickly, he couldn’t figure it out?
Although speaking of it, Heimos in this life is indeed quite good to him…
No, no, he can’t let his guard down!
This guy killed himself four times. Even if he treats himself better now, he still can’t tell what he will do in the future.
Unsure of the situation, Garlan turned his mind quickly while looking at Heimos confusedly.
He asked Huimos what he meant by his eyes.
“……never mind.”
Huimos stared at Garland with a confused look for a long time, and finally said so, without saying more, got up and left.
The civilian girl was brought in by him, so he was naturally responsible for taking it away.
He quickly led Kelly to the gate outside. Kelly bowed her head to thank him, but she bowed her head for a long time without hearing an answer.
She couldn’t help it, and secretly looked up.
Then, she was taken aback by the look the boy stared at her.
The black-haired teenager looked at her with strange eyes, making her hairy and uncomfortable.
“Big…sir?”
She cried tremblingly.
The boy looked at her again with that strange look, then nodded and said, “You go, don’t come again.”
After speaking, the boy turned and left.
Kerry stood there, vaguely hearing the young man whispering to himself.
“…I haven’t kissed yet…”
Kerry: “???”
