A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 54. Chapter 54

In the room, King Camos was standing by the window, holding a piece of parchment in one hand, and casually grabbing the black and red cloak wrapped in front of him and threw it back.

A maid immediately stepped forward and knelt under his feet, carefully spreading the slightly wrinkled cloak under his feet behind him, gently smoothing the wrinkles with her fingers, and then stood up and retreated to the side. .

Xiemuer held a book-sized cyan stone plate in both hands, filled with red paint, and a round seal of lapis lazuli was placed next to it. King Camos picked up the lapis lazuli seal and placed it on the parchment in his hand.

After he finished stamping, the middle-aged knight who stood in front of him with his head down and reported to him respectfully also finished his report.

The two-fingered lion badge on the knight’s chest symbolizes his identity as the Chief Qianqi. He was the Chief Qianqi who led a team of knights from the Guards to Menister City yesterday with Huimos.

Just now, he reported everything he saw to his king in detail.

After dealing with the political affairs and listening to the report of the subordinates on yesterday’s situation, King Camos, who was standing by the window, smiled.

“It’s okay,” he said. “It’s not bad to be able to maintain a sense of sanity in that situation.”

Camos knew a little about the newly appointed City Lord of Menister City.

He nodded at what Huimos did.

That little guy is indeed very smart and very cunning.

His behavior seemed reckless, but he was just stepping on the bottom of City Lord Earl. It happened that Earl was barely able to bear it, but he had reached the limit, and he was on the verge of exploding after one more point.

Camos sent his own bodyguards, and even let a captain lead a team to follow Huimos, on the one hand, to protect the safety of Huimos, to give Huimos strength; on the other hand , Also in order to avoid Huimos being dazzled by anger and hatred, and doing uncontrollable things-let this Qianqi pass by, just to stop him before that.

You must know that Earl is still the city lord of Menister City after all, a high-powered collateral noble of the royal family, and his own power is not small. There are also tens of thousands of private troops under his command, and he is a party power.

Not to mention that there is no evidence for this matter, even if there is evidence, because it did not cause much accident, it was just a prince who was injured.

“Tela.”

He yelled a person’s name, “Go and arrange for someone to warn Earl, it’s his business to do what he wants to do in Menister City, but if I extend my paw to the city again, I will be welcome. ”

A shadow suddenly appeared in the corner of the empty room. The figure knelt on one knee, nodded to King Camos, and then disappeared again.

The things that happened in Menister City were internal to the Huimos family, and Camos did not intend to intervene.

The reason why Earl took advantage of this opportunity to give Hiemos this time was only because Earl’s hand was too long and hurt his little brother, and Camos taught Earl a lesson.

At the same time, he also warned Earl not to extend his claws into his sphere of influence in the future.

In this way, coupled with the threat of Huimos, Earl and his son will probably stay honestly in Menister City for a long time.

As for the grievances between Huimos and him…

“His family affairs, when he grows up in the future, he will deal with it by himself.”

King Camos said so.

Huimos is a man who must repay him, he will definitely not let go of the uncle who tried to kill him again and again.

It’s just that the young wolf hasn’t grown up yet, and his teeth and claws are not sharp enough, so he can only lurch and wait for the day when the wings are full…

It is conceivable that when Hiemos grows up, it will be the end of Lord Earl. Moreover, Lord Earl may just be a whetstone on the road to the growth of this wolf king.

Perhaps this is also the reason why the Lord of Earl is anxious to kill Huimos again and again, I am afraid he can also see that his nephew will become his most terrible enemy in the future.

“Where is Prince Huimos now? Going back to rest?”

Now that King Camos had made a decision, Xie Muer no longer said more, but turned to ask the Qianqi chief.

I haven’t slept for two days and three nights.

“No.” The middle-aged Qianqi Chief replied, “After he went back and cleaned it, he went directly to Prince Garlan’s residence.”

……………………

The courtyard, which was still crowded a few days ago, has now quieted down. Most of the people have been driven out. Only two or three maids are still walking in the courtyard. They talk softly in each other’s ears. Talking verbally, walking and doing things as lightly as possible, for fear of making too much noise and disturbing the little prince who finally fell asleep in the house.

A burst of soft music came out of the room, it was a very pleasant and soft melody, the sound of the strings being plucked was like the ding-dong sound of a fountain falling into the water.

By the window of the room, a handsome blond knight was sitting there, wearing a simple white robe, black trousers, and a black waist rope. He is holding a half-person-height two-string lute in his arms, which is hemispherical, and the sound hole has exquisite hollow carvings, and the top of the long handle is slightly bent into a leaf shape, which is slender and elegant.

The bundle of blond hair fell from Kehos’s shoulder, and his slender fingers slid softly on the strings, letting silver bell-like notes reverberate softly in the room.

The female officer put a piece of incense into the hollow gold incense burner to light, so that the room was surrounded by a soft and sleepy faint fragrance. Then, she raised her hand and gestured gently to the one-eyed knight, and Kehuos slowed down the tune, and then slowly stopped.

He gently put the lute down and stepped forward.

The little prince fell asleep with the soft piano sound and the faint fragrance, still lying on his stomach, half of his face plunged into the soft pillow.

The soft blonde hair was scattered on the snow-white pillows. Because of some fever, the small face was slightly reddish, and there were still a little water mark on the slender eyelashes.

At this moment, the child closed his eyes and breathed evenly.

After taking a look, Kaihus retreated with the female officer.

After all, the burns have always caused Prince Garland to suffer unbearable pain and to fall asleep. Especially in the first two days, Kyhors had to use the special drug he made himself, which made Garlan fall into a drowsy sleep.

But that kind of drug shouldn’t be used too much, otherwise it will cause harm to the body, so today Kaihuos wanted to use the soothing music to make Gallan fall asleep.

Thinking of the little prince looking at him obediently with his big misty eyes open, listening to him playing the piano, and then slowly closing his eyes, Kaihus felt his heart softened.

He was quite self-blame, and if he hadn’t left that night, the little prince would not suffer this sin.

As a guardian knight, he failed to protect the prince well, and he was very upset when he thought of it.

“Taputi, what did the doctor say in the morning?”

He asked.

The door was lightly closed, and the female officer with long flax hair turned and answered Kaihuos softly.

“The condition has stabilized a lot, the wound is not inflamed, and the recovery is pretty good. However, the pain is still inevitable…”

She said, “I made a sleep-promoting incense, hoping it would work more or less.”

The female officer Taputi has an outstanding perfumery technique that is recognized in the palace, but the incense block she made by herself was previously only used by King Camos. Whether other people can get it depends on her mood.

At this moment, she looked at Kaihuos and praised: “I don’t know yet, you still have such a superb piano skill, you are playing great music.”

“Thank you for your compliment, it’s just a trick of carving insects. Because this will be more popular with beauties, so I went to learn it at the beginning.”

The knight’s answer made the slightly rising feelings of the female officer disappear in an instant.

Ah, what a shallow and frivolous guy.

Why did King Camos let such a person become the guardian knight of Prince Garland?

I don’t know if he will spoil the pure little prince in the future.

She thought so in her heart, bowed slightly, and then turned to see if the maids had made the medicine. However, before he could leave, he heard the voice of the knight beside him.

Kaihuos said: “Good afternoon, Prince Hiemos.”

Tapti looked up and saw Hiemos walking into the courtyard from the gate.

The young prince’s clothes were clean, but his hair was messy, with a bit of water dripping from the tips of his hair. It was obvious that he had hurried to take a bath and changed into clean clothes. He was splashed with water before he could wipe his hair.

Dark brown skin glowed with a little moisturizing luster under the light, and the most eye-catching thing was his eyes. The eye sockets were black and blue. I’m afraid I haven’t slept for a long time, and the tips of his hair are deep in there. Deep shadows fell in his eye sockets.

As soon as he saw the maid and the knight here, he walked over quickly.

“How is Garlan?”

He asked in a low voice.

Tapti bowed slightly and saluted, and then replied, “The doctor said that the situation is fairly stable.”

Without waiting for Hiemos to continue to ask questions, she continued: “Prince Garland just fell asleep. He hasn’t fallen asleep for a long time because of the pain of the wound.”

The female officer used a very tactful tone, but ruthlessly dispelled any request that Heimos might make next.

To be honest, for the young man who hurt her lovely little prince, she held a bit of anger towards him.

Before he could say something, the female officer’s euphemistic and tough words choked in his throat, and Hoymos opened his mouth, but couldn’t say anything. He glanced at the concealed door and lowered his eyes. The shadow of his eyelashes fell on his pupils, making his eyes look a little dark.

His thin lips, being pressed so hard by him, became thinner and thinner like a line.

Kayhus suddenly said: “Prince Hiemos, when His Royal Highness Gallan ordered you not to let you approach him, I was still very confused. But now I may understand.”

“Perhaps His Royal Highness has already foreseen that you will bring disaster to him, and obviously I also think so, you will bring trouble to His Highness.”

He said: “So, please stay away from Your Highness and don’t approach him.”

Heymos stood still on the spot with a bit of trouble and loss, with his lips pressed and said nothing. Now that Kayhus said this, he raised his eyes to Kayhus, the corners of his eyes raised sharply.

At this moment, he seemed to have changed back to the powerful young man who dared to pierce his cousin on the ground and could confront his uncle of the city lord without showing any weakness. His golden red eyes seemed to be burning with the sun. flame.

“No one can drive me away from Garlan.”

He stared at the knight who was trying to drive him away, and said in a deep voice.

Then, turned his head to look at Tapti.

“I have taken a shower, and I am clean and there is no dust. I want to go in and see Garlan.” His words became hardened, “I won’t wake him up.”

Feeling the sudden toughness of Hiemos, Tapti sighed softly in his heart, and then stepped aside. She watched Huimos enter the room, the door was opened, and then again concealed.

She said, “Master Kaihuos, did you use this on purpose?”

“Well…”

The one-eyed knight smiled, but did not answer directly.

He said: “It would be too wasteful for him to escape like this. Since the little prince was injured for him, he has to pay a price, eh, isn’t it?”

Tapti said nothing, turned and walked away quickly.

I really couldn’t get along with this frivolous guy.

The female officer thought so in her heart.

…………

After entering the room, Huimos eased his movements as much as possible.

The child is lying on the bed, sleeping shallowly, maybe a little movement will wake up the child.

There was a chair at the head of the bed, which should have been put by the female officer for the convenience of sitting on the bed to take care of Garland. Heymos sat down directly on the chair.

He looked at Garlan who was asleep.

The child closed his eyes, and his long fan-like eyelashes cast a shallow shadow on his cheeks. There is still a little redness in the corner of the eye, and it is obviously painful to keep crying.

Hiemos’ gaze fell on Gallan’s back, one on the back of his neck, two on his back, and one on his calf. The snow-white skin was covered with green medicinal mud. I didn’t know the medicinal mud. Here is what a terrible injury, will it leave scars…

As he thought about it, he looked at Garlan blankly.

That little body was lying on the bed, it looked unusually weak, and it made people feel terribly frustrated when they looked at it.

He remembered that day when Gallan said,’I hate you, I don’t need you’, that almost cruel language, and the back that left him without hesitation.

He remembered again that that night, Garlan desperately rushed up and knocked him away from under the brazier… The child hit by the charcoal fire knelt on the ground, trembling with pain.

His mind was a little confused, and he didn’t understand it.

It is said that children are fickle, but what is Gallan to him…

Just when Huimos was in a daze, the child on the bed’s eyelashes moved slightly and opened his eyes.

Garlan, who turned his head to the side, looked at the boy next to the bed, and opened her lips.

“Hey… Mo…”

The faint voice instantly awakened Hiemos, he leaned over nervously and looked at Garlan.

“Are you awake?” He said softly, as if worried that a louder voice would hurt the weak child in front of him, “Does it hurt? Would you like to drink water? I’ll call a doctor?”

The child seemed to be in a state of being awake, looking at him dimly.

After a long while, he said softly.

“hand……”

“Um?”

“……your hands.”

The boy followed the child’s dim gaze and saw his right hand.

He was a little inexplicable, but he followed Garlan’s words and placed his right hand in front of Garlan’s eyes.

The child’s golden eyes were half open, still looking confused, his hand on the pillow moved slightly, and he moved it, and the small hand gently grabbed a finger of Huimos.

The little hand gently shook the boy’s finger, and touched it again, as if confirming something.

Then, Gallan’s eyes curled up, like the arc of a crescent moon.

The child with a little red tears in the corner of his eyes laughed. The smile was sweet, so cute, and sweet as if it could penetrate into people’s hearts.

As if relieved, he let go of his heart, so he held Huimos’ fingers, closed his eyes, and fell asleep again.

Huimos did not speak or move.

He looked at Garlan’s hand.

The gentle little hand held his finger gently, but he felt that what was held by that hand was his own heart.

…………

“Kyjos, is Huimos here?”

“Yes, Your Majesty, he is inside.”

There was a soft conversation at the door, and then the open door was pushed open, and someone walked in.

King Camos who entered the door swept his eyes and was taken aback.

He tilted his head and glanced at Kaihus, who was also startled, and then the two tall and burly men couldn’t help showing knowing smiles.

Little Gallan was lying on her stomach on the bed, sleeping quietly.

Himos, who was sitting in a chair, was lying on the edge of the bed, also sleeping very deeply.

The child’s small, soft hands held the teenager’s slightly rough fingers.
