A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 64. Chapter 64
The shocking little prince was taken back to the palace by the black-faced Lion King.
Because of Gallan’s unintentional words, King Camos gargled his mouth with wine several times after returning, and then he was relieved. The priest Shamash, who didn’t follow to pick up people and didn’t see this scene, was inexplicable. He didn’t know what was wrong with the wayward Majesty, and actually used the precious wine as mouthwash.
After all, the top wines that can be offered to the king are invisible to ordinary people.
However, even after gargling, King Camos felt panicked when he thought of what Gallan said.
However, the person who said that was his beloved little brother. For the lion king who vowed to reprimand the king who slipped out of the palace one second before, he hugged the lion king who was too petted by his own brother in the next second. Brother Wang is impossible, impossible in this life.
Therefore, King Camos who was in a bad mood spread his anger on other people.
Gore was flogged, and then deprived of the title of nobility along with his parents and demoted to a pariah.
Although he did not lose his life, for Gore, being a bitch like a trash bug in his eyes was more painful than killing him.
The Xicheng Guard was demoted and lost the real power to command the city guard. At the same time, a large number of officials fell off their horses, pulled out the radishes to bring out the mud, and dug up a bunch of nobles who often carried King Camos on their backs.
After all, King Camos spends at least half of the time in the war outside the year. Therefore, these nobles are usually as honest as good babies when Camos is in the city. When Camos goes out, they will be exposed to greed. Nature.
In fact, this time in the feast of the slums, they also planned to wait for King Camos to set off for a while before they lifted their masks and feasted them, taking away all the wealth of those untouchables and turning them all into their own slaves. For so many years, some of the inspectors in the royal city directly under the jurisdiction of King Kamos have been attracted and corrupted by them.
For a time, a bloody cleansing was set off in the royal city. Seeing that several colleagues were dragged out every day to be severely punished, the noble officials were frightened.
However, they were the only ones who were terrified. For the common people, watching those big figures who were inexperienced in the past fall from the horse, all became their gossip after dinner, and the discussion was full of relish.
For the untouchables in the slums, it was even more jubilant. All the money that was forced to borrow was not repaid. Their great and just King Kamos sent envoys here to get rid of those who were in front of them. All the IOUs taken out of the sealed money bank were all burned.
At that time, many people were crying and kowtow, desperately thanking the king for his kindness.
When they heard that the newly built house would still be given to them as promised, everyone cheered. For a while, the slums were joyous and beaming.
And shortly after that, a story about their young little prince’s unannounced visits to the slums, wits and corrupt officials began to circulate secretly among the untouchables… At first it seemed to be from a thin, tall boy. from.
Later, this interesting rumor caught the attention of a bard. After listening in detail, he compiled it into a poem and sang it.
The bard did not expect that his temporary rise would allow his name to be passed on for thousands of years because of this poem.
It can be regarded as the name goes down in history.
…………
Although the Great Purge caused some people in the royal court to tremble and sleep restlessly, for others, they were very happy.
All the Shamash priests are among that group of people.
Integrity, impartiality, and integrity are the doctrines of Shamash, the god of justice and judgment, and all priests of Shamash strictly abide by this doctrine. Therefore, for them, corruption and bribery is a big crime, and the intention to deceive the sacred and supreme king and distort the king’s orders is even more unforgivable.
Their greatest hope is that all places where the sun god shines will be clear, and all corrupt officials should be severely judged, and they should all be killed cleanly.
As one of them, Xiemur was naturally very satisfied with this cleaning.
Well, as expected, Prince Gallan was favored by Goddess of Luck.
He thought with satisfaction.
Then, he didn’t severely reprimand the prince sneaking out of the palace this time.
Therefore, Xiemuer only said a few words symbolically when she saw Garlan, and then let it go.
This made Garlan, who was ready to be severely reprimanded by Xie Muer, astonished. He didn’t understand why Xie Muer suddenly changed his temper to speak so well.
Then, he opened his mouth and watched Xie Muer hurriedly go away with a confused look.
“Huh? It’s probably because Master Xiemuer is busy tracing the criminal evidence of the Chief Secretary and others, so I’m very busy now.”
To the little prince’s dazedness, the magistrate Taputy replied with a smile.
As far as she knows, all Shamash priests are the type whose combat power instantly explodes as soon as they encounter corrupt officials.
At this moment, she was holding an emerald green malachite comb, gently combing the little prince’s hair.
The snow-white skin of the child who has just finished bathing is like milk, and there is still a little pink that has been smoked out by the heat in the milky white. It is so tender that it can drip out, and people can’t help but want to poke it. .
The pale blonde hair was carefully dried, soft and supple. It felt like fine velvet, delicate and soft. When it was scattered, it was as if the rustling sound of the hair could be heard.
It exudes a beautiful light golden luster under soft lighting.
The magistrate caressed the little prince’s satin-like pale blonde hair, and she couldn’t put it down.
She thought, if such a beautiful blonde could be kept long, it would be very beautiful.
As soon as this thought moved, she couldn’t help but make up for the appearance of the little prince’s long pale blonde hair falling on his snow-white shoulders.
…………
Okay, it’s so decided.
Tapti, who had completed his brain, made a happy decision.
Let the little prince keep long hair even if he is even tricked.
Tapti put down the malachite comb and picked up a jade box on the table.
Once opened, there is a translucent milky white liquid inside, and a medicinal fragrance comes out. It is a good scar removing ointment. The effect is indeed very good. She has been worried about the little prince’s burn scars. When it happened, the back and calves were almost gone, except for a little pink mark on the back of the neck.
She hadn’t used this ointment for a while, and this time, she took it out again.
She gently applied the ointment to the scab on Garlan’s arm.
Although Garlan felt that this little injury was really unnecessary, he knew that he was inexorable to the magistrate, so he obediently let Tapiti wipe it.
Tapti couldn’t help talking while applying the medicine.
“His Royal Highness Gallan, you are still too adventurous.”
She said, “You are a prince, how honorable, how can you do such dangerous things?”
“Even if you encounter something like that, if you want to help those untouchables, you should put your own safety first. You are still young after all.”
Holding the medicine box, Tapti looked at Garlan and said.
“At that time, you should come back to the palace first and tell King Camos to send someone to investigate.”
“But in that case, after a long time, those people can’t find out anything if they do some tricks?”
Gallan said, tilted his head to look at Tapti, and laughed.
“Anyway, even if I get caught, I will be beaten at best.”
Regardless of that Gore, he didn’t have the guts to really kill another nobleman in the royal city, at best he would beat them up just to warn them.
If both Huimos and Kayjos were too late to come, he was ready to be beaten.
The child smiled brightly at his maid.
He said: “I was beaten alone, but it was worthwhile to save many lives.”
Tapti’s breathing paused.
Those people are just humble untouchables.
She wanted to say so.
Everyone thinks that even the lives of thousands of untouchables are not as good as a single hair of the noble prince—even those untouchables themselves would think so.
Therefore, Tapti could not understand what the prince said, nor could he understand what the prince did.
She was very confused about this.
this is not right.
The education she had always received told her like this.
However, when she met Prince Garland’s gaze, she couldn’t say, “Prince, you did something wrong, you shouldn’t do this” for some reason.
Suddenly, she suddenly remembered what she had heard when she went to the temple of the sun god Shamash to listen to the teachings of the elderly high priest.
[The sun god Shamash is just and unselfish. 】
[Even the humble untouchables and filthy slaves, he is still willing to shed light on them, giving them light and warmth. 】
The little prince raised his head and looked at her, with golden eyes as if there was a stream of light circulating, as bright as a cloudless sun in the clear sky.
…………
Just when Tapti was startled, someone suddenly came in and reached out and took the medicine box in her hand.
As soon as the magistrate raised her head, the figure of the black-haired boy came into her eyes.
She frowned subconsciously, but still stood up calmly and bowed her head to the boy with impeccable etiquette.
“Prince Huimos.”
Huimos gave a hum, which was a response.
“Let me do it.”
As he said, he sat down and applied the ointment to the bruise that was hit on Garlan’s shoulder, and then rubbed the creamy ointment on the bruise with his fingertips.
“pain.”
When the bruise was rubbed like this, Gallan immediately yelled in pain, subconsciously trying to hide, but Huimos held it down.
“If you don’t rub it, the pain will last longer.”
Heimos, who is very good at this kind of bruises, naturally knew that it would be hot and painful when rubbing the silt with medicine, so he coaxed while pressing Garland.
“Hey, it won’t hurt in a while.”
Because he wanted to press Garlan, who was struggling, Heymos forcibly held the child with one hand from behind, as if he was forcibly holding little Garlan in his arms.
The Taputi lady’s mouth twitched, and she stretched out her hand to retrieve the ointment from Prince Huimos without being rude.
“Prince Huimos,” she said with a dark face. “This is a scar-removing ointment, it’s useless for silting.”
So please let go of Prince Garland.
now–
immediately–
immediately–
However, Huimos seemed to have completely failed to understand the implications of the female officer’s words. As soon as he heard the scars, as if he had remembered something, his eyes fell on the back of Garland’s neck.
There was a pale pink mark on the back of the neck to the shoulder.
At first glance, it looked like a small cherry blossom dotted on the white and tender skin, and it was indescribably beautiful.
With a movement in his heart, unable to tell why, Hiemos poked lightly on the pink mark.
The child in his arms immediately struggled.
“Don’t touch it, itchy!”
Garlan grumbled while struggling, not knowing why, the back of his neck became too sensitive after healed the wound, and it itched severely when touched.
Although he struggled hard, Huimos put his arm around him, and he couldn’t get away. Instead, his small head was dangling in Huimos’ arms, and his hair kept sweeping Hoymos’s neck and chin.
The sensation of being scratched by feathers and itching on his neck and face made the corners of the boy’s lips rise uncontrollably.
He hugged the child in his arms, lowered his head slightly, and let his cheek rest on the soft blond hair.
“Well, it’s itchy.”
He smiled and said, turning his face to his side, his raised lips were as close as he was kissing the blond hair of the child in his arms.
Gallan turned to look at him, blinking lightly with her big eyes, and her eyelashes grew like they could touch the ends of his hair.
Hiemos held Garland, and dark black hair as deep as the night sky fell from the corner of his smiling eyes, entangled with Garland’s bright pale blonde hair.
His dark brown hand held the small white hand.
Night and day.
black and white.
It should have been an extremely opposite color, but at this moment, I don’t know why it gives people an indescribable harmony, as if they should be intertwined by nature.
…………
……………………
Ahhhh, she really didn’t like this prince Huimos.
The above is the abdomen of the magistrate who is holding the medicine box in her hand tightly and standing aside expressionlessly at this moment.
