A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 91. Chapter 91

After unceremoniously slapped Hiemos, Garland stared at Hiemos and drank the potion.

Although Huimos frowned, under Gallandi’s gaze, he finally swallowed the soup medicine in one mouthful.

After swallowing, probably the bitter taste in his mouth spread, and he pressed his mouth tightly, frowning even more severely.

“Don’t eat it?”

Gallan pointed to the honey biscuits that the maid brought.

Although Huimos frowned in pain, he still shook his head.

He didn’t seem to be pretending, it was true that he didn’t bother to glance at his favorite sweets before.

Although Gallan thought it was a little strange, it didn’t matter to him, so he didn’t think much about it.

Thinking that this man is a patient now, it is not good for him to say anything hurtful. After saying hello to Huimos, he left first.

Hiemos sitting on the bed took a sip of water to dilute the bitter taste in his mouth.

Everyone thinks that his taste is a sweet tooth, but it is not.

Sweetness is not his taste, but because of his childhood experience, he has a strange obsession with sweet things.

It can even be said that for sweets, he is more dependent on sweets than he likes to eat them.

A habit that is difficult to quit.

What he wants is the sweet taste that spreads in his mouth and relaxes his body and mind.

He raised his eyes, and his golden red eyes stared at the back of the leaving boy unblinking.

Although his cheeks were still red from the fever, his eyes were sharp at this moment.

He looked at Garlan’s gaze revealing a touch of longing, and the greed hidden deep in his eyes.

He has found the sweetest taste in the world for him.

It wasn’t just what he felt in his mouth and taste… the sweetness seemed to permeate his whole body and even his soul. It was an incomparably sweet taste.

Therefore, sweets are no longer enough.

Far from enough.

It is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

Now, he has no interest in the sweetness that only satisfies the appetite.

Huimos lay on the bed and slowly closed his eyes.

…………

When Gallan returned to his residence, in the royal court on the other side, King Camos was discussing matters here.

The atmosphere in the royal court is not very good.

Because just at noon, they received an urgent call that the Western Islamic State was affected.

Unlike Aaron Landis, where most areas are spring-like in all seasons, most of the land in the West is grasslands and deserts, and deserts account for two-thirds of the country. Therefore, Iss is also called For the country of the desert.

The Isi people mainly live on horse and sheep and other animal husbandry, and live by water sources and pastures. Their living environment is much worse than that of Aaron Landis, whose soil is rich in fertile vegetation.

Therefore, when the Islamic people are in a disaster, they will attack other countries and grab food and living resources from other countries, and the food-rich Aaron Landis is one of their goals.

“Iss suffered a drought not long ago.”

An old man with slightly grey hair said, “So this year they must come to grab food.”

“But it was earlier than we estimated.”

Another person said.

“Although the time is advanced, but our side is almost ready.”

“Although time is in a hurry, there must be sufficient food and grass.”

“Yes, three days… no, it can be in place in two days!”

After listening to the reports of the ministers, King Camos on the throne nodded.

He said: “Two days later, I will lead my troops on the expedition.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiemur, who was standing on the other side, suddenly stepped forward and spoke in a deep voice.

“Your Majesty, the Shamash Temple in Tozes City will be completed soon. If you can’t go there, please appoint an envoy to go there.”

As soon as Xiemuer said it, King Camos remembered it.

The Archon of Tozes City reported last month that the Shamash Temple is about to be completed.

At that time, he planned to go there himself.

In Aaron Landis, although there are a large number of gods, the country does not limit the belief of the people, but among the gods, only the sun god Shamash and the god of night are regarded by the Aaron Landis people. Those who believe in the main god are served by the royal family.

Therefore, the temples of these two gods cannot be built without authorization. You must first apply to the main temple of Shamash in the royal city. After the high priest allows them, they must be approved by King Aarondis before they can be built.

When the temples of these two gods are completed, they must also report to the king. The king will either go to the inauguration ceremony himself or assign his messengers to represent him.

King Camos pondered for a while, and quickly made a decision.

He raised his head and looked at Xiemur.

“From Garland to Tozes on my behalf, I will participate in the inauguration ceremony of the Shamash Temple.”

As soon as this remark came out, all the ministers and nobles were startled, except for Xie Muer’s bow.

It’s nothing more than appointing messengers, but if Garland, who is a prince, is asked to represent King Aaron Landis to an important temple ceremony…

The implications of this…

Everyone exchanged a deep look at each other.

After the parliament was over, King Camos summoned Garlan and told him about it.

Although Garlan was a little surprised by the sudden messenger, he naturally nodded and accepted.

Because the completion of the Shamash Temple was a few days later and time was too short, he had to set off on the second day.

So, as soon as he went back in the evening, he was busy packing up his clothes.

After leaving the royal city under the escort of the Five Thousand Guards in the early morning of the next morning, Garlan, who was so busy, suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to visit Heimos again before leaving.

……never mind.

Now that Garlan left the royal city, the guardian knight Kaihuos naturally wanted to follow him this time.

Gallan also brought the little fat man Taer with him. At the moment, the little fat man was riding along with him happily, looking very happy.

There was a long cry in the sky, and Garlan raised his head and saw a dark shadow passing under the blue sky.

He bent his eyes and smiled.

Well, of course the big eagle Anu has to bring it.

After all, the eagle is also a symbol of the sun god Shamash.

Garlan was galloping while thinking about the map he watched last night.

Tozes is located in the southwest. It is a seaside city and the largest and most prosperous seaport in Aaron Landis.

The last time he went to Tasda, he headed north, now he is heading south.

…………

Because they were all lightly outfitted and drove on horseback, the guards escorting Gallan were also cavalry, so the walk of the group was very fast.

After a few days, they arrived at the seaport city of Tozes.

After escorting Prince Garland to Tozes, the five thousand guards left without stopping. The battle between Aaron Landis and Isth is about to start, King Camos has already set off, and they also want to rush to the Western Front as soon as possible.

The safety of the prince was naturally taken over by the Aaron Landis army garrisoned in Tozes, and Kaihuos and nearly a hundred of his guards also stayed here.

The Archon of Tozes came out to welcome the arrival of Prince Garlan, and he was very respectful towards Garlan.

Not to mention that Garlan is now the first in line to the throne, and his current identity is still the representative of King Camos.

It can be said that disrespect to Gallan means disrespect to His Majesty.

The Archon of Tozes naturally did not dare to neglect.

In the evening, the consul held a small banquet to welcome Garlan’s arrival.

Not many people were invited to this banquet. Apart from Gallan and his party, as well as the consul, there were only two or three strangers.

Because it is not a formal banquet, the venue layout tends to be more amorous and casual.

An orange-red thick plush felt blanket was spread on the ground, filled with food and wine, translucent tulle was flying softly between the columns, and the snow-white round cushions were placed around the orange-red felt carpet.

The crowd sat on the cushions, surrounded by a square orange blanket, sitting on the ground.

Behind everyone are kneeling two young and beautiful maids serving them.

Garland naturally sat in the main seat, Kehos and Tal sat on his left side, and Tozes’ Archon sat on Garland’s right side.

He smiled and introduced Garlan to the people sitting next to him.

These gorgeously dressed middle-aged men are wealthy local businessmen in Tozes City, and each of them owns a large fleet for maritime trade.

Gallan nodded slightly.

One of the chubby middle-aged men looked at him with a smile, a little eagerness in his eyes.

After toasting Garlan a glass of wine, the man suddenly turned around and beckoned.

A little crisp bell rang.

Garland followed the prestige and saw that little bell was worn on a slender wrist.

The long dark hair curled up, revealing the graceful neck like a swan.

Two strands of black hair fell from the cheeks, and the ends fell on the towering chest.

A young girl came in in style, the pure golden ornaments on her chest and arms lined her honey-colored skin, and her small face was covered with a layer of tulle, which was almost transparent, no different from uncovered, but covered It gave the girl a little seductive atmosphere.

You can see the slender waist that is almost bare under the transparent tulle, and a fiery red gem is embedded on the side of the small belly button, which is more amorous.

The rich middle-aged businessman greeted her.

“Hurry up and salute the prince.”

The beautiful girl obediently responded and knelt down to salute Galan.

The middle-aged man turned his head back with a smile and said to Gallan: “His Royal Highness, this is my daughter, who just turned eighteen years ago.”

Not knowing what the man did to introduce his daughter to himself, Gallan was a little inexplicable.

But since the man introduced him, he smiled politely, nodded, and said nothing.

Gallan didn’t say anything, the man still eagerly leaned over.

“What do you think of the little girl?”

What is your daughter asking me for?

Gallan muttered impatiently in his heart.

But on the surface, he continued to smile awkwardly and politely.

“You have a beautiful daughter.”

He answered politely.

Then, he reached out and took a glass of ice-filled honey from the maid behind him, and took a sip.

The middle-aged man’s eyes shimmered slightly, and he leaned forward, getting closer to Garlan.

“Then, Your Royal Highness, look at—”

He smiled and said, “Does my daughter have the honor to be your concubine to serve you?”

puff–!

Galan spouted a mouthful of honey.

For a moment, he was so choked that he couldn’t speak.

Wealthy businessman: “I have a daughter, twenty-nine years old…”

Someone who was left in the royal city: “Haha.”
