A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 92. Chapter 92

When the beautiful girl came in for money, the blond knight next to her looked up and looked at the girl from head to toe.

His eyes rolled around the smiling middle-aged wealthy businessman’s face again, and then, lowered his eyes, the forehead scattered in front of his eyes covered the meaningful look in his eyes.

“I wonder if my little girl is honored to be a concubine of His Royal Highness?”

As soon as he took a sip of wine, his highness coughed violently.

It seemed that he was shocked by the words of the middle-aged wealthy businessman, and choked badly.

Kaihus put down his glass, turned around, and reached out and gently patted Garlan’s back, who was still coughing.

Garlan looked at him, coughing so much water leaked from the corner of his eyes.

The knight smiled at his master, and while stroking the boy’s back, he raised his hand with a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from the corners of the boy’s eyes.

Probably because of the knight’s calm demeanor, Gallan also calmed down a little bit.

Kaihus nodded slightly at him, then turned his head back, and continued to eat nonchalantly.

Gallan waved his hand to the middle-aged man.

He said: “Sorry, I appreciate your kindness.”

“What? Your Highness, is my little girl out of your eyes? Or do you think she is older than you? If so, I also have a daughter who just turned fourteen this year…”

“No, it’s not like that.”

Wait a minute, it’s a crime to be fourteen or something.

“Your daughter is beautiful, but I personally don’t have that kind of thoughts yet.”

“Why? Your Majesty, you will be an adult soon. It is not in line with your noble status to be served by no one by your side. My daughter has no requirements, as long as she can serve you, even if she can be a nameless maid. It is willing.”

The middle-aged wealthy businessman who wanted to shove his daughter over was too enthusiastic, and Gallan couldn’t stand it for a while.

“No…well, I think I won’t think about concubine until I have yet to marry a wife. This is not good for my future wife…”

The middle-aged man laughed hahaha.

“His Royal Highness, what are you, women, they can only survive by relying on men, and seeing men wince is alive.”

He didn’t care, and he said it for granted.

“How many women a man wants is not something they can control. If you don’t obey, you have to learn a lesson. You see, a businessman like me has dozens of concubines. If you don’t have hundreds of concubines by your side, why? Can you show your identity? A woman, but it’s just a thing to please men.”

Garlan frowned invisibly.

He felt that the man had said too much.

At this moment, he heard a low snort of disdain and contempt in his ear.

He turned his head and followed the sound subconsciously, and looked around, surrounded by maids who bowed their heads and docilely served the crowd. He didn’t find the one who hummed.

And Kaihus beside him seemed to not care about the conversation between them at all, eating food intently.

The fat boy Taer on the outside was staring angrily at the middle-aged man and his daughter.

Originally, when the beautiful girl came out, Taer’s eyes brightened, staring at the girl continuously, but when he heard that the middle-aged rich businessman wanted to dedicate the girl to His Royal Highness, Taer’s eyes instantly changed.

From the beginning, the admiration and admiration turned to picky, and suddenly, he looked at the beautiful girl and disliked it.

Bah, you woman is not as good-looking as my Royal Highness, she brazenly wants to climb to your Royal Highness.

Shameless!

The little fat Tarr thought with a grunt in his heart.

When Gallan refused, he was happy.

Well, my Highness has a very high-sightedness, so I look down on you——

Taer was full of thoughts here, while the middle-aged wealthy businessman over there continued to persuade with a smile on his face.

“So, Your Highness, please be your kind, accept the little girl, even if it’s just a slave.”

As he said, he winked at the Archon Tozes beside him.

The consul understood, and smiled to Gallan.

“His Royal Highness, this represents the wishes of the citizens of Tozes. I hope someone can take care of you, so you can accept it.”

“…”

The two of you persuaded each other to make Gallan ponder a little.

He raised his eyes and looked at the black-haired girl who was still kneeling on the ground.

The girl raised her eyes slightly, and her slender Danfeng glanced shyly with a timid look, her face was pure, but her eyes were full of amorous feelings.

Such as buds that are worthy of blooming, there is a touch of charm in the purity of the girl, this kind of stunner, just a seductive look, makes people feel itchy.

Gallan, who was shyly glanced at the girl, lowered his eyes slightly, and the shadow of his slender eyelashes fell in his half-closed eyes.

He sat cross-legged on the cushion and pondered for a while.

“In a few days, I will come to visit.”

He seemed to be persuaded to be a little excited, but he hadn’t made up his mind yet. He didn’t say he wanted or no, he just said vaguely like this.

However, this hesitation made the smiles of the few people who kept persuading him brighter.

However, with Garlan’s release, Kehos’s face was faint, and there was no expression on his face, but for Tal, it was a bolt from the blue, and the whole person was embarrassed.

His Royal Highness? !

No, this is definitely not possible ah ah ah-

You can’t be fooled by that kind of woman’s appearance! She is obviously not as good-looking as you!

No matter how Tal wailed in his heart, such as bereavement, everyone else, including Garlan, seemed to be in a good mood.

Thus, a dinner party ended in a pleasant atmosphere.

Garlan sleeps well all night.

Only the unwilling Taer tossed and turned, he woke up in the morning with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

Garlan raised her eyebrows when she saw it, and asked, “What’s the matter? Can’t sleep well?”

Tar didn’t speak, and looked at Garlan sadly like an abandoned chubby puppy.

Gallan couldn’t help but smile, and raised his hand to touch Taer’s head.

Tarr’s curly hair felt good to the touch.

Speaking of which, everyone around him is too tall, and only Tal is slightly shorter than him, so he can touch his head.

The consul rushed over early in the morning and greeted Galan enthusiastically, and then accompanied him to inspect the city.

He smiled and said that he had already arranged everything, only waiting for the prince to leave.

Garland did not refuse. Under the arrangement of the consul, he got into a beautifully decorated carriage, surrounded by heavy troops, walked through a small part of Tozes, and arrived at the Shrine of Shamash.

The newly built temple is located by the sea, on a high ground.

The whole temple is like gold casting, draped with golden light and embellished with precious stones, it is extremely gorgeous and extremely luxurious.

The trapezoid-shaped platform allows it to stand high in the city. In the open-air square, a huge statue of Shamash stands here, condescending and overlooking the people.

With a solemn expression, he held a sword in his hand, the tip of the sword pierced his feet, and his hand was placed on the lion under his feet, with golden pupils looking down on the earth.

There was a lot of people in the temple that was about to be completed, and the workers were busy doing the final finishing work.

Most of these people have their upper body naked and their skin is dark.

It was completely different from the healthy and beautiful honey-colored skin of the upper-class nobles. It was an ugly black that was rough and tanned by strong light, and there were many scars on the body.

The overseers were constantly waving their whips and slamming them heavily on the slower people.

Seeing Garlan’s eyes fall on those people, the Archon explained with a smile.

“His Royal Highness, those are all slaves.”

Gallan didn’t answer, his eyes swept across the magnificent temple.

He said: “It cost a lot of money to build this temple, right?”

The consul hurriedly replied: “The funds allocated from the finances are not much, and the cost of building the temple is jointly donated by the citizens of Tozes.” He added.

“Most of the money was donated by those businessmen last night.”

“Those are the biggest local businessmen?”

“Yes, they are all honorary citizens of Tozes. They often donate money to build bridges and pave roads. They have also opened several Anji Institutes to provide relief to the elderly and the disabled.”

The consul smiled and said, “Look, there is a family over there.”

Garlan looked in the direction pointed by the archon and nodded slightly.

After seeing Shamash Temple, the Archon took him to the harbor.

Tozes’s harbour is divided into military and civilian use. Along the way, you can see that large and small civilian harbours are bustling with boats and boats, and crowds on the docks are very lively.

Tozes was often attacked by pirates because of the prosperous trade.

Therefore, the Aaron Landis Army here is dominated by the navy, supplemented by infantry.

King Camos allowed him to leave one third of Tozes’ tax revenues each year for the maintenance and expansion of the Tozes Navy.

Unlike the cavalry of Aaron Landis, the sea soldiers of Aaron Landis did not have armor, but wore dark blue commoners with leather armor only at key points.

Because Tozes is the most important seaport of Aaron Landis, there are three fleets stationed here.

The consul is only responsible for administering the town, and has only the power to advise the army but not the power to interfere. All the military power of Aaron Landis is directly under King Camos.

At this moment, the commander in charge of these several fleets waited in the military port with three captains.

When they saw Garlan, they leaned over and bowed on one knee to salute.

Gallan’s gaze paused for a while on the middle-aged commander’s face, then moved away, smiling and saying a few official words of praise to them. Then, under the leadership of the consul’s place, and accompanied by these generals, he watched it in the military port.

In the military port, Garland and his team saw a large number of warships moored in the port.

There are large and small warships, light three-masted ships, and heavy large radial ships. Among them, the most mighty and majestic one is sixty to seventy meters long, and there are hundreds of oars on both sides alone. They are divided into three layers and arranged on both sides from top to bottom. NS.

The huge battleship made Tar, who saw the giant battleship for the first time, let out a wow exclamation, tusk.

Just when Gallan and his party were watching the giant battleship, one of the people behind them had a look that was not quite right.

It was a mature general with short dark brown hair. He was one of the three captains. His complexion was very dark. He was the kind of black and vicissitudes that wandered on the sea all the year round, exposed to the sun and the sea breeze.

He has thick eyebrows and thick lips, a rough-skinned face with sharp edges and corners, a broad forehead, and a sense of determination in his eyes.

Along the way, he was full of thoughts, silent, as if thinking about something. The people next to him seemed to push him aside intentionally or unintentionally, telling him not to get too close to the prince.

The general was muffled for a long time, until Garlan was about to leave the military port, his gaze condensed, as if he had made up his mind.

Ignoring the warning glances of his colleagues around him, he strode forward suddenly, stopped in front of Garlan, and knelt down.

“His Royal Highness, Seth, Captain of the Seventh Fleet of Aaron Landis, has something important to report to you.”

The sudden behavior of the middle-aged general caused the voices of the people who were talking and laughing harmoniously. The consul frowned and looked at the leading middle-aged commander.

The commander stepped forward, his face solemnly cold, and said solemnly: “Captain Seth, you are too presumptuous in front of the Prince Palace.”

He stared at Seth sternly.

“Get me back right away and prepare to be punished!”

“I will accept any punishment, but before that, your Royal Highness, please listen to my report.”

Seth’s complexion remained unchanged, with a resolute look on his resolute face, and he eagerly cast his expectant eyes on Garlan.

Garlan pondered for a moment, and then asked.

“Tell me first, is what you want to say has something to do with the fleet?”

“yes, I……”

“Then don’t say it.”

The blond prince interrupted Seth and said sternly.

“All military matters are decided by Brother Wang. Without Brother Wang’s permission, no one can intervene in the army, and I am no exception.”

After he finished speaking, he didn’t look at anyone, and walked away quickly, as if he was afraid of getting something on it.

Those who were left looked at each other, knowing the meaning of Gallan’s words.

All the military power of Aaron Landis is directly under King Camos. Although Prince Garland is now the first heir, if he has the slightest involvement in military power, he will probably attract the king’s attention and even dissatisfaction.

After all, military power has always been the most feared thing for kings since ancient times.

That’s why Prince Garland categorically refused, and immediately waved away, obviously not wanting to be jealous of King Camos.

Seth knelt on one knee, staring blankly at the back of the leaving prince, his whole figure frozen in place like a stone sculpture.

A blond knight with a blindfold came to him, looked down at him, stretched out his hand, and pressed it on his shoulder.

He snorted. He was kneeling on one knee. After being pressed so hard by Kayjos, his other knee fell to the ground with a bang. He put his hands on the ground all of a sudden, and barely managed to avoid being crushed on the ground.

Obviously, the prince’s guardian knight was dissatisfied with the prince’s rudeness and imposed punishment on him.

After the punishment was over, Kaihuos released his hand, turned and hurried to chase the prince.

The middle-aged commander coldly squinted Seth, who looked a little embarrassed, and stopped paying attention to him, then turned and left.

The others also glanced at Seth with the same look of fools and dead people, and hurriedly followed in the footsteps of the prince.

They all know that with this one, this guy is probably going to die.

Seth, who was left behind by the crowd, was still kneeling on the ground, his eyes blank, and the whole person looked desperate.

After a long time, he smiled bitterly, as if laughing at himself.

A good friend persuaded him for a long time and told him not to believe the rumors of the so-called “wise prince”, but he still went his own way… and sure enough, he was still too naive.

In the howling sea breeze, Seth slowly stood up and walked heavily toward the depths of the military port.

The lonely figure looked very sad.

After a while, there was a sudden movement in this quiet place.

Something is chasing the direction Seth left.

…

“His Royal Highness, don’t be angry, because that kind of reckless and rude guy is not worth it to be angry, or else, let Your Excellency Cyjos teach him…”

After trotting and chasing Garlan, who was walking fast, Taer was very dissatisfied with the rough man who made his Royal Highness angry.

Garlan glanced at him and suddenly said, “Tal, don’t you think that the navy commander is familiar?”

“Have it?”

The little fat man scratched his head. He patronized the giant warship, not paying attention to those people.

“Yeah.” The one-eyed knight next to him nodded slightly. “It’s a bit familiar.”

He wanted to say something, but at this time the people behind had already caught up. He smiled and did not continue.

The Archon and the others hurriedly followed up, surrounded Gallan for a long time, apologized continuously, and promised to deal with the captain named Seth. This made Gallan’s face calm down and smiled again.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After leaving the military port, it was already halfway through the afternoon. The consul asked Garlan where he would like to patrol. Garlan thought for a while.

He said: “Since I promised the businessman to come to visit yesterday, I just go now.”

The archon nodded, called the waiting carriage, and graciously helped the prince into the carriage.

Yesterday, I pretended to refuse, but today I can’t wait to go to see the little beauty.

With a smile on his face, he thought to himself and snorted.

Although the prince is young, he is also a man after all, and he cannot avoid being tempted by beauty.

He got into the luxurious carriage again, and Garland closed his eyes for a while and took a nap. The carriage crossed the street surrounded by soldiers and drove to the mansion of the rich businessman yesterday.

It was already evening, and the middle-aged businessman who got the news had already waited respectfully at the door with everyone, welcoming the prince with a smile on his face.

After getting out of the carriage, Garland looked up and glanced.

He heard the sound of waves hitting the shore faintly, and what appeared before his eyes was a huge mansion.

It is not even inferior to the size of Tozes’s ruling hall, but it is more luxurious and luxurious.

It was built on the seaside with pleasant scenery, towering majestically on the high stone ground, carved with tall pavilions, and even a tall tower stands in it.

The roof seems to be soaked with gold dust, and the setting sun shines with golden light and is extremely gorgeous.

The corners of his lips rose slightly, and Garlan retracted his gaze and walked into the merchant’s mansion surrounded by the crowd.

The evening is a feast, a bit more luxurious than yesterday.

All kinds of delicacies and delicacies are presented like flowing water, and after only a few mouthfuls, they are removed and replaced with new ones, completely different delicacies like flowing water. The middle-aged businessman had been paying attention to Garlan’s expression, watching Garlan’s eating and looking very happy, so he laughed happily.

When the meal was finished, it was already dark, and the middle-aged businessman took the opportunity to keep Garlan in his home for the night.

Gallan hesitated, the little beauty who was next to the businessman glanced at him shyly, the young man’s gaze paused, and he nodded hesitantly.

Tarlton, who was eating with a round belly next to him, was very anxious. He stared at the charming little beauty fiercely, wishing to pull it away from His Highness’s eyes.

Seeing the prince’s reaction, he was frightened.

When he was assigned to rest in the bedroom, the thing that worries Tal the most finally happened.

I saw that shameless middle-aged businessman bowed to His Royal Highness and said with a smile: “Since your Royal Highness is staying here today, and you can’t help but hit the sun, let the little lady serve you tonight, right?”

Taer was shocked.

As soon as he turned his head and saw the prince hanging his head, he seemed to be hesitant but moved a little, he immediately leaned in to persuade the prince to refuse.

However, he really made it, and he was fat again. Before he could squeeze through hard, he heard the shameless and beautiful girl yelling to his Royal Highness in a shy manner.

The sound is like a string, with a hint of vibrato, plucking people’s hearts.

Then, Taer looked at his Highness with dumbfounded eyes and nodded.

He stood there blankly, watching his Royal Highness enter the room with the girl, the door closed in front of his eyes.

The middle-aged businessman left with a smile and contentment.

Before leaving, he asked the servants to retreat. Don’t get too close here tonight, so as not to interfere with your highness’ good deeds.

Tal got angry and grabbed Kayjos’s arm, who was about to turn around and leave.

“Master Kayjos! You can’t just watch—the prince—he—he—”

He was so anxious that he stammered.

“That won’t work!”

The blonde knight looked carelessly, and glanced at him indifferently with his green eyes.

“Tal, Your Highness is no longer young, and it’s normal to find a woman to serve. You’d better not be nosy, or you will get angry with Your Highness, and you may be driven away directly.”

After speaking, he waved Taer’s hand away, yawned indifferently, turned around and went into the next room, slammed the door shut, as if he was going to rest.

Tal stayed in place for a long time, and finally walked into the house on the other side sadly.

He was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

He stared at the ceiling blankly, feeling very uncomfortable.

Sir Khos Knight is right, they are all men, and he also knows that if he disturbs His Royal Highness on that kind of thing, it will definitely make His Highness angry.

But……

Thinking of the look leaking from the girl’s eyebrows, his heart felt like fire again.

Although he was young, he had already met all kinds of people in the palace.

He could see that the girl seemed to have pure brows and eyes, but she was a carnivorous type at all. The expression in her eyes when she looked at His Royal Highness was almost like a jackal trying to swallow His Highness.

After tossing around on the bed for a long while, Taer sat up abruptly, gritted his teeth, his heart succumbed.

Don’t care, die and die!

Can’t care so much!

Even if he was driven away by His Highness, he would not allow the kind of girls who weren’t sincere and purposeful to defile his pure and noble His Royal Highness!

When he was indecisive, he shrank his hands, but once he made up his mind, the little fat man acted immediately.

The door of the prince’s room must have been locked from the inside. Because the prince’s room was next door, Taer thought about whether to climb from his own window sill to the window sill of the prince’s room, so he ran to the window sill of his own room and took a probe.

…Damn, good, so tall.

The little fat man, who was a little afraid of heights, shuddered back.

He rolled his eyes around, thought about it, looked around in the room, found a sharp object, and then opened the door.

After probing his head at the door for a while, he looked at no one around, and ran to the prince’s closed room.

Fortunately, since he was young, he wanted to find gossip to make the prince happy. He liked to secretly listen to news in the palace. In order to drill everywhere, he practiced the unique skill of secretly opening the door with one hand.

Just do it, the little fat man started to pry the door.

After a short while, with a slight click, the door opened.

Taer gently pushed the door open, and sneaked a head in first, intending to see the situation first.

However, at this sight, he immediately rushed to the head and angered.

I saw the big bed in the room with the girl’s graceful and soft body lying on its side, pulling the clothes that fell on the prince’s elbow with one hand, as if tilting her head against the prince’s left shoulder.

While the prince was sitting sideways, the clothes on his right shoulder were torn apart and slipped off his arms, and the beautifully-lined shoulders and the small half of his white chest were exposed in the light.

An angry Taer jumped three feet tall in an instant, and rushed in without thinking about it, like a fat hen guarding a calf, his hair exploded.

He pushed the girl softly leaning against Garlan away.

Only a bang was heard, and the girl fell out of the bed with a jerky push by Taer.

She lay face down on the floor, motionless like a piece of wood.

Garlan was taken aback, and when he turned his head, he saw Taer’s big round face flushed with anger.

He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could say it, Tal grabbed him by the shoulder.

The little fat man looked at the torn clothes of his Royal Highness, the top half of his shirtless appearance, his chest twitched with distress.

“His Royal Highness, blame me, I am late!”

He looked sad and angry.

“What did this woman do to you? Did she give you—”

Gallan was a little dizzy by him.

“Uh…Tal, calm down first…”

The little fat man who had fallen into his delusion and was so angry that he didn’t hear Gallan’s words and continued to blame himself.

“Blame me! Blame me! Your highness wow wow wow wow, I’m sorry, I should have come earlier.”

Taer clung to Garlan’s shoulders and didn’t let go, gritted his teeth, his fat face looked a bit hideous.

The thought of the pure prince being murdered by that woman, his tears almost fell.

“I’m sorry you—”

At this moment, there was a sudden squeak, and a small black figure got in from the open window sill.

The little black mouse ran into the room, stood upright, curled his two front paws, tilted his head and looked at the two people in the room, with a puzzled look in his dark Doudou eyes.

In the next second, the man who followed the black mouse in the dark turned over the window sill and stepped into the room.

As soon as he looked up, he saw the situation in front of him, and he was dazed.

The girl lying motionless on the ground.

It was obvious that the prince was attacked, his clothes were messy, and even his shirt was torn.

The fat man I saw in the morning was forced in front of the prince, holding the prince’s shoulders with both hands, with a hideous look on his face.

The middle-aged general who held incomparable loyalty to the royal family of Aaron Landis instantly burst into blue veins on his forehead.

With a bang, the sharp sword on his waist was unsheathed.

He stepped forward, brushing it, and the blade of the sword hit Taer’s neck.

“Bastard thing! What do you want to do to the prince!”

The man lowered his voice and yelled angrily, staring at Taer as he burst into flames.

“How dare you do such a shameless behavior to your Highness!”

Had it not been for the fear that this filthy fellow would violently injure the prince, he would have chopped it down with a single sword.

He looked at Tal angrily and snarled in a low voice.

“If you don’t want to die, let go of your dirty hands immediately!”

As soon as the scolded Tal heard the man half a sentence, his attention was completely drawn by the sword drawn by the man. His head was full of silver swords, and he didn’t hear the few words behind the man. The roar of the voice.

There are assassins!

This idea flashed through Tarr’s mind for a moment.

The dazzling sword light made his legs straighten and soft.

But when he thought that His Royal Highness was behind him, he gritted his teeth and opened his hands to block Garlan in front of him.

“With me, you don’t want to hurt Your Highness!”

Garlan, who was behind him: “…”

I just wished that a certain general of Tal had been smashed with a sword: “???”

Taer, whose legs were too weak, plucked up all his courage and stared fiercely at the assassin who wanted to assassinate His Royal Highness in front of him, and wanted to kill him with his eyes, but suddenly felt that the assassin was familiar…

…………Um?

Isn’t this the admiral who recklessly knelt in front of His Royal Highness in the military harbor in the afternoon and said that he had something to report?

Why is it here?

Taer was stunned by the sword against his throat.

The little black mouse, who was forgotten by the side, tilted his head and looked at the people in the room, squeaked, and raised his beard.

Then, as if it had smelled something, he turned his little head and looked at the window sill where he had just crawled in.

On the high wall outside, there was a slender figure sneaking up from the next window sill in the dark.

With a vigorous turn, he climbed neatly on the window sill of this room, then rolled over and landed in the room lightly.

Looking up, the blond knight was startled by the mess in the room.

With his gaze swept away, Kaihus showed a clear look, and he whistled softly.

“You are really lively here, Your Highness.”

Gallan: “…It’s quite lively.”

I’m going on a business trip tomorrow, so I will release tomorrow’s together in this chapter.

Oh, love me.
