A Tale of Strategies For the Throne

Although it is not an official government affairs hall, it is just a room where government affairs are temporarily handled on weekdays, but the area is also very spacious, and it will not feel crowded even if it accommodates dozens of people.

But at this moment, this spacious government room was eerily quiet.

The shocking scene in front of them completely stopped everyone's brains.

Except for those two people who knew it well, everyone else felt like they were sleepwalking.

dream?

Well, they must be dreaming.

Ahhhh, what a strange dream. How could they dream about King Garlan and that Lord Heimos...

Then, there was a dull thud.

The heavy golden scepter hit the bluestone floor hard, and the impact was deafening, suddenly waking up all the sluggish people.

Everyone had expressions of disbelief on their faces. They looked up at the scene on the high platform that almost shattered their views. They opened their mouths but couldn't say a word for a long time.

Novi, who had already rushed up to the high platform, looked a little overwhelmed. After staying for a while, he kept the posture of rushing up and stepped back step by step.

After he retreated under the high platform, he pursed his lips and lowered his eyes, staring at his feet. His handsome face looked expressionless, but the tips of his ears hidden in the fluffy hair were clearly a little red.

The person who was awakened by the loud bang of the scepter falling to the ground was also Heimos who was kissed unexpectedly.

It was obvious that just a moment ago, when he leaned towards Garlan, there was still a dangerous aura around him.

But when Garlan grabbed his chin, pulled his face down and kissed his lips, he was completely stunned.

He opened his eyes, and his pupils shrank violently into thin pinpricks.

The man's dazed and confused look at this moment gave people a kind of cute and cute feeling.

After the kiss, Garlan couldn't help but laugh when he looked at Heimos's appearance, which he had never seen before.

He did this kind of thing without saying hello to Heimos. He actually did it on purpose, just because he wanted to see Heimos being shocked like this.

What he saw also made Garlan very satisfied.

Well, it can be used as a joke for him for a long time to come.

And just when Garlan started laughing, Heimos, who was awakened by the sound of the scepter hitting the ground, came back to his senses.

Looking at the curved golden eyes and the eyes looking at him with a smile, his eyes that were blank a second ago suddenly became deep, and then he narrowed his eyes and stared at Garlan fiercely.

Just wait for me.

Heimos, who was severely teased by Garlan, conveyed this meaning with a sinister look in his eyes.

However, the eyes that should have been used to scare the other party did not have any effect. Garlan looked up at him, and his bright golden eyes blinked gently and innocently, making Heimos look at him again. It was funny, and my heart became soft.

His chest, which was so sore as if corroded by venom, was filled with a sudden surge of warmth, which easily calmed his anxiety and uneasiness.

That warm and swollen feeling filled his body, and his heart seemed to be wrapped by the softest thing in the world, making him seem to be assimilated, and his whole person became softer.

Heimos lowered his head and gently kissed Garlan's lips back.

The man's golden red eyes were so gentle that they seemed to melt at this moment.

Perhaps at this time, everything is no longer important except the person in front of you.

"prince!"

A loud shout broke the silence in the room.

At this moment, High Priest Shamash no longer cared about the scepter that he had always cherished very much, and stepped forward quickly.

His face was extremely pale.

In fact, he who always abides by etiquette unexpectedly shouted out the incorrect title of 'prince' out of control. You can imagine how angry and out-of-control he is now.

As soon as the livid-faced Shemuer walked under the high platform, he was stopped by Caihos who was standing there.

"Step aside!"

"...Your Excellency Shermu'er, I can understand your mood."

Kayhos was actually a little helpless.

He really understood Xie Muer's current mood.

When he first knew about this, he was definitely not much better than Shermer now.

If it hadn't been for the accident in Kanal King's City and knowing His Majesty's thoughts, he would never have allowed that guy to get close to His Majesty.

However, since His Majesty has made a decision, for His Majesty's sake, he can only protect His Majesty's decision.

"But please calm down now."

Keep standing in front of Shermour, Kehos said.

"Otherwise, in your current state, I will not allow you to approach His Majesty."

He looked directly at Shermer, his eyes sharp, like a warning.

"Also, please don't forget, that is not a 'prince', but a 'Your Majesty'."

Kayhos's last words finally allowed the high priest who almost went berserk to regain some sense.

Shermuel took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and tried to calm down his almost out-of-control emotions.

Then, he raised his head and looked deeply at Garlan.

"Your Majesty... are you serious?"

On the throne, the young king looked at him.

"Yes." Garlan said, "Shemur, it is impossible for me to tell such a lie."

The anger in his heart suddenly weakened a lot the moment he met Garlan's eyes.

Perhaps it was because those golden eyes that looked at him without evasion looked at him too calmly.

…

It's always been like this.

The eyes of this child he had grown up with had always been so bright, looking at him so directly at all times.

There was even a hint of hope in his eyes.

Shemu'er understood what the glint of expectation in Gallan's eyes meant when he looked at him.

Perhaps because he grew up with him as a mentor when he was a child, Garlan has always respected him even after he sat on the throne and became the supreme king.

He sees himself as a teacher.

...Isn't that what I am doing?

He accompanied the little child to grow up little by little, just like his own child.

Even though he has grown up, even though he has ascended the throne as a king, in Shemuer's heart, Garlan is still the young child who needed his care and companionship.

He was his pride, his most precious treasure, as important as his belief in Shamash.

He wanted to stay with him and guard him until the last moment.

He seemed to be harsh to him.

Everyone said he was unkind.

But only Shemuer himself knew that as long as he was in front of Garlan, he would always be soft-hearted unconsciously.

Especially when Garlan looked at him like this.

With Garlan looking at him like that, the anger in the high priest's eyes gradually dissipated and turned into complex emotions.

"His Majesty……"

Countless complicated and turbulent emotions can only be reduced to these two words.

Having watched Garlan grow up, Shemuer naturally understood Garlan.

To make a public announcement like this, he must have made up his mind completely.

Prince... No, Your Majesty is serious.

He really wanted to tell everyone his true feelings, instead of covering it up with ridiculous lies like those at the Hana Yujie dinner.

Even if this is something that will cause an uproar, cause everyone to talk about it, and even be criticized by countless people.

He was actually willing to do this for Heimos...

When he thought of this, for some reason, instead of being angry, there was another indescribable sour emotion welling up in Xie Muer's heart.

This strange sour mood made him sullen and didn't want to talk.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Sage finally came to his senses. He looked at Garlan and then at Heimos, stammering a bit as he spoke.

"You and Mr. Heimos are both male. It seems...it seems..."

He said,

"Please think carefully again. If you are unable to continue the heir and have no heir to the throne, it is likely to cause turmoil in Aaron Landis and cause unrest among the people."

"Sage, when Brother Camos was here, he had no princess and no heirs. But the throne was not unstable because of this, and no people were uneasy about it."

"That's because of you, so..."

"But I am not the heir of Brother Wang, nor am I related by blood."

Sitting on the throne, Garlan looked at the leader of his knights calmly.

He asked, "In your opinion, am I qualified as the king of Aaron Landis?"

Sage looked stern.

"Your Majesty, your achievements as king are praised by all."

He replied solemnly.

Under the leadership of King Garlan, in just a few years, Aaron Landis has reached unprecedented prosperity, and its territory has also expanded.

The natives of Aaron Landis live a peaceful and contented life.

The people of Aaron Landis all thanked and praised the young king from the bottom of their hearts.

Even those old-school aristocratic families that were declining day by day because they were deprived of their privileges by King Garlan did not dare to slander them.

"Yes, even if there is no blood relationship, you can still inherit the throne and become an excellent king."

Gallan said,

"So even if I can't have any heirs in the future, I can still select an outstanding collateral descendant of the royal family like Brother Camos, cultivate them into talents, and let them inherit the throne. This can also ensure the stable succession of the throne, right? "

"…………"

The choked Sage thought for a long time and didn't know how to refute.

Not only Sage, but also several other ministers who originally wanted to oppose Garlan's approach also fell silent instantly.

Because if they said that a bloodless successor was not orthodox enough, it would be tantamount to questioning the legitimacy of King Garlan's succession.

Everyone here at this moment is a die-hard supporter of King Garlan.

Of course no one would say such stupid things.

After looking at each other for a long time, You Sixiang, the oldest among them and a veteran of four dynasties, spoke.

"Your Majesty, even if you put aside the issue of heirs, you must know that you have a lofty status in the hearts of the people. They believe in you as if they believe in gods."

You Sixiang's ability to survive through four dynasties and remain standing in the chaos depends on his tact and sophistication.

Even at this time, he did not forget to praise King Garlan first.

The old man stood tremblingly and coughed several times before continuing.

"To the people, you are a just and wise king, just like the incarnation of the sun god Shamash."

He said sincerely,

"It can be said that so far, you have been perfect in their minds, but now..."

Just stop talking to the point. In the middle of what you said, Prime Minister You shut up and stopped talking.

But even if he only spoke half of what he said, everyone present could understand the meaning of his words.

Naturally, Garlan understood.

He looked at Mr. Right and suddenly smiled.

"Yes, as you said, everyone praises me as the King of Justice."

He said,

"But if I can't even give justice to the people I love, what qualifications do I have to continue to be called justice?"

When the words 'loved one' were spoken, the expressions of the people below varied.

Prime Minister You was speechless for a moment.

Standing next to Garlan, Heimos looked at Garlan with eyes that were as bright as the brilliance of thousands of stars.

The blond knight below glanced at the guy unhappily and snorted lightly.

The high priest had a stinky face and didn't even raise his eyes.

"King Garlan."

Beside, Zuo Sixiang, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

"No matter what the reason is, it is a fact that you and Lord Heimos are both men. Our country is different from Tastar. Only men and women are normal. You are like this... It is really difficult for us to agree."

Without any excuses or reasons, Mr. Zuo's words were straightforward and to the point.

"You should know that it is impossible for the people of Aaron Landis to agree with you and Lord Heymos."

The atmosphere was tense for a moment, but was broken by Garlan's smile.

"Agree?"

He said,

"Secretary Zuo, I think you may have made a mistake."

Under Zuo Sixiang's stunned eyes, the smile on Gallan's face faded little by little.

He stared at Zuo Sixiang with a sharp look.

"You and the people you talk about are all my people."

"I never need your approval for what I do."

On the throne, the young king looked down at his people.

"Aaron Landis, this is my country."

"You are my people."

"I am announcing to you, not for you to agree."

King Garlan sat on the throne.

The young face, not a tall body, and the calm voice inexplicably give people a huge sense of pressure.

Wherever his eyes glanced, everyone's chests tightened and they all bowed.

They lowered their heads deeply towards the throne.

Even Zuo Sixiang is like this.

Only the young Wang's voice echoed in the whole room.

"After the ceremony of the gods ends in three days, I will announce it to the world."

That voice was an understatement.

But it was like broken gold and cracked stone, making a sound when it hit the ground.

"It's my decision."

Everyone bowed their heads deeply, and no one refuted.

That’s King Aaron Landis.

No one can go against his will.
