Vol 2 Chapter 56: , Treacherous

Treacherous
Finally, back to the wind and sand.
This city is now immersed in victory and triumph.
Since the victory, then the next thing to do is naturally a celebration banquet. The victory brought by the king himself is beyond words. Naturally, there are lights and colorful lights in the city, and the already prepared festive atmosphere looks more grand than the Holy Eve festival.
This celebration event should be held for a long time. Everyone who blows the sand can participate in it. Everyone cheered, colliding with the wine glasses in their hands, and shouting happily, adding color to the celebration.
Of course, this event is not just a celebration. Because in addition to drinking to celebrate work, there is one most important thing to deal with. Moreover, people are also looking forward to how this matter will be handled.
Evil fire? The trial of Frihus.
As the two princes who were treasonous, how will the current Buck King deal with his younger brother? Should he be pushed to the gallows, or ordered to dictate himself and get a decent funeral?
Everyone is looking forward to it, from the gamblers on the streets to the nobles, everyone is talking about the fate of the prince, his wife, and his children. Some people laugh and others worry, but no matter how they discuss, the final decision of the matter still rests in the hands of the king.
Inside the castle--
"Duzad" with hemiplegia and a mask on his face was sitting in a wheelchair. After so long of cultivation, his body seems to have improved a lot, and finally his life is no longer in danger.
Because of his accomplishments, the King of Bucks arranged for him to live in the VIP room of the castle where only princes and nobles could stay overnight. Many male servants and maids take care of every day.
The name of this warrior who fought 8,000 people alone and captured the Evil Fire Prince alive has spread throughout the city, and it is a pity for people. It's a pity that his strength was destroyed once, and he can only become a useless person from now on. However, some people are a little relieved while being a pity, because without his cheating-like existence, there will be no big waves in his officialdom. Therefore, the life of this disabled soldier is very peaceful every day, no one deliberately embarrassed him, but many greetings, not a few.
night.
Several maids served the soldier and carried him to bed. One of the maids had just arrived, so she tried to unchain the man's right arm. But after trying it for a while, it failed. After hearing the introduction of other maids, she stopped and covered him with a quilt.
this is……
"His Royal Highness Princess Arrives"
The soldier outside the door made a notification, and the maids in the room stepped back and knelt towards the arriving walnut. The walnut rushing into the door made them stand up very casually. She looked at the immobile person on the bed, and she couldn't help feeling sore. But she still managed to maintain her calm expression and sat on the side of the bed.
"Are you the warrior with one enemy eight thousand?"
"Duzad" on the bed looked at Walnut, but did not speak. The maid next to him stepped forward and said, "His Royal Highness, the hero's throat is damaged, so there is almost no sound."
Walnut was suffocated in her stomach and wanted to vent, but she couldn't make it out when she saw "Duzad". Now, with so many people around, she can come to visit the injured hero as a princess, but she can't risk being gossiped by others and distract these maids and leave them alone in a room. This contradictory scene made her think more and more frustrated, and her fists couldn't help but squeeze.
"It's really hard for you. Don't worry, we can cure you with all the manpower and material resources of our royal family."
He said so, but Walnut was already cursing secretly in his heart. What the are you idiot? Why do you make yourself like this? The buns are also true. After I heard that you are not worried at all, but you still eat super spicy pizza at home? Are you father and daughter endless? Will you die if you tell me something?
Princess...? "
Seeing Walnut staring at "Duzad", the maid's eyes became more and more unkind from the beginning, and seemed to be angry. Unable to feel a little worried, he asked.
Walnut was startled, and then he came back to his senses. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine.... By the way, I heard that my brother has been visiting him for the past two days?"
"Yes, your Royal Highness the princess. Your Majesty is very concerned about this hero and hopes that we can take good care of it."
"Oh...then...then...you can take care of it..."
"Yes."
Walnut squinted her eyes, sweeping across the faces of these maids. Having said that, a maid who can work in the royal family, of course, must be a beautiful woman, right? Now look at the maids responsible for taking care of this "idiot". Although it cannot be said that each of them has the beauty of "Sister Rooney, the first beauty in the sand," they are all beautiful. Let this person live with these beautiful women all day... and... let them serve him...
"Humph"
Thinking of this, Walnut couldn't help gritting his teeth, glaring at the idiot viciously, and turned around to leave.
"Huh? Walnut? Are you coming to visit Mr. Morrill too?"
Just when Walnut was about to leave, three people walked in. One of them was a young woman who was slightly younger than Walnut, dressed as an adult, holding a toddler boy in her left hand. The other hand of the little boy was pulling a brave blond male.
"Fragrant pomelo?"
These three are not others. The blond man with a smile on his mouth is Dai Lao. For this soldier who dedicated his all to himself, he brought his wife and children to visit today. Just in time, I ran into the walnut who was about to leave.
Dai Lau's wife is a beautiful and kind-hearted girl. After seeing walnut, this woman with blond hair showed a cheerful smile on her face. She stretched out her hand and gently pulled up the skirt to bow to Walnut, but was hurriedly stopped by Walnut.
"Don't be like this, you were also a princess before you got married. We are good sisters. Don't mess with these messy etiquette."
Xiangyou grinned, her soft oval face matched with her smooth golden long hair, anyone would know at a glance that she must be a good wife and a good mother. The little boy with blond hair took his mother's hand, opened his mouth at Walnut, murmured twice, and vomited bubbles.
Dai Lao smiled and said: "Yes, the princess is not a very strict person. You are good sisters, there is no need to be so restrained after marrying me."
Walnut glared at Dai Lao. She still had no liking for this man. But it was a pity that her best friend liked this man who looked very beautiful. But no way, who told others to like it? I only hope that in the future, she will not regret whether she has taken a look away...
"Come on, Xiangyou, let me introduce to you. This is the soldier I have been mentioning to you, the warrior who has made the most achievements in this battle. Mr. Duzad Morrill."
De Laura passed his wife and children, came to the bedside of "Duzad" and introduced them. At this time, "Duzade" wanted to straighten up and salute, Dai Lao quickly walked up and pressed him to the bed with a gentle smile on his face.
"It's okay, you don't need to get up, just lie down."
"I... Ho De... How can..."
The soldier on the bed opened his mouth and spoke in a voice so small that he could hardly hear him. Dai Lao put his ear to his mouth. After hearing what he said, he shook his head quickly and said, "Don't worry, you are my chief staff officer. You naturally enjoy a different etiquette from others."
"Duzad"'s eyes were red, and tears of excitement were about to fall again. At this time, Dai Lao quickly took a tissue, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and smiled: "What's the matter? Don't be so excited. If a man has tears, don't flick, don't do that."
"I...favored...if surprised..."
"Don't rush to say such things. Actually, coming today, I have a more important thing to ask you. If you can agree, I will be flattered."
Having said this, Dai Lao turned around and waved to his young son. Xiangyou nodded to the walnut beside him, and pulled their son over.
"Come on, Nero, hello to Uncle Duzad."
The little Nero was hiding behind Dai Lao and looked a little scared after looking at the man on the bed. But finally, he nodded and said timidly: "Hello, uncle..."
"Hey. Actually, Duzad, I came here today to ask you for something. Can you adopt my son as a righteous son?"
The pupils of the soldier on the bed instantly dilated and his excited body trembled even more. When Dai Lao saw this, he quickly stepped forward and took his hand to prevent him from panic.
"I... I... am... disabled how... can... be able to... monk... master... favor?"
"No, as a person, it doesn't mean that only strength is the first. I know that your strength is now gone, but I am sincere. Apart from wanting to express my gratitude to you Besides, I want my son to follow you and learn various strategies."
When the walnut on the side heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore. She originally wanted to drink a lot, but for the sake of Fragrant Pomelo's presence, she couldn't yell, she could only say in a weird manner: "What do you mean? What strategy?"
Without a glance at Walnut, Dai Lao continued to stare at "Du Zade", and said: "I heard that your Majesty has been visiting you a few days ago. During the chat, you suggested to your Majesty that now the war has just ended and everything is ready Therefore, it is proposed to distribute the railway from the original state to public ownership, to conduct public bidding and private management, right?"
"Duzad" nodded.
Dai Lau smiled and squeezed his hand tighter.
The railway public bidding, at first glance this matter seems fair. But in the entire Bucks, who still has the financial resources to compete with the Goodsey family? The Norius family suffered tragic changes last summer. Members of the family suffered heavy casualties and lost a lot of strength. Nowadays, it is of course impossible to compete with the Goodsey family.
In other words, as long as the railway conducts public bidding, from now on, the entire railway line of the Bucks Empire will be controlled by the Goodsey family. There is no need to elaborate on the magnitude of the benefits.
"I have asked your Majesty many times for this matter, but due to my identity, I still can't say it clearly. Duzad, you have done so many things for me, but I... there is really nothing to repay you. . Really speaking, it is how I can have a good subordinate like you, not that you are not qualified to enjoy this honor."
"Therefore, my wife and I agreed to let you be Nero's foster father and teacher. It is absolutely correct. I hope you can pass on your knowledge and judgment to him so that he can become a Like you, a capable and visionary decision maker."
Little Nero was pulling on the bed sheet, with his little head attached to the bed, and looking at "Duzade" ah oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, the soldier couldn't help but tears of excitement fell from the corner of his eyes again after looking at the child , Finally, reluctantly nodded.
Dai Lao happily picked up his child and asked him to call him "Duzade" godfather. The little child refused at first, but after hesitating for a while, he finally called out. The Xiangyou next to him was also very happy, holding Walnut's hand and looking at her husband in admiration. Walnut was a little dumbfounded, resisting the twitching of his face, barely squeezing out a smile.
"Talk slowly, I won't be with you."
Walnut flicked his sleeve and planned to leave. Xiangyou was a little puzzled and asked what was wrong. Walnut didn't say anything, and walked outside. Seeing this, Dai Lao smiled and said--
"Xiangyou, you take Nero and the princess to chat, I and our child's godfather still have some business affairs to talk about."
Xiangyou responded to Dai Lao with a smile. Then, she took the child out of the door, dragged a sullen-faced walnut to the next reception room, and chatted while drinking evening tea.
After the wife and princess had left, Dai Lao glanced at the maids and male servants around him and pushed them all away. After he slammed the door of the room shut, in the entire room, only Dai Lao and "Duzad" who were immobile on the bed were left.
The air at night seemed a little cold.
Only in the room where these two people are located, it seems to have swept away the excitement just now.
Dai Lao paced slowly, came to "Duzad"'s bed, and sat down.
He raised his head and stared at the ceiling. It seems to be thinking about something.
And "Duzad" was also lying silently, his jet black eyes staring straight at him, as if waiting for something...
"Now, you are the foster father of my child. I think I should be able to put my heart down with you."
There was a little hesitation in Dai Lao’s golden pupils. He propped his chin and slowly said: "Now, I have a problem. Evil Fire, this person is very important to your Majesty, although their two brothers are incompatible , And various situations make it impossible for them to reconcile as before. However, I clearly feel that in these days, since Xie Huo woke up from a coma, His Majesty has been visiting his room all day long."
"Maybe you don't know, but Xie Huo is a person who is very dissatisfied with me. I am worried...In case, your Majesty is soft-hearted, and Xie Huo is scheming, maybe he will persuade your Majesty to spare his life. In this case, everything I do in the future is equivalent to being under his watch again, which is really unfavorable to me."
Dai Lao put his hands on his knees and slowly grasped. He looked at "Duzad" seriously, and said sincerely, "Then, my brother, what should I do now? I want to persuade your Majesty. I can't relent. But to be honest, this is the situation now. If I go to say this, the directivity is too obvious. In case of unsuccessfulness, then in the future, there will be more suspicions between my Majesty and I for no reason."
"Now, can you give me any advice? Tell me, how should I make a decision now?"
Dai Lao's eyes were very sincere, humble and full of humility. After listening to these words, "Duzad" slowly closed his eyes and thought.
This silence has been going on all the time, silence...silence...it has always been silence.
As time passed, Dai Lao showed enough patience in this room where there was no third person. He knew that this person was thinking, and he had the most reason to think about this choice that could determine the future and destiny of the Goodsey family.
ten minutes……
twenty minutes……
thirty minutes……
One hour……
Finally, this silence lasted for an hour. after this……
"Du Zade"'s eyes finally opened. And Dai Lao also pressed his ear to his mouth anxiously, listening with bated breath...
"Persuade...they...reconcile..."
Dai Lao frowned, obviously, this was not the answer he wanted.
"Then... ten days later... at the... celebration party..."
Dai Lao was stunned for a moment, put aside his dissatisfaction, and continued to listen.
"Poison... kill... Mudu? Fuli... Hughes."
Everything has become quieter.
Outside the window, it seemed that a drizzle began to float.
The summer rain... still hasn't ended.
And the coldness of autumn began to slowly spread, filling everyone's heart...
"I do not quite understand."
Dai Lao said slowly.
"Poison kill... Your Majesty... You... on the ground that Evil Fire wants to... usurp the throne... immediately... arrest him... kill..."
"Next...support... King... His Royal Highness... ascended the throne..."
"Furthermore,...Her Royal Highness... was young... not yet able to handle... affairs independently... and... assisted..."
"So...you...you are not a king...but...have real power..."
"Take the young emperor... to make the whole country..."
"And then... no matter... whether it's siege of cities or land... or... internal affairs... all in the name of... the young emperor..."
"Wait... after we... pass away... let... Nero... become a... real..."
"king"
The sound of rain, patter.
Thunder and lightning, staggered.
The silent Dai Lao and the whispering "Du Zade" were frozen in this room.
Only the sword on Dai Lao's waist is left, but now, it exudes bursts of sorrow... It seems, like crying in despair... A
