"We want to know what you and His Majesty said, so that he did not punish you at all and let you appear in front of us intact." Nip said seriously.
Ed Qiao glanced at him and said: "Your Majesty is the same as before. He is kind. He knows that we have already received the most severe punishment in a long time, so he treats us criminals lightly. I express my gratitude to him."
Explaining what we have been asking for all these years, he asked us to wait patiently and he would give us the answer we wanted."
Everyone's eyes flickered, and Abraham frowned and said, "What did you explain? What did you brainwash and indoctrinate us back then?"
Joseph looked dissatisfied: "The reason why I supported you in pursuing the secret of the origin of the dragon clan was simply because I had nothing to do and didn't want everyone to fall apart. Do you really think we are interested in this nonsense?"
Nip also frowned and said: "I said back then, there is nothing traceable about this thing. Your Majesty is the source of our dragon clan."
Edjo: "..."
He suddenly missed the days when Mars was here. Mars was always his strongest ally in the Presbyterian Church.
He said expressionlessly: "If you have any objections, please go to your Majesty yourself."
There was silence.
After a long silence, Nip said slowly: "I went to Tokyo on the way here and met that lucky boy."
"Are you talking about the boy in the Mars report who has two bloodmarks?" Joseph asked with interest, "How about that?"
"He is a lucky boy. He is surrounded by a girl he likes, and behind him is the best boss in the world. He is truly a winner in life."
Nip sighed,
"But what I still remember most is that girl. She was a very smart and perceptive girl, and she was quite lovable."
"Before leaving, the girl asked me why I didn't go to see His Majesty in person."
"I said I didn't dare to go because I didn't know how to face him and I was afraid that he would really forget about me."
"Then the girl provoked me with words, saying that I was too timid. Of course I wouldn't care. But then she said, maybe... His Majesty also wants to meet us."
Nip looked around the three of them and said in a soft and erratic voice, "Maybe, I mean maybe, we really should take the initiative to see His Majesty instead of waiting for His Majesty to come to us."
After a brief silence, Abraham was the first to speak: "Based on Ed Joe's experience, we should really consider it seriously."
Edjo didn't argue with this guy who was always unforgiving.
He also whispered: "You should have met the child named Qilan. I met him many times and chatted for a long time. He told me that we should take the initiative to try to understand His Majesty's inner world instead of
We are waiting for His Majesty to tell us everything."
"Actually, I feel a little sorry for Smith."
Adjou looked around at everyone and saw Abraham frowning, but he did not continue to mock the good old man. Joseph looked a little sad, while Nip remained silent.
"After all, His Majesty still liked Smith very much, otherwise he wouldn't have summoned him all the time."
Abraham interrupted: "That's just because Your Majesty likes to hear his stories about distant places."
Ad Qiao ignored him and continued: "Smith also made a special trip to His Majesty's hometown in this life, but he was not able to meet His Majesty until his death. I don't know if there will be a chance to meet next time. Even if there is, it will be
Thousands of years later."
"Remember those words Smith said on the phone?"
"I can't figure it out."
Edjo smiled bitterly and said: "Yeah, how can we figure it out? None of us can understand His Majesty's choice. He is so supreme, the real supreme person in this world, but the only supreme person in this world chooses
It’s a life that we see as ‘self-indulgent’.”
"I sometimes think about it. Maybe it's not that we can't figure it out, but that we can't accept it. We can't accept the reality that we don't understand His Majesty at all."
The rest of the people present were silent.
They either lowered their eyes or tilted their necks back, staring at the patterns on the ceiling in a daze.
Edcho looked at Abraham and said in a low voice: "Abraham, you said that His Majesty just likes to listen to Smith talk about distant scenery and experiences, but why does he never get up and leave that temple? He is the master of the world, he
He can go wherever he wants to go. He can see the distant scenery with his own eyes instead of through other people's descriptions."
Abraham's pupils suddenly shrank.
"I can still think of the day when we met with His Majesty."
Ed Qiao said quietly,
"The door of the temple opened, and the wind chimes hung by Smith himself jingled. His Majesty opened his eyes and looked into the distance behind us, but we thought it was because His Majesty was too lazy to take another look at us."
"We must admit that we never understand His Majesty's true thoughts because he rarely talks to us, but this is not the main reason because we have never tried to truly understand him."
"In the meeting not long ago, His Majesty told me that maybe he is not a qualified king, but we are not qualified ministers either. It is the first time for everyone to think that it is normal to do something bad..."
The uncontrollable aura burst out and spread like cracks under their feet, but the owner of the house did not say a word to stop it.
Everyone lowered their heads and looked pale.
The cool golden color surged in their eyes, and the air was filled with a dangerous and stagnant atmosphere.
But even Edcho couldn't see their true expressions at this moment.
Ed Qiao's light words were deeply rooted in their hearts. The rhizome penetrated into the flesh and blood of the body, grew luxuriantly, and bloomed with bloody flowers. It was like a jagged knife inserted into the heart and stirred. The pain made them say no.
Say a word.
Edcho's description is so realistic that they can easily recall the pictures from those years. Each picture is just like Edcho's description, and ultimately points to the truth——
They never really knew His Majesty.
Adjo looked around at everyone and knew it was time to ask the final question.
He spoke in full at this moment the rant from Nysus about Phrysis against Mars.
This included Frisius calling His Majesty a liar and mocking them all.
Looking at the frowning three people, Adjou concluded: "Frisius had no reason to add fuel to the fire, or to deceive Mars at the time. A considerable part of his words must be true."
After a brief silence, Abraham said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty cannot give Frisis such a choice for no reason."
Joseph said coldly: "Based on what Ed Joe mentioned just now, the answer is obvious. His Majesty does not like that deserted temple. He is indeed yearning for the distant scenery, but he is restricted by some reasons and cannot leave.
Get off the throne."
Edcho nodded slightly: "I couldn't understand at first that His Majesty clearly likes the distant scenery, but never steps down from the throne. But based on what Frisis said, the truth may be half-surfaced. There must be something important.
The reason prevented him from leaving the temple, and in the end he appointed Frisius to kill him!"
Nip suddenly said with murderous intent: "Is someone threatening Your Majesty?"
Ed Qiao frowned slightly: "No one in this world can threaten His Majesty. He is perfect and the strongest."
"This matter is inseparable from Frisis. If what Frisis said is true, then he must be the person chosen by His Majesty and knows the key and truth." Abraham suddenly said.
Edjo sighed: "But we still don't know what Frisis wants to do, and we can't catch him and force him to tell everything."
Everyone fell into silence again.
They guessed the general idea, but couldn't access the deepest secrets.
The only people who know this secret are His Majesty himself and Frisis himself. In their opinion, even Nidhogg may not know it...
"Wouldn't it be better to just ask His Majesty?"
Nip said calmly,
"Weren't we still discussing whether we should take the initiative to see His Majesty?"
"Edjo, didn't you just say that we should take the initiative to try to understand His Majesty's inner world instead of waiting for His Majesty to tell us everything?"
"Everyone, now is the best time."
Everyone nodded slowly in silence.
The moment they nodded, a sense of relief rose from the bottom of their hearts and spread, as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and their minds suddenly became brighter.
They raised their heads and looked at each other, both seeing relief in each other.
From the moment they decided to take the initiative to meet His Majesty, they had partially let go of their past selves.
"When?" Joseph asked.
"Of course, the sooner the better." Abraham said, "I really want to know what your Majesty's attitude is towards Frisis now. If the previous inference is correct, then Frisis is not a traitor but your Majesty's choice.
The successor?"
"It's very simple. Nidhogg does not recognize Francis' status." Edjoe narrowed his eyes and said, "Your Majesty still loves Nidhogg very much. He is his younger brother."
"Let's go when we're ready." Abraham said with a solemn expression, "The situation is very unclear now. We don't know what Frixis is going to do, and we don't understand why Nidhogg has returned but is still able to endure it.
I don’t have the temper to settle accounts with irrationality.”
"Even if it was really His Majesty's will, the conflict between Frisis and Nidhogg could not end so hastily..."
Everyone nodded, this was also the biggest doubt at the moment.
The Corpse Guard Army of Frisis has been openly exposed to the eyes of the whole world, completely lifting the final veil and announcing the existence of the Dragon Clan.
However, Nidhogg, who recovered first than Frisius, disappeared after the announcement that day.
And Your Majesty...
"According to our insiders in Kassel, His Majesty is...traveling around the world." Edjo said in a low voice.
Abraham said calmly: "Obviously, His Majesty does not take Frissis seriously at all, or Frises's plans are all under his control."
However, Joseph said solemnly: "Currently, several countries have dispatched their armies to fight the corpse guards who invaded the country. You said that with His Majesty's temperament in this life, he would really ignore it and let the conflict between dragons and humans go.
Intensify, turn around and travel around the world?”
Nip shook his head and said: "Of course it's impossible, but even if we know there is a problem, we can't guess the real reason behind it. We should wait until we see His Majesty and ask His Majesty directly."
"What should we say first when we see His Majesty?" Joseph said hesitantly.
Everyone looked at Edcho, the lucky man who had met His Majesty not long ago.
Ed Qiao said speechlessly: "You see what I do, how do I know?"
Everyone immediately looked away in disgust and began to express their opinions.
"I remember that Smith guy gave His Majesty a... well, souvenir before he died. Your Majesty seemed to like it very much and wore it to see Ed Joe."
"You mean we each prepare a meeting gift?"
"Gifts are always indispensable, but this is not the key. There is an old saying in the human world, which is to surround Wei to save Zhao, and to save the country through curves. Can we prepare a gift for...the queen?" Joseph hesitated.
He was not the only one who hesitated, everyone looked at each other at this moment.
They are still not used to having a girl by His Majesty's side.
In order of status, that girl will be the mistress of the dragon clan, and the child she gives birth to will be the undisputed and unprecedented prince of the dragon clan.
"If His Majesty had retained a prince, even if Frisius had been appointed by His Majesty, he might not have been able to secure the throne." Abraham suddenly said, "In human dynasties, the existence of a prince plays a decisive role in stabilizing the situation of the dynasty.
.”
"If there is a prince, how could His Majesty still choose Frisius?" Joseph asked rhetorically, then paused and continued the previous topic, "No matter what, we can please Your Majesty by pleasing this one."
"What's a suitable gift for a woman?" Nip frowned, "Shoes? Clothes? Bags? Or jewelry?"
Joseph sneered and said: "How could the woman your Majesty likes be so vulgar? Don't forget, in this life, your Majesty has no money at all, a poor man, and no background. On the contrary, that lady is the daughter of a Tokyo mafia family.
, what kind of clothes, bags and jewelry have you not seen before?”
Nip was stunned, but then he asked suspiciously, "But wasn't what Smith gave me just clothes?"
Abraham's eyes were deep and he shook his head and said: "It's different. The clothes Smith gave you are completely different from the clothes and jewelry you just understood. The human world pays more attention to the heart, so the handmade ones are often far more expensive.
It relies on machine mass production. Even if you hire the top fashion designer to make the most luxurious dress, it still won’t be as good as Smith’s batik-specific dress.”
Nip frowned and said, "I can't make one by myself, right? Even if I want to learn, I don't have the time."
Joseph suddenly stood up and said: "Gift-giving is a science. Everyone should rely on their abilities. I have some ideas. Let's take a step first."
Looking at Joseph's leaving back, Nip's eyes widened and he blurted out: "What does this guy mean?"
Abraham sneered, stood up slowly and said, "Can't you tell? This guy is going to take this opportunity to compete. Besides, who can guarantee that His Majesty can really forgive us? But as long as we can truly ask for it,
That Huan Xin, His Majesty will naturally pinch his nose and forgive us."
He walked to the door, took off his coat and hat, turned around with a smile and said, "I also have some ideas. Remember to turn off the lights when you leave, don't waste my electricity."
Nip watched helplessly as the two men rushed out of the house, almost laughing in anger.
Just as he and Ed Joe were about to criticize these two people for their villainous behavior, they saw an old guy quietly changing his shoes and making a phone call.
"Come pick me up and get the airport ready. I'm going to China."
