One Piece Tulip Family
Chapter 184 The Day of the Sacrifice
Two days later, Birmingham, the capital of the country of flowers.
Today is the Spring Festival of the Kingdom of Flowers. As a famous agricultural kingdom in the West Sea, the spring festival to pray for vigorous growth and a full harvest is particularly important here, and the whole country is shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.
The sky is clear, the breeze is gentle, this is a rare good weather.
The King's Square in Birmingham was silent, and countless officials and people turned their attention to the steps leading to the altar.
There, King Standing, the No.12 monarch of the Kingdom of Flowers, was slowly walking towards the top of the altar.
He is about 40 years old, wearing gorgeous sacrificial clothes, with a burly figure and vigorous steps. Every step he takes is as steady as Mount Tai, and his eyes are fixed on the front.
He has a handsome face, thick eyebrows, a high nose bridge, healthy and firm ancient skin, and a neat short beard around his lips. He looks very shrewd and capable, but his slightly frowning brows are a bit disruptive, and there seems to be an inexplicable melancholy accumulated in his heart.
The national master Jiuyu, who was also wearing a gorgeous sacrificial robe, followed the king step by step. He held a paper fan in his hand and shook it gently.
It stands to reason that the spring festival is an important sacrifice in the country of flowers. In previous years, the king performed the sacrifice alone, praying for the country to have good weather in the new year and the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Others are not eligible to be on the altar.
But this year, Master Jiuyu insisted on offering sacrifices with the king. King Standing suffered from Queen Heyu and the little prince being controlled by each other, so he had to agree to Jiuyu's unreasonable request.
In the torment of inner pain, King Standing came to the top of the altar. He took a long breath, calmed down the distracting thoughts in his heart, straightened the sacrificial robe, and prepared to start the sacrificial ceremony.
"Wait, Your Majesty the King."
At this moment, Jiu Yu suddenly stopped King Standing's movements. Standing frowned, turned his head to look at Jiu Yu with a sullen face, his eyes were full of anger, "You actually interrupted me at an important moment of sacrifice, Jiu Yu, you are getting more and more presumptuous."
"Ha, don't be angry."
Jiu Yu laughed indifferently, and didn't care about Standing's anger. He gently shook the paper fan in his hand, and said something that made King Standing even more furious, "I think, if you don't mind, I will perform this year's sacrifice instead of you."
"What did you say? Are you planning to rebel?"
King Standing suddenly turned around and shouted sharply, his eyes were full of raging anger, his fists were clenched tightly, and the muscles on his arms hidden in the wide sacrificial robe bulged like a horned dragon.
The most important weapon of the country is Ji and Rong!
Sacrifice and military affairs are important means for the monarch of a country to publicize his authority, but now, Guoshi Jiuyu is actually trying to get involved in the Spring Festival. Isn't this clearly revealing the intention of treason.
"Hehe, His Majesty the King calm down."
Facing the furious anger of King Standing, Jiu Yu slightly raised the corner of his mouth and showed a sneer, "Why do you have to tear yourself apart? You know that what I want is the throne."
"In my dream, the Kingdom of Flowers has gone through eleven generations of monarchs, living and working in peace and contentment under the rule of my royal family, singing and dancing, even if I die, I will not let the Kingdom of Flowers fall into the hands of ambitious people like you."
King Standing trembled slightly, obviously restraining his anger forcibly. If it wasn't for the fact that the queen was not controlled by others, he would like to take off the skin of Dove's feather.
"You are giving up your wife and children, Your Majesty the King."
Jiu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, a gloomy light flashed in the corner of his eyes, and the paper fan in his hand inadvertently pointed to the attic opposite the altar.
"Crane feather!"
Looking in the direction Jiu Yu was pointing at, Standing couldn't help but let out a low cry, and saw the queen He Yu holding the little prince standing by an open window at the top of the attic in the distance. Behind her, several cultists were closely guarding her.
"How about it, Your Majesty the King, have you considered it clearly?"
Jiu Yu tapped her wrist lightly with a paper fan, constantly exerting pressure on King Standing, "If you don't pay attention, Queen He Yu will fall down if you are not careful. At that time, His Majesty the King will lose his beloved. By the way, His Highness the Prince will not be spared either."
"You bastard."
Standing couldn't restrain the anger in his heart, pushed Jiu Yu away, and growled in a low voice: "She's your sister!"
"No, no, no, I don't have a younger sister who is so picky about what's going on inside and out. She actually forgot her duty as a saint. It's not a pity to die. Now, she's just your queen."
Jiu Yu brushed off his sleeves indifferently, showing a victorious smile. He knew better than anyone else how much King Standing cared about Crane Feather, otherwise he would not have been able to use Crane Feather as a bargaining chip to flourish in the Kingdom of Flowers in the past few years.
"How did this happen, how did this happen? Why, why..."
Standing stared at the crane feather in the attic far away. On one side was his beloved woman and his son whom he had never seen since he was born. On the other side was the royal family protecting the country he swore to rule for generations. What should he do?
"As long as you are willing to surrender the throne to me in public, I promise to give you the dignity you deserve, and not hurt Queen Heyu at all, so that your family can be reunited."
Seeing Standing's struggling expression, Jiu Yu continued to confuse her, but felt rather disapproving in her heart. Those who care about big things should have the courage of a gecko to cut off their tails. How could they be entangled in their children's personal relationships? Standing loses because he is too affectionate and his weakness is too obvious.
"me……"
Standing opened his mouth with difficulty, but couldn't say a word. It was too difficult to make a decision at such a moment.
"Hmph, are you youngsters holding the queen hostage? This god will give you the cruelest punishment."
Just when King Standing and Master Jiuyu were deadlocked on the sacrificial platform, there was a loud shout from the people below, and the dazzling blue lightning exploded. A figure wrapped in lightning flashed out of the crowd in vain, and flashed like lightning to the attic where Queen Heyu was hijacked.
"It's him, so it's true?"
King Standing clenched his fists and took two steps back, his eyes burst out with strong hope, and his body couldn't help trembling nervously. Of course, he knew who the figure wrapped in thunder and lightning was.
It turned out that the members of the Tulip family rushed to Birmingham, the capital of the country of flowers, last night. Under the planning of Crowe, the most powerful Enilo sneaked into the royal city late at night, secretly contacted King Standing, and exposed the plot of the national teacher Jiuyu.
Therefore, regarding today's changes, His Majesty the King had already been on guard in his heart. His only concern was whether Enilo could really rescue Queen Crane Feather and the little prince as he said, which was the key to a comeback!
