My own gay son who can't stand on the wall, if his IQ is half as good as his pretty face, it will be enough.A beautiful but stupid son who can only be a canary in a cage.And the throne, I give you, is a kind of gift, if I don't give it to you, you can't take it.

It is time for the relationship between Curtis and Jack to change, so that Curtis can understand who is the king and who is the center of power in this world.The old king ordered his subordinate Charlie to get Curtis ready and wait for the king's reception.

Curtis and Jack had just returned from playing ball, and the two were sweating profusely, pacing slowly on the boulevard.Charlie came over to summon Curtis and asked him to go to the conference room.

Jack stood by, wondering in his heart, and said to Charlie: "I will go with him."

Charlie shook his head: "Sorry, Your Highness. The king didn't invite you."

Jack tried his best to keep smiling, but he was even more puzzled in his heart. He wanted to know why the king summoned Curtis, maybe because he saw that he and Curtis had been in close contact?Can't sit still anymore?

He raised his hand to straighten Curtis's collar that was messed up due to exercise, patted him on the shoulder, and said to Charlie: "Maybe our hero needs me to go with him?"

Curtis nodded loyally, and said sincerely, "Yes, Your Highness."

Charlie looked at Curtis with a smile, but said very bluntly: "The king said, I saw Captain Curtis."

Jack smiled awkwardly and nodded: "Okay, okay." Turning his head away, he couldn't hold the smile anymore, his eyes were cold.What the king wants to do, even himself has to hide it.

The king held Curtis's shoulders cordially. The New Year is coming soon. The country holds awards every five years to select outstanding figures as social models. Curtis is undoubtedly the most suitable hero.This is for a valid reason.

"I have no better candidate than you." The old king sat down with a smile. "You are so outstanding. I think the people hope to use you as a model."

Curtis understood his situation. The prince was not favored, and he threw his blood for the country, and the king didn't care about his efforts.He had never even praised the prince in public, let alone awarded a medal, and he couldn't help but sympathize with the neglected prince.

These days, Jack is willing to win him over, but he is not willing to accept everyone's win over.The king's words were full of hypocrisy. He never praised Jack, and he was so friendly to a stranger like himself, which made people's skin crawl.In addition, the Snowpiercer incident was also created by him, and Curtis would never forgive him anyway. He didn't like the king, and even resisted such a fancy and exaggerated award, but he had to bow his head. In front of the powerful, he did not The power to choose.

"At the New Year's Awards Ceremony, I will present you with an award."

"It is my honor," Curtis knelt down on one knee loyally, staring at the king, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

There is something in the king's words: "Recently, Jack has become a lot more self-disciplined. He no longer hangs around, and finally looks like a prince. You have brought him a good influence. Curtis, I should thank you."

Curtis's inner alarm was loud, and the king saw all his dealings with Jack. Could it be that the king had already noticed Jack's double-mindedness? Son, a tiger father has no sons." The meaning of the words was to praise the king.

The king is satisfied, and it doesn't matter what Curtis does. The important thing is that once Curtis is sought after by the people, Jack will no longer trust Curtis.The best way to ensure that the prince will not take the scepter from him is to snap his wings.

The New Year is coming soon, and there is heavy snow outside. The reporters are not afraid of the severe cold, waiting in the snow for the arrival of the royal family members.At the New Year Awards Ceremony, the king will confer honors on outstanding individuals and award him medals, which will be broadcast live nationwide, and the people are looking forward to it. This is a great honor.The long red carpet was rolled out from the outside of the house and extended into the main hall. Members of the royal family entered and sat down one after another, including the queen, princess, the king's brother, and a group of ministers.

Curtis was waiting backstage in a neat suit, and even trimmed his beard to make himself look more neat and serious.Although it was a medal, the award could be said to be for him, but Curtis couldn't get excited, and he was even faintly worried.Prince Jack hasn't arrived at the award yet, and he couldn't help feeling anxious.

In the past few days, he had no chance to explain to Jack, and was also asked to keep it secret by the king. He was afraid that the king would notice the prince's half-heartedness, which would be detrimental to the prince, so he never went to Jack again.Curtis knew that Jack didn't like awards, and he learned from the gossip of his subordinates that five years ago, Jack led the army to victory and returned injured, but the king didn't care.He didn't even mention Jack's achievements at the award ceremony, and what was even more ridiculous was to award the honorary medal to the empty-handed Chancellor of the Exchequer, on the grounds that it maintained the national economy.

This ridiculous award was undoubtedly a slap in the face of Jack. Jack was standing on the stage at that time, and he thought his father would honor him, but it was ignored.Everyone was waiting to see their own jokes, so they saw it.Everyone in the audience couldn't help laughing, only Jack was sad.

Jack will not go to this year's awards anyway, he can only bring shame upon himself if he goes.Looking back on five years ago, Jack felt extremely ironic. Curtis, whom he had been wooing, would compete with him for glory. He couldn't accept it.It is better to be out of sight and out of mind than to see others proud on stage.

But what about Curtis, does Curtis really want to be a role model for the people?Jack couldn't sit still, he wanted to make sure that Curtis was really loyal to him.Recently, he is also ignoring Curtis, perhaps because he is jealous of his father's excessive enthusiasm and praise for Curtis. It can be seen that Curtis is very uncomfortable because of this neglect.Curtis talked to him several times, but he ignored him. Curtis' hurt eyes were like those of an innocent large dog.

Curtis may be innocent, he is so loyal, maybe he was forced by the king and has no choice.Jack excused Curtis in his heart, and drove to the award ceremony.

When Jack arrived, the awards ceremony was halfway through, and the reporters had already entered. The night illuminated by flashlights was like daytime, and the crystal chandeliers reflected bright light. The hall was full of noisy and festive atmosphere. Curtis was standing on the stage with an uncomfortable expression on his face. smiling, with the medal pinned to his chest.The king put his arms around Curtis' shoulders and said something with great interest, but Jack couldn't hear their voices because they were too far away.Jack got out of the car and was about to go in when he was stopped by the guard.

"Your Highness, there is no seat for you inside." The guard looked at Jack indifferently.

"This is impossible."

"I'm sorry, Your Highness."

Anger rose in Jack's heart, and he looked at the guard forbearance: "I'm a prince. I don't have a position? Then change it for me."

The guard looked at him like a joke: "It's the Queen's order, Your Highness. We have no right to change it."

The reporters moved after hearing the news, and pointed their cameras at the prince one after another. Some even gloated and asked, "Aren't you invited? Prince?"

Jack gritted his teeth, with blue veins on his forehead, but still maintained his demeanor, and tried his best to squeeze out a distorted smile: "I just want to say congratulations. I'm very busy, and there are still many things to do."

The guard finally backed down and let him enter the hall sideways.

The awarding ceremony was over, everyone relaxed, the atmosphere gradually became lively, and Jack didn't hear anything.The king held a glass of wine and talked loudly beside the banquet, without airs at all, and looked like a wise monarch. Curtis stood beside the king, as docile as a dog.Accept congratulations from others from time to time, and even exchanged a hug with the princess.It could be seen that the princess admired Curtis very much, and Curtis invited the princess to dance out of politeness, and the two spun into the dance floor together.

Jack saw this gap, took champagne and walked towards his father. He greeted his father warmly and sincerely kissed the king on the cheek.The king hugged his son, and the two walked to the corner.

"I really didn't expect you to come." The king whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, and then raised the volume, "Are you satisfied with today? Son." The king was looking forward to Jack's reaction.

Trying to keep a smile on his face, Jack asked, "I just don't understand why Curtis?"

"Why Curtis and not you?" The king saw the question he wanted to ask, and began to mock, "Curtis has done a great job, but what else can you do except fool around with men."

"I also led the troops to win the war. I hope you can look directly at my contribution." Jack's voice began to tremble. His father's humiliation made him feel sad and angry. He suddenly lost his confidence and began to beg like a child short of candy Father's reward.

"You lead my army, and I give you everything." The old king spoke unceremoniously, and slapped Jack on the face like a slap in the face, "If your sister is a boy, do you think you can still be a prince?" Are you going to sit until today?"

Jack turned his head to look at the dance floor. Curtis and the princess were dancing. Both of them had gentle smiles on their faces, which made him extremely uncomfortable. The anger and resentment he had been suppressing was about to explode.

"But I am your son. Father." Jack took a deep breath and reminded the king.

"Obviously everyone likes Curtis more, and some people may not be able to keep their positions." The king pointed out that the dance between Curtis and the princess attracted everyone's attention, and those who were interested had already begun to figure out how to win Curtis over. , and feel that his future is limitless.
