Beasts contend

Chapter 49 Gathering

His Majesty the King is chatting with Lady Dinah.

When Lady Dinah woke up, His Majesty was much better.No one could persuade His Majesty the King to rest before, and His Majesty the King couldn't bear to refuse after Madam Dinah spoke.Mrs. Dinah asked the chefs to prepare meals for His Majesty the King according to the ingredients Fan Dong sent, and she occasionally ate with His Majesty, and found that her energy was much better.

Both His Majesty the King and Lady Dinah had glasses of four-color crystal wine in front of them.Although there are many colors, it still looks green and lovely, only passing other colors when moving.They had already drank it a few times, so they all had experience, and tacitly drank this wine last-or else they would have to take a bath in the middle of the conversation!

As he was talking, he heard an attendant report that His Highness had returned.

Fan Dong is the only one who can be called His Highness in the palace. His Majesty the King couldn't help showing a smile, and scolded him: "Colin is back, he can't stay forever, he ran away before the rookie competition was over. Went outside to play."

Mrs. Dinah said: "There is no one at his age who doesn't like to play." After she finished speaking, she was a little dazed.In fact, Fan Dong is already an adult, but he looks like a half-grown boy, and his personality is as lively and clever as before. Mrs. Dinah always feels that she has not been lethargic for five years, and has not missed the growth of the children.

However, all of that actually happened.

Madam Dinah looked worried: "Your Majesty, Edward..."

"Edward is a good boy," said His Majesty the King, and motioned Lady Dinah to be silent.

At this time, Fan Dong had already rushed in.As his mental strength got higher and higher, he was less and less afraid of the heat, and he wore well-formed suits and well-formed buckskin boots like everyone else, and he didn't look as small as before.Seeing Mrs. Dinah was there, Fan Dong's eyes lit up, and he said happily, "Aunt Dinah!"

His Majesty said, "You boy, there will be no father after Aunt Dinah."

Fan Dong threw himself into His Majesty's arms: "Father!"

His Majesty the King reached out and rubbed his head: "What did you do when you went out this time?"

Fan Dong hurriedly shook his head, expressing that he didn't do anything.He told His Majesty the king about his reason for coming: "Father, I have something to tell you." He asked someone to bring Arthur and Shen Ming in, and asked Arthur to tell about his grandfather's illness.

His Majesty the King listened carefully, and his face became more and more serious: "You mean, the people in the south died violently not because of the poisonous fog, but because of the parasite you mentioned?"

Fan Dong nodded vigorously.

He introduced Shen Ming to His Majesty the King: "Ah Ming is amazing, Aming helped me make the prescription, Dad, you send some people to learn how to make medicine with Aming, and then let Aming take them to the south to save people, okay? This medicine can be refined or brewed, it's very simple. For those with milder symptoms, just drink the brewed medicine."

Along the way, Fan Dong had already discussed this matter with Shen Ming.Shen Ming is a spirit herb master. His talent is actually related to the legendary "power of faith". Swish to upgrade.

Fan Dong has spied a lot of things in this area from the system, so he plans to use this method to brush up Shen Ming's "power of faith".

Fan Dong looked eagerly at His Majesty the King, hoping that he would agree.

His Majesty the King looked into Fan Dong's expectant eyes, paused, and said, "Mr. Shen may not be able to handle it alone, let Vincent take care of it."

Fan Dong knew that His Majesty the King raised Vincent as the crown prince, so he didn't care, nodded and said, "Okay!"

Fan Dong readily agreed, but some people did not agree, and shouted out His Majesty's name in an angry voice: "Peter Lane, you dare to assign the credit of little Colin to others?!"

The attendants knelt down on the ground in fear: "Your Majesty, it's the Duke of Hoborg! Your Excellency the Duke won't let us report..."

His Majesty the King was stunned.

Madam Dinah covered her lips with a handkerchief, and two lines of tears rolled down her cheeks unconsciously.She cried and said, "Brother Hoberg, you are willing to come to the capital!"

Duke Hoborg set off with gifts shortly after Fan Dong left.He heard Fan Dong acting like a baby to His Majesty outside just now, so he couldn't help standing there and listening.When His Majesty the King said to let Vincent take charge of the matter Fan Dong proposed, Duke Hoberg couldn't bear it anymore.

Obviously Fan Dong is also an adult, and Fan Dong is so outstanding, why should he give up the credit?If Wen Sen has the ability, he can find a way to get others to support him. Why should he let him do what Fan Dong came up with?It's no wonder Fan Dong's reputation is so bad, his two elder brothers took over all the good things he did!

Duke Hoborg had already made up his mind to get mad, but he was stunned when he heard Mrs. Dinah say "Brother Hoborg".He looked at Mrs. Dinah in disbelief for a long time before slowly saying, "Dinah, are you awake?"

His Majesty interrupted: "I sent you a letter."

Duke Hoborg snorted.He had already ordered his servants to destroy the letter immediately upon receipt of His Majesty's letter, without sending it to him.He said, "Dinna, you let this fellow treat our little Colin like this?"

Lady Dinah caught the point of Duke Hogberg's words.She was a little surprised: Duke Hoborg came here for Fan Dong!

Did they miss something?

All eyes were on Fan Dong.

Fan Dong blinked his eyes twice, and asked Duke Hoberg curiously: "Well, who are you?"

His Majesty the King: "..."

Mrs. Dinah: "..."

Duke Hoborg choked too.Thinking about it, he soon felt relieved, he hadn't been to the capital since the year Fan Dong was born, and the three Fan Dong brothers went to find him but he couldn't see him, how could Fan Dong know him?He smiled lovingly: "Colin, I am your uncle, your mother's elder brother."

Fan Dong immediately understood the identity of Duke Hoberg.He said, "Uncle, you look familiar..."

Duke Hoberg recalled his not-so-good image last night, coughed lightly twice, and said, "No, we haven't met."

Thought he wouldn't recognize him if he shaved?Fan Dong slightly bent the corners of his lips: "I smelled a strong smell of alcohol on you, and I smelled it on a person last night. But I know it's definitely not my uncle, that guy is dirty and smelly, with a beard and The hair is still messy, like those dirty bums on the street."

Duke Hoberg looked embarrassed.He said: "I prefer to drink in recent years."

Seeing Duke Hoberg deflated in front of Fan Dong, His Majesty the King and Mrs. Dinah looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.It was such a surprise to them that the Duke of Hoborg was willing to come to the capital!Looking at Duke Hoberg's attitude towards Fan Dong, they couldn't help but wonder what happened last night.

But Fan Dong accepted it as soon as he saw it, and didn't mention what happened last night.He remembered the rumors about Duke Hoborg. After suffering the pain of losing his son, Duke Hoborg was so depressed that he was accompanied by wine every day.According to legend, the Duke of Hoborg was also a great lion when he was young. He was very powerful, almost catching up with His Majesty the King back then.

He took a look at Duke Hoborg's complexion, and found that apart from his body being hollowed out by the spirits, his internal organs were also injured like His Majesty the King.

His Majesty's old wounds were too stubborn, so Fan Dong chose to use medicated diet to help him recuperate his body, but the medicated diet he can currently prepare is very limited, so he can only slowly select the ingredients and medicinal materials, and then mix it with crystal wine to expel the residual poison from the body.

Only by recuperating well can the lesions be eradicated slowly.

Fan Dong took out a glass of crystal wine from the storage ring: "Uncle, why don't you drink a glass too." He is not stupid, he can hear Duke Hoberg's words of protection for him.

Duke Hoberg had long seen the glass of wine in the hands of His Majesty the King and Lady Dinah, and the clear aroma had already reached the tip of his nose, luring every cell in his body.This wine must be delicious - not to mention that it was given to me by my precious nephew!

Duke Hoborg laughed heartily, took the crystal wine and drank it up.As soon as the wine was drunk, the effect came out. Duke Hoberg felt a long-lost sense of comfort in his body. Since that serious injury, he never felt such a sense of ease again!

He wished he could run outside and run around.

Duke Hoborg could not resist the urge to run out, but he couldn't help the stinky sweat that kept coming out. His body quickly became sticky and smelly.

Lady Dinah laughed through her tears.She covered her lips and laughed for a while, and asked the servant to guide Duke Hoborg to take a bath.

Duke Hoborg didn't want to lose face in front of Fan Dong, so he hurried there.

Madam Dinah held Fan Dong's hand and asked, "Colin, tell us what's going on? Why did your uncle chase you back to the capital?"

Fan Dong briefly explained the matter of the Plain of Death.

His Majesty the King said: "Since your cousin died in battle, your uncle never wanted to hear the sound of the drums. In addition, the person who could preside over the sacrifice was gone, so the sacrifice would not be able to continue. If it hadn't been for your uncle's depression, He doesn't even want to take care of the fiefdom, and there will never be a plain of death..." He looked far away, "Your uncle was a great hero when he was young."

Duke Hoborg went back and forth, stood at the door and said coldly to His Majesty the King: "You don't need to speak nice words for me!"

Fan Dong relied on his tenderness, and Duke Rahoberg sat down and begged: "Uncle, please tell me about the past."

Looking at Fan Dong's childish face, Duke Hoberg was in a daze.His son used to act like a spoiled child to him like Fan Dong: "Dad, Dad, tell me about your past." At this time, he would forget the old wound that was still aching on his body, and show off to his son How brave and powerful he was back then, how he defeated the enemies one by one.

The son listened with great interest, and said firmly every time: "Father, I want to be like you and be a very, very powerful hero!"

Duke Hoberg felt a pain in his heart.

He only cared about boasting to his son about the joy of killing the enemy and fighting, but he forgot to warn his son about the dangers of war and the unavoidable bloodshed and sacrifice in war.In retrospect, I was actually one of the culprits who pushed my son to death.

Duke Hoborg shook his head and said, "There is nothing to say about the past." He looked at His Majesty the King, "Colin is not young anymore, you can't always treat him like a child and let him do nothing."

His Majesty was at a loss for words.He explained to Duke Hoborg: "You misunderstood, I would say that Vincent was put in charge because Colin still had to go to the academy..."

Duke Hoberg snorted, dissatisfied with His Majesty's words: "Our Colin is so good, are we afraid that we will not be able to graduate? This time Colin won the first place in the rookie competition. Isn't this what made Colin change his reputation? Is it a good time? Thanks to you still saying that you love Colin, you don’t care if people outside talk about Colin so badly.”

His Majesty fell silent.

Madam Dinah had just woken up and was still unclear about the situation outside. After hearing what Duke Hobberg said, she asked in surprise, "What do people outside say about Colin?"

Duke Hoborg looked at His Majesty the King coldly, and told what he had learned. The words "trash", "lusty", "ignorant" and "arrogant" seemed to have become labels on Fan Dong. Anyone would dare to curse at Fan Dong in front of him.

Madam Dinah became angrier the more she heard it, she slapped the table and said, "Who is spreading rumors to bully Colin!"

Mrs. Dinah had always been gentle and amiable, and this was the first time she had lost her temper like this.

Duke Hoborg said: "It's your son who makes these rumors fly," he pointed to His Majesty the King with his chin, "and his son. Lin leads on a crooked road."

Mrs. Dinah's eyes widened in disbelief: "Oh my God, how could this be..."

Fan Dong said: "It doesn't matter." Instead, he comforted Mrs. Dinah and His Majesty the King, with an inherent pride in his tone, "What does what other people say have anything to do with me? People who like me will naturally understand me."

Madam Dinah stretched out her hand to hold Fan Dong's palm, but she couldn't say a word anymore.

Their little Colin, who used to like Vincent so much, and Edward so much—

How many things had to go through before he could say the words "it doesn't matter" so calmly.When they had no time to take care of him, he grew up alone.No one has really understood what happened to him, and really cared whether he was sad or not——

how so?She was just in a coma for five years, why did everything turn out like this?

Mrs. Dinah wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, but found that she couldn't finish it.She choked up and said, "Colin, my little Colin..."

Fan Dong looked at Madam Dinah's distressed tears, and was moved in his heart, reaching out and hugging her gently.

This woman is as gentle and kind as his stepmother, and it is impossible to refuse her kind care and love.

At this time, Edward, Vincent, and Phil met unexpectedly outside the house, and they both looked into the house, only to see Fan Dong and Mrs. Dinah hugging each other intimately.

Both Edward and Vincent stopped in their tracks.

Phil stepped forward in surprise: "Uncle, you have come to the capital!"
