Emperor Fire

Chairman Luther King sat in the tent and thought about today's events, secretly complacent. Without him, today's situation might become unmanageable, and the empire would be exposed to the panic of civil strife.He obviously didn't expect that in another nearby tent, he thought that the crown prince and Vincent, whom he had just rescued, were teasing him.

After a while, Galen came to invite him.

He came to the tent where Ciro was, Vincent had gone back, only Ciro was there.

"Your Highness." Luther King saluted and was moved, "It's great to see your body recover."

Ciro held up his arm himself and said, "It's been a hard journey."

Luther King said: "I think it's worth it."

Ciro said: "But have you considered the consequences of doing so?"

Luther King said: "Of course. I am really happy that a dispute has been avoided."

Ciro shook his head and said, "But you offended Mrs. Rachel."

Luther King frowned casually and said, "No, I don't think so."

Ciro said: "I think you should know Hussein. He is known as the Knight of the Rose in the Imperial City. This reputation comes from the former Red Rose of the Imperial Capital, and today's Pearl Beauty."

Luther King said: "No, no, no. I understand what you mean, but I think you have misunderstood me. The reason why I am here today is entirely because I agree with Dean Olivia's point of view, a stable royal family Only in order to rule a stable empire. So I appear here entirely for the sake of the empire, which has nothing to do with my personal political stance."

"Of course I understand." Shiro sighed, "No one can understand your thoughts better than me. You can't imagine how many times I want to step down as crown prince to ensure the prosperity, unity and stability of the empire. But I can't Do this. I am burdened with too many people's expectations. As a member of the royal family, as the son of His Majesty Kasdaron II, I cannot escape the noble duties entrusted to me by my blood, and I do not want to be a coward. You Do you understand?"

Luther King said with emotion: "I completely understand."

Ciro said: "Since I was young, I have followed my elder brother as an example. So when he passed away, leaving only the heaviest and most glorious mission in this world, I must shoulder it."

Luther King said: "I believe Your Majesty will be very happy to know His Highness's thoughts."

Ciro shook his head slowly, "He can't hear me anymore."

As for the bad relationship between the emperor and the crown prince, how could Luther King, as the chairman of the parliament, be unclear.But even if he understands some words, he can only pretend not to understand them. He said: "Your Majesty and Your Highness are father and son. There is no closer relationship in this world than father and son."

"Where's the husband and wife?" Shiro said abruptly.

Luther King pretended to be stupid and said in a daze: "Of course Her Majesty the Queen will be a bridge between the two, there is no doubt about that."

Xi Luo said: "I didn't expect you to still remember your mother."

Luther King was taken aback, "Of course. I am always worried about the health of Her Majesty the Queen."

Ciro laughed at himself and said, "I thought that since Mrs. Rachel took on the role of the hostess of the first dance at the ball, the figure of mother has faded out of everyone's mind."

"Absolutely not." Luther King said hastily, "In my mind, Queen Samantha will always be the only queen in the empire."

Ciro reached out and patted him on the shoulder lightly, "Thank you, Luther King."

Although Luther King was old enough to be Ciro's father, hearing him call him so affectionately, he still felt indescribably moved.No matter what, it is not easy to gain the trust and gratitude of the heir to the throne.

He raised his head and said: "I, like most people in the parliament, believe that His Highness will definitely lead the empire to a bright, prosperous, strong and peaceful path."

Ciro smiled and said, "I aim for this."

Luther King smiled with satisfaction.

"I heard that my father intends to urge the parliament to pass a succession bill related to the God of Light?" Ciro changed the subject.

Luther King's face instantly became bitter, "Your Majesty is considering this matter very carefully."

Ciro said: "I think father should be more cautious."

Luther King said implicitly: "There are still some misunderstandings and ambiguities in this proposal, so the parliament is currently discussing it intensively."

Xi Luo said: "I really want to go back as soon as possible."

Having said that, Luther King finally found the breakthrough he had been looking for.He said: "I heard that His Highness once rejected His Majesty's order to call you back to the imperial capital. Why is that?" If Shiro hadn't rejected that order, he wouldn't have to drag a bunch of old bones to follow Vincent to send the magic circle Wandering around.God knows how much he hates changing things all at once.

Siro said: "It's a personal reason."

Luther King said confidently: "All the affairs of His Royal Highness are related to the interests of the empire!"

Ciro groaned in embarrassment, and said as if he had made some major decision: "Yes. You are right. This matter is indeed related to the empire."

Luther King asked nervously, "What is it?"

"About," Xi Luo paused, "my crown princess."

Luther King's surprised expression froze on his face for three seconds.

Ciro whispered, "Luther King?"

Luther King came back to his senses, and said, "I don't know which family's daughter it is?" He remembered the message he had heard before, and asked tentatively, "Is it from Richard's family?"

Ciro said: "No. It's Vantra."

"Vantra?" Luther King desperately searched for domestic information related to Vantra in his mind, but found nothing, but there is a very famous one abroad. "Excuse me, is it from our country?"

"No."

Luther King opened his eyes wide and said, "Princess Gu Lan?"

"It's from Gulan, but it's not a princess." Xi Luo said slowly, "It's a prince."

Luther King no longer knew what to use to cover up his surprise.Although the atmosphere in Dream Continent is open, it is not so shocking for men to marry men.But the royal family of the Banding Empire has not had a same-sex marriage for nearly a hundred years, let alone a same-sex marriage in the heir to the throne.You know, the crown princess is for the queen, the future mother of the empire!

"The heir of His Highness..." Luther King protested implicitly and tactfully.

Ciro said: "I will inherit Castron's surname."

Luther King hesitated and asked, "I don't know which prince it is?"

"Suoso." When Xi Luo pronounced the name, there was a touch of tenderness on his face.

Luther King saw it in his eyes, and his heart was hit by the second round.

Ciro said, "If you want, you can meet him." As he spoke, he lifted the curtain and went out before Luther King could say whether he wanted to or not.

Standing alone in the tent, Luther King seemed to have hundreds of horses galloping back and forth in his heart.How should we deal with this situation?He could foresee how shocking it would be if the Crown Prince brought this news back to Van Riel.What he is most worried about now is that the relationship between the first father and son of the empire that has just been restored may face a new round of tests.

The curtain was raised again.

A small boy with blond hair was embraced by Shiro.

His face was a little round, with puffy cheeks, big and bright eyes, and he was very beautiful.Overall, a handsome blond boy with clear eyes. "His Royal Highness." While looking at him, he did not forget to salute.

"Hello." Soso looked at him a little shyly.

Luther King smiled at him, then looked at Ciro in embarrassment.He was clearly not ready for a male crown princess from a foreign land.

Ciro said to Suo Suo: "This is the chairman of the empire's parliament. All important decisions of the empire require the approval of the parliament, and he is the one who presides over the council." Seeing Luther King looking at him, he said with a smile, "I hope He can adapt to everything in the empire as quickly as possible."

"Oh, yes, that's what it should be." Luther King felt as if his face was slowly boiling.

Suo Suo said: "You are a great person."

……

great?

All right.This is the first time he has heard such... lofty praise, although he hopes that these two words can be pasted on his tombstone after his death, but what I have to say is that it is the feeling of being able to hear this kind of praise during his lifetime Not too bad.

"You are too much." Luther King said, two more smile lines appeared in the corners of his eyes.
