Transcending into a god

Chapter 14 King Richard

For several days in a row, Teng Wu lived in his own place - the temple, and Cass' bad mood came from nowhere and shrouded the entire Karen Mansion.The gardener sighed and pruned the roses that withered early, and the housekeeper Andre also sighed and worried about the crown prince's sleep.

During the day, Cass went to the palace to visit King Richard, met with cabinet ministers to handle their own government affairs, and fought bravely with Lu Xiu.At night, Cass sat in the study and read the documents waiting to be processed, and kept in close contact with the princes of the fiefs.Every day Andre would wait until late, repeatedly reminding the crown prince of the time to sleep.

That night, Cass was sitting in the room, fiddling with the documents that needed to be signed, feeling restless.Andre entered the study with lavender tea that was good for sleep. Cass looked up and asked, "How long has His Majesty the Dragon God been away?"

"It's been 7 days."

"Is there any priest coming to report today?"

Andre nodded, "At dusk, a priest delivered an oracle, saying that he would not visit Karen Mansion tonight."

Cass threw the scroll in his hand heavily to the ground, "Are you here? This is where the dragon god is!"

Andre opened his mouth, but didn't speak.The crown prince was in a fit of anger, and it was indeed not to remind him of the fact that the dragon god should live in the temple.Licking his lips, Andre said hesitantly, "Your Highness, the Karen Mansion is where the crown princes of all generations lived!" Such a gentle reminder, it should be okay!

Sure enough, Cass gave Andre a hard look without rebuttal.After a moment of silence, Cass said again, "Lu Xiu got the news from nowhere, and today he slapped me around and kept talking about the Dragon God." After speaking, Cass sighed, "I don't know if I should, what should I do? Tell your father."

Andre was very familiar with the terminally ill and obsessed monarch, and said, "Your Highness can just speak out, whether the Dragon God found His Highness, or His Highness found the Dragon God, His Majesty should not care, after all, His Highness is the Dragon God's choice." .”

Cass looked at Andre and suddenly smiled, "I would have believed this 5 years ago, but now I think so again, I am an idiot! Dragon God's choice? God knows how the wind blows that day. At first Shenxiang was obviously going towards Lu Xiu, but as soon as the wind turned, it rushed towards me. I still remember the surprised expression on my father's face."

Andre hurried forward a few steps, "Your Highness! You must never say that! You are the choice of the Dragon God, God's favor!"

"Blessed by God?" Cass lowered his eyes, "Then why am I born with blond hair? Even my eyes are light blue, not pure dark blue. Father and mother, even if there are more than a dozen generations in the family, there is no one With hair of this color. The one who is truly favored is Lu Xiu, who was born noble."

"You are the crown prince!" Andre's voice rose, and Cass felt warm and familiar with his decisive tone.Years ago, it was Andre's almost reprimanding tone that strengthened his confidence time and time again.Looking at Andre, Cass smiled, "Uncle Andre, I see."

Andre immediately breathed a sigh of relief, even if he growled at this age, he couldn't keep his mouth shut a few times.

Cass took a sip of lavender tea and said, "Someone send a message to the temple to ask the dragon god to return to live in Karen Mansion. This is the safest place."

Andre swallowed back the words of advice and nodded in agreement.

Prince Luxiu's residence is near the other courtyard of the princess. Princess Una has already moved out of the palace, hoping to live closer to her son.It is also because Princess Una is already 40 years old, and she has long despised King Richard's young concubines and countless lovers.

Princess Una had been in charge of the harem before Queen Duran passed away. Now King Richard has been ill for several years. The so-called harem is just a group of self-deceiving young women clamoring. Everything is not as important as the future of her son Luxiu.

It was already late at night, Lu Xiu hurried to the princess's other courtyard, the female officer announced in front, and Lu Xiu entered the living room of the princess.

"Mother!" Lu Xiu rushed to Princess Una's bedroom.

The female officer who announced at the door hurriedly stopped, "Your Highness!"

Lu Xiu frowned, "What? Mother can't see me?"

The female officer saluted, "Your Highness, please be patient and wait patiently."

Seeing the female officer's expression, Lu Xiu's heart moved, "Oh", he stepped back and sat on the sofa, with a mocking smile on his lips, who is sleeping on Princess Una's bed in Canglong Kingdom?

After a while, Princess Una came out of the bedroom in a nightgown, frowning slightly, "Lu Xiu, it's so late!"

Lu Xiu undoubtedly explored the cause of the princess's messy hair, and said in a low voice, "In the past few days, there has been frequent traffic between the temple and the Karen Mansion."

Princess Una's expression froze, "What you said last time..."

"People from the guard battalion stepped up their patrols in the market, and then the high priest visited the Karen mansion for several days in a row, as many times as in the previous few years. Suddenly, the high priest stopped going to the Karen mansion, but every day Both the temple and the Karen Mansion are exchanging news." Lu Xiu said, "The people in Greenland City are spreading rumors about the return of the dragon god. In my opinion, that is not a rumor at all. A month ago, the dragon god was sacrificed. What's wrong, Cass looked awkward when I mentioned it."

Princess Una took a few deep breaths and said slowly, "Dragon God is really back?"

"The eyeliner on the mountain said that the temple received distinguished guests 7 days ago, and all the priests are on standby." Lu Xiu looked at Princess Una, "Mom, what should I do?"

Princess Una stood there in a daze, and it took a long time for her to come to her senses. "It turns out that the Dragon God will really come back. Hehe!" Una suddenly laughed, "What a pity! Richard is already too old. It's not the time when he was full of expectations in Karen Mansion when he was young."

"Mother?" Lu Xiu looked at Princess Una in confusion.

Princess Una looked at her son with a smile, "Son, go and tell your father! Needless to say, just say that the commoners in Greenland City saw the Dragon God." Sighing, Princess Una stood Standing up, "I really want to see the expression on Richard's face, hehe..." With that said, Princess Una pushed open the door of the bedroom.

"Now? Mother!" Lu Xiu asked behind the princess.

The princess turned her head and smiled, "Lu Xiu, you will be grateful that I haven't allowed you to marry a wife until now."

Lu Xiu led a few guards towards the palace, the sound of horseshoes stepping on the bluestone road was especially loud in the middle of the night.It sounded like a thunder rolling in the distance, and there was also a thunder hidden in Lu Xiu's heart.Queen Dulan passed away a long time ago, and Princess Una has been in charge of the harem for more than ten years, but the son of the most powerful woman in the court, the noble Prince Luxiu, has not been favored by the Dragon God.This thunder has been hidden in Lu Xiu's heart since he was young, and it lasted nearly 10 years.

When I was young, I still thought that my mother's dissolute appearance, and when I was arrogant, I missed the throne of the crown prince, but now I understand that there are many things that I don't know.

Lu Xiu whipped the horse hard, and the speed of the steed became faster. No matter how many things he didn't know, if tonight was the best time to reveal what Cass was hiding, then Lu Xiu would definitely will do it!

The servant stared dumbfounded at Lu Xiu's request to see the king, and lowered his head to pass the news inside.After a while, King Richard's personal servant came out, looked at Lu Xiu, and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty just woke up to drink tea. You need to report something quickly."

Lu Xiu nodded and rushed to King Richard's bedroom.

No matter how lively it is during the day, and how many women's perfumes and powders smell, King Richard's bedroom is always quiet at night, even a little deserted.Lu Xiu once wondered what was between his father and mother, but tonight he was obviously not thinking about these things.

"Lu Xiu, I'm really nervous to hear that you're here." King Richard helped his servant to sit up, drinking tea, "It's so late, if there is no serious matter, you won't bother me."

"Father." Lu Xiu bowed his head and saluted.

"Speak!" King Richard looked at Lu Xiu's expression, and waved his hand to let the servant back down.

Lu Xiu took a few steps forward, knelt on one leg in front of the king's bed, and said in a low voice, "Father, something strange happened at the Dragon God Priest a month ago. Rumor."

King Richard's chaotic eyes suddenly flickered, "What rumor?"

"The civilians all said that they saw the dragon god." Lu Xiu said cautiously, only to see that King Richard's hand holding the teacup was suddenly clenched tightly.

"What else?"

Lu Xiu thought about it and said, "The civilians said that they saw a man with long black hair, black eyes, and a gold earring."

King Richard's nostrils fluttered faintly, and his breathing became short of breath.

"They also said that it was the guards who captured the Dragon God."

King Richard turned pale, and looked at Lu Xiu, "You mean... Cass?"

"It is true that Cass has frequent contacts with the temple, but I am not sure, nor have I seen that the Dragon God is with Cass." Lu Xiu said tactfully.

King Richard turned to look at Lu Xiu, "Why did you come to tell me this late at night?"

Lu Xiu lowered his head, "Today, I accidentally discovered that the temple sent an envoy to the Karen Mansion. I didn't take it to heart at first, but I suddenly thought of it in the middle of the night, and felt that I had a lot to do with the people of the country. I need to report it to my father immediately. , so I asked to see you in the middle of the night."

King Richard was silent for a while, then waved his hand, "Go back!"

Lu Xiu said "yes".When he got out of the bedroom, he suddenly felt exhausted, so he summoned the guards to bring the horses over, and then rushed back to his mansion.After sending away the woman serving the bed, Lu Xiu was lying on the bed without any sleepiness, what would his father do?At the same time, Princess Una also dismissed the fit man and looked at the night sky outside the window alone.

Since when did I no longer believe in the Dragon God?King Richard supported the head of the bed and stood up slowly, groped for the mechanism in the hidden corner of the wall, and pressed it.After a slight rattling sound, the recessed carvings on one wall were slowly filled with huge portraits from top to bottom.

Boots, calves, sleeves, waist, and then the scepter across the waist and the fingers holding the scepter, and then the black hair hanging down the waist from the flowing hair.King Richard almost held his breath, with a slender neck, a slightly pointed jaw, thin lips, black eyes and a smooth forehead.When the gurgling sound stopped, a painting at the same height as the wall appeared in front of my eyes.

King Richard squinted his eyes and looked at it ecstatically. I don't know how many kings of the Canglong Kingdom have looked at this ancient painting obsessively alone in the dead of night.Every crown prince dreams of the return of the dragon god, and every young man who has tasted the taste of love will accept the coronation of the high priest in disappointment, become the king, and marry the queen.God, apart from being lofty, has really become an unattainable dream of the Canglong kings of all generations.

King Richard closed his eyes. Could it be that the only crown prince in history who did not have deep hair and deep eyes would be so lucky?When the Canglong bloodline reached Cass' generation, did it really get the favor of the Dragon God?

King Richard smiled wryly, he had no merits or faults in his life, and his greatest contribution was probably the birth of two equally intelligent sons.Lu Xiu only made a conjecture, and King Richard immediately understood that the matter might be true.Some people think that the sudden realization of something that they have been looking forward to for a long time will appear false, but he, Richard, will not, and Lu Xiu will not use this matter to catch wind and shadow.

King Richard looked at the portrait of the dragon god that hadn't changed for thousands of years, his breathing was trembling, and he couldn't tell whether he was excited for himself or Cass.
