A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - Chapter 290
The flower garden in the sky under the moonlight has hundreds of flowers blooming and floral fragrance.
The beautiful girls walked in the flower garden, walking lightly, dancing like butterflies in the flowers, and the clear laughter splashed into the pool water like a clear spring flowing from high altitude.
A fascinating beauty.
However, Gallan, who was sitting in front of him, staring at the beauty of flowers and girls, was not in a good mood.
His high priest, together with the head of the royal knighthood and a group of ministers, set him up, and he just held the celebration of the Huayu Festival in the royal palace.
By the time he knew it, the news had spread to Aaron Landis. The city owners and nobles from all over the country brought their daughters, nieces or sisters to Wangcheng. The nobles in the Wangcheng also expressed their intention to participate in the celebration.
At this point, he couldn’t refrain from announcing the cancellation of this celebration, and then let his family turn back, isn’t it playing others?
So far, he can only helplessly compromise.
However, although he came to the celebration as the ministers wished, when he walked through the middle of the flower court, his expression was awe-inspiring, not squinting, and deliberately exuded an inaccessible momentum.
So as to successfully stop the beautiful girls in the greenhouse.
At this moment, Gallan sat quietly in the upper seat, his white fingers gently turning the green malachite wine glass in his hand.
Although it’s not wine but juice.
Supporting the side cheek with one hand on the armrest of the white jade seat, he slightly lowered his eyes, and his slender eyelashes dropped a shallow shadow on his snowy cheeks.
The young king just sat there quietly, and let that place become a rare beauty in the world.
It attracted many noble ladies to peek at them continuously, shining with star eyes and whispering whispered with their companions.
Gallan sat there seeming to be careless, but his heart was already sighed several times.
The incident was so great that it even spread to other countries, and that person could not be unaware.
Garland thought with a headache.
I don’t know what that person will do.
The man’s words… probably everything can be done.
I only hope that he will not bring the army back directly.
At that time, people will definitely be mistaken for usurping.
Garland thought so, glancing at the side.
On the table next to it, an exquisite lupin was placed on the soft red velvet brocade.
The frame of the fan handle in pure gold is carved out of olive leaves and flowers. The soft peacock feathers are woven on the gold wire, and the pure white tassels dotted with small gemstones fall on the brocade.
According to legend, Aphroditemir gave a golden fan and a crystal mirror to the goddess of spring to convey his deep feelings.
Therefore, the fan has become a symbol of love at the Huayu Festival celebration.
At this celebration, if Galland gave this golden fan to whom, it meant that the girl would become the princess of Aaron Landis.
Therefore, in addition to staring at Gallan, many of the noble ladies in the flower court scorched their eyes from time to time on the golden fan beside Gallan.
Glancing at the troublesome golden fan, Gallan sighed again in his heart.
headache.
He thought, raising his hand and rubbing his temples.
Just then, a brisk footstep sounded and came towards him.
Gallan looked up and saw that the girl with long wavy linen hair was walking towards him lightly, and those eyes looked at him shining brightly, as if to say a thousand words.
He remembered her.
Not long ago, when he had just walked under the flower garden, going to the stone steps in the middle, a girl suddenly jumped down from the top, frightened him, and stretched out his hand to catch the girl reflectively.
At that time, the girl caught by him also stared at him with such shiny eyes.
He didn’t hate that look.
Because the girl looked at him very clean and bright, as if she opened her eyes and confirmed the owner’s little milk dog.
Now the girl was running towards him like a puppy with a big tail and **** eyes.
Garlan looked amused and smiled.
Only, the corner of his mouth just raised.
Keng!
A crackling sound suddenly sounded.
A long sword came down from the sky, a sword stab in front of the girl who ran to him.
Broken ground cracked stone.
………… That guy can really do everything…………
Looking silently at the ground-splitting long sword, Gallan had only such a thought in his mind at the moment.
Although he was put together by Xie Muer and others, since he dare to come to this celebration, he naturally thought of a way to retreat.
If there is no accident, not only will the celebration end smoothly, but he will also allow Xie Muer to mention the matter of letting him marry the princess for a long time.
Only, he intends to be better.
Huimus is the only variable among them.
As expected, when this guy appeared, everything was in a mess.
Ah, a headache.
With the sharp click of the sword, the entire flower court was instantly silent.
Time seems to freeze at this moment.
Many people’s smiles froze in their faces.
Throughout the courtyard, everyone’s eyes fell on the long sword that slanted diagonally on the stone ground, his eyes dull.
This is… what happened?
Everyone was a little embarrassed for a while.
A group of well-trained bodyguards rushed up quickly, and under the leadership of the chief knight who was on duty tonight, Gallan blocked him.
The knight had a long sword in his hand, and he was already in a fighting posture, but when he looked up and saw the person, he was startled.
He looked back at King Galran in amazement, revealing a questioning look.
When he saw King Gallan wave his hand to signal him to retreat, he nodded and simply retreated to the side with his men.
The originally lively Hua Ting was already a quiet and audible needle. Everyone looked at the tall man who didn’t know when to appear on the Hua Ting in amazement and watched him step by step from the middle.
A black armor, lacquered black hair seems to melt into the night.
He was like a black wolf coming out quietly and silently from the dark night, and walked towards the people coldly and arrogantly.
Black Knight Huimos.
The one who was said to have stunned the tens of thousands of troops covered, Aaron Landis the unmatched strongest soldier.
Those who saw him for the first time guessed the man’s identity almost instantly.
Even if he didn’t say a word, his presence was enough to make everyone silent.
The delicate aristocratic women were so scared that they didn’t dare to scream.
The survival instinct made them dare not move in the face of this dangerous man.
In full view, Huimos walked to Gallan in the upper seat.
He didn’t go fast, but he was very powerful. The boots under his feet stepped on the stone slab and made heavy footsteps.
Step by step, step by step, the sound of the footsteps seemed like a shocking drumbeat, stepping heavily on people’s hearts.
His pace wasn’t rushing, his posture was arrogant, as if he couldn’t see the dense crowd in front.
But wherever he went, it seemed that there was an invisible sense of oppression radiating from all around him, so that the person standing in front of him could not help but retreat aside.
Every time he took a step forward, large crowds of people in front of him were like the sea water that was suddenly separated, and they consciously gave way to a spacious road.
The originally lively celebration suddenly became strangely quiet because of the appearance of this man.
Soon, he walked to Lei Ya in front of everyone quietly, also before the sword he threw.
At this time, the girl was still in a state of coercion.
She stared blankly at the long sword in front of her, so frightened that her brain, which was completely disconnected, was still on strike.
Huimus came from behind her and crossed her shoulders.
Then, stood beside the long sword in front of her.
In a sluggish manner, Leiya vaguely felt that a tall figure enveloped herself. Before she looked up, an arm stretched out from her eyes.
She stared blankly at the big brown hand holding the hilt of the long sword.
A little harder.
There was a piercing rubbing sound of cracked gravel.
Leiya opened her eyes and stared at the long sword, which had penetrated into the stone slab with a depth of three feet, and was so easily pulled out by the hand.
The gravel spewed out of the slate crack, and several pieces splashed onto her skirt.
Seeing the sword-pulling hand retract, she instinctively looked up with that hand.
The moonlight slightly obliquely shot from behind the man.
In the backlight, she could not see the face of the tall man standing in front of her.
But she saw the man’s eyes and looked at her in the half-dark shadow.
The man gave her a glance.
Just a glance.
In an instant, her mind was blank.
Her body reacted faster than her thoughts.
As her legs softened, she fell to the ground as a whole, and the cold slate floor seemed to penetrate the cold into her legs.
Her pupil lips shuddered, but she couldn’t even scream, and her hand on the ground shivered uncontrollably.
too horrible.
This man… so scary.
At this moment, there was only such a thought in her blank mind.
“Hymos.”
A clear voice suddenly sounded in the silence, breaking the silence in the flower garden.
Heimus moved his eyes and looked up.
Gallan, sitting in the upper seat, looked at him.
“You scared her.”
Gallan said that the bright golden eyes looked at Huimus.
In the night, Huimus looked at Galland above.
The golden-red eyes reflected the surrounding firelight, a golden arc of light on the edge of the pupil iris, and deep red flames ignited by the firelight deep inside the eyes.
Gallan’s figure reflected in his pupils, as if burned by the flames under his eyes.
When the night wind blew by, the dark forehead moved, and the shadow reflected in the pupils shook endlessly.
Heimos looked up at Garland with his head up, half his cheeks reflecting the fire.
His face was half bright and half dark, with light and shadow interlaced.
The edge of the black armor on his body refracted the shimmer, glowing with the unique cold luster of metal, as if still exuding the cold brought back from the north.
Heimus said nothing, but Gallan spoke again.
“You scared her.”
Garland repeats again.
The girl, who was scared and fell to the ground, was still shaking, and suddenly heard these two words from Gallan, and her eyes suddenly lighted up.
King Garland… Is he protecting her?
Did he feel her special?
Ah, sure enough, she is destined between him and him~~

There was a sweet feeling in the bottom of my heart, and Leiya felt very comforted.
Suddenly, her hands didn’t tremble, and she even forgot that the man like a shaman was still around, and looked up at Garland with her eyes shiny.
The girl sat on the ground, her long wavy linen hair spread over her delicate shoulders.
Her long skirt was spread on the white stone ground, watching Galan’s watery eyes still hazy moisture, the whole person was like a blooming flower.
“King Galland…”
She whispered a whisper, with a sweet voice unique to the girl.
Such a beautiful and flowery girl, no matter who it is, can’t help but feel compassionate at first glance.
No one noticed that in this sweet call, the gloomy color in the eyes of Huimus became deeper and deeper.
No one noticed that, due to Garland’s first speaking, Zuo Xiang, who had a face on his side and would stand up and accuse Heimus of being rude, choked and closed his mouth.
King Garland has already spoken, and of course he is not good to interject, after all, interrupting the king’s words is a misbehaving act.
Hua Ting was still very quiet, only Gallan’s voice echoed under the night sky.
Garland and Hyimus looked at each other with disagreement in their eyes.
He didn’t say anything, just looked at Huimus quietly.
After stalemate for a while, Huimus lowered his eyes, the shadow of his forehead covering his eyes.
As soon as he raised his hand, he clanged, and his sword fell into the sheath.
Afterwards, Huimos reached out directly.
Leiya was staring at Gallan, who was maintaining her, full of excitement, and suddenly felt light.
Immediately afterwards, she was picked up from the back by the collar.
Heimus was much taller than her, leaving her feet dangling when picking her up.
The girl was a little ignorant.
and many more.
This action, this posture, is no different from carrying a puppy.
and many more.
King Garland was watching, I would be embarrassed to be carried like this–
She hadn’t had time to speak yet, and Huimus had put her down.
He bowed slightly, a gesture of apology to Lei Ya.
“Sorry, the sword just accidentally disengaged, which surprised you. Tomorrow I will let someone send the compensation.”
Heimus said, holding the sword in one hand and pressing it against his chest.
That word, that attitude, looks polite.
The partial tone of his speech is not fluctuating, very indifferent, how to look like a perfunctory.
In the end, how carelessly you can let a long sword fly over a distance of nearly 100 meters, and even break the stone ground!
Everyone onlookers could not help but shout at the bottom of their hearts.
Having finished speaking, before Reya answered, Huimus had turned away from her and continued to walk forward.
He walked up to Garland, leaned over, and knelt on one knee.
Putting his left hand on the raised knee, he lifted the long sword that had been sheathed in his right hand to Gallan’s eyes.
“This is the loot obtained from the Gazeus.”
He said, looking up, gazing at Garlan sharply.
Firelight refracted the cold arc of metal on the long sword in his hand.
“For you.”
Garland: “………”
He was still thinking about how to make excuses for Heimus’ sword intrusion. This guy had already made an excuse himself.
Although this excuse is extremely perfunctory…
However, he is the king, he recognized that other people will naturally not talk.
“Will you accept it?”
The golden eyes stared at Gallan.
Garland could clearly see the burning eyes of the man in front of him.
He’s sure.
If he doesn’t take it, this guy will definitely act more unbridled.
With a slight sigh in the bottom of his heart, he reached out and took the sword handed over by Huimus.
“I read the military newspaper, and Guy Shuren has retreated. This is all your credit, Huimus.”
He said that he smiled slightly at Huimus.
Heimus was still kneeling on one knee, looking up, gazing at Garland deeply.
He smiled suddenly.
He said: “Speaking of it, today is the Flower Royal Festival. According to tradition, I gave you the sword, and you accepted it. Does this mean that you accepted my proposal?”
Due to the sudden appearance of Huimos and a series of actions, the entire flower garden was extremely silent.
Therefore, even if Huimos said it quietly, many people nearby still heard it, and suddenly those people’s faces froze.
Soga’s eyelids jumped without raising his head since he appeared.
It’s over.
Lord Heimus was so irritated that he was in big trouble.
How should this end?
“Master Huimos!”
Garlan hadn’t spoken yet, and he had endured for a long time Zuo Sixiang scolded angrily.
“Even if it’s a celebration, you shouldn’t make jokes on your majesty! This kind of behavior is so presumptuous!”
Heimos glanced at Zuo Sixiang who was standing up, his eyes oozing a little coldly.
The corner of his mouth raised a little arc.
“The same is true, even if you’re joking, you can’t do it to “His Majesty”.”
He deliberately aggravated the word “His Majesty”.
As he spoke, he stood up and smiled lightly.
“Your Majesty, it is rare for me to be lucky. When I come back to the city to catch up with the Huayu Festival celebrations, would you please allow me to attend this celebration too?
He said to Garland with a smile.
Fortunately, it’s okay… Lord Huimus has reason.
Sorga covered her chest that was about to be broken by her beating heart, fortunately thinking.
“Maybe my loved one is in this courtyard?”
Heimus stared at Garland.
Word by word, with a meaning.
Boom!
Soga’s heart was trembling again.
This is really bad for the heart.
Also, why are Kayhose and the female chief not here?
Why is he the only one who knows the truth inside?
Why should he be so worried here alone?
The unbelievable Soga looked up secretly.
Garland was so calm that he couldn’t see anything, but nodded.
“Okay, since you are interested in this celebration, sit next to me.”
As if he didn’t understand the hints in Heimus’s words, Garland answered calmly.
Regardless of how to provoke the opponent to not take the move, it is like a punch on cotton, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Looking at Garlan who didn’t change his face, Heimus, who felt itchy, had the urge to bite hard.
But after all he could hold back, covering his uncomfortable look with his eyes down, and sat down on the seat next to Garland.
Garland clapped his hands, drawing everyone’s attention to himself.
He smiled and said: “Don’t care too much, just be an extra participant in the celebration, just like everyone else.”
Garland turned to look at the chief attendant in charge of the celebration.
“continue.”
Garland said this, the flower garden that had been silent before it quickly resumed its former liveliness.
The only difference is that although many noble women did not dare to step forward, they also set their eyes on King Gallan from time to time.
But now, there is one more person around King Garland.
The black knight felt so horrible to them that the girls did not dare to look over there, fearing that they would look at the scary man if they were not careful.
……This fierce evil dog guards the sight of its own belongings…
Soga thought so uncontrollably that he could not help but twitch.
Heimus was sitting next to Garland. Naturally, he saw the siskin fan on the red damask placed on the table case.
His eyes were heavy and dark again.
After thinking a little, he reached for the golden fan, unfolded it, and then glanced at it carefully.
“There are cracks here.”
Heimus, who stared at the golden fan for a long time, said suddenly.
“Ok?”
Gallan looked indifferently at the restored celebration below, and when he heard this, he turned his head.
“crack?”
How can such royal treasures carefully crafted by royal craftsmen have cracks?
Gallan glanced at it, and really found a thin crack.
He wanted to see clearly, so he gathered his face and looked closely.
But he didn’t notice that, as a result, his head took the initiative to approach Huimus.
The fan that Heimos lifted up just happened to block the lower half of their faces.
As Gallan stared at the thin crack, suddenly the shadows overcame, very light and very fast, and Heimus kissed him on the lips.
The next second, the person quickly backed away, closing the golden fan in his hand with a snap, and retracted it.
All of this happened very quickly, and when Garlan responded a moment later, Huimos was sitting in full danger, continuing to play with the golden fan in his hand as if nothing had happened.
Gallan’s heart thumped violently and couldn’t stop.
This is a feeling of cheating in a large crowd…
He squeezed his lips tightly, trying to pretend to be casual, and didn’t look at Heimus at all.
While playing with the golden fan in his hand, the afterglow of Huimos’s eyes glanced at the people around him without any trace.
He saw Gallan’s hand on the armrest clenched, loosened again, and his lips pressed tightly.
Obviously a little flustered but forced to calm down.
Obviously a little angry but trying to pretend nothing had happened.
The tip of the ear that emerged from the golden hair was slightly reddish.
Heimus’s mouth lifted slightly invisible, and suddenly he felt much better.
