The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure - Chapter 155
St. Airo Empire.
While Xia Zoe was busy dealing with new crops such as sweet potatoes and corn in his territory, minor political changes were taking place in the empire.
It should be said that it was a usurpation initiated by the third prince Khaxiu.
The third prince, Khaxu, escaped from the tower of Tum where he was being held, and assassinated the prince Warner.
However, the final result of this assassination undoubtedly ended in failure.
Inside the royal palace of the empire.
The old king who had been sick for a long time, the arrested third prince, the second prince Ken, Princess Lennar and others all gathered in Warner’s usual study room for government affairs.
There are knights holding spears or swords in the study.
Outside the study, there are attendants and knights who are responsible for guarding and guarding…
The entire palace seemed to be filled with an atmosphere that made people feel depressed, tight, and even everyone couldn’t help but hold their breath.
-The empire is about to change.
…
A study room with a more tense atmosphere.
Khaxu was escorted by a knight to kneel on the ground, his hands tied up, his clothes were messy, and his face was slightly bruised.
He was caught when he was about to escape from the royal city, and was then taken back to the palace.
Khashogh’s heart was beating nervously and fearfully… He was terrified of the next judgment and fate.
He couldn’t help but cast his eyes on the king.
—His father, at this time, was also held down by the shoulders of the two knights, firmly pressed on the chair, unable to move.
The king struggled and shouted angrily, and ordered the two knights to let him go quickly, otherwise he would order them to be executed, with the harshest punishment!
However, the king was old and weak.
Even if he was not tied to a chair, he still couldn’t escape the confinement of the two knights.
What’s more, the two knights were expressionless, completely disobeying the king’s orders.
The person they obey is the prince Warner.
“Warner, do you want to rebel?!” The king asked the prince angrily.
Warner stood in front of the desk at this time, turned his back to the king, and turned around and said indifferently: “Father, it is not me who wants to rebel, but Khaxiu.”
“This sentence, you should ask him.”
The king choked, but then said even more angrily: “Then let these two damned men quickly let go of me!”
“I’m your father! Not your prisoner! Why should I be pressed on this **** chair and can’t move?!”
Warner: “Father, do you really think I don’t know that there is your participation and writing behind this incident?”
“You want me to tear off the last fig leaf?”
The king’s face flushed, his expression was both angry and mixed with some very complicated emotions, and finally stopped in resentment.
He said: “Warner, I’m not dead yet, I’m still the king of this country…”
“Not soon.”
“you…!”
The king was already so angry that he couldn’t speak, panting hard, his chest rising and falling.
Princess Lennar felt pitiful when she saw her father look like this.
She stepped forward two steps and planned to say something to Warner, but the second prince Ken secretly grabbed her wrist…
Immediately after Lennar turned his head to look over, Ken shook his head slightly to her-don’t go, don’t say anything.
Lenal bit her lip, and finally stopped in place.
She decided to remain silent about this matter.
Because the reason why Khaxu escaped from the tower of Tum, there is no lack of the king’s help.
What’s more… In this operation that Khaxu planned to assassinate Warner, there was probably the king’s acquiescence…
The king became dissatisfied with Warner’s governance.
Lennar couldn’t help thinking—Does his father really want to kill the eldest brother? !
The king reluctantly suppressed his temper and said to Warner: “If you still want me to pass the position to you, then tell people to let me go now!”
“otherwise…”
Warner put a hand on the king’s shoulder, and his icy blue eyes looked directly at the king’s eyes of the same color, and the little emotions in them suddenly stopped the king’s words.
“Father, you have cultivated me as the heir to the throne since I was a child. This matter is well known to everyone, whether it is the royal family or the people of the empire.”
“I take the throne for granted.”
Warner straightened up slowly, but still pressed his hand on the king’s shoulder and did not leave: “Your health is not good, and you have been calling sick. If one day your condition is severe enough to be life-threatening… Sudden death is also possible.”
“Even if you leave no words, this empire will eventually be my successor to the throne.”
The royal family will support him, and the people of the empire will not oppose it.
The king’s complexion changed suddenly.
The red color on my cheeks that was originally filled with anger is fading away little by little…
When Warner released his hand on his shoulder and turned to leave, the king became silent, not even confiding a word.
Kaxiu couldn’t help showing a look of fear and begging for mercy: “Big Brother, Big Brother, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t be thinking about competing with you for the throne, nor should I plan…”
“Brother, you can lock me wherever you are. I promise I won’t escape and will not pose a threat to you…”
Warner: “Since you are my brother, I have given you a chance before, Karshu.”
“but now…”
“If you stay on your own and stay in the Tower of Tum, I will let people provide you with a noble life.”
“Unfortunately…you didn’t.”
“You should now bear the price for what you did.”
“Big Brother.”
Lennar couldn’t help but say: “Kashu, Kashu, he is still our brother after all…”
What do you want to do with him?
“Hanging execution.”
“no, do not want-“
Ka Xiu let out a cry of horror and struggled vigorously. However, he was immediately suppressed by the two knights behind him.
The king couldn’t help but tighten his pupils.
Lenal exclaimed, covering his mouth with wide-eyed eyes, and murmured: “No, brother, this is too…”
Even the second prince Ken frowned without a trace, but immediately stretched out again. He stood in the edge corner of the study without saying a word.
At this time, he was still silent.
Warner: “When he sent someone to kill me, he didn’t think I was his elder brother.”
“Lennal, if I am soft to him today, it is hard to guarantee that one day in the future, he will give birth to the desire to covet the throne again…”
“By then, do you think I can still be lucky enough to guard against assassinations or conspiracies?”
Lenal couldn’t help but pursed her lips and lowered her eyelashes slightly.
“No, big brother, you believe me, I will never make any mistakes again, I promise! Please believe me!” Kaxiu cried bitterly.
Regardless of the suppression of the knight behind him, he threw himself in front of Warner, begging.
However, Warner was indifferent.
At this time, he hardened his heart more than anyone else.
Because even Ken couldn’t help but show a hint of irritation when he saw Khaxu like this, and then he turned his head and didn’t look at it again.
The king squirmed his lips and said, “Warner…he is your brother.”
“But he also gave birth to ideas that he shouldn’t have.”
Warner said coldly: “And this idea is all about your mother and you indulging in the beginning…you made him think that he can replace me as the next successor of the entire empire.”
“Father, do you really think that if Karshu becomes a king, he will do better than me?”
Warner’s words couldn’t help changing the king’s face again, and he was speechless again.
After that, Warner ordered someone to take Khasiu away.
However, the king “has worsened” and finally recuperated in the room without seeing outsiders.
The third prince Khaxiu sent someone to assassinate the prince, and the vain attempt to seize the throne gradually spread throughout the royal city. Three days later, the third prince Khaxu was executed by hanging in the royal city.
When this incident reached the Desinian Territory, Xia Zoe was using chili powder ground from dried chilies to make food dips.
The most suitable food in winter is barbecue and hot pot.
He pushed the small dish with dried chili powder and some other seasonings in front of the pope’s crown, and said with a smile: “You have a taste.”
Saigalote’s gilt golden eyes rarely showed hesitation.
He just tasted a bit of dried chili that was not ground into powder, and his lips seemed to still have a spicy and numb sensation…
Although the taste of chili is novel, it is really unacceptable.
Later, he was comforted by Xia Zoe and drank a lot of water and ate some sugar.
It’s alleviated now.
Xia Zuoyi looked embarrassed and said, “I was not good just now. I shouldn’t lie to you to taste the chili directly. This time I dipped the chili with slices of meat or vegetables. The taste is actually very good.”
“Would you like to try again?”
“Is it really good?”
“Well, it’s really delicious.”
Xia Zoe personally put a piece of roast meat under the crown of the Pope, then dipped it in a small dish, and then handed it to the Pope.
His original intention was for the Pope’s crown to pick up the tongs holding the barbecue, but he did not expect that the Pope leaned over, grabbed his wrist with one hand, and then opened his mouth to eat the barbecue.
The rich taste bloomed in Segarot’s mouth instantly.
Especially the most prominent spiciness.
With the neutralization of food and other seasonings, the pungent taste is still rich, but it does not make people feel uncomfortable and unable to swallow.
Saigalote’s frowning brows gradually stretched, and he felt that he liked the taste a little bit.
Xia Zuoyi asked expectantly: “Is it delicious?”
“Well, it tastes very good.” Saigalote asked Xia Zoe to taste it too.
He loosened Xia Zoe’s wrist and sat back again, taking the tongs that held the barbecue with one hand naturally…
Immediately afterwards, a slice of roasted scorched pork dipped in seasoning was placed in front of Xia Zuoyi.
Xia Zoe scratched her cheek and opened her mouth to eat.
“It’s delicious,” he said, bulging his cheek.
The life without pepper was not perfect before, but now, it is simply happy!
Xia Zoe squinted and laughed.
He ate a lot of barbecues and hot pot dishes.
-In the pamphlet about potato practices sold in the Thorns Chamber of Commerce, there are some descriptions of how to eat hot pot, grilled meat, and baked potatoes.
Even the pot is made.
Now, it has almost spread throughout the territory.
When Xia Zoe was eighty full, Fernandi followed Udit and reported to him about the St. Airo Empire recently.
“…Not long after the third prince Khaxu was executed, the prince Warner ascended to the throne under the instruction of the old king.”
“Now, Warner Gales has become the king of the Saint Airo Empire.”
The author has something to say: Xia Xia: It’s a little intimate to eat barbecue together.
Pope: You can remove the tongs and barbecue next time.
Xia Xia:? ? ?
Good night~
