Heaven’s Intention

Look at the moonlight tonight. How beautiful it is. It's rare to see such a beautiful night sky. It's here. Let's look at it for a while.

The head is slightly raised, and there is a hard slate under the feet. There is no cloud in the sky, just a bright night sky.

The moon hangs high in the sky, and the cool light constantly shines from it to the world below.

The face of the old king of Esk Kingdom is full of vicissitudes. This kind of vicissitudes has no expression in the majestic and magnificent palace. Once he walks out of the palace and enters the vast world, it becomes very obvious.

On the stone floor under his feet, there was a constant rattling sound, which was the sound of the old king's moving footsteps, and the sound of the boots colliding with the ground.

Behind him, stood a group of people. They are all well-armed and well-equipped guards. Among them are not only knights, but also mages, druids and priests.

The responsibility of protecting the king can be said to be the highest honor for a guard in the Kingdom of Esk, and many people are proud of it. Therefore, the guards standing behind the old king are all concentrated and serious. .

On their faces, there is seriousness, responsibility, and divine light.

I need time. Just give me a few more years, and I can take the kingdom of Esk to a higher level. Just give me a few more years, and I can expand my kingdom and territory. Time , What I need most is time, I hope, I still have time to do these things, to do these things I want to do.

There was a slight panting sound, and the body seemed to be still very weak. The illness some time ago did not fully recover. The old king clutched his chest, feeling a little stuffy.

Your Majesty, it's windy at night, we'd better go back. A close servant came over and whispered persuasively.

No, I want to take a look at the full moon again. This kind of moon is what I like to see since I was a child. Standing here, I can see farther and more clearly. Let me look at it for a while. The old king shook Shaking his head, he said.

Because the old king had this habit, he became more stubborn as he got older, and the people around him couldn't persuade him any more, and they all retreated to the side.

The servant just now was holding a thicker coat in his hand, and carefully put it on for him. This time, the old king did not object.

His body is no longer in good shape, and his aging condition is more serious than outsiders can see. Fortunately, he still has a good son to share the government affairs for him.

If the second son is also like the other two sons,

Then he will really collapse.

Thinking of Prince Xiu Senya, a smile finally appeared on the old king's face.

By the way, has there been any news from the crown prince recently? the old king asked the attendants on his left and right.

Return to Your Majesty, not yet. According to my subordinates, His Highness the Crown Prince should be on his way back to the island. When he arrives on the island, he will definitely send you a message. An attendant replied cautiously.

The old king nodded: Yes, he is a filial child and won't let me worry about him.

Since Prince Xiu Senya became the crown prince of the kingdom, the old king attached more and more importance to him day by day, and even his travels were always on his mind. It can be seen how much hope he placed on Prince Xiu Senya.

After looking up at the moon for a while, the old king decided to go back to the palace, so a group of people marched from the city gate towards the palace.

There is a curfew in the capital at night, and the movement of this group of people did not disturb the lives of the people in the capital.

Wait until you get back to the palace. When the old king was about to take a rest, an imperial mage suddenly came forward to ask for an audience, saying that the news of Prince Xiu Senya had come back.

Quickly, bring the letter up. The old king hadn't fallen asleep yet, but when he heard the news of his second son, he regained his energy and summoned the imperial mage.

Yes, Your Majesty. The imperial mage handed the letter to the servant, who carefully handed the letter to the king.

Opening the cover, pulling out the letter inside, looking at the familiar handwriting on it, the old king's mood suddenly brightened.

However, this kind of happiness didn't last long, and the old king's face revealed a look of shock.

I really didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. The old king got off his seat and walked back and forth in the palace, as if he was surprised by something.

Your Majesty, you... Everyone in the hall, including the imperial mage, looked nervously at the old king.

I'm fine, you all step back, I'm going to rest. The old king held the letter in his hand. He said to everyone present: Also, ask Princess Qiannia to wait for me here tomorrow morning, I have something to tell her.

Yes, Your Majesty. The servant at the side said.

Afterwards, the old king walked out of the hall, and slept peacefully in the bedroom under the service of the servants.

Early the next morning, when the sun shone into the hall, a slim figure appeared at the door of the hall.

I've seen the princess. The servants on both sides hurriedly saluted.

Free gift.

Princess Qiannia was talking. While holding up the hem of her skirt, she walked in from the outside.

Qianiya, you're here. When she entered the hall, the old king was walking back and forth in the hall with his back turned to her. He turned around suddenly when he heard her voice.

Father, do you need me? Princess Qiannia walked over with a smile and asked.

Yes, I have a task for you to handle. This letter was sent back by your second brother. Please take a look. The old king handed the letter in his hand to her.

Princess Qiannia took it in her hand and looked at it carefully, with a look of shock on her face: Earl Tetashaw has been promoted to the seventeenth level, and a new druid union has been established? Is this true?

It's true, so I'm going to send you to congratulate Earl Tetasio on my behalf. The old king said with a smile.

Okay, I will definitely complete the task! Princess Qianniya's eyes lit up, and she took over the task.

Three days later, after preparing the presents, she set off in the direction of Tetashaw under the protection of a group of attendants.

This big move by Tetashaw not only shocked the royal family, but also shocked almost all the forces adjacent to Tetashaw.

The temple forces dominated by the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture were shocked by Tetashaw's actions. They also used the method of magic transmission to quickly convey the news to the headquarters of the Temple of the Goddess of Agriculture in their country. .

After receiving the news and praying to the goddess, the Archbishop of the Temple of the Goddess of Agriculture decided to come to Tetashaw's side to congratulate Romon himself.

There is no doubt that this is a very strong support.

My lord, you are here now. At any rate, help the leader, my head is going to explode. The government affairs hall of Yuanfan Port City was in a mess, because there were always things to deal with, officials big and small None of them is idle.

Nick put down a book and rubbed the space between his brows, only to realize that the man in front of him looked very leisurely, drinking tea and reading a book.

As a result, Nick's mood suddenly became more depressed.

Okay, let me sort out the list of gifts for you and see how many guests are there at the ceremony. Do you think there will be more than 2,000 people by then? Romon drank the last sip of tea after toasting, Walked over, sat beside Nick, and talked.

It's more than 2,000 people. It's already more than this number now. Look, besides the nobles in the territory, the neighboring nobles have also come to congratulate them one after another, explaining that they will participate in the ceremony of that day. Nick held put a list in front of Romon, and said.

Although he was a little busy, Nick's face was full of excitement besides exhaustion, an unconcealable excitement!

At that time, more people will come to the territory, which will definitely stimulate the economy in the territory!

Even if it is only a week, it is enough to affect the tax revenue for half a year this year!

Nick is the chief of the interior of the territory, how could he not be excited in this situation!

Romon flipped through a few pages of the congratulatory list, and unexpectedly discovered that the nobles who had conflicts with him before, even the old Viscount who had fought for power with him were among them, which made him not only sigh, but when two people When the gap between two people is not too big, the low person will be jealous and resentful, but when the gap between two people is too large to be spoken, the jealousy and resentment will basically not appear.

Because the gap is too big, there is no comparability at all.

Over the past few years, as Romon's own strength and the strength of the territory have become stronger and stronger, the voices opposing him in the county have gradually disappeared. Instead, they are voices trying to repair the relationship with him. Those nobles still want to live a peaceful life after all. .

Putting down the list in his hand, Romon asked, Is there any news from Prince Xiu Senya?

Of course there is. Someone has been sent to inform this place, saying that His Highness will come to congratulate him in person. It should come within a day or two. Nick replied.

Romon nodded: The relationship with him still needs to be maintained. There should be as little friction as possible between the local nobles and the royal family.

I know, by the way, I just received two messages saying that yes, the royal family sent Princess Qiannia to congratulate her, and she is already on her way. Also, the archbishop of the Temple of the Goddess of Agriculture is already on her way. , will also congratulate us in person, and it will be very lively on the day of the ceremony. Nick said.

Luo Meng nodded and said: Yes, that day will definitely be very lively, and the security work must be done properly.

Don't worry, Farfell, he has already started preparing. Nick said with a smile.

Romon stood up gently, pushed open the window on the side, and looked out condescendingly. Looking out from here, one can see that the outside is a scene of incomparable prosperity.

When that day comes, I'm afraid the territory will be even more lively, right?

Nick, when the time comes, we will shock the entire continent! Having said that, Romon smiled. (!)
