A King Is Like a Lion [Interstellar]

Chapter 66

It has been a while since Jialu took over the financial affairs, and there have been no outstanding achievements or changes. People from the Queen's faction really used this to attack Jialu.

Jia Lu knew that this was a tactic by the Queen's faction to make him make a mistake, so he didn't forcefully adjust the finances because of this, and still managed according to the previous arrangement.

People in the queen's faction began to feel that Jialu was getting more and more difficult to deal with, and felt that his deep and forbearing personality was becoming more and more like an emperor. They deliberately made things difficult and designed for Jialu several times. Hidden in the past, but also endured it.

Just as the Queen's faction was using various methods to deal with Jialu, the emperor suddenly became critically ill and ordered Jialu to supervise the country and make all decisions on his behalf.

The emperor fell ill without any sign of being happy, no one was mentally prepared, and the people from the queen's faction panicked because the emperor asked Jialu to supervise the country.

Seeing that the emperor suddenly became seriously ill and the emperor was dying, the queen went to the emperor's bed several times to ask the emperor to order the second prince to come back, but the emperor refused to allow it, and even ordered that if the second prince returned to Dixing without authorization, he would be punished for treason .

Jia Lu, who suddenly took over the job of supervising the country, was also in a very complicated mood. He felt that his goal seemed to be close at hand, but he didn't feel happy at all. He never thought of exchanging his father's life for all of this. , he can continue to fight the queen until the queen is defeated, instead of winning in this way.

Jialu went to check on the emperor every day. The emperor was indeed very ill. He didn't seem sick at all before, so Jialu had to wonder if the queen had done something wrong, but after thinking about it carefully Thinking, the second prince has not returned to the Emperor Star yet, so why would the Queen do it at this time?

Although Ole didn't see the emperor's illness with his own eyes, it was not difficult to know that the emperor's current condition must be quite bad from Jialu's frowning and serious eyes.

"You look very tired, do you want to take a rest?" Ole asked Jialu while holding Jialu's waist. Since the emperor fell ill and supervised the Kingdom of Jialu, Jialu has never had a good rest every day. Being busy with such things, and worrying about the emperor's condition, Jialu's expression is quite bad now. Ever since Jialu took out the extreme fire, Ole hasn't seen such a face on Jialu for a long time, which makes He felt a little distressed.

"I'm fine." Jia Lu put his arms around Ole, resting his forehead against the top of his head.

Someone from the palace said that the emperor was about to die and wanted to see Jialu and Simba. After receiving the news, Jialu immediately took Simba to the palace.

"Royal father." Jia Lu knelt on one knee in front of the emperor's bed, looking at his royal father who had aged as if a tree had withered in less than a month. He never thought that his always heroic and stalwart father would change. into what it is today.

The emperor tremblingly stretched out his thin and feeble hand to Jialu, and Jialu quickly held it.

"I have already done what I can do for you, and you have grown better than before. Finally, I can see you, Aya, without regret." The emperor finished his sentence with an air of gossamer.

"Father..." Jia Lu couldn't help but choked up.

"I'll leave everything to you in the future, don't let me and you, Aya, down." The emperor looked at Jia Lu with cloudy eyes, and said with all his strength.

"I will never let you down." Jia Lu strongly assured.

"Sim, Simba." The emperor looked at Simba who was standing behind Jialu.

"Grandfather." Simba stepped forward and lay down on the emperor's bedside, looking at this grandfather who looked serious but was very kind to him. He knew that he would not be able to chat with him after knowing his grandfather, and he would have many interesting things with him. .

"It's a pity, but, it's a pity, you, Aya, couldn't see this child." After looking at Simba reluctantly, the emperor looked at Jia Lu and said, "In three days, finish the funeral, after that, you can let go and do it." Bar."

Jialu suppressed his grief, unable to answer the emperor's words.

The emperor, who had no strength to speak anymore, raised his finger and pointed to the wall opposite the bed.

Knowing what he meant, Jialu stood up and went to the wall and opened the curtains on the entire wall. On the wall was a huge portrait. It was painted by someone. When he was young, his father would often look at the portrait with him and miss Aya.

Even after the father married a new queen, they arranged them in other palaces. Only the three of them lived in this room in this palace.

Looking at the portrait of Garuaya, the emperor smiled, and then slowly closed his eyes.

Jialu ran back to the bed and looked at his father, who was almost out of breath, and called out nervously, "Come here."

The doctor who had been waiting outside the door ran in immediately, and after examining the emperor, he sadly said to Jia Lu, "Your Majesty has already gone."

This doctor has followed his father for many years, and he is his father's confidant. Jialu knew that he must know something, and asked with pain and anger in his heart, "What's the matter with father's illness? Was it done by the queen? "

The emperor had never let the doctor tell Jialu the real reason for his illness before, but now that the emperor has gone, the doctor felt that he should let Jialu know, "It wasn't caused by the empress. Your majesty's illness actually happened before marrying the new empress. Yes, for many years."

"Impossible." Jia Lu couldn't believe it, his father had been ill for so many years, it was impossible for him not to notice it at all.

"It's true, His Majesty was often in a trance after a serious illness due to the death of the former king and empress, and later suffered a serious injury in a battle. This injury dragged on for a long time because of one battle after another. He couldn't be cured, and finally dragged His Majesty's body down completely, but he kept all this from everyone else, and didn't know that he was actually getting worse and worse in front of anyone, because you can Before succeeding him as the emperor, he could not let anyone know about his illness and take advantage of it, so he has been enduring the illness all these years alone, and it is a miracle that he can endure it until now."

Jialu couldn't tell what kind of mood he was in now, remorse, sadness or heartache, tears flowed down the back of his father's cold hands.

The disappearance of the emperor's death was announced to the entire empire. According to the emperor's last words, a three-day funeral was held. In fact, the emperor died, and the funeral should last at least fifteen days.

After Jia Lu came back from the palace, he remained silent. Ole had never looked so depressed and depressed. He knew that it was because of sadness and sadness that he was like this. Ole also wanted to feel very sad. The pain of losing a loved one is not So easy to resolve.

The two were lying on the bed, and Ole was holding Jia Lu's head, not knowing how to comfort him for a while.

Fortunately, Jia Lu spoke first, "Everything he did was for me, but I hated and resisted him because he protected the queen. I didn't realize how naive and ignorant I was before. I am the only person who is partial, and the queen is just a means for him to contain the Wiches family, and he has never fallen in love with anyone other than Aya."

"He is a good emperor, a good husband and a good father." Thinking about it carefully, Ole really admires Jialu's father, who lost his love early, and endured the pain and loneliness of his heart silently. For many years, I just waited for the day when the child born to my beloved can truly become strong and stand alone. Not everyone can do all of this. "I know you are very sad, but your royal father Surely I didn't blame you."

Ole knew that Jialu's current mood could not be healed just by saying, "Don't be sad. No matter what I say to comfort him now, it can't make him stop being sad now. The pain in his heart can only be achieved with time." Help him heal slowly, even if he recovers in the future, it will still leave obvious scars.

Jia Lu finally suppressed the sadness in his heart, forced himself to cheer up, and returned to the palace to organize his father's funeral in person.

The three-day funeral time passed quickly, and when it was time for the burial, the queen led people to prevent the emperor from being transported away for burial, saying that the second prince hadn't seen his father for the last time, so he couldn't burial.

Before the emperor died, he also ordered the second prince to return to the Emperor Star. Even if the queen sent someone to notify the second prince to come back immediately after the emperor's death, it would take at least ten days to return to the Emperor Star.

However, the emperor had told many ministers that his funeral should not exceed three days, so no matter how the empress and the empress tried to stop him, Jialu could forcefully transport the emperor's body out of the palace for burial on the grounds of his father's last words.

The burial place of each emperor of the Renaud Empire is known only to his eldest son and queen, and because Jialu's Aya died earlier than the emperor, so only Jialu and the emperor know his burial place.

When Jialu was young, his father would occasionally take him to the place where Aya was buried to see him, and then said to Jialu, just bury me next to your Aya in the future.

Therefore, according to his father's wish, Jialu buried him beside his Aya, and only Jialu, Ouler and Simba knew the place of burial.

The queen smashed everything that could be smashed into pieces in her room, and then yelled angrily, "How can you treat me so unfairly?"

The queen's previously perfect, soft and elegant face like a mask has completely collapsed, and now there is only a hideous look left due to anger.

The shattered porcelain piece scratched the queen's hand, and he seemed unconscious, letting his blood flow. After venting his anger, the queen fell to the ground, and sorrow erupted like a fountain.

He recalled what he had said with the emperor before he became queen.
