My family really has a throne to inherit
Chapter 53
The last one who came out was Lan Fang, a retainer who went to Amestorius with Yao Lin and me, and Yao Lin's personal bodyguard.
She looked very shocked when she saw me, but she immediately shouted subconsciously: "Young Master Lan!...Ah, no, Master Patriarch!"
"...No, don't call me that. Say goodbye to both of them." It sounds really shameful now... I waved my hand and asked the most important question, "Where is Yao Lin?"
After becoming the emperor, you must not run around.
Lan Fang was very shocked that I got married outside and had such a big child... But this is normal, the flow of time in the two worlds seems to be different.I have been in that world for 15 years, but it seems that five years have passed here... The so-called three to one?
Yao Lin has only been emperor for two years now.
Although I heard the follow-up of what happened at that time from Edward's side... But the specific situation on Yao Lin's side, I must still ask myself.
I didn't go to see Yao Lin directly, but went to change my clothes first.After all, we are now in Xinguo...
"Young Master Nana, why don't you change your outfit?" Lan Fang looked at Nana and suggested.
I don't think this is a big deal... After all, when I was at home, I sometimes drew sketches to customize Xin Guo's clothes for Nana to wear.
But Lan Fang's title...
I looked at Nana's bright eyes and seemed more excited, and couldn't help whispering to Qihai: "I think Nana seems to like the title of young master..."
"She's only five years old after all."
"...I was called this until I was 17 years old."
"...No, I didn't mean you were in secondary school." Qihai looked at me, "Is this... the traditional costume of your new country?"
"Huh? It can't be counted... Only the head of the family is qualified to wear this, so it will look more gorgeous." I straightened my sleeves.I haven't worn this type of clothes for so many years, and I don't feel uncomfortable wearing them now... Sure enough, it's because I'm still from New China at heart!
I lowered my head slightly, raised my hand to touch my chin, and thought about it: "Do you think I should pretend to be a ghost to scare Yao Lin?"
Lan Fang immediately stopped me: "My lord, please don't do this!"
Even Qihai stood by her side: "Be nice to your brother you haven't seen for many years."
Finally, I went to meet Yao Lin alone.
This guy needs to report to everyone now.When I walked into the main hall, the other party was sitting on the main hall, looking down at me.
After staring at each other for a while, the black-haired young man who was full of majesty jumped up and laughed loudly: "I knew my sister couldn't die so easily!"
"Don't say dead words casually in the hall, it's like cursing me." I finished with a straight face, and finally couldn't help but relax, looking at my brother who was almost the same as in memory, my tone softened all of a sudden Come down, "Xiao Lin, you have grown up..."
"Where did you go, sister? I've been looking for you for a long time and there is no trace of you. If it weren't for the fact that I haven't found your body and I always feel that you are not dead, I would have thought that something happened to you." Yao Lin came over and took my hand and walked up, muttering non-stop, "I have a lot of questions I want to ask you! You have to make it clear, I order you as the emperor!"
"Don't show your emperor's genealogy in front of your sister and me! You have only been on the throne for less than two years! Also, this is your position, right? Don't just let people sit, even if I am your sister!"
Yao Lin looked nonchalant: "It doesn't matter, right? Didn't we say that whoever survives will take this seat."
"There is obviously another sentence before this sentence. If both of you survive, you can take this seat?" Looking at the other party's foolish look, the sense of alienation that had been lingering because of the long time has dissipated. Quite a few, "You're still the same as before. When Glid took over your body, he said he would share the throne with him... By the way, where is Glid? Is he still there?"
"..." Yao Lin's expression suddenly subsided, resting his chin with one hand, he said sullenly, "He's gone."
I was taken aback.
Ah... It's true that I didn't ask Edward about the fate of those artificial humans...
"At that time, in order not to hurt me, he lied and sent himself to die." Yao Lin's tone sounded quite calm, "That guy said that he is the embodiment of greed, he wants money, he wants women's status and reputation, he wants Eternal life or something... but in the end I don't want anything."
"Little Lin..."
"What he really wants is a partner."
"Well, he was born out of greed and died out of satisfaction." I walked over and put my hand on Yao Lin's shoulder, "He got what he wanted. Although we are sorry, we should also repay him for his choice." With respect and respect."
"I know...it's just that you mentioned it, so I just said it."
"Actually, I'm also very sorry. I've told him several times, and after you admitted him, I also said that I recognize him as my younger brother, but I still haven't heard him call my sister. That guy has a really awkward personality."
"...No, sister, I think it doesn't matter whether it's awkward or not, he will never shout, the kind that he would never shout."
Yao Lin and I continued to chat.
He told what happened after he returned to Xinguo.Including how to deal with the dying emperor's father, how to become the prince, how to succeed to the throne and appease the clans, and find a way to completely integrate multiple clans into a unified one.
At the end, he also complained: "If my sister is here, I can relax a lot."
"But you can handle it well by yourself." I looked at him with a smile, feeling relieved in my heart, "I saw the current Xinguo, Yao Lin, you are qualified... No, you are an excellent king. .”
"Actually, I think I haven't done enough..." Yao Lin smiled at me and sighed, but he didn't continue this topic, but asked about my affairs.
Compared with Yao Lin's big event, my side seems much smaller, and it's pretty quick to talk about.
For me, it feels really cool to be able to fish as much as you want without having to deal with political affairs and use your brain, and what I do is also what I like. Later, I went to work in the bakery again, but the time I went there was about twice a week. sky.
After that, even if I suddenly miss the old days, I went to the high school and told Mr. Wujo that he wished to leave everything to me and run away by himself.It's just that this kind of thing is a bit of a sequelae, and there will be more things thrown at me than I imagined.
Although he was a little surprised about my marriage, Yao Lin didn't say much.
This is what we have always measured. For the other party to find someone they like, it must be a blessing rather than a hindrance.
To be honest, I have never understood the kind of plots seen in TV dramas, such as the brother-in-law who accuses the brother-in-law to make trouble for the brother-in-law. Should it be a blessing and happiness for my sister?Why would you be jealous instead?It's not that he found another brother.Could it be that if the siblings have a good relationship, they will be hostile to the men around the sister?
I think according to Yao Lin's personality, let alone me and Qihai, even if I found two, as long as I like it, he will definitely nod and accept it and don't care.
Similarly, I certainly don't mind what kind of wife he finds, as long as he likes it and as long as the other party doesn't cause him any harm.
Even if he wants to marry fifty as he bragged to Glid before... Uh, no, I still have to mind this.This one is also a bit too much.
Yao Lin actually didn't have many questions about Qihai, after he was sure that we were together after liking each other and we were a legal couple, he didn't care about it.
He was more curious about Nana, and immediately pulled me to see Nana: "Let's go! I'm going to meet my niece!"
Coincidentally, Nana is also very curious about this uncle.
As soon as she saw the other party, Nana yelled out precisely without warning: "Uncle!"
"Yo! Nana!" Yao Lin stepped forward quickly, looking down at Xiao Douding in front of him, "Yes, this dress suits you very well!"
Yao Lin saw Qihai, and after a quick look around, he called out generously: "Brother-in-law."
On the other hand, Qihai was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, didn't know what to shout for a while, and cast a look at me for help.
"Just call him His Majesty." I whispered.
Yao Lin heard it and waved his hand: "You don't have an emperor over there, so there's no need, just call me by my name."
After he finished speaking, he squatted down and started a conversation with Nana.
"Uncle, uncle, can my words be called young master?"
"Look at the silly things you said, your mother is the serious Yao family patriarch, of course you are the veritable young master of the Yao family!"
"Then...uncle, is it true that my mother said that I also have the right to inherit the throne?"
"Oh, your uncle and I have been stared at by you within two years of taking the position? This kind of ambition is very typical of our Yao family... That's right, you do have the right to inherit. But this position is not so good It's not so easy to sit on if you get it!"
"I know! But is there any advantage to being an emperor?"
"This... You are too young for money and power, so I guess it's hard to understand... If you become an emperor, you can marry fifty. How is it? Are you tempted?"
"Hey--"
"Yao Lin! Don't teach your niece strange things! Also, do you really want to marry fifty?"
"Brother Lan, please don't instill strange thoughts in my daughter."
"Your Majesty—! You can't say such things to a five-year-old child!"
"Ah—I'm so pissed off, this bastard brother—" I couldn't help complaining, "In the end, I only maintained that appearance when we first met, and the rest is completely the same as before!"
Qihai looked at me with a smile: "But Lan, are you happy to see your brother?"
"...Well, that's true." I looked relieved, "It's great...he has indeed become a good king."
"Your brother is very open-minded and a wise gentleman."
"Well, although he said that he wants a lot of things, such as power, he has always put people in the highest position."
"……orchid."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"If you want to stay here, don't worry about me." Nanami held my hand, "It's like what you said when you got married... No matter where you want, I will be with you."
"Jianren..." I looked at him blankly, and after a long silence, I smiled, "No, let's go back."
Seeing that the other party wanted to say something, I raised my index finger and tapped the other party's lips to signal him to silence: "Listen to me first—don't worry, I didn't force it. It's just... Yao Lin has governed Xinguo very well. Don't worry. Since I don't have the burden of being an imperial concubine, I want to experience other worlds."
I looked at Qihai who was slightly startled, and laughed: "I have experienced a lot here. For me, after this visit is over, I have no regrets. But I haven't finished watching the scenery of that world yet." .”
There was also a faint smile on Qihai's face: "Yeah."
I leaned over to kiss him, and then started to worry about another thing: "But Nana..."
Qihai thought of something, and her expression became a lot more dignified.
When we felt a little headache, Nai Nai also ran in, jumped over and sat on my lap, with an excited look on his face.
I raised my hand to help her straighten her messy hair, and asked, "Nai Nai, do you like this place?"
"Well! Uncle and everyone are very interesting! Mom, let's play for a few more days before going back!"
"Hey—do you still want to go back?"
Nana took it for granted: "Yes, there is a TV show I want to watch next week!"
"Ah, it's like this..." I felt a little helpless - I was still a child at heart... But how to tell her, it was an accident that we came back here, and I don't know if we can come here again next time, and when we will come here Woolen cloth……
"By the way, Mom, I think I still want to inherit the throne."
"Hey?" I was taken aback, hesitated, "Do you want to inherit the new kingdom?"
"No, I think Uncle Xinguo governs well, and I'm not very familiar with Xinguo after all. For Xinguo, let uncle's children inherit it. After all, if uncle wants to marry fifty wives, he must have many children." Nana He clenched his hands into fists, "If it's me, go and occupy your own territory... Dad, Mom, what do you think of me taking over the magic world?"
Seven Seas: "..."
Me: "...don't mention us, your uncle Wutiao will probably be very happy. But then it's not the throne..."
"When I occupy the highest power, I will have the final say on what everyone calls me!"
Me: "..." She's surprisingly smart on this point, this girl!
Nana said loudly, "Then, I want to marry fifty more!"
Qihai and I immediately sighed and rubbed our foreheads together, we both had some headaches, but it's not surprising - we are still obsessed with this!
"Although I said that your character is like your uncle, don't learn it in this kind of place." Fortunately, this girl is only five years old, so she can't take her words too seriously... Uh, wait, Yao Lin also said that when she was five years old I'm going to be emperor, so...
After Nana finished her announcement, she excitedly ran out to play again.
In Xinguo's palace, I'm not worried about her safety at all.that is……
"Jianren, do you think the crime of bigamy can dissuade that child?"
"... She is only five years old, how can she have so many thoughts." After Qihai finished speaking, she was silent for a while, and added, "But I still have to persuade her to give up this idea."
"Hmm... I'll beat that brat Yao Lin up later!"
The author has something to say: a small theater with no responsibility
Lan: Who do you want to marry when you say fifty!Don't compromise quality for quantity!
Nana: Hmm... First of all, I think Megumi and Natsume are fine.
Lan: Uh... Thinking about it this way, it seems...
Seven Seas: Hello.
Hui & Natsume:? ? ?
[Okay, this article officially ends here!I will change it to the completed state when the list is released on Thursday.At that time, those who want to finish scoring can come and play at that time... But JJ, this crap, limits the scoring rate. It seems that there is a limit rate for five-stars, and I also feel very stupid.
