In the main hall, the emperor had already appeared quite impatient and sullen, and the left and right myopic ministers looked at each other nervously, intending to ease the tension, but they didn't know how to speak.

Until Xie Jin appeared in the hall with Jhin, the scene was suddenly silent, and Goval's expression became more angry. He stood up and asked sharply, "Where did you go?"

The people around were silent, and the nobles of the empire looked at Jhin from a distance, feeling a little more uncertain about his control over the empire.

Goval sensed that the atmosphere was not right, immediately changed his attitude, and asked hastily: "Recently the rebel army has been making frequent moves. Since you have accepted the position of crown prince, you must be fully prepared to deal with it. You must be careful in everything. If something happens to you , how can I be worthy of your mother in heaven!"

Jin hung his head and said nothing, Xie Jin spoke for him: "Your Majesty, Your Highness Jin just told me a lot."

Goval frowned slightly, not wanting to give Xie Jin any chance to speak, he was interrupted by Xie Jin loudly when he was about to speak.

Xie Jin said: "His Royal Highness Jhin was brought back from Alpha, and I was both a teacher and a friend to him. This time he succeeded as the crown prince, he was very anxious. From the moment he came to the imperial capital, I have been watching him grow. , I can clearly say that he works harder than any military student. Even so, he doesn't know whether he is qualified to be the crown prince, or even become the emperor in the future."

"He..." Goval wanted to speak again, but Xie Jin still didn't give him a chance to speak.

Xie Jin raised his voice and said: "Your Majesty, he is terrified. I still persuade him to come. He has the blood of Goval, so he should undertake the mission of Goval. Your Majesty is in his prime, and my Baifeng Empire has signed a contract with the Drey Empire. After signing a long-term peace agreement, within ten years, I believe that he will grow into an emperor that every citizen of the imperial capital will recognize. Not to mention..."

Xie Jin paused here, he turned around and glanced at Jhin, his eyes seemed to contain a thousand words, mixed with sentimentality—at least in the eyes of others—the deep voice was clearly conveyed to every corner of the hall.

"What's more, I have to assist him."

The surroundings were silent, Xie Jin had never recognized anyone on such occasions, even if he tried his best to appoint an ordinary poor man as the deputy commander of the army, it was just a "casual" greeting to the emperor, so everyone had to say hello to the emperor. Jhin looked at him with admiration.

In addition, in the ten-player competition, Jhin did come out on top by relying on his transcendent skills.

Yes, the emperor is still young, even if Jhin has not been educated by the nobility before, it is still in time from now on, let alone with the assistance of General Xie Jin. A larger part of the reason is his flawless tactical arrangements and military command.

and many more!and many more!

They suddenly thought of a question.

Although the emperor didn't say it explicitly, most people knew that Xie Jin, Dromond's former fiancée, was likely to become the crown prince's appendage.But what they know better is that Xie Jin's resistance to this marriage contract originally thought that it would take a lot of work, but now it seems——

Xie Jin is very supportive of Jhin's succession. In this way, some of Xie Jin's power will be used by Jhin. Although this power is not really felt in the imperial capital, if you go to the border, you will find how terrifying power Xie Jin holds in his hands. .

Xie Jin: "Your Majesty," Xie Jin put one hand on his chest, bowed deeply to Goval, and performed noble etiquette, "If you want to punish, please punish me."

Goval's face darkened: "General Xie Jin, I never meant to punish my prince, on the contrary, I want to thank you."

Worried about the reincarnation, Goval said directly: "Okay, the time has been delayed long enough, let's start the ceremony now."

The high priest at the side hurriedly stepped forward holding the Crown Prince's crown, and proclaimed a prayer to Jhin.

Jhin lowered his head, and the voices of the choirs on both sides were clear and ethereal, echoing repeatedly in the resplendent hall, and the high priest chanted the prayer line by line until the last line.

"May the heroic spirits of Phrox protect you—"

Jhin read in a low voice: "May the heroes of Forox's generations protect me—"

The crown prince was buckled on Jin's head, applause resounded in the hall, and Goval smiled gratifiedly.

Then came the dinner of the succession ceremony. The patriarchs of the major families brought their future young patriarchs to meet Jhin. Jhin had done his homework before, and most of the people who came to say hello to him were called by name. Xie Jin was on the sidelines to help , all the way.

At nine o'clock in the evening, although the banquet was not over yet, Goval called Xie Jin and Jin to leave early.

The lights in the banquet hall were brightly lit, illuminating the night like day, and the stars flickered, fleeting.

The two followed the emperor and went straight to the small garden.

Xie Jin raised his head and glanced at the two guards following the emperor. When he came out of the banquet hall just now, he saw the appearance of the two of them. They were obviously members of the Monte family, with a high nose, wide mouth, and brown pupils of the Monte family. But before that, Xie Jin had never seen these two people, not even in the banquet hall just now.

He lightly pulled the corner of Jin's clothes, motioning Jin to pay attention to these two people, Jin glanced at them, and shook his head at Xie Jin.

Xie Jin paused when he realized where the emperor was going to take them, and his face sank.

"Your Majesty seems to have a soft spot for this place." Xie Jin said.

Not far away is the small courtyard where Goval fainted Xie Jin last time. The lilacs have passed the flowering period, and the courtyard is filled with the fragrance of peonies, but since the last time, Xie Jin has become very sensitive to the fragrance of flowers.

Goval laughed twice and said, "Jin is with you, so you don't have to worry."

Xie Jin: "I'm not worried."

The maid brought fine wine to the three of them. After Goval drank a cup, his face was full of drunkards. He groaned and said, "Today is one of my thoughts. The throne of the empire has been confirmed. Get married."

"Is there something wrong with my body?" Xie Jin asked immediately.

Goval glanced at him unexpectedly: "You know?"

Xie Jin shook his head: "I don't know, but I can guess that the marriage between me and Dromond was originally scheduled after he graduated, but now, you are in a hurry to get me and Jhin to marry and have children. There are two possibilities. First, There's something wrong with your body, and number two, something wrong with my body, I chose the latter."

"Yes," Goval said bluntly, "you have been using inhibitors to suppress the pain caused by the estrus period. The burden on the body is too great, so it is difficult to produce good enough offspring, and you can't continue to delay it. Or, you can do it as soon as possible. Combine with Jhin, but you will continue this marriage. You will give birth to Jhin's offspring, and he will become the future of the empire, which is a good thing for you."

"Your thinking is like a determined parent forcing his child to do things he doesn't want to do but you think are good."

Goval smiled deeply: "Really?" He suddenly withdrew the smile on his face, and said sharply, "But some people don't think so—"

As soon as Goval slapped the table, several guards came in from outside the pavilion. There were three guards in total, holding three big bags in their hands, and they threw the bags in front of Xie Jin and the others.

There seemed to be someone in those three bags, and the mouths of the bags were tied tightly, but Xie Jin could still smell a faint smell of blood.

"What is this?" Xie Jin asked.

"Open." The emperor ordered, and the three guards tore off the rope that tied the mouth of the bag, and peeled off the bag, revealing the dead and stiff corpse inside the bag.

The three corpses were all wearing the clothes of the guards of the Crystal Palace. Xie Jin scanned them one by one and found that they were all the guards who were in charge of patrolling the banquet hall just now.

"They..." Xie Jin asked hesitantly, "Who are they?"

"The rebels," said the Emperor, "besides the three of them, there were two of them. They killed the nobles, and they came to the dinner party disguised as them, with the purpose of murdering me!"

The emperor's eyes suddenly fell on Jin's face, as if he wanted to see through Jin's soul: "If you kill Zhen, who will benefit the most?" He asked the same question as Xie Jin.

Jhin: "It's definitely not me."

"Oh?" Goval made a voice of interest.

He told the emperor exactly what he said to Xie Jin, and Goval nodded: "I don't think it's you either. After my death, the power of the Quartet will be difficult to level. Such a stupid thing. But these assassins—must be strictly investigated! Their ability to enter the hall proves that someone has lured them in, and the dark ghosts hiding in the empire must be caught!"

"Yes."

Xie Jin and Jin responded at the same time.

Goval laughed in satisfaction. He leaned back on the recliner and took a sip of wine: "I will ask the high priest to choose a suitable time for your wedding. I will go back and prepare during this time. I hope to see you soon. children."

"Yes."

The two agreed again.

Goval told them to retreat, Jhin looked back at the corpse, his expression was not good.

"The leader of the rebel army, Gray Wolf, is a very irritable person," Xie Jin said to Jhin after boarding the spaceship and setting the route, "I saw his deeds when I was studying in the military academy, and the rebel army ruled by him has no They don’t care about the life and death of their companions, and every time there is a large-scale bombing, it’s really amazing that such a rebel army can continue, and even some people in the people still respect them, hoping that they will replace the emperor and establish a new order.”

Xie Jin added: "But in fact, if you observe carefully, you will find that the areas that the gray wolves choose to bomb are very wide, and generally few people live in them. The places where they camp are refugee camps."

Jhin continued, "Maybe Gray Wolf is not as reckless as we see."

Xie Jin responded lightly: "Maybe. But this time they did it because they were stupid and took the initiative to expose themselves, and I found that the behavior of the rebels has become more and more stupid recently, as if a child who suddenly got something sweet, suddenly It's ridiculous to start bragging about your little ability."

ember:"……"

Xie Jin said: "There's an idiom called "To cover up the truth, isn't it?"
