The next day, as soon as the sky turned white, the two cities became lively and seemed to be full of vitality. It is still the square in the center of the Twin Cities, filled with almost the people of the Twin Cities. Here, a rare primary election ceremony will be held. There was a huge crowd, but it was orderly. Although it was extremely noisy, everyone was very cautious. So everyone holds a piece of white paper in their hands, and only needs to write down the name of the chosen prince on the paper.
The paper used in the primary election ceremony is very special. It has been baptized by magic. Only magic water can be used to write on it. It can only be written once at the same time. It cannot be altered or forged. Since ancient times, only the words of emperors can be written on it. Only experts master this mysterious method.
After receiving the news from the king last night, Bert and Emperor Shanzhi in the castle made preparations and arrived at the Twin Cities before dawn.
With such a grand ceremony, the respected princes, generals, ministers and nobles of the Pascal Empire also came in droves, all gathered here, because they also have the power to elect. The fate of the empire must not be careless. Therefore, selecting a qualified crown prince is a great good thing for the empire and the people. Otherwise, it will be a disaster. Since ancient times, there have been legends about the failure of the emperor and the defeat of the country in the world's empires, so we must be cautious. for it.
Shan Zhe felt it quite well and laughed loudly. Princes, how did your father leave in the first place? "Don't skip words.
?Jer suddenly became interested, his eyes seemed to be flashing with the desire for knowledge, and he asked me urgently, "Uncle Shanzhi, tell me quickly."
"Shanzhu, don't make a mess." There were many invisible beads of sweat on Yao Tian's face.
"Brother Yao Tian, ??what's the harm in letting these boys do those old things?" Shan Zhe became interested, and it seemed that he wouldn't be happy if he didn't vomit.
"I'm interested too." Parra pricked up her ears.
"At the beginning, Brother Yiao Tian did not appear in the primary election ceremony As a result, the primary election ceremony was messed up. The late emperor was so angry that he sent people to arrest him. Later, the primary election ceremony was held again. The danger was that his vote count and Chen There was only one vote difference between Tian's and Tian's votes, and it was precisely because of this difference that Brother Yao Tian was qualified to be a candidate for crown prince." Shan Zhe still feels ashamed when he thinks about it, because he was also present at the time.
"You still have the nerve to say, you betrayed me, and I haven't settled the score with you yet?" Yao Tian got angry when he thought about it.
"You can't blame me. You are not a simple person if you want the late emperor. Even if he doesn't force me to tell you your whereabouts, he will still have a way to arrest you. Before that, weren't you captured several times?" Bu Tiao Character. Shanzhe regretted talking about this matter, it was like a slap in the face.
"Uncle Shanzhe, is it that your father plays outside all day long and gives the late emperor a headache?" Jier smiled strangely.
Shanzhe hesitated for a few moments, then turned his gaze to Changtian, who was sleeping on a chair behind him, and breathed out heavily. He felt that his chest was being pressed, very depressed and heavy. He was thinking that if he could turn back time, what would he have been like back then? The situation may have become a little different. As for right and wrong, he can no longer make a correct judgment, and he has no choice but to be born in an emperor's family.
Parra was curious, and seeing Uncle Shanzhe's face full of sadness, he felt that this matter was not simple. He felt that he had to understand it clearly, "Uncle Shanzhe, why did you suddenly stop talking?" There must be something ulterior. "
The boy Shanzhe Changtian didn't fall asleep, he just closed his eyes and rested his mind. He was worried about Brother Yaotian, so he couldn't say anything.
"Father, tell us quickly" Tan Mi leaned over.
"Shan Zhe, it doesn't matter. We have already told the children. Sooner or later, paper cannot contain the fire." Yao Tian also figured it out. They have become memories. As for whether to say it or not, it no longer matters, because what is lost will never be lost. Again. His eyes were covered with a layer of gray gloom, and there was an indescribable luster within the gloom.
Shanzhe felt that it was necessary to let Changtian go, so he deliberately walked a few times in order to get closer to Changtian. Only then did he tell the truth. In fact, Brother Yaotian didn't want to be an emperor at all at that time, but the late emperor had a crush on Brother Yuantian. There was great hope, but Brother Yuan Tian fell in love with a very beautiful and gentle woman. The reason why he did not appear at the primary election ceremony was that Brother Yuan Tian planned to wander around the world with that woman, but unexpectedly things went against his wishes. "
??Jer squeaked, laughing so hard that his face turned red, and he held his stomach and said, "My father is really an infatuated child, he only loves beauty and not the country"
The smart Parra had long understood, and blurted out with a heavy heart that the woman was Changtian's mother, right? "Don't skip words.
"Ah" Jer suddenly became dumbfounded.
"Well, at that time, Brother Yuan Tian and Zi Yue truly loved each other, but they could not get the approval of the late emperor, which led to the subsequent tragedy." Shan Zhe hesitated to speak, as if he couldn't bear to arouse Yuan Tian's sadness.
Yao Tian closed his eyes tightly and said nothing, as if he was immersed in memories and refused to return to reality.
Changtian half-opened his eyes indifferently, said this abruptly, and then you and my mother said goodbye by the lake? "Don't skip words.
"Yao Tian was suddenly startled and asked Tian'er guiltily, you"
The little guy lying in Changtian's arms, Changtian, wouldn't answer any more, so he lazily said that the scene he saw was just an image he saw by chance. "
"Is that so?" Don't skip words. Yao Tian has had a hard time over the past ten years. He suffers from heartache day and night and feels extremely guilty. "Tian'er, do you hate your father?" Bu Tiao said.
"Does this make sense to you?" Don't skip words. Changtian suddenly stood up, motioned for the little guy to get bigger, and then sat on Pammy. Before leaving, he left these words: If you have the courage, you will not succumb to cowardice. The guilt in this life will be your punishment. "
"What a disrespectful brat" Shanzhe really wanted to slap him, but he dared to teach his elders a lesson.
"Did he say it? The guilt in this life is my punishment." Yao Tian was in a low mood. Looking at Chang Tian who left here on Pami, he felt an indescribable pain in his heart. The pain was like a long time ago. After ten years, my whole body has become completely unresponsive. My brain is like a player, constantly replaying the memories. My heart is so bitter and regretful.
"But he called you a coward, which is unfilial." Shan Zhe was so angry that there was smoke coming out of his ears.
"I am indeed a complete coward. I fell in love but didn't have the courage to stay together. In the end, I only suffered a lifetime of irreparable trauma. Tian'er's trauma was caused by me. If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have gone through something beyond imagination. Who am I qualified to blame him for his suffering? I just ask that he can live in peace and no longer live for my sins." Yao Tian has never revealed his inner feelings so affectionately, and his mood at the moment can only be To describe it, I have mixed feelings.
At this time, Bert trotted untimely and said with a smile, "King, the result has come out."
It was only then that Yao Tian came to his senses and forced a smile. The sadness hidden under the smile did not fade away. "Are the results out? So fast? It's only morning and so many people have finished voting?"
"Yes, because the people are very active, it will be very fast. Please also ask Yao Tian to announce the selected crown prince." Bert unexpectedly bowed ninety degrees to Yao Tian.
"Oh, yes." Yao Tian walked through the crowd with his head held high, and walked straight to a slightly higher place in the center of the square. After taking the list from Bert's hand, his face was filled with a beautiful smile.
Shanzhu pulled Bert over and asked mysteriously if he could tell me what the result was. "
Bert suddenly became interested and asked, "What do you think?" "
"Pala should be selected, right?" Shanzhe has been very optimistic about this child Pala since he was a child. In his eyes, compared to other princes, Pala has extraordinary courage and qualifications, and handles everything in an orderly manner. The preface is a bad seedling.
"I won't let you go. You better listen to the king's announcement. I guarantee you will be surprised." Bert was very satisfied with the result this time, and he deliberately didn't say anything.
"You, Bert, are becoming more and more showy." Shanzhe snorted boredly.
"Really? The king is about to announce it. Let's just listen and see how the people react." Bert smiled meaningfully.
"You want to see the reaction of the princes? It seems that the result should be unexpected." When Shanzhe saw Bert's unusual smile, he should have thought that the result might be too far from what he imagined.
Moments before the announcement, the crowd suddenly fell silent, an unprecedented silence. The air is filled with a heavy and joyful atmosphere. The leaves falling from the tree crowns around the square are swirling in the air with the gentle breeze. The birds flying high draw a beautiful arc in the sky, as if It brings about indescribable wonders.
Facing the refreshing breeze, Aotian said with a comfortable expression that the first candidate prince selected with 6,600 votes was"
", 6600 high votes? Who is it? Could it be Parra?" Shanzhe was shocked, even the number of votes that Brother Yao Tian got was only 3023.
"My name is Changtian," Yao Tian shouted out proudly.
¡°Oh~~~¡±
¡°Oh~~~¡±
The people cheered enthusiastically and seemed to have no objection to the result.
Shan Zhe was shocked and dared not say that this was true? That kid from Changtian actually got 6,600 votes? "
Bert chuckled and said, "I didn't expect it. I told you it would be beyond your expectations. Let's get over it." "
The most unhappy person was Keller. He scolded him fiercely and secretly that he was selected despite being selected. It was really irritating. I will never let him take the throne away. "
Jer cheers haha?Did you hear that? The sixth brother was electedTangya, that guy was elected, it's really surprising. "
Tamiya was also shocked, and then smiled and responded, "Yes, he is such an incredible person." "
"The second candidate prince selected with 1870 votes is Yu Ming Pala, and the third candidate prince selected with 1026 votes is Yu Ming Jier. The results of the primary election ceremony have been announced. Thank you for your strong support from the people. Thank you." Yao Tian said extremely excitedly.
"No way I was also selected?" Jer was a little unsure and reacted after a few seconds. Although he was a little happy, he smiled bitterly when he thought of his father's sternness.
"Second brother, congratulations on being selected. This is natural." Ling'er touched the expressionless Parra with his hand.
"Yes" Parra suddenly laughed.
"Second brother, what were you thinking about just now?" Ling'er asked with concern.
"No, that's fine." Parra wasn't dissatisfied at all, just a little stunned. On the contrary, Keller, who was not selected, was very angry, but had nowhere to vent. He could only secretly curse the damn Changtian in his heart for taking away everything he deserved. A resentment became heavier and heavier, hovering in the darkness inside his heart. place.
