When Xia Ya entered the palace, everyone was cleared away.
Outside, the cavalry of the strong cavalry battalion has firmly controlled the palace, and not even a single attendant is left.
Then, Xia Ya slowly walked into the meeting hall.
He knew that Adric was ambushed and killed here that day!
When he walked in, he looked at the far corner - there was no blood on the ground, it must have been washed away.
That daythat's where the master died.
Xia Ya only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze.
Then, he looked at Garcia, who was still sitting on it.
Garcia sat in the center seat that symbolized the throne.
He looked so thin that he was almost out of shape, his face was as pale as paper, and there was no trace of blood left.
It¡¯s just that those eyes are full of bloodshot eyes!
"Garcia, I'm here." Xia walked up to him and looked at the emperor of the empire coldly.
"Hmph." Garcia was still walking there, just looking at Xia Ya, gritting his teeth: "So what if you are here! Xia Ya I have been thinking about who will take my life in the end these days. ! As expected, it¡¯s you! And as expected, it¡¯s only you! The most powerful person in this empire to usurp the throne right now is you, Xia Lei Ming, isn¡¯t it?¡±
Xia Ya didn¡¯t speak, just looked at this place, and then sighed softly.
"I remember that there was a restaurant across the corridor ahead." Xia's tone seemed to be very calm: "I remember the first time I came to the imperial capital, the first time I entered the palace. In that restaurant, Kontos His Majesty the Emperor met me there, and he has always appreciated me and used me in important ways. I, Xia, can be where I am today, thanks to His Majesty Kontos's reward."
Garcia said nothing.
"It's a pity. If you hadn't done something I couldn't tolerate, even if it was for the sake of His Majesty Contos, even for the sake of Adeline, I would never kill you."
Garcia just sneered: "Xia, you are so proud Do you think you will become the emperor if you kill me? That old dog Minas will definitely fight with you! Hahahaha! Even if I die, I will. I will watch you fight and fight in the ground, and the blood will flow like a river! I will definitely laugh happily! Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!"
"Then just laugh."
Xia Ya walked up slowly, walked up the steps, and stood in front of Garcia's chair. Then Charia looked down at Garcia who was huddled in the chair: "I'm here today not to kill you, but just to take a look at you and then, by the way, tell you something."
"Tell me something?" Garcia was stunned.
"The first thingDefenni is pregnant." Xia Ya pointed to her nose: "The child is mine."
"You?!" Garcia's color suddenly changed and he jumped up suddenly. Unfortunately, Xia Ya made him sit down again with a tap of his finger.
"The second thing is that I have sent people to the south. Duke Minas wants to negotiate with me They only put forward two conditions. One is to make the child in Delfini's belly the heir to the throne. The other condition It was the Duke who asked for a dignified and prominent position. Of course, I have agreed to his request. So. I have issued an order in your name. The Duke of Minas has worked hard and merited the title of Prime Minister of the Empire, and Luo Di will take over the position of Minister of Military Affairs."
¡°Gege, Gege, Gege¡¡± Garcia¡¯s teeth were trembling.
"Look, my arrangement is pretty good, right?" Xiaya looked into Garcia's eyes and said calmly: "The representative of Duke Minas has almost arrived in the imperial capital After we have reached an agreement, he will start in the south. Withdraw the troops, and then come to the imperial capital in person to take up the post"
He pointed at Garcia's nose: "So, I won't kill you now. I need you to live for a few more months In a few months, when the child is born, I will make the child his heir in your name." .Thenthat's when you can die."
He gently patted Garcia on the shoulder: "So, Garcia, without my permission, even if you want to die, you won't be able to die. I promise you will never do it. If you don't believe it, we can make a bet. "
He then turned around, slowly walked down the steps again, then looked at Garcia and said, "I have carefully interrogated the Imperial Guardsmen in the palace - all those who participated in the ambush of Adric that day. I carefully inquired about every detail before executing them."
After a pause, he whispered: "Before he died, my lord asked you a question. He said, after he dies, who will?Angrily standing in the way of the imperial sword. Right? "
Garcia said nothing.
"You see, my lord is very wise." Xia Ya pointed to his nose: "Now, I am the strong one. Here I come! If the lord is not dead, there will be someone blocking me But now you kill him yourself, So when I come, no one will stop me. Do you think you are stupid? "
When Xia Ya said this, he smiled softly: "Andthis sentence, if I remember correctly, was what Lord Luke, the last Tulip Grand Duke, asked the emperor at that time before he died Speaking of which, you Karenma The stupidity of the family is really passed down from generation to generation! They all have the tradition of unjustly killing their own pillars! Back then you killed the last grand duke of the Tulip family, but then the Odin people rose up and bullied you for hundreds of years. Now you kill Adric, and finally A man who was loyal to the empire! And after his deathothers are almost eager to invite rebellious officials and traitors like me into your palace."
As he spoke, he took a deep breath, looked around again, and then said: "Legend has it that the last Tulip Grand Duke once left a curse before his death, saying Your Kerenma family relied on the Tulip family to rise. If you create a dynasty, your dynasty will definitely end in the hands of Tulip¡¯s descendants in the future!¡±
Having said this, a malicious smile appeared on his face: "Let me tell you a secret, Your Majesty! There are indeed descendants of the Tulip family who have escaped the butcher knife of your Kerenma family and survived! And I My adoptive father is a descendant of the Tulip family! Ican be regarded as the most orthodox heir of the Tulip family in the world! So"
At the end of the sentence, he smiled softly: "The one who destroyed your Kerenma family was indeed Tulip!"
After finishing speaking. Xia Ya bent down and performed a standard courtier's etiquette at the foot of the steps.
"Your Majesty has resigned. Please take good care of yourself. I think we will never meet again. I will not come to see you when you die. As the emperor of the empire, you will only die in obscurity in the lowest place." In the hands of the executioner, there will be no funeral or visitation."
¡¡
Xia Ya walked out of the palace and when he came outside, he said coldly to the guards around him: "Send a flag regiment to guard this place. Anyone who dares to come in or out without my warrant will be shot to death!"
There was a pause. He said: "Let the people inside keep an eye on him and don't let him have the chance to commit suicide. I don't care, no matter what method you use, let him live for a few months before he dies."
? said. He slowly walked down the steps and saw a carriage driving from a distance directly to the front of the hall.
Before the carriage stopped, Nene had already jumped out of it, and Xia Ya saw Nene. A sincere smile finally appeared on her face. Nene ran up a few steps and hugged Xia Ya gently. Xia Ya sighed: "When did you arrive?"
"Just arrived." Nene smiled bitterly: "We are following General Green's army. I have been wiping your butt all the way from the back. You played very well in the front, but the gestures behind you are a mess. And we really eat those places, but they are all It¡¯s a headache. Fortunately, Master Sophie is here.¡±
Xia Ya looked inside the carriage. Sophie slowly walked out and bowed her head to Xia Ya.
Xia Ya smiled faintly, looked at Nene, frowned and said: "Adeline"
"She doesn't want to come." Nene sighed: "You know, Garcia and her have always had a good relationship, and she knows she can't stop you, so"
After a pause, looking into Xia Ya's eyes, Nene added: "Mr. Merlin and Aunt Sofia are both at home. With them watching over there, Adeline will be fine, so"
"I just want to know when the knot in her heart will be untied." Xia Ya shook his head.
He couldn't resolve this conflict right away - thinking about it, he could only give it time.
Nene was silent for a while, then looked at Xia Ya: "Get in the car."
"boarding?"
"Yes, get in the car!" Nene said with a smile: "I am different from you. As soon as you arrived in the imperial capital, you rectified the military affairs and took over the city defense, and then you rushed to the palace to find Garcia's bad luck You are a man, and you have hidden things in your heart. You are so angry, but I am a woman, and I understand that there are people in the imperial capital waiting to see you, and they are already waiting to see you."
"" Xia Ya's face couldn't help but look a little embarrassed.
"Let's go, I've already gone to see her." Nene looked at Sophie and smiled: "Sir Sophie, please help, otherwise it will be really difficult to see her."
Xia Ya didn¡¯t want to delay any longer, so she simply got into the carriage with them.
The carriage drove out of the palace, but it was not walking towards the city, but towards??The direction out of town.
Seeing the city gate, Xia Ya couldn't help but said: "Eh? Where did you hide Delfini? Isn't it in the city?"
"She is already pregnant with your child, so she no longer wants to live in the palace's courtyard. A few days ago, she moved outside the city I know that you still have a big house that belongs to you in the imperial capital. Woolen cloth!"
Xia Ya¡¯s eyes lit up!
In the southern suburbs of the city, Tulip Courtyard!
The carriage drove all the way, with strong cavalry guards at the front and rear. It arrived at the southern outskirts of the city, close to the seaside. After going up the mountain, the Tulip Villa was right in front of them.
This house has been repaired and does not look so shabby.
When Xia Ya got off the carriage, she saw a figure standing at the door of the house!
That purple hair immediately jumped into Xia Ya¡¯s eyes!
"Via." Xia Ya's voice was low.
Then he walked over slowly, and Nene was about to follow, but Sophie gently pulled her back and shook her head.
"You're here." Via raised her eyes and glanced at Xia Ya.
Xia Ya didn¡¯t say anything, but suddenly she slapped him in the face!
Wea did not dodge, and let Xia Ya slap her in the face. She fell out from the slap, and then slowly got up.
"You should know why I hit you." Xia Ya said coldly.
"I know." Wea looked at Xia Ya: "I am responsible for his death. I delivered the news. That's why she rushed to the palace to defend herself, so"
"You are not the mastermind, you are just being used." Xia Ya shook his head and said: "But what I hate is that you are his daughter! Why are you involved in this!"
Wea smiled coldly: "I don't want to explain. I don't want to say this either. You have beaten me, and I am willing to take this beating from you, but there is no need for other words, Xia Ya! You know, I hate this kind of you the most. He looks so high and mighty!"
"I have no reason to remain arrogant in front of you." Xia Ya shook his head: "You once saved my life. It's just this slap in the face that I have to slap."
"Is the fight over?" Wea sneered: "I will leave after the fight I don't have to see you again in this life, Xia Leiming! Now that you are here, my work is done, and your woman will be taken care of by yourself. Got it!"
With that said, Via was about to leave, and Char frowned. Said: "You, wait a minute!"
Wea turned around and looked at Xia Ya coldly: "What?"
"Youjust left like that?" Xia Ya pondered: "If you don't have anywhere to go, why not"
"Shut up." Wea said bitterly: "Don't think that just because I received a slap from you, you think that I have surrendered to you! Xia Ya. You are not qualified to teach me a lesson, and you are not qualified to make me work for you. . Huh As for our engagement, it was originally done by the old man when he was in a daze, and I have never admitted it. Naturally, you don¡¯t have to think about it. "
"That's not what I meant." Xia Ya smiled bitterly.
"Then see you again!" Via thought for a moment and shook her head: "It's better to see you again forever! From now on, we will never see you again!"
After saying that, she dragged her clumsy legs. He limped slowly and left from under Xia Ya's eyes.
Xia Ya wanted to stay, but Sophie slowly walked up and stopped Xia Ya.
"Sir, just let her goVia, she has always been very miserable."
"What the hell did the father and daughter do" Xia Ya sighed.
"Via's life experience was very difficult In short, it was Adric who was sorry for her."
"oh?"
"Look at Via's appearance and tall figure. Are they different from ordinary Byzantine women?"
Xia Ya thought for a while, nodded and said: "It's not the same."
¡°Via¡¯s mother was from Odin, but she became a slave girl during the war and was sold to Byzantium. Then she met General Adric.¡±
Speaking of this, Sophie sighed slowly: "It's just an injustice. Adric fell in love with the slave girl at first sight. Unfortunately, because of his identity, he could never take in a slave girl, and he definitely couldn't find an Odin woman as his wife. Companion! Even a concubine is impossible!! So he finally sent the woman away, but he didn't know that the woman was pregnant when she was sent away. Unfortunately, the woman had a tragic life experience. In the war-torn times, she ate He suffered countless hardships and was sold into a slave So when Wea was born, he was a slave, and his appearance was disfigured by the slave owner with a brand when he was a child. A few years later, Adric was born by chance. Found her?Mother and daughter, it's a pity that Via's mother has died of illness. Although Wea found her father, the relationship has always been very bad. She hated General Adric for abandoning her mother. She had always believed that Adric wanted to be a hero, so she would never accept an Odin woman. This was hypocrisy. Later, it was Adric who finally came forward and made her become a disciple of my teacher Kavisi. The teacher tried to resolve the hatred in her heart, and finally used a division order to ask her to serve in Adric's army. Unfortunately, Via stayed in Adric's army for several years, but still could not ease the relationship between the two. In the end, Finally ran away"
Xia Ya looked at Sophie and suddenly smiled: "Okay, there's no need to bear it anymore. Since it's a sad past, there's no need to mention it again."
He looked at the mountain roadVia had disappeared without a trace.
"In this world, I am the only one who can still contact her." Sophie sighed softly.
Xia Ya suddenly felt something in her heart, and she looked at Sophie with a bit of malice: "Sophie, you are not young, are you? As the number one political official under my command, haven't you considered finding a suitable husband?"
Sophie suddenly panicked and raised her head to look at Xia Ya.
Xia Ya narrowed her eyes: "I just suddenly remembered Via once said to me that she would never marry me even if she died, as if I remember that she has always hated men. What you said about her Life experience. Then this is not surprising. With that kind of experience, I am afraid that she will be disappointed with all the men in the world I am just curious, does she seem to be very close to you only? "
Sophie suddenly panicked.
Xia Ya laughed. He patted Sophie on the shoulder: "Everyone has their own secrets. I won't investigate your secrets."
After a pause, he said in a low voice that only Sophie could hear: "Actually, I don't discriminate against that kind of thing. Of course, men and men are a little disgusting, and women and women I think It¡¯s still pretty beautiful.¡±
Sophie's face suddenly turned red.
Xia Ya laughed. He strode into the house.
Nene watched the two people whispering in secret, not knowing exactly what they said, but it made this normally calm chief of staff lose his temper.
Xia Ya strode into the house and just entered the door. Then he saw that delicate figure, nestling at the foot of the stairs, with a pair of beautiful eyes, staring at him blankly, crying silently.
Xia Ya immediately ran over. Then he gently took her into his arms, and placed a big hand on her swollen belly honestly and politely.
Delphini¡¯s face suddenly turned red and she whispered: "Youyou"
"What am I?" Xia Ya deliberately pretended not to know, and said slowly: "I am the father of the child. Isn't it natural to touch this child? Besides" paused. Xia Ya looked at Delfini, who had thin cheeks: "I'm sorry for you. Hey, I heard that women gain weight during pregnancy. But you are so thin, I guess you are too worried."
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out of fear: "Don't be afraid, now that I am here, I will naturally take care of big things. Just give birth to the child with peace of mind."
Behind him, Nenei coughed hard and unceremoniously. Xia Ya then turned around, looked at Nenei, and let go of Delfini.
Nenei looked at the queen, looking at this woman who was the first to give birth to a child for Xia Ya, and she didn't know how she felt in her heart.
I had seen the stunning beauty of this queen in the north, and looking at it now, I really felt pity for her.
Randomly Nene sighed. Miss Nene was not good at words after all. After hesitating for a long time, she said: "Well, you are indeed too thin. If you are so thin, it will not be good for the child. Well"
Queen Delfini is so smart. She was born into a wealthy family. She is much better at this kind of worldliness than Nene. Seeing that Nene is clumsy in speaking, she also knows that the other party seems to have good intentions and wants to express goodwill to her, so she simply lets go. Xia Ya came over, gently held Nene's hand, and whispered: "General Nene I haven't had time to congratulate you yet."
"II have nothing to congratulate." Nene glanced at Xia Ya and sighed: "Alwaysalways"
I just talked for a long time, but after all, I couldn't say a word.
Sophie looked at these three people and had already snickered and avoided them. As a subordinate, it is better not to see this kind of prostitute in the big boss's family.
Xia Ya stayed in a separate courtyard for one night, and the three of them chatted until midnight. Then, in order not to affect Delfini's health, they allowed the queen to rest.
Nene, on the other hand, took Xia Ya and talked for a while.
Xia Ya looked at Nene and suddenly remembered something: "You said Saint Laurent left something for me has it to do with this Tulip Villa? "
"Yes." Nene slapped her head: "If you don't remind me, I will really forget it! You said you don't care about the wealth left behind by the adults. I think they will stay in the Holy City anyway, so for the time being. No matter what, sooner or later I have time to pick it up and transport it out. But in this Tulip Courtyard, the adults told me that there is a secret about the Tulip family, which I want to pass on to the Tulip descendants."
"Tulip descendants?" Xia Ya thought for a while, the old drunkard has no descendants. Although he is only an adopted son, the identity of the descendant can only be himself.
He thought of the mechanism in the underground darkroom behind the courtyard.
"Are you talking aboutthe strange magic doors in the underground darkroom?"
Nene glanced at Xia Ya: "So you've seen it before?"
"I've seen it before, but that door is very weird, but it can't be opened." Xia Ya shook his head.
Nene pursed her lips and smiled: "My lord said that the secret of the Tulip family is inside that doorshe actually told me how to open the door."
"Oh?" Xia Ya's eyes lit up and she jumped up immediately, with an excited expression on her face: "Then what are you waiting for! Let's go and take a look!"
With that said, he picked up Nene and left. . . )
