Section 365: Reward

Chapter 365 Reward

"For... why did you say this!" The little girl took a step back, with a frightened expression on her face. "He is my brother, my brother, and the only person in my world who is connected by blood. Don't say such terrible words."

"No matter how brilliant the throne is," said Ashu Rufate. "There can only be one person above."

"But he is my brother... I... I... the throne has never been a right, but a responsibility for me. Sometimes I would rather not be born in the imperial family... He was my brother, and it is more appropriate for him to inherit the throne..." Ashu Rufate looked at the little girl, which made her feel panic.

"If he dies, it's just his own stupidity that killed him." Ashu Rufate said in a deep voice. "It was he who chose this path himself, forcing you and him into this blind spot without any retreat. We could have sat down and negotiated, but he blocked this path himself. He wanted to use this attitude to make you submit... stupid, arrogant and selfish behavior. As long as he really regards you as a blood-related sister in his heart, he will not take such action!"

The two of them face to face, speechless for a while.

"Ash Rufate, you..." the little girl suddenly said softly. "Do you want to be king?"

"Me?" Ashu Rufate couldn't help but shivered. "Why do you ask that?"

"If you want to be king, then I..." Her voice stopped because Ash Rufate pressed a finger on her lips, directly preventing him from talking.

"You shouldn't say this!" said Ashu Rufate. "Whether it's a queen, a girl, or a sister, think about the glorious bloodline in you."

"It's... I'm Meng Lang." The little girl said softly. She let out a long breath.

No, nothing will be worse than the last time. She told herself in her heart, and then she slowly recovered from peace.

"I was in a mess just now," she said. "When I heard the news... I couldn't even find someone to discuss it."

"Where is Rotia?" Ashurufat asked.

"She is leaving," the little girl said with a little sadness. "Same as Jiana."

It took Ash Rufate a little time to remember the little girl's "ex-" tutor. In fact, he and Jana did not have much contact, and they could only be considered acquaintance with each other, and they could not be known. However, from the courses she assigned for the little girl, she might be a good tutor, but it was definitely not suitable for the king's education. At least it was not suitable for the little girl's situation. But later, Jana disappeared from Ash Rufate's vision - it was said that he went home to get married. Since then, he has never seen or heard of Jana again. Of course, Ash Rufate never spent any energy to investigate Jana.

"What does leaving mean?"

"She said she was leaving and had resigned from the position of temporary tutor to me." The little girl was a little depressed. After spending so long with Rotia, she really liked this woman quite a lot. In a sense, Rotia had the talent of a "traitor" because she was good at raping, rumoring and giving advice. "Going far away is to marry. But I believe she has nothing to do with this matter... because of this matter... she mentioned it to me a long time ago, before you defeated the Chaos Legion."

This explanation made Ashu Rufate unable to continue asking.

"She is still here, but I...I don't want to bother her anymore." The little girl said. She looked at Ashu Rufate again.

In fact, it was not the thing that really knocked her down - because even the little girl admitted in her heart that her brother was actually more suitable to be king than her (because she did not feel that she had established many extraordinary political achievements, so she should be the queen for granted) - but the process of this thing. Everything happened without her knowledge, and no one asked for her opinions. By the time she knew, things had reached that irresistible level.

If you have to compare it, this feeling is like the previous coup of Byron. In an instant, everyone around you becomes enemies or suddenly disappears.

If she could believe that she had not made any mistakes that time and that the cause of everything was because of Byron's own ambitions and desires, this time, she was even a little unable to convince herself.

Ailin, the prime minister whom she promoted and appointed, has stood in an opposition to her position with a group of ministers who were also promoted and appointed by her (maybe there are others, but at least the appointment letter was signed by her).

If this blow is not enough, then Scadra, the old man who has been with her for the past ten years, has always been wearing black clothes and a stern face, has now left her.

The letter said that at the entry ceremony held by Prince Por, the palace chief Scadra was with him - this was not the entry ceremony of a prince (even if he was the crown prince), but the treatment only the king deserved. Scadra had made an excuse to leave the little girl before, but now he is with Prince Por again, so his position is self-evident.

The little girl is still a little girl, and Scadra is still a Scadra, but the relationship they had spent more than ten years to establish - the trust and tacit understanding have collapsed. Even if they meet again, they will not be able to return to the past situation.

Fortunately, there is also Ashu Rufate. Fortunately, he would say in front of her, "Even if he is an enemy of everyone, I am on your side." Perhaps, even Ashu Rufate himself did not expect how much impact his words had on the little girl's heart.

"I..." The little girl actually wanted to ask Ashu Rufat what she should do. She wanted Ashu Rufat to help her make an idea, but she had some self-esteem that made her unable to speak out this request, so although she said it, she changed. "Is she a qualified queen?"

"It's not just qualified," said Asu Ruffat. "It's very excellent." He continued. "If you're not so outstanding, they won't do these things quietly behind your back. Their approach itself shows guilt... Just as I said just now, you are the stronger side. As long as you are willing and make up your mind, you will definitely win."

He stepped forward and put his hand on her head before the little girl could react. At this moment, he no longer regarded her as the queen, but as the desperate but still strong little girl in the wooden house.

"Actually everything depends on you. As long as you determine that you are a queen, as long as you can regard the throne as the best grave... If you have this determination, I would rather die than regret... I will fight for you forever."

The little girl was so obsessed with hearing this.

As Ashu Rufate walked out, he bumped into Rotia head-on.

As mentioned earlier, everyone else has been sent away by the little queen. Rotia came after Ashu Rufate came in. So she was the only one here at the door.

Ashu Rufate just greeted him casually and wanted to leave. However, before he could take a step, he heard the cold voice of Rotia behind him.

"Isn't it too much for you to do this?"

"What's too much?" Ashu Rufate stopped.

"Let you, a girl, face such... tragic facts."

"Some decisions can only be made by themselves," Ash Rufate replied. "Others can encourage her and support her, but they cannot help her make decisions."

"It sounds better than singing." Rotia sighed. "You don't understand this at all... how much blow it has caused to her. Our palace chief... that little girl treats him as an elder like her grandfather or father... He may have reasons for betrayal, but no reason will make me forgive him! Fortunately, you are, otherwise, our Queen may be mentally broken. Also, the same is true for that old lady... She brought me a letter, and I am now hesitating whether to hand it over to our little queen."

"What do you... know?"

"Scadra...he may hope that the rule of the Markremiz family can continue. After all, a queen may mean the transfer of rule. So he has two choices, one is to let a legal orthodox heir ascend the throne, and the other is to let someone like you who is capable but has no foundation and family background marry into the family... It is obvious that the former is the highest goal he pursues, and the latter is his choice that he had no choice. Although I think he does love our little queen very much, this love cannot change his political stance and cannot shake his determination to act."

"This kind of... should be considered stubborn."

"Ha, stubborn mind was his advantage. Didn't you follow this principle when choosing a minister? Find those conservative, stubborn minded, and loyal to the Markremiz family. This was originally a smart choice, but now it has become... a stupid thing. Alas, the so-called world is hard to predict, this is the case. According to me, you should fight back to the Hawk City, kill all the guys who committed the rebellion and the ungrateful prince, and then the country will be quiet."

Ashu Rufat smiled, but no answer.

"Well, you may not know, Prince Pole... No, Your Majesty," Rottiya deliberately emphasized the tone of the four words "His Majesty the King". "The envoy has been sent. Well, don't get me wrong. He is not here to cause trouble. He is not here to make trouble. He is here to reward you. He has praised you, Essin, Baranka, and Parri's record and promoted you. Of course, not only you, but other officers... the soldiers also have rewards. He fulfilled all the promises made by our little queen before. Especially Essin's promise, he has now been named Duke."
