A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 289. Chapter 289

The white dove flapped its wings and flew north, traversed thousands of miles away, and finally flew to its destination.

Although summer is coming, the northern border of the plateau is still a bit cold.

The white dove is flying in the broad sky, and the small eyes of the bean are looking down at the earth.

In just a few years, there have been many changes in the northern land.

A wide avenue came from the south, leading straight to the fortress in the north.

Most places in the north are sparsely populated and quite desolate, but with the completion of this avenue, tens of thousands of people who had been released from slavery came here.

Because the land is sparsely populated, the fields are much cheaper than in the south, and the people in the north are bold, and their contempt for slaves is not as serious as in the south, so many people choose to buy fields here and settle down.

With people and spacious roads, caravans who didn’t like to come to the north in the past also followed.

As a result, the northern border has become more and more prosperous.

The biggest change is still at the border of the north. Over the past few years, with the support of King Garland’s large sums of money, one after another high walls and small fortresses have risen from the ground. They surround the border and bring The inland is surrounded like iron barrels.

In previous years, although there were two legions guarding the northern border, they could not protect the entire northern border.

The Geishians came to plunder food and supplies, plundered everywhere, and ran away after the looting. Even if the army rushed to rescue afterwards, the town or village had been destroyed, the food, cattle and sheep were looted, and many civilians had been killed or looted. Become a slave to the Geishians.

This is one of the reasons why the North is sparsely populated.

If it is not because of poverty and the inability to move, few people would live in a place that would be plundered by foreigners at any time.

But now, with the construction of high walls and fortresses, the area where the Geshus can freely invade is less and less, and the damage caused to the northern cities and towns is also less and less.

The people in the northern border felt that year after year they were more stable, and there was much less wanton looting by the Geshu people.

In this way, their lives have stabilized, and with the prosperity of the economy, they are living better day by day, life is full of hope, and there are many more smiles on their faces.

When the white dove just flew to the northern fortress, suddenly a black shadow rolled up a fierce wind towards it.

The breath of the bird of prey made it scream in panic.

However, the black eagle that rushed around only circled it, and when he glanced at it, it spread its wings and flew away.

The white dove that escaped from under the eagle’s claws hurriedly fluttered its wings and flew to its destination, the largest and tallest building in the northern fortress.

It wandered around, then fell into the hands of the man already standing on the open-air balcony, and made a cheerful cooing sound at that man.

Just after grunting, a sharp look came over. The black eagle it encountered just now was actually in the room, scared it to shrink into that person’s arms.

The big brown hand touched it, then removed the thin copper tube tied to its leg and put it in the bird cage on the side.

Although there was food and water in the bird cage, the Black Hawk stared at him not far away. The frightened little white pigeon curled up in a corner, not daring to move, looking pitiful.

A cold wind blew across the balcony, and dark hair flicked across the scars at the corners of the tall man’s eyes.

The fingers that had just unfolded the small piece of paper slammed hard, almost crumpled the branches between the fingers.

The man’s thin lips were pressed like a straight line.

Under the endless black hair, the flame-like golden red eyes brightened terribly.

……………………

An explosive news spread throughout Aaron Landis within a few days.

The palace of Aaron Landis will hold a grand celebration and banquet in the osechi a week later.

Flower osechi.

The last day of spring.

The flowers are about to fall, that is the most beautiful day before the spring flowers are about to wither.

According to legend, when the goddess of spring was about to leave the earth on this day, she met Afdomir, the goddess of love and beauty who happened to come to the earth on this day.

Afdomir is also the god of flowers. She is in charge of the blooming of flowers. She is fascinated by the beauty of the goddess of spring, making all the flowers bloom on this day for the goddess of spring.

The goddess of spring is also moved by the beauty of the flower god.

They traveled hand in hand on the land where hundreds of flowers were in full bloom, and had a beautiful day.

After this day, the goddess of spring leaves the earth.

Afdomir, the goddess of flowers, who watched the goddess of spring depart, was very sad because of this. So, just a day later, all the flowers on the earth withered.

Since then, on this day of each year, Afdomir will descend on the earth to meet the goddess of spring who is about to leave.

Hua Yu.

It means that the flowers bloom to the most splendid and beautiful moment when they are about to wither.

The folks of Aaron Landis hold lively celebrations every year today, decorating the city with blooming flowers.

This is the most anticipated celebration of young men and women.

At the festival of osechi, it is the best time to confide in your love to your loved one.

Although this festival is held every year in various cities and people, but for so many years, the palace has rarely held this celebration.

Because the royal palace’s osechi celebration is a ceremony to choose a concubine for Aaron Landis.

The last time the palace held this celebration was more than a hundred years ago.

Therefore, after so many years, the news that the royal palace is about to hold the osechi celebration immediately caused an uproar on the ground.

As a result, on the land of Aaron Landis, countless noble girls rushed from the sky to the north to the royal city.

Even the noble girls from other countries were moved by the wind and went to Aaron Landis one after another.

King Gallan.

This is a young king who has been on the throne at a young age with a talented, wise and decisive figure.

He not only defeated the invaders on the battlefield and saved Aaron Landis, but also managed the entire Aaron Landis prosperously in just five years on the throne.

Nowadays, Aaron Landis is strong and flourishing, and King Garlan is loved by the people in the name of wise man.

Such a young king with a literary and military strategy, of course, has long become the dream lover of countless women.

Whether it’s the desire to embrace the girl’s admiration, or the ambitious plan to become a princess under one person and more than ten thousand people, countless noble ladies have arrived.

Of course, not everyone can participate in the Royal Palace’s osechi celebration. As candidates for the princess, noble ladies must also have a not low status.

This is true. In just one week, nearly a hundred famous ladies came from all over and even from other countries.

For a time, not only a hundred flowers were in full bloom in the royal city, but also the swallows and swallows were in full bloom, and the charming girls embellished the city more fragrant and beautiful.

The maids and attendants in the palace are being harassed, and they are constantly being inquired about the women King Garland likes.

Numerous ladies seem to smile like flowers, and every move is dignified and elegant, but they all secretly jab and eagerly eagerly swear, vowing to bloom their most beautiful side in the festival of osechi and seize the heart of King Gallan. The position of Princess Aaron Landis.

Although the people in the royal city cannot participate in the flower osechi celebration in the royal palace, they still talk about it.

They happily guessed which beautiful girl could win King Garlan’s heart.

Because they care too much about their young concubine selection, the people in the royal city don’t care much about their folk celebrations. They just gossiping with all kinds of gossips from the palace.

In such a lively atmosphere, the osechi has arrived.

On this day, countless flowers dot the whole city, and every part of the city is full of flowers.

People’s cheers and laughter resounded throughout the city, in the streets, in the gardens, and in the markets. People holding flowers everywhere, regardless of age or sex.

Soon, night fell.

Tonight is a moonlight and starry night, and moonlight like water falls on the earth.

The half-hanging open-air garden in the palace was brightly lit at the moment, and the crowd was full of people.

In this exquisite sky courtyard, flowers and green trees are cleverly dotted among various buildings.

It is when the flowers are in full bloom, when this sky garden is the most beautiful, walking in it, like being in a sea of flowers.

The beautiful flowers bloom in the night, decorating the open-air courtyard under the moonlight like a garden of elves, which is so beautiful.

The beautiful girls walked lightly among the flower gardens.

In the bright lights, they spent a whole day carefully portraying their delicate and flawless looks. The golden ornaments hit their hair and slender wrists with a crisp sound, and the gorgeous long skirts that swayed like butterfly wings gleamed as they walked. Brilliance.

The delicate girls actually suppressed the blooming flowers around them.

This is true of the so-called a hundred flowers contending for beauty.

It is dizzying and dazzling.

Before King Gallan appeared in the flower banquet, all the charming girls gathered in groups, chatting quietly, and let out a soft laugh.

Among the crowd, a girl with fluffy linen curly hair glanced at the people around without paying attention, and quietly stepped aside, and left the lively flower garden along the stone steps next to it.

It seemed that he wanted to hide in a remote place.

She had just walked a few steps quietly, and on the other side, the baby-faced girl who came to the royal city from Walia in the southwest with her saw the appearance of her friend secretly leaving, and hurriedly chased after her.

“Léa, where are you going?”

Quickly catching up with her friend, the baby-faced girl asked suspiciously.

“Shhh.”

Lya hurriedly made a quiet gesture.

The baby-faced girl nodded obediently and lowered her voice.

“King Gallan is coming soon, where are you going?”

She said expectantly,

“It was hard for us to see your Majesty with our own eyes. I heard that he is very good-looking.”

“Not’us’, I know King Garlan is your dream girl, but I am not interested in him.”

Léa decisively draws a line with her friends.

As soon as she turned, her long wavy linen hair was flying in the dark night, and her long skirt floated along with it.

She raised her eyebrows and glanced sideways at her friend.

“Don’t worry, I was annoyed by my father’s rumors, and I couldn’t come to the royal city. I just came to have fun.”

“But everyone wants to marry King Garlan and become a princess, why don’t you want to?”

“Forget it, I’m not interested in the position of the princess.”

Leya walked forward quickly, while looking up at the bright moon in the night sky.

“Compared to being a princess, it is my yearning to find a true lover to stay together for life.”

“Well, is it the same as in the stories you often read in Léa?”

“Yes.”

The girl’s eyes shone in the dark night, her hands clasped her chest, her eyes full of hope for love.

“I believe that I must have a destined lover, and Afdomir will bring him to me.”

“Maybe in the near future, maybe tomorrow, maybe just tonight, he will appear in front of me.”

“This will be a fateful encounter—”

Having said that, Léa turned around and said to her friend with a smile.

“Therefore, I don’t want to be a victim of a political marriage, and I will never marry the King Gallan. Therefore, you can rest assured to fight for the heart of King Gallan. I will never fight you.”

“I don’t want to participate in this celebration, so I just left. If someone asks me, you can help me cover up and say that I am not feeling well and go to the side to rest.”

After explaining to her friend, she looked down at the side of the stone fence.

Well, it’s not very high, she can handle it, who often climbs trees and windows.

Thinking of taking a shortcut to avoid others, Léa simply pulled up the long skirt, climbed up the stone fence, and jumped from here to the bottom.

“Wait, wait, Léa, don’t jump, it’s dangerous.”

“It’s okay, I often jump the window at home.”

After speaking, she jumped down.

But the next second, she suddenly saw someone walking out of the shadow under the stairs.

She was taken aback, and there was no time to retract. The body had already jumped down, and the person was under her.

Oops!

I’m going to hit it!

Seeing that she was about to run into that person, Léa closed her eyes subconsciously.

At this moment, both hands stretched out to catch her firmly.

Liya, who was hugged horizontally, was a little confused.

She opened her eyes and looked at the person who was catching her.

Puff through.

At this moment, it seemed that I could hear a huge beating from my chest.

The girl’s pupils reflected the person holding her, and there seemed to be stars shining in her eyes.

Afdomir…

Is this your guide.

You brought him to my side.

Under this beautiful moonlight, under this boundless starry sky.

This is a fateful encounter.

Although it is only a short moment, at this moment when our eyes meet, we seem to have passed thousands of years…

…………

………………

When King Gallan appeared in the celebration, the noisy flower garden was silent for a moment.

Many of the noble ladies who saw him for the first time experienced a momentary loss of consciousness.

The young king came under the moonlight.

Long golden hair scattered in the night.

The soft firelight reflected on his face.

Moonlight is like water, pouring on the earth.

No need for any redundant description.

Everyone in the world says that the beauty of King Garlan’s appearance is unparalleled in the world.

This one sentence is worth a thousand words.

The banquet in the flower garden continued, but it was much quieter than before.

King Garlan sat in the upper seat with a calm expression, holding a glass of juice in his hand.

Many of the noble ladies who were eager to win the position of the princess before King Garlan came, watched him secretly at the banquet, but for some reason, they couldn’t afford the courage to approach him.

Therefore, they can only look at Garlan while trying to build their own mentality so that they can pluck up the courage to move forward.

The girls didn’t move, and Garlan also sat still.

In this way, in the imagination of the ministers, the scenario that King Gallan would be surrounded by many beautiful girls and fell into a tender country did not happen.

The scene fell into a stalemate for a time, making them very helpless.

But it is impossible for them to put aside their faces and imply that those noble ladies are close to King Gallan, so they can only be anxious on the sidelines.

Just when the officials were anxious, this stalemate state was finally broken.

The girl with long flaxen curly hair quickly stepped forward and walked towards King Gallan.

Her actions attracted the attention of everyone around.

The ministers all showed joy and gave them encouraging eyes.

The other ladies around them all showed unwillingness or nervousness when they saw that they were taken a step ahead by others.

Without paying attention to the gazes from all around, Léa, who hurried over after changing her dirty long skirt, had only Garlan in her eyes at this moment.

Her eyes were shining, and she walked towards Garlan with joy at a light pace.

“I……”

Just when she just spit out a word.

Suddenly a silver light flashed across the night sky, carrying a biting gust of wind.

There was a bang.

A sharp sword fell from the sky.

In full view, the sword body sank deeply into the ground.

The part that was exposed to the ground trembled because of the powerful force remaining on it, making buzzing noises.

That sword was inserted right in front of Léa.

Crack the stone ground.

Abruptly cut off Léa’s way to Garlan.

Suojia, who was drinking wine in silence, suddenly felt a little when he saw the sword.

coming!

He turned his head and saw that the black-haired man who had just stepped into the flower court and threw the sword was walking step by step.
