Kingdom’s Bloodline

The latest website: The departure of the two vampire guests made many people feel relieved, and it also made Thales breathe a sigh of relief: at least the Kingdom Secret Division did not make plans on these strange races, otherwise vampires attack the battle feast, Kong Ming Palace Horror Massacre, this news makes people frown just by listening to the title.

But the problem is...

Thales looked at the guests from all over the world: The king aimed to end Jann's duke career and destroy the foundation of the Kevin Dill family, but the South Bank Territory is so big and the Emerald City is so complicated, so what if you screw up a banquet? Woolen cloth?

But instead of reassuring him, this thought made the prince even more uneasy.

That's right.

The voice in his heart told him: He must have other means.

The damage that can be caused is far beyond what this banquet can give.

I heard that His Highness Thales was young and precocious, with a handsome demeanor, and it is so true when I saw him today...

Our chamber of commerce has a good cooperation with colleagues in the central leadership. They supply materials and we process them. I don't know if your highness is interested...

I heard that His Highness is here to find a good match. I wonder how you get along with Miss Xilai?

After Zhan En, who was the host of the banquet, left, Thales, who was alone, quickly became the new focus of the guests. Those who chatted with him included envoys from foreign lands, local wealthy merchants, vassals and high-ranking officials of the Emerald City. bureaucracy……

Thales had to pray that Jann would return to the table quickly—at least the Patriarch of Kevin Dill could share most of the firepower, and the princes who wanted to get close also restrained themselves and did not dare to be too obvious.

No, what a joke.

The Duke of Xinghu shook his head when he thought of this: Didn't Xiaohuahua bring him enough bad things?

Among the people who came to visit Thales, there were even distinguished guests from the thirteen noble families who were conferred by the kingdom:

Earl Acheson Lasia and his eldest son set off from the swamp to visit Prince Thales on behalf of the Lasia family with the Four-winged Monitor Lizard as their family emblem. But both father and son are dull and clumsy. Except for greetings, most of the sentences in the reply do not exceed three words, which makes the conversation unsustainable and the scene embarrassing. So when an impassioned and enthusiastic banquet song sounded, drowning out the voice of the conversation, all three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Earl Noah Harvey of Yanbi Port in the East China Sea first congratulated the prince on winning the Xinghu Fort, and then mentioned the relationship between his family and Xinghu: Four centuries ago,

His ancestors were the little attendants of the Ascended King when he was still in Star Lake Castle, and later joined the royal guard, and supported the Church of the Sunset and the Trust of the Thorn Thorn in the religious war after the death of Elam I - the Controversy of Sacrifice. Prince Mond, it is said that Harvea shot an arrow in the sky a thousand steps away, and shot the false priest of the temple who claimed to be the incarnation of the setting sun in the enemy's formation, and won the famous saying This bow shoots the sun that shocked the stars. He was conferred the title of earl, and passed down the prestigious name of the bow that shoots the sun.

The Earl of Changqing, who came from the Blades, invited Thales to visit Changqing if he had time. Although the sea is far away, the earl's sister, the wife of the late third prince Bancroft, has been widowed She has been on the island for nearly 20 years, and if the younger relatives of her husband's family can visit her, she must be very happy.

In contrast, the rest of the Star Lake Guard gradually entered their roles. Even Miranda left the group of ladies and began to deal with a group of men vying for courteousness.

Glover came once and reported to him that everything was going well at the banquet. Rolf in the other corner also gestured to him nothing. Talking about two or three things about Prince Thales sacrificing himself for others to defend his family and the country, and the scariest thing Thales can think of is probably that everyone in Star Lake Castle is too tired to cope in such a carnival atmosphere, and they can't get up the next day ,

But unfortunately, he was the only one who didn't come to enjoy the banquet.

Depose the duke.

Destroy Jann.

Thinking of these two goals, Thales frowned.

The Kingdom's Secret Division has not made a move yet, or in other words, it has already made a move but he doesn't know, but no matter how the situation develops, Thales' goal will not change——

Ah, sister, isn't this His Highness whom we have been thinking of so much!

Yes, sister, it's the one who keeps us dreaming!

Familiar and terrifying voices sounded one after the other, Thales trembled subconsciously!

No.

A coquettish voice sounded from behind him on the left:

The parting last time was too hasty...

Another voice came from the right, very aggressive:

We meet again this time, at the banquet!

No, no no no—Thales rubbed his face in pain.

He had to admit that at this moment, he really missed Duke Jann who had left.

What the hell are you doing!

Come back soon!

Your Highness, why are you so late?

A girl has a beautiful appearance and a light body. She sits on the left side of Thales with a slender waist and smiles.

Leave us sisters alone for a while?

The other girl had cold makeup and sharp hairstyle. She appeared on the right side of him with a swoosh and her gaze was compelling.

Thales rubbed his face vigorously, showing an almighty hospitality smile:

Hi, Kasha, Kina!

He forced a smile:

You guys are so beautiful today! I can't even look away!

The well-dressed Kai'Sa and Qina were on the left and right, their eyes flashing together.

They climbed Thales' shoulders, leaned back, and whispered behind the prince:

He said we were beautiful?

Can you tell me something we don't know?

He said he couldn't look away?

Because he didn't even look at it!

That, Thales had to say, you know I can hear you talking, right?

But the twin sisters ignored him and continued to whisper behind him:

Hey, hypocrisy!

Oh, man...

Then what to do?

Glare at him!

After finishing speaking, the two girls moved in front of Thales in an instant, sat side by side, and looked at him with eyes that seemed resentful and helpless, but were actually fierce and persuasive.

Okay, Thales had to raise his hands in surrender, I mean, Kaisha, this dress is great, it shows your figure is beautiful, Qina, that, the hairstyle is impressive, and this... War makeup?

The two girls giggled, holding two hand fans respectively to cover the lower half of their faces——Kasha's fan had her profile portrait painted on it, and wrote Wisdom is on the left, and Kaisha happens to be on the left too, Qina The most famous is the long sword is to the right, but Qina is always not to the right.

In addition, the same line of small characters was written under the two fans:

【Brother is a fool, as stupid as grandma's house】

Thales frowned when he saw this.

Your Highness is perfunctory. Kai'Sa blinked her eyes on the fan.

And flustered, uneasy, and scared! Qina laughed muffled under the fan.

Actually, he needn't be afraid.

Because we didn't want to do anything to him.

But what if?

Hey, no, sister, there are too many people here...

Hehe, I know what you're thinking, you little rascal...

But just thinking about it makes me excited...

Thales came back to his senses with a strange expression on his face.

But the two girls hid behind the fan and chattered unscrupulously, as if the fan could isolate everything.

Ah, no, it will break the game...

Is he broken or are you broken?

Hey, disgusting!

You're the one who hates it!

Kaisha and Qina suddenly felt something in their hearts, they put down their fans together, and shot their sharp eyes straight ahead!

Dear Your Highness!

Where to go?

Thales, who was about to slip away on tiptoe, froze!

Kaisha approached with a smile:

You just have the heart to turn around like this?

Qina approached with a sneer:

You turn your head so willfully?

Just wearing the clothes we bought...

Leave us without looking back, and move on?

Hey! Disrespectful!

ungrateful!

Thales, who had a headache, quickly denied:

No, I'm just...wait a minute, what clothes, you say?

The prince's complexion changed drastically.

That's right! Kai'Sa covered her mouth and smiled.

He got it! Qina beamed with joy.

Do you like the combination we picked for you?

Seven sets!

Thales quickly looked down at his suit:

What? Wait, but this is not Kongmuto finding the Tailor Guild...

Kaisha clasped his wrist, blinked and said:

exactly!

Qina grabbed his shoulders and licked her lips:

How much is right!

But behind the Emerald City Tailors' Guild, whether it's the Weaving and Dyeing Craftsmen's Guild or the Clothing Chamber of Commerce...

But they all have shares in Karabyan, or cooperate vigorously with Vola Ling!

Karabyan's stake?

That said, we...

Thales figured something out, his face turned pale.

That's not the only thing, Kai'Sa said cheerfully, and your guards!

And your men!

Business is booming! Kai'Sa snapped her fingers.

Qina gave an evil smile: There is a lot of money coming in!

No, no, no, Thales was astonished, he tugged at his clothes in vain, This must be a misunderstanding—

There is no misunderstanding, Your Highness!

Fair Prices, Custom Made Clothes!

Using a lot of materials, children are not deceived!

Kaisha and Qina grabbed his arm, smiling like flowers, and said in unison:

You owe us a total of two hundred and twenty-four gold coins!

Two hundred and twenty four...

gold……

At that moment, Thales only felt that a basin of cold water poured down on him, making him cool from head to toe.

In the next second, Kai'Sa's eyes were shrewd, while Qina's eyes were full of greed:

When will your Highness settle the bill?

Thank you for your patronage!

How do you want to pay?

Of course you don't have to!

As long as...hehehe...

Ah, sister, you're thinking about bad things again—

Thales mechanically turned his head left and right to look around: Mallos, Glover, D.D, Conmuto, Paul...everyone was dressed in neat clothes and looked like a dog.

I just said, how can there be such a good thing!

No, but...

But isn't this a free sponsorship? Thales gritted his teeth.

Yeah, did I get it wrong? It's free? Kai'Sa looked at him in surprise.

Your Highness, you, do you want to wear the clothes we worked so hard to make? Qina wanted to cry.

You still want to say, this is a free gift from us?

Woo, it's so sad, but, but us, Karabyan is just a little count...

The land is small and the people are weak, and the power is weak...

The heir to the lord is still a fool...

Facing the royal family, what can we do?

I think everyone will think so...

The more Thales listened, the more headache he got:

No, I'm not grabbing your clothes...just trying on...

But Qina didn't listen to him at all: But sister, what was said just now: Your Highness robbed us of our clothes?

Kasa's eyes lit up: Huh? Snatch our clothes... Ah, it will cause misunderstanding!

That's right! Then he won't be able to argue, it's better to change it to 'forced pick'...

Ah, sister, we are geniuses, spread the word...

Thales only felt his eyes go dark.

No, it can't go on like this.

He crossed his arms and made a full swing!

No! As a matter of fact, I am the one who lowers my dignity and is willing to wear your products!

As soon as this remark came out, the expressions of the two sisters changed!

Thales took a breath, gritted his teeth and said:

After today, your chamber of commerce will be known as 'Duke Xinghu's dress tailor', and you will benefit!

Thales stared at the two menacingly.

Kai'Sa and Qina glanced at each other, their upper bodies did not move, they moved back two steps strangely, and resumed whispering that Thales could hear:

Oh, no, sister, he sees through!

Not good, sister, he has brains!

That's right!

Thales finally regained some confidence: So, if I say it, the prince hates this dress very much, and it's uncomfortable to wear...

Then your business... Thales sneered, Hey, hey, hey!

The twins suddenly changed color.

Ah, he's cunning!

He's still insidious!

So...you owe me money!

Thales exhaled and raised his eyebrows, and sent out his palm viciously: Two hundred and twenty-four gold coins—thank you for your patronage!

The next second, Kaisha and Qina were about to cry again, so pitiful.

But we are poor!

We have no money!

Thales had a stalk in his heart.

No, no, this is the usual trick of the devil twins. He suffered a loss once, and he will never be fooled...

Wola's country is small and the people are poor...

The lord's heir is still not smart enough...

Now I owe you money!

It's a big deal!

Kasha trembled and said:

And you still force us to pay back the money!

Qina covered her face, sad and wronged:

It's full of dominance and cannot be questioned!

Thales felt a headache again.

Um, it's actually not that serious, the prince rubbed his hands, Well, let's forget about this dress, I'll let them send it back tomorrow...

But in the next second, Kai'Sa's words changed:

So, Your Highness, we can't afford to...

Qina showed her eyes through her fingers:

Then I have to, I can only, use other repayment methods...

Um? wrong?

Thales' eyelids twitched.

Your Highness, can you pay your business debts with your feelings?

Ahem, abbreviation - love compensation?

Within a second, Kaisha and Qina both changed their faces, their eyes sparkled, and they looked at him expectantly.

Love repayment?

Or meat compensation?

It's really not possible, let's suffer a bit... Marriage compensation?

Thales looked back at them blankly.

No, no, this...

Hee hee, look at his face, I really want to take a bite...

Don't laugh, be serious! We have to be reserved!

At this moment, a sassy and powerful voice suddenly sounded, as if a hero descended from the sky:

Hey, Your Highness! Here you are!

At that moment, Kai'Sa and Qina's expressions changed drastically.

I saw two palms wearing black gloves appearing accurately from behind the two sisters, pressing down on their shoulders.

And you guys, okay, Miranda appeared above Kai'Sa and Qina with a smiling face, and squeezed a gap downwards to get in between the two sisters, Misses of Karabyan!

Thales was overwhelmed with surprise, and hurriedly stretched out his hand, as if King Fuxing saw Naikaru in the Battle of Cold Wind:

Ah! Mira!

His dear Mira!

On this side, Kai'Sa and Qina trembled, their faces full of horror!

The vicious bitch!

The Iron Maiden!

Reserve nanny!

Run!

In the next second, the two sisters turned around tacitly, and walked away!

But Miranda, who was dressed in full dress, clasped their shoulders irresistibly, and pulled the two trembling sisters back.

Then, Your Highness, two lovely little sisters, what are you talking about? Neverwinter Sword Cat of Broken Dragon Fortress lowered his waist and asked with a smile.

Woohoo!

ah!

ah!

Wow!

Kaisha and Qina bit their lips, looking like they were about to cry, trying to break free from Miranda's grip.

Ahem, that Mira...

Looking at the two trembling sisters, Thales felt his back was much stiffer at this moment:

They said we owed them two hundred and twenty-four ducats.

Miranda said Oh and looked down with great interest.

Kai'Sa and Qina's expressions changed.

No, no, Your Highness!

That's your propaganda for us!

We owe you!

It's our pleasure!

They apologized with a smile, and looked at Miranda in horror from time to time.

So they also said, Thales coughed in high spirits, to use other methods to repay, for example...

Miranda gave an hmm and her eyes became more and more interesting.

Where is it, Your Highness!

Our friendship is so good, it will be written off!

Karabiyan's family has a small background and can't stand up to turmoil...

The heir is still an idiot...

Yeah, although I don't have a big opinion on the last sentence, Mira smiled brightly, seeing that Thales was reliable and stable, which reassured him, but since the debt dispute is so complicated, we might as well come to Talk? You know, talk between girls?

While speaking, she embraced the two girls without any resistance, and they were intimate.

Your Highness, do you mind?

If Thales was granted an amnesty, he immediately stepped aside:

of course not.

Kai'Sa and Qina looked at Thales in disbelief:

That cruel highness!

Why are you willing to put us...

Push into the fire pit...

Push to the mountain of knives!

Thales' head ached again: How can this still be sung?

Is this sadomasochism?

Is this heartache?

But we will only love you more!

Until you put us in your arms—uh!

No no no!

No no no no no!

Fortunately, Miranda moved neatly, locked the mouths of the two without a doubt, and winked at Thales.

Thales didn't dare to stay any longer, he took aim at the gap and slipped out of the main banquet hall.

At that moment, Thales, who was running towards freedom, was inexplicably moved:

If he becomes king in the future, his first order will be to knight Miranda!

The northern border of Coldcastle is all hers!

Black sand collar too!

Marry as many men as you want!

Women can do it too!

Thales slipped all the way to the observation deck where there were fewer visitors, looked at the lights of thousands of houses below, and waited for the Emerald City to celebrate the Queen's Day after the preparations were completed, at least he took a breath.

You're running too fast, your steps should be smaller and more natural, otherwise the guests will still find out.

Thales turned around in surprise.

Xiao Hua—Jain?

Under the moonlight, the young owner of the Kevin Dier family, the Duke of South Bank, the lord of the Emerald City, and the organizer of the Battle for the Front Banquet, Jan Ke Wen Dier was leaning on the corner of the watchtower, watching with disdain. he.

Oh, you're here too—lazy?

Thales suddenly felt that he was not so lonely, at least there was someone else—huh?

Jen still had the same look of disdain in front of him, but at this moment, the young Duke was holding a hose in his hand, one end was connected to a precious bottle, and the other end was connected to a glass spout.

I saw Zhan En bit one end of the glass mouth, took a deep breath, and then began to swallow clouds.

Are you—smoking?

Hookah, Zhan En looked at the Emerald City under the observation deck, and shook the glass pipe with the hose in his hand, Have you never seen it?

Thales smelled a sweet smell of smoke, and hurriedly waved his hands back:

No, kid, cough cough, the prince can't smoke—

Don't be sentimental, this tobacco leaf is imported from Humble, and I have no intention of smoking it for you.

Thales froze, his face darkened.

If you push him out of here now... Mission accomplished?

Thinking viciously, Thales glanced at the railing and protective net of the observation deck, and then at the height below.

But you can't clean up the follow-up - a voice in your heart reminds him:

You come for the man, for what Jann Cavendeer stands for, not for him.

Thales could only regretfully give up this idea.

Jen suddenly said:

They'll fight.

ah?

Thales was taken aback:

What's going on?

Zhan En pointed to the two foreign men who were debating loudly in the main banquet hall:

Those two men belonged to two tribes on the grassland. One was the son of Tuda Khan and the other was the grandson of Boga Khan. They were introducing the Seri Prairie in the Eastern Land to others, but one said it was called Ki Siri, and the other said Dutheri.

Thales narrowed his eyes:

Any questions?

question?

Jen seems to have heard something funny:

The name of that grassland has a history: the ancient orcs called it Sediala, which means 'boundless grass', and the ancient elves called it Duvali, which means 'withered land'. After the empire conquered, it was collectively called For Surrey Grassland.

After the War of the End, the tribes who restored the ancient faith called it Kiseli, which means 'Prairie of Heavenly Father'. The tribes influenced by the Sun Temple called it Duseli - 'Prairie of God'.

The different titles represent your position.

Jen narrowed his eyes:

A position that is enough to fight to the death with aliens.

Thales frowned.

It's a pity, the prince said, They don't have the courage, or at least the intention, to feast on the blood clan.

It has nothing to do with that, Zhan En shook his head. The tribes on the grassland compete with each other, and they are destined to fight each other. The title is just an excuse that happens to cause differences.

As for the vampires, the Houllier clan is just one of the six branches of the Feast Leader. The struggle for power in the Night Council has never subsided. Do you think every vampire in the Feast Leader is a pacifist?

The Immortal Parliament. Thales corrected him.

Zhan En glanced at him, but didn't refute or admit it.

He just put his head down and took another drag on the hookah.

You said, there should be no doubts about the hostile relationship we have displayed during this period of time? Amidst the clouds and mist, the Duke of South Bank's tone was a little strange.

Thales raised his gaze.

From the wine merchant, to the gate control of the Kongming Palace, to the cost of food and clothing, rumors in the city, to your people spying on the Emerald City, my people make things difficult for you everywhere—we are like two mad dogs, but biting each other wherever possible.

I think so, the prince nodded, it's a real one.

In other words, falsehood with truth.

Too bad you believed it.

This night, I didn't relax for a moment, waiting for your father's sudden blow, Zhan En snorted lightly, and put down the hookah, Guess what I found?

Um, Thales observed, Nothing?

Exactly, Zhan En nodded, his eyes darkened, This banquet is very lively and normal.

The moon was in the middle of the sky, and a lot of time had passed, but the atmosphere of the banquet seemed to continue unabated.

Very lively.

It's normal.

And soon, it will be zero o'clock. Zhan En stared at an expensive and expensive clock in the distance, The battle for the first place will end here.

Thales was lost in thought.

But, the prince shrugged, but the Emerald Festival lasts for seven days, doesn't it?

Jen looked at him for a long time.

Yes, seven days.

The Duke nodded.

So, we are like two dogs in a slaughterhouse, fighting to divert attention to avoid threats, while trembling in uneasiness. Jann took another sip of the hookah and sneered, Waiting for the one on the head The butcher knife fell.

Seven days.

Thales stared at Zhan En, and suddenly understood something.

It's not without reason that the other party came here to smoke.

At that moment, Thales looked at the young man in front of him who was silently smoking a hookah on the watchtower, and thought for the first time that he might not just be the Duke of the South Bank with infinite glory.

At this moment, the two guests from the prairie in the banquet hall finally fought, causing chaos.
