Chapter 460 Monarch and Minister
Leek, a perennial herbaceous plant of the Liliaceae family, is very popular in China because of its powerful effects. However, it also has a strong and special smell, so it is rarely served on the dining table abroad, at least not in this small South American country.
Someone not only moved a domestic barbecue stall here, but also packed up all the ingredients.
only……
Lu Mingfei glanced at the oysters, kidneys, leeks on the barbecue stall...
Although these seem to be common barbecue players, at the moment, it will inevitably give people a misunderstanding. Is this implying that he needs to supplement?
I hate courtiers who have no sense of boundaries.JPG
Speaking of which, it seems that more than one or two people came this time.
Lu Mingfei looked around. There was an old man sitting by the window of the cafe nearby. The guy he kicked away earlier ran back limping. At the end of the street, a bearded man who looked like a traveler was whistling and looking at
Flying around but not looking this way.
Lu Mingfei's eyes drooped slightly. Are there only four left?
That guy Frisis is really willing to take action...
He sighed, and his previous thoughts of sorting out a few people gradually dissipated.
After so many years, the Dragon Clan, which was once the overlord of the world, has only a few crooked melons and dates left, which just proves the saying that there has never been an immortal dynasty in this world.
Lu Mingfei smiled and said: "Hui Liyi, I have some friends to receive. Could you please wait here for me?"
Eryi raised her head. Her current insight was still higher than that of Lu Mingfei at this time. She could also discover what Lu Mingfei could discover.
She looked at the owner of the barbecue stall, who quickly tried his best to put on a bright and attentive smile. Hui Liyi smiled lightly in return, and then nodded to Lu Mingfei.
When I used to play games with my brother at home, there would often be family leaders who would come to discuss important matters with my brother. At this time, Minamoto would touch Eri's head and tell her to come back to accompany her later, even though she would often walk out of the room.
We have to wait until the next time we get together, and Hui Liyi is already used to it.
Lu Mingfei glanced at Nip, who understood it and did not leave. Instead, he took the aluminum tray handed by the Queen with a smile and skillfully placed it on the barbecue grill.
Walking into a cafe not far away, the old man sitting by the window was none other than Ed Joe, whom he had met in Chicago not long ago.
"Your Majesty, long time no see." Edjo's wrinkled face relaxed.
"In fact, it has only been more than a month since we last separated." Lu Mingfei turned around, a little confused as to why the other two fools hadn't arrived yet.
Looking around, I saw a bearded man and a young man paying respect to the Queen at the barbecue stall.
Lu Mingfei said with a headache: "You have been in the human world for so long, have you learned these bad habits without learning any good habits?"
Ed Qiao said seriously: "Your Majesty, this is not a bad habit, but etiquette, indispensable etiquette. Back then, Aofina was always angry that we were too rude and bloody, and scolded me for being unseemly. If she were still here, she would
It would be great to see us bring human etiquette to the world of dragons."
Lu Mingfei was silent for a moment when he heard the old guy mention Aofina.
indeed so.
The Dragon Clan is an ethnic group that preys on the jungle. They believe in power and strength, go straight and do whatever they don't want. How can such a group advocate and popularize so-called "etiquette"? In this regard, it can be said that the human world is hypocritical, but it cannot be denied that they are better than the Dragon Clan.
More like "higher organisms".
As the high priest Aofina who is in charge of the daily life of the temple, she is most troubled by this matter.
The first-generation species at the top may still have some restraint, at least on the surface, they are more respectable, but the blood descendants below are vividly interpreting the law of the jungle, especially when there is a certain "prince" who is adding fuel to the fire.
"I haven't seen Aofina for a long time." Lu Mingfei slowly sat down opposite Aide Qiao and sighed.
Ed Qiao lowered his eyes slightly and said sadly: "Since the end of that battle, she and you seemed to have completely disappeared from this world."
Lu Mingfei looked toward the distance extending down the ramp outside the window.
After being separated from Edcho in Chicago, he received truly complete memories from his other self.
In the battle where their brothers fell from the throne, the biggest victims were always Frixis and Orfina.
The agreement between him and Frisis was absolutely secret from beginning to end.
That's why Ofina rushed forward so much and died in the hands of Frixis.
Not only was she furious at Frisis's betrayal of His Majesty, she was also filled with endless pain and inability to face it.
Lu Mingfei recalled the details of his past life.
He really couldn't read it before, but now he can easily detect some strange emotions in Aofina's eyes looking at Frisis.
Everyone in the temple knows that the first high priest, Frixis, has a secret crush on the third high priest, Orfina.
At that time, Frisius turned his secret love into a well-known love.
But no one knows that Aofina, who is indifferent to everyone, also has some kind of affection for Frisis.
But before this emotion could give birth to the seeds of love, it was extinguished in that war.
In that war, Ofina faced the choice between love and faith.
But what Ofina didn't know until her death was that Frixis had always struggled with the dilemma between faith and ethnicity.
"Your Majesty, what happened back then?" Edcho asked softly.
At the same time, Joseph and Abraham walked into the afternoon cafe one after another. They saluted respectfully to the man opposite Adejo, and sat down on the left and right sides of Adejo in turn at his signal.
They did not speak. Edjo's problem was also their problem. They waited quietly for His Majesty to reveal the final answer to the mystery for them.
"What step have you learned?" Lu Mingfei asked calmly.
"Your Majesty...Mars is dead."
Ad Qiao lowered his head slightly and said in a nostalgic and sad voice,
"Before he died, he asked someone to bring you a message——"
"I'm really sorry about what happened back then."
"You know, Mars was in charge of the guard back then. He was alerted to the anomalies in Frixis in advance, but under the misguidance of Frixisi, he took the important guards of the temple to the border, which led to the rebellion.
No one was guarding you. After that, although he didn’t say anything, he was still worried about it..."
Lu Mingfei listened silently to Adeqiao's narration.
In a daze, the sound of the tide hit his ears again, and he saw the man named Mars deep in his memory. He was so young and arrogant, and matched every characteristic of the Dragon Clan, except for the fiery and pious look in his eyes when he looked at the temple.
.
That battle... there was no winner from beginning to end.
The closer the people were to the temple, the more damage they would suffer. Just as they had expected back then, the dragon people who were further away from the temple seemed to have just slept and nothing had changed.
"Mars brought some pieces of information from Frisis before he died..." Edjo paused and said in a low voice, "Fresis said that all of this was your instruction, even if it was his betrayal.
, is also part of your order."
The lazy sunshine in the afternoon fell into the cafe, and every detail was reflected in the beam of light. Edjo's deep voice shook the dust in the air. The other two people maintained absolute silence. They did not even raise their heads to look at the man in front of them.
It seems that even just a glance is still considered transgression.
They had all heard the news brought back by Nissus, but without exception they thought it was just one-sided words from Frisius.
Even like Edcho, they couldn't find a reason for Frisis to lie, but they stubbornly believed that there must be a hidden secret.
This is not foolish loyalty, but some kind of deep-rooted trust.
They believe from the bottom of their hearts that the people in front of them will never abandon their ethnic group.
If Frisis had no reason to lie, then the man who single-handedly created the dragon clan had no reason to betray the clan he created.
Because as long as he is willing, there are too many dragons willing to die for him.
"What Frisis did back then was indeed under my instructions." Lu Mingfei paused, and finally did not add "we".
At this moment, he represents them. They are one and should never be separated at any time.
The cafe was unusually quiet. The expressions of the three of them were calm and without any disturbance. It seemed that the answer was within their expectations.
"Your Majesty, what happened to you?" Edjo asked in a low voice.
Their calmness surprised Lu Mingfei but also seemed to take it for granted. He took a deep look at the three of them.
"Still clinging to that truth, Adjou?"
What Lu Mingfei asked was the final truth that Edcho pointed out in Chicago, and it was also the last priceless thing for them.
"Your Majesty, that was Edcho's insistence and had nothing to do with us."
"That's right, Your Majesty, we are not interested in that kind of thing. The source of the dragon clan cannot bypass you anyway."
"We want to know more about what happened back then. Why did you just instruct Frisius to seize your throne?"
Lu Mingfei opened his eyes slightly, and looked at Adeqiao in a strange way, who was expressionless at the moment.
He originally asked casually, but this time he got an unexpected answer.
It seems...the comrades have not yet achieved internal unity!
"This will be a long story." Lu Mingfei said softly.
"In order to prevent Eri from waiting too long, please keep your Majesty short." Ed Qiao suddenly spoke righteously, and Lu Mingfei couldn't help but choke.
Abraham frowned in displeasure at the side, as if he was dissatisfied with Adejo's attitude. He opened his mouth to say something, but took it back at the last moment.
Lu Mingfei thought for a while, summarized what happened, refined the key words, and said bluntly:
"There is a problem with the elemental sea. I want to retire, so I found Frixis, the first heir in line, to take over."
The three of them were confused for a moment.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with the Elemental Sea? Is this related to your desire to retire?"
"Your Majesty, you are confused! It is difficult for Frisius to achieve great things if he has a bad ear!"
"Your Majesty, how can you retire?! When did Frisius become the first heir? He is embarrassed to take on such a heavy responsibility!"
"Your Majesty, are you too lonely in the temple, so you are thinking of retiring, and then..."
The three of them slowly moved their eyes to look at the girl with long dark red hair at the barbecue stall not far from the window, and suddenly realized.
Eriyi, who was under the tree over there, turned back and waved to them with a calm smile.
The three of them smiled brightly.
Under the coffee table, Lu Mingfei kicked him out of kindness.
"Your Majesty, you'd better tell me in detail and ignore this old guy Ed Joe." Joseph said in a low voice.
"What should I say in detail? I said that the sea of elements is about to collapse. Can you understand it or can you think of a solution?" Lu Mingfei glanced at him, "I know what you want to ask and what you care about.
Nothing complicated, just simple.”
"If the elemental sea collapses, the entire world will be destroyed. To solve this problem, even I must pay an unbearable price. In order to prevent accidents, I selected Frixis in advance to take my place."
He spread his hands and said, "It's that simple."
The three of them looked at each other for a few times, then shook their heads in unison.
Edjo smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, if that's just the case, why did you choose this method of succession? If you really chose Frisis, you could have appointed him as your successor in front of all the dragon clan, and
It doesn’t end like this!”
Abraham said in a deep voice: "In the news brought back by Nissus, Frisius called you a liar. You promised him but broke the promise in the end. Your Majesty, there is nothing to hide anymore.
Everything will come to an end, why are you still unwilling to tell us the real answer?"
Lu Mingfei slowly leaned back on the chair and didn't speak for a long time. Suddenly he stood up and said, "Come for a walk with me. Sitting here is boring."
Naturally, the three of them had no objections.
This is a small town by the sea. At the end of the downhill street and on the right side is the rippling blue sea. The afternoon sunlight is constantly moving over the small town.
They walked down the slope and could clearly see the port below and the clouds in the sky in the distance. The autumn sea breeze was very gentle.
Lu Mingfei walked in front, and the three of them scattered behind him like wings.
"Walk faster." Lu Mingfei suddenly said.
The three people quickly quickened their pace, but they were still half a step behind and did not exceed the limit.
This scene naturally fell into Lu Mingfei's eyes.
There were some broken leaves scattered on the roadside, which made a clear and crisp sound of cracking under their feet.
"What were the last words Mars left for me?"
Hearing the message from His Majesty who was walking in front, Edjo said without thinking: "It's 'I'm really sorry for what happened back then'."
"No, this is not the last thing he wants to say to me." Lu Mingfei said quietly, "The last thing he wants to say to me is that he regrets that he should put me on the throne."
The three people following Lu Mingfei looked horrified.
"This world has no secrets for me anymore."
"I heard that Smith went to the small town where I lived these years. Do you know, I still remember the conversation I had with Smith in those years. I asked Smith, are you afraid of me? This guy just thinks about himself, just like you are now
Just the same, always one step behind me, as if there is a barrier between us that is born and cannot be breached."
"But this is not what I want."
"Edjoe, I have never needed your care before and after riding."
