Miss Shyvana, the elemental dragon, does not understand human love, so in her view, all actions of Jarvan IV are temptations - and in order to deal with the temptation and avoid the other party becoming suspicious, she accepted the other party's invitation.
Jarvan IV was very excited after receiving positive feedback.
He obviously didn't know what Shyvana was thinking. In his opinion, the fact that the other party accepted his invitation and had lunch with him was a very wonderful start, which meant that the relationship between the two parties had the possibility of further development.
Although Miss Shyvana seems a little colder, she is not hard-hearted after all!
In this way, in an extremely delicate atmosphere, Jarvan IV and Shyvana had lunch together in the Castle of Dawn. After the meal, Jarvan IV personally guided them to visit this masterpiece of Demacian architectural art.
work.
With the attitude of "pursuing victory" and being able to be alone together, Jarvan IV was very active today. He excitedly shared his experiences and thoughts with Shyvana, hoping to have a spiritual connection with her.
resonance.
It's a pity that in Shyvana's view, His Majesty King Jarvan IV is just "a beautiful collection of Demacia's old aristocrats". In Kalya's words, he is actually good, but the order he represents should be eliminated.
.
In this situation, Shyvana unconsciously showed some subtle compassion.
Such compassion was an emotion that Jarvan IV had never seen before - Jarvan IV was both curious and unfamiliar with such emotions.
And in a sense, this lack of understanding is even more fascinating.
Finally, when the two of them walked through most of Dawn Castle, when Jarvan IV invited Shyvana to dinner again, Shyvana, who had found the opportunity, finally refused him.
This sudden rejection caught Jarvan IV off guard for a moment, but Shyvana's reason was very clear. She "gave some insight into the architecture of Dawn Castle and planned to go back and think about it", so that Jarvan IV wanted to persuade him to stay.
There's no good reason.
Seeing Shyvana turning around to leave, Jarvan IV became a little anxious - he had realized that once Shyvana left this time, he would not know what year or month it would be before he wanted to see her again.
Seeing that the guards were all ten steps away, Jarvan IV gritted his teeth and chose the most direct way to express his emotions.
"Miss Shyvana." He said word by word, using the common language he was not proficient in, "I like you."
Shyvana finally opened her eyes wide.
She never expected that Jarvan IV would actually say these words, and it seemed that this was specially prepared...
Would the king of Demacia still express his love in this way?
A smile bloomed on Shyvana's face, but just when Jarvan IV thought he was about to gain love, Shyvana shook her head firmly.
"Thank you very much for your majesty's wrong love." She looked at Jarvan IV, her eyes unwavering, "But we... are not the same kind of people."
After saying that, without any hesitation, she strode out of the garden.
Looking at Shyvana's tall back, Jarvan IV's mind went blank for a moment.
Jarvan IV has never experienced such a big setback since he became king - he has no idea why Shyvana would take such a decisive step. Is this really just wishful thinking on his part?
Jarvan IV frowned, leaned back slightly, and leaned against the wall, recalling his first meeting with Shyvana.
It seems that at that time, she was more lively and happy than now?
It seems that every time I communicate with her this time, she is a little bit subtle?
And the reason for all this...maybe it is my identity as the king of Demacia, right?
Shaking his head slightly, a hint of bitterness finally escaped from the corner of Jarvan IV's mouth.
Is this considered a sudden refusal, saying that you have fallen out of love?
At this moment, Jarvan IV suddenly felt envious of Lan Fu - she had her own lover, and even though she and her lover came from different families and even had dissatisfaction with each other, they still had a close heart.
But his first love failed and died without a cure...
What a shame, Miss Shyvana.
……………………
The dejected Jarvan IV did not know that the couple he secretly envied were not living well now.
The script was torn.
Although LeBlanc also caused a lot of trouble for Forsbarrow, Lux dealt with it very skillfully and easily defended it.
In this case, LeBlanc and Vladimir needed a new, more reliable script.
"Mortal feelings are destined to be unreliable." Vladimir shook his head. Although there was a look of pity on his face, the smile on the corner of his mouth revealed his mood, "You may not be ashamed of a chicken, so don't take it to heart.
.”
"The climbers are really extraordinary." LeBlanc didn't seem to care about Vladimir's eccentricity at all, but judging from the tone of her gritted teeth, I'm afraid she was unwilling to be forced to tear up the script this time, "But at least I
Having completely gained his trust, Barrett's attention is focused on Shurima, and we still have a chance."
"If you want to provoke, there will naturally be opportunities." Vladimir nodded, and then asked curiously, "The little king really wants to do business with the Shurima people?"
"Judging from this posture, it should be impossible to fake it." LeBlanc nodded, "You and I both know how much it costs to maintain a huge army. According to the accounts I have access to, I am afraid that the royal family
The foundation of the country is also being hollowed out bit by bit.”
"It's really interesting." Hearing what LeBlanc said, Vladimir seemed to have remembered something, "Noxus is finished, but the little king made Demacia the new Noxus for his own power.
!”
"He does have some insight." LeBlanc snorted, "He is not like those stupid pigs who dare to let the army be self-sufficient."
"In other words, Tarik and Barrett will go to Shurima in the future?" Vladimir touched his chin, "Our little king's men will be a little short of reliable manpower.
ah?"
"A little bit." LeBlanc nodded, "He is concentrating on power, and he doesn't dare to give too much power to those big lords... If it weren't for his confidence in his influence in the army, I'm afraid Mian Mian
The stupid son of the Wei family can only be a bodyguard."
"That is to say, I should be able to take this opportunity to express myself?" Vladimir smiled, "Zwei Gotin, from the Gotin family, for the sake of his loyalty to Shurima, he did not hesitate to break with the family.
, with this kind of background, the little king should be able to use it with confidence, right?"
"Are you planning to stage a breakup?" LeBlanc narrowed her eyes, "Cut off your past completely?"
"For loyalty and love." Vladimir spread his hands and showed a familiar and greasy smile, "There's nothing difficult to understand, right?"
"That's just right." LeBlanc nodded, "Anyway, you have to meet the little guy from the Davill family. If you make good arrangements, I should be able to send you to the little king."
The "little guy of the Davill family" in LeBlanc's words refers to LeBlanc's father, Earl Davill. To her, this Earl is indeed a little guy.
"No problem." Vladimir nodded, "Ah, young talent, I haven't performed this kind of role for a long time."
"So put away your damn grease."
"Don't worry, no matter how bad the situation is, it won't be worse than if you didn't win the little king."
"..."
"..."
Soon, a piece of gossip spread throughout the streets and alleys of Demacia's capital city.
Zwei Gotin, the leader of the younger generation of the Gotin family, has actually been privately engaged to Miss Lanf Darvill for a long time. At the beginning, Miss Lanf's engagement was just a cover for His Majesty's sympathy for the couple. Now His Majesty has the final say.
Witness their marriage.
But the Godin family does not know what is good and what is good, and does not allow him to marry the daughter of the Darvill family, let alone marry a woman who has been engaged to someone before.
In the end, Zwei, who finally got accepted by Count Darville, completely fell out with his family, and was eventually deprived of his surname of Godin!
Boy, this is so exciting!
Since the last time Miss Fiona Laurent regretted her marriage and triggered that duel, how many years has it been since Xiongdu has seen such great fun?
In the streets and alleys, everyone's eyes were attracted by this wonderful gossip.
It was under this circumstance that Lanfu introduced her fiancé, who had become a commoner, to Jarvan IV.
Zwei’s identity is very interesting.
He was a son of a nobleman, but not only did he not have a title, he was also deprived of his surname. In theory, he was already a commoner.
However, most people could not really regard him as a commoner. This status just gave Jarvan IV an opportunity to promote and reuse him.
Since Zwei is patriotic, loyal and upright, let him work in the garrison!
As mentioned earlier, as the maintainers of order, the status of the garrison in Xiongdu is somewhat subtle. The place is full of nobles, and they always have worries when they want to take care of something. Over time, most people become like
Feifu has become an old man.
In this environment, if Zwei, who has lost his noble status, can still maintain his impartiality, then Jarvan IV will be happy to reuse him. When employing people, seeing that the Shurima trade is about to begin, he can use it at hand.
People are really getting tighter and tighter.
Zwei, who joined the garrison, did not betray Jarvan IV's trust at all.
At the city gate, the grand square, outside the Hall of Valor, outside the Lightbringer Temple and other places, he set up special wooden shelves with big black sticks placed on them.
At the beginning, the people of Xiongdu didn't know what this thing was for, but soon, as a foreign nobleman made an unscrupulous drift in a carriage, almost everyone in Xiongdu temporarily reviewed a Demacia law.
:
Riding a horse in the city will be punished by ten lashes or a cane.
This law to maintain urban order has been around for a long time, but in fact it has almost never been used.
No serious aristocrat would ride a horse in the city, it would be a shame; civilians would not dare, nor would they have the opportunity to ride a horse and drive a car in the city.
But now, Zwei, with the intention of establishing his power, carried out the law directly in front of all the onlookers, and gave this nobleman who did not know the heights and heights ten strong blows with the prepared stick.
In the midst of the noble's wailing, all the people onlookers in the capital began to cheer loudly. Overnight, the name of the selfless Zwei spread throughout the capital of Demacia, and even Jarvan IV heard about it.
this matter.
This kind of behavior that was contrary to the dignity of the nobles almost completely drew a clear line between Zwei and the nobles.
As a result, Zwei, who was born in the restless Godin family, finally completely switched sides and became a loyal royalist.
……………………
Although this series of events made the melon-eating people in Xiongdu feel full, for Lux who was in Forsbarrow, the things in Xiongdu were still too far away.
Comparatively speaking, she was more concerned about Jarvan IV's attitude towards Forsbarrow and the Northern Territory.
When Shyvana returned, she asked in detail about what happened in Xiongdu.
However, regarding the delicate situation of confession, Shyvana only vaguely mentioned it to Kalya, but did not tell Lacus directly, so Lacus was still a little suspicious at first.
Fortunately, it didn't take long before news came from Sona - her adoptive father Barrett would personally leave for Shurima and ask her what gifts she wanted.
After receiving this news, combined with the information passed by the bird group before, Lux finally figured out the purpose of Jarvan IV. He wanted to do business with the Shurima people and start Shurima trade!
Lux was shocked when she came to this conclusion.
"What did he think?" He almost couldn't believe his own reasoning. Lux sat on the chair blankly, her eyes filled with disbelief. "Going to Shurima to do business... What kind of business are you doing?"
"Food." Kalya quickly came to the conclusion, "The previous tax increase should be an unnecessary disaster."
"Selling Demacia's grain to Shurima is really a great idea..." Lux couldn't help but shake her head, "Even with large-scale livestock, the transportation loss of the Freljord trade is as high as 70% or more.
And if you want to transport food to the depths of the desert, I simply can’t imagine how much it will cost.”
Despite the fact that when crossing the Dashai Desert, Lux and Ino looked like they were just having a hard time, but don’t forget, that was based on Ino’s ability to make ice, so the two of them and a Scarash didn’t need to think about drinking water at all.
Under the premise of the problem.
Demacia has no auxiliary mages!
"If we form a Scarash caravan, the losses will be within the bearable range." Kalya made a silent calculation in his mind, "But the problem is, I don't think they can smoothly travel through the territories of various forces.
