Chapter nine

Emperor Riva was so excited that he took Princess Berni's hand and led Sbia's "special envoy" around half of the royal garden in one go.

He walked with steady and strong steps, and when he talked about past events, he described the scenes vividly. No matter how you looked at him, no one could tell that he was an old man in his sixties.

He didn't mention the eavesdropper, and Cohen certainly wouldn't mention it rashly, but judging from Emperor Riva's handling of it before and after, he was already aware of such a thing.

When he asked Cohen to take care of those "bugs", it was not necessarily a temporary move, because the several warriors who appeared next to him were all masters, and it would not be a problem to find that someone was eavesdropping... This emperor seemed to be

Hide something.

"In every sky, there are soaring eagles. This is true." Arriving on the lake cruise ship, Emperor Riva made a gesture for Cohen to sit down. "Before, I only heard people say that His Majesty Cohen is like this."

, but I have always regretted that I have never seen it. Seeing the performance of the special envoy today, I can guess a bit of His Majesty Cohen's behavior... It is really interesting!"

"Look at what you said, father, my daughter has told her father so many things about Brother Cohen before." Princess Berni said coquettishly: "Don't you believe what your daughter said?"

"Who told you to recognize His Majesty Cohen as your brother? My little sister doesn't need any reason to say good things for her brother. Of course I have to discount your words in my heart." Emperor Riva patted his daughter's hand and said with a smile: "Yes.

There is the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Sbia who came earlier. He behaves very well and does not look like His Majesty Cohen at all!"

"Not every official of the Sibia Empire can have the character of Brother Cohen! Father is bullying me." Princess Berni pursed her lips, turned to the masked warriors who followed and said: "

sail."

"The envoy has only seen an emperor with such extraordinary magnanimity as your majesty." Cohen smiled and sent back a compliment, "Even when it comes to talking, laughing, fighting, and making decisions on the spot, your majesty is no less than our majesty!"

"The special envoy is too polite. His Majesty Cohen is a graceful young monarch, and I am just a late man." Emperor Riva shook his head slightly and brought the topic to the point, "A strange gift like a divine item.

, I can’t come up with it even if I try hard! I wonder what kind of intention His Majesty Cohen wants to express in the special envoy’s speculation?”

"Actually, the intention of His Majesty the Emperor of our country is very obvious!" Cohen looked at the ripples spreading on the water, "I am sending this piece of feathers of the Princess of the Gods just to prove to Your Majesty that the current Sbia Empire and the Light Gods are

The relationship between us is extraordinary. Many of the things our Majesty does, even if they seem strange to others, are supported and understood by the Light God Clan."

"I know something about His Majesty Cohen being favored by the Light God Clan." Emperor Riva took the wine glass from Princess Berni, "Listening to what the special envoy said, His Majesty Cohen must be planning to do something strange again? How come your country's

The Foreign Secretary said nothing?"

"The Foreign Secretary is here to do business on behalf of the empire, and I am here to do private business on behalf of His Majesty Cohen. It is normal for him not to know." Cohen also took the wine glass, "As for this strange thing, even me

The envoy also has a little difficulty speaking."

"What's so hard about proposing?" Emperor Riva smiled, "Is it possible that His Majesty Cohen Keda wants to marry my daughter?"

"Of course not. Not to mention that Her Majesty Keda's marriage is already very happy, but from Princess Berni's point of view, Her Majesty Keda would not do this." Cohen felt very awkward when he had to say his name as soon as he opened his mouth.

"His Majesty Keda knows that Princess Berni currently does not have a man she likes. Although she hates people who come to propose marriage, she has to marry. At the same time, she also knows that Your Majesty the Emperor must marry Princess Berni... so he ordered the envoy to come and solve this problem.

problem."

"Be more specific. Old people are not flexible." Emperor Riva took a sip of wine.

"I...Viscount of Silver Moon Lake...the Special Proposal Envoy of the Sibia Empire, I am here to propose to Princess Berni on behalf of a certain royal member of our country." Cohen said seriously, "I hope to get His Majesty the Emperor's approval."

"A certain member of the royal family?" Emperor Riva was stunned again, "Which one is it?"

"Well..." Cohen shrugged, with a very embarrassed look on his face, "I don't know exactly who it is... His Majesty Cohen Keda didn't elaborate."

"You are teasing me!" Upon hearing Cohen's answer, the angry Emperor Riva jumped up. He slowly approached Cohen, with an uncertain look in his eyes, "I asked you to bring items from the God of Light as gifts.

It’s just a threat!”

"Your Majesty guessed wrong, that gift is not a threat." Cohen raised his head slightly, "This is just His Majesty Cohen Keda showing his determination to Your Majesty! The suitors from other six countries, no matter what they think, no matter what they are doing

Whoever proposes marriage is destined to return empty-handed!"

With a "boom" sound, the wine bottle in Princess Berni's hand, who was standing next to her, fell onto the ship's deck.

Her Royal Highness the Princess had been thinking about what good method Cohen would use to get herself out of the sea of ​​misery. It was only then that she came to her senses. It turned out that Cohen had no safe way to deal with her own affairs... But for himself, he actually

He has to confront the proposal envoys from the Six Nations and forcefully force the Six Nations to give up the proposal! Or, he also needs to conflict with his own father.

With two lines of tears streaming down her face, Princess Berni knelt down, picked up the wine bottle, confessed to the two of them and left. Although she tried her best to hide the emotions that were out of her control, the two people present were both extremely smart people.

, the series of changes in Princess Berni's heart could not escape their eyes at all.

The departure of his daughter made Emperor Riva think of something. The angry look on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a cautious look. He turned to Cohen and said: "Special envoy, tell me honestly, does my little daughter have a sweetheart?"

"Yes." Cohen nodded.

"Do they both... really love each other?"

"Yes." Cohen nodded again.

"The other person...isn't a member of the royal family yet?" Emperor Riva's voice lowered, "Tell me about his situation."

"His Majesty Cohen informed the envoy that this young royal member is now in a very complex environment and is shouldering an extremely difficult mission. The success or failure is closely related to the future destiny of the Sbia Empire. Therefore.

His Majesty Cohen cannot reveal all information about him, let alone order him to come and propose marriage in person."

Cohen said sternly: "But His Majesty Cohen ordered the envoy to tell His Majesty that His Majesty, in the name of the Sibia Royal Family, assures you that this royal member whose name cannot be revealed is a great person. Looking at the world, there is no one else except this young man."

No one is worthy of Princess Berni!"

"Did His Majesty Cohen say that?" Emperor Riva showed a strange smile, "In order to propose to my daughter on behalf of a person whose name cannot be revealed, His Majesty Cohen actually guaranteed it in the name of the Royal Family of the Sbia Empire?"

"Yes, in the name of the entire royal family." Cohen's chest puffed up, "Although he didn't say anything, Prince Visu Keda, Prince Leke Keda, Prince Shifta Keda, Princess Qinlun Keda,

Queen Mother Katherine Hagrid and the four imperial concubines have all presented carefully prepared gifts, and all members of the royal family have proven this to His Majesty the Emperor with their actions. Please, Your Majesty, think twice."

Emperor Riva stood leaning on the railing, arms folded in front of his chest, his eyes lingering in the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

At this moment, Princess Berni, who was hiding in the cabin, had already burst into tears. Although her father was confused by Cohen's words, Berni knew in her heart which "royal family" Cohen was talking about.

member", or rather, a "former member of the royal family".

Thinking of this person, Princess Berni felt bitter and astringent in her heart. How could she control her tears?

"Although this matter sounds bizarre and difficult to understand, His Majesty Cohen showed 120,000 sincerity. His Majesty Al-Qaeda said, we don't want anything, we don't interfere in anything, what we have done

Everything is just to fulfill the love between these two people." Cohen slowed down his tone, "In this continent, with all the disputes and everything in the world, a pure relationship is even more precious. Maybe in this world, there is only one like this.

Yes...Your Majesty, please give your approval!"

Emperor Riva turned around again and looked at the special envoy in front of him. A strange but familiar feeling suddenly emerged. Although his face was calm, he was suspicious of the identity of this "special envoy" and his thoughts were spinning.

Then, the sincere face of the proposal envoy gradually overlapped with the image of Cohen Keda.

In an instant, the first thought that appeared in the old emperor's mind was... kill this person, and the Pauliva Empire will be safe for decades! Even if he kills him wrongly, he will also remove a major beam of the Sibia Empire!

Emperor Riva lowered his head and thought again. Regardless of whether this person was Cohen Keda or not, he was not sure that he could kill him on the spot. Even if the Guards were called in to kill this person, the Sibia Empire would definitely use all its troops to fight against him.

Come to take revenge. Faced with that invincible team, what can the Liva Empire do to resist? Not to mention that the country is not going well in Liva. Other empires have been eyeing it. If it is not possible, the coalition forces will suppress the situation, and the Liva Empire will not be able to get it.

Any good will end up falling apart...

Thinking again of his few sons and daughters who had difficulty taking on important roles, the old emperor sighed deeply and was speechless for a long time.

"Bernie has been smart and sensible since she was a child, and she knows how to be considerate of others. She is my favorite child. But since she became an adult, it is difficult for me to see her smile again." With a wry smile, the old emperor said to Cohen: "

As Berni's father, why don't I want her to have a worry-free life and spend every day happily? But unfortunately, my hands and feet are tied by this empire: I have more than enough ambition but not enough power."

Cohen could tell from the old emperor's eyes that his thoughts had changed, so he didn't interrupt at the moment and let him speak.

"The special envoy knew my little daughter before, right?" Seeing Cohen nod, the old emperor walked back to his seat, "The one who had a dispute with the special envoy today was her eldest sister, the feisty Princess Riva. The three princesses are married.

I usually don’t care much about my sister, but this time I showed unusual enthusiasm for Berni’s marriage, but I naively thought that I didn’t know anything.”

"It's not appropriate for an envoy to interrupt the state affairs of Riva," Cohen said perfunctorily.

"Don't you feel comfortable speaking up? Even an outsider like you can tell." The old emperor chuckled, "The Guangming God Clan treats me well! They have allowed me to be the emperor for nearly thirty years, and they have given me such a well-behaved person.

A daughter."

"That is your Majesty's blessing." Cohen hated the mention of the Gods the most, but at this time he couldn't get angry. "As long as we get His Majesty the Emperor's approval, Princess Berni's happiness is guaranteed. As for other empires, please let me

Let’s solve it.”

"His Majesty Cohen gave me a good gift! Although he is a brother who was found by Berni himself, he is willing to pay such a price for Berni." The old emperor suddenly raised his head and laughed, "Listen to the special envoy, even if it is

If you want to fight against other empires, will your Majesty Cohen not change your original intention?"

"As long as Your Majesty understands His Majesty's difficulties, an envoy will take care of everything." Cohen nodded slowly, a sense of arrogance revealed unconsciously, "His Majesty Cohen often said, what is the purpose of the army? Isn't it just for protection?

Is it something valuable? In this matter, Princess Berni’s feelings are the most valuable thing to protect.”

"At this point, there is no need to say any more." Emperor Riva stared at Cohen and said calmly: "Since you are the special envoy to propose, show your skills. I don't care who you are or how you are.

Yes, but don’t expect me to help you.”

"Of course." Cohen bowed and said, "Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor!"

"I am fulfilling my daughter's wish." The old emperor turned his head and said, "Bernie, come out when you've cried enough!"

Princess Berni, with red and swollen eyes, walked out of the cabin, and was already crying when she reached Emperor Riva. The old emperor hugged his daughter and comforted her a few words softly. His eyes were full of love, and the majesty of the king had long been restrained.

Cohen, who was watching on the sidelines, also sighed. His impression of the old emperor was a little better, which offset the deduction for the murderous look just now.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, the ship has docked. Do you want to continue?" A masked warrior stepped forward and asked.

"I still have things to deal with, so I won't accompany the special envoy. Let Berni accompany you for a while!" Emperor Riva stood up, "Although Kinshasa is not as populous as the Holy Capital of your country, its prosperity is not as high as that of the Holy Capital.

It's not that good, especially at night. If the envoy is interested, how about I arrange for someone to accompany you for a walk?"

"I dare not trouble His Majesty the Emperor." Cohen replied with a smile, "The places the envoy likes to go are obvious. They are the kind of places that can be found with both eyes closed."

"Don't accompany me." The old emperor was relieved, "You guys can talk!"

Leaving two shadow warriors behind, Emperor Riva went ashore and left, and the cruise ship gradually sailed to the center of the lake. Princess Berni stopped her tears, sat down opposite Cohen, and stared at Cohen with a very strange look, which made Cohen's body tremble.

I feel uncomfortable up and down.

"Her Highness the Princess is so beautiful today." Seeing Princess Berni's smile, Cohen rushed to speak, "It is really rare to see a lady as beautiful as Her Highness the Princess! The little envoy is so lucky..."

"You two, get off the boat!" Princess Berni turned to the warriors on the boat and said, "Right away!"

"Back to Princess, if we leave, no one will control the cruise ship." A samurai replied.

"Can I, the princess, not know how to row a boat when I grow up to this age?" Princess Berni pointed at Cohen, "I don't know how to row, but this one can... get down here!"

Seeing Her Royal Highness getting angry, the two shadow warriors stopped talking and immediately jumped into the water, but did not go ashore. They just swam far away, one to the left and the other to the right. They floated in the water with their backs to the ship, their heads exposed, and their ears missing.

Under the water.

"Your Highness the Princess is so fierce." Cohen smacked his lips, "The little envoy is scared."

"Young Master, do you want to deal with me again?" Princess Berni looked at Cohen, her eyes became sad, "How long are you going to deal with me?"

Even if he faced thousands of troops, he was not afraid, but the look in Princess Berni's eyes left Cohen speechless. He could only pick up the wine glass and look away. Until there was a "dang" sound, there was something metal

After being thrown onto the table between the two of them, Cohen turned his gaze back.

On the table, a sharp blade was shining coldly.

"Without him, I have nothing in my heart; with him, I have everything." Princess Berni said faintly: "Tell me! With just one word, you can decide whether this blade will be thrown into the water by me or not.

I put it back on my wrist."

"Before Her Royal Highness returned to the country, I told Her Royal Highness something to you." Picking up the blade with two fingers, Cohen reached out to the water. "It seems that Your Highness, Your Highness, did not understand my words well!"

"You mean..."

Cohen smiled slightly, loosened his fingers, and the blade sank into the water with a "ripple" sound, and disappeared in an instant. (To be continued)
