【242】Under Watching(1/3)

"Hoo, ho, ho..."

Mondaya sat in front of a mirror, constantly adjusting her breathing.

The mirror is made of polished obsidian with no cracks or impurities and is completely black. Looking at the entire valley, such mirrors are extremely rare.

And as the most beloved granddaughter of the Lord of the Valley, she has the most beautiful things in the world.

No one in the world resists beauty, but they definitely yearn for freedom.

For this girl, Keya, who came from beyond the valley, was the apple that fell into the Garden of Yin, giving her real desire.

"Your Highness, it's time to set off!"

A call came from outside the house, but the entire palace was already boiling with anticipation for the ceremony of the prince's mission.

Mendaya stood up. She had already changed into her costume.

In fact, there is another lining under the dress, so you can easily take off the dress and put on other clothes.

The waiters and servants lifted up the sedan chair and set off towards the high platform of the sacrificial temple.

Along the way, they met many teams of princes and nobles, and finally when they arrived under the high platform...

The sky is bright.

More than 200,000 people gathered throughout the city, and the army maintained order. When the princes and nobles arrived, they stood at the foot of the steep steps and waited quietly.

As a long horn sound spread, the drums sounded like a thunderous rhythm.

In the distance, a "moving palace" is slowly approaching, as if floating on a sea of ​​people.

The person in the palace is "Tezozomok".

The only king of this powerful country.

The palace landed dullly in front of the stairs, and the carpet rolled down and was spread flat. The old Lord of the Valley finally stepped down...

The nobles knelt down and worshiped.

At the same time, more than 200,000 people kowtowed to him like waves.

The ceremony is completed.

The eldest prince, who was also entering old age, came and followed his father up the steps.

At this time, a group of nobles slowly followed.

They will ascend to the place closest to the sky, pray to the "God of Balance", beg for her mercy, and accept surrender, goodwill, and tribute from the Lord of the Valley.

The process of climbing the ladder is extremely long.

People need to slow down and give terzozomoc some time to breathe.

And vaguely, there was a buzz of discussion——

"The Lord of the Kingdom has personally implemented it for His Highness the Great Prince, which will confirm the rumors in the palace..."

"What rumor? It's no longer a rumor. Everyone in the royal family knows that as long as the eldest prince returns from peace talks, he will be the next king!"

"The second prince and the third prince will be willing to do so?"

"Haha, maybe when the eldest prince sleeps in the underground palace, the old king can still drink three cups of tequila liqueur every day!"

"The eldest prince will only go too far. The real battle for the king lies with the second and third princes!"

"You have forgotten one person, Your Highness Mendaya."

Someone's eyes began to search, and finally they found that the young girl had walked to the old king's side at some point and helped him continue to go up.

"This kind of favor is unprecedented among the descendants of the royal family."

"The old king's love for her is truly out of the care of the elders!"

The discussion began to diverge, and Mondaya represented the unknown.

Among the crowd, the seventeenth prince naturally heard all this and looked at his daughter serving the king, feeling extremely proud in his heart.

Suddenly, a figure emerged from beside him, "Your Highness."

The seventeenth prince converged his gaze and looked at the man. It was he who sent the guards to chase down Keya and his son: "Is the matter resolved?"

"I have disappointed His Highness!"

"What?" Prince Seventeen couldn't help exclaiming, attracting the attention of those around him.

He immediately lowered his voice and said, "What's going on? It's been three days and you haven't found them yet?"

"I chased and searched all night long, and even sent out quick feet to go to the 'Shield City' and turned back, but found nothing."

"You know, all the city-states have been closed. If they enter the city, the whereabouts of the father and son cannot be hidden."

"And with the strength of their feet, they won't be able to go very far!"

The seventeenth prince cursed angrily in a low voice: "Did they have wings on their bodies and fly away out of thin air?"

"No, I suspect they came back after leaving the city!"

"What's the meaning?"

The guard said: "There is a secret passage inside the big city that connects to the outside of the city."

"I know there is a secret passage, but why did they know about it? Or, how could they have thought that I would hunt them down?"

The guard continued: "This is just a guess, but it is also possible that they did bypass Shield City and take a long way out of the valley!"

"However, I have arranged a large number of people to go to various cities in the north to deliver arrest orders. Anyone who takes the heads of these three people will receive a heavy reward."

"Your Highness, give me a few more days and I will give you a satisfactory explanation!"

The seventeenth prince did not want to say more, but in fact, in his opinion, the father and son would not have the courage to return unless they died.

Of course, it would be best if he could be put to death directly, because that humble servant had almost contaminated the blood of the royal family.

"Okay, after today's ceremony, you can go hunting again."

Soon, we will reach the top.

Another person walked up to the Seventeenth Prince and called him by his name: "Tiers."

The seventeenth prince suddenly turned around, and was about to get angry, but in an instant he changed into a smile and said, "Your Highness."

The person who came was none other than the third prince.

"We are all sons of the king, why don't you call me brother?"

"Your Highness, the third highness, is sitting on the staff of military power. How can I compare with you?"

"Tilse, why are you pretending to me? I know you have great ambitions in your heart and covet the position of the king; Mondaya has been favored like no other! 'Queen of the Valley' is such a glorious title, even if it is

In the history of our ancestors, there were only a handful of them."

Tiers was frightened: "Your Highness, please don't lie. The Lord of the country is in good health, and His Highness has gone on missions for all countries. Besides you and His Highness, Mondaya will never be able to do it."

"That's enough." The third prince grabbed his arm and used force, making him look hideous in pain, but he didn't dare to scream...

"Your Highness, what are you going to do?"

"Relax, I want to make you sober! Let's talk directly! It doesn't matter whether the eldest prince returns with success..."

"The focus is still on the few of us! I have military power, but I am subject to financial power. Without financial resources, the armies of several vassal countries will not listen to my orders."

"So, we have to cooperate! If you can get Mendaya to gain financial power, I will use the army to push Mendaya to power! Let's work together to eliminate the second child!"

Hiss.

Tiers gasped: "Why?"

"What can you gain? Wait until the future to kill my daughter?"

"No, no, no." The third prince looked at Mendaya on the steps and smiled: "I am her husband, and we are the co-owners of the valley!"

"Mr. Wang?!

"Tiers was shocked. This was something he had never thought of.

Royal blood marriages often happen.

Even if the Third Highness is Mendaya's uncle, it doesn't matter. On the contrary, it can make the royal power more stable, and the cooperation will benefit both parties.

And looking at all the countries in the valley, which country does not have the blood of its ancestors?

For example, the "Aztec" who was already a prisoner and the wife of the monarch who died in divine punishment was the daughter of Tezozomoc.

Mendaya always wants to marry, and if she marries out, there is a high probability that she will be her cousin.

Then why can't it be an uncle?

Seeing that Tiers was shocked and speechless, the third prince said: "This is the best choice!"

"And I give you my promise. My and Mundaya's child will have the first line of inheritance, and when I am old, she will still be young."

"She looks so much like her father, she may become the second longest-lived Lord of the Valley!"

At this point, Tiers could no longer argue: "Deal!"
To be continued...
