Chapter 26: To live a decent life
Ilion Palace.
After the last time, the assassination of the eldest prince in front of the Black Rock Volcano was revealed, and the civil war naturally subsided.
But although the war has stopped, the rift between the royal family and the Monet family cannot be erased!
Whether it was Emperor Priamer's distrust of Empress Helena or Grand Duke Monet's dissatisfaction with his daughter's grievance, the stalemate between the two sides reached its peak.
Since the end of the last war, Queen Helena and the little princess Helen have not returned to the imperial capital, but have stayed in the territory of Grand Duke Monet.
However, with the post-war reconstruction of the country, it was not a big deal for the emperor and his family to separate for many years. First, as the cause of the war, the disagreement between the emperor and Helena would always make the people worry that the next war would begin at any time; second, as the largest real noble in the country, Grand Duke Monet occupied half of the Irion Empire and did not receive his support, so the emperor Priamo was also uneasy.
As for the third, although he was somewhat suspicious of Helena and his daughter Helen, he had to admit that the family had lived for more than ten years. Emperor Priamer still had feelings for this beautiful wife and daughter who was so beautiful that she was not like her own...
Therefore, after nearly half a year of separation between the two places, at the invitation of Emperor Priamer, Queen Helena and Princess Helen, accompanied by the Red Dragon King Andre, and a negotiating expert under Grand Duke Monet, went to the imperial capital to negotiate the reunion of both sides.
At the royal level, marriage is not just a matter of emotion. The interests and political factors involved will affect the entire country and even the entire continent. The terms and commitments that need to be discussed are so complex that they are not inferior to negotiations between major powers!
In the ritual hall in the palace, Helena and the emperor were on both sides. At this moment, it should be the queen's side to speak.
The negotiator who accompanied him was the most famous diplomat under Grand Duke Monet, or in the language of the East, he could be called a lobbyist. It can be said that Grand Duke Monet was able to gain such a large force, annex such a huge territory, and so many nobles swore allegiance. Not only with his strong strength and political skills, but also his diplomatic teams made an indelible contribution!
And Carroll, who came this time, is the best one in the diplomatic team!
Just as the negotiating expert made a generous speech, Emperor Priamer was absent-minded and turned a deaf ear to what the expert said. His eyes were only wandering back and forth on Andre, Helena and Helen.
"The man is tall and handsome, and the woman is peerless. Helen has been away from the palace for more than a year and has become more beautiful, more beautiful and charming than Helena in the past..." His Majesty the King's eyes were filled with anger, "You three are really like a family of three..."
Of course, he didn't dare to say this, but even when he was living with Helena, he had thought of this idea in his mind more than once.
Sixteen years ago, an earthquake suddenly occurred in northern Irion, which disturbed the ancient dragon of the Black Rock Volcano. This terrifying monster flew all the way to the imperial capital of Irion and destroyed it!
However, no one in the imperial capital could subdue this legendary monster. I don’t know when the support of the Holy Temple will be fired. As the king, he is helpless...
"What the hell do you want to do?!" In despair, Priamo stood on the tallest tower of the palace with a sharp sword, questioning the red dragon Andre who was hovering in the sky!
"Salvation of the most noble and beautiful woman in your country!"
The dragon is wise. Priammo knew this and could hear it with his own ears that a huge monster dozens of meters long when he spoke, the shock was not comparable to the illustrations in the book and the performances on the stage!
But then, the king understood what Andre said!
The most noble and most beautiful woman?!
In the Ilion Empire, when people mention these two words, the first thing they think of is Queen Helena!
Before he got married, he was famous all over the country for his amazing beauty. He married into the royal family at the age of a flower. When he was newlywed, he was actually missed by an ugly dragon?
Emperor Priamro was furious when he heard this request. No man would tolerate the hatred of taking his wife!
Regardless of the huge gap in his rank, he raised his sword and roared at Andre. However, the powerful tail of the dragon was indeed greeted by him!
The tower collapsed and the king was buried in the ruins... But with the strong body of the third-level combat vocation and the treatment of the palace life mage, he finally turned danger into safety and woke up after many days of cultivation.
The first thing the king heard about when he woke up was that the queen was taken away by the giant dragon!
Yes, in order to save this city and this empire, Queen Helena, who was less than 20 years old at the time, took the initiative to sacrifice herself and was kidnapped by the evil dragon...
When Priamer heard this, he was furious and dragged his sick body to issue an order to recruit warriors to slay dragons and form an army. He would rather step on the Black Rock Volcano than kill the evil dragon and rescue Queen Hailena!!
However, before the army could be formed, Helena was back!
He was sent back by a tall and handsome red-haired man!
And this man is the human form of the legendary red dragon Andre who invaded the imperial capital before!
Before, he didn't hesitate to demolish the palace and set fire everywhere and took the queen away, but now he has taken the initiative to send it back?
But no matter what, it is always a good thing to come back. Facing the lost queen, and the red dragon Andre, who is standing beside her, the culprit, and Priamo don't even know whether she should be happy or take revenge...
But no matter what, the red dragon seemed to have no intention of starting a war again this time. Not only did it put away its combat form, it appeared in a human form, and spoke very politely. However, the words before leaving made Priamer uncomfortable no matter how he heard it...
"Take good care of Helena! If she has something to do, your entire country cannot afford to compensate you!"
What is this? After hearing this, Priammo couldn't help but feel upset. My wife, isn't it necessary for me to take care of me? Why are you so concerned about? What does it have to do with you? You still use my country to threaten me? What do you mean?
However, he only dared to say these complaints in his heart. He had experienced Andre's skills before, which made him unhappy. In anger, he really demolished the imperial capital, and no one could stop it...
In any case, the result was pretty good. The beautiful queen came back in full, and the newlyweds lived a happy life again... Just when Priammo decided that everything would be back on track, a shocking news almost knocked him down!
