After the Legend Chapter 120: Underground activities of various parties (Part 1)
Gail II's body is getting better day by day. In less than ten days, he can walk to the side hall at the front of the palace with the help of others, visit the ministers who are dealing with affairs there, and bring them to the palace. Come for refreshment. Many people felt very moved and swore in front of the king that they would perform their duties faithfully and be loyal to him for life.
At the same time, news spread throughout Nomonka, and people spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate, and they planned to celebrate on the upcoming May Day. Although they were dispersed by the soldiers in the name of obstructing the law and order, the The hearts of the people have been conveyed to the palace, making Gal II in a better mood.
He smiled and said to Mintel, who came to deliver the medicine: "You are really a capable child. I didn't expect to get better so quickly. Can you get better faster? I hope to return to work as soon as possible, I It's been a long time since I left state affairs."
Minte advised: "Don't be impatient, Your Majesty, old people often say that it is easy to get sick, but difficult to cure. Your body is still very weak, so it is best not to force it too hard. If you are tired, it will slow down the speed of recovery. You have waited for so many years, can't you wait a month or two?"
To be honest, Gal II's condition has improved now. It's not that Mintel gave him some panacea, it's just that the potion he took has detoxified his body and strengthened his physique. . But he's been sick for too long, his body is too weak, he can't afford frequent activities, and he needs to rest for a long time before recovering slowly. His previous behavior had actually had a negative effect on his body. But Gale II was very insistent, Jada persuaded a few words, and did not stop it, Mintel reluctantly agreed. In fact, he knew that Gale II's approach was more for political considerations.
Sure enough, Gal II sighed when he heard the words: "Of course I can wait, but unfortunately some people can't wait!"
Mintel understands what he means. He has already sensed that there has been an undercurrent in the palace recently. Some of the ministers and court attendants were very uneasy. Obviously, the improvement of Gale II's health has caused great pressure to some people, and he who caused this incident has also frequently become the object of criticism by some officials, believing that his origin is unknown. He is young and has poor medical skills, so he is not qualified to heal the country
Prince Mario and his son went to the palace to see the king more often. The prince himself was fine, but he only came to visit every other day and the queen mother by the way. He spent more time training the army or dealing with military affairs. Prince Lawler came to Gale II at least two or three times a day. Every time I have to stay for at least half an hour, and then I go to the palace in the back mountain to spend most of the day with the Queen Mother, and even the newly acquired beauty doesn't care.
He is with the king. The most disliked person is Jada, who often dangles in front of Gal II, and another Mintel. Every time we meet, he loves to sneer. But Gal II trusted Mint very much, and he didn't dare to go too far, but he didn't expect that his behavior had caught Mintel's attention. Minte's temporary residence is at the end of the corridor on the left outside the king's room, just in the west wing of the palace. There are two large south-facing windows in the room, and you can see the small garden outside the front side hall. Every day there are three or two officials gathered together for secret talks. They only saw that the dense bushes in the garden could block the view of others, but they did not expect that what they had done had fallen into the eyes of others. Although he couldn't hear what they were saying, Mintel deduced the names and positions of these people based on the list of officials who came to see the king every day, and recorded the implied information. And of all these officials, at least 40 percent of the people met with Prince Lawler in another place after the party.
The bathroom in Mint's room also has a small window facing north. Looking down from its angle, it happens to be a corner of the garden in the palace, between the front and back palaces. Because of the remote location, few people go there. Minte inadvertently glanced out the window, but unexpectedly found Lawler here. Meet with people.
The objects of his secret meeting are not only officials, but also the maids in the palace, except for an older one. The two young and beautiful girls moved close to him. There seems to be an ambiguous relationship. He saw these women at different time periods. Mint didn't know the other two, but he knew that one of them had appeared by the king's side.
This waitress is presumably serving in the restaurant. Gale II was seriously ill for a long time. Rarely dine outside the room. Only a few days ago two prestigious ministers came to see him. He specially kept them for dinner. When Minte sent the medicine to the place. Only then did he see the waitress pouring tea beside him.
Mint is by the window. Looking coldly at Prince Lawler, who was having **** with the beauty in the flowers. I don't understand what's so attractive about a man who looks good but has a sly face. Even Jada looks better than him. But the waitress sat shyly on Lawler's lap. Sometimes distressed. Sometimes surprised. Sometimes hesitant. But in the end it was still soft in his arms.
On that night. The maid brought a bowl of fish soup carefully cooked by the royal chef to Gale II. Mint was not surprised to discover that some unknown ingredient had been added to the soup. He said the fish was not fresh. Drinking it on the grounds that it is not good for the king's health. Stop Gal II from drinking this bowl of soup (and get a few white eyes from the royal chef). on the other hand. He also hinted at the palace steward. Let the other party check the king's diet more carefully. And the waitress. He was transferred from his original post the next day. to the Queen Mother's Palace.
Medicine in fish soup. He checked afterwards. It is a chronic poison. Anyone who takes it. in twelve hours. Died silently in his sleep.
It was only then that Mint began to notice the man Prince Lawler. He had always focused on Prince Mario before. Treat this prince as a first-class figure of a playboy. Think about it now. It's too careless.
Lawler wears the title of Princely Land. Although not officially established as the crown prince. But in the eyes of many people. There is no difference with the crown prince. If at this stage. The words of King Gale II who were seriously ill. The succession to the throne is very likely to fall on him. Jada although there are many people support. But due to the existence of the Queen Mother. Ascension is unlikely.
And if it was Prince Mario who took the throne, Lawler, his eldest son rather than his only son, would still seem uneasy even if he was still the heir to the throne. Mario is healthy and has at least 20 or 30 years to live. Will Lawler have the patience to continue waiting for so many years?
In this case. It's not surprising that Lawler has his own selfishness. Mintel had also wondered whether he was following his father's wishes, or was he doing it on his own? But every time Prince Mario comes to see his brother, he always likes to talk to himself. Behaving very domineering, but never had any big quarrel with Gale II, the brothers seem to have a good relationship. So, poisoning my uncle should be Lawler's own idea, right?
No matter what, Mintel has made up his mind to keep Gale II safe. After getting along for a long time, he found that he really liked this short little old man, who was gentle, wise and knowledgeable. He admired it very much, and sometimes he couldn't help but worry: why is Gal II the king of Norgadi? But there is such a king, at least it is much better than a warlike person like Prince Mario occupying the throne.
Mintel begins in the medicine for Gale II. Calming ingredients. Recently, this king has been patronizing political affairs, and he has almost forgotten that he is still a patient. I hope that with the power of the potion, he can rest for a while.
There was a knock at the door, Minte went over to open the door and saw a guard: "His Excellency Duke Jada has brought a guest, saying that he is looking for you, and is now at His Majesty's place, please hurry up Click here."
Looking for him? Minter paused. Suddenly thinking of a possibility, he quickly suppressed the joy in his heart, poured the prepared medicine into a tall glass, and took it to the king's room.
Jada is sitting with Gal II, having a good conversation with a strange man with a fat head and ears. The man had a round face, a fat body, and wore typical Shaonan rich clothes. Everyone would think he was a businessman when they saw him. And Gale II's dialogue with him also confirmed this: "...how is the harvest this year? I heard that there are many good harvests in several places."
"You're right, we people in the north can already see a bumper harvest in autumn. I heard that the south is better than us. They are ready to harvest and can also plant the second season of grain. After a year, the total It's twice as much as us! This year is really good, and our business is making more money than in previous years."
"I heard that there are rivers, seas and lakes everywhere in Shaonan. I never worry about droughts. But there are some places with few rivers, right? What kind of food do those places produce?"
"Well..." The man tilted his head and thought for a while, "In Shaonan. It's hard to find a place without rivers and lakes. If there really isn't, that land is not suitable for farming. If Your Majesty wants to know this, It is better to ask the people in East, there are few rivers in the north, and there is a lot of food, but I have never eaten the corn and wheat they grow. I heard that it is not as good as round rice, and the price is very low. We never sell it. This."
Gael II pondered for a moment, then asked: "Do you know...where to buy corn and wheat field seeds..."
At this time, Jada found Minte walking in, and smiled, "You're here? Look at this one, do you recognize who it is?"
Minte really didn't recognize it, but from the chic knot tied on the other's belt, he immediately realized who it was, and smiled, "So it's you, you've gained a lot of weight, I almost didn't recognize it. "
The man laughed and scolded: "You stinky boy, what's wrong with your fat? It proves that I have a good appetite! Your boy suddenly came here, and the family knew it was a mess. Your parents were scared to death, saying that you How dare you be so bold!"
Mint smiled, glanced at Gale II and Jada who were smiling, and asked, "What message do you have at home? What does the old man say when he knows?"
"The old man scolds, but he also said that you have the guts. This is a good opportunity. If you can make some achievements, he will also be happy, but the most important thing is to take care of yourself. If things don't go well, go home. Go, the old man said, the most important thing is that people are safe."
Although this doesn't sound like a big deal, Minte has already realized what it means, and he is slightly moved. He solemnly said to the man: "Please tell them, let them rest assured, I know what to do. "
"Hello." Jada interjected with a smile, "Don't say such things in front of Your Majesty and me."
"Didn't you also win me over in front of the housekeeper? This is probably retribution, right?" Minte is now familiar with the people around Gale II, and he dares to joke about Jada.
Jada smirked, Gal watched cheerfully, not interrupting at all.
As soon as the man rolled his eyes, he said to Minter: "There is a letter from home, it's from His Excellency the Duke, and I also brought what you want." After that, he took it out from his arms A palm-length crystal bottle came: "Be careful, Mr. Sauron said, this is what he prepared with the last materials, there is only so much. If you collect precious materials, remember to return them to him."
Minte's face was full of surprise, so he took it carefully, opened the lid and smelled it, just what he needed: "Thank you, go back and thank him for me, please rest assured, I will collect the ground Good materials will be sent to him.”
Jada was a little curious: "What is that?" Mint smiled mysteriously: "I'll tell you later." Jada had to stop asking and took out the letter to him. Minte swept across the opening of the envelope, smiled slightly, and put it in his arms.
The man left soon after leaving. He came this time under the name of Mintel's old employer. On the surface, he wanted to use the relationship between Mintel and Jada to reach a long-term cooperation agreement. Sell the grain to Nuojialai. And Gale II and Jada were worrying about food, so naturally they agreed very readily, but in terms of transportation, they had to discuss further, and Gale II left this matter to a trusted minister. .
As soon as the man left, Jada grabbed Minte and asked, "What the **** is in that bottle?! The man didn't tell me at all, and he brought such a bottle!"
Minte gently waved his hand and said indifferently: "When I said that ordinary poisons can't hurt me, aren't you envious? It's because I drank medicines when I was a child that I won't be poisoned. That's it."
Jada's eyes lit up: "You mean..."
"This is an improved formula, it's a little better than the one I drink~IndoMTL.com~ If you drink it, you'll be lethargic for a whole day, and then it will work. It's for two, if If you don't believe it, you can find someone to try it, but it's best not to waste it too much, this kind of medicine is not something that can be dispensed casually. Also, don't tell others that it exists."
Jada held his breath, took the crystal bottle carefully, and quickly glanced at Gal II, who was also full of surprise, but quickly regained his calm: "You really want this bottle of medicine. Give it to me? What do you wish for?"
Minte looked at the two of them and suddenly smiled: "If I didn't ask, Your Majesty and Your Excellency would not believe it, right? It's actually very simple. Since I have come this far with this ability, if I can become a It must be a great honor to be the royal potionist of the palace. My teacher, Mr. Sauron mentioned just now, is a straight-tempered person. His young classmate became the royal potionist of the Shaonan court, but he I can only stay in the academy to teach children, and I have always been very unconvinced. If I can take this seat, then he will become the teacher of the imperial potionist, I must be very happy, right?"
Gail II and Jada looked at each other and readily agreed, but because Mintel was too young and too prominent among a group of royal old men, the official appointment would not be issued until he became an adult. Mintel also readily responded, and at the same time asked that "uncle" to see him again before returning home, and entrust him with the reply letter and the property that the king had given him to bring back to his family.
The bottle of magic potion made Jada put aside her doubts about "Mintel" and felt very ashamed, and he did not hesitate to agree to the request. And Minte, after returning to the room, opened the letter that had been read, and smiled when he found the information he needed between the lines.
