Chapter 22 The Fourth Prince

The streets of the imperial capital were extremely lively, and every household seemed extremely happy.On the spacious Imperial Capital Avenue, sheds have been set up one after another. Inside the sheds are various goods waiting to be sold. The vendors are sitting in the sheds excitedly, waiting anxiously.

Today is the annual big event of the Alante Empire - the visit of the Heouce Empire Mission.There are many mountains in the Heouce Empire, and there are many wild beasts in the mountains. Most of the people live by hunting and eat meat.And every year in this month, the mission of Heouce will take a large amount of items made of beast fur or pickled beast meat to the Arante Empire in an airship.

Speaking of this salt jerky made of beast meat, it can be said that it is the only one with no semicolon.Because many valleys in the Heousi Empire are windy all year round, the hunters smear the excess meat with salt and hang it in the valley to dry it into jerky.Some of the dried meat was kept for their own use, and the other part was handed over to the royal family for trade exchanges with other empires.

Several airships floated over the walls of the imperial capital, slowly flew to the designated location, and landed slowly according to the arrangement of the imperial capital officials.There are several towering mountains painted on the airship, and this symbol represents the Heousi Empire.All merchant ships belonging to the royal family in the Heousi Empire have such marks engraved on them.

A burly man in bright silver armor stepped down from the airship first.Facing the officials standing under the airship, he smiled disdainfully, and continued walking without even looking.The welcoming officials were about to speak out to stop them, but they were stopped by the people who came down next.

"That's His Royal Highness Julian Heucai. He has a bad temper and hates being judged by others. I advise you not to make a sound." This man was dressed in a noble robe, the color was more elegant, and he was an upright man. Angie, the head of the mission.

In the past few years, the imperial family had entrusted him with missions. I don’t know why the fourth prince was sent this time. Does the empire not trust him?Although there were many doubts in his mind, he still kindly raised a point. After all, they dealt with each other every time and they were already familiar with each other.

"Thank you, Anjidu, how about coming to my house for a drink tonight?" the official said thankfully, looking at Anjidu.His name is Felin, and he is just a small earl. If Anjidu hadn't mentioned him, he would really be in trouble this time.Although it was the first time to see His Royal Highness Julian's true face, he had heard of his vicious reputation for a long time.I don't know why he came this time, and I hope there will be no trouble, otherwise he will be finished.

An Jidu nodded, and then quickly caught up with Julian. Although he didn't know why he wanted to go out with him, he was Heousi's fourth prince after all, and he couldn't do anything to him even if he was outside. , or to take good care of it is.With Julian's temper, if he was dissatisfied at one point, he wouldn't even have to go back to the empire.

Feilin shook his head, and ordered people to get on the airship and carefully move the goods brought by Heouce to the warehouse on the side, and then hurriedly catch up with Julian and his party.He will also take Heouce's mission to the royal castle to meet His Majesty the King.

Along the long street paved with red carpets, a group of people slowly came to the ancient castle of the empire.

The blue-black castle is very magnificent, standing there majesticly, making people dare not desecrate it.

The suspension bridge outside the gate of the castle has been put down, and the long red carpet spreads directly into the castle.Knights in armor and long swords stood on both sides of the red carpet.This is the highest welcome to the Heouce mission, and it is also to demonstrate the momentum and capabilities that the Alante Empire should have.

Walking into the old castle, there is a large courtyard, and a fountain is built directly opposite the gate.The water gushes out from top to bottom, sparkling under the sunlight.

On both sides of the fountain are two spacious roads, and on both sides of the road, two gardens are displayed in front of you.There are colorful flowers planted in the garden, and the flowers are competing to bloom, which looks very lively.

The bees were buzzing happily picking nectar, and their feet were covered with golden pollen.From time to time, bold birds flapped their wings and came lightly to the courtyard of the castle, searching for bugs in the garden.

Everything seemed very peaceful.

Walking along the road, the Council Hall appeared in front of you.The ministers of the Alante Empire have been waiting here for a long time.

When Julian walked into the council hall, the waiting ministers looked at Julian in astonishment for a long time, and then hurriedly saluted: "See Your Highness Julian." But they were all curious in their hearts, how could this lustful and bloodthirsty prince not The notice came to the Alante Empire.

Looking proudly at the people bowing to him in front of him, Julian was very proud and thought to himself: when he ascended the throne, all the ministers of the empire will also salute him like this, let's see who dares to say something behind his back Four!Thinking of this, Julian became even happier.

"The king and queen are here~" A voice sounded from the back directly in front of the council hall.

All the ministers hurriedly straightened up, adjusted their clothes and stood facing the chairs at the front of the council hall.Julian also hurried to the middle of the council hall and waited with his mission.

A middle-aged man in a bright yellow dress with a crown on his head and a rather plump body, holding a lady in a long skirt and a crown of jewels on her head, walked slowly to the chair directly in front of the council hall and sat down .They are the highest rulers of the Alante Empire, the King and Queen of Alante.

"See Your Majesty the King and Your Highness the Queen." The ministers paid their respects neatly.

"Okay, there's no need to be too polite. I heard that Heouce's mission has arrived, right?" The king looked at Julian, and then asked the prime minister on the left below.

"I have met His Majesty the King. I am Julian Heucai, the fourth prince of the Heousi Empire. This time I am here with the embassy. I hope His Majesty will not mind." Before the left minister could speak, Julian took the lead to face the king. He bent over and said.His arrogant attitude made Prime Minister Zuo frown.What is the meaning of the Heouce Empire? Why would such a person be appointed as an envoy to the Alante Empire? Is it to provoke a war between the two countries?

But Zuo Xiang didn't know that Julian just followed the mission to the Alante Empire without telling the royal family this time.The king of the Heousi Empire, that is, Julian's father, is already very old. Julian's visit this time is just to marry the Alante Empire to help him ascend to the throne.

"It turns out to be His Highness Julian. I hope His Highness will have a good time in Alante this time." The king didn't care about Julian's attitude, but he was just a prince, and he was not the first heir. He wanted to fight for some benefits, but unfortunately, this prince with a bad reputation had no interests to follow, so the king didn't even plan to entertain him personally.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I believe that this time I will return home with a lot of fun." Julian smiled slightly, and then continued: "This time, our country brought many high-quality wild animal skins and dried meat of rare birds. This transaction will definitely bring the relationship between Yalante and Heouce further."

Julian's words robbed Anjidu of his job. Unfortunately, no matter how dissatisfied Anjidu was with the fourth prince, he didn't dare to show it. He could only helplessly look at the ministers beside him, his eyes full of resentment .No matter how worried the empire is about itself, it can’t send this idiot prince here. Isn’t this adding to the chaos? If one is not good enough to anger the king of Arante, Julian is fine. He, the leader of the mission, will lose his head .

The king's eyes flashed, and then he and the queen exchanged glances, turned to look at Julian and said, "I'm really bothering Your Highness Julian, these matters should be handled by the ministers, why do you need to come in person?" The king curled his lips in disdain in his heart. He didn't believe that Julian came in person just to tell him these things.With this time, he might as well have afternoon tea with his queen.

"Your Majesty, I have one more thing. I want to ask for your princess, what do you think?" In front of many ministers, Julian said without thinking. He thought he said in front of so many people, Even if the king disagrees, he will not refuse because of his own face.

Unfortunately, his wishful thinking was wrong.The king didn't speak at all, he winked at the left and right ministers, and left with his queen.The prime minister on the left and the prime minister secretly shook his head, this fourth prince really has no brains as rumored.How can this kind of matter be said directly in the government hall? Even if you really want to, you should wait for the king to summon you to discuss it in private.It's a pity that the arrogant Julian didn't pay attention to this point, and it was precisely because of this that the king didn't like Julian very much.

The prime minister on the left stopped Julian, and the prime minister on the right led An Jidu, and the two took the mission out of the council hall.Although the king is dissatisfied with Julian, this will not affect the trade between the two countries.An Jidu was very clear about this, so he ignored Julian, who had a problem with his brain, and followed the right minister to discuss the details of the trade.As long as he earns more and brings Heouce back, the empire will not pursue his problems.

Julian stared at Prime Minister left angrily, not believing that King Arrante would not show him any face.But Julian didn't think about it, he was just a little prince, and he didn't even have a chance to succeed to the throne. As the lord of a country, how could King Alante save him any face.In fact, face needs to be won by oneself, but it is a pity that Julian does not have this ability.

Hmph, if you dare to treat me like this, you will regret it in the future!Thinking angrily in his heart, Julian shook off the group and left the royal castle.Now he needs to find a woman to vent and think about what to do in the future.Without the support of King Alante, the throne was one step away from him, and he didn't want to succumb to others.
