Liars, scoundrels?

Tian Xian touched his face, thinking to himself, is this talking about me?

But whether it is said that Tian Xian is idle or not, Sha Wang is obviously unhappy, and he was going to invite everyone to dinner every day, but this day he didn't invite Tian Xian.

I had no choice but to eat something casually.

Everyone wondered why they didn't invite Tianxian to the dinner today, you must know that these days' dinners are all with the ministers of the Sand King, and if you don't have an invitation, you really can't go to the main hall of the palace to eat and drink.

"Hey, what did you do to that little girl again?"

As soon as everyone came back from the dinner, they immediately blocked Tianxian's room, and Gu Li put a bag of warm and fragrant meat in front of Tianxian, and couldn't wait to ask.

"You're stealing at the dinner party!" Tian Xian opened the small paper bag and suddenly whispered.

"If you don't eat it, forget it, my supper hasn't settled yet. ”

Tianxian hurriedly held down Gu Li's hand, smiled and "smiled" the package of meat, and said while eating: "I just said that we were about to leave, and then this little girl was not happy." ”

Everyone nodded in understanding, and then looked at Tianxian with a "then?" expression.

Tian Xian blinked his eyes, "No, that's all I said, and then she ran away." ”

Everyone looked incredulous.

"Really, that's really all I said. Tian Xian smiled bitterly.

"You're not a royal family, and you're not related to the King of Sha, why does she care about you so much?" "Could it be that little girl has taken a fancy to you?"

"Possibly!" Arion said, worriedly.

"Oh, that's not right!" Dolma's face was suddenly full of longing, and his eyes were full of little stars, "In that case, the gold in this Golden City will not be ours!"

"Well, but there seems to be very little food here. Xiang made a very practical statement.

The Golden City is indeed rich and thrilling, but in addition to gold or gold, in terms of financial reports, even the jewelry is very limited, and the food and clothing are very simple, although the city is very huge. But many cities have few facilities. Almost all of them are tall buildings of the same style and similar appearance.

To put it simply, apart from the gold, the city is actually extremely barren.

Vero suddenly said, "I think this is very normal. Now, the Sand King doesn't want you to leave here. ”

"Why?" everyone wondered.

Tu Ge scratched at his hairy head. Somewhat irritated. "We've helped her take the throne, saved the lives of many humans, and saved the lives of the refugees on the desert border. I think we've done enough to be here for almost half a month now, and I think we should get out of here too. ”

During this time, Tu Ge was not very comfortable, the desert was not very friendly to the lion people, the heat and dryness made him very uncomfortable, especially the wind and sand in the desert all the time, which made Tu Ge, who had a big mouth and big nostrils, tortured, but he did not have the ability to fly over the desert overnight like Xiao Ash, and came here at night to eat and drink, and flew back to the desert border at dawn to take a nap, so he had to endure it here.

Vero explained: "We did help the Sand King regain the throne, but she may not be able to sit on the throne now. ”

Gu Li said helplessly: "Indeed, she is too young now, although she is an orthodox sand king, but after all, she is ordered to be in danger, and now she has no henchmen who can be trusted, she must be trembling when she sits on this throne, but ...... We can't stay behind to assist her, we still have a lot of work to do, and we haven't made any real progress on Norma's commission since we left the Divine Domain. ”

"It's true that we can't stay here any longer, it's inevitable to leave here. Tian Xian nodded, "I don't know what the Sand King thinks now, but I think I should have a good talk with her." ”

As he was talking, suddenly a servant's voice came from outside the door, "Distinguished guests, Lord Sand King is invited!"

Why did you end the dinner party and immediately come back again?

Everyone was also helpless, so they had to simply pack up their instruments, go out and get on the sedan chair and go to the direction of the palace, of course, this time Tianxian was not in the ranks of the invited.

Everyone left, sitting on the bed boredly, and was about to practice the trick of rebellion, when suddenly a voice came from outside: "Distinguished guests, please clean up, Lord Shawang is invited!"

"The man has gone. Tian Xian lazily replied, now it's just me.

"Lord Sand King invites only one distinguished guest. ”

Tianxian was stunned for a moment, jumped out of bed and opened the door to see that the person standing outside the door was no longer the servant who had just come, but a fresh face.

"Sand King looking for me?" Tian Xian looked at the inconspicuous car in the courtyard, the car was closed, and the people who carried the sedan chair were all tattered sedan chairs dressed as ordinary people.

This is not like the grandeur of the Sand King when he invites someone.

Seeing that Tianxian seemed a little suspicious, the man bowed down and said, "Your Excellency doesn't need to be suspicious, Lord Shawang has secretly ordered you to go to the palace to meet immediately." ”

As he spoke, he took out something and held it up to Robben with both hands.

Robben took it and took a look, this is actually part of the Sand King's armor, a piece of metal from the metal gauntlet, that set of armor has been recycled after the Sand King regained power, and it has not been lost at all, this matter The Sand King also said himself that the only one who can take out this kind of thing as a token is the Sand King.

Turning the nail piece in his hand twice, Tian Xian casually took him into his arms, "Let's go." ”

The humble little sedan chair left through the back door, and walked through some hidden paths in the brightly lit Golden City, completely avoiding the main road, and finally stopped at a hidden small door behind the palace.

It was a rusty iron door that had fallen into disrepair, and the gold paint on it was almost peeling off, and the servant who took the lead took out three keys, and opened the three large locks on the door in turn, and then pushed open the small iron door, which was rusty but silent. The rest of the people immediately carried Tianxian and quickly entered the small door.

Tianxian was led all the way by the servant, and finally came to a strange little garden, where there was a small stone table, and some simple wine and food had been arranged.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please wait. The servant led Tianxian here, and then bowed down and retreated, leaving Tianxian here alone.

Looking around, this is a rare place in the desert, with flowers, water and stones, and it is also a pretty good place in the palace.

Sitting at the stone table, Tian Xian wanted to taste the side dishes on the table. Suddenly, a laugh came from outside the garden. "The master hasn't arrived yet, so you secretly ate it yourself?"

Tianxian looked up and saw that the sand king was running into the garden with a smile on his face.

Looks like she's just gone to see someone. Although he was wearing normal clothes. But inside he was wearing a gold undershirt. The tattooed Golden Sands boots on his feet haven't had time to take them off.

Tianxian glanced at her, and bowed his head to eat, there was nothing good to eat in the desert. The delicious food is in the palace, and the meat that Gu Li brought back just now is only enough to stuff his teeth, and his stomach is still a little hungry.

Seeing that the sand king was idle, he ignored himself and only cared about eating, and slapped his hands on the stone table, "You don't salute when you see this king, and you actually grab this king's things to eat in front of you!"

Tianxian looked up at the puffing Sand King, "These things...... I'll talk about it when I'm done. "Even if he is talking, his mouth is not idle, and he keeps eating.

Watching Tianxian gobble up, the Sand King suddenly couldn't help laughing, and sat down at the stone table, "I'll starve you to death, then I'll bury you in the Golden City, and you will become an eternal friend of the desert." ”

Tian Xian quickly ate most of the food, and then sucked his fingers, "Today, you won't invite me to eat, will you......?"

The Sand King leaned his arms on the small table, his hands on his cheeks, "You really don't like the desert, do you?

Tian Xian smiled, "There is nothing to like or dislike, I just have a lot of things to do, I can't stay here forever, my friends and I are really going to leave here soon." ”

The brilliance in the Sand King's eyes dimmed slightly, "Can't you, can you stay a little longer?" I can take you to see the desert, to see the real desert, the desert is definitely not what you see now, just wait until ......"

Tianxian shook his head and stopped the Sand King's words, "No, we really have to leave, it's really too long, you don't want us to leave, is there any reason?"

The sand king's tone was very resolute, he couldn't help sighing, shrunk his body and lay on the small table, looking at Tianxian with slightly pitiful eyes, "You are all gone, what should I do?"

Tianxian couldn't help but smile slightly, "Little fool, this is your desert, you are now the sand king, the master of the desert! I know you must be feeling very uneasy now, but everyone must face their own difficulties, although you have now regained the throne, but the difficulties you have to face have just begun, there is still a long way to go, it is not okay to be discouraged now." ”

The Sand King lowered his gaze and poked the stone table with his small hand, "Are you angry, I didn't call you to eat tonight." ”

"Didn't you call me by now?"

The sand king shook his head, "I'm not angry with you, I just want to talk to you, but I don't want others to know, so I asked someone to secretly invite you." ”

Looking at the previous posture, Tian Xian naturally guessed that this was the case, "Say, find me what I want to say, I will definitely listen carefully." ”

The sand king lowered his head, looked at the edge of the stone table, and his hands involuntarily clasped together, "I'm scared ......"

"Scared?"

"Well, the palace is so big, but I'm the only one...... I have no one to talk to, and I can't trust anyone, my father used to leave me some cronies, but now even they don't dare to believe lightly, and I don't want them to invite you here if I don't have to do it today. ”

"I got the throne, I got everyone's approval, and I avenged my father, but ......"

The Sand King was silent for a while, "I don't know what I'm going to do next, I don't know how to lead my people forward, and I feel a lot of hostility, a lot of ...... And I don't have any friends. ”

Tian Xian sighed, what the sand king said was a big problem.

"Your brothers will definitely help you. ”

The Sand King shook his head slightly, "It may not be appropriate for me to say that, but." But none of them have the ability to rule the empire, my father brought the whole empire to prosperity, but the brothers have fallen in the prosperous empire, they covet comfort, the third prince has not even taken a scimitar, and he faints when he sees blood, how can such a person rule our warriors?"

Tianxian glanced at the Sand Sweeping King, she was young, but the words she said really carried a lot of things that did not match her age.

"I'm young, but I'm actually ......"

The Sand King blinked. Apparently hesitated. After that, he took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to say: "Actually, I have been trained as this generation of sand kings since I was a child. ”

Tian Xian was surprised, if nothing else, shouldn't this generation of sand kings be the current eldest prince? The previous generation of sand kings said this publicly. How to ...... now?

"The brothers are cowardly and covetous. My father saw through this early on. My father said to me when I was four years old that I would be the next Sand King, but I would have to endure more pain than the other princes. ”

Biting his lip. Shawang whispered: "Outsiders know that my father is not good to me, rarely asks me about my affairs, and does not care much about me, and puts his mind on several princes, hoping to cultivate a good heir, but in fact I am secretly receiving strict teaching, from politics and law to war, from management methods to war strategies, I am studying intensely in secret." ”

Raising his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, the Sand King continued: "Unfortunately, only three years later, when I turned seven years old, according to the rules of the royal family, my father would personally take me into the sandstorm of the desert to be baptized, who knows......"

Tianxian then understood, no wonder this little girl behaved so decisively and rationally, she actually began to learn how to be a qualified sand king since she was four years old, and then the sand king was assassinated, she herself was able to rely on the armor to cover people's ears for two years, this originally somewhat ridiculous thing became reasonable.

"However, my father was seriously injured and soon left me, and I only got part of the inheritance of the Sand King, and many secrets that the Sand King knew, perhaps no one will ever know again, although I am now sitting on the throne, but in fact...... It's only half a sand king. ”

Tian Xian touched his eyebrows, shook his head and said: "Since no one can know those secrets, then all sand kings will be like this in the future, if each sand king can only be counted as half, then each sand king can naturally be said to be complete, what are you worried about?"

"Maybe the people of the desert will think the same way after the Sand King in a few generations, but now they won't. "I don't know a lot about the king of the sand king, but perhaps someone knows, so though I sit on the throne, I am in danger, and besides...... I can feel a lot of hostility, the remnants of Dore's party are still hidden in the empire, they don't dare to act rashly, but if they do, they will definitely cause great chaos. ”

"And what do you want to do?"

The Sand King raised his head and looked at Tianxian with a look that was obvious but not longing, but she quickly withdrew her gaze, "I don't trust anyone now, and I can't believe it, I don't know who Dore's remnants are, but I can trust you, it's a pity...... You're going to leave after all, so I'm actually going to discuss something with you this time and listen to your opinion. ”

Tianxian thought that the sand king wanted to keep him, but he didn't expect her to say such a thing, and he was a little reluctant in his heart, "Say, if I can help, I will definitely not shirk it." ”

The Sand King turned around and touched his face with his sleeve indiscriminately, and then turned around, "You...... Did you hear those words before Doeller died?"

Tianxian nodded, "You mean, your father doesn't care about those warriors, right?"

"Well......" the Sand King whispered, "we Shalit people revere the strong, and my father pushed this situation to the top, dying for the Empire, buried in the yellow sand, and the soul scattered with the wind and sand, this is our belief, under my father's rule, the empire is unprecedentedly united and strong." ”

"But I didn't expect that in this case there was such a hidden danger, my father's most trusted Uncle Dole would actually rebel and assassinate directly, these days I have been wondering, is it ...... Father is wrong?"

Tianxian shook his head, "The human heart is unpredictable, thousands of Shalit warriors, only Dole rebelled, this does not mean that your father is wrong." ”

The sand king also shook his head, "No, even if my father is right, but this way of governing the country must also have flaws, otherwise Uncle Dole will never be like this, let alone win over many comrades! This time it was not Uncle Dole who rebelled, but many people who represented his will, and many people who fought against his father's will......"

Tian Xian was really surprised that this little girl had such a unique vision.

"Speaking of which, although the empire is unprecedentedly united and powerful, but the lives of the people are also very different, the warriors are rich, but the weak people are poor, under the will of the father, no one sympathizes with them, no one helps them, many of them die silently, the empire has reached its strongest strength in these decades, but the population has not increased but fallen, because those desert people who cannot fight are dying in pieces behind the warriors. ”

"And those soldiers who have experienced the battlefield and can no longer fight are also the same as those who are weak, they die sadly, and their glory, dignity, and qiē are all abandoned by us......"

"I think I have to make amends for my father's mistakes in order to really stand on my feet! Force is important, but it can't dominate the desert by force alone! If I want to change this, I ...... What to do?"

"This is the fundamental national policy of governing the country, and you actually came to ask an outsider?" Tian Xian smiled bitterly.

"I can't openly oppose my father's approach, let alone go to the ministers to discuss this matter, and besides, I have no one else to discuss now, so I can only listen to you. ”

Tianxian was uncomfortable by the scorching gaze of the Sand King, "You want to listen?"

"Hmm!"

"I'm just an outsider, not even a desert person, and my construction may not be beneficial!"

"It's okay!"

"I really want to listen!"

"Really!"

Tianxian hesitated for a while, "Okay, then don't regret it!" (To be continued......)
