MTL - Heroes of Silver Moon-Chapter 687 : postwar (2)
"Your Highness, Your Highness, good news, Your Majesty has won a big victory!" The female officer ran all the way to Irina's place with the victory report in her hand and her skirt in her hands.
"God, God bless!"
After receiving the result, Irina breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered: "Hurry up, get everyone ready, we will welcome His Majesty's triumphant return."
Waiting in fear these days has worried her to the core.
Under the call of the royal family, the entire royal capital was happily decorated, with flowers and ribbons everywhere.
The female relatives were chattering, talking about which man would be more heroic. The bard sang about the heroic deeds on the battlefield everywhere, and the people who heard them cheered. At the same time, they did not forget to throw a few coins to the bard.
In the anticipation of everyone, Simon returned with a guard force, except for Graton who stayed behind on the Yelin River defense line, all the senior officers of the new army were among them.
At the gate of the city, Queen Irina waited quietly with her ministers and female relatives. The people surrounded the street with water, and the nobles were lucky enough to climb the city wall to watch the heroic appearance of the king's triumphant return.
Xi Ludi sighed in a strange way: "Oh, it's really not easy to repel the orcs. Finally, I can get together with my man."
All the high-level officers of the new army can go home for a few days of vacation every quarter. Although it doesn't last long, at least they can reunite with their families for a while.
But as the head of the new regiment, Harris was obviously not among them.
Xi Ludi couldn't remember how long she hadn't seen her husband. If she was really lonely, she would have to take the initiative to go to the Yelin River defense line to reunite with her husband.
Alicia kept silent about this. Although Guy was not at home all day, compared to the officers of the new regiment, he was not a little bit better. Basically, every time the Dreadnought returned to Hong Kong to rest, he could stay at home. Last ten days.
Among these female relatives, she spends the most time with her husband, so of course there is no room for complaint.
"Hey, I heard that the orcs have an army of 300,000 people, and we seem to have only 150,000 people. How do you think His Majesty won this time? Which knight made the greatest contribution?" A female family member was full of curiosity. asked.
Since ancient times, a hero deserves a beauty. In the stories of the bards, the heroic knight is powerful and handsome, riding a white horse to fight in the battlefield, wielding a long sword to kill the enemy. May I ask which young girl would not yearn for it?
Olenna boasted with her head high and her chest high: "Needless to say, my man is known as His Majesty's number one fierce general. This time he must lead the cavalry to break through the enemy's line and turn the tide in the midst of thousands of troops."
Although they are already mothers, in the final analysis, these female relatives are just caged birds, children whose minds have not yet grown up, and it is perfectly normal to compare and brag.
"Haha, don't be ridiculous, your man is also reckless. If there is a war, we still have to rely on my man to plan the strategy." Budd's wife Lidovia mocked.
Siegel likes to talk with his fists, and Bulder likes to talk with his brain. They usually don't deal with each other very well, so the fight has spread to the family.
Of course, it's not malicious, it's basically a joke.
The eyes of the two women were fixed, sparks sparkled in their eyes. At this moment, Graton's wife, Alisa, tugged at their clothes: "Ahem, you two, look ahead."
The two women looked up and saw Irina and Xiludi looking at them quietly, so they quickly lowered their heads guiltily and covered their mouths with lady fans.
Although the circle of noble women seems to be friendly, they usually drink afternoon tea together and attend banquets. The elder sisters are older and the younger sisters are younger, but there is always a clear hierarchy.
Among the most powerful female family members in the Silver Moon Kingdom, the highest ranking is undoubtedly Queen Irina, followed by Xi Ludi and Alicia.
Because of their husbands, one is the head of the new regiment, and the other is the commander-in-chief of the Royal Navy.
In the lower row were Olenna and the others. This time they were arguing about whose man deserved the most credit, which obviously touched a red line.
No matter how great the credit is, it is rare to compare with the king and the commander of the legion?
"Ahem, here we come!" Seeing the triumphant troops approaching, Alicia hurriedly reminded the two girlfriends.
Women's fights can never be shown in front of men, otherwise it will really hurt feelings...
After tidying up her manners, Irina stood in front of all the female relatives and ministers in an impeccable posture, showing the dignity and generosity of the mistress of the kingdom, and welcoming the king's triumphant return.
Seeing Simon from a distance and seeing her husband's gloomy face, she suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.
During the last triumphant return, Simon had the same expression, and that time, Simon brought the news of the death of her father, King Jona.
Ai Ruina quickly looked at the others, and found that they all had gloomy faces, without a hint of a smile, so her heart skipped a beat.
Take a closer look, Harris, Boulder, Alyosha, Galcon, Earl Carmel, these high-level officers are all there, except for Siegel and Gratton.
Judging from the previous messages, Graton stayed at the Yelin River defense line this time to prevent the orcs from counterattacking.
What about ~www.novelbuddy.com~ Siegel...
As the team got closer and closer, seeing their men returning triumphantly, many female relatives cheered, attracting the people on the street and the nobles on the city wall to join in the cheering and applauding, welcoming the triumphant return of the heroes.
The enthusiastic cheers of the people in the capital did not resolve the gloom on the faces of the triumphant team. Among them, Harris and others really didn't know how to face Siegel's family.
But most of the other people are because of the cold face of King Simon, even if they want to respond to the cheers of the people, they dare not.
Everyone knew that the king was in a bad mood, and he still dared to laugh. Was he looking for death?
The triumphant team finally arrived at the city gate. Simon, who had recovered from his superficial injuries, got off his horse, and the others followed suit. The group looked gloomy.
Irena was a little apprehensive, but she still spread her arms and squeezed out a smile: "On behalf of your people, I welcome your return, Your Majesty the King!"
Seeing this, Simon sighed, stepped forward and hugged his wife, and then walked straight to Olenna.
Unable to find her husband, Olenna suddenly felt panic: "Your Majesty the King?"
Simon's expression was gloomy, and he didn't know what to say for a while. At this time, all the words seemed to be pale and powerless. In the end, he could only choke out a sentence: "I'm sorry, Olenna."
"No, it's not true!"
After realizing it, Olenna's face turned pale, and she passed out immediately. Irina hurriedly ran over to hug her, and shouted anxiously: "Doctor, doctor!"
The female relatives who had previously cheered no longer cheered at this moment, and cast sympathetic glances one after another.
In the midst of grief, the triumphant team slowly entered the capital, and the flowers and ribbons arranged everywhere in the city seemed powerless and ironic.
