Chapter 240: Returning to the Capital

One month later,

The whole capital was in uproar. Today was a day of many occasions. The most important of which was the coronation ceremony of the new king. The news that the king had died in battle had spread like wildfire within the kingdom, and the crown prince was named the next king almost immediately, with no dissent from any noble.

Liu Feng was expecting a few problems from the duke who’s son he had killed, but it was apparent that no one dared to question royalty, especially when he was about to be king.

Liu Feng’s power was already cemented. After the war was concluded, the whole army unanimously agreed to follow Liu Feng’s orders. After all, why wouldn’t they? He was the reason why the war was one with very few casualties. And, the addition of a whole dragon tribe also helped to establish Liu Feng as a premier presence in the landscape.

Inside the palace, however, the story was completely different.

“I told you, grandfather. I do not need you to be my prime minister. Do not worry. Me putting of responsibility to you will only decrease my popularity, and my power will diminish. That will only create more problems. I promise that I will put you in the loop of every decision that I make.” Liu Feng said.

“You didn’t tell me about that alliance that you made. That was the most important decision made in the last decade, and you did it on a whim.” an old voice came from the other side.

“I am getting betrothed to his daughter. Of course there is going to be an alliance. We also fought a war together. What do you expect grandfather?” Liu Feng was on his wit’s ends.

Ever since he was back in the palace, his grandfather was always behind him. It was like he was a toddler, and his grandfather was afraid to do anything wrong.

“Do you think, I, the great Liu Zhen, would not know that? Of course I knew that. But you didn’t tell me that, and now we are forced to sign an agreement and everything.” Liu Feng’s grandfather said.

“Who said anything about an agreement? I know that you are angry about the whole problem with the Glade territory dispute, but both the kings know that the council will have more Aegonian people than others. We are the reason that the war had been won after all.” Liu Feng said.

“I still cannot believe that the child went to war. And he went to the front lines. Why he has is beyond. He had so much of his life ahead of him.” Liu Zhen sighed.

“Grandfather, I always wanted to ask you, did father ever have any siblings?” Liu Feng suddenly asked.

“If your father was here, then he would have stopped me. But you are the king now. You are going to find out anyways. Your father’s path to the crown was filled with blood. That is the sole reason that you do not have a sibling as of yet. Because your father did not want you to go through the same pain of fighting your own brothers.” Liu Zhen said with a low tone.

Liu Feng chuckled helplessly. He then looked outside a window towards the city. It was the start of the day, and it was meant to be an auspicious one.

“I will go meet mother. I am sure that she must be needing company at such a time.” Liu Feng said as he left Liu Zhen alone

Liu Zhen also looked out the window.

“There is so much that I need to tell him, Liu Man. So much that you wanted me to keep a secret. But you are not here anymore, and that means that this child is forced to listen to the cruel truth that will make him look at you with disgust. I am sorry.” Liu Zhen said with a solemn tone to himself.

Liu Feng was in a brightly lit room, but the atmosphere was anything but. Liu Feng’s mother, Bai Daiyu, was sitting on the bed. She looked lifeless as she looked down at a picture in her hands. Liu Man stood there majestically with his sword, the same one which he had pierced Liu Feng with.

“Mother. I hope that you are doing well.” Liu Feng said with a silent voice.

“He left me too early. I told him that all of this was unnecessary. But he told me that our win was guaranteed and that the demons wouldn’t stand a chance.” Bai Daiyu sobbed.

“I still don’t know where that vile demon popped out of. I thought that all of the demons in the vicinity were dead, but it seemed that one of them acted like it was dead, and stabbed father. That huge explosion did not even leave a body for us. I hate the heavens that allowed such a thing to happen, but such is fate.” Liu Feng started weaving a tale.

“Sometimes, I wonder why you speak like you are so old. I wonder what Liu Man taught you. Feng’er. You are going to become the king now. You are going to replace Liu Man. Become a good king like he was. Be loved by the citizens.” Bai Daiyu said.

“I want you to be there with me, mother. This will not be possible without you. I have arranged for a few maids to dress you. But mother, this will not be complete without you. I need you to hand me father’s legacy, or it just will not be complete.” Liu Feng said, kneeling down.

“I heard rumors that you were also being betrothed to the elvan princess?” Bai Daiyu said.

“I wanted to bring her to you, but you were grieving, and I did not wish to disturb you.” Liu Feng said.

“I will come. I want to see who Feng’er will be marrying.” Bai Daiyu laughed. Her sorrowful face was gone, and a smile replaced it.
