The prince died by the assassin's knife, but what is puzzling is that the assassin was originally locked up in death row, and he was a prisoner who was about to be killed at the end of autumn, so it was impossible to escape. However, the prison room where the assassin was held that day was inexplicably reduced by half, as if it had just evaporated out of thin air.

After the assassin woke up, he refused to admit that he had killed the prince, but his knife was stuck in the prince's head, and the prince was indeed pierced to death by the knife alive. So in the end, the conviction was still based on the assassin's assassination.

The death of the five princes is said to the outside world that he suddenly died of illness. In fact, only a few people know that his death is very disgraceful. He died in a room of a popular singer-songwriter. At that time, the singer-songwriter was scared to death.

Afterwards, Yaguo's officials arrested the singer and tortured, but they still couldn't ask anything, so that was the end.

After the death of the Fifth Prince, more than a dozen of his wives and concubines quarreled with each other, wanting to divide the family property, and turned the well-groomed Fifth Prince's Mansion into a vegetable market.

In this way, despite many doubts, the two most powerful heirs to the throne that returned to Ya Kingdom are dead.

The second prince and the Hachioji became the new candidates.

The DPRK and China soon split into two camps again, supporting each other's optimistic heirs.

Hachioji is extremely young, so he is more popular with powerful people, because he is easy to control at a young age.

The second prince is already in his 30s after all, and he has not participated in the throne competition before. He knows that he can be mediocre. He can't compete with the elder brother or the fifth brother.

As a result, because of the death of the boss and the fifth, he was pushed to the table all at once.

The same is true for Hachioji. Although he was young, he had to keep in contact with people of various forces.

Royal disputes and crises are full of crises, and they may become losers or even die at any time.

Therefore, Yan Geng had to learn to mature earlier, just to get a chance.

As an IQ 115 who has been appraised by geotechnical technology and currently the top 1% of the human race, Yan Geng is indeed a very smart kid. Under the pressure of survival, he begged his father to invite the best teacher for him to learn all kinds of knowledge.

Although he could not leave Miyagi or go to the academy to study because of his status, he still tried every means to find many history books, from which he learned many experiences and lessons about governing the country and fighting for power.

In order not to attract people's attention, Yan Geng subconsciously pretended to be ignorant and ignorant of the past in front of everyone, making people lose their vigilance towards him.

Even when his mother scolded him, he showed a submissive look, accepting it, but comforting his mother.

After his behavior was seen by King Laoya, he praised him greatly, and even treated his mother much better.

Yan Geng changed himself little by little, as well as the people around him.

At the age of thirteen, he began to try to cultivate cronies, win over powers, and even kept a lot of powerful slaves outside for future use.

The second prince, because he was getting older and older, was too eager for quick success and quick gain, and acted impatiently, but gradually became unhappy with King Laoya.

In the end, in the 97th year after the founding of Yaguo, the second prince Li Ling was so stunned that he did the task of sending someone to start with the eighth brother.

Fortunately, Yan Geng had guards with strong martial arts, which prevented the assassination.

And this even touched the scales of Laoya King, after all, his favorite eldest son died in the assassination.

The second prince was banned, and has since lost his eligibility to compete for the throne.

There was a lot of discussion about this matter in the ruling and opposition parties, and some people raised many doubts.

However, Yan Geng did a perfect job, and he was not worried about being discovered.

In the 99th year, the elderly King Ya finally passed the throne to Yan Geng. At this time, Yan Geng was just 25 years old, at the age of Fenghua Zhengmao.

As the King of Cliff, Yan Geng, through his own continuous efforts, has experienced cruel faction struggles, and his current temperament and appearance are no longer what he used to be.

He has a good-looking face, no anger or prestige, and he is really thoughtful and well-employed, and he has a true kingly style.

When he truly took over the throne and officially ascended the throne, everyone couldn't help but be convinced.

On the day of his accession to the throne, the newly appointed King Ya sat on the throne, but his eyes did not stay on the subjects who bowed down below.

He just looked into the distance, looking at the blue clear sky through the hollow window lattice above the palace.

After the enthronement was completed, it was already a month later.

At this time, Yan Geng had time to come to the woods where he used to come when he was a child.

Under his orders, the layout of this woods has remained the same for more than ten years, waiting for the return of the original man.

However, even if he had ascended to the throne and became the most supreme king in the human race, he did not wait for that person.

Looking at the familiar arrangement, Yan Geng seemed to have returned to his childhood again.

Back then, he often stayed alone in this dimly lit grove, sitting on a stone bench in a daze.

When Yan Geng was a child, he was actually a very poor child.

As the youngest child of King Cliff, and the son of an unfavorable concubine, almost no one really loves him except his father. Anyway, he is young and low in status. He is not qualified to inherit the throne at all. The best future is to be an expatriate prince. Among the four princes, he is the least promising.

Even his mother complained when she saw him, even stingy to hug him. From the moment he was born, he was thrown to nurses and slave girls.

"Why do not you speak?"

"Why are you so unpleasant?"

"I blame you!"

The people around him were all saying these things, and gradually, he got used to it.

Only when Father King visits him occasionally can he feel a little warmth, and then the people around him will treat him a little bit better. But he is not the child that the father and king cares most about, just because he is young and pityed.

Until that day comes.

The days he spent with the thief often appeared in his dreams later.

He always remembered the agreement, and sister Kai Pi said that she would come back.

Two years, three years, ... 16 years have passed. He didn't wait for the people he was waiting for.

He looked into the depths of the woods, how hopeful that in the next moment, the figure that will never forget will jump out directly, and then speak to him the words that have been engraved deep in his heart:

"You are so cute, why don't you come with me! This strange thief, I want to take you to a bigger and more beautiful world, so that you don't have to stay alone in this deserted little forest. People are in a daze, okay?"

"OK."

"Okay! Let me call you Xiao Wang Wang~lightnovelpub.net~ Xiao Wang Wang, let's go together!"

"Okay!" Xiao Wangwang replied happily in a tender voice.

"Hehe... Okay, I was really innocent back then..."

Yan Geng muttered nostalgicly.

However, his mood could not return to that pure and innocent moment.

In order to survive, he has dyed his heart black. But even so, he still left a corner of his childhood in the corner of his soul, just to wait for that person's return.

He occasionally revealed his innocence, of course, only in this woods, only when he missed the past.

Yan Geng stayed in the woods for a long time, then closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he had already cleared up his mood, and resumed the state of being incapable of emotions and anger, only belonging to the King of Ya Kingdom.

Yan Geng left the woods blankly. Now, this is already a restricted area, and no one except him is eligible to enter.
