Chapter 125

The ward was eerily quiet.

Ludwig's speech was too explosive, and Xia Yan couldn't control his expression. His face was full of question marks, and he almost blurted out "Are you okay?" Fortunately, his remaining rationality held his mouth.

He pretended to be humiliated: "Are you mocking me?"

Everyone knew that what he said at the beginning was obviously angry.

In a constitutional monarchy, as the crown prince, Ludwig is second to none. Although the Xia family is powerful and has a high status, it can never be compared with the royal family.

The young man, who has always been arrogant and indifferent, had a faint red face because of anger. The reversal of status made his golden pupils look a little fragile. The contrast before and after was enough to make anyone's blood boil.

Grover's heart was ablaze.

Ludwig turned his body to block Grover's sight. In the young man's surprised eyes, he gave his chips directly: "I will make you king."

???

What nonsense are you talking about?

Facing the young man's incredible expression, he slowly took the young man's right hand, lowered his head, and kissed his fingertips loyally: "As long as you are willing to marry me, I will be your most loyal dog."

His eyes were bold and hot, full of love, willing to pay any price to exchange for the young man's favor.

Xia Yan's eyes wandered, and his heart collapsed.

[Ahhh!!! What's wrong with the protagonist? I want to log off!!!]

System... System Cangsang lit a cigarette: [Forget it, I'm used to it. 】

【……】

The young man didn't reply for a long time. Ludwig's brows showed a little more anxiety. This hesitation made him keenly aware of something. Before his brain could react, his subconscious had made a decision and spoke without authorization: "You once said that profit comes first. What I can provide you is far more than Ian Hyde."

Since you were able to associate with the pirates for profit, why reject me now?

Xia Yan understood his subconscious words.

Don't ask, asking is despair.

Who knew that the words he said to establish his character would eventually become a boomerang and pierce himself! The words of rejection were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it.

Ludwig pretended not to understand the young man's hesitation and made a firm decision: "I will tell my father my decision tonight. You will become the king. I swear."

Such a big thing as the throne was decided so hastily.

Xia Yan: [……]

The system comforted him: [Think of it in a positive way. At least your character's role points have been kept.]

As long as the "salary" is in place, everything will be fine.

The most confused person in the audience was Grover. His eyes kept turning back and forth between the two of them. His expression was sometimes sad and angry, and sometimes clear... After everything settled, he looked at Xia Yan deeply: "So that's it." "

?"

"No wonder you have been so calm all the time, you have been prepared."

Xia Yan: "???" What? Wasn't the three points of pain, five points of loss, and two points of frustration and broken jars that he had played before obvious enough?

Grover: "I lost. I will leave the capital and never set foot here again."

Xia Yan and Ludwig lived in the same dormitory, spending every day together. They must have known each other's true identity for a long time, so when the insect tide occurred, they would save him at all costs.

His efforts were also rewarded.

The other party was willing to give up the throne just to be with Xia Yan, and was willing to be the man behind him. With Xia Yan's scheming and tactics, it was not unfair for him to lose.

Grover took a deep look at Xia Yan for the last time, turned around and left neatly.

Ludwig nodded with satisfaction.

"..."

Xia Yan asked the system weakly: [What did he think of? ]

[……] The system was silent for a moment, [Think of the good side, at least he won't come to disturb you in your love life. 】

Xia Yan: [……]

If you can’t talk, you can shut up, thank you.

*

The whole thing was settled before Xia Yan could react.

I don’t know what reason Ludwig used to convince Clarence and make him willing to make him the crown prince, anyway, the outside world’s response was very good.

The original owner has always maintained a good reputation. After Xia Yan traveled through time, although he did some "bad things", he finally ran towards the insect tide without hesitation, just to rescue his teammates. The behavior moved the audience and shouted that they had blamed him wrongly before.

After that, he killed the worm queen with his own strength, which also showed his strong strength.

The empire admires the strong.

A strong and kind emperor is worthy of their loyalty.

Xia Yan: "……" Save me!!!

No one responded, so he tried to save himself. When his parents came to see him, he said tactfully: "Your Majesty has a biological son, so isn't it inappropriate for me to ascend the throne?"

Xia Jiuqian shook his head: "Since His Majesty has already announced to the whole nation that you are the heir, he will not regret it."

The king also has the dignity of a king, and he will never go back on his word on such a big matter.

"..."

Seeing Xia Yan's strange expression, Xia Jiuqian asked curiously: "You always wanted to be a king, and now you have succeeded, why are you still unhappy?" Xia

Yan put on a false smile and said insincerely: "No, I am very happy."

Xia Jiuqian saw some clues and thought for a moment: "...You don't like Ludwig and don't want to marry him? Do you still like the star thief?"

"..." Xia Yan hesitated, "That's not the case."

What kind of devil's two-choice is this? Ludwig and Ian, of course he is more familiar with Ludwig, but that doesn't mean he wants to get married!!!

"That's good." Xia Jiuqian breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone knows that Xia Yan is going to be engaged to Ludwig. If he regrets it now, it would be like throwing the face of the royal family on the ground and stepping on it hard.

Clarence and Ina, who are full of love and want to compensate their son, will definitely turn into demons and make Xia Yan pay the price at all costs.

Although they have prepared a way to retreat, surviving the pursuit of the royal family is nothing compared to ascending to the throne.

Time passed day by day.

Xia Yan was vaguely engaged to Ludwig, became the crown prince, and was promoted to the third grade. During this period, Ian secretly came to see him through the holographic world.

He looked gloomy, with unwillingness in his eyes: "You chose him, didn't you?"

"..." If I say that he was forced to take the position, do you believe it?

The young man's silence was undoubtedly acquiescence in Ian's eyes.

"Compared to power, I am indeed not as good as him." Ian's face was pale, and he smiled bitterly, "But no matter what, I will do my best to stand by you."

Xia Yan: "???"

Wait! What do you mean?

He watched the other party leave blankly, and subconsciously called: [System? 】

The system looked at the messed up plot and gave up the treatment: [Don't ask me, I don't know either. Anyway, it's only a few years, Clarence can't abdicate so early, just treat it as a vacation. ]

*

The time for soul repair is longer than the system estimated.

In the blink of an eye, Xia Yan has been here for five years. After graduating from the military academy, he and Ludwig went to the border to resist the insect tribe together. The two sides joined hands and achieved excellent results.

At the same time, Clarence felt that the time was about right and decided to abdicate to Xia Yan.

Xia Yan: "..."

The wedding ceremony and the succession ceremony were held on the same day. Xia Yan became king in a daze, and also completed the first wedding in his life, and had a loyal and handsome husband.

Oh! By the way.

Ian joined the Empire. He was so talented that when Clarence succeeded to the throne, he secretly completed some missions and successfully obtained citizenship of the Empire.

As for his pirate group, some of them followed him, and the others were used to being free, so he gave them generous severance pay.

Fortunately, Ian had not taken over the pirate group for long, and he only liked to draw and had plenty of money. He did not need to hijack civilians' spaceships for money, but just lived in them as mobile fortresses, so he was accepted by the Empire.

That's right, God would never choose an evil person to be the pillar of the world.

When Xia Yan got married, Ian, as the new colonel, could not participate because of the mission, so he could only ask someone to send a gift. The red love inlaid on the outside of the white gift box was particularly eye-catching among the pile of gifts.

"..."

The guests appeared calm on the surface, but a storm had already been set off in their hearts.

The 'lover' that Ian mentioned when he was in the military academy is still an unsolved mystery. Now it seems... They secretly observed Ludwig, the bloodline of the previous emperor who voluntarily gave up the throne.

The man wore a white suit and a bow tie, his golden hair softly pressed against his cheeks, his expression was calm, but there was a bit of darkness in his eyes, as if a storm was gathering.

Everyone: "..." Jealous.

Xia Yan: "..."

As the last glimmer of light on the horizon disappeared, night fell.

Deep in the palace, in the spacious and bright emperor's residence, the newlyweds who had just got married today sat opposite each other, the air was filled with the aroma of wine, with an ambiguous and confusing breath.

The young man's fair cheeks were tinged with red, and the wine stained his lips with an alluring watery sheen. The bow tie on his neck had long been torn off, revealing a small section of his collarbone.

Ludwig's eyes fell on the red mole on the collarbone, and his Adam's apple rolled.

He

wanted to kiss him.

He reached out and hugged the young man's thin waist, resting his head on his neck, his hot breath sprayed in the young man's ear, and asked softly: "Can I?"

"Yes."

Xia Yan had already prepared for this matter.

After five years of getting along, it would be impossible to say that Xia Yan had no feelings for him. Maybe it was not deep love, but there was definitely liking.

The always arrogant and cold golden eyes clearly reflected the man's profile.

Ludwig raised his head and said hesitantly, "... Don't you regret it? Ian..." "

Ludwig." He held the man's face, "I chose you."

No matter what the reason was, the ending was already determined, and it was meaningless to look back.

Hearing the young man deny Ian Hyde, the man's lips curled slightly, and he smiled with satisfaction like a winner. In the end... he still got him.
