Chapter 214 Cu Chulainn’s Request
Chapter 214 Cu Chulainn’s Request
Fergus knew that Cu Chulainn himself had already believed that he was the child of the God of Light, and he expected that these words would inevitably arouse his suspicion and anger, thinking that he was smearing him.
But even so, he still chose to reveal the secret that had been in his heart for many years.
He didn't want Conchieber's lies to hurt more people, and for his proud adopted son to recognize a thief as his father.
But the secret that he had been planning for a long time did not get the reaction he imagined.
Fergus looked at the furious Cú Chulainn at a loss. He didn't know why the latter suddenly became so angry.
"What are you"
Jiang Lu yawned on the side and began to fan the flames: "If you want to be more open-minded, at least you know it earlier than the public."
"What if everyone knows about it?" Cu Chulainn said fiercely: "This will be an unprecedented scandal for the royal family. If irrelevant people really find out, I swear I will kill everyone and silence them!"
"Child." Jiang Lu sighed: "This is not funny."
"I'm not kidding." Cu Chulainn complained.
"Okay." Jiang Lu didn't comment, turned around and asked Fergus: "So are you satisfied now? Conchiebo has been defeated, and there is no need to continue the war. I think everyone You can sit down and have a good talk so that everyone can get a satisfactory result. ”
Hearing this, Cu Chulainn also calmed down and echoed sternly: "Yes, Fergus, peace is the most important thing."
"This is indeed beyond my expectation."
Fergus glanced at Conchieber with a complicated expression.
He came with the determination of revenge.
With the pain of losing his son and the shame of the destruction of his family, he took the initiative to ask Queen Maeve of the Kingdom of Connaught to lead an army to attack Conchierb.
But he didn't expect that before he even exerted his strength, his enemy would already look like this.
This gave him a feeling of powerlessness as if he had punched cotton.
It's like a person who has carried a blood feud, and after endless suffering and lonely practice, finally gained powerful strength. But when he came out to seek revenge, he found that the world had changed a long time ago, and his former enemies had long since died of old age.
Such an ending could not bring Fergus the pleasure of revenge at all. Even when he saw the miserable condition of Conchieber, the thought "It seems that there is no special feeling seeing him in such misery" appeared in his mind. .
This made him a little confused and filled with an inexplicable sense of loss.
The long-standing goal was accomplished in such a hasty manner, and I felt an indescribable feeling of emptiness in my heart.
“Nobody wants to go to war if they can help it.
It was only because Conchieber's tyranny and tyranny had long angered the surrounding kingdoms, and they all wanted this guy to die, that they united to launch a war.
But now that this is the case, I think they might also stop. "
Fergus looked at Cu Chulainn and said slowly:
"And because of you, your heroic performance on the battlefield has long conquered the warriors of Connaught, and they have regarded it as an honor to fight with you or be killed by you.
Now, let me tell you the truth. In fact, before I came, Queen Maeve gave me a condition as a bottom line, that is, if you no longer resist, she is willing to betroth her daughter to you. I will personally support you to become the king of Ulster, and then the two countries will form a permanent alliance.
It’s just that I know that such conditions are far from enough to make you lose your loyalty to Ulster and Conchieber, nor can it make you give up your determination to fight. It will only anger you more, so I didn’t say anything.
But this is enough to prove how much Queen Maeve values you.
So I think if you are willing to go back with me and meet Queen Maeve as a king, it shouldn't be difficult to restore peace. "
"Me?" Cu Chulainn was stunned: "But I am not the new king."
"Huh?" Fergus was also stunned: "Then who is the new king?"
"My mother."
"Dectel?" Fergus raised his voice unconsciously: "Wasn't she depressed early on?"
"It has been cured a long time ago." Jiang Lu smiled slightly: "With the help of my gynecological expert, there is no disease that cannot be cured. What is depression? It is just that I have not tasted the sweetness of love."
"Hiss" Fergus's first reaction was that Jiang Lu was a doctor: "Wait a minute, tell me, who are you? Why does it sound like Cu Chulainn and Dectel have received a lot of help from you? ?”
Jiang Lu smiled and said nothing, and winked at Cu Chulainn: "Say."
"Just someone you can trust." Cu Chulainn said vaguely.
"Can you trust him?" Fergus repeated suspiciously. In his opinion, it was not an exaggeration to say that Cu Chulainn obeyed Jiang Lu's words.
"This." Cu Chulainn looked embarrassed: "How can I say this?"
"Okay, let me say it then." Jiang Lu sighed: "Actually, I am his stepfather."
"Oh, stepfather, I'm his adoptive father, so it's quite fate. Wait, who are you?!" Fergus, who subconsciously responded, suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Yes." Cu Chulainn was about to burst into tears: "Maybe you don't believe it. In fact, I don't want to believe it either, but he is indeed my stepfather now."
The official certification from Cuchulain made Fergus gasp.
Stepfather!
This is a more advanced existence than the adoptive father!
An adoptive father can only be responsible for raising a child, but a stepfather is a senior father who can not only raise a child, but also be like the child's biological mother!
Its gold content may be only inferior to that of his biological father.
But now, the child's biological father, Conchie Erb, has been killed. In other words, the man in front of him is now the highest-level father!
Even Fergus, the adoptive father who raised Cu Chulainn, had to shy away from his stepfather Jiang Lu and shunned the glory of ethics.
Although he was an adoptive father, the father-son relationship between him and Cu Chulainn was higher than that between him and Conchieber, his biological father who kept his real name secret. This was something he had always been proud of.
But overnight, everything changed.
Fergus is in Connaught, and Jiang Lu is by Cu Chulain's side. Now he has become a more advanced father. As time goes by, the father-son affinity between him and Cu Chulain will inevitably change from the first to the first. Dropped to second place on the list.
How could he endure this?
After pondering for a moment, Fergus thought: "In that case, you are not the king now, so you don't have to worry so much.
I have an idea. In order to ensure that there will be no more wars in the future, I think Queen Maeve’s suggestion is not a bad idea. Maybe you can really marry the Kingdom of Connaught.
An alliance between the two countries will become an unprecedentedly powerful force on the Irish mainland. By then, no one, organization or kingdom will threaten Ulster. "
"This is inappropriate." Cu Chulainn shook his head subconsciously.
"Why is it inappropriate?"
Fergus said sternly:
"If you don't do this, I can guarantee that Connaught will withdraw its troops, but can you guarantee that the other two kingdoms will withdraw their troops?
Can you guarantee that they won't have other thoughts after learning about Conchieber's downfall?
Without Maeve's support, Ulster now needs to lift the curse before it can stop its power again. When the time comes, there will be an invasion by foreign enemies, internal and external troubles, what should you do? "
"It seems to make sense." Cu Chulainn fell into deep thought.
And Fergus, who knew his thoughts well, struck while the iron was hot: "Think about it, what you are deciding now is the future of Ulster. Any hasty decision you make may lead to Ulster's prosperity, but it may also Are you really willing to risk Ulster and put the people in danger with your haste? "Of course not," Cu Chulainn replied seriously.
But he was led by Fergus, but Jiang Lu saw the clues.
I always feel like this guy is eager to take Cu Chulainn away.
Obviously just now, you acted like I know you, and I can’t possibly insult you with Maeve’s sugar-coated bullets and honey traps, but now I’m anxious to promote a marriage.
What went wrong?
It seems that his attitude changed after he learned that I was his stepfather.
But why?
Jiang Lu suddenly thought of something and had a strange look on his face.
Hmm. Could it be that you want to prove that he is more important to Cu Chulainn than me by taking care of Cu Chulainn's life events?
No way. Not that much
But what Fergus said next confirmed Jiang Lu's suspicion that he even thought was outrageous.
"If everything goes well, I will help you organize your wedding in Connaught. Then I will invite your relatives and friends to watch the ceremony. You don't have to worry about anything."
"Hiss" Jiang Lu also took a breath of cold air.
oh! This damn desire to win!
Cu Chulainn, who was not aware of this secret contest, looked at Jiang Lu: "Is this appropriate? Do I have to discuss it with my mother?"
"If I say it's suitable, it must be suitable." Fergus said disdainfully: "And what are you asking him to do? You are such an old man, can't you even decide your own marriage?"
Hearing these gunpowder words, no matter how dull Cu Chulainn was, he felt that something was wrong, but he still didn't understand why it was like this.
This inexplicable and abstract situation made Jiang Lu feel a little funny.
Jiang Lu suppressed his smile and echoed: "Yes, you can decide for yourself, and your mother is still resting now. After all, she has experienced so many big things and is already exhausted, so you can just decide for yourself."
Fergus was slightly surprised by this non-competition, but he still stubbornly nodded gently to Jiang Lu, as if he recognized his understanding.
And Cu Chulainn may also realize that the current atmosphere is actually very strange.
If you think about it carefully, including Conchi Erb, there are four people present, three of whom are his fathers, two living fathers and one zombie father. Moreover, the three fathers are from different camps, and the relationship is very complicated.
Seeing that he could no longer let his two living fathers stay together, Cu Chulainn had no choice but to agree:
"In that case, I will go there as an envoy to have a look. It would be best if we could form an alliance with Connaught."
"Well, go ahead. I will take good care of your mother. Don't worry." Jiang Lu agreed easily.
It was so easy that Fergus was secretly stunned.
With such a simple mind, compared to me, he is simply an irresponsible and unqualified father!
With such joy, Fergus took Cu Chulainn and left Dectel's manor.
Jiang Lu, on the other hand, stood on the window sill on the second floor and watched the two of them go away, without any disturbance in his heart, and even wanted to laugh a little.
This is so funny, who is a good man who acts as a stepfather for the sake of his children?
Aren't they all going to the mother of the child?
Who will send it to you to fight for custody? Neuropathy!
Several days passed in a flash.
Jiang Lu lived a very leisurely life these days. His daily life consisted of eating, sleeping and playing Doudou until Dectel collapsed from being overwhelmed and then went to sleep to rest.
Just changing the sheets, quilts and carpets every day almost makes the maid unable to stand upright from exhaustion.
In addition, I will observe the progress of the spiritual realm strategy every day.
It can only be said that he is worthy of someone who has been in the palace for so many years. Although Addison has been serving as a mascot-like sinecure, he has always been able to go smoothly for so many years and still has strength. Jiang Lu only arranged the direction and results. He carried out everything smoothly without any hesitation.
It had only been a few days, but the mission of using Conchieber's blood to lift everyone's curse was almost complete.
He was about to leave, but on this day, Dectel suddenly received an invitation from Connaught.
Cu Chulainn was getting married and invited Dectel and Jiang Lu as well as his friends and comrades to attend his wedding ceremony.
Jiang Lu informed Ghost Faced Fox and Heavy Cannon of the news.
These days, apart from waiting for Addison to help them complete the task, they were just wandering around, which was very boring. Once the total time should be enough, they decided to join in the fun.
In this way, although Dectel kept complaining that as the future king, how could Cu Chulainn marry the princess in another country, she still led people to select countless treasures and set off to Kannuo in a grand way. special.
Jiang Lu soon met Cu Chulainn again, although he didn't expect much from it.
But what makes Jiang Lu feel strange is that Cu Chulainn's face has a lot of melancholy that he has never seen on his face before.
"What happened?" Jiang Lu asked.
Cu Chulainn sighed: "Maeve is a woman who is good at scheming. I have to admit that I am good at fighting, but when it comes to how to deal with people and how to govern a country, I am far inferior to her in these aspects."
"Is it because of this?" Jiang Lu was puzzled.
That's it? Are you depressed because of something so obvious?
"That's not entirely true." Cu Chulainn sighed: "She convinced me, and I didn't know why but I agreed in a daze. But as soon as I agreed to the marriage, I regretted it."
Jiang Lu spread his hands in gloating: "What's the use of regrets? Now that the whole continent knows that Ulster and Connaught are going to marry, is it possible that you can still regret it?"
"It's impossible to go back on my word, but I thought of a way. Maybe I don't have to go back on my word, but I don't have to get married either."
With that said, Cu Chulainn solemnly said to Jiang Lu:
"And perhaps only you can help me with this matter! Stepfather!"
"Huh?" It was the first time Jiang Lu heard Cu Chulainn calling him this, and he got goosebumps for no reason. He suddenly felt that it was a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken. He had no good intentions and subconsciously wanted to refuse.
But before he could refuse, Cu Chulainn revealed his plan.
When Jiang Lu heard the plan, his eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "Are you crazy?!"
"I don't want to either"
Cu Chulainn gritted his teeth: "But I know that this may be my only chance. I have to ask you to help me once."
His attitude was unprecedentedly humble, so humble that Jiang Lu even suspected that he was possessed by a ghost.
Co-author asking you to marry the princess will cost you your life, right? So resistant? Do you even hesitate to show this attitude?
Jiang Lu hesitated to speak for a long time before finally sighing.
"The people in your family are really weird."
into the night.
According to the agreement, Jiang Lu came to a garden in the palace, which was also in front of the palace of the princess who was to marry Cu Chulainn.
"Damn it. You asked me to do this kind of thing, and you said I'm good at it. It's true."
While complaining, Jiang Lu knocked on the princess's door.
"Baby~guess who I am~"
good night!
