Capítulo 561: Inside the Pavilion
Unlike Yan, there is no need for so many complications to bestow honor, position and power.
The princes of Yan dynasty, and even the warlords and the governors had to watch the Emperor power before they could even dare to confer titles and honour.
That is because there is a central figure authority in Yan.
And this central authority figure has clothed itself under the guise of rituals, theocracy, destiny and many others
Hence, there is prestige.
Hence the Yan dynasty could be revived during the ti of Emperor Guangwu of Yan
And hence, even though the central authority of the Yan dynasty is weak, no warlords dare claim themselves kings.
Because the Jiang family rule Yan for almost four hundred years. There is prestige to that na
Not to ntion, the brainwashing of successive rulers and the manipulation of public opinion for four hundred years
To break all of this is not easy.
Now, the Yan dynasty is in decline but there is still many loyalists.
Murong Muhoba believe, if the decline could not be stopped, when the heroes of today age in a few decades and only the second generation is born, then the fall of Yan would be complete
Because at that ti, all the loyalist would be dead. And a new era would usher for the land of the Central Plains of Xun.
In the Great Steppe, there isn’t such prestige or a person that commanded such prestige.
There is no central authority and there is no family that have created a dynasty
The ancient Steppe empire has long been forgotten and only in the stories around the fireplace, would these figures in ancient past would be retold.
The family of those emperors of the Steppe has long been lost to history.
A feat that is harder to preserve when they migrated from one place to another.
As for the current present, there is no person, powerful enough to stop and suppress Aeryon from declaring such a thing and conferring titles and honour.
Of course, just because there is no central authority, it doesn’t an any chief could just confer titles, position and honors that easily
Because to do that, one must have enough power. If not, you are just building a castle in the sand and everything is useless
Aeryon has the ability and the capacity to do it. But even amidst this good news, Murong Muhoba rembers what Aeryon had said. So, his eyes is focused on Aeryon
For a mont he is hesitating in his heart. Everyone right now have their own thoughts and ideas
But probably no one could imagine that Murong Muhoba, this person who is always quiet and go along with everyone have such complicated thoughts.
This kind of person is very scheming. And very dangerous. Appearing harmless, but when they attack, they would leave you with no way out.
He looks at Aeryon and then steeling the courage in his heart, he ask
“Kan, what about Dama?” the mont this question was asked, the tent suddenly fell into silence.
So frowned. Those who frowned understood.
But they forgotten because of the excitent for the future
So warriors was late in understanding and did not understand why Murong Muhoba ask this question
It took them so tis to rember about Qoridai. And what it ans for the Korun tribe and what it ans for their tribe, Brolgadhr and so tribes mber also frowned.
It did not only ans changes to the Brolgadhr tribe, it would also an changes to the Esbizuk tribe.
“yes, about the Esbizuk tribe?” Another ask, looking at the Kan.
Aeryon look at his n and nodded
“I know what you are worried about. Do not worry. Dama would not act”
So of those who is brighter than others could only frown.
But since the Kan said, they do not need to worry, they would trust the Kan
Aeryon did not explain much and the others did not ask.
The stare that Aeryon gave them is enough to tell them not to question him again. There are tis when you could question him and there are ti when you could not
And this is the ti when you could not and must not question him. He would not allow it.
Even Murong Muhoba who ask this question nodded, and retreated and did not ask any more question
Aeryon look at Murong Mohuba and his eyes narrowed.
Murong Muhoba after asking this question did not ask any other question and participated the eting with minimal presence.
But Aeryon notice that every once in a while, that Murong Muhoba would look toward Tuoba He.
And his eyes narrowed again
But then Aeryon ignores this and he talk about what they should do and after a while the eting was finished.
The commander that got their task is ready to do it and they ride their horses out
Aeryon rides back to the city and enter his palace.
The summoning order was sent out
Summoning Ashana Angah to the palace, three riders departed from the palace to invite Ashana Angah into the Palace
An hour later, Ashana Angah enters the palace with a friend. A weird strange man wearing a mask.
And half an hour later, Ashana Angah co out of the palace alone. The weird strange man is no longer accompanying him
And in the Palace, near the Katuna residence, there is a room that is now occupied by the weird strange man.
And then when the sun co overhead, the morning sun replaced by the hot scorching sun of the afternoon, Mayeux was summoned to the palace
Mayeux ca to the palace and was quickly hoisted away to a pavilion
Today, so matters need to be clarified, and so matters need to be ended
…
The sound of the gentle lapping of water.
That is the first sound that caught Mayeux ears when he enter this area of the pavilion.
“It has beco expanded” he thought to himself.
And then, like the sound cos all at once, Mayeux heard the sound of the birds, the frogs and toads and the buzzing of insects
“Aeryon really made sure this place beco even more grander than before” the architecture which isolate the sound from outside the pavilion and inside the pavilion.
Mayeux is also quite adept in architecture but his specialties is more on war machines instead of house architecture.
Or, maybe, he is just too absorbed in his own thinking that he did not actually hear anything before
Whoosh!
The wind passes him by, a gentle rustling that made the ends of his robe to flutters a bit, the leaves of nearby trees rustle
There is more trees planted here. And it is on these trees certain birds would perch itself.
A few steps forward and then he sees that person figure, his head looking in the distance, only his back could be seen
This is the newly built pavilion. It is the sa place where Aeryon and his wife fought against each other
Mayeux could not help but smiles bitterly. Aeryon chooses this place to et him. There must be so aning to that.
Mayeux is not afraid of being punished. And he would not defend himself if Aeryon wanted to punish him
He is just disappointed that he failed at the last mont. Even now, he did not think he was wrong. Ayera is a danger and more burden to Aeryon.
This danger is not physical. Ayera is a vindictive woman. If this regi could be established, then Ayera would beco queen.
There is nothing wrong with that. But he fears for the future. Of course, one might evens ay he is planning too far and things of the future could not be controlled.
Aeryon was standing inside a newly built pavilion. Mayeux saw the back of Aeryon and his narrows.
He closes his eyes for a few second and takes a deep breath. When he was three steps near Aeryon, a voice startles him
“you’re here” Aeryon speaks to him without even looking at him
He halted for a mont. There is silence between them
“Stand beside ” Aeryon suddenly said.
If it was any other man in the tribe, hearing Aeryon ask for the honour of standing beside him, that person would be filled with fear.
What does it an to stand beside the Kan?
Do you want to usurps the position of the Kan? Is the Kan suspecting you of sothing? Or is the Kan about to trap you and coerce you with morality?
The higher the position, the higher the intrigue
But Mayeux, almost like he didn’t understand such complications, walks and stand beside Aeryon like it was the most natural thing to do
Other than Belarion, he is the only one who dares to do so.
But there is a difference.
If it was Belarion, Aeryon would not think too much of him.
Belarion relationship with him is like a devoted brother and they both would sacrifice each other lives for the others
This kind of brotherhood is rare and Aeryon very much cherished it and Belarion action would only serve to shows their closeness that they did not need to think of such intrigue’s plots and sches
As for Mayeux, it was different.
