Chapter 255 Mattia
Kong Yiche sat at his desk, his gaze deep and thoughtful.
Since he can't marry the woman he desires, it doesn't matter who he's with.
Thinking of her father's words, Miss Daisy is now much more valuable, after all, her father, the Regent, is currently enjoying unparalleled power.
The royal family is in decline. The king sitting on the throne now is too young. He was raised by the regent from childhood and has lost the chance to become a venomous snake or a ferocious beast. He is nothing more than a fat and disgusting maggot.
The pathetic maggot, in order to retain his throne, shamelessly asked to marry the regent's beloved daughter.
The regent probably wanted to kill him.
Let him solve the Regent's urgent problem. It will also serve as a way to express the Father's attitude.
"What did you say?" The young emperor jumped out of bed in a frenzy, stepping on a fruit that he had carelessly tossed on the ground, juice spilling everywhere, but he didn't care at all.
A half-empty bottle of wine lay spilled on the bedside table, and the bed and floor were covered in blood-like stains of the wine.
His dark green hair was piled haphazardly on his head and shoulders, as thick as seaweed, yet utterly devoid of beauty. His clothes were disheveled; it was astonishing that a ruler of a nation could be so unkempt.
The guard kept his head down, pretending not to see the naked woman huddled under the covers on the bed.
He was unkempt and also licentious and shameless.
The woman in the bed was even his mother's former maid.
"Are you kidding me?! Has everyone rebelled? What is that old scoundrel Kong family up to? The whole country knows I'm asking to marry Daisy as my queen, and he turns around and lets his son interfere!" The young King Mattia of the Forest Empire was so angry that his face turned red.
"Your Majesty, it is said that Miss Daisy admires Commander Kong, and therefore took the initiative to invite him..." the guard said dryly.
After Mattia came of age and ascended the throne, he always felt that everyone wanted to kill him, and he trusted no one except his regent, who was like a teacher and father to him. So he followed the regent's instructions and replaced all his servants with guards.
It seemed that this would give him a greater sense of security.
Except for the maid.
His mother died early, leaving behind a maid who cared for him like a mother. Before he even came of age, she ended up taking care of him in bed, and he couldn't live without her.
When the regent learned of this, unlike others who condemned and ridiculed him for his immoral and debauched behavior, he comforted him, saying that as the ruler of a country, whatever he wanted should be granted.
Therefore, he was always very grateful to him and relied on him a lot.
But now he wants his daughter to be queen, so why can't that be?!
"Liar! They're all liars!" Mattia screamed in agony, clutching her hair. "I need to see the Regent! Bring that liar here right now!"
He rushed forward and grabbed the guard by the collar: "Give me the wine! Get me the wine right now!"
When the regent received the message and rushed over, he saw the emperor, whom he had raised and simultaneously ruined, sitting on the high windowsill of the tower, with countless empty wine bottles piled up at his feet.
He was obese and filthy, emanating a foul stench of alcohol and some other unpleasant odor.
The regent's brow twitched; he wished he could kick him out of the window himself and end it all.
But it's not the right time yet; the timing isn't right, and he has no legitimate reason to act.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing there! Come down quickly, it's dangerous!" the Regent gently admonished. He was dressed in a green-to-black ceremonial robe, with countless dazzling jewels adorning his belt. His hair was cut very short, and he looked kind and humble.
Mattia turned to look at him, his eyes brimming with tears, filled with broken madness. He cried and asked, "Didn't you always consider yourself my father? Weren't you the only one in the world who was good to me? Don't you want me anymore?"
Regent Tyne scoffed inwardly, but outwardly feigned incomprehension: "My dear Your Majesty, why would you say such a thing? Who dares to sow discord between us?"
"Yes! Someone is stirring things up, it's those two traitors from the Kong family, the old and the young! Go and kill them, hurry! I'll give you a secret decree, kill Kong Yiche immediately!" The young emperor jumped off the windowsill with a whoosh, his fat body appearing incredibly agile at this moment.
He rushed up to Tyne, and a stench so foul it nearly made Tyne vomit.
"Um... what's wrong with the Kong family? Your Majesty, the Kong family has rendered meritorious service to the Forest Empire, not to mention that the father and son are both commanders now, firmly holding military power. Why do you want to go against them?" Tyne's eyes flickered, his words full of inducement, completely disregarding the fact that Kong Yiche was his preferred son-in-law.
"What merit for protecting the country! I only acknowledge your great kindness to me and the royal family. What are the Kong family anyway!" Mattia cursed.
"That shameless little vixen from the Kong family actually seduced your daughter, the noble and beautiful Daisy!"
He grabbed Tyne's hand, completely unaware of Tyne's sudden attempt to pull away, and held it firmly, saying earnestly, "Don't you want to be my real father? Give me Daisy in marriage! Let her enter the palace now, we can cultivate our relationship first, and then we can successfully become partners at next year's Couples' Conference!"
"What do you think?! You should agree, right?" Mattis looked at Tyne with fervor, his eyes filled with admiration and worship.
"Daiss is my dream girl, please marry her to me! I beg you!"
Tyne felt disgusted, as if he had swallowed a fly. The guy in front of him, with his bloated belly and brain full of excrement, had grown into a piece of trash and garbage just as he had wished, yet he dared to have fantasies about Daisy.
They must be tired of living.
He looked down at the hands that were holding him; they were greasy and pale, covered with some dried, colored liquid, and their fingernails were full of black grime.
too disgusting.
But his tone softened even more: "I had only heard that you seemed to have feelings for Daisy, but I didn't expect you to be serious."
"But Commander Kong has already invited Daisy to the banquet at the palace, and we have already agreed, so it wouldn't be good to go back on our word."
"Besides, you should understand me. The Kong family is comparable to half an empire. I'm winning them over to consolidate your power. Once you have them on your side, you won't have to worry about them having any rebellious intentions." His words were full of goodwill.
“Oh no! How can we sacrifice Daisy’s happiness! Daisy is innocent! She should be the queen! Not marry that good-for-nothing scoundrel from the Kong family!” Mattia was initially moved, but then vehemently objected.
"Why bother trying to win them over? I am the king, and you are the regent. Why don't we just kill them and completely destroy the Kong family?"
Tyne chuckled softly: "My Majesty, you are truly the purest person in the world! It's a pity that politics cannot be based entirely on barbarity and directness; the whole world is watching. The Kong family enjoys extremely high prestige among the people and in the army. If you openly oppose them like this, be careful that you don't lose your throne."
"You should know that I am the only one in the world who is wholeheartedly thinking of you."
