The Secret Of The Kingdom

The Decree of the King

"Nii-sama, you know? Perhaps no young man would want to marry this broken me." murmured Yukatta lirih.

The brother fell silent, he looked at his sister concerned.

"You know Nii-sama, she's my only hope. Why did Nii-sama punish the father-to-be of my son. Who will marry me?!" yukatta choked.

Hearing Yukatta's words, Yuuren was stunned. The feeling of annoyance and anger so quickly coiled in his heart. "What did you say?!" tanyanya angry.

Yuuren stepped forward and clutched Yukatta's shoulder. His eyes were staring hard at his sister. "Can you say it again? Those annoying words that came out of your mouth? You said br***** guy like he was your only hope?!"

Yukatta trembled in fear seeing his brother wrath, he had never seen Yuuren this angry. He spat as Yuuren's gaze grew sharper on him.

"You're a princess of Yukatta kingdom, you're free to marry who you want. With power. I can marry you to a prince or a King from another kingdom." Yuuren said sharply.

"You're kidding Nii-sama? With my condition already dirty, will they accept me? Even looking them in the eyes I don't dare." Yukatta was honest.

Gaara, feeling sorry for Yukatta, pulled Yuuren away from his sister for a moment. "Control yourself Yuuren." commemorate Gaara.

Yuuren sighed, she closed her eyes to control her emotions. "Remember my words Yukatta, I will find the best husband for my sister" he said in a trembling tone. Yuuren was still holding back emotions.

Ever since Sara's death, Yuuren had turned into a cold figure. Even Gaara behaved like this. He does not blame his best friend. But Yuuren punished himself, in this way. Coupled with Yukatta's problem which made him even more depressed.

He wouldn't feel pain if it wasn't a meaningful person in his life who left, like Hayate for example.

Yuuren smiled obliquely, she looked at her sister's face for a while then called out to eunuch Han. "Call General Aoki Shikamaru here."

"Okay, your honor." Eunuch Han left, carrying out the orders of his king.

The red-haired man looked at his best friend full of probing. "Yuuren, what are you planning this time?"

Yuuren smiled. "I will do my duty as a king" he said, staring at Yukatta.

"So why is he looking at me like that? Is he going to punish me?" ask Yukatta in heart.

A few minutes later, Eunuch Han returned with General Aoki Shikamaru, along with the previous King as well as Suri's mother. They entered the Yuuren residence.

Yuuren took a breath, seeing that everyone she was waiting for had already gathered. Including both senses. "I have gathered you here not without reason, it is time for me to carry out my duties as a good brother and king." Yuuren looked at her sister who was now agitated.

"I am passing down the marriage decree to Princess Yukatta and General Aoki Shikamaru" Yuuren said in a stern tone.

Raido and Kurenai are surprised, why did Yuuren decide on Yukatta's marriage to Shikamaru? What about Hidan?

Yukatta widened his eyes in disbelief. "Nii-sama?" Yukatta wanted to reject it, however.

Honestly, the man in the pineapple pigtail was surprised by the decision of the king. However Shikamaru was still able to keep his expression. "Thank you, my majesty, I accept it" Shikamaru said in his distinctive sloppy tone.

Shikamaru was staring lazily at the royal princess. "Then how else? If your majesty has determined, whatever I will do." not really the answer that Yukatta wanted, but Raido and Kurenai looked at his son objected.

"Yuuren, isn't your sister currently still the fiancee of King Hidan? Why did you pass down the marriage decree to Yukatta and General Shikamaru?" suri Kurenai's mother's question represented everyone present.

The King breathed. "Mother Suri, I am passing down the marriage decree on the basis that I want. As a good sister, I chose General Shikamaru to be the life companion of my sister, daughter Yukatta." Yuuren glanced at her sister for a moment. "Again, Princess Yukatta had already annulled her marriage to King Hidan."

"But Yuuren..." The Queen Mother could not continue her words. He was disappointed in the king. He also came out of the king's house. Seeing his wife gone, the previous king followed him.

Everyone left there fell silent, suddenly Yukatta approached the older brother. "Why did Nii-sama protect me?" tanyanya did not understand. Though, Yuuren could have exposed his disgrace. But the brother was silent and made their mother even disappointed in her son.

Yuuren smiled knot. "Why? Of course you're my brother, my family, even if you're being bad. I as a family will not reveal your disgrace just like that. Therefore, marry Shikamaru. And if it's true, in your stomach is the life of that man. You'll be sent to a remote village, where no one knows you. Before the baby is born, you can't go back to the kingdom." she said at length.

Yukatta was speechless hearing the words from Yuuren. "I mean Nii-sama, am I exiled?" tanyanya wasn't sure.

The king turned around, not wanting to see his brother's sad face. He must be firm, just consider this a light punishment for his sister.

"It's lighter, isn't it? Than you would be considered a traitor. And you'll be seen as conspiring with Hayate's killer."

Neither Gaara nor Yukatta thought far to get there.

Yukatta sighed, he gave up and decided to accept the punishment from his brother. "Alright, I accept the marriage decree from you Your Majesty" he said firmly. Of course, Yukatta thought back to what reason Yuuren had sent him into seclusion. He does not want to be imprisoned, especially in a two-body situation.

They smiled with relief, finally the matter of Yukatta had ended. Tomorrow they are getting married, Yuuren deliberately speeds up Yukatta's marriage. In order not to happen unwanted things.

After the departure of Shikamaru and Yukatta, Yuuren sat in his chair. The girl squinted at her thin temple that felt dizzy. "I didn't expect, being a King was so dizzying."

His words were able to make the red-haired man smile amusedly. "So you gave up? And let the throne be taken by your uncle?" asked Gaara in a joking tone.

Instantly Yuuren pleaded not to accept him. "What about the fate of my people if he becomes king? I really don't imagine that I can either."

Gaara couldn't help but laugh this time. But the red-haired man was grateful, his best friend had returned to the way he was. "I hope you're not cold to me anymore" he said sincerely.

The king turned his face. "Sorry Gaara, I didn't mean to antagonize you."

"Well I know, we both don't want him to go. But if we are too late in grief, He will not feel calm there either." Gaara exclaimed.

Gaara is right, I can't keep blaming myself and not let him go. But still, this heart is disappointed. Why did Kami-sama so quickly take it from me, Yuuren said in her heart.

The red-haired man approached his best friend. "You better think of a way, so that the gray man doesn't get mad at you because his bride-to-be is married to another man."

Yuuren looked at her best friend irritatedly. "You have to help me think about this."

"Hey, why am I involved?!" peekik Gaara did not accept.
