I.. Am God?-Chapter 101 Han Jianyu
Seeing that they now silently approve, Matthias smiled, "Okay. Then, that is settled. We will travel throughout my territory once I decide to do so."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The people nodded reluctantly.
"Are there any pressing matters regarding the management of the empire?" After a brief period of silence, Matthias asked the people below.
"Your Majesty.." One of the officials spoke, "A messenger from the Tanaka Shogunate of the South was sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to alert us that one of their princes is coming to our territory as an emissary to congratulate us on uniting our land. What shall we do with it?"
"Tanaka Shogunate?" Matthias pondered, "Is there any information about them?" He asked.
"Your Majesty, the Tanaka Shogunate is home to excellent individuals. They are incredible masters of the arts of sabers, bow, and combat. Excluding their expertise, they are also honorable and distinguished individuals who know and respect etiquette even if they are of lowly birth. I have been once in contact with an individual from that land. He was extremely respectful and bases his judgement through a series of methods." The Master of The Mystic Arts and one of the Four Pillars, Sigien Brunhilde, replied respectfully.
"Are they?" Matthias nodded in understanding, "Then, if they are here with good intentions, welcome them with wide open arms, and if they're not, welcome them still. Show them the development of our territory." He said.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The official nodded.
The discussion continued for another ten minutes and after that, Matthias dismissed the officials. He then went to his Imperial Bedroom. Looking at the room closely, Matthias admired the room. The room has a simple layout. Before reaching the bed, one needs to pass through a bead curtain hanging from an arch-shaped room divider. Two chairs are arranged neatly at the right side of the room. A chinese canopy bed is placed at the end of the room, one bedside table at the left and right side of the bed and the chest at the foot of it.
With a color palette of imperial gold, ancient brown wood, bright red, and jade green, the atmosphere inside wasn't as suffocating as other imperial rooms where the feeling of impending doom is always present.
He then went to the chest and opened it. He then remembered that he was so focused with fixing the affairs inside the territory and either stayed inside the throne room or training, he forgot to create clothes for himself, which made him laugh helplessly.
He then proceeded to create his clothes. The clothes were separated into two types; Imperial wear and casual wear.
He then fixed the imperial wear neatly inside the chest and left the casual wear laying on the bed to pick.
He then smiled as he laid his eyes on the one he picked and placed the other clothes neatly with the imperial wear.
He raised the garment that he picked, a clean white and black simple hanfu. To also fit his current style, he made his hair reach the half of his back.
He wore the clothes and tied his hair up using a hair stick made from 1,000 year-old Oriental Ironwood that he planted in Cain, the realm where he planted and nurtured all types of different plants and animals that is rich in God Qi.
The hair stick has dragons and phoenixes engraved on it with the symbol of the sun at its top.
He then looked at himself using his mental energy. He saw a handsome 24-year old looking man with his hair tied on a small bun with long hair cascading down his back. Matthias pondered a little bit and conjured a 22-inch han jian sword and strapped it on his waist.
Matthias then nodded with satisfaction and secretly left the palace and roamed his territory.
He has already planned his identity for the coming journey. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m
His temporary name is Han Jianyu, and his identity is of a military man and a son of a common family. He has already asked Black with his cooperation and informed a couple under the Order of The Black Crow to pretend to be his parents.
He left the capital and rode a horse that was prepared beforehand and traveled to a small town west of the capital.
He then went to a village where his "family" is supposed to live.
"It's been a long time, son!." When he arrived in the village, he was welcomed by two people. One was a middle-aged man with his hair tied in a ponytail, a muscular body and chiseled face, and a 35-year old woman whose face hadn't changed even when time passed and as if she was just a 20-year old woman. Her long, black hair cascaded down her shoulders. It was evident that she was even more beautiful in her early days.
Knowing what they are doing, Matthias smiled, "Yes, Father and Mother. It has been a long time."
The woman's face was filled with joy and held Matthias, "Come, come, come! Let us go back to our home!" She said with heartfelt joy and motherly love.
The man placed his hands on his hips and laughed wholeheartedly, "That's my son Xiao Jianyu! Come!" He shouted.
While walking home, people from the village greeted them. "Is that your son, Little Qiaoyi?" An elderly woman asked.
Matthias' "Mother" nodded sweetly, "Yes, Auntie Shan. This is my son Xiao Jianyu. He has been away for a long time. Before we started to live here, He was taken care of by his uncle in the capital and has been a soldier since he was 15 years old."
"How young! It's been hard on you, Little One." The elderly woman called Auntie Shan patted him with care. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚
"It hasn't been that hard, Auntie Shan." Matthias helplessly nodded.
