return to the throne

As a foreign prince who was married and had no roots, all of Adrian's dignity comes from what Carlos did.The other party can belittle him and treat him coldly, anyway, Adrian has come to Aragon, everything about him is at the mercy of Carlos, even torture and imprison him. He arranged a welcome banquet and was willing to introduce his relatives for him. His approach would allow Adrian to quickly gain a foothold in Aragon, and then gain the support of others.

Adrian couldn't describe what it was like. In the days of exile, he already knew that not everyone would be kind to him. He had experienced betrayal and sacrifice, and many ups and downs added up to compare with him. The past 18 years of his life have been wonderful.He had never tasted the taste of love, but at this moment he couldn't help feeling a little dependent on this man, "Thank you, Carlos."

"You don't need to thank me." Carlos smiled slightly, "I will make you like this place, and your life will be as carefree as Lancaster's, without worrying about anything."

Although it is impossible to know what the other party said, he is not a young and ignorant child, how could he not be troubled by anything, but Adrian still felt a warm current in his heart, Carlos' words represented a kind of promise, Promise him that there will be a place for him here in the future.

This cross-border marriage originally made Adrian a little uneasy, but now he feels that there is nothing wrong with living with this man beside him.

What about Carlos?how does he feel about me

Are you the same as me?

He could feel Carlos' liking for him, but this liking was just a kind of affection, not sublimated to the point of love.The reason why Carlos is so careful with him is because he is now his fiancé.

But Adrian didn't feel any anxiety or fear at the moment.

Maybe it's my luck.He smiled at the thought.

The wedding was scheduled for the night after five days. The reason why this time was vacated was because both of them had to make cumbersome dresses. As early as half a month ago, the entire palace was rushing to make the utensils, tables and chairs for the wedding, which were damaged. All the furniture has been replaced, the dusty rooms have been redecorated, the halls and corridors have been cleaned, and even the armor at the corners has been scrubbed to silvery white. Everyone is working hard to prepare for the king's wedding, just waiting for the wedding day Surprise all the guests.

The newcomers can’t meet for the time being, but it doesn’t affect Carlos’ greetings to Adrian. During this period, Adrian’s two maids, Mei and Ivanka, were arranged by the palace chief Jonson to continue to take care of their prince. The other knights from the black dragon and Ciri, who has just become the prince's attendant, also has a place in the palace.

At this moment, Adrian was listening to Dillick reading aloud his uncle's letter in the study. The letter brought by the falcon within a few days told him that Palinstra was hiding in Lancaster, the capital of the black dragon. He claims to be the King of the North and is about to ascend the throne on Adrian's wedding day.

This is a kind of provocation. After all, Carlos has already announced the marriage of the two to the world. On the day of the blood union of the two kingdoms, the rebels will establish themselves as kings in the country. This is a blatant threat to the two of them.

"Let him mess around." Adrian said calmly. "As long as the church disagrees, his title of king will be removed sooner or later."

"But will the church agree? What if they send someone to canonize it?" Dillick couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"They already stood by when my parents were killed, and they won't just slip into this mess now. If the Illuminati recognizes the establishment of a new kingdom so easily, then other countries will definitely feel disrespected. No country would be willing to enshrine such a vacillating Illuminati religion." Adrian's plain words no longer showed any respect for the God of Illuminati, he nodded his head, let Dillek continued to read the letter.

Dillick continued to read, "I also want to report to you about Princess Emily. Two envoys from the north came to ask for marriage. They are the Sax family of the polar lion and the Chukern family of the woodland swamp. It is the only family that has not been attracted by Pallister, because their positions are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they are also self-sufficient in terms of food storage. Their lords are also very loyal to the previous king-both of them were once King James. Knight, claiming that he would never agree with Pallister's rule. The difference is that Lord Sax wanted Princess Emily to marry his eldest son, 14-year-old Pete Sax, and Ben Chokern proposed to marry Emily for himself. Princess Millie."

Adrian pondered for a while, "Qiu Ken is already 30 years old this year."

Dillick nodded, "Yes, Your Highness, Lord Qiu Keen once had three wives. His first wife was a noble lady who died of fever before she got married. The second wife was a rich girl who died of Difficult childbirth, the child did not survive. The third wife was a shepherdess. She fell ill when she was newly married and passed away within a few days. People said that Qiu Keen was cursed, and God did not allow him to have children. So far He doesn't even have an illegitimate child."

Neither of these were good marriage partners, Pete Sachs was three years younger than Emily, a child who couldn't protect Emily.Qiu Keen is too old, and three of his wives have died. God knows what happened. In the past, he would never let Emily marry such a person, but now they are his only choice. Because Adrian needs his sister to open a gap in the north, nothing is more effective than marriage.

Adrian rubbed his hair with a headache.

"Then I marry the princess to them and let their offspring become the future king. What can they bring me?"

Dillick said, "The letter said that after they marry the princess, they will promise to send troops when you need them. The Sacks family has private soldiers, about 2, and Qiu Keen said that he has [-] soldiers."

"A careerist." Adrian sneered.The number of soldiers is almost as high as that of the royal family.

If they were really loyal, why didn't they bring soldiers to the rescue when the rebels attacked Lancaster?There are no more than two reasons. First, he is afraid of Paris Sterling's power and doesn't want to be the first bird. Second, seeing that Paris Sterling is successful, he decides to go his way, and maybe he can become a king.

Regardless of the possibility, such a lord is a restless force.

"Diliq, please write back to uncle, and ask him to explain the situation to Emily, and let her make her own choice." Adrian was not in a good mood, he closed his eyes, and tapped his finger on the table , "But don't worry about her, I won't let her marry so soon, at least she won't be married to the north before she becomes an adult, and, tell Qiu Keen and Sachs, if you want to marry my sister, you must at least take out Come out with a little sincerity."

……

The five days passed quickly, and soon it was the wedding day. When Adrian woke up early in the morning, he felt a sweet and cloying smell in the air. The whole palace was full of the smell of toast. He sat up , yawned sleepily, "What's wrong? The kitchen moved downstairs?"

His maid came in beaming, "It was His Majesty Carlos who invited the beggars in the city to eat bread. He said that today is a good day, and everyone in the city should be as happy as him."

Adrian poked his head out and saw the attendants coming and going outside the window, each of them was holding a large basket filled with freshly baked toast that smelled of barley, "I thought Sardinia was so Wealth has no beggars."

"There are beggars everywhere, Your Royal Highness," Ivanka said. "Even in Sardinia, there is no shortage of disease and poverty, no matter which city it is."

"Okay, I'm taught." Adrian smiled.

He got up and washed his face with fresh flowers and water soaked in milk—this was Mei's request, and he couldn't resist her. Mei combed his hair carefully and combed his half-length black hair carefully.Then Ivanka on the side reported his itinerary for today.

"The wedding ceremony will be held at seven o'clock in the evening. After breakfast in the morning, you have to go to the Temple of Truth to pray. It is said that this is a ceremony that every couple must go through. After that, there will be a luncheon, and all nobles and nobles will participate. Those who come It's similar to what you saw last time. His Majesty Carlos said that if you want to rest, you don't have to go. Of course, I think we should do it on the spot. In the afternoon, you will change your clothes, do your hair, and trim your nails. We will make an appointment for you I hired one of the best stylists in the city, and it is said that he knows very well the styles that are currently popular in Sardinia. After that, the dinner, which is your wedding, will be held in the palace hall. I suggest you not eat too much, so as not to get Time to be tense."

Adrian swallowed, he felt that he was quite nervous now, but at this time there was a knock on the door, Ciri poked his head in from the door, "Your Highness, the carriage is ready, are you ready to go?"

"Your Highness hasn't had breakfast yet!" Mei said in a hurry, and quickly stuffed a piece of white bread for Adrian. They were too hasty this morning, and it felt like there were many things that were not ready, and they had already done the overall planning work these days. , but now it was still in chaos, Adrian only had time to take a bite of the bread before Mei pushed him out the door.

"Will Carlos go too?" He asked his maid when he got into the car.

"Yes, of course I will."

Hearing that Carlos would go with him, Adrian heaved a sigh of relief. In any case, he could feel a little more at ease with him, but the thought only passed by, and then Adrian felt ashamed—he thought so It should not be.
