return to the throne

Regarding Seyes' proposal, Carlos frowned slightly.

"Do you know Douglas very well? Lord Seyes?" Rika couldn't hold back and protested loudly, "This is a joke, right? It's so funny, I didn't even know you could make a joke."

Seyes was displeased, "I never joke around in combat meetings."

"Then why send a message to Douglas? Tell him we're just squatting behind him, waiting for him to sit down and crush us all?"

As soon as these words came out, the Aragon generals who had the blood of pirates burst into laughter, including Carlos, who was sitting at the top, and the corners of their mouths curled up in a small arc.His Prime Minister is sometimes so mean, but when the gesture is directed at others, he finds it quite funny.

Seyes was furious, "This is to not increase unnecessary sacrifices, idiot! Those rebels are enemies, but they are also the people of the black dragon. Many of them are unarmed farmers. They shouldn't die like this, and ,Sneak attack is not in line with the morality of knights! Douglas is also a noble knight, and his duel with me should be upright, how can you group of savages understand!"

"If he is upright, why does he work for the rebels?" Rika sneered, "I probably understand how this group of trash hit Lancaster, because some people are even more trash than him! No wonder it took less than half a year. The entire Black Dragon Nation lost half of its land! All because of damn morality!"

Adrian put down his wine glass with a snap, "Earl Albert, please be careful." He said in a cold tone, "Among the trash you called, there is my father, James Duckdraken, you may look down on me He, despise him, but to me, he is a well-deserved hero for his heroic sacrifice for the country."

"No offense, Your Royal Highness." Rika bent down and saluted. He glanced at Adrian, and emphasized the word "Wang Fu" with the accent, so as to remind him of the change of identity. The status of the black dragon. "I'm just an ordinary general who cares about the lives of our soldiers. I can't put us Aragonese in danger for mere self-esteem or the so-called knightly morality. This is a disregard for our soldiers and irresponsibility for them. Aragorn loves every citizen, every warrior, as for what will happen to our enemies, why should I worry about that?"

Seyes looked at him angrily, then turned to look at Adrian. "Your Highness, please agree to my request and let me persuade Douglas to surrender."

"Uncle..." Adrian rubbed his head with a headache.

Carlos smiled at this time, "Sir Seyes, how sure are you that you will make Sir Douglas surrender?"

"We have [-] troops, with such a disparity in strength, what can he do if he doesn't agree to surrender?"

"He can escape." Carlos said casually, "You can perfunctory us first, find a chance to bring the news back to Lancaster, or you can imprison you who went to persuade you to surrender, and then kill us by surprise, he can even pretend to treat us Surrender, ostensibly submit, and then betray us at the last moment, Sir Seyes, do you dare to bet? Do you dare to bet on Adrian's safety? You trust your friend so much that you risk our sacrifice? "

Seyes frowned, "Listen, I know Douglas, we've worked together before, he's not that kind of scumbag..."

"Honey." Carlos didn't listen to him at all, he turned his head to look at Adrian, "You said that once the war starts, I will have full command, right?"

Looking at Carlos' eyes that smiled but did not allow the slightest rejection, Adrian really couldn't say no.He doesn't understand war, and he doesn't understand command, but he knows that Seis is too upright, so he probably won't be the opponent of the rebels. Maybe what Carlos said is the right decision.

It's just that the final decision of the army that seems to be assembled in his name is still in the hands of Carlos.

"Yes, the choice is up to you." Adrian finally replied, and he turned his head away from Seyes' complicated expression.

"Then..." Carlos stood up and said to the others present, "My opinion is that I will skin this Sir Douglas alive, then chop off his head and send it to our dear Quinn hands."

His voice was very soft and calm, but no one dared to ignore his words. The vassals from the black dragon felt that the king of another country was cruel and heartless, but they couldn't help but stare at him in awe.

"Hares, go and bring me his head, a dead man, a thousand gold coins, a living man, a knight's badge, whether dead or alive, I want him to never leave this land!"

……

"How dare you tolerate him being so distracting!" Seyes couldn't help complaining to Adrian at the end of the meeting.

Adrian poured himself a glass of wine, "Because I have no choice, Uncle."

"You have it. You are our crown prince, and this country is yours. Of course you have the right to speak." Seyes said angrily, "There is a possibility of peace talks, why do we have to fight each other? Douglas is a man who knows the times." My man, if you agree with me to surrender to him and make a promise of pardon, he will definitely agree to submit to us!"

"Uncle, I have said many times about the crown prince. From now on, I am no longer just the prince of the black dragon, but I am also the king's husband of Aragon. If you still want me to inherit the throne, I advise you to give up and concentrate on assisting Emily, because her son is the heir of the Black Dragon." Adrian glanced at him, "Moreover, Carlos is our ally now, and his existence is better than that of the so-called Douglas. It is much more important, and on this point, I hope uncle can listen to his opinions more.”

Carlos wanted to kill Douglas to stand up, so Adrian gave him this opportunity to stand up.The death of Douglas will be a deterrent to all northern nobles. Regardless of whether he is the noble knight Seyes said, he must die here in Phoenix City. In this case, anyone who wants to work for Paris Sterling must First weigh whether your neck is hard enough.

Seyes shook his head in disappointment, "This was originally a good thing to show your benevolence, to give the families in the north a chance to stand on your side, and to forgive their sloppy behavior, they just made a mistake... ..." After a pause, he suddenly looked up at Adrian, "Adrian, tell me honestly...you won't fall in love with Carlos, will you?"

Adrian's eyes widened suddenly, "What? I didn't!"

"No?" Seyes asked him back, "You obey him everything he says, you don't care about what he does, you always look at him, always listen to him, and... you still sleep in the bed every day. Together, I heard what Lina said..." He couldn't say some words, so he could only swallow them with gritted teeth, but he knew that Adrian and Carlos had a very close physical relationship, which was stronger than that of ordinary couples. more intimate.

Seyes has always felt that this marriage is shameful and embarrassing. The existence of Carlos seems to remind him of what a cowardly man he is, and he can't even keep his sister's only blood. Talk about it.But now, he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Adrian, don't forget, he is an Aragonese after all, he just wants to sway your rights, I don't know what he wants to do, but this is definitely not a good thing, you shouldn't let him down .”

"I have nothing to presume." Adrian retorted, "I don't have my own army, nor my own land. I only have a little money that I brought out when I fled, and the sum is not enough to fight for ten days." See Seyes wanted to refute, but Adrian shook his head, "Uncle, I know you want to talk about the other lords of Black Rock City, but those are your vassals, not mine, and the object of their allegiance is not me, I Nothing but the title of prince."

"You asked me if I fell in love with Carlos. As his husband, I think this question is meaningless. At least up to now, he and I have the same goal. You said that the northerners just made a mistake once. But their mistakes killed their king and my father. I will never forgive them. I want each of them to pay for my father. For this reason, I am not afraid that Carlos will take me down, as long as he can Paris Stirling drives out the black dragon, I'm willing to do anything!"

Seyes opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, at this moment, Carlos walked into the tent of the two, "Sir Seyes, it's late now, why are you still staying with my lover?" In the same camp." He politely issued an order to expel the guests. "Please go back and rest first, it will be a tough battle tomorrow."

Seyes gave Carlos a cold look, turned around and left.

"He's so fierce, I didn't offend him." Carlos made a joke. He stepped forward and took off his armor, "Honey, how about us..."

"You and your people are too presumptuous to my uncle today, please show him the most basic respect, okay?" Adrian put down his glass and interrupted him politely.

Carlos looked a bit disapproving, "Sorry, I just think Sir Seyes's proposal is ridiculous. In Aragon, only children who have never experienced war would say such things."

"He is a knight, not the bastards under you. He has a noble blood, and he should be more respectable than others. Moreover, this is Black Dragon, not Aragorn." Adrian said loudly, "You Don't understand the meaning of knighthood, whether my uncle or Douglas, they all have their oaths, some people may be bad, but they have their own beliefs!"

Carlos frowned, "Okay." He paused, then put on the armor again.

He opened the curtain of the tent and walked out.

Adrian stood up, "Where are you going?"

Carlos' voice drifted away, "I think you can calm down."

Adrian was so angry that he dropped the cup directly.
