return to the throne

Adrian was in a good mood when he learned of Quinn's death.

Although it's a pity that he didn't catch people with his own hands, and let Quinn accept the spurning of thousands of people before he was sentenced to death, but he died under the mouth of a bear, and even the body could not be preserved, which is quite in line with the final destination of the bastard Quinn .

Moreover, Norman in the church also gave Adrian a big gift. Pope Sis was deposed by the cardinals and sent to the dungeon to wait for punishment. The moment he heard the news, Adrian couldn't help being excited Standing up from his chair - after waiting so long, he finally saw the Sith fall.

However, there are gains and losses, because Sidney has made a good report, and the church promised to pardon the charges of rebellion in the abyss swamp, which made Adrian not satisfied.

Sidney and his son were also very well-behaved. Sith had just been imprisoned on the front foot, and Paris Sterling's peace letter was delivered to Adrian on the back foot.

Adrian handed the letter of peace to Emily.

After Emily finished reading, she couldn't help crying excitedly, "Brother, we have finally waited for this day."

"It's not over yet." Unlike his sister who is so emotional, Adrian has always remained calm and rational, "It's too beautiful to want to evade responsibility so easily. Let these traitors have a chance to make a comeback, and I will never forgive them for their betrayal." Adrian didn't care what the people in the church planned, but Adrian would never let go of these dissident subjects. Once betrayed, there will be a second time, and a third time, Adrian remembered the lesson his father taught him, and he would personally lead the army to eradicate these betrayers one by one.

"But isn't the culprit dead?" Emily was puzzled, she didn't understand why Adrian didn't accept the surrender of Pallister and other northern nobles, "By the way, brother, I think..." She bit lower lip.

Adrian turned to look at her. "What do you think?"

Emily finally plucked up the courage, "Brother, our enemies are dead now, and our parents have been avenged. Shouldn't you also find a chance to leave Carlos?"

Adrian froze.

"Leave him and accept the throne." Emily said, "If you are worried about being criticized because of your status, you might as well wait a few years. After a few years, people will not remember that you were married to Carlos. As for Carlos, we can give him whatever he wants, whether it is land, money or slaves, we can use these in exchange for your freedom."

Adrian frowned calmly, "Emily, I have not lost my freedom, Carlos has not imprisoned me, and, we agreed, right? The throne will belong to your son."

"What if I don't have a son at all?" Emily asked back, "Brother, why are you hesitating? You are from the Black Dragon, and you were originally our crown prince. Now that our biggest enemy is gone, do you still want to give up the throne for an agreement? ? You don’t really expect my husband, Pete, who doesn’t understand anything, to run the country for me?”

"You can learn to handle political affairs by yourself." Adrian was unmoved, "Uncle's existence will limit Pete's rights, and they have no way to influence your decision. Although you cannot become a queen, your rights are equivalent to the queen. "

Emily took a deep breath, "You have changed into Adrian, the former you only thought about the future of the black dragon, not some damn covenant—and this covenant was originally unfair." She paused, "Or, You're in love with Carlos and don't want to leave him at all?"

Adrian didn't deny her words, "We had an agreement, Emily, and the north hasn't been conquered yet, isn't it too fast to cross the river and tear down the bridge?"

Emily suddenly became emotional, "So what? Didn't those people in the north cross the river and tear down the bridge for us? Betrayal can gain benefits, so why can't we follow suit? Tell me, what's wrong with it?"

Adrian looked at her in surprise.

Emily pursed her lower lips, "Brother, you always say that I am indecisive, but the one who is indecisive now is you, have you forgotten? This is Lanka, our base camp, and the Aragonese are now alone. ... If his life is in danger, he will not disagree to leave you."

Adrian interrupted her severely, "Emily, you better know what you're talking about?" He never imagined that Emily suggested that he attack Carlos, although he always knew that Emily was not optimistic. The marriage of the two, but never thought that she hated Carlos so deeply.

Emily's eyes were red under her brother's gaze, but she still looked at him stubbornly.

"What do you think is wrong with my statement?" she said. "Don't forget, he is also our enemy. He is eyeing us on the other side of Sharp. In that case, why did we kill them first? You know, this is our best chance to deal with them, and this kind of opportunity will never happen again. Yes. Even if you miss your old love and don't want to kill Carlos, we still have enough troops to hurt them... This is a once-and-for-all solution!"

Adrian couldn't help but stood up, "But this is also self-defeating, breaking promises, and ruining the vows we made at the beginning! Emily, why do you have such thoughts, what will parents think when they find out?"

Emily was expressionless, "They are already dead, why should I care what they think..."

"Enough, you go back." Adrian stood up in disappointment, he felt heavy in his heart, the joy he had just had when he learned of the death of the enemy was gone now. "Carlos is not our enemy, he is our ally. Once we point the tip of the knife at him, have you considered the consequences? He may not be safe, but afterward, waiting for us will be iron cavalry from Aragon, Do you want to see that happen?" At that time, once the Aragonese choose revenge, Pallister will immediately tear up his face and betray the black dragon again.

"So, don't say such things again." Adrian warned his sister word by word, "Also, Carlos is my lover, sister, you absolutely shouldn't, you just suggested that I attack him. "

After a while, Adrian heard Emily's soft voice, "Okay, if that's what you want."

After breaking up with Emily, Adrian was very depressed.

His attendant Ciri witnessed the struggle from start to finish, and when Adrian turned his gaze to him, he quickly said, "Your Highness, I won't talk nonsense."

"Thank you." Adrian said, "You are from Aragon, even if you want to tell Carlos, I can understand."

"But His Majesty Carlos said that I am loyal to you." Ciri hurriedly stated, "Even if you really want to harm His Majesty, I will not betray your secret to His Majesty. On the day you rescued me, my Life belongs to you, and you alone are my master."

There was a trace of tenderness on Adrian's face. Carlos could obviously send servants to monitor him, but he didn't do so. Since the two of them got married, the people around Adrian have never changed, and they have always been his confidantes. Thanks to Carlos' support, if it were someone else, I'm afraid Adrian would not be given these freedoms.

"Don't worry, I won't agree to my sister's request." Adrian said to Ciri, "Emily...she wasn't like this, I don't know what happened to her."

Adrian doesn't want to use harsh words to judge his sister, but to be honest, he really doesn't want to see his most valued sister want to lay hands on his other important person, not to mention, now Adrian is pregnant with Carlos Did Emily hope that the child would lose its father at birth?Obviously they also lost their father, were displaced outside, and suffered all kinds of hardships. Emily shouldn't do this when they compare their hearts to each other.

It has to be said that Adrian was a little disappointed.

"Everyone changes, Your Highness," Ciri said. "When I was wandering outside, I met many down-and-out businessmen. They were not bad. They used to be kind-hearted, upright and honest people, but difficulties would destroy their strength of character and wear away their goodwill. Sometimes People often make two diametrically opposed choices, but that doesn't mean they are bad people, it's just that sometimes reality prevents them from being good people."

Adrian is having a hard time, so is Emily?There was a time when she couldn't even bear to hurt a bird, but now she easily said something that violated her oath, and her life in the polar region affected her like this?

"Do you have any brothers, Ciri?" Adrian asked.

"I'm an orphan, but my adoptive father adopted many children. Are they my brothers? Maybe, but my brothers are my enemies. If I bring something back and they don't, they will think Do everything you can to grab something from me, so as not to be punished."

"Maybe I shouldn't ask that." Also, how could Ciri's situation be used as a reference, he was really confused, Adrian rubbed his head, "Sorry, I brought up your sadness."

"It's not really a sad thing, Your Highness." Ciri smiled slightly. "It's just my past life, it's different from the princess and your situation. You are a good person, the princess grew up with you, and I think she must be fine... she did it, maybe she just let the pain blind her eyes, But I believe in you, you will never use power against our king."

Adrian's heart felt hot, did Ciri actually believe him like that?

An outsider believes in his character, but his sister, who is a close relative, tries to persuade him to break the oath. Adrian doesn't want to say that he is an absolutely noble person, but he also has his own code of conduct. He couldn't help sighing, "Thank you Your trust, Ciri."

Adrian had no way of knowing whether Emily had such an idea because of her own situation, but soon Adrian didn't have the energy to care about what she thought. His belly was getting bigger and bigger. During the month, he gradually lost his energy, was tired and weak, and fell asleep almost every day.

After seeing his situation, Annie said, "Carlos decided to postpone the dispatch of troops and leave after you give birth."

Adrian rubbed his brows, and half-lyed on the chair sleepily, "But there are still two months to go before ten months. If troops are sent out at that time, it will be winter." It is absolutely unfavorable, because they live in warm regions all year round, and it is difficult for them to adapt to the northern climate.

"You don't have to wait ten months, Adrian, the birth canal of men is narrower than that of women, so the fetus will not wait until full term, but don't worry, babies born in eight to nine months are also healthy, and there are me Now, you'll be fine."

The author has something to say:

The baby is about to be born. .
