return to the throne

Carlos left Adrian in the palace of Lanka. On the one hand, he hoped that he could sit in the base camp behind the coalition forces; Think so comfortable.

The first is James. Because Carlos was not there, Adrian didn't want to hand over his son to others, so he chose to take him with him.Little James wakes up every night to drink milk. He has a good appetite, cries loudly, and will fill his ears with magic sounds when he is not happy. Several times Adrian was woken up when he was in a deep sleep, but thinking about this It was his own son, no matter how bad he was, he couldn't beat him, so he could only yawn and ask for the nanny to be found.

If James was just a general tormentor, Emily was annoying him, and she came several times these days, begging Adrian to release the nobles he had captured.

Of course Adrian refused, but Emily still came frequently, almost every day, trying to persuade him.

On this day, Emily also waited early in the living room of Adrian's bedroom.

Adrian still had the same attitude. He didn't directly refuse Emily's visit, but he never let go.

"Even if they are willing to pay a large amount of taxes, won't my brother agree to spare them?" Emily said in a disappointed tone, "Earl Rainers is sick in prison, he is a friend of my father, and he has taken care of them in the past. What would my father say if he was still alive?"

"He will, like me, let these people receive the punishment they deserve." Adrian was busy putting his son to sleep, and only gave her a hasty look, "Emily, I told you last time, I am already merciful enough to let their family members and children go, if I were more cruel, they should be lying in the coffin by now, how could they have the opportunity to complain to you?"

"However, their families have already paid the price. The wives of the nobles who were taken away are crying every day. Without their husbands, you confiscated their land. They have no income, and they will soon be unable to live." Ai Mi Li said sadly, "My mother chose to go with him because my father died in battle and there was no hope. I don't want this to happen to other people."

Adrian lowered his face, "How can you compare them to your mother?" King James died in battle, and Queen Margaret died in love immediately. How can the grass understand.They only put their minds on opportunism, thinking that if they harmed their father, they could become the favorite of the new king, and they didn't think about whether people like Quinn would think of their benefits, and those noble ladies didn't know in private How many lovers there are, and it is impossible to live and die together like the former king and his wife who were deeply in love with each other. It is really insulting to compare them with their own mother. Adrian doesn't like to hear such words.

"I can live as I want. I just disbanded these people's private soldiers, and I didn't take away their property. They still have several times more wealth than ordinary people. You don't need to say any more."

Emily watched him for a long time.

On this side, James finally fell asleep, and Adrian was also relieved. Looking back, he noticed Emily's strange eyes.

"Do you want to hug the baby?" Adrian was determined to ease the relationship with his sister, "He is asleep now, and he is much better than usual."

"I don't know how to hold children..." Emily hesitated.

"Try it?" Adrian handed James to her. "You are James' aunt. When I return to Sardinia, it will be difficult for you to see him. Hug him now."

The name seemed to touch Emily, she pursed her lower lip, and finally reached out and took the child.

James moved uncomfortably, but didn't wake up.

Emily hugged him stiffly.

"He will feel uncomfortable if you do this." Adrian corrected her posture, "Hold his head, like this..."

Emily looked down at him carefully, her voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of waking him up. "He's so cute."

A month has passed, and the wrinkled, monkey-like baby with red complexion has become fairer day by day, with black hair and blue eyes, exactly the same as the child in Adrian's dream.He inherited the perfect appearance of his parents, with a round and cute face, just like the little angel depicted in the mural, which makes people fall in love with it at first sight.

Even if Emily had no feelings for the child, there was a tenderness in her heart at this moment.

"Adrian, this kid's name is James?"

Adrian said, "Yes, in honor of our father."

Emily said in a low voice, "That's nice, James."

She also hopes to have a child of her own.

If she has a son, she will also name the child after her father.

Emily hugged James for a while, then put him back on the bed~. "Brother, he looks very much like you, not His Majesty Carlos." Because James was sleeping, Emily couldn't see his blue eyes-this is the only place where the child looks like Carlos so far , but just looking at his facial features, it can be vaguely seen that he bears the shadow of Adrian.

This discovery made Emily couldn't help feeling a little fond of James.

Adrian replied proudly, "Of course, because it's my son." He lowered the curtain so that the child could sleep more peacefully. "Carlos said that everyone in his family has blond hair. Once a child with black hair was born, it seems that our black dragon blood is stronger."

Emily smiled slightly.

But when she thought of the child's other father, the happy mood disappeared. No matter how cute he was, he was of the blood of the Aragonese, and he was another enemy of the black dragon. She couldn't just because he was her brother's child, She just gave up her vigilance against this little thing, hesitated for a moment, and Emily changed the subject, "By the way, brother, I wonder if you have heard some rumors outside?"

"What rumor?"

Emily said vaguely, "It's the identity of this child... Also, they said you want this child to inherit the throne..."

How could Adrian have not heard the rumors circulating outside the palace now, but the fact that a man has a child is too absurd, and most people would not believe that this child is actually Carlos' son, so Adrian had to acquiesce James is his illegitimate son. Anyway, his son will become the king of Aragon in the future. It doesn't matter what the black dragon thinks.But he didn't expect that the wind of rumors that hadn't been curbed in time became more and more intense, and now it has turned into a situation where Adrian wants to amend the law and let the major nobles in the country recognize his status as an illegitimate child. This is completely different from his original intention same.

Adrian said with a headache, "This kind of fallacy...do you believe it?"

Emily smiled reluctantly, "Of course I don't believe it."

Adrian couldn't help complaining, "I don't know who is so boring, and they just use my son's matter as a talking point, I just didn't tell them that the child belongs to Carlos, they think too much..."

These speculative nobles want to make some political investment, thinking that supporting Adrian's children can win the favor of the powerful duke, then they are very wrong, Adrian never thought of letting James Inheriting the throne of the Black Dragon, in his heart, the throne is reserved for Emily's son to inherit.

"Sister." Adrian said sincerely, "Believe me, Carlos doesn't have the ambition to annex the Black Dragon, at least not now. With James, he doesn't want to stay too long in the Black Dragon for fear of being unsafe." He trusted Carlos very much. Since the man said that he had no intention of black dragon, Adrian chose to believe it. Moreover, Adrian himself felt that his son should not stay in Lanka, he belonged to Aragon.

Emily was silent for a moment, "So that's the case."

Adrian didn't know what his sister was thinking, but when the topic was over, he changed the subject, "Don't talk about me, how are you and Pete doing recently?"

When Emily mentioned Pete, she felt a little uncomfortable, "That's it."

Adrian said seriously, "I heard that he hasn't had sex with you for the past two days, what's the matter?"

Emily said embarrassedly, "I want to be alone."

"Why?" Adrian was puzzled. Although he knew that the princess and his wife had a bad relationship, he thought that at least his sister wanted a child.Pete and Emily have the same thoughts. Logically speaking, these two should be working hard to create children every day, so how could they suddenly separate.

Emily said, "He seems to have another woman."

Adrian suddenly became angry, "How dare he?" In the entire Celtic continent, who is more beautiful than his sister?His younger sister was once hailed as the number one beauty, and she was famous at a young age. With such a wife, would Little Pete fall in love with other women?

"Who is it? Is it in the palace?" Adrian asked.

Emily played it lightly, "Maybe, he seems to have brought someone in as a maid. I've seen her a few times. She's a pretty girl."

"Why don't you stop him?" Adrian said angrily, "You are a powerful princess with the support of the entire kingdom, and what is he? Your husband is just your husband. He should ask you for help on any occasion." Salute, all decisions must be affirmed by you... How can you let him climb on top of you?"

Emily was silent for a while, "Brother, not everyone is as lucky as you." Carlos may not be a good man, but he is indeed a good husband and father, so Adrian didn't know Emily's helplessness.Emily also doesn't want to tolerate her husband having other lovers, but what can he do if he has no intention of loving her?He would rather be with a woman whose family, appearance, and personality are not as good as his own, rather than go back and face his princess wife. In this case, Emily also has her own pride, and she will never humble herself pity.

"But..." Adrian wanted to call Pete to scold him right now.

Emily shook her head, "Please, brother, save me some face." She said melancholy, "You already know the matter, don't everyone know? Maybe everyone knows that my husband is having an affair with someone else Yes. However, such things happen too often among nobles, and I don't think anyone will think his behavior is wrong."
