return to the throne

The rebels outside the palace broke through the city gate and surrounded the tower where Adrian lived at lightning speed.

The maids were trembling with fright, huddled together and wailed loudly. May and Ivanka tried to use a carrier pigeon to send a letter to Mrs. Anne for help. However, as soon as the pigeon flew out, it was shot to death by the rebels guarding outside.

The soldiers downstairs were shouting, if Adrian is willing to surrender and hand over the regime, his life will not be threatened, and the people around him will be saved, but if he persists, don't blame them for being rude, they will Everyone in this tower was executed, and then the Duke of Lanka was captured alive, tried by the church and burned to death.

"Fire is the best way to fight against heretics." Little Pete said proudly, he had already made up his mind, no matter what choice Adrian made, he would find a way to get rid of the former crown prince, whom he hated a month ago Threats to himself, remember that at the beginning, Adrian was aloof, using an understatement to decide whether he would stay or not, but now Feng Shui took turns, and it was finally his turn to be the master.

"The princess gave birth to a son." At this time, such news came from the guard on the princess' side.

Little Pete was overjoyed, "Father, did you hear that? I have a son too!"

Lord Sax was also very happy, "In this case..." He and his son looked at each other, and they both understood what the other was thinking. This Adrian, including his illegitimate son, must not let them survive.

"I'll give you an hour to think about it, Adrian. If you don't submit to us within an hour, the polar army will attack this place." Old Pete said loudly to the people inside the tower. People were watching him, maybe they were full of panic inside, old Pete thought, because he was going to send them all to hell at once.

Just as he was complacently planning to continue persuading Adrian to surrender, a sharp arrow shot down and pierced his leg.

Old Pete groaned and fell down.

By the window, Adrian put down the bow and arrow slowly, and handed it to Ciri. Hearing the sudden commotion below, Ciri said in relief, "Let's see how long he's still rambling."

"Father!" Seeing Lord Sachs injured, Little Pete quickly dragged his father back, staring up at the tower, "Wait, I'll make you pay the price!"

After waiting for an hour, the soldiers outside rushed up clamorously. They fought fiercely with the king's guards. When they heard the sound of knives and halberds colliding below, the maids cried even harder. Although Mei didn't Crying, but also a sad look on his face.

After all, the guards were few in number, so after a short fight, Feynman shouted and retreated, and a group of people retreated to the door, holding the door firmly with iron tools.

The people outside immediately brought a battering hammer and rammed the door.

The sound of banging on the door, like thunder coming, made people feel scared.James, who was asleep, was awakened by the movement of the rebels, and he burst into tears.

Adrian hugged him and shook him to coax him. "It's okay, baby, everything will be fine..."

Ciri was also a little scared at this time, "Your Highness, why don't we rush out and fight them, with the protection of the guards, you should be able to escape..."

"What about you?" Adrian said.It is indeed possible for him to escape, but these unprotected ordinary people, these maids, servants, they will all die here.

"I'm not afraid!" His body was trembling, but Ciri still showed a resolute expression. He emphasized again, "I'm not afraid of death! Your Highness! Let me go!"

Adrian touched his head, "You are still a child, so you are not afraid of anything..."

"You gave me my life, even if I give it back, it doesn't matter." Ciri reiterated again, "Besides, Earl Rika taught me to fight, so I can fight."

Adrian raised his index finger, put it on his lips and hissed softly, "Good boy, you don't need to fight, just wait..." He would never let go of any of those people.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound behind the two of them.

The sound was very faint, if it wasn't for the momentary silence outside, it would hardly be noticeable.But it was such a soft voice that suddenly stopped Adrian, who had been acting calmly.

He heard someone calling his name behind him.

The man said softly, "Adrian, I'm back."

……

Carlos had never wanted to wake up for a moment.

He has always known how much Adrian loves his sister. In the little prince's heart, Emily's position has always been the number one. Even James, even he, is not as important as his sister. .

But it was such an important sister who dealt Adrian the most fatal blow.

Carlos was very angry when he heard that the rebels had entered the city.

He hadn't been this angry in a long time.

He wanted to protect Adrian, he wanted to hold him in his arms, and stop being sad for one or two white-eyed wolves. At the same time, Carlos was also very angry at his powerlessness. If he was still awake, Adrian would not meet This danger.

This impulse gave him a strong desire to open his eyes.

Then he woke up.

Carlos sat up abruptly from the bed~.

Unexpectedly, he didn't have a sense of stagnation that had been inactive for too long. Medea used her own power to freeze his time at the moment when he fell down. When he woke up, Carlos was still the healthy self in the past .

Adrian turned around in surprise, staring blankly at Carlos.

His lips moved, as if he wanted to speak, but he couldn't say anything.

Suddenly, Adrian turned around and ran towards the bed. He walked quickly and hurriedly, like a bird flying into the forest. He ran over with a sense of impatience and disbelief, and accidentally tripped because of impatience. Ross quickly hugged him with quick eyes and hands.

James, who had been crying in Adrian's arms, stopped crying, and stared stupidly at the man who was hugging them in front of him with his eyes wide open.

This dad can actually move.

The father who had been lying on the bed~ and never paid attention to him woke up unexpectedly.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" he also waved his hands.

Hugging these two babies, Carlos was full of tenderness in his heart. He kissed Adrian's cheek lovingly, and then kissed the chubby little son who was raised, "I'm sorry..."

"You..." Adrian couldn't help but clung to him tightly, his nails sank deep into Carlos' arm, and Carlos didn't cry out in pain, allowing him to do this unconsciously.

"You're awake..." Barren words are not enough to express Adrian's inner feelings at this moment. He has never been so excited at this moment. He wants to laugh, scream, and hug each other tightly, and He merged into one body, and Adrian looked greedily at Carlos' face, stroking his fingers gently on the other's face.

The touch is warm.

Yes, he read it right, it was not a hallucination, Carlos really woke up.

The moment the man sat up, Adrian only felt a wave of sincere joy spread from the bottom of his heart, it was as if a wandering traveler had finally found his home, a tired bird had finally returned to its nest, and in this world, he finally No longer alone, he has another one to rely on.

It took a long time for Adrian to calm down.He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "You really should apologize. Carlos, you have to apologize to us."

"I know." Carlos kissed him on the lips again. "You have worked hard these days..."

Of course he wanted to apologize. His little prince, who was supposed to be pampered and well-clothed, had suffered so much and wasted so much energy because of his deep sleep.

This should never have happened.

Adrian shook his head and rested his head on Carlos' shoulder.Even without looking at it, he could still feel that the other party was always watching him tenderly. This kind of gaze made his eyes turn red unconsciously.

He wanted to get closer to the other party for a while, not to think about other things, as if only with this man around, he could calm down and not have to worry about the complicated situation outside.

At this time, the sound of banging on the door under the tower sounded again.

Carlos frowned, "What's going on outside." He was a little strange, "Where is Rika?" Why did Rika leave Adrian and his son alone in the palace?Shouldn't he be here to protect them well?

"He's not here, Earl Albert is doing something for me." Adrian said, "Are you tired? Are you hungry?" Carlos has been lying on the bed for too long, if the current conditions do not allow, He wanted to find a bachelor to check Carlos' body immediately.

"I'm fine," Carlos said.

He would not tell Adrian how much he had paid to come back. He felt that everything in God’s Domain was far away from him, the passage was closed, and the stagnant time was flowing again. He had a hunch that he would no longer enjoy eternity His life and God's favor, but looking at Adrian's smiling face, Carlos felt that everything was worth it.

At this moment, a person knocked on the door suddenly. "Your Highness, it's time."

"Is it Thomas?" Adrian hurriedly wiped away his tears, and asked Ciri to call someone in.With outsiders around, it's inappropriate for him to be sad like this. Of course, he insisted that he didn't shed tears, and he could only blame Carlos for having too long eyelashes and kissing him all the time, which pierced his eyes.

The man walked in and saw Carlos slightly surprised for a second, then calmed down, "You are awake, Your Majesty." His tone was a little excited.

Carlos thought this person looked familiar.

Adrian interrupted him, "Toms, tell me the situation."

"Sorry." The man said hastily, "I didn't mean to disturb your reunion, but I have to say something, my lord, everything is ready and I'm just waiting for your order."

Adrian said calmly, "Is everyone here?"

Thomas bowed to him, "Yes, and Sachs and his son are standing at the forefront. I can guarantee that they will not appear in this world again after the 'fireworks' are set off."

Adrian said softly, "Then what are we waiting for?"
