The King's Follower [Rebirth]

When he dreams back at midnight, Bryant always wonders how he got to where he is today.

He was born in the noble and wealthy Ablos family. You know, the Ablos family has always been the king's most loyal servants, loved and trusted, and being named Ablos means a rich and elegant life and a career ahead future.And he is the favorite young son of the king's favorite minister, the Duke of Parma. He has a rare space for planting herbs. Elegant and talented, she has been a well-known model of high society since she was a child.

Although as the youngest son, Bryant could not inherit his father's title, but he had been in and out of the royal palace since he was a child. The old king and queen loved him very much and let him accompany the crown prince. They had hinted internally and externally that they would marry him to the crown prince in the future. The Crown Prince himself has shown an overt affection for him, exchanging gifts and necklaces with miniatures of himself to wear next to each other.These made Bryant always regard himself as the future queen, and demanded himself according to the standards of members of the royal family in every word and deed.

He used to think that this was his own life, living in the eyes of others admiring and looking up, becoming the focus of an occasion, being synonymous with the most elegant and perfect, marrying the crown prince, becoming the crown prince and concubine loved by the people, and finally becoming the queen, Assist the king and rule the country.

However, everything changed completely when he was 16 years old.His mother had been engaged before marrying his father, and although she claimed the engagement had been broken, she could not produce any substantive proof.Maybe she did not break off the engagement, or maybe, as she herself accused, someone stole the contract of her breaking off the engagement, bribed the witnesses, and deliberately murdered her.But no matter what, her marriage to the Duke of Parma was declared invalid, and Bryant fell from the cloud to the dust, from the much-anticipated son of heaven to the illegitimate son who was much looked down upon.He lost everything, lost his noble status, lost his carefree life, lost his father's favor, lost the respect and envy of others, lost the favor of the king and queen, and lost the love of the crown prince.He is not yet an adult and cannot understand the taste of love, but when the crown prince returned the necklace he gave him, he still felt a heartfelt pain and sorrow.

The Duke of Parma was very angry about this. He believed that Bryant's mother was a promiscuous woman, and this marriage full of deceit was the greatest humiliation to him.He drove their mother and son away from the capital, bought a manor on the outskirts of a small town far away from the capital, and placed them there.He took away the surnames of the mother and son, and did not allow them to live and communicate in the name of Ablos. Immediately afterwards, the mother received a letter from her natal family. The removal of the mother's name from the family tree also deprived her of her maiden name.

Being abandoned by her husband's family and her mother's family one after another was a great blow to her mother. She had a complete mental breakdown and died of illness within two years.After dealing with his mother's funeral, Bryant could only live alone in a remote countryside, with no one else except a few servants hired locally.

He seemed to be forgotten by everyone. None of his father, his older brothers and sisters, his former friends, and his relatives had ever sent him a letter.He thought that he would live like a corpse walking alone in the big empty house until he died.Then, when he was twenty, a party knocked on his door in the middle of the night, bringing a letter from the Duke of Parma.He was secretly recalled to the capital by his father. He set off in the middle of the night, riding a light car all the way, and entered the city after the gate of the capital was locked in the middle of the night, and returned home through the back door in the dark.As soon as he entered the house, he was immediately dragged into the prison in the basement and locked up.

There is also a golden-eyed orc in the cell that he has never seen before. Golden eyes represent royal blood, and the other party has never appeared in social activities. He is probably a down-and-out royal family member.Aphrodisiacs were doused in their water and food, and they were forced to have sex that night, and every day since.He had contemplated suicide, but surrounded by their guards, he couldn't find an opportunity to kill himself.He learned about his chance of being treated like this from the mouth of the beast who was also a prisoner.

It turned out that the elder sister who replaced him as the crown prince and was crowned as the queen two years ago had not conceived after three years of marriage to the king. The Duke of Parma secretly found a doctor for her to examine her. The conclusion of conception.In order to consolidate her position, the queen decided to adopt a child, and the parents of this child, she chose Bryant and an unknown royal family member to ensure that the child would have the unique golden eyes of the royal family and somewhat similar to her own. appearance.

Both Bryant and the orc were healthy young men. Two months later, an extra egg was successfully produced in his space, and the next day, the orc was taken out of the prison and disappeared. .During the two months of getting along, although Bryant did not fall in love with the orc, he also felt sorry for him and became friends.The orc knew that he was bound to die, but Bryant was of the Duke of Parma's blood, so he might have a chance of surviving, so he gave Bryant his necklace. The pendant of the necklace was a ring, which was his mother's Brought from his natal family, he told Bryant that if he encountered any difficulties in the future, he could use this ring to seek help from his mother's family, Aisha's Green family.

So, after giving birth, Bryant, who escaped from his father by chance, took the ring and defected to Aisha's Green family.Green is a well-known local wealthy businessman family. The head of the family, Ralph Green, took him in and provided him with a job. A few years later, they fell in love and became husband and wife.After many years of marriage, Bryant found out that the founder of the Green family was the product of an affair between the wife of Michelle Wilton, the inventor of the energy cannon, and Earl Ahmed.The house they lived in was built on Wilton's former residence. Here, Ralph found Michelle Wilton's manuscript on energy cannon research, and he planned to use this invention to make a Earth-shattering.

As soon as the child broke its shell, the Duke of Palma took him out of the space. He only had time to look at him, and the Duke of Palma took him away directly.But for so many years, he has always remembered the child's appearance, the body is still covered with sticky egg liquid, the thin light golden hair sticks to the scalp, the skin is fair, like his eggshell, and the small face is wrinkled together , a soft cry came out of his mouth, the sound was not loud, but it was particularly worrying.He lost his mind at that time, knelt on the ground, crying and begging his father to return the child to him, but he could only watch his father go further and further away, and the cry of the child became farther and farther away, until he went up the steps and disappeared. Behind the basement door.At that moment, he felt as if he had died, but the desire to see the child again became stronger and stronger, and it was filled with hatred and resentment, which gave him enough courage and guts. When he was "disposed", he escaped from birth, and it was this force of hatred that made him walk across most of the country to bring Ai Xia to seek a chance of survival.

When Bryant withdrew his thoughts, he realized that he had burst into tears. He hurriedly wiped away his tears, and looked out from the gap in the cabinet door. Outside the cabinet, Edward, who was kneeling in front of the remains of the saint, had already After finishing his prayer, he stood up holding the sarcophagus.From this angle, Bryant was able to see his side face, and his face, which was 16% similar to himself, quickly overlapped with the wrinkled little face when he was born [-] years ago.Bryant looked at him greedily, refusing to let go of every inch from head to toe.

Edward originally wanted to pray seriously, but the sense of peeping that he felt in the auditorium just now appeared again. At first, he thought it might be a hallucination caused by his nervousness, but this sense of alarm became more and more serious. The more intense it became, until the end, it was completely impossible for him to calm down and pray.

Distraught, he stood up and drew a golden ring dragon on his chest as an apology to the saint. Afterwards, he frowned and carefully looked at the chapel, trying to find out the source of the sense of peeping.

Bryant didn't know what he had done to make Edward wary.He covered his mouth, trying to slow down his breathing, not daring to move.

Edward looked around carefully for a week, and finally set his sights on the cabinet containing the utensils used for mass.In the entire chapel, only here can hide people.

Bryant held his breath, feeling as though he had met Edward's realization that the kid had spotted him.This was the first time he observed Edward's face at such a close distance, which immediately brought tears to his eyes, and the consequence of holding back the tears was that he almost suffocated because of a blocked nose, and now he was pregnant, and his emotions were full of ups and downs , I immediately felt dizzy, my legs went limp, and I touched the cabinet.

Edward stepped back quickly, shouting loudly: "Guards!"

The moment the guards rushed through the door, Bryant fell out of the closet. He grabbed the closet door in embarrassment to support his body, climbed back, and tried to shrink back. At this time, it was too late to close the door, and he lifted it up in despair. At first, he looked at Edward beggingly.Seeing this face, Edward was startled, but immediately put on a relaxed expression on his face, and greeted the rushing guards with a smile.

"A false alarm, a false alarm." He raised his hand to signal them to stop, "It was just a false alarm."

"Your Highness, what happened?" Edward's cousin George, the vice-captain of the Guards on duty today, asked.

Edward pretended to hesitate, and finally smiled embarrassedly, and said, "Ah, speaking of it, it's a bit embarrassing. A little mouse ran out of the cabinet, and it scared me."

The guards relaxed, but George insisted: "Please leave here quickly, and have someone check this room carefully. How could there be mice running around in a church of the size of Aisha Cathedral?" Go, this is not the kitchen. Maybe it’s not the rats that disturb you, but something the gangsters deliberately released to divert everyone’s attention.”

"It was my mistake, Your Highness." Bishop Idris interrupted suddenly, "Actually, the cathedral has been plagued by rats during this period, and we are cleaning it up, but the work just started from the reference room yesterday, and it hasn't reached here yet. , I didn't expect to disturb His Highness."

"This is indeed your fault." Edward said, "This is the temporary resting place of Saint Hilde, how can there be such a dirty creature as a mouse. This is a great disrespect to the saint, as a church administrator mistake."

"I'm sorry, Your Highness." Bishop Idris bowed deeply.

George frowned: "Your Highness, please..."

"I don't want to leave yet, Vice-Captain Ablos." Edward interrupted him, and then said to Bishop Idris, "I have some doubts about the Hadith, and I want to hear your opinion. The remains of the two were in the same room, I thought, right here."

George reluctantly led the guards out of the chapel and closed the door.

Edward Shi Shiran sat down on the bench and looked at Bishop Idris with a cold expression.Of course he knew this person. In his last life, after the queen told him everything, he saw his portrait. When he first came back in this life, he asked someone to secretly collect his information. After surrendering to the king, the king also Sent him some small portraits of Bryant as a token of reassurance.And the other party's performance made him even more convinced of the other party's identity.It's just that he always thought that the other party had died a long time ago, but now he appeared in front of him alive, and a turbulent sea was set off in his heart, but soon, the storm that swept across quickly calmed down, leaving him alone who didn't understand why it appeared. The overwhelming anger and deep disappointment and exhaustion

Bishop Idris apologized in a low voice, and helped Bryant out of the cabinet.

"Your Highness." Bryant was still dizzy and his limbs were weak. With the support of Bishop Idris, he knelt down on one knee and saluted Edward. "I'm sorry to disturb you." He choked up, "I It's just... I heard that you are coming... I want... I want to see you secretly... I..."

"What's your name?" Edward looked down at him.

Bryant's lips were trembling, and everything seemed out of control. What Edward asked was just an ordinary question, but his tone, his expression, and his unpredictable eyes all made him feel that Edward seemed to already know who he is, which he never imagined.He was at a loss, his mind went blank, but there was an irresistible urge to recognize him in his heart. For 16 years, he has longed to be able to recognize his child, which is simply the most attractive temptation in the world.Reason told him that perhaps all this was just his overthinking, but that was his child, he was his father, and the innate intimacy and understanding hidden in his blood clamored for him to confess everything.

Bishop Idris saw that Bryant's expression was wrong, so he quickly answered for him: "This is my brother's mate, Bryant. He has always admired you. Now that he is pregnant, and he learned that you came to Aisha, he is very happy." I want to visit you, but you are here to recuperate now, and ordinary citizens are not eligible to see you, so I have to come up with this way to see you secretly."

"Bryant." Edward repeated the name slowly, "Bryant." He laughed softly, "What's your last name?"

"Green, Your Highness." Bishop Idris replied again.

"Then, what about before you got married?" Edward looked at Bryant, and tightly clenched his hands hidden in his wide sleeves, "What was your last name before you got married? Let me guess." He paused, There was a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, "Ablos, right? Bryant Ablos, the queen's half-brother who died young, and the king's former first love."

Bryant held his breath, stood up tremblingly, and muttered: "Edward..."

"Really, I have known you for a long time." Edward also stood up, put on his hat, and the wide brim of the hat covered his face, "Hide him back in the cabinet, I'm leaving."

"Edward." Bryant took a staggering step towards him, not knowing how to keep his child, all this happened so suddenly, he could only keep calling his name, "Edward..."

Edward didn't know what to do, his mind was in a mess, and he just wanted to go back and be alone.He ignored Bryant and strode forward. After Bishop Idris reluctantly stuffed Bryant back into the cabinet, he opened the door and went straight in.
