The King's Follower [Rebirth]

"Your Majesty." The door was still open, and the guard standing at the door looked awkwardly at the three father and son who were obviously in a tense confrontation in the room. In this case, even if William was the king's son, it was not good. Calling the king his father in front of the crown prince, "You misunderstood Your Highness, I was the one who brought up this matter in the first place."

"Enough." The king closed his eyes, "Close the door."

"No." William refused indifferently. He held the door handle to prevent people from closing the door, and outside the door was a group of ministers and servants poking their heads. He just wanted these people to hear what he said, "Now, just be Let me explain in front of everyone. I don’t want people to misunderstand Your Highness. The idea of ​​becoming an adult in the space of His Highness the Crown Prince was originally proposed by myself. His Highness didn’t know that I had such an idea. Please help me, the Queen. But I still want to grow up in the space of His Royal Highness, I am destined to be His Highness's sharpest sword in the future, I am willing to be closer to His Highness, and willing to offer my loyalty and love to Your Highness, I think, what could be more frank than being willing to expose your most dangerous and vulnerable moments to His Highness?"

The king's eyes became colder, and Edward felt that when he looked at him, he even gave him the illusion of being pricked by needles.However, after all, the king has been the supreme commander of the empire for decades, and his ability to conceal and disguise his emotions has long been perfected. The coercion has also been maintained within a certain range, and those who don't know it will only think that he is just a little angry, but they don't expect that the king is thinking about how to tear this bold rebel in front of him.As for Edward, it was only after he had truly seen the king's heart of stone that he realized that there was such a cruel and ruthless heart hidden under his usually calm eyes.

"Your Majesty." William knelt down on one knee, "Please allow me this little request. Since I came to the palace, Your Majesty has always cared for me. In this world, besides you, he is my most important, And the most trusted person. I don't know why you are so angry, but no matter what, please agree. If I can't come of age in His Highness's space, I would rather not complete the coming-of-age ceremony in the space."

The ministers outside the door whispered to each other, secretly excited about the royal gossip that they hadn’t seen with their own eyes for more than ten years. You must know that the last time everyone saw the king’s gossip with their own eyes was the mother of His Excellency William, Ma. What happened when Miss Greeter was still serving as the queen's maid in the palace. At that time, the queen suddenly learned that the girl who was serving her personally had seduced the king, and exchanged a necklace with a miniature portrait with the king, so she publicly Pulling off Miss Margaret's necklace, laughing at the worrying upbringing and moral standards of the Letterman family.That incident happened in the corridor where people come and go, and it has become the talk of many people for several years.And today's release is enough for them to chew for several years.

The king tapped his fingers lightly on the table, a dry rhythm that suggested his suppressed anger.However, Edward wanted to strike while the iron was hot. The king was unwilling to lose his composure in public, and he did not want to leave the queen with the opportunity to act at this sensitive and critical moment.

"Father." Edward deliberately softened his tone. As a sub-orc man, especially a good-looking sub-orc man, he is always favored by public opinion and favor, "I really don't know why you refused William's invitation, He is my brother after all, how could I hurt him? Why should I hurt him? I really don't like those brothers and sisters, but William is different. Please allow, allow the Crown Prince of the Empire, to accept his best Loyalty of a loyal brother." In the last sentence, he deliberately didn't use "I" to refer to himself, so this "crown prince" actually refers to William, he can't just force him, he still has to take a step back, at least slightly in attitude. Let it go.

So after saying this, Edward came to the king and knelt down on one knee, holding the king's right hand with both hands, and kissed the king's ring pleadingly and piously.

The king instantly tightened his right hand and squeezed Edward's fingers tightly in his palm. Edward's face remained unchanged, but cold sweat broke out from the pain on his forehead and back. The king exerted so much force that he felt that his fingers had already Almost broken.

"Let's discuss this matter later." The king didn't want to compromise, but he also didn't want to give more grounds to the group of ministers watching the excitement outside the door. He didn't agree, but he didn't refuse any more forcefully.

"Thank you, father." Edward forced himself to show a joyful expression, kissed the king's ring once again, and led William out of the study room, passing through all the ministers with staring eyes, and returned to his room. The other valets sent out, leaving only himself and William.But as soon as the door was closed, he could no longer maintain that breezy expression. Except for the thumb, the remaining four fingers were all swollen, with waves of hot pain.

William's eyes widened, and he immediately reached out to feel what was going on, but stopped halfway, for fear that he would hurt Edward. "I'll go to the doctor," he said at last, and immediately wanted to run out.

"Come back." Edward called him, "It would be very embarrassing for His Majesty to report that my finger was injured at this time. He finally gave in. If you call the doctor and spread the news about my injury, That is to force him to retreat again, or even take a few steps forward."

William pursed his lips, nodded sadly, and asked with red eyes, "Then what should we do now?"

Edward rubbed his face with the back of his hand, and said, "Don't worry, as long as the bones are not injured, just go to the cabinet and find me some medicine to reduce swelling."

William was silent, and carefully applied a thick plaster on Edward. These plasters are made of herbs produced in spaces above level seven. The effect is excellent. The moment he applied it, Edward felt his fingers cool and swollen The feeling also gradually alleviated.

William gently raised Edward's hand, looked down at his fingers, and suddenly said softly, "I'm really useless."

Edward raised his eyebrows: "What stupid things are you talking about?"

William closed his mouth tightly again, and Edward could only comfort him in a gentle voice: "It's not your fault. After all, Your Majesty has been king for decades. You are not yet an adult, so how can you compete with him?"

William put his face on the back of his unpainted hand, and said after a while, "I will protect you in the future."

Edward couldn't move his hands, so he had to lean down, leaned over and kissed his forehead, and said, "I know it all, I will protect you now, and you will protect me in the future."

In order to avoid the king's frequent troubles for himself, Edward decided to find something for the king to do.The forces of the Doherty Republic have been relentlessly trying to infiltrate the imperial government. Although Edward had controlled them before, it was not easy to drive them out of the empire completely, so as not to cause a greater backlash. He just kept those people in a certain circle. Within the scope, give some sweets from time to time to appease their emotions, but do not let them touch the really useful things.Now, these people can be used to divert the king's attention.

Therefore, Edward provided some convenience and access to those spies of Dougherty, allowing them to sneak into the government department of the royal capital smoothly, and gave them four seats in the House of Commons, and arranged for two people to sit together He acted as an aide to a frontbench member of the House of Lords, and immediately revealed the information to the king.

The king was naturally shocked, and immediately made great efforts to rectify and rectify the political arena. Edward continued to provide the king with true and false opportunities through Earl Parkinson, and then easily involved the queen. The three forces suddenly fought secretly. , the king really couldn't separate his mind to take care of Edward and William's affairs.

Edward breathed a sigh of relief, and began to focus on planning how to step down from the crown prince.If the king's method is followed, everyone may only think that he is a liar who confuses the royal blood, and the queen is trying to conspire against the country. If the king guides the public opinion a little bit, then few people in the whole country will dare to sympathize with him.But now, he will no longer let himself fall into a passive position, he must guide public opinion by himself, and return the crown prince to William in his own way.

And here, I have to say that Olgonla treated him really well after being reborn.Since his rebirth, his space has changed. There has been a land where herbs can be planted, and there is also a land where herbs that can produce magic crystals can be leapfrogged. The assassination six years ago, although almost destroyed His space, but after two years of recuperation, earth-shaking changes have taken place in the new space, and his space level has risen again. Not to mention, all the land has become the kind that can leapfrog to grow and condense magic crystals. The senior herbal apprentice!

This is the gift of Orgonla. Since history, there are only a few saints who have experienced a certain variation in the space after the space was destroyed and restored, and the blow to the space of those saints is far less than that of William. and thoroughly.

Edward formally intends to take advantage of this.In the Salman Continent, everyone believes in Orgunla devoutly. Many believers will travel thousands of miles to the church where the miracle occurred, kneel down devoutly for several days, and express their admiration to Orgonla.And his mutated space can be regarded as a miracle.
