Counterattack [Interstellar]

After Lieutenant Colonel Laughlin led his men to Alice, Allen did not shy away from anyone. Like all the guides, he calmly walked out of the practice field and received treatment from the medical class.

"Please arrange Her Royal Highness and I in the same ward." After being injected with a sedative specially for guides, Allen became more conscious. "Don't worry, I can control myself."

The garrison, students, teachers... Almost everyone outside the exercise field looked at Alan as if they were looking at a monster. The middle-aged guide doctor in the medical class looked at the giant Taipan snake behind Alan, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and nodded : "Okay...okay."

"My etiquette officer is not seriously injured. Let him come to see me as soon as he wakes up." Allen lay on the stretcher, gritted his teeth to hold back the pain all over his body, "Lieutenant Colonel Laughlin..."

Lieutenant Colonel Laughlin had already been stunned by the ensuing disasters. After hearing Allen calling his name, he hurried over and leaned over and said, "Your Highness, please order."

"Notify Admiral Balck for me right away, let him..." The side effects of the sedative gradually appeared, Alan started to ring in his ears, and his mind began to buzz, Alan rubbed the center of his brows irritably, "Forget it , let him contact me by himself."

Lieutenant Colonel Laughlin was originally under Admiral Balck's former department. After receiving the order, he quickly agreed: "Yes, I will do it right away."

"Also!" Allen frowned, and asked in a deep voice, "When did you know about me being a guide?"

Lieutenant Colonel Laughlin was puzzled, but he still thought carefully and said cautiously: "To be precise, half an hour ago, I was trying to contact the non-sentry garrison in a nearby station, and wanted them to come to Alice's rescue in advance. It was time to learn from the nearby garrison... about your situation."

Half an hour ago... Lieutenant Colonel Laughlin was an insignificant little character, and his source of information would be one step behind others. In other words, before those people attacked him just now, the secret that he was a guide had already been released up.

Before that, only Pei Yao and the etiquette officer in the academy knew his secrets. Pei Yao was excluded first, and the etiquette officer was always with him, so it was impossible to send news to the outside world, so...

Allen tried his best to keep himself awake. The Campling family wanted to use Pei Xuan to fight against him in a decisive battle against time.

"Your Highness." The doctor couldn't help reminding, "Your mental strength is very unstable now. If you don't receive comprehensive treatment, it may have a permanent impact on your body. You..."

Allen completely calmed down, he turned his head to look at Lieutenant Colonel Laughlin, and ordered: "Give me a pen and paper..."

Lieutenant Colonel Laughlin hurriedly urged the adjutant to hand over the pen and paper. Allen gritted his teeth and propped up his upper body. Everyone around him consciously avoided looking at them. Allen scribbled two lines on the paper and said in a low voice: " Fax to His Majesty."

Lieutenant Colonel Laughlin repeatedly agreed to deal with it himself, while Allen lay back on the stretcher exhausted. At the critical moment of life and death, he had to make sure that he would not be betrayed by Auston again. Pei Yao's heart felt as if a knife had been twisted.

It was two hours later when Alan woke up again. According to the doctor's instructions, Alan should stay in bed 24 hours a day for the next few days. Unfortunately, the current situation is unstable, and all doctor's orders have become nonsense. The doctor tried hard to persuade him Allen withdrew after half a day.

"Wait." Allen called the doctor, "How is the princess?"

The doctor lowered his eyes: "Please rest assured, although there are many wounds on Her Royal Highness, they are not fatal. In addition, Her Highness is in good health. There is no problem at present, and she should recover soon."

"When will he wake up?"

The doctor was unsure: "About... a few hours later?"

Allen hesitated and waved his hand to let the doctor leave. After hearing the news that Allen woke up, the etiquette officer came in. The etiquette officer had a thick bandage on his head, his eyes were full of shame, and Allen was impatient when he was about to say something. Said: "Don't talk nonsense, how is the main star?"

The etiquette officer adjusted his mood and said: "As you expected, His Majesty really wanted to push the matter of concealing that you were a guide back then on you. He wanted everyone to think that you could not accept your awakening as a guide, and was even more angry that you were deprived of it. As the crown prince, he used the late Queen Marianne as a threat to force His Majesty to agree to conceal your identity. Your Majesty is grateful for the relationship with Queen Mary, and cherishes that you are the only descendant of him and Queen Marianne, so he cannot bear to expose all this, and then ..."

Allen sneered: "I knew it."

The etiquette officer had lingering fears: "Fortunately, you contacted Admiral Balck earlier and let him stop His Majesty in time. With your letter, His Majesty was unable to release the news smoothly, but... Your Highness, with all due respect, the situation is still the same now. Very bad for you."

"Those people in the House of Representatives are racking their brains to speak for His Majesty, but...it is almost useless. There are all witnesses and material evidence, and there is no loophole to take advantage of. The most frightening thing is that Admiral Pei Xuan is still there. No one knows what he is doing. To what extent has the penetration of the main star reached? The Senate has thought of countless plans, but they are afraid of Admiral Pei Xuan to proceed... You know, once His Majesty responds, if Admiral Pei Xuan can If you find evidence that His Majesty is lying again, then... Your Majesty will completely lose the trust of the people, and there is really nothing you can do next."

Allen's eyes were cold, because he underestimated Pei Xuan. All along, Allen only thought that Pei Xuan wanted to assassinate Auston, or do something else. Allen never expected that Pei Xuan would be so big. Actions.

Allen hammered the bed hard, and he suddenly realized at this moment that his previous trip to Tara was extremely stupid.

Pei Xuan hadn't done anything these years, not because he was recuperating, but because he was afraid of hurting his son, that's why there was the Pearl incident, and that's why there was the incident of assassinating Anthony later.

Pei Xuan had a weakness that none of the survivors of the expedition had - he had to come to the front of the screen if he wanted revenge, and at the same time he would push Pei Yao in front of everyone.

If one is bad, Pei Yao may become a hostage in the hands of Auston. There may be many things that make Pei Xuan hesitate, but Pei Yao is definitely one of the very important ones.And what did you do?

Inspired the crowd to go to Tara, tried their best to let Pei Xuan know how much he loves Pei Yao and how much he values ​​him, and cleverly revealed his own strength, so that Pei Xuan was convinced that he could protect Pei Yao. So far, Pei Xuan has completely Take it easy.

Allen clenched his fists... Are you crazy?

The etiquette officer understood, and persuaded helplessly: "Your Highness, it's not your fault, even looking at what you did at that time, there was nothing wrong with it. No one would have thought that His Majesty would treat the expeditionary army like that...and no one would To think that Admiral Pei Xuan chose to take revenge like this, even you couldn't have predicted this."

"And now is not the time to think about these things." The etiquette officer said with a heavy heart, worried, "Although this incident has caused a lot of blows to His Majesty, as the crown prince, you are also bearing the condemnation of the people, let alone Mentioning that you are a guide, this... now everyone's eyes have been diverted to you, there are rumors in various versions, of course, it is nothing to cause some negative effects, the most worrying thing is this kind of If the situation continues...", the hostile regime will seize the opportunity and take advantage of the situation to make trouble.

The etiquette officer lowered his eyes: "Please be careful in handling it. If you are not careful... Maybe it is not just His Majesty who fell from the horse."

The plan that began to appear in Allen's mind since the accident began to slowly take shape. Allen closed his eyes and said for a while, "Don't worry, I won't let Auston get involved."

Allen cheered up, got up and said, "Contact Admiral Balck for me."

Not long after the communication was connected, Admiral Balck looked at Allen's pale face anxiously: "How are you? Did that damn medicine hurt you?!"

"I'm fine." Allen didn't have time to say this, and said directly, "My side is doing fine so far...Alice's side also didn't have a guide who was forced to mark, but a lot of sentries were injured, and they have now been sent to Healed, I just learned about it, and it’s all right, what about the White Pagoda?”

Balk's eyes were sad: "The situation over there is very bad. Fortunately, there were no casualties. They benefited from the large garrison and timely rescue. It's just that their guides are too fragile. I heard that many guides need psychological treatment... Forget it , don't talk about these things, how are you going to deal with today's matter?"

"I have to remind you that His Majesty is ready to sacrifice you at any time." Balk couldn't help feeling manic when he thought of the speech Oston asked the News Department to prepare, "How dare he mention Marianne! One of the things I regret the most in my life is marrying Marianne early without using my private rights! He ruined her life, but now I dare to..."

"Grandfather, I remember that Auston gave Anthony to you, didn't he?" Allen interrupted Admiral Balck calmly and asked, "Is he still in your hands now?"

Admiral Balck was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes... His Majesty sent Anthony to me after he was placed under house arrest."

A sneer sneered at the corner of Allen's mouth. Auston was afraid that he would kill the illegitimate son, so he handed him over to Balk in painstaking efforts, in order to make himself afraid, and dare not to treat Anthony for fear of hurting Balk. What to do, but it is a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and now it is convenient for myself.

Allen raised his eyes and ordered lightly: "Then trouble you, execute Anthony in my name."

The etiquette officer turned pale with shock: "Your Highness! There are many remarks that are unfavorable to you now. To say such a thing at this moment is tantamount to..."

"If I don't kill Anthony, will they spare me the crime of concealing my identity as a guide and violating the rules of not entering the White Tower?" Allen sneered repeatedly, "Sooner or later, this notoriety will be borne, rather than waiting to be trapped in the quagmire. If he comes out to stab me again, it’s better to deal with him now.”

"At least I'm still the crown prince. I'd rather kill him now than see him show off when he falls from the horse in the future. I know exactly what the Campling family is thinking. As long as I lose my reputation, Anthony will become the throne again." The first heir, heh... Now I will directly cut off all their delusions." Allen looked at Admiral Balck, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "General Balck."

Admiral Balck's heart suddenly surged with joy, and he stood up to attention and said loudly, "Yes!"

Allen smiled cruelly: "As the crown prince, I now want to sentence the prince Anthony to death for the crime of collaborating with the enemy. Please execute it immediately."

With a smile on his lips, Admiral Balck bowed and said, "I obey, Your Highness."

Allen cut off the communication with Admiral Balck. He pushed the etiquette officer away, pulled out the needle inserted in his arm, and slowly got out of the hospital bed.

Pei Yao's hospital bed was not far away. He had a lot of tubes inserted into his body, and his breathing was much weaker than usual. Alan's fingertips trembled, and he gently touched Pei Yao's face.

Allen tried his best to suppress the tears in his eyes, warning himself over and over again, as long as he was a little negligent, as long as he fell into the clouds, Pei Yao must be the first to be injured.

Allen knows better than anyone that the current situation is very unfavorable to him, but just for Pei Yao, he will grit his teeth and try his best to hold on.

Alan took a deep breath, lowered his head and kissed Pei Yao's slightly cool lips lightly, his voice was inaudible: "Crown Princess... When you wake up, I will let you sit directly on the queen's throne."
