Chapter 74: This child can't be left behind
It will be discovered that Judy is also an accident, because Brant is not there, she is recklessly looking for her way out of the palace in the clothes of a palace maid, but accidentally bumps into Eve, who is walking with Alan.
Judy had wanted to leave Brandt for a long time, and she secretly observed him and grabbed some tricks, originally planning that if he didn't let him leave, he would make it public, but she didn't expect to meet Eve and accidentally discover her identity.
In order to be able to leave the oppressive palace, Judy reached a cooperation agreement with Alan. When those letters, both real and forged, and the tokens of the blood and demon envoys were sent to the king, the crime was almost completely implemented.
Brandt stood in front of the king, looking at the things in disbelief, and it quickly occurred to him that it was most likely Judy's doing. She actually betrayed herself! But how did Eren find her? Judy alone could not get such detailed and concrete evidence.
General Top, of Landis, also coincidentally sent a document thanking Gary for his help, and spending a long text complimenting Ian.
The king was clearly disappointed in Brandt, he was too uncontrollable of his own * and ambitions. The order to abolish Brandt's status as crown prince and his succession to the throne was soon delivered, and Brandt was handed over to Duke Edson to take to his possessions and castle for re-teaching.
Alan had wanted to do this for a long time, and he sat and drank tea with Carl and Lena. Lena baked cookies in the shape of small animals with great interest, and they were so sweet that they were about to fall out.
"I'm sorry for you this time." Alan and Carl silently exchanged a tacit look, and Carl shook his head, "I also want to thank you for helping me rescue Lena, otherwise I wouldn't dare to take these things out." ”
After Carl told him that Brant was about to attack Eve, Allen asked Carl to silently monitor Brant's behavior. Carl has a special invisibility ghost potion, which is hidden in Brant's study and cannot be detected at all.
Because the taste of the biscuits in his mouth was so sweet, Alan took a sip of tea, and his whole face was weirdly distorted, and there was even sugar added to this tea! He watched Carl silently eat the sweet biscuits and tea, and couldn't help but worry about whether his healthy teeth would turn into caries.
Brant's Sima Zhao's heart he had long been aware of, since he was in Otto. Every night when he entered Eve's room, he could feel Lloyd hiding under the bed, but out of the provocation of the demonstration and the desire to wait for their next move, he never broke it. If he was really a good brother, how could he know that a person with blood broke into his sister's room every night and never said anything.
His cooperation with Ruth deliberately broke the matter between him and Eve on a moonlit night, and let him marry Eve, I am afraid that it was also something he planned, the purpose was to get Queen Catherine's magic. Alan decided not to try any of the food on the table, and the taste was really frustrating.
Later, in Landis, Brant also deliberately found someone to impersonate Eve. Alan thought with some sarcasm that this was really his stupidest behavior. The smell of Eve's blood, he could make out with his eyes closed, and he couldn't be mistaken at all. But on second thought, it's a good thing, as it drives the process of his and Eve's time together, and he may be able to keep Brant alive for that.
"Master, Madame is awake. Skull One was accompanying her. Desi stepped forward, and Desi was one of the few skeletons Alan had left. When the storage ring was destroyed, most of his treasured skeletons and ghosts disappeared with him, and only Desi was spared by the errands he had sent out beforehand.
"Ma'am?" Carl asked Alan in surprise, as if a duck egg had been stuffed in his mouth, "You ...... Already married? When is the matter with that princess? ”
"Yes." Alan spat out a few dynamite-like words, "We were married not long ago. ”
"That's really...... It's just wonderful. Carl didn't know how to bless Alan for a while, he knocked on Lina, obviously he was much better than Allen, how could he marry a daughter-in-law in less than a year, he still has a long way to go, "I don't have any gifts, I brought a crystal ball this time in a hurry." ”
This crystal ball, they had first seen in Cal's magic shop. Able to teleport across the continent of Luan, from the Jonal Valley in Gary to the Stowe River east of Otto, and the Black Tower in Landis.
"Girls love that." Inside the crystal ball glowing pink, snowflake-shaped fragments slowly fall.
Alan accepted Carl's gift, "I'll give it to Eve." Also, Carl, I want you to do me a favor. ”
********
"Your Royal Highness, the Queen, please come over." Eve was about to go to find Alan, but was stopped by a palace maid.
"Is there something going on?" It stands to reason that Helena should have taken a nap as well.
"The queen said that she had not seen the princess for a long time, and that she wanted to talk to you about something while the duke was away." The palace maid replied, "Because it is really inconvenient to say some women's affairs in front of the duke." ”
"One, you go and tell Allen, I'm going to my mother's palace now, and I won't go to him." Eve said to Skeleton One, who was diligently guarding her side.
"Yes, ma'am. Please be sure to stay safe. Skull One consciously stepped aside.
Eve followed the maid directly to Helena's bedchamber, and as soon as she walked further, the door behind her was shut.
Eve turned her head in surprise, and a familiar voice came from overhead, "Mandy, tie her up." ”
"Mom?" Eve raised her head in astonishment, Helena had a cold face, as pale and terrifying as a female ghost, Mandy suddenly stepped forward from behind, tied Eve's hands firmly with a rope and pressed them behind her, Eve looked at Helena in panic, "Mom, what are you doing?" ”
"This kid can't stay." Helena walked slowly up to Eve and looked at her stomach steadily, like a wolf looking at fresh food.
"But, that's not what you said in the first place." Eve had an ominous premonition, and she stepped back in fear, only to be held down by Mandy and the others on the shoulders. She watched anxiously as Helena touched her slightly bulging lower abdomen, "You said at the beginning that I could give birth to him. ”
"That's because the Duke is watching, and we have to hold him steady for a while to stall for time." Helena said, "Do you think neither I nor your father know? There's a little vampire living in it. ”
"No, you must have misunderstood." Eve's defense was very weak, although she knew that Eren was a blood family, and the child she gave birth to was likely to be the same blood clan as him. But still...... I still can't help but think on the bright side, maybe it is still possible to give birth to normal human children.
"Stop quibbling, Brant has already sued us in 1510." Helena looked at Eve gloomily, her fingers running back and forth on her stomach, as if she was going to punch her suddenly, or cut it with her fingernails, and pull out the sinful child, "Unmarried and pregnant, how did I let the etiquette teacher teach you since I was a child?" You've literally disgraced our faces, how could I have given birth to a daughter like you. ”
"Mother......" Eve's words were like sand falling from the wind, and she couldn't believe that her mother, who had always loved her, would say such cruel and indifferent words.
"Your father is right, he should send you to the Dragon Cave together." Helena removed her fingers from her stomach, but the fear in Eve's heart did not decrease at all, but grew like crazy, "It is also a kind of atonement for you to accompany Lauren with this little thing that has insulted the blood of the royal family of Gari." ”
"Don't do that." Eve was caught by Mandy and another palace maid, and she couldn't go to Helena to intercede, "It's all my fault, can you wait for me to give birth to the baby?" As soon as I give birth, I'll go to Lauren's, I promise...... Don't let me take him with you. ”
"Eve, don't you understand?" Helena turned her head indifferently and said without sorrow or joy, "Gary has believed in the God of Light for generations, and the royal family will not allow a child with blood blood to be born, which is an insult to the royal bloodline. Whether you go to the Dragon Cave or not, this child can't stay. ”
"No......" Eve couldn't help but think of Alan, like a last straw, "Alan, he won't agree." This is his child, and he will not let you kill him like this. Eve thought of something again, "He brought me back from Lauren in the first place, and he can do it this time." ”
"Little fool. It's not for him to call the shots. Everyone has their own position to stick to, he is the duke of Otto, and naturally he has to do what a duke should do. We have written to the king and queen of Otto to ask them to admonish Alan, and Alan has promised His Majesty that you will dissolve the marriage contract when you arrive in the Dragon Cave, and you will not be involved in this matter casually. Helena smiled softly, "With his status, status and power, there are many beautiful and charming women who are willing to give birth to offspring for him, of course, there will be no such one." ”
Eve looked at Helena in despair, "We've already figured it out, and when you leave, we'll pick a few more beautiful women for him." Men are forgetful creatures, and it won't be long before he completely forgets you. ”
"No, it won't be." Eve said very unconfidently, although she knew that Eren liked her, she was not sure that he would always like her.
"Mandy, send her to General Merson and have the General escort her to the Dragon's Cave." Helena turned around coolly, didn't listen to Eve's plea behind her, and walked straight all the way to the room, as if all the strength in her body had been drained, "Your Majesty, you did as you said." ”
"Okay." Although Lauren's problem and the little vampire's problem were solved, the king still couldn't be happy. After all, it was his biological daughter who watched grow up, "Helena, I've worked hard for you, go down and rest." ”
Helena nodded weakly, as if she could be blown by the wind at any moment.
"Taking a step back and thinking about it, we are now ...... And Ian. "Brandt was punished, Eve was sent to the Dragon's Cave, and now Ian is the only one left," said the King, "General Hoff said that Ian was a malleable talent." ”
"Then let General Hough ...... Well, train him well. Helena felt no joy at all, all she could think about was that her children had left, and she was left alone.
"I want you to put more effort into it." The king's palm rested on Helena's shoulder, like a silently supported pillar.
