Beasts contend

His Majesty the King quickly approached Fan Dong.

The father and son have not had a good conversation for a long time.

Or should I say, never have.

After hearing His Majesty's words, Fan Dong did not feel relieved.

What His Majesty said is the most credible and least credible reason.

Credibility lies in the fact that this can be explained clearly; it is not credible in that if it is really such a reasonable reason, His Majesty the King does not need to explain it at all.

His Majesty the King came down to explain this matter to him, revealing an extremely important message: this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Fan Dong sent His Majesty the king away with a respectful expression.

The investigation didn't stop, it just missed His Majesty's eyes and ears.

A few days later, Gavin came back with the compiled information.Those things are indeed as His Majesty the King said, and Madam Dinah did it behind the scenes.Gavin even figured out the whereabouts of the spirit wood, because he found a few spirit wood puppets that had been hidden!

These puppets are very similar in size. Looking carefully, they look a bit like the long-dead Queen Alyssa.

Even if it is not Queen Alisa, these spirit wood puppets are all women.

If Mrs. Dinah wanted to resurrect Lauren Edward, Edward's father, then the gender of these puppets wouldn't make sense.And through interrogation, Gavin knew that Mrs. Dinah was very "single-minded" and made puppets like this.

Could it be that Queen Alyssa is what Lady Dinah really wants to resurrect?

Fan Dong paused, a strange pain spread in his chest.No matter in that life, he has never really gotten along with his mother, so he will always only have a ignorant impression of "mother".

That's why he could identify with his stepmother so quickly.

It was also the reason Colin Lane was so close to Lady Dinah.

He was always too indifferent to the word "mother".

Fan Dong sighed.Sometimes you can't blame Mrs. Dinah for keeping everyone secret. After all, if you tell him this matter, he will be in a dilemma. Those who agree are ashamed of the people of the empire, but those who disagree are unfilial!

After discussing with Edward, Fan Dong decided to stop the investigation and at the same time cut off the channels of communication between Mrs. Dinah and those people.

He and Edward made time to meet Lady Dinah together.

"Ms. Dinah" looked a little tired, she looked at Fan Dong and Edward with kind eyes, but it was different from usual.

Fearing that Mrs. Dinah would think too much, Fan Dong told Mrs. Dinah what he found out, saying that he and Edward already knew everything, and told her not to worry about the past.

Mrs. Dinah did not relieve her sorrow because of Fan Dong's explanation.

Edward saw it.

Not long after Edward and Fan Dong left together, they turned back alone.

Edward saw Mrs. Dinah sitting in front of the window, leaning quietly on the window sill, and the outside was full of delicate fire roses.I don't know when it started, but his mother began to like this flower, which is bright and beautiful, and it is not at all different from her gentle demeanor and personality.He didn't know when it started, but his father and mother talked less and less frequently. In his impression, father and mother would face each other coldly when there were no outsiders.

In the same way, without knowing when it started, his mother liked Fan Dong more than him—even more than everything else.His mother seemed to want to give Fan Dong all the good things, and gave Fan Dong the best things she could find as soon as possible.After she woke up more than two years ago, her first reaction was that he was not good enough to Fan Dong and asked him to leave Fan Dong.

She never thought about whether his son wanted the marriage contract or not.

He was forced to accept at the beginning and he was ordered to be dismissed in the first two years, but his opinion was not considered.

why?

Why is this happening?

Could it really be that his mother cared so much for the late Queen Alyssa?

Edward knocked lightly on the door.

Lady Dinah turned to look at the door.

Seeing Edward, Mrs. Dinah's face showed a trace of panic.After being found out by Peter Lane, she was always restless, always feeling that things would be discovered at any time.

Fan Dong's arrival confirmed this point.

Both Fan Dong and Edward already knew about the puppet.

If they continue to investigate, they will definitely find that the person they really love is long gone, and the culprit is her!

How to do?

What should I do?

Madam Dinah stood up and looked directly at Edward.

Edward said: "Mother, can you tell me the real facts?" He stared at Mrs. Dana, "Colin, in order not to worry and embarrass you, he will directly tell you everything he has investigated. Because Colin loves you , and trust you, even though you have done so many things without telling him, he is still willing to respect and love you as a mother."

Madam Dinah covered her lips with tears in her eyes.

Unknowingly, both Edward and Fan Dong have grown up. They have grown up to have their own thoughts and enough strength. They are no longer the little dolls who listen to whatever she says.

In retrospect, her arrangement for Edward and Fan Dong was not so much for their own good and to avoid possible bad luck, but rather to satisfy her own desire.

She knew that she might never see Dinah again in this life, so she hoped that her little son could be with Dinah's son forever.

She never thought about them.

Even everything she did after waking up was causing trouble for them.

Obviously there can be a better solution.

For example, confess everything and discuss it with them.

She insisted on doing so many useless things by herself, in the final analysis, she just wanted to soothe the pain and guilt in her heart.

How long will she continue to deceive these two children like this?

If one day in the future Edward discovers this fact himself, will it affect the relationship between him and Fan Dong?

"Ms. Dinah" raised her head and looked at Edward.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and she slowly said, "Edward, I have something to tell you..."

When Edward left home, his steps were a little heavy.

It turns out that this is the truth.

His mother is long gone.

He no longer has any relatives in this world.And the person who caused all this was Fan Dong's mother.

What was his mother like?

Edward closed his eyes, and the real Mrs. Dinah's smile appeared in his mind.Gentle, beautiful, with a light glance at you, you will feel that the sunshine of the whole world has come to you.

No wonder.

No wonder the spiritual bond between him and his mother gradually disappeared as he got older.

He always thought it was the only way to grow up.

Looking back now, it was actually his mother saying goodbye to him.

His mother was so kind that she could sell her body to others.

How damn kind!

Queen Alisa has been trying to find a way to leave his mother's body, but no matter how hard she tries, she can't sense the existence of his mother at all.

His mother disappeared completely.

Perhaps, there is no hope.

It was his mother's choice.

Did she think of him or his father when she made the choice to satisfy Queen Alyssa?

In other words, when his mother married his father, did he have real love—or was it just to make Queen Alisa happily marry His Majesty the King?If that was the case, his birth might not have been expected from the very beginning.

Therefore, when choosing, his mother would not think of him at all.

Edward walked back to the military headquarters with heavy steps.

I don't know if it was because of Fan Dong's frequent visits, after the soldiers in the military department saluted solemnly, they all added with a smile: "Good morning, my lord."

Edward nodded at them.

I met many people along the way, and everyone greeted him happily and warmly.

Not far away, Jared ran out and said happily: "My lord, Deputy Commander Donald has been out for a long time, and he needs to send someone to follow up. Look..."

His expression expresses the entanglement and anticipation very well, the thoughts in his heart are completely written on his face, and his brows are even raised.

Originally, the frost was climbing up to Edward's heart little by little, but the ice slowly melted along the way.

Seeing the big words "Send me, send me" engraved on Jared's face, Edward even felt teasing: "Surely we should send someone over there, it just so happens that Gavin should go over there recently to get something, so just Let Gavin go."

Jared's face fell completely.

A smile escaped Edward's lips.

This is the real life, there are people you like, there are things you want to do, you will be happy, you will be sad, and you will look forward to it.

This world, after all, is full of beautiful things.

Edward said: "You can go there too. I don't have anything to do here recently. You can take a few days off, so as not to be reported that you delay your business."

Hearing Edward's teasing tone, Jared's eyes widened like a ghost.

After understanding what Edward meant, Jared was ecstatic, and said happily: "Thank you, sir!" He did not forget to run back, "My lord should also remember to take a vacation for yourself and stay with His Majesty more, as far as I know Knowing that His Majesty is the dream lover of most people in the empire!"

Edward said: "Thank you for reminding me, I will consider it."

Jared felt something was different about Edward.

It seems that I have finally untied the knot that has been pent up for many years, and I can move forward in big strides.

Jared was happy in his heart, saluted Edward with a straight military salute, and ran away in a hurry.

He had to pack up his things so he could find Donald quickly.

Edward looked at Jared's disappearing back, and felt inexplicably happy in his heart.

Sometimes it is so easy to be happy and joyful, as long as you can see that one person, you are completely satisfied.

Edward strode to his office.

Even though they had just separated, he already missed Fan Dong a little bit.As long as he finishes his business quickly, he can have lunch with Fan Dong again!

Sometimes happiness is actually that simple.

As long as you don't wallow in the sadness of loss and not getting it, your eyes will suddenly open up.
