The King's Follower [Rebirth]

William escaped from Edward's room, followed the outer wall of the palace, and jumped directly into the garden.He hid in a place where no one would find him. After a long time, he adjusted from the shocking feeling of being touched by Edward just now, and suddenly felt a long-lost shyness.

He lowered his head and looked at the barely noticeable crack on his lower abdomen, thinking of last year when Matthew became an adult, he and a group of orc servants went to visit him at St. Solsis University.The room was full of adult and underage orc servants who had been together for several years, and the adult Matthew smiled wretchedly, and took out a thick picture album. The cover of the picture album was plain, and the contents inside But extraordinarily explosive.Everyone was blushing, but the adult orcs were obviously aroused by the album, while the underage orcs were simply embarrassed.

Thinking of the content of the adult orcs’ chat that he heard when he was reading the picture book that day, William touched his belly with some worry, and then gently poked open the crack with his paw to look, thinking, here, really Is there going to be a big bump?

"The bigger the Asian orcs, the more they like it! You'll know when you're an adult." The obscene laughter of adult orcs rang in William's mind again, but he didn't understand why the bigger the more, the more they liked it. However, everyone said so , then I hope I can grow up a little bit, Edward is a sub-orc man, he hopes that Edward can like himself more.

William stayed in the garden for a long time, knowing that he felt that he was not so embarrassed, so he changed back to human form, returned to the palace, and was stopped by the guards just after entering the door, saying that the king wanted to find him.

William came to the king's study, where several ministers were discussing state affairs with the king.He sat quietly at the side and waited for a while. Fortunately, the ministers quickly finished their discussions and left the study one by one.

Seeing his beloved son, the king eased his expression, beckoned him to stand in front of him, took out another piece of paper and handed it to him, "You are going to be an adult soon, this is the nobles who are willing to provide you with space, Take a look, pick one you like, so that you can prepare early, let you communicate more and cultivate relationships during the period before you become an adult, so that you can relax and live more easily when you become an adult a little."

William glanced at the list. Of course, the queen was at the top, and each of the following ones was a high-level orc with a high position and a reputation in the empire.He pushed the list back and said firmly: "Father, I have already thought about the candidate. I hope to grow up in the space of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. After all, he is the sub-orc man I have been most familiar with these years, I believe In his space, I can relax very much."

The king's expression froze, he narrowed his eyes, and asked, "Is this Edward's initiative?"

"I thought about it a long time ago." William said. In recent years, the king has never directly told him his identity, but he has understood that William already knows his identity, and he has hinted more than once that when he becomes an adult , will give him the status and status he deserves.Therefore, William has long started to communicate with the king from the perspective of the crown prince.And the king's words are obviously thinking that it was Edward who seduced and deceived himself, "Since I came to the palace, I have made up my mind. As long as His Royal Highness is willing, I must grow up in his space in the future. If it is not for him If so, it’s not a big deal if I’m not in the space to grow up, and it’s not like the empire didn’t have orcs not to spend their adult years in the space, just get over it.”

The king's expression was very ugly, and for a moment, William felt that he was going to get angry, but in the end, he just stuffed the paper into William's arms again: "Look at it for yourself, don't rush to draw conclusions. "

William shook his head, put the paper back on his desk, and said, "I'm leaving first, Father, I haven't finished the homework assigned by the teacher."

The king's face sank, but before he could say anything, William had already left the study quickly.

A few days later, Ralph's caravan came to the capital. Since the crown prince returned to the palace, with the help of Idris, various shops of the Green family began to establish a foothold in the capital. Up to now, there have been Not a small scale.Ralph came this time, apparently to visit his younger brother, but in fact he came to see Edward.

So, Edward found an excuse to leave the palace, came to a shop of Green's house, and met Ralph.The closer William came of age, the more tense the atmosphere in the country, especially in the capital.According to the trajectory of the previous life, the period from William's adulthood to the queen's rebellion was only three months. It is conceivable that several major forces in the country were probably ready before William's adulthood, and the king appointed William as the crown prince. It was just the first step to break the balance. Thinking about it, after his death in the last life, even if the king wiped out the queen's rebels, the domestic situation would still not be optimistic.Fortunately, in this life, Edward took the lead and cooperated with the king to slowly drive the power of the Doherty Republic out of the empire.

Two years ago, the leader of the Liberal Party suffered a sudden illness and died suddenly in office. Although August was too young to join the party and participate in politics, he had long coveted the power of the Liberal Party.He didn't have much loyalty to the empire or to Doherty at first, and his only obsession in reviving his life was to take revenge on Ablos.Edward is willing to help him. With the help of him, the Green family, and the Conservative Party, it has been operating for several years. Now, many senior officials in the Liberal Party are under the control of August. Although he cannot directly come forward, he can already Controlled half of the Liberal Party.

"Once William becomes an adult, you must strike first, so that the king will not dare to touch you easily." Ralph said to Edward.

"We can push out the queen first." Edward said, "The Ablos family has been plotting against them for a long time, and the king must be very willing to take care of them. Besides, the queen and the Abros family killed my biological parents. It makes people feel cruel, but bearing the humiliation for such a long time will win me a lot of sympathy."

Idris continued: "When the queen is settled, you can take over the power of the Ablos family. After all, you are the grandson of the Duke of Parma, and the other Ablos will be imprisoned for treason. They can only rely on you. In this way, the king will not dare to touch you easily."

"We can get in touch with them first, so that we can distinguish which ones can be reused and which ones should be completely discarded." Ralph said, spreading out a piece of paper, and the three of them began to analyze in detail.

Edward was going back to the palace before evening class. He asked Idris and Ralph to come up with a final result, and he was about to leave.Before leaving, Ralph called to him: "Bryant misses you very much, but at this critical moment, he dare not write to you, for fear of leaving something behind."

Edward nodded: "It is reasonable to be cautious." He asked again, "How is his health now? I heard from Idris that he is pregnant. How many eggs are there this time? When will the children break their shells?" ?”

Ralph showed a satisfied smile: "There are three eggs this time. They will hatch in two months."

Edward sighed: "Three eggs... the burden is too much. At this time, you should stay by his side."

"No matter how many children he has, you will always be the most important one in his heart." Ralph said.

"Why, are you jealous?" Edward smiled, "Please help me bring him greetings, and congratulations on becoming a father again."

Edward returned to the palace, and before he could change his clothes, he was called away by the king.He knew what the king was looking for him for. In the past few days, William told everyone that he was going to grow up in the space of the crown prince. After a few days, everyone in the capital knew about it, and several grand duchesses and grand duchesses found the king. They beat around the bush and expressed their reluctance to help William. Although the king did not officially state that William would grow up in the crown prince's space, none of them wanted to put a hot face on a cold ass and take their own money in the face of William's obvious reluctance and disgust. its shame.

While Edward said calmly that he would go to the king's study immediately after changing his clothes, he sent someone to find William.It's not that he used William, it's just that in this situation, only with William present can he escape unscathed.

Sure enough, upon entering the study, Edward was greeted by the king's furious face.

"Do you think that if William is coaxed into your side, I will have nothing to do with you." The king said in a cold voice, "Don't force me, Edward, I originally wanted to give you a bright future, you don't have to Ruin the future."

"I have never coaxed William." Edward glanced at the clock on the fireplace, counting the time when William arrived, "I have always treated him sincerely. I think I have already told you, My only wish is to become a priest and concentrate on studying theology. I have no interest in politics at all."

"Then issue a statement that you will not be involved in William's coming of age," said the king.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid I can't do this," Edward said. "Isn't William's intention at this time? And I don't want to refuse him."

The king curled up his mouth contemptuously: "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You want to be William's lover, manipulate him through this relationship, and drive a wedge between our father and son. Let me tell you..."

The door of the study was opened again, and William squeezed past the guards who tried to stop him, and rushed into the room.
