The crown prince's room was still the same room, but it was too late for a few hours to change.When they were halfway there, they saw the queen rushing over with a few servants and a large group of soldiers from the king's guard.

Edward immediately grabbed William, backed away quickly, and shouted loudly: "Guards, protect the crown prince!" He had to be so vigilant. In the church just now, he clearly accused the queen of being a traitor to the country. I am afraid that these remarks have already spread. When we arrived at the palace, it seemed that the king hadn't had time to control the queen, but after seeing Edward, he calmed down, and it took only a few minutes to deal with the queen. Naturally, the queen couldn't sit still, and now she looked like she was going to fight to the death. Either they want to take the opportunity to kill William and leave, or they want to take Edward away like in the previous life. In the future, they will resolutely refuse to recognize Edward's true identity, just say that it is the king's conspiracy, and continue to use Edward's status as the crown prince to contend with the king.

The guards in the corridor were a little confused, but they still followed the former crown prince's order and surrounded him, but they didn't know whether to stop the queen, after all, the queen is also a majesty now.Edward complained about the slow motion of the king in his heart, and pulled William behind him to protect him. The queen would not hurt his life. After all, his former crown prince status was also a powerful weapon, but William was different. , the queen will never leave William's life behind.

"Edward, I am so disappointed!" The queen snapped, "You are so bewitched by this lowly illegitimate child! Come here, I will never allow this little bastard to appear by your side again! Edward, come here! "

Edward ignored the queen. He observed the other party's movements vigilantly, turned his head slightly, and said to William behind him: "If something goes wrong, you should go to the king immediately, understand..."

More than a dozen ice arrows passed through the huge windows on both sides of the palace corridor with a sharp whistling sound, and shot straight at William.The crown prince's guards reacted quickly, blocked William and Edward, and cut off the Frostbolt with their knives.

"The queen is treason!" Edward shouted immediately, "The queen is treason! She is going to murder the crown prince! Escort! Escort!"

Several guards who were not too big in animal shape immediately transformed into animal shapes and stood between the two camps.However, at this moment, a few orcs who had transformed into beasts jumped in from the window, opening their mouths with billowing flames.The sub-orcs screamed, and the two crown prince's guards immediately turned into an ice wall to protect the sub-orcs, and several guards rushed to the attackers, pushing them out of the corridor.The wall on this side of the corridor collapsed due to the fight, causing the sub-orc servants to scream in horror.

Edward calmly retreated into the protective circle. In this situation, he didn't know whether he should let William go. He was worried that William would encounter other ambushes from the queen on his way to find the king.

"Don't be afraid." He turned his head and said to William behind him, "His Majesty's people will definitely be back soon."

"I'm not afraid." William said, "Don't stand so close, you are a sub-orc, I am an orc, I don't need you to protect me."

Edward laughed: "Don't forget, you are not yet an adult, if you want to protect me, wait until you become an adult..."

He suddenly felt a huge pull, pulling him out of the protective circle and throwing him into the fierce fighting circle.He fell fiercely on the ground covered with broken bricks and tiles, several water whips passed over his body, and a fireball hit a place far away from his legs, and the high temperature swept by the fireball immediately scalded him skin.

"Your Highness!" William shouted in panic, transforming into a beast and rushing over, but was stopped by another guard protecting them.

Edward's mind went blank. He subconsciously glanced at William, and he felt a strong malice coming from the other side. He turned his head and only had time to see a barbed tail swinging towards him. , the owner of the tail seemed to be a thug who wanted to attack another queen, but Edward subconsciously understood that this person just wanted to kill himself.He wanted to run, but the speed of the tail was too fast, so fast that he had no time to react, and he was about to cut himself off in the middle——

William kicked away the guard who blocked him fiercely, kicked his hind legs, met the tail, and blocked its way. The next second, William stretched out his sharp claws—the underage body only affected his element. The storage capacity did not affect his sharp claws and fangs and barbed tail. He bit the tail and tore off a large piece of meat. At the same time, the fingernails that popped out like sharp knives penetrated deeply The tail almost penetrated, William pulled it hard, and amidst the man's screams, the tail was almost cut off by William.

Edward stared blankly at William, and after doing all this, William immediately changed back to human form, picked up Edward who was a little panicked and retreated, William was an orc after all, even though he was not an adult, it was more than enough to hold Edward.

At this moment, a group of guards suddenly rushed out to join the battle. The superiority in numbers allowed them to quickly subdue the queen's men, and the queen left the corridor when she realized that something was wrong.The captain of the guard did not send anyone to chase after the queen. Seeing that the corridor was safe, he immediately came to William and said, "His Royal Highness, the queen is treasonous. For your safety, His Majesty the King asks you to go to his study and stay with him." Together, wait until His Majesty cleans up all the traitors belonging to the queen in the palace."

Edward looked at the chief guard, suddenly understood everything.With the character of a king, after the news that he exposed the queen's conspiracy in public in the church was sent back to the palace, no matter how angry he was, he would never forget to do his business. All in one go, the king has always known the queen's treasonous intentions, so how could he allow her to threaten his favorite heir?It was impossible for the queen to rush in front of William.

Then, all of this was intentional by the king. He wanted to kill himself in the chaos and plant it on the queen. Then, the person who killed the god-favored person was the queen. It was the queen who felt resentful when she saw the plot was revealed, and killed him. If Edward betrayed him, then the death of the god-favored man has nothing to do with the Lancaster family, but it can arouse the people's resentment and disgust towards the Abros family, and the soldiers who obeyed Abros' orders will also be afraid of He was reprimanded by Orgunra and shaken his loyalty.

Edward's face was ugly. Everything has been going so smoothly these years, which made him forget that the king has been the commander of the empire for decades. The trap, and I was lucky to be able to survive under such carelessness.

William held Edward's hand tightly. He looked around slowly, and his eyes finally fell on the soldier whose tail he had just injured. This man was not the queen's man, but a guard sent by the king to the crown prince.He turned his head to look at Edward again, and asked softly, "Dian...Edward, how do you feel? Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Edward shook his head: "It's just that my leg hurts a little from the fall, but it's not a big problem."

William pursed his lips, and stretched out his hand to touch Edward's face. He felt a sting on his face. Only then did Edward realize that a small piece of skin had been scratched on his face. He raised his hand to hold William's hand, only then did he realize that His hands were shaking so badly that he could only smile helplessly.

William's expression became serious and stern. Although this face still had baby fat, the sternness and seriousness were not compromised because of this, on the contrary, it had the air of a king.He let go of Edward's hand and drew out the chief guard's sharp saber. The chief guard raised his hand to block it, but when he met William's eyes, he could only let go of his hand and whispered, "Your Highness? "

William ignored him and went straight to the guard. The guard had turned back into a human form, and the wound on his tail had been transferred to his back. His companion was giving him medicine to stop the bleeding.

"His Royal Highness?" The man hurriedly got up, and grinned a little because of the pain of the wound, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I..."

The shiny blade flashed a white light in the air, followed by a head that fell heavily on the ground with a dull sound, followed by a body that lost its head, with blood spurting violently from the empty neck. William quickly dodged the blood, with a disgusted expression on his face, watching the blood stain the ground red.

There was silence in the corridor that had turned into ruins, and everyone stared wide-eyed in horror, looking at William who had just beheaded a person himself.They were not shocked by the fact that Prince William, who was underage, actually killed someone. Beastmen have been creatures eager for battle and blood since birth. William, who has watched countless battles, has long been concerned about death and corpses There is no more fear and nausea when you see it for the first time.They were just shocked at why the crown prince would behead a guard. After all, this man was still fighting for him and the queen's people just now. Now, the crown prince is indiscriminate. There seems to be no reason. At a moment that no one could think of, He chopped off his head cleanly.

"Your Highness?" the chief guard murmured, "My God... Your Highness, what are you doing?"

"This man is a traitor to the empire." William shook off the blood on the knife, and said simply, glanced at his body, and immediately turned away, as if feeling extremely disgusted, "I saw with my own eyes that he will The god-favored person who is deeply favored by Orgonla, that is, His Excellency Edward, pulled him to the battle position of the orcs, intending to take advantage of the chaos to kill him."

"Oh my God!" The sub-orcs exclaimed, the young ones were already crying, they were so scared that they forgot to cry just now, and now they realized that they hid in the arms of the elder servant, sobbing softly up.

William continued: "The Favored One is a gift from Orgona to the empire and the Lancaster family. His Excellency Edward will assist me in becoming the great king of the empire in the future. This person's attempt to kill the Favored One is to make the Empire, Let the Lancaster family lose the favor of Orgunra! It's so vicious to the extreme!"

"This, this is probably a misunderstanding..." The head guard was sweating profusely.

"Are you saying that I'm really lying?" William snapped, "Do you mean that I would hurt someone who just protected me for no reason?"

"No! Of course not!" The chief guard apologized again and again, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I'm not questioning everything you said."

William ignored him, gave him the knife, and walked to Edward who had been helped by August, "Let's go, let's go find father." He said.

Edward stared at William for a long time. This child had just protected him in the most powerful and extreme way.This made his eyes heat up, and he was almost moved to tears.

William seemed to be aware of the strong emotion in Edward's eyes, and his face turned red immediately, and his eyes dodged.He had just posted a message about the prestige of the crown prince, but when facing Edward, he became a shy child again.

"Let's go, Your Highness." Edward took the initiative to stand behind him and smiled.William glanced at him and turned his head quickly, but his pace slowed down quietly.
