Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 12: There is a problem with the brain
"Besides, you also saw the kid..."
Doyle sighed in pain.
"God, when we were fourteen or five years old, how could we be so complicated, shouldn't we be all simple and stupid, impulsive and lustful?"
He looked at Glover angrily, seeking approval:
"There is nothing that can't be solved by going to Hongfang Street at night, right?"
To his surprise, Glover, who had always responded negatively, spoke this time.
"It's not us," the reticent vanguard hummed coldly, turned his head to the side:
"Just you."
D.D's smile disappeared instantly.
At this moment, another voice sounded abruptly:
"Everything is fine?"
Doyle and Glover were shocked!
For one second, the two of them were at the same time, turning in the direction of the iron gate.
I saw the highest commander of the royal guard, the captain of the guard, Lord Adrian standing at the iron gate, accompanied by the two entourages, looking at them with a smile.
If Doyle was struck by lightning, he first tried to squeeze out a smile, and then strenuously his face when he felt wrong, stuttering:
"Ai, Ed... team, team, team... captain, sir?"
Glover was also taken aback, but he quickly reacted:
"Sir."
Adrian nodded and walked in with a smile. People around recognized him and saluted him.
"Everyone is busy, what are you two doing?"
The smile on Doyle's face froze.
He quickly stood still and stepped forward:
"Ahem...We are evaluating, assessing the defense loopholes of Mindis Hall, and making plans for the future sentry..."
But Glover spoke stiffly, covering Doyle's voice:
"We pretend to be busy, sir."
"Then avoid the levy of the logistics wing."
As soon as this statement came out, Captain Adrian's smile froze for a second.
Doyle shook his whole body and looked at his companion in disbelief.
At that moment, there was an inexplicable tremor at first, and then Doyle, who was so desperate, wanted to slap Glover to death.
Then shoot yourself to death.
Amidst the unspeakable silence and embarrassment, at least the experienced Adrian first reacted:
"Oh, you are all from...Malles?"
Doyle, in a sad mood, felt that the captain did not mean to be held accountable, so he quickly remedied it:
"Well, ah... Lord Mallos is inside, it seems..."
Glover's answer is as simple as always:
"I will report."
But Adrian stopped him:
"Wait."
The highest commander of the Royal Guard put his hands on his back, walked slowly towards the opponent, and squinted his sturdy figure:
"Are you Karen Glover of Vanguard Wing?"
Glover looked solemnly:
"Yes."
Adrian nodded, nostalgic in his eyes: "Very good."
"I know your grandfather."
"Forty years ago, as the watchman, he personally pushed me into the guard."
Doyle's face changed on one side.
The way he looked at Glover immediately changed.
Adrian sighed:
"He is a harsh man, but he deserves respect."
Glover's eyes moved:
"Yes."
"I hope you are respected like him," Adrian said in a cordial and friendly tone:
"But...you don't have to be as harsh as him."
"In the team, be a gentle and easy person, you will find that you will gain more."
Glover gave a slight shock, and his answer was slightly cramped:
"Yes, yes."
Adrian nodded and looked at Doyle.
The latter immediately stiffened unnaturally like a poisoned mouse.
Adrian laughed:
"So, you are the...D.D?"
Doyle's mouth twitches and his smile is awkward:
"Yes, sir, sir... But, that is, it is... everyone is calling for fun..."
His voice is very weak, getting weaker and weaker.
"Bridge told me about you." Adrian said leisurely.
"What?"
Doyle's eyes lit up, sweeping away the timidity before:
"Really?"
He looked forward a little: "Well, what did the chief say about me..."
"He said the first thing you wanted to go to was Vanguard Wing," Adrian said calmly:
"After losing the election, he had to go to his guard wing."
Glover glanced at Doyle subconsciously.
At that moment, D.D's face was flushed.
"Sir, I, I..."
But Adrian is a serious color:
"It is not shameful to admit failure."
He said slowly:
"If you can accept failure, you are worthy of success."
"Just like doing a good'guard' first, then there is a'pioneer'."
Adrian's sudden harshness made Doyle taut his body subconsciously:
"Yes, sir."
Adrian nodded, and reconsidered the two of them.
"You are very young, you are both important arms of Mallos, but also a reliable sword of the kingdom," Adrian regained his kindness:
"Go harder."
"Yes, sir!" This was Doyle who was silent.
"Yes." This is Glover who is still stiff.
Adrian smiled slightly.
"Also, don't be caught by your master when you are lazy." At this moment, Adrian suddenly turned his head and looked far away intently:
"Especially... he is standing behind you."
Doyle and Glover were shocked and turned around.
Hiding behind a tree, Thales, who was suddenly called Po Xingzang, was also taken aback.
He had to walk out of the tree awkwardly in the weird eyes of D.D and the zombies, adjust himself, and smile gently and politely.
Adrian bowed respectfully to him:
"Your Excellency the Duke."
Thyls nodded quickly in return:
"Lord Adrian."
"Excuse me..."
Adrian smiled and shook his head:
"Don't worry."
"I'm just here... to give you the official Duke canonization warrant."
He turned around and handed a scroll of paper to Glover (Doyle wanted to reach out to pick it up, but when the scroll was about to fall into his hand, he turned to Glover strangely).
"By the way, see how the boys are preparing," the captain of the guard who was over half a hundred years old smiled and looked at Doyle and Glover. The former smiled awkwardly, while the latter stood more stiff:
"After all, it is the first time in many years to mobilize personnel from the Royal Guard and form a special unit."
Tyles looked at the warrant in Glover's hand, and had no time to delve into the meaning of the other party's words:
"Thank you for your concern."
The guard commander's smile still remains: "I hope Tormond has not caused you any trouble."
Thyls was taken aback:
"Than...who?"
Tormond.
His first reaction was the portrait of Fuxing King in Mindis Hall.
But Adrian just sighed:
"I heard Count Caso talk about the conflict between you and him on the road. I want to apologize for his behavior."
Tyles just realized that the other person said...
"But please believe me, Lord Mallos is not disrespectful, let alone stubborn," Adrian said seriously:
"He is just...too casual."
Thyls blinked.
"Whatever?"
He took a deep breath, recalling how Mallos told him just now that ‘no one cares about you’, he wondered:
"My captain of the guard? Casual?"
Even Doyle and Glover, who didn't dare to take a mouthful, couldn't help but look curiously.
Adrian chuckled.
"Please don't get me wrong, Your Highness, when I say'casual', it doesn't mean laziness and negligence. Lord Mallos' ability is beyond doubt."
Adrian looked at the Mindis Hall on the other side of the fountain and said with emotion:
"It's just that he hates complexity and trouble. Facing problems, he prefers to choose the solution that is within reach."
"It's kind of...arrogant."
I hate the complexity and trouble...
Arrogant.
Hearing this evaluation, Thales felt a little bit.
Adrian reluctantly said:
"For example, the easiest way to protect the prince is to keep the prince from going out."
"I don't know...sometimes this can cause more trouble."
Thyls nodded and smiled in response.
I saw Adrian sigh:
"So, he often needs someone... a push."
"Go spur him to do better."
Doyle and Glover looked at each other.
"Really," Thales nodded politely. "I will pay attention."
"By the way, Lord Mallos is..."
But Adrian raised his hand:
"Oh no, I won't see him anymore."
The captain of the guard looked at Thales with a smile:
"It's enough to see you."
"Six years ago, when you became a prince, I happened to have a family affair, so I was not present and missed your important moment."
Adrian's eyes suddenly became serious:
"Fortunately, I never missed the time when you became a duke."
Thyls was startled as he felt the meaning in the other's eyes.
"Your Highness."
I saw Adrian staring at him, speaking earnestly:
"A good warrior can withstand, and must withstand thousands of tempers."
"A qualified nobleman can and must shoulder a huge burden."
The captain of the guard said lightly:
"The king is the same."
In the next second, he added a sentence inadvertently
"The king is more."
Let Thales froze in place.
Adrian saluted again, then turned and left.
Seeing the back of the captain of the guard disappeared, Doyle breathed heavily, as if holding back his breath for a lifetime.
"Wow, wow, wow...unbelievable, the captain of the guard spoke to me..."
D.D is not without excitement and authenticity:
"I joined the team for seven and a half years. This is the second time I have met Commander Adrian and talked alone! The last time was three years ago!"
Well, yes, three years ago.
I was in the guard room at that time,
It seems like a sentence "Captain, do you want to drink water" and "No, thank you"?
Doyle thought excitedly.
"Huh."
Glover snorted disdainfully, with a look of contempt "You have never seen the world".
Three years.
At the same time in the Fuxing Palace, how far does this kid have to be so that he has no chance to talk to the commander alone for three years?
As for myself...
Huh.
With a touch of self-confidence, Glover recalled his last conversation with the captain of the guard.
A few years ago...
Strange, why can't you remember?
Beside the two people with different moods, Thales was thoughtful.
"That's..." he said slowly.
The excited Doyle answered Thales’ doubts:
"Oh, don't you know? That's the hangest person in the royal guard."
"Captain of the General Guard, Lord Adrian."
I saw Doyle look good:
"His qualifications are enough to crush everyone else in the guard, and he is a witness of glory and destruction."
Qualifications?
Glory and destruction?
Thyls was slightly puzzled.
Glover nodded, looking at the direction Adrian was leaving, his expression serious:
"It is said that the captain has witnessed the **** years and is the only survivor of the legendary royal guard...the old guard."
Have witnessed the **** year...
Tyles' face changed slightly.
"You mean, the...former royal guard from my grandfather's time?"
Doyle took a deep breath and nodded yearningly.
Thinking of the prisoners in the Bone Prison, Thales couldn't help being shocked:
"Adrian...he has lived through his **** years? How did he do it?"
Glover shrugged.
"Congratulations, Lord Duke," D.D sighed and spread his hands:
"You just asked about the third place in the'Top Ten Unsolved Mysteries of the Royal Guard'."
Thyls was speechless.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the iron gate.
"No, no, no, it's closed today...you are a nobleman and you can't..."
The attention of the three was attracted, Doyle walked towards the iron gate, and Glover followed close behind.
The curious Thales also came forward, but Glover pushed him behind him and blocked him firmly.
"What happened?" Across the iron gate, Doyle stopped a Bright Star private soldier outside the gate.
The soldier turned around and pointed angrily at a man in the distance who was stopped by several soldiers:
"Guardian, this guy wants to break in... He said he is a nobleman, otherwise we would have..."
Doyle squinted his eyes and saw the man who was stopped.
His eyes enlarged immediately.
"Wait, wait, I know him..."
Doyle looked at the man outside the door who was beckoning him:
"Why are you?"
The man outside the door desperately broke free from the suppression of the soldiers and adjusted his clothes. He was also surprised when he saw Doyle:
"Hey, I just want to ask, D.D, why are you?"
Doyle looked dark:
"Nonsense, I am the royal guard...No, no, I asked you first: Why are you?"
The man outside the door blinked. He looked around and seemed very puzzled:
"Just...it's me!"
Behind Glover, Thales laughed when he heard the inexplicable conversation between the two parties.
Glover looked strangely.
"It's nothing, it's just..." Thales shook his hand apologetically:
"I remembered a joke from a Northlander: ‘Why are you?’"
Thyls couldn't help laughing again.
If I didn't understand, Glover's expression became more and more strange.
Outside the door, between Doyle and the uninvited guest, the inexplicable and inexplicable conversation continues:
"What are you doing and what?"
The guest touched his head:
"I... I took leave of absence in advance today. I came here specifically to see the prince-ah no, now the duke... I heard that he is back today..."
Doyle shook his head:
"No, the nobles must make an appointment first to visit..."
But D.D reacted:
"Wait, how do you know that the prince is back today, and how do you know that he is a duke..."
"Oh, my letter crow is faster...Okay, get out of the way, don't stop me from seeing him..."
"No, how do you know he is here..."
"Have you forgotten, when you sent the prince today, we were responsible for clearing the road..."
"No, no, no, wait...I mean in what capacity are you, what qualifications do you have to come to visit the prince..."
"What a joke, at my age, I am the only promising young man in our hall with the title of Lord Royal..."
"Lord Yufeng? You mean that because you have a hard relationship, a deep background, and a good father, you got the title of dude?"
"Bah, get out! I am knighted, of course because of my merits to the kingdom!"
"Achievements...you mean, go to the streets to catch thief?"
"Is it special to catch you... It was obviously my heroic expedition six years ago to defend the kingdom from war!"
"Hey, I'll see how long you are going to blow your cow..."
"Let me tell you D.D. You are Hong Guoguo's jealousy. You jealous if you don't get out of your way..."
"Bah, baah, you have been single for more than 20 years, do you still have a face..."
Behind the iron gate, Glover pressed his head with shame.
Obviously, the negotiations between Doyle and the man outside the door will not end for a while~IndoMTL.com~ and the private soldiers of the stars who have been tired of listening have already returned to their posts.
But Thales heard something.
"Doyle?"
In spite of Glover's face, the Duke of Xinghu decisively stepped over the former and reminded loudly:
"Doyle!"
In front of the iron gate, Doyle, who had been arguing forever, came back to his senses and remembered his duties. He quickly turned around and said with a smile:
"Sorry, my lord, I'm bothering you... Well, let me introduce you, this is..."
Doyle turned sideways, pointed at the uninvited guest outside the door, and yelled out a string of nouns embarrassingly:
"...my grandmother's brother-in-law's grand-nephew."
Glover sighed again and slapped his face.
At that moment, Thales could clearly see the guests outside.
He was stunned.
"Well, the heir of a certain great earl, working and holidaying in the capital..."
Doylegan smiled and said the name of the person:
"Cohen Karabyan."
Tyles looked at the man outside the door blankly.
"Hey, eh, eh, Your Highness! Do you remember me? I'm the one...that...the one who eats more fruits and liver..."
Beyond the iron gate, the tall Security Officer Cohen looked at Thales, who had grown up a lot, in surprise, then pointed at himself, showing his big white teeth and a smirk of "It's me".
Doyle looked at Cohen in horror as he waved hard, and coughed awkwardly.
"By the way, Your Highness."
Without noticing the host’s strangeness, Doyle lowered the volume and put his head to Thales’ ear:
"The nobles in the royal capital are telling...this guy..."
Doyle pointed to Cohen, who couldn't help but smirked and waved, nodded his head concealedly, and vowed in a low voice:
"There is a problem with the brain."
