Miss Wang Weina, my cousin can't do it either!

[I am not a qualified father.I missed Wayne's birth, missed his birthday, missed her mother's serious illness and death, and I was absent in his life, and never was, except for giving him life.I often convince myself that it's because I have something to do.But Wayne obviously didn't understand this. In fact, during this expedition, when I stood outside the gate of the palace and turned around to say goodbye to Wayne, I only saw the stranger's indifference in those eyes. 】

[I don't expect him to understand. 】

[But from this poor girl, I experienced that feeling, the feeling of truly becoming a "father".Her recovery ability was astonishing. Even though it was only half a day since she woke up, she was already able to run around outside the camel cart. 】

[She will say hello to me, although she will use the most primitive way of stretching out her hands to hug her, she will be hungry, and then try to quietly rummage in my weapon box for food, fortunately there is no trigger bomb or the like stuff.After only half a day, she was already able to falter and haw some words. 】

【"dad"】

【I'm really excited. 】

Wayne raised his head, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

He suddenly felt bursts of anger ignited in his heart. Of course, to the bystander Wayne, this notebook is just a No. 1 movie. Although it touched him, it is absolutely impossible to be angry because of it. or sadness.This emotion comes from the body, from "obsession".

The predecessor that has completely disappeared is angry.

Wayne probably understood how he felt.His own child was left alone in the palace, but the father was busy sharing family happiness with the "daughter" he picked up.Even the father planned to take her home.

This is tantamount to telling Wei En, who stayed alone in the palace and is known as "has the eyes of a stranger", that not only does he not get cared for, but he is even being deprived of the title of "son of the northern king".

He suppressed the anger in his heart and continued to turn to the next page.

[May 1085, 5 in the Terra calendar]

[I think I should give her a name, just like a real father. 】

[I wanted to discuss it with Normandy, but in the end I gave up because I decided to think about it myself.I couldn't come up with a good name for Wayne, but at least I could come up with one for this kid.I'm thinking... Catherine?Marisa?simple? 】

[No, forget it.Such a name is not suitable for this special child, not to mention that I just adopted her, and she used to have a family of her own.That being the case, let's take a code name. 】

[I picked her up in the wilderness of Dublin. Dublin is called "the city of shallows surrounded by reed barriers" in the old saying. She is very thin and has lost her memory. Compared with the soldiers walking beside her, she looks Like a swaying reed, it may be broken by the wind at any time.But she is very tenacious, even if she encountered a foreign species in the wilderness, she survived such a serious injury, like a grass. 】

【Decided, until this child finds her biological parents, let's call her that. 】

Wayne quietly looked at the beautiful name written in Victoria cursive at the end on the note.

【Reed】

Chapter 66 Father and Son (5000 word chapter!)

【Reed Grass】.

Wayne never expected to see this name here, in the notes of the King of the North.

He couldn't wait to turn to the next page.On this page, the handwriting of the King of the North was a little floating, as if he was very happy.

[May 1085, 5 in the Terra calendar]

【I'm home!The warm wind in Yorkshire makes people feel refreshed. Where the army passed by, a large number of citizens clustered on both sides of the road. They were cheering and celebrating. Victoria once again defeated the enemy from the wilderness, and the empire once again restored peace. and tranquility. 】

[But I saw some annoying figures.Lentinim didn't know what he was thinking, was Andrew so sick that he no longer cared about his affairs?These Lateran missionaries are everywhere, they are locusts, and they have spread to the north now.When I return to Londinium next time, I must persuade Andrew that the Lateran religion can be believed, but only a little bit. 】

[Forget it, let's not talk about business...Weicao also looked very pleasantly surprised. Unexpectedly, she did not show the fear I expected for the crowd's cheers. This is a good thing. In the future, she may experience even more Lots of things like that, with Wayne.Speaking of Wayne, I haven't seen him all day today.This child is like this, every time I leave the palace, he will run around, hang out with those ignorant and ignorant friends, and read at home with peace of mind, isn't it good?In the future, he will manage such a large piece of land. 】

【But fortunately, this time I brought back a family member and a playmate for him. I hope to have Weicao's company, and I hope he can break ties with those dude friends. 】

A smile appeared on the corner of Wayne's mouth, but this smile was neither warm nor tolerant, but rather ridiculously disdainful.He had no doubt that when his predecessor heard the news, he also showed the same smile.

The King of the Northern Territory is a majestic and powerful man. He has fought countless battles in his life, and even completed the Raiding Battle of Londinium, which is almost impossible to be copied. How can such a powerful person be overwhelmed by his emotional intelligence?

He did this, seemingly to get Wayne's understanding, but it was too self-righteous.He knew almost nothing about his son, and simply thought that Wayne would understand his good intentions?

Speechless and ridiculous.

Wayne could almost guess what happened next. He glanced quickly, skipping the description about the growth of reeds in the middle of the notes, and directly fast-forwarded to the day when Wayne returned to the northern palace.This day's handwriting is extraordinarily messy, but the strength is penetrating. It can be seen that the owner of the diary is feeling resentful.

[May 1085, 5 in the Terra calendar]

【Win came back, reeking of alcohol, grinning loudly, making the whole palace noisy in the middle of the night.He didn't seem to know the news that I had gone home at all, and returned to the bedroom on his own, completely ignoring me who had been waiting for him until late at night.Reed looked scared, but I comforted her.Wayne is by no means a bad person by nature, I understand my child, he just took a detour for a while. 】

【I told Wei Cao to go back to sleep first, and went to Wayne's bedroom by myself. 】

[We had a quarrel. 】

Wayne closed his eyes, revealing an expression that was as expected.

It's all like this, it's no wonder that you don't quarrel with your EQ, not to mention that your predecessor was also drinking, and it seems that you are on the mend.

He continued to watch.

[Ven rejected all my requests, he refused to sever ties with those dandies, saying they were his "friends", he rejected my plan to take him to Londinium together, and said he would stay with me We have nothing to talk about together, he said that I don't understand wine, I don't understand trends, and the most important thing is that I don't understand him at all.I understand how he feels, so I saved the surprise until the end.I told him about our new family...]

【….】

"But he also refused."

Wayne silently read the following text.

"He glared at me and threatened to drive out the unknown reed grass. He said he didn't need any family members who fell from the sky. He had friends, goals, and ideals."

"As long as I'm not in this house, I don't feel lonely anywhere."

Wayne caressed the line of dry ink, repeating the words engraved on it.Unexpectedly, the King of the North did not express anger or punish Wayne for his words. He just hurriedly ended the content of the diary with a brief sentence.

【Then he buried his head in the quilt and fell asleep. I stood beside him for a while and had no choice but to leave. 】

Next, Wayne saw an interesting scene.

In the second day's record, the predecessor "reluctantly" took the initiative to contact Weicao.

Yo, hiss—

Oh yo, am I still a tsundere?

Wayne's feeling right now is very subtle, like asking the serious Sir Chen to sell his cheongsam book. It's very shameful, but he's inexplicably a little excited, looking forward to what will happen next.

This Tsundere initiative contact may be the last attempt of the predecessor to reconcile with the King of the North. In fact, the friendship between the predecessor and Weicao has progressed unexpectedly fast.In other words, he made friends quickly with anyone who didn't treat him as a royal but an ordinary person.

Two months passed until the notes flashed.

[May 1085, 7 in the Terra calendar]

As if reacting to this date, Wayne frowned subconsciously, and he began to read curiously while sorting out the memories in his mind.

【Big discovery!Today, with the recovery of some fragmentary memories, Weicao showed her Originium skills for the first time. The ability that resembles flames but is not flames is extremely familiar.I made an urgent trip back to Londinium to confirm my guess, and it turned out to be true]

【——Reed is not Vayfan, her bloodline is far purer and nobler than those other dragons, she is Drake, she is the red dragon with burning bloodline and destiny!Just like Aslan is to Ferlin, she is different! 】

[In the Victorian annals of the Royal Private Library of Londinium, there is such a record: The lions claimed to be kings together, and Draco and Aslan each received equal opportunities.After this ancient treaty, they were both eligible to become sole monarchs of Victoria.what does this mean? 】

【Perhaps I should think about the relationship between Wayne and Weicao. They are friends now, but they can’t just be friends in the future.Wayne may become the key to mediate the conflict between the red dragon and the lions, and become the most orthodox king in Victoria's history. This golden opportunity cannot be wasted. 】

[I will solve the problem of the throne! 】

The notes stop here.

Wayne looked at the last sentence, which was like a declaration, and suddenly remembered something. He looked up and looked at the date in the diary again.

July 1085, 7 in the Terran calendar.The date of one of the most important battles in Victoria's recent history - the War of the Roses - is just five months away.

Five months may seem like a long time, but in fact it was less than half a year. The King of the North completed his armament reorganization in this half year. After the death of Weina's father Andrew, who was seriously ill, he finally went south and captured Lundini. m...

It is unimaginable, what a terrible action, what a terrible decision, what a terrible strength.

He accomplished his goal.Helping Wayne seize the throne of Victoria, he won the so-called opportunity to become the most orthodox and greatest emperor in Victoria's history.

Even though Wayne didn't want to.

[May 1087, 5 in the Terra calendar]

Two years have passed, and everything started from this date of the year—the War of the Roses, the Victory Day of the King in the North.

The mighty army entered the city wall of Londinium, and the [Unfallable City] finally fell into the hands of blood relatives. The Aslan royal family in the palace was purged, and only Wei Na escaped by chance.On this night, the King of the North wrote the last page of this notebook.

.......

"Vin, boy. You should know what I mean."

By the candlelight, the King of the North looked at the blond boy with a disgusted expression in front of him and said seriously,

"Weicao has a good impression of you, if you work harder, you can take her down."

"I take her as a friend."

"Friends depend on status!" The King of the Northern Territory emphasized, "Which of your former friends, which low-level workers, which tavern drinkers, which humble local nobles, you go to make friends with them as a prince, I There is no hindrance. But you should listen to me this time. Wayne, you are not young anymore. Reed is Drake, the only bloodline in all of Victoria who can be called a close relative to us except us Aslan himself. You always You don’t want to spend your whole life with an old man like me, do you?”

Of course, Wayne can also shirk the internal marriage with Aslan's royal family.

So the king of the north took a ruthless hand and washed the inside of Aslan clean.

For so long, the only woman beside Wei En is Wei Cao, and he has no choice.

The King of the North thought so, and he couldn't find a reason for Wayne to reject him.This is the best way to unify all of Victoria and completely resolve the troublesome northern border issues and the Drake issue.This is a major national event, and everyone should sacrifice some personal interests.

What's more, the reed grass is also very beautiful, and the relationship with Wayne has already reached the stage of dependence that is more than a friend and not a lover.He didn't think it was a form of coercion.

At most, it was my father's worry.

But Wayne rejected him with the faintest voice.

"I reject the offer."

Wayne can understand what the King of the North is doing. He is a nobleman. For the sake of a better bloodline, he should do this, as it should be.

But he hates this approach, because he doesn't think Weicao is a breeding machine for bloodline optimization, and he is not a breeding lion.

After all, he is not a p club player who should be shot.

.......

[He looked at me strangely, this look makes people angry, I don't understand why he doesn't understand my difficulties, is it because what I said is not clear enough? 】

【He thinks that I want to make Reed the king, the reason is that he has heard from some treacherous villain that the claim I used in this war of succession to the throne is not Aslan, but Drake’s Reed Grass. 】

[He thinks that I use him, his friend, my adoptive daughter Weicao, as a tool, a tool to realize Victoria's ideal of unification. 】

[It's ridiculous!I have never had such an idea, I provided him with the best education, met all his needs, and did not even limit him to hang out with lowly people, workers, and ignorant nobles, and finally He also laid a huge country for him, and gave him this crown as his coming-of-age gift today, on his birthday.He said that I never thought about him once? 】

【As my son, he actually didn't see any of my painstaking efforts, and he didn't even have a tacit understanding with me.He is looking at me like a stranger...]

[I regret it a little now.For the first time in my life, I touched him. 】

[I hope he can get rid of those traitors earlier, Drake symbolizes force and desire, Aslan symbolizes power and order, your combination will only make the bloodline stronger, but Victoria's throne will undoubtedly only be Aslan's, a girl who has lost her memory and is obedient to you can't threaten your place in my heart, and I never have the idea of ​​handing over the crown to Drake! 】

[Believe me, Wayne, I love you. 】

Wayne closed his notebook, and heaved a long sigh, with a trace of helpless bitterness in the smile on the corner of his mouth:

"You should say this in person. What's the use of writing it in a diary?"

Wayne has already recalled what happened after this, and recalled that bloody night.

It was the last night of the King in the North.

December 1091, 12 in the Terran calendar.

The holiest day in the Lateran religion, the gods return to the earth to heal the scars of natural disasters, heal the pain of Originium, and bring the gospel of new life.

The King of the North finished dealing with another round of missionary upsurge caused by the Lateran Catholic Church in Victoria. He was not good at government affairs, especially religious affairs. His blind suppression of Lateran religion not only failed to make the Holy See The disappearance in Victoria triggered riots of believers one after another.

Both he and Rutland had reached a breaking point of mutual tolerance.Maybe in a few days, he will make up his mind to send troops to make a pilgrimage with arms!

Putting aside the tedious religious affairs, he looked at the report on the "suspected figure of Aslan" in the Londinium civilian area handed over to the unicorn.

"And the fish that slipped through the net?"

The King of the North was about to check the contents of the report when an urgent letter with a special red lacquer seal for the King of the North attracted his attention.

He is the king of the northern border, and it is impossible for him to send a letter to himself, so there is only one source for this letter.

"Wayne?"

The matter that slipped through the net can be dealt with later, but the matter of Wayne must be put first.The King of the North opened the envelope, and the first line of words printed in his eyes made him feel overjoyed.

【Father, I've been thinking about it for a long time. We can discuss the matter of Weicao again.Please come to Lancaster House alone in the western suburbs of Londinium at 11:00 tonight.I will wait for you till dawn. 】

Why must it be late at night, not tomorrow?Why do you have to be alone, can't you bring your followers and guards?Why not wait for him to bring Weicao back to Londinium from Dublin and then discuss it together. Doesn't Wayne value her ideas?

This was a letter full of doubts, but the King of the North completely ignored all of it, and there was only relief in his mind at the moment.

Wayne understood him.

What evil can my son have?

He issued an order to recall Reed in the direction of Dublin, and then waited quietly.
