Chapter 174: Earl White Orchid
One year after the war between the Principality of Kasmi and the Kingdom of Aisinzhe ended. A rare and unfamiliar peace was ushered in. In this turbulent peace, some inconspicuous things happened intermittently.
After disappearing for a year, Paladin, Bishop of Adderley, returned to the diocese to continue his daily work. Although some bishops in the archdiocese secretly protested, believing that such a Paladin who neglected his duties and did not take God seriously was not qualified to continue to serve as a bishop, without exception, these protests were ignored by his boss, the big man Salir. veto. Paladin became a bishop safely.
What is worth pondering is that a year ago, just after Paladin disappeared, Paladin's brother Alfred. Abandoning his surname and aristocratic glory, he married into the arms of his monarch, the Countess White Orchid. He became an object of secret contempt by many knights. Because he changed his surname, his full name became Alfred, the white orchid. He was secretly nicknamed the "Knight Riding on the White Orchid". Although there were many bad words, they could not change the fact that he, Alfred, was the White Orchid. He has the first qualification to inherit the title of Earl of White Orchid. Of course, this is on the premise that he and his wife have no children.
However, the world is full of coincidences. A year later, Paladin returned to the church. The other clone, Alfred, was wearing a white sheep armor, sitting in the corridor outside the Earl's bedroom with a solemn expression, saying nothing. Waves of screams and cries could be vaguely heard coming from the bedroom. Many servants and maids were busy going back and forth carrying hot water basins and cotton cloths. Yes, Olina, the ugly woman, is pregnant. And after ten months of pregnancy, her belly got bigger and bigger. Finally, one warm morning, her water broke.
Now Alfred, to be precise, what was thinking in Paladin's mind was not the child, nor the ugly woman, but the white orchid earldom. Now that he has a child, even if he kills Olina, the title will not be his. Unless you kill your own children. Only then can the title of nobility be placed on his head! Of course, Paladin had no feelings of pity. He wouldn't be like that idiot Anakin, who completely lost to Heir's feelings at the last moment. The continuation of the bloodline? He didn't care about such humble and ridiculous human relationships.
"Dear!" Suddenly, a cry came from the room. Awakening Alfred's clone from his thoughts. He had just come to his senses when he suddenly heard two babies crying with different sounds from the bedroom! In an instant, a look of ecstasy appeared on the clone's face, he pushed away the maid with a smile on her face, and walked in quickly in a few steps!
"Sir." As soon as they saw the clone coming in, the servants carrying blood and blood-stained gauze immediately called out respectfully. The clone nodded and came to the bedside with excitement and ecstasy on his face, looking at this woman. Deadly pale face, weak smile, messy hair. Olina happily took a pair of babies wrapped in fine white cloth from the maid beside her. Yes, it’s a pair! A pair of twin siblings were born!
"My dear, come and take a look...this is our child. Look how cute it is." The clone leaned down with a loving look on his face, teasing the pair of babies who were gradually sleeping, with their pouty mouth and fat body. little face. Then he turned his head, kissed Olina's forehead gently, stroked her pale face and said, "Have a good rest, you are already very tired." After that, he turned around, waved to the servants and said: "Go down, take the children away, and take good care of them." After saying that, an old man who was obviously a housekeeper and a wet nurse came forward to hug the two siblings. He led his servants away one after another and closed the door gently. …,
"My dear, what do you think we should name the two little ones? My brother's name is Bruce and my sister's name is Natasha? What do you think?" After seeing everyone leave, the clone listened to Olina's suggestion and turned He turned around and looked at her calmly. The clone was about to speak, but Olina unexpectedly spoke first. She stared at the clone with a dead white face, as if she mustered up a lot of courage before she made up her mind and said: "My dear, do you really love me?" "Of course."
The clone replied immediately without thinking. But obviously, the answer of the clone did not satisfy Olina, who had always been meek. She frowned and looked at the clone hoping to detect some scrutiny in his expression. But she failed without any suspense, so she could only sigh and said: "You have been with me this year. Although your life is happy, you are surrounded by gossip and slander... Even the servants secretly talk about you. No. Don't you have any feelings at all?" "Because I love you, so I don't care about this." The clone who didn't care at all said casually. But in my mind, I was planning the future development.
"Dear! Look at me!" When Olina saw the absent-minded clone, she immediately grabbed his hand, looked at the clone very seriously and said: "To tell the truth, you gave up your family name and married me. It's true. Do you love me, or is it for my title?" Silent, the clone suddenly became silent. After the two stared at each other for a long time, the clone suddenly smiled gently, touched Olina's dead white face and said, "You are tired, go to bed early."
"I want you to say it now!" Holding the clone, Olina showed her stubborn side. "Hey..." Sighing softly, the clone suddenly took out a bottle containing blood medicine from his sleeve. Suddenly, he turned around like lightning, grabbed Olina's mouth, poured the potion into her mouth, and then covered her mouth tightly. The other hand grasped her arm tightly, preventing her from moving.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" After experiencing such a drastic change suddenly, Olina was unable to react. When she came to her senses, her hands and feet had been restrained by her lover. What shocked her even more was that her powerful strength was actually unable to move under the power of the clone! The clone with a cruelly calm face looked at Olina, who was staring at her in disbelief, and clearly saw the word "why" in her eyes. Then he said very leisurely: "This bottle of potion was originally meant to be given to you after one or two years. But you are more sensitive than I thought... I have no choice but to shorten your life by a few years."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Olina, whose mouth was covered by the clone, struggled desperately, but how could she be the avatar's opponent when she was so weak? But the clone lowered his head, kissed her forehead again, and whispered calmly: "Of course, who would fall in love with an ugly guy? Only your title is what I want... But your child, I will take good care of her. Because there is still value." Olina's eyes widened, and Olina, who obviously couldn't accept this fact, shed tears of sadness. There was just a whining sound, and it was obvious that Olina had something to say to the clone, as the saying goes, people who are about to die have good words. No one refuses to listen to a dying person.
But this is of no value to the clone. Hearing Olina's whining sounds, he frowned and said to himself: "What's going on? The effect of the medicine is a little later than expected." Without hesitation at all, he raised his fist. He hit Olina, who had just given birth, hard on the lower abdomen through the velvet quilt!
"Woo!" Olina let out a muffled cry of severe pain. His whole body began to tremble with severe pain. Soon, the clone lying on the bed saw that the quilt was immediately stained red with blood. And spread quickly. Then he released his grip on Olina's mouth and said to himself: "That potion is not simple. Even if the archbishop comes, it will not help. I can only watch the blood drain to death... You should thank me, Olina. This potion is the least painful one.”…,
The clone was talking to himself, and when he saw Olina rolling her eyes, her face quickly turned pale. Finally, he looked up to the sky and shouted: "Quick! Someone, hurry up! Madam, she's bleeding!" As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of servants who heard the news hurried in soon after. As soon as she entered, she saw that the entire quilt was dyed red. Olina was so angry that she immediately exclaimed and started to rescue her in a hurry!
"Save her, please save her!" The clone begged with tears streaming down his face, but stepped back step by step. When they came to the door, Olina, even though her consciousness was blurred, reached out to the clone in despair, but what she responded to was only the cruel and indifferent feelings under the clone's tear-filled eyes. Finally, when the clone's figure was blocked by the door and out of sight, Olina, who was struggling to hold on, lost her last glimmer of hope. The raised hand fell weakly beside the bed, and his life and spirit fell into darkness.
The clone with a calm expression standing outside the window could vaguely see Olina's soul slowly rising into the sky in a light that mortals could not see. Return to the embrace of Enos’ Kingdom of God. The clone who was watching all this suddenly smiled and said in a voice that only he could hear: "Say hello to Enos for me, my dear."
Soon after, after the death of the Marquis de Camon in battle, Countess White Orchid, the leader of the Aries Knights, the second largest knights, died of massive hemorrhage in the mansion after giving birth. Because the legal heir was too young, the title was temporarily taken over by his father, Alfred, Bai Lanhua. At this point, the clone became the leader of one of the three major knights in the principality, and obtained the title of earl. And one year after the war ended, the principality had two generals die in succession, and there would be no more wars in the short term. At this point, a rare period of peace arrived, although it was short-lived...
Coincidentally, the Kingdom of Malta was at the same time. After recuperating his energy, King Philip summoned Donald, who had been trapped in prison for a year. But the accident just happened. Donald laughed wildly and his head exploded into pieces. King Philip then uncharacteristically revoked the tax reduction order he had issued not long ago, and also issued three poll taxes, bread tax and territorial tax. The neighboring countries who thought they also needed to rest and recuperate suddenly felt that this war madman really wanted to drag this tired kingdom to fight again? Naturally, no one knew that Philip was no longer Philip. The Kingdom of Malta has completely become a pawn of the mastermind behind the scenes. His purpose is nothing more than countless lives, lives, and lives.
