Chapter 29: 3 years ago

　　When Richard stepped down the stairs to enter the first floor hall, all guard soldiers were still guarding all the entrances and exits. They were extremely vigilant and very nervous, lest anyone outside could suddenly attack. After all, they are only more than 20 people, and it is difficult to resist the attack of a dozen times the number of enemies.
　　 They didn’t even know what happened in the bedroom just now, and they didn’t know why this happened. They just received a thin salary and took care of something unknown in their lives.
A guard soldier saw Richard appear, and quickly came forward, whispering quickly: "His Royal Highness, the people outside are afraid that it is really bad intentions, there are many archers aiming at the entrance of the palace. Your Royal Highness... ...You must not appear in their sight, otherwise there will be danger... Uh, by the way, Captain Edward?"
　　Finally, the guard soldier asked in doubt.
　　 Richard looked at the other party, his eyes flashing: "Your captain has betrayed me and was killed by me."
　　 "This!" The guard soldier's eyes widened instantly, "This..."
"In other words, even your captain betrayed me for the benefit of the family, in fact..." Richard said softly, "You guys don't need to protect me at all. There is no need, no meaning, they are all gone. Right."
　　 "I..." The guard soldier opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, but in the end he gritted his teeth, "No... I will always protect His Royal Highness until I die."
　　 "Huh? Why? Is it worth it?" Li Cha asked.
The guard soldier said, he was not a nobleman, but a farmer’s son, illiterate, unable to tell the truth, panting: "I...I don’t know, but I...but understand, It’s not right to leave the prince now. I... I don’t know why Captain Edward betrayed His Royal Highness, but I... I will never betray His Royal Highness, even... even if I die..."
　　 "Bill." Richard said.
　　 The guard soldiers were shocked, and some surprises were even more unexpected. In fact, he hadn't spoken to Richard before today. He didn't expect that Richard could call his name accurately and responded quickly.
　　 "At!"
　　 "Give you a task." Li Cha said lightly.
　　 "Yes, His Royal Highness, I must finish it." The guard soldier beat his chest with his right fist, kneeled down on one knee, and said.
"You are now the captain of the guard. There is a tunnel in the kitchen of the palace, which leads to the outside of the city. Although it is a little low, it can pass. You will take all the guards with you and leave along the tunnel. No Busy to refuse, I know you are more loyal than Edward.
　　 But... the highest loyalty is not to die, but to live hard. Sacrifice in vain is meaningless. If you are really loyal enough, escape and live. Maybe many years later, maybe I will find you again and let you do things. Hope that at that time, you don't forget me. "
　　 "I..." The soldier named Bill stared at Richard with wide eyes, "Then... Your prince you... don't you go together?"
"It's more fortunate to walk through the tunnel. I prefer to walk through the main entrance. Of course, don't worry about me. I have my own arrangements. And, I want to talk to a person." Richard said, patting the pro The guard's shoulders turned and walked outside the palace, his eyes sharpened.
　　……
　　 Outside the palace, there were spears lined up, swords crossed, and they were all killed.
　　 However, when many soldiers saw Licha coming out, they were all slightly stunned, showing a puzzled expression. It seems that there is some discrepancy with the order they received.
Richard looked in his eyes and said: "William, come out. If you don't come forward, your group will not dare to do it. After all...I guess...you will never let them kill the prince. But to kill the'Captain of the Guard who betrayed the Prince'?"
　　 "Wow la la", the crowd separated towards the two sides, and the new king, William, came out wearing a gorgeous robe with a golden color, many colorful patterns on the surface, and inlaid with stones of different sizes.
　　William's expression at this time was not angry and mighty. After stepping out, he stared at Li Cha for a moment and suddenly smiled slightly.
"My dear brother, you came out alive, so to speak...Edward, he betrayed again? Not only did he betray you, now he betrayed me again? Hey, I'm a little strange, how did you convince him? "" William squinted.
　　 "Very simple, I killed him." Richard said quietly.
William's eyes narrowed slightly, but his expression remained calm: "So, you know he betrayed ahead of time? So, be prepared for him already, and then let the remaining guard soldiers kill him? It’s reasonable, after all...I’m afraid that he can’t beat an ordinary guard soldier by his swordsmanship. But I admire your keenness, your cleverness!"
　　 "But it's back again~EbookFREE.me~ Even if you are smart, haven't you thought that there will be this day now, my dear brother?" William said slightly.
　　 "Actually, I thought about it." Richard was still calm.
　　 "No! Yes! Yes!" William stared, denying the words one by one.
"Huh." Richard said, "Do I still need to explain it to you? Actually, I know much more than you think. For example, the rumor three years ago, I know you spread it, Let your respected father, His Majesty King Donalds, the former king, doubt me and make a voodoo doll to curse him.
　　Oh, the slaughter of the whole palace, the people from top to bottom almost killed a clean. Hundreds of lives, blood stained the square in front of the palace...and then six months in prison for me, huh...
　　 I think at that time, you must be very proud and rest assured that I will no longer be qualified to compete with you. Even if you are arguing with you, your honorable father, His Majesty King Donalds, will still be unpretentious to me. But the problem is that I didn’t want to fight you from the beginning. As I said, I have important things to do. But what happened three years ago, but firmed my idea of ​​leaving.
　　To tell the truth, if in the current world, I am not a prince, but a heir to a little nobility, maybe the situation will be better. The position of the prince is a little high, many people are watching, there are many responsibilities imposed. I don't like these responsibilities. In order to do what I want to do better, leaving is the best choice. I will leave the palace, leave the Blue Lion City, and leave the entire Blue Lion Kingdom. "
　　William stopped talking, looking at Richard, his expression was strange: "You..."
　　 After taking a deep breath, he took a deep breath and said, "Even if you say so, I won't let you go."
