Although it is unbelievable to say this, the reality is like this. From the common people to the nobles, no one thinks that the king's imperial court is an ideal marriage partner.
Of course, it does not rule out that some people want to gain benefits by marrying the royal family.
It's just that anyone with a brain knows that sending a child in is tantamount to giving away a head.
As the 47-year-old king of a country who has no marriage or lover, the marriage of the imperial court has always been the heart disease of the cabinet ministers.
And the nobles seemed unwilling to send their daughters or sons to the tyrant to live a life of constant anxiety.
In this way, their king of a country has entered the ranks of the leftover men who are in "big trouble", and it is difficult to marry.
Closer to home, when Wen Qiuxing saw that he had to go through multiple inspections from the civilian area to the main city, he showed surprise in his eyes.
As the levitating car passed through the grand and technological entrance and entered the boundary of the main city, Wen Qiuxing saw the most sci-fi scene he had ever seen in his life.
Surrounded by high-rise buildings and green plants, the space is used quite magically, as if entering a different dimension.
The hover car flies at high speed on a specific track in the sky, and there is an airship in the middle of the sky in the distance. It is a more advanced travel tool than the hover car, and generally only the nobles use it.
In short, it is very different from the civilian area, and it can be regarded as a picture of the interstellar era that is more in line with imagination.
It is said that there is a more advanced area than the main city, Wangcheng.
Not knowing what it would be like there, Wen Qiuxing thought wildly.
"This is a work area, and many people work here." When Feng Ting came out of Wangcheng before, he always wandered around aimlessly, and he was quite familiar with various places.
Seeing Wen Qiuxing looking out of the window curiously, I explained it to him.
"Is it state-run?" Wen Qiuxing asked.
"No, private." Feng Ting said.
In fact, apart from a few things such as energy stones, weapons and medical treatment, the empire didn't intervene much.
The main state-owned institutions are all located in Wangcheng, and the main city is mainly populated by merchants and most of the nobles.
Therefore, the entertainment industry here is particularly developed. Simply put, it is a paradise for the rich.
Wine, food, gambling, all kinds of entertainment, as long as you have money, you can buy all the entertainment you want in the main city.
Including some absurdities that cannot be put on the table, transactions in private, and no one interferes.
For example, slaves, which have always been the favorite of nobles.
The slaves mentioned here are of course not limited to humans, but also alien creatures.
Some extraterrestrial creatures have the same IQ as human beings, but in the vast universe, they belong to a disadvantaged group ruled by human beings with backward civilization.
After these planets were ruled, the aborigines on the native planets could only be reduced to second-class citizens, and were even openly sold to nobles and merchants as slaves.
However, this kind of phenomenon usually happens more often in other main stars. Although the king of the first main star is tyrannical and has to fight in person every year, he has a group of powerful subjects who provide the king with an alien star to vent his murderous desire every year. No civilization has been established.
Therefore, the alien creatures on the first main planet are all imported goods, and the price is very expensive.
Only nobles and merchants can afford it.
Beauties with tails and ears are fun to play with, but they're also dangerous.
When Wen Qiuxing was wandering around the Internet before, he saw a piece of breaking news, saying that a nobleman was bitten and chirping while playing with a slave...
... It can be said to be very heavy.
As a result, his impression of nobles is always inseparable from the word prostitution.
When he was making out with Will, he was also a little worried suddenly, did he accidentally accept a plate
Fortunately, Will's various reactions are not like the old driver.
He couldn't even compare to his talkative who only had theoretical knowledge, so he fell asleep with peace of mind.
I don't know how long it took, and the noisy environment around became quiet.
Wen Qiuxing saw a piece of blue sea in the distance, and the scenery on the seaside was beautiful, lush and green, so eye-catching.
The well-arranged private mansions are dotted on this perfect and incomparable winding coastline.
Just seeing such a picture makes people feel refreshed, as if they have entered the reality of a magical big production.
Sure enough, the environment here in the main city is a hundred times better than that in the civilian areas.
And Will's real identity home, without thinking about it, is probably in the main city.
If you want to ask Wen Qiuxing if he yearns for this place, the answer is of course yearning.
But to be honest, Wen Qiuxing hopes that one day he can settle here with his own efforts.
Maybe it will be a long time, but he has a lot of youth to squander.
He firmly believes that this year or two is nothing more than a transitional period.
Thinking of this, the hover car stopped in front of a manor.
The driver said: "I'm sorry, public suspension vehicles are not allowed to enter here, please get off."
"En." Feng Ting responded, and got out of the car first.
This time, he stretched out his hands directly and affectionately, and hugged the young man above him.
"Hey, the sun is so fierce." Wen Qiuxing said.
He was going to teach Will a lesson, but when he came into contact with the glare of the sun, he turned his head and stuffed his face into the windbreaker.
The slightly stronger wind by the sea, with the smell of the sea, blows them both.
Wen Qiuxing looked up: "Is this your friend's house?"
There is a fountain inside the gate, which is really rich.
The autumn sun shone on his face, making him look more and more radiant, much more attractive than when he just crossed.
Simply put, it is the difference between a young man and a mature man.
Having experience is much more charming than not having experience, every look, every gesture will be affected.
"Do you want to live here?" Feng Ting looked at the young man, helping him to straighten his wind-blown hair.
"No, I want to live alone." Wen Qiuxing shrank his neck, staying away from harassment.
Feng Ting smiled, stepped forward suddenly, and kissed the little friend's forehead: "To be honest... I don't want you to live with someone else either."
"Heh." Wen Qiu stared blankly.
But the friendship between the earthlings and the aliens should not be lost, so he awkwardly said something from his heart: "However, you don't have to be too stressed, it's good to live in a civilian area."
That's right, if you go to the main city and want to pay for school district housing sponsorship, wouldn't it be cheating.
"..." Feng Ting blinked, feeling sore in his heart, and did not speak.
"Let's go." Feng Ting put his arm around Wen Qiuxing's shoulder.
"Why do you look tall?" Wen Qiuxing shook his shoulders.
This guy's arms are really heavy, no matter what he weighs on his body, it must weigh ten to twenty catties.
"Then what about this?" Feng Ting changed it to wrap around the young man's slender waist.
"It's better... no," Wen Qiuxing said, "Why do you have to cling to me?"
Tired and crooked, two men.
Public!
"We are partners, isn't that what it should be?" Feng Ting hugged him even tighter.
Just like that, the two of them walked into the manor in a tug-of-war.
Perhaps the owner here knew that they were coming, so the journey was smooth and the treatment was good.
From the quality of the servants and the refinement of the manor, it can be seen that the master here must be a particular person.
They were taken into a drawing room.
Wen Qiuxing looked around. The overall style is gorgeous and elegant. The large floor-to-ceiling windows and linen-colored curtains combined modern elements and retro styles, making people feel relaxed on vacation.
The indoor temperature in the afternoon is much higher than the outdoor temperature.
The first thing Wen Qiu did when he woke up was to take off Will's ugly trench coat and put it aside.
He sat in the car for a noon just now, and he didn't want to sit down.
Just stand in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and admire the garden outside the glass.
There are all kinds of flowers inside, 99% of which are alien species.
"Will, there are roses in this season?" Wen Qiuxing watched, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the flowers he finally knew were blooming in the corner.
But looking back, he saw a slender figure appearing at the door.
Wen Qiuxing stared blankly, because the man looked... Elegant and handsome, with blond hair, blue eyes, high nose bridge, white skin, thin lips, thin and tall, he was a typical European-style aristocratic youth.
The age was estimated to be around early twenties, but Wen Qiuxing did not dare to randomly guess the real age of their aliens.
The temperament is very cold, like the spring water in February. At first glance, it is only slightly cold, but in fact it is so cold that it makes people shiver.
Wen Qiuxing felt a little cold sweat on his back when the other party took a look.
In comparison, under the same conditions, Will's calmness and gentleness are more in line with Wen Qiuxing's aesthetics.
So Wen Qiuxing glanced at Will subconsciously.
"It's okay." Feng Ting walked up to Wen Qiuxing, almost blocking Elliot's eyes from looking at Wen Qiuxing, and held Wen Qiuxing's hand generously.
But what he blocked was not only Elliot's sight, but also Wen Qiuxing's sight.
Although this Earl Elliot looks deserted, it cannot be denied that he is a very good parent.
So Wen Qiuxing immediately poked his head out from behind Feng Ting, and took another look.
"..." Earl Elliot raised his eyebrows, and also looked at the black head.
Feng Ting: "..."
Feng Ting followed Elliot's line of sight, looked back at his partner, and immediately pursed his thin lips.
The blue eyes swayed charmingly.
In a daze, Wen Qiuxing understood his jealousy, swallowed the hello that was about to blurt out, and changed it into a faint nod.
Elio pulled his lips slightly, and turned to look at the savior who rescued him two years ago. The other person was still as handsome as he had seen before, showing an aura that ordinary people could hardly match.
Two years ago, after Elliot was rescued by Feng Ting, he also checked Feng Ting's identity.
But nothing.
At that time, he made a promise to the other party that if he encountered trouble, he could always come to him.
Now it seems that the other party has encountered a difficult matter.
Elliot sat down on a sofa next to him, and said in a low voice: "Say."
"..." Wen Qiuxing stared at him dumbfounded, this Earl Elliot really has a fucking personality, he thought to himself.
And his man was not bad either, he was able to do a job well in front of this nobleman, he was not stage frightened, and even faintly carried the tone of a superior, sitting down with his arms around him: "This is my partner, smell."
Elliot glanced at Wen Qiuxing, but didn't speak.
"I have news about a vein of energy stone in my hand." Feng Ting threw out another sentence.
"Conditions." Elio said two words.
"Protect him." Feng Ting also said concisely.
"Yes." Elliot glanced at Wen Qiuxing again, then stood up and led the way: "Go up and discuss in detail."
So Wen Qiuxing stood up from the sofa before his butt was hot, with a confused expression on his face: "Is this the talk?"
The entire negotiation process only takes a mere minute.
Unexpectedly high efficiency.
"Yeah." When Feng Ting faced Wen Qiuxing, warmth returned to his eyes.
"..."
Wen Qiuxing touched his face, then looked down at the two hands whose fingers were intertwined at some point.
He swallowed, expressing that he was a little tired and panicked.
Arriving at Elliot's study room, two well-matched, good-looking men were discussing the matter of energy stone veins in a serious manner.
"Where did you get the news?" Elliot waved back the maid who brought tea and snacks.
"Wangcheng." Feng Ting wanted to get Elliot's protection, and he didn't have the idea of going around in circles: "You have mining rights, and there is currently no owner of this mine vein. You can get approval before others apply."
"Wangcheng?" Elliot frowned, his eyes were cold: "You let me grab food from the king?"
Isn't that courting death
"No." Feng Ting said.
The news about this mine originally came from the mercenary group, and they planned to report the news to the empire, but the news was intercepted on the way, and the mercenary group was completely wiped out.
"It was York who cut off the news." Feng Tingyun calmly said a name.
Elliot's expression fluctuated slightly, he didn't believe that an ordinary commoner could call a duke by his name so naturally: "He has no mining rights."
"Russell." Feng Ting threw out another character.
"...I need to find someone to investigate." At this point, Elliot no longer doubted that this person must be a nobleman who didn't run away.
They you say, I say.
While listening to their chat, Wen Qiuxing looked up terms he didn't understand, and the more he searched, the more confused he became.
Because these things are not open on the Internet at all, nothing useful can be found.
Later, he gave up participating and simply opened a movie and watched it while eating the tea served by the maid.
In order not to interfere with their conversation, Wen Qiuxing turned on the tiny earphones hanging on his ears.
This thing is basically worn by everyone, and it has no effect on the ears.
And as long as each person's earphone is authorized, it can also be connected to another person's terminal.
Feng Ting watched a movie with Wen Qiuxing yesterday before going to bed, and kissed half of it.
At this moment, Wen Qiuxing opened the movie and continued to watch, causing Feng Ting to hear the voice immediately.
The man who was talking to Elio paused for a moment, then raised his finger and lowered his voice as if nothing had happened, and continued talking to Elio while 'watching' a movie with his little friend in disguise.
