Mark came to see me right after the first class. I knew something had happened by looking at his serious expression.
He pulled me to a deserted corner and said to me: "Boss, the matter is serious this time. When I went back and told my father about your encounter with the demons, my father was very shocked. He asked me to take you to see him. ,look… "
I frowned and said, "Is it really that serious? How is His Majesty the King's current situation? Is it really as bad as Hai Hai said?"
Mark nodded heavily and said: "Father said that His Majesty the King can live for 3-5 months at most. His Majesty has no children. Once he dies, the situation in the country will probably change drastically. The competition for the throne will be very fierce."
I thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'm going to see your father. When will I go?"
Mark said: "Just tonight, I will come find you after school."
I nodded and said, "Okay."
Back in the classroom, my heart became heavy. If His Majesty the King dies, Ai Xia will most likely split. This is what I least want to see. Now that the three parties are divided, if one of them fails, Ai Xia will lose strength. hurt. If it comes down to it, Mark's father Keza Orr is the most qualified to inherit the throne. After all, he is His Majesty the King's younger brother, and he should be the strongest. But judging from the current situation, the other two major forces Obviously they have the intention to cooperate. If they unite, I'm afraid Prince Keza Or will be difficult to deal with, especially the Duke of Teyi. He has the Royal Magician Corps as his trump card, which is really a headache.
I shook my head, and couldn't help but laugh at myself, thinking that it had nothing to do with me, and I wasn't the one to inherit the throne. No, if there really was a fight, wouldn't Qi's life be ruined? Is there any way to stop it? What can I do on my own? Even if I am a magister, I probably can't stop such a large-scale battle. I met Mark's father in the evening and wanted to see what kind of person he was.
Suddenly, there was a piece of paper in front of me. I was stunned, and then I picked up the paper and saw it said: What are you thinking about, so absorbed. Muzi gave it to me, it was really her. I looked at her with surprise, but she was looking straight at the blackboard, as if she didn't know I was watching her.
I quickly wrote: For some worrying national events, I am really happy that you wrote me a note for the first time. Do you like me too
After I finished writing, I handed the note over. After reading the note, Muzi rolled his eyes at me and said in a low voice: "You always talk nonsense about national affairs. You only know how to have fun. I haven't seen you listen carefully in class and you still care about the country." It's a big deal, I wrote you a note because I was afraid that the teacher would call you, reminding you to pay attention to the class, don't get me wrong, I won't like you." After saying that, his face turned red.
This is simply a cover-up, haha, it seems that I am getting closer and closer to success.
In the evening, Mark and I went straight to the Prince's Palace in addition to the college.
"Is your house really big?" I exclaimed as I looked at the majestic prince's mansion.
Mark smiled awkwardly and said, "Father is a prince after all, and the mansion can't be too bad. Come on, let's go in quickly." When they came to the door, the officers and soldiers on guard immediately bowed and saluted when they saw Mark, and said, "Second Young Master, come back. ”
I asked Mark strangely: "Why don't they call you little prince?"
Mark's face turned red and he said: "Boss, don't make fun of me. What kind of little prince am I? I will always be your brother. Go and tell your father that I am back with the Longbow Mage." "The last sentence was said to the guard. In order not to reveal my own strength, Mark only said that I was a wizard.
The guard looked at me respectfully and thought, young people nowadays are so powerful, and they are magicians at such a young age. He turned around and ran into the house for summons.
Mark led the way and said as he walked: "Let me take you to father's study first. He usually meets guests there."
I smiled and said: "In your house, of course I listen to you, let's go."
The buildings in the Prince's Mansion are all very tall and antique, with numerous rockeries and woods inside the Mansion swaying in the moonlight. Guards can be seen standing guard every 20 meters. After walking for a while, we finally arrived at what Mark called the study room. It was a study room here and there. It was simply a small library, covering an area of 500 square meters. There were tall bookcases standing around it, filled with all kinds of dazzling books.
Mark said to me: "Boss, please sit here for a while. I'll go see if father is here." As he said that, he led me to the guest sofa in the center.
Watching Mark go out, I was bored. I stood up and walked to a bookcase. I took out a book at random. It looked very old and was threaded. The pages were already yellowed. It said, "Three Hundred Tang Poems".
I opened it and saw that they were all ancient poems I had never seen before. I read a few poems randomly and found them to be very meaningful and interesting. I was about to continue looking back when the voice of the guard came from outside: "His Royal Highness is here."
I quickly put down the book in my hand and returned to the sofa. The door opened. Mark came in first and stood aside. Behind him, a middle-aged man in a brocade robe and jade belt strode into the study. I saw that this man was very impressive and imposing, somewhat similar to Mark, but with an added domineering air of an emperor.
He saw me as soon as he entered the door, with a dazzling light in his eyes. I looked at him without giving an inch, and it was obvious that the magic level of this prince was definitely not low. He laughed and said, "You must be Chang Gong. You are so young and promising. Sit down and you're welcome."
I bowed and saluted and said, "Hello, Your Highness, it's an honor to meet you."
The prince said: "When you come to my place, it's like coming to your own home. There are not so many etiquettes. Sit down quickly. Mark, you can come too." After saying that, he sat down first.
Mark and I sat across from the prince, and the attendant served tea. The prince said: "You all should step aside. No one is allowed to come within 30 meters of the study without my order."
"Yes." The attendants and guards all went down.
The prince picked up the teacup and took a sip, raised his head and looked at me, and said, "I heard from my son Mark that you have reached the level of a magician. It's really gratifying and congratulatory!" The prince's words immediately won my favor. He was very polite to me, a junior, when he entered the door. Now he did not directly ask me about the demon clan, but first congratulated me on becoming a magister. This shows that he attaches great importance to talents.
