The prince's son has never been a good-natured person, especially this Xia Lingyu also showed an air of coveting for his personal servant.
Lu Heng frowned and said bluntly, "Xia Lingyu, are you very interested in my exclusive servant?"
Xia Lingyu then turned her gaze back to Lu Heng's face, seeing the arrogance on the face of this beautiful young man in front of her, she sneered in her heart, but her face was still tolerant and honest: "The prince is too much, I just look at Mr. Jiming. A talent. In a dangerous place on the border, I must have helped you a lot, right?"
Is this secretly saying that you are a waste? While belittling, he did not forget to please Xia Jiming. Lu Heng could clearly perceive Xia Lingyu's emotions, but the original owner was a straight person and never understood the mysterious twists and turns in these words.
Lu Heng also pretended not to hear it, with a look of indifference: "So I gave him the honorable Xia surname and brought him out from that remote waste star. It is not easy to become the exclusive servant of this prince. Glory to get."
Xia Lingyu seemed to be choked by Lu Heng's answer, and couldn't find a suitable answer for a while. After a while, he seemed a little unwilling to say: "I think it's better to ask Mr. Jiming himself, maybe he has other plans? For example, the Prince's Palace can give him an entrance exam for the National School of Education. It is definitely not a problem for the recommended places to enter with Mr. Ji Ming's ability."
When it came to the last sentence, Xia Lingyu's eyes turned to Xia Jiming again.
"Xia Lingyu," Lu Heng swept him up and down, "I haven't come back for ten years, have you forgotten your identity?"
Xia Lingyu was still a teenager after all, and Lu Heng behaved like this in public, especially in front of people he valued. At that time, his face was a little unbearable, he stood up and stared at Lu Heng with some anger.
Lu Heng didn't even look at the other party, he threw the chopsticks on the table, raised his eyebrows and said, "I haven't come back for ten years, and the things that can't go on the table have jumped so badly that I lost my appetite because of the quarrel, which is a disappointment. ."
The scene was a little embarrassing for a while. Not only Xia Lingyu, but even Zhou's complexion was a little ugly. After all, Lu Heng was away from the Prince's Mansion for ten years, and they lived quite smoothly. It's been a long time since they felt this kind of aggrieved feeling.
"Ling Yu, what do you look like?" Prince Rong reprimanded with a frown, "Apologize to Ling Heng!"
Xia Lingyu's chest heaved violently, barely suppressing his anger: "Sir, I'm the one who overstepped the rules, sorry."
"Okay, let's eat quickly. Ling Heng is back so far away, so don't pester him with these meaningless things." Prince Rong made another round.
Lu Heng raised his chin slightly, signaling that he would forgive Xia Lingyu's rudeness.
Those words just now are of course not what Lu Heng meant. This table is all an actor, so Lu Heng can't lose face as an excellent employee.
After doing so many tasks, Lu Heng's acting skills had to be good. With his micro-expressions, he made a poor-tempered and arrogant son of a nobleman come alive. Such people, those around them who have a little self-esteem, will have their minds floating, and that is the best opportunity for people who have dissent to sow discord. Next, it's up to Xia Lingyu's actions.
Lu Heng was not at all worried that Xia Jiming would have any bad thoughts, because the emotions from the man behind him were peaceful, and even when he said those words, he still agreed with him.
Xia Lingyu didn't dare to provoke Lu Heng again, Zhou Shi was always silent at the dinner table like a background board. There was only Prince Rong and Lu Heng talking in the restaurant. It seems that the family is happy and reunited, but within the range of Lu Heng's ability perception, these people really have different thoughts.
Prince Rong was still indifferent, with no emotional ups and downs.
Zhou Shi was a little indignant, which is quite normal.
Xia Lingyu is the person with the richest inner drama and the most interesting one. Although I couldn't hear the specific thoughts in his heart, the emotions conveyed from him. Lu Heng deduced that he felt like a grasshopper after the autumn, just a cannon fodder.
People in the know, that's really interesting. It seems that a lot of things can be learned from this Xia Lingyu.
Lu Heng was very satisfied, and happily raised his head and drank the glass of wine.
After eating this turbulent dinner, Lu Heng returned to his yard. Although it was a long journey back to the Imperial City, he did not intend to rest like this.
The moon is dark, the wind is high, and today is such a special day. Of course, many hidden secrets will be exposed. Lu Heng thought so. Anyway, he was very comfortable in the first-class cabin of the starship, and with Xia Jiming, the almighty servant, taking care of everything for him, Lu Heng didn't have to worry about anything at all, so he didn't feel sleepy now.
"What do you think of Xia Lingyu?" Lu Heng asked. As for these people in the Prince's Mansion, Lu Heng and Xia Jiming briefly talked about the general situation when they came back.
This Xia Lingyu, before Xia Lingheng left, was not like this. In the memories Lu Heng received, he was a transparent person with no sense of existence in the Prince's Mansion. Apart from salutes and greetings, he didn't dare to say a word to Lu Heng.
This alien soul plays very carelessly. He should have known the fact that Xia Lingyu overthrew the dynasty and became the first president of the republic. He felt that he was in control of everything, or that he was confident that the fate of heaven was on his side.
It's just that if this Xia Lingyu is the son of luck, what about Xia Jiming? Why is this foreign soul so obsessed with Xia Jiming
"He is trying to please me without a trace." Xia Jiming said.
"What do you think?" Lu Heng said.
"What he said today, if it wasn't you who brought me into the Prince's Mansion, it would have made me a little interested." Xia Jiming was blunt, and he would never hide anything in front of Lu Heng. .
However, Xia Jiming has no interest in talking about people who are not important: "Master Ah Heng, do you want to rest?"
"No, let's go around the palace and see if we can find any secrets." Lu Heng said mysteriously.
Soft white light illuminates.
After the light dissipated, there was only a pile of clothes left where Lu Heng was standing. After a while, a slap-sized silver-gray tabby cat emerged from the clothes.
Xia Jiming has not seen Lu Heng in this form for a long time. He couldn't help stepping forward, picked up the kitten, and buried his face in the soft fur. It was not until after receiving a few slaps that Xia Jiming reluctantly left.
"Presumptuous!" Lu Heng's hair exploded from his rubbing, "Forgot the rules again?"
"I was wrong, Young Master Ah Heng." Xia Jiming admitted his mistake with a good attitude.
Seeing his good attitude, Lu Heng nodded with satisfaction and motioned him to put himself into a small cloth bag: "Very good. Go, go to Prince Rong's yard and have a look, don't attract any attention."
When Xia Jiming lived in the forest, his stealth skills were even better than the most skilled felines in hunting. He easily avoided the guards and protection systems in the mansion and went outside Prince Rong's courtyard.
However, the result disappointed Lu Heng a little, Prince Rong was not at home. When they returned, they accidentally saw Xia Lingyu in the garden.
Lu Heng rolled his eyes: "Xia Jiming, hide me tightly, and then pretend to go to the kitchen to get something."
Xia Jiming obediently put Lu Heng into the closest clothes.
Fortunately, after entering the palace, Xia Jiming didn't wear that kind of tailored three-piece suit. Instead, he wore the same traditional Chinese clothing as Lu Heng. The traditional Chinese clothes are looser, and Lu Heng is small, hiding under his shirt, in this kind of night with poor light. Outsiders couldn't find him at all.
Xia Jiming found an unoccupied corner to show his figure, and then walked along the corridor towards the kitchen.
"Mr. Jiming!"
Sure enough, Xia Jiming only appeared in the garden, and was stopped by Xia Lingyu.
Xia Jiming stopped hastily: "Mr. Ling Yu."
Xia Lingyu ran to Xia Jiming in a few steps, with a somewhat excited smile on her face: "It's such a coincidence."
"Yeah." Xia Jiming smiled, his whole person looked gentle and kind, "Master Ah Heng said that he was not full at night, so he ordered me to go to the kitchen to get some food."
"There should be food in the prince's yard?" Xia Lingyu was a little puzzled.
"Master Ah Heng said he wanted to eat raw fish porridge, but he really can't do anything about him." Xia Jiming's tone was soft, and when he mentioned Lu Heng, it was as if he was talking about his lover.
Although Xia Lingyu's thoughts just flashed by, Lu Heng, who has great abilities, still caught the most crucial sentence.
The sickly and blackened villain is too cute, as expected of my destiny! It's this kind of smile on his face, and he has already figured out what to do with the corpse in his heart!
The sickly and blackened villain, is Xia Jiming the villain in this novel? Could it be that in the original world line, Xia Jiming killed Xia Lingheng? Lu Heng hid in Xia Jiming's shirt, and was a little dizzy when hit by this heavy news.
"The prince has been such a reckless person since he was a child, so it's hard for you." Xia Lingyu said.
"How could that be? After all, he gave me such an enviable identity, and I am very grateful to him." Xia Jiming was still gentle.
This feeling is really great, calling for my male god! Male god, you are not short of thigh pendants! But please sleep male god!
Xia Lingyu's heart activity is simply the live version of the fanboy licking the screen. After listening to it, Lu Heng couldn't extract any useful information again, and the exhaustion of using the power swept up again. He gently grabbed Xia Jiming's chest and signaled that he could leave.
"Mr. Ling Yu, I have something to do, so I will leave first." Xia Jiming politely said goodbye to Xia Lingyu.
Although I learned from Xia Lingyu that Xia Jiming is the villain in this book, Xia Lingheng's death is very likely related to him. There are still many doubts about this matter. Although Xia Jiming has a somewhat twisted and dark personality, as long as he does not touch his bottom line, he will not kill people at will.
Everything has to be figured out slowly. But this Xia Lingyu was an excellent breakthrough. It's a pity that Lu Heng's mind-reading ability cannot be used continuously for too long.
"Xia Jiming, that Xia Lingyu really likes you." After returning to the courtyard, Lu Heng was too lazy to restore his human form. His power consumption was too much, and it was easier to restore his cat form.
Affected by the cat's biological instinct, when Lu Heng's cat shape sleeps, he always has to stick to a heat source to sleep soundly. So, just like every night before, Lu Heng slept directly on Xia Jiming's bed tonight.
"Like it?" Xia Jiming gently scratched his hand on the kitten's chin, "Is human beings such a ridiculous creature? For people who meet for the first time, they can have strong emotions for no reason, whether they like it or not. is malicious..."
Lu Heng's round eyes narrowed into a slit because of the comfortable feeling from his chin: "Maybe it's not the first time we met, you just cooperate with my plan, there must be some big secret behind this."
"Follow my orders, my Young Master Ah Heng."
Xia Jiming pinched the kitten's ears again, and got a paw in exchange for his wish, and then he closed his eyes and went to sleep with peace of mind.
The next day, Prince Rong handed over the book and took Lu Heng into the palace to see the emperor's cousin.
As the prince's heir, Lu Heng is also considered to be the emperor's cousin. If he returned to the imperial capital after being missing for ten years, he should go to the palace to report one or two things. Although the emperor and Xia Lingheng were of the same age and were born only a few days apart, their relationship was not close.
Because Lu Heng was a second-generation ancestor who had been spoiled since childhood, and the emperor was burdened with the heavy responsibility of the Huaxia Dynasty, he had to receive various emperors' education since he was a child. The two of them have almost no intersection, and they can meet each other at the palace greetings and banquets during the festivals.
Xia Jiming naturally followed Lu Heng into the palace, but he couldn't go to the imperial study and could only wait in the ear room.
In the imperial study, the young man sitting behind the large desk is the current supreme ruler of the Huaxia Dynasty, Emperor Zhaoming. He was wearing regular clothes. The face is fair and handsome, and it is the standard royal family Xia family. Emperor Zhaoming, Prince Rong, including Xia Lingyu, were born somewhat similar.
Prince Rong led Lu Heng to salute, and Emperor Zhaoming said with a smile on his face: "Uncle, you forgot that you are now engaged in affirmative action. These false salutes will be avoided between our family members."
"Ceremonies can't be broken." Prince Rong replied respectfully, "The affirmative action is to fool those young people, and we old guys can't get involved."
Knowing that Prince Rong was an old-fashioned minister, Emperor Zhaoming didn't say much, and let him lead Lu Heng to complete a set of etiquette.
When Prince Rong and Lu Heng were seated, Emperor Zhaoming asked about Lu Heng.
According to the rhetoric he thought of on the starship, Lu Heng recounted the events of the past ten years, and finally said: "Your Majesty, if it weren't for this encounter, I still don't know the border. There is such a planet that has been forgotten by the dynasty. I promised the people there to solve the problem of the magnetic field of the abandoned star. As a member of the Xia family, I cannot break my promise."
"Naturally, these are my people. I don't need your reminder, and I won't just give up on them." Emperor Zhaoming said, "Tomorrow I will gather people from the Hanlin Academy who study magnetic science to discuss this matter."
"Your Majesty, this time I brought Ling Heng into the palace, and I went out to explain to you his whereabouts in the past ten years. There is one more thing to ask for." Prince Rong said suddenly.
"Uncle, please speak."
"It's like this, Ling Heng has been isolated from the world in that remote waste star for ten years, and he is very unfamiliar with the current situation of the Imperial Capital Star. I thought about arranging him to go to the Guozi School and get to know his peers. integrate quickly
Seeing Emperor Zhaoming nodding, Prince Rong continued.
"You also know this kid Ling Heng. It's definitely a no-brainer to ask him to take the national school entrance exam seriously. I plan to use the special admission quota to arrange him to enter the school without taking the test."
"Uncle, you can arrange such trivial matters directly." Emperor Zhaoming waved his hand.
Prince Rong had the right to directly insert Lu Heng'an into the Guozi School. However, his identity is sensitive, and naturally he will not act without authorization. Even if he arranges such a thing as Lu Hengjin's national education, he must report it to Emperor Zhaoming first.
"Your Majesty, I want to enter the elite class and be in the same class as Xia Lingyu." Lu Heng said suddenly.
Prince Rong can arrange Lu Heng into the Guozi School, which is the privilege of the nobles, but the elite class is not included in this special case. The elite class of Guozixue can be said to be the most fair. Even if it is a royal family member, if you want to enter the elite class, you must pass the entrance exam through your own ability.
The matter of entering the Imperial Academy was naturally not what Prince Rong thought of, but what Lu Heng proposed. Xia Lingyu was the key figure in the breakthrough, and Lu Heng had already planned to observe this person from all angles and from all angles.
However, now Xia Lingyu is basically staying in the Imperial Academy, and there is not much time to return to the Prince's Mansion. If he wanted to have more contact with him, Lu Heng could only find a way to enter the Guozi School, preferably in the same class as Xia Lingyu.
However, with Xia Lingheng's qualifications, it was a fool's dream to enter the elite class. Lu Heng had only one way left, that is, Emperor Zhaoming personally decreed to let him enter the elite class of Guozixue.
"Ling Heng, don't be ridiculous." Prince Rong reprimanded in a low voice.
"Why can Xia Lingyu enter the elite class, and I can't enter the elite class. Because Xia Lingyu entered the elite class, he didn't take my son in the eye." Lu Heng perfectly played an unreasonable second-generation ancestor.
"Okay, it's not a big deal, Ling Heng can go if he wants to." Emperor Zhaoming waved his hand, showing connivance to his cousin who was only a few days younger.
After that, Prince Rong said that he still had important matters to discuss with Emperor Zhaoming, and asked Lu Heng to go back first.
Walking out of the imperial study, Lu Heng touched his chin. The relationship between Emperor Zhaoming and Prince Rong was not as smooth as he had expected. At least from the emotions that Lu Heng perceived, Emperor Zhaoming still respected Prince Rong quite a bit, and he had nothing to be wary of.
