Moodys didn't answer his words, sitting in the wheelchair and holding the wine glass in his hand motionless as if he hadn't heard Zhuo Yang's words.

Zhuo Yang couldn't figure out what the situation was, and he was so nervous that his palms were slightly sweaty, and he didn't dare to step forward. He thought about it and summoned his Quantum Beast Nine-Tailed Fox, wanting it to take his place. Go and test the current situation of Moodys.

As soon as the snow-white nine-tailed fox was released, it became too elated. The mind of the quantum beast and the owner's mind are connected. Zhuo Yang liked Moodys and regarded the other as the most special existence, and the nine-tailed fox was the same. As soon as it was released, it jumped onto Moodys’s knee, trying to behave as usual, let Moodys touch itself, and then spread it out as a blanket on Moodys’s knee. …

But this time, for some reason, Moodys, who has always been very indulgent to it, rejected the nine-tailed fox's motion and closeness to his knees.

He couldn't get up to Moodys's knee, and finally got up to it and was pushed down gently by Moodys, refusing his intimacy.

This made the Nine-Tailed Fox that I thought I had become familiar with Moodys during this period of time, and he could do whatever he wanted to Moodys. The Nine-tailed Fox, which Moodys would never refuse, was extremely wronged.

"Oh~Oh~Oh~" It stood at Moodys’s feet and wailed dissatisfiedly, as if accusing Moodys of being unsatisfied. Fortunately, he didn’t let himself get on his legs. Its dark eyes were full of grievances, which made people feel distressed. .

Moodys frowned, but finally refused the nine-tailed fox's request to get on his legs.

The nine-tailed fox became even more aggrieved. He was very unwilling to tentatively rubbed Moodys's trouser legs with his head, and licked Moodys's hanging hands with his tongue, not knowing what he had done wrong. , Very dissatisfied with Moodys's neglect of himself.

After all, Moodys could not be cruel, and raised his hand to touch the soft fur-covered head of the nine-tailed fox.

The Nine-Tailed Fox became happy all of a sudden, and licked Moodys's hand again in a coquettish and very cheerful manner, very euphemistically suggesting Moodys' intention to get on his legs.

Moodys sighed, letting go of the hand that blocked the nine-tailed fox on his knee.

The nine-tailed fox immediately jumped into Moodys' warm thigh with joy, and happily nested himself into a ball, nestled in Moodys's arms.

Zhuo Yang watched as he jumped into the Quantum Beast in Moodys's arms. He was immediately relieved. After smelling the rum in the air, he took the initiative to ask: "His Royal Highness, are you drinking? I seem to smell it. When it comes to the taste of wine... I think you have recovered from a serious illness and your current physical condition is not suitable for drinking."

He tried to open the topic with concern.

"Is the banquet at my uncle's house over?" But Moodys didn't pick him up, instead he started another conversation. He lowered his head and touched the nine-tailed fox in his arms, and asked without raising his head. Another irrelevant issue.

Zhuo Yang replied: "It's over. Tonight, the dinner at the residence of His Royal Highness Chang Diqing was very successful and very lively... His Royal Highness Chang Diqing also introduced many people to me."

"Little Emperor's social circle has always been very wide in Emperor Star." Moodys stroked the fox in his arms back and forth.

His hands are big and warm. The fiery heat makes the nine-tailed fox in his arms feel unusually warm and comfortable, and feel safe...

Stroked back and forth by him, the nine-tailed fox that was nestled in his arms immediately stretched out comfortably, spreading himself into a pool of dough, spreading it on his lap, and hitting it delicately. Yawn.

Zhuo Yang didn't know why he suddenly asked the question at the dinner, worried that he felt lonely because of his inconvenient physical condition, and immediately said: "Your Highness, do you feel lonely?"

Although Zhuo Yang himself is not a person who likes lively, most people in the world like lively and are afraid of loneliness...

Due to his physical condition, Moodys hadn't been out to attend such lively social occasions for more than nine years except for their last wedding.

It is normal to yearn for such occasions.

"Lonely?" Moodys chuckled lightly, but he didn't expect him to ask like this: "Oh ~ maybe."

Maybe he is indeed lonely, so he yearns for and cares about the company of others. In the past... he was not such a person.

"If you like it, we can also hold a banquet, dance parties and so on at home." Zhuo Yang saw Moodys's response, when even planning for Moodys: "I think, if it is If you want to hold a banquet, many big figures in the circle will show your face, and you will be able to receive invitations as an honor..."

Although his current physical condition is not very good, the organizer of such an event as a banquet dance will be very exhausting, exhausted and exhausted, but as long as Moodys can be happy, he is willing to do anything for him.

Moodys has been lonely for so long, and has been cold-hearted for so long, and it is time to have a good time and be happy.

Moodys listened to his advice, but shook his head: "No, I don't have the same interest as the little emperor and my mother, and I don't like such noisy activities. I say I am lonely... because of it."

His gaze fell on Zhuo Yang, but he closed his mouth... What was it, he didn't say anything.

"Because, what? Your Highness." Zhuo Yang looked at him puzzled.

Moodys pressed his forehead, which was a bit painful from drinking, and tried to change the subject but asked, "It's nothing, have you seen anyone tonight?"

"His Royal Highness, Mrs. Anne, Duke Andrew... Major General Wang, Lieutenant Yang... There are many, many people." Zhuo Yang desperately recalled how many people he had met tonight as if reporting to his work. Came out.

In front of many people, he has a clever tongue and exquisite face, but in front of his favorite person, he is naive and stupid like a dumb dumb who can't speak and can only answer questions and answers.

Moodys asked, and he answered, not knowing how to turn or turn.

Moodys looked at him with this upright look, and didn't know whether he should cry or laugh... In fact, Zhuo Yang often gave him an illusion that he felt that the other party liked him very much.

Although, he doesn't know whether this like is true or false, but he still...

Moodys looked at Zhuo Yang for a while, and after Zhuo Yang had reported a long list, he suddenly asked: "What kind of person do you like?"

As soon as the voice fell, the whole room was silent, as if even a needle dropped on the ground could be heard.

Zhuo Yang did not move for a while, but the nine-tailed fox in Moodys's arms stood up as if he had been greatly stimulated. The whole fox seemed to have blown up, showing the owner's flustered heart.

"His Royal Highness... Why did you suddenly ask this question?" Zhuo Yang licked his lips, and the Nine-Tailed Fox relaxed again and leaned back into the distance.

When Moodys asked, it almost gave him the illusion that Moodys also fell in love with him...

Moodys turned his head to look at the dim light in the room: "However, I suddenly felt a little curious. You might as well talk about it."

"He... he is a very good person." Zhuo Yang looked at Moodys, and almost instantly he blurted out that the person he liked was his impulse, but in the end he calmed down and stopped. This impulse of my own gave a safer answer.

Moodys looked at Zhuo Yang, looked at him for a long time, and suddenly smiled with a sneer: "Very good, a very good person? Huh—"

"Yes, Your Highness." Zhuo Yang said.

Moodys looked at him fixedly, not knowing why, he looked at Zhuo Yang's eyes and listened to his answer when he liked what kind of person he suddenly felt a particularly indescribable, bitter and obscure feeling. , I don't know where it came from, but it blocked his heart with exceptionally uncomfortable feelings.

Is it jealous or jealous

Moodys didn't know, he only knew that he shouldn't have such narrow, obscure, dark thoughts, it was not good, his reason told him this.

However, maybe it was drinking, maybe something else... he couldn't control himself...

I can’t control my own bad thoughts that I shouldn’t have.

From the bottom of his heart, it seemed that because of drinking and long-term loneliness, a beast had grown up, and the beast was yelling: "He is your crown prince, he should belong to you, and he should stay by your side forever, no matter if it is He is the same as his nine-tailed fox... That's what the law stipulates, isn't it?"

"Do you know this person Gordon Corey?" Moodys forced himself to bear all kinds of bad emotions, making himself very calm, and asked like this casually.

Zhuo Yang panicked, and the nine-tailed fox on Moodys's knee also pricked up his ears unconsciously and entered a state of alertness.

But he still made himself seem very calm, pretending to be relaxed and replied: "You know, your excellency. The loyal suitor of His Royal Highness Changdiqing, the brother of the second prince's boyfriend, Rant Corey."

"Then... What kind of person do you think he is?" Moodys asked, fixedly looking at him.

Zhuo Yang considered it for a moment, and made a very pertinent evaluation: "He is a very good politician and... an careerist."

"So are you familiar with him?" Moodys asked him very bluntly.

Zhuo Yang was stunned, and his whole body froze immediately. Intuition tells him something is wrong, everything is wrong, Moodys may know something... Knowing him and Gordon...

He wanted to panic and lose his mind, but in the end he calmed down and called out: "His Royal Highness..."

But nothing came out.

"You and him should have known each other very early, at the age of thirteen, and you knew him when you were thirteen years old. It is considered that he deliberately approached you. Since then, you have maintained a strange connection. Few people know that you are familiar with each other, but in private you have always had a connection, and you often meet to avoid people's ears. He has done a lot for you, and you have used him to do a lot for you.” Moodys did. I didn’t press him, and I had to ask him for an answer. Instead, I chose to speak by myself and said everything I knew: "Even if your brother escapes from marriage, your family hopes you will marry me instead of him. , You didn’t want it at first, he had his handwriting to persuade you to compromise and marry me, right?"

The hairs on Zhuo Yang's whole body were erected, and the whole person was extremely nervous.

He had known that Moodys had a lot of power, and many things he wanted to find out could be found out, but he didn't know that he was so secretive that Gordon could reveal the secret things that Gordon carefully concealed over and over again. .

I can't hide it from him...

Moodys said: "Today, taking advantage of the opportunity of the little emperor's uncle to host this dinner, he met you privately again, and you talked for a long time. What did you say, what did he say to you?"

"Let me guess, it's probably related to my and our marriage." He tapped his index finger on the table: "He advised you to seduce me with emotions. With the crown prince, my legal partner, I have a relationship with me as soon as possible. Fortunately, my child, I will use this child and my two younger brothers to seize power and disrupt this country, right?"

When I first investigated these, Moodys was very uncomfortable, and because of this, he made an exception and drank so much alcohol regardless of his body.

He didn't think about how to continue to face Zhuo Yang, but now he can say these things calmly.

The fur of Zhuo Yang's whole body exploded, as did the fox in Moodys's arms.

Moodys saw him like this, and immediately said softly: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't eavesdrop on your conversations, and I don't know a lot. I just guess casually, but looking at your expression, I think I should be able to guess. Nine is not far from ten, right."

Zhuo Yang's spine collapsed into a mallet, stiff to the extreme, his hands were tightly clenched into fists, and his palms were full of cold sweat.

"I told you this. I didn't mean to threaten or intimidate you, nor did I mean to take you." Moodys stiffened the entire nine-tailed fox in his hand, and immediately used his warm big fox very gently. The palm of the fox moved his fur and rubbed the nine-tailed fox: "I am just out of the relationship between our husband and husband, and the relationship and position of our spouse in the legal sense want to remind you that Gordon Corey is not a good person. Not a person worthy of love."

He fixedly looked at Zhuo Yang and said, "You are very clever, yes... But in front of an old fox like him in the deep city of the political arena, I'm afraid he can't beat him, so he can only use it as his pawn. "

He is extremely patient with Zhuo Yang.

Zhuo Yang heard his words, but suddenly heaved a sigh of relief, and the whole person who was frozen in fright was unblocked.
