Chapter Seventy-Six: The End of Life

On February 18, 143 AH, the Cat named Kiki, whom Byron had in his family, died. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The royal family held a simple funeral for it, burning its body and scattering dust into Yongfeng Lake. At the funeral, Kiki, as the princess, seemed very unenergetic.

She secretly counted her years and found that she was less than ten years away from the maximum lifespan of the Taeyong elf. Taeyong elves live up to sixty years, but most of them die around the age of fifty-five. Kiki knew how long she would live, but she found that Shirley was not yet an adult when she died, so she seemed very unmotivated.

If I had known His Majesty earlier, and married His Majesty earlier, would I have been able to watch Shirley come of age?

The lifespan of the Taeyong Fairy cannot be changed, and it cannot be extended in various ways like other races. When you are born, you live, and when you die, you die, this is the Taeyong goblin. They are not afraid of death, they just care about the living and do not want them to be sad.

Do you want to tell everyone about it?

Kiki thought about it for many days, but finally decided not to say it, so as not to worry everyone.

Shirley notices her mother's abnormality and thinks that she is sad because of the death of the cat of the same name, so she begs Maier to give Kiki a cat. Maier asks Kiki to buy a white kitten, and Kiki receives the cat, knowing that everyone is thinking about her, so she cheers up and returns to her usual appearance.

Shirley doesn't like to study, but she's afraid of Gray and her mother's discipline, so she has to bite the bullet and learn. On March 10, when Mel was going to inspect the regular army barracks, Shirley thought it was a good opportunity to skip class and clamored to go with him. Under the soft and hard bubble of her daughter, Maier had to take her with her to inspect.

On the way to the barracks, Shirley and Mel rode together and sat in front of their father. When she's not in class, she occasionally runs to Myer's office and sits on his lap watching him work. Shirley said that she wanted to learn how to ride a horse, and Mel agreed to teach her, and when she arrived at the barracks and finished the inspection, Mel let Shirley ride the foal that Tal had brought and teach her how to ride.

Shirley was clever enough to ride around on the foal in just ten minutes. The little princess's laughter soon spread to every corner of the barracks, adding a little more color to the boring barracks life.

Mel spent the night in the barracks, and Shirley slept in the same tent as her father. Before going to bed, Mel had to review some official documents, and he asked Shirley to sleep first, but Shirley sat on her father's lap as usual, watching him work. Maier couldn't bear to let her daughter sleep too late, so she had to stop work early.

Shirley wanted to sleep with her father, and Meier, who had never rested with the child, felt something new, so she let Shirley fall asleep on his arm. Mel soon fell asleep, but Shirley couldn't. She looked at Myer's face intently, sometimes poking it with her tiny fingers, sometimes touching it carefully. At first, Mel would open her eyes and look at her, causing Shirley to laugh "giggles", and then she fell asleep.

Seeing that her father no longer opened his eyes, Shirley moved a little more, but Mel still did not wake up. Shirley kissed Mel on the cheek, but Mel still didn't respond. Finally, Shirley boldly kissed Mel on the lips, and Mel hugged Shirley tighter, but still did not wake up.

From then on, every time Mel went to the barracks, Shirley would follow. Shirley asks Mel what it takes to become a general. Maier replied that he should learn martial arts and military strategy. Shirley asked Mel again how to learn martial arts and military strategy. Mel replied, "There are several skilled martial artists among your mothers, and it would be good to learn from Gray if you are a military strategist."

So Shirley gave up her time to play and went to the princesses to learn martial arts. Al, as Shirley's little tail, also went to learn. Shirley went to Gray again to learn military strategy, and Al listened to Shirley twice before never going again.

Al doesn't like to use her brain, she doesn't want to be a general - she doesn't even have a goal, to be exact, because she doesn't bother to think about it. Al likes the kind of powerful martial arts that open and close, and she learns how to use long-handled weapons with Xiaoxiao and two-handed swords from Leah, but she doesn't show much interest in other weapons.

Shirley and Al are both studying, and Hart is always there with the Della and Ryla sisters and doesn't come out to play. Of the seven children born in 135 A.D., only Willy and Wayne remained, and they didn't like to be in their rooms like Deira and Raella, but they were too bored to hang out.

Willy chose to help the princesses raise their children, eight of whom were born in 141 New Calendar: Rimma, Lila, Anne, Hammer, Anna, Elena, Betty, and Julia. The five children born in the year 137 of the new calendar have all grown up, namely Chengzhi, Chengxian, Mingli, Dingwu and Jingsi, and they are all old enough to receive an education, and they also attend classes with Gray, and Wayne often plays with them.

When Liu Yuan, Liu Fei and Dora came to play in the Qingshi Palace, there were usually only Wayne, Chengzhi, Chengxian, Mingli, Dingwu and Jingsi, and everyone else was busy with their own things. Sometimes Hart can't resist convincing Deella and Rela to come out and play with everyone, but he is still tied between the two sisters.

At this time, Liu Fei will help him break the siege. Hart was very fond of this gentle big sister with beast ears and tail, and Deira and Rela were often jealous of it.

On April 17, Gray approached Nami for a conversation. He thinks that among the four brothers Chengzhi, Chengxian, Mingli and Dingwu, Dingwu is the most suitable to be the heir to the throne, and wants to ask her opinion. Nanyi was very busy that day, and she thought it was good to do anything like this, so she asked him to talk to Xiaoxiao.

In this way, Xiaoxiao was called by Gray to talk about the crown prince for the second time. As the person who actually raised Dingwu, Xiaoxiao felt that Dingwu was indeed a leader, and he should not suffer much when he received the crown prince's education, so he gave an affirmative answer for Nanyi.

In this way, Gray began to train Dingwu as a crown prince and was very strict with him. Dingwu has half of the Ira's youkai blood, and he has been very mature since birth, and he has grown very quickly psychologically. The so-called strict teaching of the Leting people seemed too easy for Dingwu, who aimed at his father and mother, because it was much lower than the standard he had set for himself.

Dingwu is a very self-motivated child, and he can also learn and play at the same time, and he is a genius in the eyes of ordinary people. But Dingwu didn't consider himself a genius, because his talent for Leyting's magic was weak, and his talent for witchcraft was also weak. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't learn either of these abilities.

In contrast, meditation is a genius in this regard. Her Leiting talent for magic is extremely high, as is her talent for hex. At just five years old, she was already able to use magic arrows and fire abilities, much to Gray's surprise.

Unlike her flamboyant mother, Jing Si has a very introverted personality, and when others praise her, she will blush because of her shyness. She is very sticky to Dingwu, because among the brothers born in the same year as her, only Dingwu is the most reliable and can take care of people.

Chengzhi and Chengxian are two naughty eggs, how unreliable and unreliable they are. Mingli is honest and reliable, but he likes to be alone, and he treats helping others as a nuisance. Only Dingwu is mature and steady, like a little adult. He would even take care of people older than him, and once a maid from the Qingshi Palace was punished for making a mistake and hid in the corner crying, Dingwu generously walked over to comfort her, and gave her the dried fruits he brought with him.

Dingwu had a good relationship with Hart, because Hart always came to him to complain. Hart said that no matter what he did, he would make the girl unhappy, Dingwu asked him what he had done, Hart explained to him truthfully, and then Dingwu helplessly held his forehead.

He advised Hart that you better stay away from the girls and not be too nice to them. Be nice to whoever you like, and don't pay attention to the girls you don't like.

Hart said, I don't have a girl I don't like, and then Dingwu rubbed his temples and squatted on the ground, his face wrinkled like a prune. Dingwu said to Hart, you will definitely do the same thing as me in the future because of women. Hart didn't believe it and wanted to make a bet with Dingwu, but Dingwu ignored him.

Another two years passed, and by the end of the 145th year of the new calendar, all children born in the 135th year of the new calendar had reached the age of 10, and all children born in the year 137 of the new calendar were 8 years old. The child, born in the year 141 of the new calendar, turned four years old and was old enough to receive an education, and entered Gray's classroom.

Soon after the eight new students enrolled, the first batch of seven students graduated. They have graduated from basic education and can learn what they want to learn according to their preferences.

Gray brings in Darith and asks him to teach the seven graduates Leting magic. When it comes to Leyting's magic, Darius is much stronger than Gray. Alice was taught by him, and before she was sixteen, Darius taught her all his skills. As long as she practiced diligently, she would be able to reach her father's level in fifty years at most.

Since Alice was about to get married at the age of sixteen, Darius had no time to train her patiently, so he could only instill in her all the basics, and she needed to understand the deep things on her own through repeated practice. Unfortunately, Alice didn't practice Leting's magic hard, so she was only slightly stronger than when she first met Myer. If Alice had been learning Letting's magic from her father, she would definitely be much stronger than Mel by now, and might even beat Mel.

On December 10, 145 New Calendar, Darith returned to the Bluestone Palace and became the mentor of Hart, Shirley, Al, Willy, Dela, Raella, and Wayne in the magic of Leting. Two years later, Dingwu, Mingli, Chengzhi, Chengxian, and Jingsi also became his students, but by that time the first seven students had already graduated.

Darius knew that the princes and princesses had a lot to learn, and they couldn't devote themselves to the realm of Leitin's magic. Therefore, he taught the princes and princesses in the same way as he taught Alice, instilling all the basics in them, so that they could understand and improve their strength in the repeated practice in the future.

On January 15, 148 New Calendar, 12-year-old Shirley went to the King's Guard as a trainee officer, and her arrival brought a morale boost to the King's Guard for half a year. Al went to the police department in Byron City as a trainee police officer, and the decision was made by flipping a coin. Wayne went to the scientific research department, because Liu Yuan and Liu Fei were there, and she went to play with them.

The remaining four remained in the Bluestone Palace. Willy volunteered to experience life in the maid of the guard, and Hart wanted to go to the research department, but Deira and Rela wouldn't allow him to go, so the three of them sat back down as students. This time, instead of going to class, they followed their schedule to learn skills from the princesses and do the homework they had left behind.

In the same year, Dora was sent to the Bluestone Palace by Pershing and became a trainee maid. She is often with Willy, who takes care of Hamel as a maid, and Dora becomes Ham's maid as well.

In June of the same year, at Liu Xiu's suggestion, Maier established the "Kingdom Academy" between the Qingshi Palace and the officials' office area. The completion of the Kingdom College was completed in February 149 and officially opened on March 1, 150 AH. Children of central officials, local officials, local officials, officials and staff of institutions directly under the royal family, as well as those who have achieved excellent results in private colleges, can enter the Kingdom College.

In the year when the Kingdom College was officially put into use, Kiki finally told everyone the news of her checkmate death. At that time, she had less than three months to live.

On the night of August 15, 150 New Calendar, Princess Kiki died peacefully in her sleep. Seven days later, the Byrons family held a state funeral for Princess Kiki.

Although we have been prepared, the pain of losing our mother will not be alleviated by preparation. After the funeral, Mel went to Shirley's room to comfort her. Shirley wept on Myer's chest for a long time, and in the evening, Shirley begged Mel to stay with her, and Mel agreed.

He let her fall asleep on his arm as he had done the first time he had slept with Shirley in his arms. Shirley still couldn't sleep, but neither could Mel this time. She had the audacity to put her body on Myel, who thought she was still grieving, so she hugged her tighter. Shirley took this action as a sign of Maier's acceptance of herself, and closed her eyes and kissed Maier's lips.

Mel was stunned by Shirley's behavior, and in a moment of relief, he pushed Shirley away. He didn't leave there, but seriously asked Shirley what she thought. Shirley says that she has liked Mel since she was a child and wanted to be Mel's bride, and her mind has not changed until now.

Shirley says she can't replace her mother, but she's willing to take care of her for her. Mel said solemnly to Shirley, you are my daughter, I am your father, we will not be united now, and we will not be in the future. This made Shirley very sad, but she nodded obediently, making Mel think that she had given up on the idea.
