9. Chapter 009 - Little Shota
No sooner had Ax said his mouth than the boy ducked behind the pillar.
At this time, his spirit body ran to the front of the pillar with his little short legs, as if he had found a backer, turned around and put on the same posture as just now, pouted his little buttocks, and continued to yell in the direction of Ax.
Arkes resisted the urge to look down at the little furball, and patiently asked again, "Do you live here too?" What is your name? ”
- Xiao Zheng looks too much like a general, with an expressionless little face and a pair of deep eyes, at first glance it looks quite imposing!
Akers admired General Chen Jing extremely much in his heart, and he naturally fell in love with this "miniature version" at first sight, but unfortunately the other party stared at him for a while, and suddenly turned around and ran away.
As soon as he ran like this, the little furball naturally followed him far away, and turned his head to see if Akers was chasing after him, looking like there was a bad guy behind him......
"......" Akers.
His current appearance is obviously all-old and young, loved by everyone, and flowers bloom when he suddenly gets such treatment, Ax wants to cry without tears - little baby, don't run! He's really not blaming Shu Xiao!
……
For three days in a row, Akes drank afternoon tea in the pavilion, and continued to find reasons to take the two maids, either to let them rearrange the study, or to let them go to the library of the marshal's palace to help him find books, in short, not to let them serve in front of him.
Jenny heard His Royal Highness Ax privately complain that she didn't like Martha, and thought that the princess's plan had worked, so she immediately made a look of allegiance, pretending to help Her Highness keep an eye on Martha.
But he didn't know that Ax had already hinted to Mr. Gray that the two maids were not very "caring", and he was worried that they would get into trouble one day, so he wanted Mr. Gray to help watch a little.
In the face of His Royal Highness the Prince's frankness, Mr. Gray was a little surprised at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he also guessed something, and immediately said that he would definitely make proper arrangements and not let Jenny and Martha go wrong in the Marshal's Mansion.
……
originally thought that staying in the pavilion all afternoon like this might not be able to see Chen Xu again, but Akers was actually ready to return disappointed.
Who knew that his "appearance charm" was actually not bad, and the next day he attracted Xiao Zhengtai to hide behind the pillar to watch him.
And the silver-gray puppy, oh no, Qiuqiu said that it was the cub of the polar wolf, and naturally it was like the first day, with a little milk voice, with a small appearance of "warn you not to come, I will call someone if you come".
Ax likes this round little hairball in his heart, but he can't show how he can see it, so he can only use Carter's dim sum to "seduce" Xiao Zhengtai.
"Little girl, do you want to have a snack?" Unaware that he was smiling badly, Akers squatted not far from the pillar, holding a plate and waving to Xiao Zhengtai.
The snack was specially selected by Akers, firstly, the taste was particularly fragrant, and the thick cream and sweetness could be smelled from more than ten meters away, and secondly, it was exclusively provided by Carter's royal family, and only the pastry chef he brought to the Marshal's Mansion would make it......
Who knew that Xiao Zhengtai calmly glanced at the fragrant dim sum, and then at the "ill-intentioned" Akers, turned his head decisively, and ran away again.
Qiuqiu couldn't see it, and laughed at him in his consciousness: "The little sentinel has already refused to smell the fragrance with a sensory barrier, and you can't even fool a five-year-old child with this little trick, so don't take it out and be embarrassed." ”
"......" Akers.
Ax turned his grief and anger into appetite, and the next day he put three plates of dim sum on the table, and stuffed them one in one bite in front of Xiao Zhengtai, ready to eat them all.
As a result, when he ate the last plate, he almost choked himself, so he hurriedly drank two sips of tea and patted his chest before swallowing it.
"What's that?" A milky child's voice floated over.
It wasn't loud, but Ax heard it, and he looked behind the pillar in some surprise - did the kid talk to him?!
Xiao Zhengtai saw him look over, but he didn't answer his question, thinking that he didn't hear clearly, so he said it again, hesitated for a few seconds, and asked, "Is it delicious?" ”
"Also...... It's okay......" Akers, who had been looking forward to it for a long time, suddenly got Xiao Zhengtai's care, and he was a little excited in his heart, and he stammered a little when he spoke.
This time, he was not impulsive, put another piece of snack in his mouth, and asked while chewing and pretending not to care, "Do you want to try it?" ”
Xiao Zhengtai looked at the two small pieces of dim sum left on the plate, and was still a little hesitant in his heart, but he saw that Akers had thrown another piece into his mouth, and there was only one piece of dim sum left on the plate in a blink of an eye!!
Akes squinted his eyes and ate with relish, but in fact, secretly observed Xiao Zhengtai and found that he frowned.
- Oh, I'll go, I really deserve to be the marshal's own brother, and the frowning looks are exactly the same!
Akes took another sip of tea from the cup, touched his stomach and pretended not to eat, and muttered in his mouth: "There is another piece, what should I do?" ”
At this moment, a small hand reached up to the table, but instead of reaching for the plate, it rested lightly on the edge of the table.
Ax looked over and saw Xiao Zhengtai standing next to the table, his eyes fixed on the plate. The little wolf cub squatted next to him, and didn't bark anymore, and the little tail wagged around, as if it was in a hurry.
"You helped me eat it, I really can't eat it." Akers "pleaded".
Xiao Zhengtai glanced up at him, as if he wanted to judge from his expression whether he was really sincere.
Akes immediately put on a misty look - this look is very useful to Mrs. Bailey anyway, as long as Axes puts it out, Madame Bailey must be responsive to him!
Sure enough, Xiao Zhengtai frowned again, and finally reached out and grabbed the snack in his hand, but did not eat it immediately.
He glanced at the smiling Arkes, turned and staggered away.
Ax looked at his small figure running away, not intending to catch up.
At this time, Qiuqiu sighed in his consciousness and said: "This kid's sensory barrier really has a problem, there is a problem for a while, there is no one for a while, it seems that he has been injured at the gate of the Far Star Domain." ”
"How can Mrs. Lin and the marshal rest assured that he should run around the courtyard like this alone......" Ax felt that he should still mention the matter to Mr. Gray.
"You'll be exposed when you say it," Qiuqiu stopped him, "In their opinion, Chen Xu hasn't awakened at all, and now only you can see the cubs of the polar wolf." And it's not that no one is following him, it's just that he is standing far away and you can't see it. ”
Akers was stunned......
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
In the evening, Akers ate alone, and Mr. Gray came to greet him as he had done the other day, but he still did not mention the afternoon's affairs, and Axes did not know how to speak.
After getting along with the little prince for a few days, although Mr. Gray, who was the last guide, did not deliberately try, he could also feel that the little prince was not a treacherous and cunning person, on the contrary, this noble young man still had an innocent loveliness, kindness and friendliness.
Seeing that the prince seemed to have something to ask, Mr. Gray guessed that the other party actually wanted to know the general's whereabouts, but he was too embarrassed to speak, so he took the initiative to say: "The general said that he would come back tomorrow night and have dinner with His Highness." ”
Ax was a little surprised when he heard this.
Two days before he came to the Marshal's Palace, everyone had dinner together because the general was there. Later, the date of the joint military exercise was approaching, and the affairs of the military department became more and more busy, and I didn't see anyone for two days in a row, and when the general came back tomorrow, he would have dinner with him again!
Ax doesn't think he can have such a big face!
What he didn't know was that in fact, after Mrs. Lin communicated with him, she communicated with General Chen Jing and asked her son to take care of Axes again.
Chen Jing didn't even interfere with the lives of his two cousins, let alone a prince in a foreign country!
There is Mr. Gray at home, and he doesn't have to think about Akes' life at all, so he thought that everyone would have dinner together, so that His Royal Highness Akers and his cousin Lin Zexin could have some exchanges, and his peers could talk.
Although the effect was not obvious, Chen Jing still tried his best to take on the responsibility of "taking care".
I can't really say anything when I'm eating with the general, but it's a joy to be with my idol, Ax nodded with a smile.
But he didn't be happy for long, he calmed down again, hesitated for a moment, and still spoke: "I was in the courtyard, it seems that I met the general's younger brother, the child is so young, and he is always alone...... Why didn't anyone follow him? ”
After discussing with Qiuqiu, Ax still decided to talk to Mr. Gray, after all, the child is too young, no matter what, someone has to watch it anytime and anywhere, standing so far away, in case the child bumps and hurts, where will the people who follow have time to rush over!
As long as he doesn't mention the polar wolf and the sensory barrier, and just talks about things purely from Chen Xu's age, there will be no danger of being discovered.
When Mr. Gray heard this, he bowed slightly and said, "Young Master Xu usually doesn't go out of the room much, but he suddenly ran into the courtyard of His Highness, and the entourage didn't dare to step forward when they saw His Highness reading alone. ”
The implication is that His Royal Highness Akers is a distinguished guest, and Chen Xu is a small master, and the people next to him can only stand far away, so it is not easy to disturb them.
"It's okay, it's okay, you let them follow a little closer, the safety of the children is the most important thing." Akers hurriedly said.
Mr. Gray nodded silently in his heart, and said more respectfully, "Yes, Your Highness." ”
When Akers saw Chen Xu again the next day, he saw that someone was hiding not far away, and he was finally a little relieved.
It's just that he didn't expect that when he was eating in the evening, as soon as he walked into the restaurant, he saw two expressionless faces sitting at the dining table.
