64 Chapter 064 - The Engagement Ceremony
"I'll send you there for one night only, and the next morning, I'll pick you up."
As soon as Chen Jing finished saying this, he saw that Ax's eyes lit up, as if the overnight time had changed from three days to one night, how happy he was!
I don't know why, Chen Jing's heart stinged a little, and even Ax's bright smile couldn't heal him.
He suddenly wanted to say to the other party desperately: "We won't go to the embassy, and we won't care about Augustine the Great!" β
But he couldn't do thatβnot that he couldn't, but that Ax couldn't......
Because Ax is the son of Augustin the Great after all, before he officially got married, Chen Jing was just his temporary guardian, and Augustine the Great, as his father, had thousands of reasons to recruit Ax back to Carter.
Can Axes refuse? Of course.
But only if he disobeys his father and is ready to leave his country forever!
He even had to face countless criticisms and slanders, malicious speculations and even curses because of this...... Because the enraged Augustine the Great would not let him live happily in the Federation.
So, will the Federalists welcome such a man who has abandoned the country and has been abandoned by the state?
The answer is also obvious.
They didn't know the cause and effect of the incident, they only knew that the little prince's father wanted him to leave the embassy on the morning of the engagement, but the little prince even had to shirk this little thing.
They will doubt the character of the little prince, and then doubt Chen Jing, who dotes on him and makes him so disrespectful.
Chen Jing is the marshal of the Federation, and Akers is Carter's prince, they are not ordinary two people after all, and it is impossible to live without worries.
What's more, there is also Queen Winnie......
That kind lady didn't fight for anything for herself, but for the sake of Ax, she asked Mrs. Lin for help many times, and her heart was so affectionate and moving.
How could Axes abandon Queen Winnie and become a selfish person who only cares about himself?
If Axes fell out with Augustine the Great because of this incident, they could not estimate the form in which the other party would express his anger and absolute strength.
So Chen Jing could only make a certain degree of compromise, but only letting Akers go to the embassy for one night was also expressing his attitude.
- We can respect you, but we won't let you do whatever you want.
In this way, he did not offend the authority of Augustine the Great, avoid causing him to backlash, or even tear his face, but he was fighting for the rights of Ax, so that Augustine the Great understood that he could not respond to Acks' needs, so that he could understand their bottom line.
β¦β¦
Ignoring the disadvantages of Augustine the Great's order and forcefully refusing to go to the embassy, Qiuqiu had actually been discussed by Ax, so he decided that he still had to go after being worried and afraid!
It's just that he didn't expect that as soon as the general came back, he would shrink three days into one day, and he couldn't wait to jump up and kiss each other.
(Chen Jing: The result is not pro, bad reviews.) οΌ
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"General, let's go down to eat! Yangyang, they must be waiting for us! Akes's mood swept away the gloom like after the rain, and he even took the initiative to hold Chen Jing's hand and didn't feel shy.
Chen Jing's brows moved, and he didn't make a sound to remind him, and the two of them went downstairs "affectionately" like this.
Lin Zexin and Xiao Zhengtai really sat in their places, Lieutenant General Hain and Colonel Lin Zexi also came, plus Mr. Gray, and the five of them looked towards the stairwell.
I saw the little prince happily leading the general, who was expressionless but obviously very happy.
Xiao Lin breathed a long sigh of relief, and deliberately complained: "Why did you come down so late, I'm so hungry!" β
As he was talking, he saw a round thing stretched out in front of him, and Lin Zexin saw that it was Chen Xu who handed him the apple in the fruit bowl, signaling him to fill it in if he was "hungry".
- Well, before he even said anything about Ax, a flower messenger was dispatched!
His Highness Ax seemed to be in a good mood, and Mr. Gray was relieved.
When his general entered the door just now, he didn't see the little prince as usual, and when he heard the content of the communication from the Shivik Palace in the afternoon, his face was extremely bad, and he immediately went upstairs.
- It seems that the two of them have communicated well! Then there should be no problem.
Mr. Gray walked over to pull a chair for Axes and found the furball on it.
The little wolf cub had already seen Chen Jing beside Akers, so he hesitated for a moment and still didn't run over, but stayed in Akers' chair to "wait for the rabbit".
The little guy knows that Chen Jing's position is at the other end of the table! So I was very relieved to lie down on Akes's chair, playing with my little tail, while waiting for Akers to come.
Seeing its cute little appearance, Ax wanted to walk over and hug it for a long time, but who knew that the tall figure next to him did not go to the other side as usual, but took three steps and made two steps, and came to Ax's position.
His speed was so fast that the little wolf cub didn't have time to react at all, and when it raised its little head and stared at the "big mountain" that shaded the sun, there were already two "devil claws" stretched out to its cute little head and small claws.
Chen Jing first grabbed its two small front paws with one hand, and then touched the little guy's head all the way to its back with the other hand - rubbing it to be precise.
In this way, its supple fluff is kneaded like a storm, which is very abstract and wild "beauty".
After doing all this, in the little wolf cub's dull eyes, the "murderer" calmly withdrew his "crime tool", walked back to his position with an expressionless face, and announced: "Let's eat." β
The little wolf cub remained motionless in that side-lying position, as if he had not yet recovered from his stupor, and he turned his head to look at Ax, who looked dull and cute with a mess of fur on his head.
Akers couldn't help but laugh "poof", the little wolf cub seemed to finally understand what he had experienced, it got up from the chair, screamed, and stretched out its little claws to reach the table, as if it wanted to cross the entire dining table and go to find Chen Jing to "take revenge".
Ax hurriedly ran up, scooped the little furball into his arms, and couldn't help but smile and comforted: "Miao'er is the most well-behaved, we are going to eat, Miao'er is obedient." β
As he spoke, he helped it straighten out the messy fur, but the curvature of the corners of his mouth still revealed his heart.
The little wolf cub that was "shun" finally stopped, twisted its little buttocks, found a comfortable position, and obediently sat on Akes's lap.
Chen Jing, who was already sitting on the opposite side, saw that Akes finally even had a smile in his eyes, and was very satisfied with the role of a small hairball.
After eating, Akers, who had unloaded his burden, took Xiao Zhengtai back to his room to watch the little wolf cub running around after the air rail train to pass the time.
He didn't know that Chen Jing returned to the study and instructed Mr. Gray: "Help me connect to the Carter embassy, and I want to talk to Crown Prince Calvin." β
- He's willing to do anything, as long as it makes Ax smile!
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
As the days passed, as the date of the engagement ceremony drew closer, the Marshal's Mansion was in full swing.
After dinner on the last day, Ax went back to his room to check what he had packed.
- Spend the night away, and tomorrow morning I have to leave the Carter embassy to go to church, and I have a lot of stuff to take with me.
Qiuqiu lay on the bed, her round little body was completely sunk into the quilt, almost integrated with the bed: "I really didn't expect that you, who have never been in love in your twenties, will become the first one to get married among my hosts!" β
Ax: "......"
- You really don't need to add that prefix, thanks!
"Calculate it this way, it's only been seven months since you first met, it should be considered a flash marriage!" Qiuqiu thought about it for a while, and suddenly became excited: "Then will I have a little host soon!" "It's the kind that is soft, white and tender, and it sucks your fingers!
Arkes' face was a little hot when he heard this, and he said hesitantly: "We are just engaged, not married yet......
"The engagement is already here, will the marriage be far away?!" Qiuqiu struggled forward from the quilt: "Family life is very important, you should learn now, how to be a competent fiancΓ©!" "It will be happy to give him advice and guidance!
Probably attracted by Qiuqiu's words, Akers was silent for a while, and muttered: "Actually, even if you live in the Marshal's Mansion, you may not be able to see the general every day." β
"It's not easy, when you graduate, or complete all the courses in the Guide Association, you can go to Chen Jing's side to help him!" Qiuqiu thought of something and continued: "Actually, you may not be able to wait that long, Chen Jing has already had a moderate fugue, and he may soon need you to stay by his side all the time." β
- If the situation continues to deteriorate...... The Dark Sentinels aren't omnipotent, either.
Seeing that Akers stopped what he was doing and fell into deep thought, Qiuqiu jumped off the bed, jumped to his side, stretched out a small claw and patted his leg: "The boat is naturally straight to the bridge, and all you can do is to be yourself." β
Akers nodded, he put the box up, and then sat down on the sofa, waiting for Chen Jing and Mr. Gray to come to him.
After a while, Chen Jing really walked in, and Akers immediately stood up and asked, "General, are you going to leave now?" β
"Well," Chen Jing touched his hair and said softly, "Where's the thing?" β
"Here it is." Akes pointed to his suitcase, grabbed a hooded coat from the sofa, and handed it to Chen Jing.
Mr. Gray stepped forward and pushed the box away, and Chen Jing took Ax's coat.
"Then we're going." Chen Jing said to Axes.
At this time, in Xiao Zhengtai's room, Lin Zexin was accompanying Chen Xu, and when he saw the bright light from the aircraft on the tarmac, he couldn't help pouting: "I don't know what kind of ghost father the emperor is, I have to let Ax live in the embassy, how can it be more comfortable than his own home!" β
It seemed that in response to Lin Zexin's words, the little wolf cub who was playing with a building block next to him stopped his little paw and barked a few times.
Xiao Zhengtai's ears moved, but he didn't look out the window and continued to play the puzzle game in his hand.
"Yangyang, you are so quiet today, why don't you go to send His Highness Ax?" Lin Zexin was given a sacred mission by the little prince - to play with Xiao Zhengtai until he went to sleep.
Now that the little guy has no intention of going out, Lin Zexin can't leave him alone to send Axes.
Xiao Zhengtai was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "No." β
"What costume? Don't send it? Xiao Lin didn't hear Xiao Zhengtai's words clearly, and saw that he didn't mean to repeat, so he scratched his head and said: "Forget it, if you don't send it, you won't send it, anyway, it's not a good place to go." β
Tomorrow is the big day for Akers and Chen Jingxing, but the little prince, who is the groom-to-be, has to rush to a strange place overnight, and I don't know if he will recognize the bed?
If you don't sleep well, you will have a dark circle under your eyes tomorrow, how bad it is!
Xiao Lin felt that his good friend was so pitiful, he knew that he would go over to stay with him for one night, so he let Akers have someone to accompany him!
The matter has come to this, he plans to get up a little earlier tomorrow and follow the earliest flying machine here in the Marshal's Mansion to see the situation of Ax first!
Soon after, on the other side, Crown Prince Calvin took his men to wait for the Marshal's Mansion aircraft on the tarmac of the embassy.
An official from an embassy next to him said politely: "Your Highness, it's so late now, it's too hard for you to wait here, it's better to go back and rest early, just let us stay here." β
Calvin glanced at the middle-aged man with a Mediterranean hairstyle, knowing that he was Augustine the Great's person, and said indifferently: "I don't feel at ease if I don't see Akers coming over with my own eyes." β
The official praised a few more words, saying that His Royal Highness Calvin and His Royal Highness Axes are brothers and sisters, and they are simply models of brothers and sisters in the royal family and even the whole country.
Calvin listened to the other party's words, sneered in his heart, and did not continue to speak.
After a while, the flying machine of the Marshal's Mansion finally arrived, and it was Chen Jing who walked in the front, and there was a young man in a hooded jacket standing next to him, who was a little sluggish from the state, and they slowly walked down from the flying machine.
The middle-aged official was about to catch up, but a tall figure next to him quickly overtook him and also walked towards the flying machine.
It seems that the praise of "brother, friend and brother" just now has been implemented, and Crown Prince Calvin said something to the boy.
Because Chen Jingxing and Crown Prince Calvin were guarding the little prince on the left and right, the people from the embassy naturally stood on the periphery, and no one dared to come over to look.
The middle-aged official tried several times, but was frightened by the eyes of Chen Jing or Crown Prince Calvin, and he didn't dare to get closer.
He looked hard and was relieved to find that the boy was indeed Prince Ax.
- Anyway, Chen Jing personally sent the Axes Hall over, he can already report to Emperor Augustine, so don't joke with his own life!
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
After a long night, the first rays of the morning sun finally hit the earth.
Lin Zexin woke up to the alarm clock he set, he didn't lie in bed as usual, but quickly got up to wash, change clothes, and walked to the general's building.
- He was going to take the first flying machine with Mr. Gray and set off for Carter's embassy first.
In the general's building, Chen Jing was already ready, and he said to Lin Zexin: "Hai En and Zexi will come with me, and Mr. Gray will take you to the embassy first." β
Xiao Lin nodded to show that he knew, and he glanced to the side - he didn't expect Yang Yang to wake up so early!
Lin Zexin sat down and touched his head: "Yangyang, we'll go to the embassy later, I don't know if His Royal Highness Akers slept well." β
"Not bad." A familiar voice came to my ears.
Xiao Lin didn't think about it, and immediately answered: "That's good!" β
After a while, as if sensing something, he widened his eyes and looked to the side, and saw Ax approaching and taking his place, and Mr. Gray himself bringing him breakfast.
"You...... Why are you here?! Lin Zexin stammered in surprise.
Akers stretched out a finger and put it on his mouth and made a "shhh
Probably thinking that he had really been a little excited just now, Lin Zexin looked around nervously, lowered his voice and said, "What's the matter?" β
"I don't live in an embassy." Axle said.
"Didn't live?!" Lin Zexin glanced at the general who was eating breakfast quietly, and suddenly had a guess in his heart: "The embassy ...... over there"
"Well, somebody's covering for me." Ax nodded.
Accompanied by General Chen Jingxing last night, Akers really went to the embassy, but he didn't stay, but came back in disguise.
Because of the sensory barrier of the dark sentinels, other people can't feel the existence of the second seat of Ax at all.
With the help of someone from the embassy, Axes successfully left the embassy without anyone knowing, and returned to the marshal's palace.
- He didn't expect that Crown Prince Calvin not only turned a blind eye and didn't notice it, but was willing to help deal with the aftermath.
You must know that although everyone witnessed the arrival of the little prince at the embassy, it is not easy for them to continue to believe that Akers did indeed sleep in the embassy room.
"Then I'm relieved!" Lin Zexin pushed Akers' shoulder: "Why didn't you say it earlier, let me worry in vain!" β
"I didn't know what the situation was in the past, and I didn't know if it would go well, so I didn't tell you first, so as not to make you worry if it didn't work," Akers explained, "When we came back, you and Yangyang were already asleep, so I didn't bother you." β
Lin Zexin thought about it, and last night in order to get up early the next day, he deliberately went back to his room after accompanying Yangyang to wash up and go to bed.
Thinking about it, it was probably ten o'clock when Akers came back, and he had fallen asleep early by then.
He suddenly thought of something again, and hurriedly asked, "Then what should I do this morning?" β
- The people at the embassy won't find out that the little prince is actually gone, right?!
"There are still people who will help me cover up, there should be no problem." Akers said to Kobayashi.
Crown Prince Calvin did not let "Ax" go to his original room in the embassy, but deliberately arranged his younger brother next door to his room.
In this way, no one has the audacity to come and trouble His Royal Highness the Crown Prince-Calvin, as the chief sentinel, can easily discover the whereabouts of the "snoopers".
"We'll go over together later, and then I'll sneak to the room that was prepared for me."
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
When most of the Carter embassy woke up, they were immediately informed that the advance troops of the Marshal's Mansion had arrived at the embassy!
"So early?!" The middle-aged official with the Mediterranean Sea climbed out of bed and hurried to get ready to go out.
When he had all the work done and then rushed to Crown Prince Calvin's residence, the butler of the Marshal's Mansion and Chen Jing's cousin were already sitting in His Royal Highness Akers' room drinking morning tea.
He grabbed one of the maids and asked, "What about His Highness Calvin and His Highness Ax?" β
The maid said: "His Royal Highness Calvin is in the room, he just sent breakfast, His Highness Akers has just woken up, and the people from the Marshal's Mansion are waiting for His Highness to change clothes in his room." β
"Why don't you go in and serve?!" The middle-aged official reproached: "Is it so rude to let the guests look at us?" β
"Lady Bailey is also in there, and His Highness Calvin says there is no need for so many people," the maid pulled out her sleeve, "If you have nothing else to do, I'll go to the kitchen." β
- Is there any mistake, everyone is dying, this guy is still asking questions!
The middle-aged official didn't dare to get angry at this time, so he had to let the maid leave, and he looked at the guards sent by the Crown Prince Calvin and the Marshal's Mansion to protect His Highness Akers in the aisle, but he didn't dare to come over.
β¦β¦
In the room at this time, Ax, who had "just woken up", washed up again, and with the help of Mrs. Bailey and Mr. Gray, he changed into his dress.
Mrs. Bailey looked at the little prince's delicate and energetic little face, and her heart was full of emotion.
- I always felt that it was yesterday that he left the embassy to go to the Marshal's Palace, but now it seems that he has grown up so much!
Madame Bailey could not help but feel distressed when she thought of the sad situation of His Highness Ax when he first came to the Federation, and now that he was in good spirits, he looked confident and happy, which was really a happy thing!
"His Highness Axes looks so good no matter what he wears." Mrs. Bailey said with a smile.
"That's what you said." Mr. Gray chimed in.
The two elders looked at him with a smile, but he looked embarrassed at Ax, and he wondered if he should go to the bedroom to hide first.
At that moment, Mr. Gray looked at the prompt on the terminal and smiled even more happily, and he turned to Axes and said:
"General, they have already set off from the Marshal's Palace!" 166 Reading Network
