31.Chapter 031
"FiancΓ©?!"
Before Chen Jing's words fell, someone exclaimed, and several voices overlapped, and it was no longer possible to tell who was who.
President Brady was the first to react and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I attended the ball held by Mrs. Hall today, otherwise I wouldn't have heard such a happy event for the first time...... I just don't know, where was this engagement ceremony held? β
"There is no ceremony for the time being, and we still need to ask for the consent of Augustine the Great and Empress Winnie." Chen Jing explained to the president.
- If you can marry General Chen Jing, at least Emperor Augustine will raise his hands in favor!
President Brady thought so, and continued to smile and echo: "Of course! β
"Isn't Her Royal Highness the Princess completely unaware of such a big event?" Mrs. Sidney, of course, did not believe Chen Jing's words, and she turned her head to look at Princess Rebecca, as if to seek confirmation.
In fact, Princess Rebecca didn't expect this to happen.
Even if Chen Jing had defended Akx in front of her many times, even if he had been standing beside Akx since he entered the arena to erect a tight sensory barrier for him...... She thought that General Chen Jing was at most infatuated with Ax's beauty for a while, so he supported Akers in front of everyone.
didn't expect him to take the initiative to propose a "marriage contract......
- It seems that Chen Jing is not exempt from vulgarity, he has been completely fascinated by Ax...... If this matter is allowed to continue to develop, there is really no way to turn it back!
Princess Rebecca didn't want to be aggressive in front of Chen Jing, but the situation was urgent, and she couldn't care so much at the moment, so she could only join forces with Mrs. Sidney temporarily.
She didn't ask Chen Jing directly, but looked at Akers with a pair of beautiful eyes and said, "Akers, if there is such a thing, why don't you discuss it with your sister?" You have just come of age, and your elders are not around, how can the royal family recognize such a marriage contract? β
Her frowning look was particularly soft, as if she was sad because of her brother's alienation and ignorance, but the meaning was very clear.
A teenager who does not have his elders by his side cannot be responsible for the decisions he makes, not to mention that the aspects involved in this decision are too complicated, and it is definitely not something that can be decided in a few words.
But Princess Rebecca knew very well that as soon as Augustine the Great received the news, he would immediately get the marriage contract "with the consent and support of his parents", so that no one could stop the marriage contract for similar reasons.
So she had to find a way to stabilize Arkes first, so that he would voluntarily return to the embassy, or the guide's house, so that she would have time to make other arrangements.
So she continued: "We need to think about this matter in the long run, you go back to the embassy with me today, and we will communicate with my father together, explain the situation in detail, and then ask my father to help you with the details, so that you can also be justified, right?" Don't worry, with your sister by your side, your father will not be angry because you made your own decisions before. β
Princess Rebecca and Ax had little contact with each other during their time in Carter, and the only knowledge they had was from their brother, Prince Calvin, and how they "got along" when they first arrived in the Federation.
She believes that this "cowardly" younger brother will definitely hope that this "marriage contract" with Chen Jingxing will transition from a "verbal agreement" to "the dust settles".
She used "Augustine the Great will vindicate their name" as bait, and she will definitely get him to take the bait!
But what she never expected was that the feelings of Ax, which she had felt through guΓ² "empathy" before, had been "modified" by the Yuelao system.
And Ax is no longer the younger brother that Calvin, the eldest son of the emperor, is familiar with!
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Ax, who had been keeping his head down since General Chen Jing spoke, may not have experienced a smaller shock in his heart than others.
Although on the coming aircraft, the general had predicted that Mrs. Sidney of the Guide Guild would attack directly, and Princess Rebecca would not let go of this opportunity, which was likely to add fuel to the fire.
The general must become a "temporary guardian" in order to be qualified to protect him at all times.
is not an immediate family, just because of the relationship between Lady Lin and Empress Winnie, of course, there is no guarantee that the general can become a "temporary guardian".
Then the only identity that can make a general have this qualification is "fiancΓ©".
It was supposed to be a "delaying strategy", but the general was so serious and attentive when he asked for Aces' consent that Ax only needed to answer a "yes", and he became extremely cautious.
The general said, don't worry, leave it all to him.
So Ax didn't have to say anything, do anything, whether it was communicating with His Excellency the President, or going toe-to-toe with Mrs. Sidney, and the General stood in front of him to shield him from the outside storm.
Princess Rebecca's words, Axes heard very clearlyβshe was bewitching him!
As long as he has the slightest distrust of the general and a trace of uncertainty about the future, he will want to seize an opportunity to implement this "marriage contract" proposed by the general.
If he was really a timid and cowardly person, of course he would also want Princess Rebecca to accompany him to face his father, who had always been majestic.
Princess Rebecca knows people very well, and knows "him" very wellβif it's really him.
In fact, Akers really doesn't care when this "marriage contract" will come true, and whether it will come true.
Because the general's heart for him, whether in front of others or in front of him, had been expressed very thoroughly, so there was not a trace of hesitation in Akers's heart, and there was no uneasiness.
He simply didn't want to leave the general - so he didn't want to go to the guide's house or go back to the embassy!
β¦β¦
Princess Rebecca didn't get a response, and wanted to add a few more words, but Mrs. Sidney didn't intend to give Axes a chance to hide back at the embassy.
She stepped forward and said sternly to the little prince: "If you are still so tough and refuse to go to the guide's house, then we can only apply for one-way protection directly according to the usual practice." β
Applying for one-way protection, just like with His Royal Highness Rebecca, sending someone to keep an eye on Ax at all times, even if the other party is in the Marshal's Palace, must obey the arrangement - Mrs. Sidney's threat is very obvious.
This time, Akers didn't let Chen Jing continue to stand in front of him, and the little prince looked at Mrs. Sidney calmly, with a smile, and asked politely: "Madam, I heard that one-way protection is also for single guides who have no bonding partner, right?" β
- Since he has a "marriage contract" with the general, he is naturally not within the scope of the implementation of one-way protection. So Mrs. Sidney's threat could not scare him!
Mrs. Sidney's eyes widened, and she could hardly believe that Ax had contradicted her in public!
But the question he asked was very critical, and it could be said to hit the nail on the head, if Chen Jing's status as a "temporary guardian" was confirmed, of course the Guide Association could not apply for "one-way protection" for the prince.
Standing by and witnessing the whole process, President Brady thought that the little prince would not have the ability to fight back and would only hide under the wings of the marshal, but he did not expect that in the face of the double pressure of the mediator and his sister, the little prince could still deal with it calmly and calmly, completely unafraid of the threat of the other party.
Seeing that Mrs. Sidney was refuted, and they were about to get angry, President Brady spoke again, and said, "Oh my God, it's all come to this point, the ball hasn't started yet, and the young people are probably impatient!" If there's anything, let's talk about it slowly, and let's play the music first. β
After saying that, he motioned to Mrs. Hall to start the ball immediately, and he himself said to Princess Rebecca courteously, "I wonder if I have the honor of inviting the princess to dance?" β
Of course, Princess Rebecca was not in the mood to dance, but it was impossible for her to refuse His Excellency the President in public, so she could only accept the invitation with a stiff smile, seeing Akes and Chen Jing looking at each other sweetly, but she was helpless!
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
After the ball, although Princess Rebecca and Mrs. Sidney were still holding their own opinions, the little prince did not intend to pay attention to them at all, and he and Chen Jingxing would board the way back without looking back.
The two women looked at the flying machine in the air and were annoyed, so they could only temporarily stop and think of countermeasures.
However, while Axes waited for them to make further moves, an unexpected guest was welcomed to the Marshal's Mansion.
"Last time, it was unfortunate that when we arrived at the embassy, His Highness was not awake yet, so it was a pity that we couldn't meet each other." The lady across from Ax was about the same age as Mrs. Bailey at the embassy, and seemed to be just as kind and gentle.
It was difficult for Axes not to have a good impression of such an old lady, and he immediately said, "You came to see me, and I haven't thanked you yet." β
"That's all as it should be, it was our media person who misbehaved, I thought that the previous suspension review had taught her a lesson, but I didn't expect her to be so stubborn......"
Although Mrs. Reynolds is the vice president of the Federal Guide Association, and has the right to speak and vote at high-level meetings, she is mainly responsible for teaching and research, and is not involved in the day-to-day operation of the association.
Speaking of her former student, feeling a little regretful, she continued: "I have heard about the ball, congratulations to Your Highness and the General, and please rest assured, Mrs. Sidney's remarks do not represent the opinion of the Guide Association, and the General's application for temporary guardianship is fully eligible, and will be communicated in the near future." β
Acers glanced at Mrs. Reynolds in astonishmentβhe had not expected Mrs. Reynolds to have such an attitude, so reasonable.
"Actually, I came here today because I want to discuss something with His Highness," Mrs. Reynolds looked at the little prince, her eyes showing love and care for the junior: "I have come to JianyΓ¬ You, to participate in the study of the Guide Association." β
"General Chen Jing is the only dark guide in the Federation, his situation is very special, His Highness and the general have the same heart, this is already a very big advantage, if you can study systematically, I believe you will soon be able to help the general with spiritual counseling."
Madame Reynolds told her intentions, and with that, she paused and handed Axes a copy of the material.
"This is the teacher's information for teaching, when I was in the Guide Association, I would also accompany His Highness to study, this process may not be so interesting, even very hard, if you agree to participate in the study, please be sure to be mentally prepared for this."
Ax only roughly flipped through the information in his hand, and saw more than a dozen secondary guides, and couldn't help but sigh, worthy of the "guide" association, to have such a hand.
"I need to discuss this matter with the general." Although Mrs. Reynold's words had already moved Ax, he did not dare to agree immediately.
"Of course," Mrs. Reynolds nodded, "I will also talk to the general about this matter again, you should be entering the National University of Olbi next spring, and now is a good time to study." β
Thinking of something, she adds: "During this time, you don't need to stay in the guide's house, you just need to be on time according to the schedule. β
