3. Chapter III
Because Song Xiaokai's two mermaid brothers were too high-profile, and Qin Xuan did not deliberately block the news, unconsciously, the news that "the heir of the Qin family is about to marry the son of the mine owner" quietly spread. When it reached the interstellar network, it instantly triggered a 12-magnitude earthquake...... Soon, both those who should know about it and those who shouldn't have heard similar rumors.
Of course, most people look at this with the mentality of watching a good show - they think that the sons of the mine owners must be crazy, otherwise how could they say such a leper □□ want to eat swan meat.
Song Xiaokai's two mermaid brothers naturally saw the evaluation of them on the Internet, they were not angry, but they were even more proud in their hearts, secretly thinking, when the commander came to their house and decided on this marriage, they must trample those people under their feet to see who is "leprosy □□ wants to eat swan meat"!
Obviously, they all took the position of the commander-in-chief's wife as something they had in their pockets.
The day before Qin Xuan set off for the location of the mine, two uninvited guests were welcomed at home.
"Xuan, I heard you have a doll kiss?" Ignoring the butler's obstruction, a feminine-looking man directly broke into Qin Xuan's study and asked in an anxious tone.
Qin Xuan frowned, and looked at the person who came with a blank gaze - he had said that no one could enter the study without his permission, after all, his identity was special, and there were many confidential information in the study that could not be known to outsiders.
Even if this person is his childhood sweetheart since he was a child, his current subordinate, Yu Chu.
"It's true." Qin Xuan replied calmly, but did not tell Yu Chu his intention to withdraw from the marriage.
"I don't believe it! Forget about one Song Xiaokai, why is there an extra son of a mine owner now?! Qin Xuan, can't you see my efforts over the years?! ”
"If your so-called 'pay' is to disobey military orders, leave your post without authorization, and cause a large number of casualties, then I'm sorry, I'd rather you don't do anything!" Qin Xuan said coldly. At the beginning, he did not agree to let Yu Chu enter his army, because Yu Chu was incapable and heartless. Helplessly, Old Man Yu insisted that he wanted to give his grandson a chance to exercise, and used his connections to shoehorn Yu Chu in.
The Yu family is also a big family, if it weren't for the fact that the imperial king has become more and more suspicious in recent years, and the old families are not good at infighting, he would have kicked Yu Chu out of his army a long time ago!
Qin Xuan's cold gaze made Yu Chu feel very hurt, he had liked Qin Xuan for many years, but Qin Xuan had always had only brotherhood with him.
No, now there is no brotherhood, it's all to blame for that Song Xiaokai! Yu Chu hated in his heart, and couldn't help gritting his teeth and said: "I know that no matter how much I do, I can't compare to a Song Xiaokai in your eyes!" Yes, he's capable, so what? Wasn't he also killed by a laser light?! Oh, not even a single corpse left, short-lived ghost! ”
"Bang!" After a loud bang, Qin Xuan's table shattered into powder, and the things around him were shaking wildly.
This is a sign of the □□ of the Force.
Qin Xuan looked at Yu Chu with a calm gaze, that kind of cold and piercing appearance made Yu Chu have feelings other than admiration for this person for the first time, that is, fear.
He intuitively felt that if he said one more thing about Song Xiaokai, maybe Qin Xuan would run over directly and break his neck.
"Yu Chu, you'd better disappear from my sight now." Qin Xuan's tone was very calm, but the sense of danger in his words had not been weakened at all, and it was not something that Yu Chu, who had already been afraid, dared to disobey.
He lowered his head, hid the resentment in his eyes, and forced himself to calm down: "Okay, I'll go first." But as a friend, I still want to remind you that Song Xiaokai is dead, Ah Xuan, you shouldn't trap yourself in the past and can't get out. And that doll pro...... I believe that if you don't want to, no one can force you. ”
After Yu Chu finished speaking, he turned around and left. When he walked to the door of the study, he met the third prince who was watching a good show with his arms crossed, and was choked by the playful gaze of the third prince, and the anger in his heart was even stronger, but he didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the third prince, and after a hasty hello, he left a little wolf.
After Yu Chu left, Qin Xuan's force fluctuations gradually calmed down, and at the same time, the third prince, who had seen enough of the show, finally spoke: "Cousin, you really don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade. ”
The king of the Mande Empire has four concubines, among which Concubine Xuan, who ranks second, and Qin Xuan's mother are twin sisters, therefore, Concubine Xuan's son Xiao Ling and Qin Xuan are cousins, and they grew up together since childhood, and their relationship is very good, and there is not much attention to the etiquette of monarchs and ministers. Of course, this is also related to Xiao Ling's arrogant personality.
Glancing at his cousin who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, Qin Xuan said lightly: "You are more pitiful and cherish the jade, then you can go up." ”
"Oh, don't~" Xiao Ling said with a smile, "I'm most afraid of trouble, this kind of beauty with thorns, only you cousin can stand it." ”
Qin Xuan didn't bother to talk to Xiao Ling, and asked directly, "Say, what are you doing here today?" Don't tell me, you made Concubine Xuan angry again, and came to me for refuge. ”
"Where, where and where, I also have times when I don't make my mother angry~" Xiao Ling said cheekily, "I heard that cousin, you plan to meet your marriage partner?" ”
Qin Xuan raised his eyebrows, feeling that this unreliable cousin had something to say.
Sure enough, in the next second, Xiao Ling threw out the purpose of his trip: "I checked the information of the mine owner's son and found that his second son is very beautiful~ but a C-level mermaid." I guess cousin, you don't plan to ask for a C-class mermaid, do you? Let me go, okay? By the way, take me with you this time~"
Xiao Ling winked at Qin Xuan flatteringly, obviously, he didn't know that Song Xiaokai had been disfigured, and he didn't know that the "Song Xiaokai" that Qin Xuan was thinking about would wear into the shell of that C-class mermaid-
Since the purpose was to withdraw from the marriage, Qin Xuan didn't mind bringing another cousin with the idea of "hunting beauty", Xiao Ling.
On the day Qin Xuan set off for the location of the mine, Song Xiaokai was ordered by Song's father to stay in his room and was not allowed to go out.
Song's father said that in order to prevent the hideous scar on Song Xiaokai's face from colliding with the distinguished guest.
After knowing this, Song Xiaokai's two mermaid brothers seized the opportunity to sneer at Song Xiaokai, and their words were still those clichés that had not changed for thousands of years, making Song Xiaokai tired for them.
Dear, can you change a line? Song Xiaokai silently rolled his eyes in his heart.
As the saying goes, the clay man also has a bit of temperament, not to mention that Song Xiaokai has never belonged to the category of "clay man", and he is almost the same as "the tip of the heart and eye race". Therefore, in view of the fact that there are too many times to find fault, Song Xiaokai plans to return them a "big gift" today, the kind that does not need to be returned.
Hopefully, their hearts are good enough not to be overly surprised.
Song Xiaogangster cocked his fishtail, touched his chin with a wicked smile and thought-
Qin Xuan's private spaceship slowly docked at the port of the mine, and this area belonged to the Song family, so except for the Song father and his family who came to greet him, and the servants who lined up to welcome him, there were no idle people waiting for him.
When the cabin door slowly opened, Song Zhuohao, Song Xiaokai's A-class mermaid brother, straightened his waist nervously, and put on a noble and elegant appearance - for this day, he made a lot of preparations, including aristocratic etiquette and aristocratic clothing, and strived to do everything perfectly, leaving a good impression on Qin Xuan.
Ever since the day he knew he was an A-class mermaid, he had been determined to enter high society. He felt that only those who married the highest echelons of the empire were worthy of his status as an A-level mermaid.
He vaguely hooked the corners of his lips, and thought to himself, the position of the commander's wife must be his own!
Beside him, Song Zhuoyan, the younger brother of the B-class mermaid, glanced at him obscurely, hiding the jealousy in his heart.
He knew that in this marriage, his brother, who was an A-class mermaid, had the greatest hope, but he was unwilling. What's more, as the first commander of the empire, Qin Xuan wanted what kind of mermaid he wouldn't get? Maybe a mere A-level hasn't been taken into his eyes yet. Song Zhuoyan thought like this, and secretly gave himself a reassurance.
――I'm not completely hopeless, am I?
The two brothers live in harmony on the surface, but behind the scenes, they secretly compete with each other, and neither of them obeys the other.
When the cabin door was completely opened, the people inside also stepped out.
It's closer...... It's closer...... Qin Xuan's upright figure fell into everyone's sight, the deep and handsome facial features like a knife and their visual impact, coupled with the cold expression between the eyebrows, and the killing momentum brought from the battlefield, made people feel a compelling sense of oppression, and they didn't even dare to directly look at his dark black eyes.
Father Song's fat trembled slightly, and he hurriedly greeted him, bowed his head and said, "Welcome Lord Commander to our small mine...... Those two are my dogs......"
"This is His Royal Highness the Third Prince." Qin Xuan introduced the golden-haired man beside him.
"Three...... Three Highnesses...... Welcome to welcome ......" Father Song became even more nervous, and silently felt ashamed that he didn't know Taishan because he had eyes. Immediately, he thought that if he could marry one son to the Third Highness and one son to marry the Commander-in-Chief, his future path would be broad.
Hearing Qin Xuan's introduction to Xiao Ling, Song Xiaokai's two mermaid brothers also had their eyes lit up, and they thought of going together with Song's father. Song Zhuohao suppressed his nervousness, and couldn't wait to take a few steps forward, just about to show his most elegant and generous side to His Royal Highness and Commander Qin Xuan, but a string in his head suddenly collapsed, and his hands and feet danced uncontrollably.
"You are my little apple, I can't love you too much, my little red face warms my heart and lights up the fire of my life......"
Everyone: "......"
Father Song stammered instantly, glared at him and said, "Dog...... Dog he ...... He ......, "What the hell is going on with TMD?!] ←This is a true portrayal of Song's father's heart]
"Poof...... Hahaha......" The third prince couldn't help laughing, and Qin Xuan also hooked the corners of his lips almost imperceptibly, but his eyes looked thoughtfully in the direction of the attic.
Song Xiaokai, who didn't know that he had attracted the attention of his lifelong "rival", also laughed and fell on the bed, since his mental power reached the 3s level, he could interfere with the other party's brain waves within a certain range, thereby affecting the other party's behavior. Of course, the premise is that the other party's mental power is not high.
Although Song Zhuohao is an A-level mermaid, he has a very high self-esteem, and he has never paid attention to the cultivation of spiritual power, so there is no pressure on Song Xiaokai to control his behavior.
Song Xiaokai stopped with a smile, because the distance was too far, and it was still a little difficult to control it. It's better to wait for them to return to the house and "fight again".
He wiped away the tears of laughter from the corners of his eyes, licked the corners of his mouth and thought, how else can he play?
