Xius realized this, it seems that he is still thinking too simply, and he actually thinks that the academy charges 1,500 gold coins a year for tuition, and it is natural to give students a good environment. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info It turns out that I can live in such a good room, but I am still stained with my father's light.

"Of course, if I can meet him, I will definitely treat this adult like an elder in the family. However, I'm afraid you're too worried, if you don't summon me in person, the chances of seeing him are slim. You should know that the academy is divided according to the location of the training ground. If nothing else, I've spent most of my time in the Swordsman Department for the past few years. It's hard to see the big people working in the center of the academy. Hughes shook his head, and if it was possible, he would certainly be willing to get in touch with a vice president. But because of the huge disparity in status between them, even with Gael's connections, Theseus was not qualified to ask to see a vice president. Unless called.

Nalco fell silent. He knew in his heart that Hughes's conclusions were correct, but his reasons were wrong.

It was not unqualified for him to meet with an Vice-Dean, he was the heir to the Viscount, and he actually enjoyed the status of a Viscount in some social aspects, so it was not impossible to ask for a Vice-Dean with the status of an Earl.

The trouble is the problem of each other's identities and status.

More than ten years ago, Gale had not inherited the title, and Master Lucas was only a tutor of the academy, and there was not much difference in status between the two, and the most important relationship between them was that of close teachers and students. But today, more than ten years later, Gale is already a general with a heavy army, a member of the command department, and Lucas has risen from a mentor to the high position of vice president, and has the status of an earl.

The drastic changes in status will inevitably change the mentality and behavior habits of the parties, and will definitely affect the original relationship between the two people.

Taking a step back, even if the feelings between the two parties remain the same, special attention should be paid to political influence in the way of interaction.

This is because if the two kingdoms are particularly close, it will have an unforeseen impact on the political power structure of the entire country. In particular, Gael's identity, a military officer with a strong army, and his political leanings had a great influence on the political atmosphere of the royal capital. And if he shows too close a relationship with the ministers of the royal capital, he will obviously be seen as a political leaning.

Therefore, in recent years, when Gale came to the royal capital in person, he could only pay a courtesy visit to this Lord Lucas, the former mentor. In the past, Gail could stay overnight when he went to Lucas's house.

Nalco thought for a while before expressing his opinion: "It's not impossible at all, young master, Lord Dean is a very affectionate old man, and he misses the old very much, so if you visit him as the son of Lord Gale, as long as it is not very frequent, there should be no problem." Because you're only fourteen years old, people won't think much of it, even if they notice it. But within the academy, I think you should not casually ask to meet this lord, especially since your father is relatively famous in the academy, and if someone notices it, it will not be good for you and the dean's reputation. ”

Hughes had a vague grasp of something from Nalko's cautious attitude, and he was hesitant to see the Lord in the short term. However, after only thinking for a moment, Theseus laughed again.

"There's something wrong with your words, Nalco, how can I meet him if I can't meet him in school? You know, the academy won't let me out for three years, unless I can get out of the wall on my own. Do you think it's possible that I've successfully circumvented the wall? We talked about an impossible problem for a long time, and it was really interesting. Hughes said.

This smile suddenly made the serious atmosphere that had just condensed disappear in a blink of an eye.

Nalco also smiled, and Hughes's words did make sense. Unless Xiusi immediately cultivated to level 14 and was able to climb over the wall under the guards' obstruction, he really wouldn't have a chance to meet that adult. And cultivating from level 5 to level 14 in three years, it is completely impossible, unless he is given strength by His Majesty the God of War.

That's even more impossible! Nalco couldn't help but wonder when he thought about it.

"I'm confused, young master. In this way, there are still three days left for the enrollment of the Royal Family Warrior Academy today, and you can still enter and exit freely during these three days. Tomorrow, then, I'll visit you at Lord Lucas's mansion. As for the future affairs within the academy, it will be up to you to deal with them, and we will not be able to help. I will stay here for three months, and when Ram is familiar with all the things in the royal capital, I will go back. The rest will be handled directly by Ram for you. Presumably, though, Mrs. Cynthia won't give him much of a chance. Hehe~"

Even if we can't meet often, it is necessary to let Lord Lucas see Hughes with his own eyes. Xius will live in the academy for three full years, and if he can be secretly taken care of by the vice dean, it will undoubtedly be extremely beneficial to his growth. This was both Viscount Gael's confession and Nalco's own thoughts.

I also wanted to know what kind of mentor my father was. I hope he likes me, hehe. Hughes agreed very simply.

"By the way, why haven't you seen Ram?" asked Hughes curiously.

"Some of our family's business in Wangdu needs him to take over, and I asked him to familiarize himself with the situation in Wangdu. If you can't know the environment of the royal capital well, it is difficult to take care of the family's affairs in the royal capital. Nalco explained cryptically.

Hughes immediately understood Ram's whereabouts.

In fact, there are indeed a few so-called businesses in the family, but each business has a special person in charge, and what Ram wants to know is actually related to the maintenance and promotion of some secret relationships with the family in the royal capital, as well as some methods of obtaining intelligence information.

These things, although they do not see the light, are very important, not just for Theseus, but for the whole family.

Of course, the only information that Ram can touch now is some of the most rudimentary information, and most of it will be related to Xiuth himself, and only the family members in charge of the intelligence will pass it on to him. To reach the level of a henchman like Nalko, Ram will need to go through decades of cultivation and many tests.

Nalco had just finished speaking, when there was a knock on the door.

"Madame must have told me to eat. Hughes guessed as he got up from the couch, picked up his coat, and prepared to go. Nalco opened the door for him first.

Sure enough, outside stood Lady Cynthia's maid, whose name Theseus remembered as Yana.

"Did Madame tell me to eat, Yana?" said Theseus's smile was kind.

"Yes, Master Hughes, lunch is ready, Madame is waiting for you. Yana spoke in a small voice, very respectful. In this inn, she probably saw the most about Theseus and Madame, and had even heard some special titles. That kind of pampering, even if she has followed her wife for so long, she has never seen her pay to the children of any family. The special position of Hughes in Madame's heart is evident from this.

Therefore, Yana was not speaking quietly, but she just thought that her knock on the door had disturbed the conversation between Xius and Nalco, and her heart was uneasy, so her voice involuntarily lowered. However, Theseus's response apparently did not show any displeasure, and he was very kind to himself. This immediately eased her little nervousness, and gave Hughes a sweet smile.

"Let's go, I happen to be hungry too. Nalco, don't go out in the afternoon, come with me to take your luggage to the dormitory. If Ram has time, let Ram come, and you go about your business. Hughes instructed Nalco as he walked out. The language seems ordinary, but the other meanings in the language are actually known only to him and the guards.

Nalco nodded his head in understanding, and Theseus smiled and strode away.

"I've kept you waiting, Mother. When Hughes walked into the dining room, Mrs. Cynthia was already sitting and waiting, the dishes and knives and forks on the table were neatly arranged, and the food was served, and the heat was steaming, and the wonderful smell of food was fully diffused throughout the space.

"Did the morning registration go well?" said Lady Cynthia with a soft smile on her face, and her loving eyes fell on him from the time he entered the door, and he refused to leave until he sat down.

"It went smoothly and the dormitory was in good condition. I also met a handsome guy who was about to graduate, and it was even more coincidental that he was going to my father's hand for an internship, and we talked for a lot of time. Hughes spread the napkin on his lap and smiled and told his wife what he had seen and heard today.

"Really, that's a coincidence, what is that kid's name, he's very bold. The front line in Shining City has not been very popular with the students in the academy in recent years. Mrs. Cynthia stopped cutting the steak and looked up at Theseus, her brow slightly furrowed, very surprised.

Hearing this, Xiusi also stopped his movements, he was also surprised, but this was born because of the surprise of his wife, "How come? Although we are not as prosperous as the royal capital, it is still no problem to maintain the life of a nobleman." Besides, isn't that the best place to get military merit?"

Lady Cynthia frowned and explained to Theseus, "In the last three or five years, it has become less and less peaceful there. According to your father's letter, as well as rumors among the nobles of the royal capital, the movements of the orcs are getting bigger and bigger, and the number of attacks on the front line is increasing, more and more frequent, and the number of troops used is also increasing, which makes many people uneasy. Some sages speculate that it is probably because the vitality of the orcs has recovered after a thousand years of recuperation, and the population pressure in the country is too great, so the number of small fights on the border has increased. ”

Xius was stunned, and although Madame's words were not explicitly stated, he still understood.

"Doesn't that mean that Shining City is not safe, and even my father is not safe?" asked Theseus hurriedly.

Lady Cynthia smiled, leaned over and touched Theseus' hair, and gently pressed him back into his seat, "Don't worry, this kind of petty fight, it's just within the defense of Gangaru Fort that a high-ranking officer like your father, and the First Swordsman Regiment under his command, will not be dispatched for such trivial matters." Danger is far from your father. It's just that the idea of the kid you mentioned is very incomprehensible, and the children of the nobility rarely have such a desperate guy. ”

Xius breathed a sigh of relief, if his father was fighting on the front line, and his son was studying and living peacefully in the comfortable royal capital, he would definitely not be at ease and could not accept it.

"The man's name is Louis Ann, and I don't know what family he belongs to. Hehe, I'm not familiar with the aristocratic circle of the royal capital at all. However, his chestnut hair is very conspicuous and unforgettable. He is in charge of the dormitory assignment of the swordsman department today, and judging by the performance of others, he seems to be a student of relatively high status. Hughes told him everything he knew about Louis Ann, and he wanted to know from his wife what kind of background the other party was.

"It turned out to be his ......," Lady Cynthia slowly propped herself up, raised her head, and suddenly realized, "Then it is not surprising that the second son of an earl's family chose such a dangerous internship location, I am afraid that it is related to the battle for their family's inheritance." His biological mother, Madame Mary, the count's stepwife, was very scheming, and it seems that this was a foreshadowing of the inheritance a few years later. ”

Hearing this, Hughes stuffed a steak into his mouth, biting hatefully, very hard, "I hate the guy who fights for the family!" Hughes muttered.

"What did you say?" asked Lady Cynthia, not hearing clearly.

"Uh...... It's nothing, I just don't like the family fighting around, it's cold-blooded. Hughes shrugged, his face full of disdain.

Lady Cynthia smiled bitterly: "In a noble family, this is normal, Gale only has you as a child, this is your luck." However, don't make similar remarks in public in the future, it's not good for you. You must know that there are many nobles who have successfully fought for the right of inheritance through unscrupulous means. They won't like to hear that. Got it?"

"I remember, Mother. Hughes buried his head in eating, and at this moment, his mind was full of thoughts of his friend Fagaret and indignation at the unfair treatment he had suffered. However, Hughes also knew that this kind of thing was not something that a child like him could solve. Even His Majesty the King cannot meddle in the domestic affairs of other families.

The two of them did not speak again for the rest of the day, and Lady Cynthia tried to speak several times, but at the sight of Hugh's angry expression, she was both happy and uncomfortable, and this hesitation bothered her, and she could not say another word until the end of the meal.

After returning to his room, the sleepiness caused by a full meal hit Xius's brain, and the spirit of the morning had been excited, and all the tiredness was crowded together at this time, and suddenly Xius couldn't even open his eyelids. He simply took off his coat and fell asleep on the large fluffy bed.

Lady Cynthia wanted to have a long conversation with the past and Theseus, and to tell the child all the necessary knowledge about the nobility of the royal capital, so that he would not be unaware and provoke others. However, when she saw that the child was so sleepy that she didn't even know that she had entered the door, she had to open the quilt, lightly cover Hughes's body, and then retreat silently. When she went out, she also instructed the maids who followed her to take good care of the young master and not let others disturb him easily.

After sleeping for more than two hours, Xius got up from the bed sleepily, and as soon as he got up, he felt something slip off, and quickly reached out to grab it, but found that it was a soft quilt. A warm feeling swelled up in Hughes's heart, and he remembered very clearly that the quilt had not been opened at all when he slept before, but now it was covered with him. So, who is quietly taking care of him, just think about it and make it clear.
