"You go out first, let me be quiet."
The emperor pressed his temples and closed his eyes to command.
Lin An and others are good and flowing.
After they left the dormitory, the guards closed the door for the emperor.
The emperor has alchemy items on his body that monitor his physical condition at all times, and there is no danger of accidents when he is alone for a short time.
There is a larger corridor outside the emperor's dormitory, connecting multiple corridors and four side halls, and the Saxon, dressed in dark suede aristocratic clothes, is standing at the door of a side hall in the corridor, the door of the side hall behind him is half hidden, and there are shadows shaking on the ground, and the voice of words is faintly heard.
Lin An looked at it from a distance, and for a moment, he almost felt that it was Odin who was standing there, and the complicated color in his eyes flashed.
Master Don Quixote walked over, patted Saxon on the shoulder, and said something to him, and then Saxon looked at Lin An.
Because of the emperor, Lin An and Saxon are also accustomed to each other's appearances in their sight, but they still have no interaction in private.
Lin An evoked a social smile, nodded to it, and was about to pass by as he had done in the past few days, when his right elbow was suddenly grabbed.
"Please wait a minute."
Lin An stopped and turned around, calmly glanced at the big male hand with white gloves on his arm, and said lightly:
"If I want to think that this hand is now useless - I assume that you haven't forgotten that I'm a mage?"
"I haven't forgotten."
Saxon didn't withdraw his hand, but his voice was low, as if he didn't want to attract the attention of the people in the hall behind him, "I want to talk to you privately." ”
"Then I suggest that you should remove your magic advisor for the consequences of touching a full-fledged mage without adequately warning you - I don't think we have anything to talk about."
At this time, Lin An didn't want to have any private conversation with Saxons at all, lest the emperor think that she had done something misleading or provoking Saxon.
The light blue electric sparks flashed, and Lin An used a trick to let His Royal Highness the future Emperor Sun feel the paralyzing pleasure of the electric current.
The hand that grabbed Lin An's arm immediately retracted.
Saxon's expression was slightly gloomy.
"Are you avoiding me?"
He simply changed his title.
Probably anxious to facilitate this private conversation, he paused, "Then we have an exchange, you will be interested in my news." ”
"Oh?"
Lin An glanced at him thoughtfully.
Of course, it was easy for her to distinguish the truth of the other party's language, and Saxon was quite sure when he said the last sentence, so Lin An changed his mind and smiled without smiling:
"Well, since you insist."
Avoiding the eyeline, they walked through several corridors to a remote walkway a little further away from the Emperor's bedchamber.
Saxon shifted the angle of a twelve-inch portrait hanging on the wall, and near the corner of the wall, a rectangular entrance appeared in front of Lin An.
"A more intimate meeting room, where the content of the conversation is not so easy to leak." Saxon explained succinctly, and raised his hand sideways.
If outsiders can hear his words, they will understand how "there are no secrets in the court" came about.
Lin An smiled and walked in, followed by Saxon.
The door to the chamber was closed again.
"Your exchange chips."
Letting go of his perception and looking around, Lin An's eyes flashed with a different color, and he no longer maintained that kind of hypocritical social politeness.
Saxon didn't expect Lin An to be so straightforward, so he glanced at Lin An up and down strangely, and did not sell it, and replied directly:
"My aunt's second husband, Viscount Ludwig, housed several mistresses in a private house he had privately purchased."
Luther?
Lin An's heart moved, but there was no difference on his face, "That's it?" What does this have to do with me? ”
"Of course it's more than that." Saxon said, "According to my people's investigation, those mistresses have a common feature in appearance, that is, black ......."
"If all you're going to say is something that boring, then I'd better spend more time on the things you really need to focus on."
Lin An interrupted him, lowered his face, and did not give Saxon a chance to insult himself to his face.
"It looks like you've guessed, but I'll say you've not guessed all of it."
Saxon showed that kind of smile again:
"As for what's going on, I'd better go and see for yourself - to be honest, from my standpoint, if it weren't for your request this time, I would never have told you about it."
Lin An frowned slightly.
Saxon was so vague and so determined, that she had a foreboding feeling now.
However, there was no hint of inner thoughts in her demeanor.
"Really? Hopefully, this is as valuable as you claim. ”
She said lightly, calmly changing her sitting position, naturally revealing an elegant beauty:
"There's not much time left, and I don't think you want people to know that we're talking in private, so let's get straight to your point."
"Okay."
The young man who resembled Odin looked away, as if he was gathering words.
"You might think it's a negotiation, but it's not."
Saxon's gaze moved back, looking directly at Lin An, behind his calm attitude, there seemed to be some complex emotional fluctuations:
"I'm looking for you just to have an open and honest conversation about some of the issues that hang between us."
Lin An was surprised.
She looked at the pair of young and complicated blue eyes on the other side, and connected with Saxon's previous contradictory attitude words, and vaguely understood his purpose in her heart.
Yes, His Royal Highness did not know that on the night he was forced to take the vow, she was also in another secret room to watch the whole process.
This may well be another test of the emperor for the Saxons.
The Saxons came to her after a few days, which is completely understandable.
To make such a big change psychologically, he will inevitably need some adjustment time.
Judging from the knot between them, Saxon was able to take the initiative to take this step, which made Lin An look at him with admiration.
Despite all the obstacles, it seems that the emperor's vision was not wrong to abandon Byron in favor of Saxon.
At least in terms of determination and action, Saxon's move can be called a strong man's broken wrist, and he has already obtained a bit of the emperor's thick black essence.
"The genetics of the bloodline are really horrible."
Lin An suddenly said, regardless of whether the Saxon understood it or not:
"Before that, I always thought you were a lot like your father, but now I feel that you are more like your grandfather."
Saxon's eyes were filled with surprise.
He didn't expect that as soon as he spoke, Lin An seemed to have a full understanding of his intentions.
This kind of sensitivity made him feel a kind of insecurity that had been stripped naked, and he was faintly ashamed and angry, as if he felt that the contradictions and shame hidden in his heart had been clearly seen by Lin An, as if he was being illuminated by a spotlight.
This was not the original purpose of the Saxons.
Even if he took the initiative to reconcile, he never thought of completely dissecting the true attitude in his heart to Lin An.
Saxon's face was ugly, and he began to wonder if the conversation was a mistake.
He felt that the rhythm was out of his control, and the conversation seemed difficult to continue.
……
"I'm still too young to be led by the nose."
In the emperor's bedroom, a silver mirror reflected the conversation between Lin An and the Saxons in the reception room, and the emperor calmly commented.
"Your Highness is still young after all." Master Antonio returned to the dormitory at some point.
"Ann. Lynn was only his age. ”
"But there is only one Lady of the Purple Rose in this world," says the portrait, "and she is fortunate to have the same blood as you, and does not look like she is interested in imperial power." ”
"Yes, that's the only place that's lucky."
The Emperor sighed.
"She may not be willing to assist the Saxons, but at least, at the most critical time, she has not forgotten her own blood."
"Of course, no matter how lush and verdant the tree is, it will never forget its roots." The portrait says.
If Lin An was here, he might laugh out loud:
The emperor attributed her motive for coming to report to the bloodline, which was too wishful thinking.
In the mirror, Lin An and Saxon had a few more tentative encounters.
“…… She looked like she was aware of the problem in that room. The emperor did not miss Lin An's thoughtfulness when he entered the door.
"After all, His Highness is improvised, and he is not well prepared."
"Yes, he can be sharp enough to perceive his own crisis from his uncle's attitude, and in such a short period of time, he has come up with this way to express his stance against me in order to fight, and this decision is already excellent."
The emperor objectively evaluated:
"It's a pity that if he could do better, don't let Ann. Lynn sensed his intentions, and the conversation would have worked better, killing two birds with one stone. ”
"But he didn't do that."
"It shows that he hasn't made up his mind before."
"That's what worries me the most."
"Chaotang and Ann. Lynn, one represents secular domination, the other represents forces outside the world, and in the difficult situation in the future, at most one can go wrong. ”
"The current situation is already very unfavorable to Saxon, and if he doesn't know how to fight anymore, I can only give up on him."
……
“…… If you're feeling ashamed, don't be. ”
Lin An was stunned:
"Even in front of your grandfather, I have not hidden my hatred for your father, or even for your grandfather, so you don't need to hide your opinion of me."
Without waiting for the Saxons to speak, she continued:
"We need to cooperate, it's an objective need - fortunately, mages are not a group that is swayed by feelings, and the profession of emperor happens to be the same. So—"
She leaned forward, invisibly enhancing the oppression:
"My request to you is just to be a good emperor."
"I hope you don't let me down."
"Also, next time I look for a secret room for the talks, don't look so close - otherwise it will be difficult for me to convince myself that the place so close to the emperor's chamber is not under his control."
After speaking, Lin An stood up elegantly, put his hands together, and nodded to the Saxon who was stunned there.
"Farewell."
He left without looking back.
