The big round eyes, the pink on the little apple face that had just woken up, and the petal-like little mouth with a round, silkworm-like finger in it.

A little girl who has turned three years old does not look much older than a two-year-old child.

The round little body, the little feet with soft boots kicked in the air, the big eyes stared at Lin An with watery eyes, not afraid of life at all, his eyes were full of curiosity, and he was eager to pounce.

It was the maid who held her in her arms who stopped her.

The young maid's stiff expression was full of unconcealable vigilance, as if Lin An was an old witch wearing a beautiful skin who would swallow a child, and she wanted to keep a safe distance from her.

As for the three steps next to the two, the emperor's new close attendant maintained a respectful social smile.

As if he couldn't see the aura of discord between the two parties, he announced the emperor's will word for word, and then looked at his eyes and eyes, as if he could last the smirk on his face for a long time.

Lin An's full chest rose and fell twice.

"What is ...... Leave it to me for the time being? ”

"That is, from today onwards, the royal family will hand over the custody of His Royal Highness Michelle to you."

Lin Ankong couldn't stop slapping the table.

"What the hell does the emperor want to do!"

The little girl hiccuped.

Lin An looked at her.

Michelle belched aggrievedly and aggrievedly, and the maid hurriedly patted her on the back, coaxing her carefully, and at the same time looked at Lin An with a condemning gaze.

Damn it!

Lin An had a headache.

What a terrible demon a child before the age of twelve is, no one knows better than Lin An.

The emperor really had a good idea.

Throw the right of disposal to her, and recognize that she can't tear her face now, and can't take Michelle?!

Lin An glanced at the little "hostage" who was sent.

The little girl had curly hair, loose and soft, one hand around the maid's neck, her chin resting on the maid's shoulder, and she looked at her with a blank eye, and her little eyes were eager and unapproachable, like an abandoned puppy.

Lin An withdrew his gaze and cursed in his heart.

When he didn't see him, the little thing was nothing more than Odin's daughter, Saxon's only sister now.

Her identity is just a symbol, a bargaining chip in Lin An's mind to balance the scales, and according to Lin An's needs, she may add or subtract from the scale.

As for how her fate will change because of Lin An's thoughts, it is not within Lin An's concern.

The victims of the Principality of Magic have not been properly resettled!

A royal bloodline, the only eldest princess in the future, no matter how miserable she is, can she be miserable enough to starve those who don't even have a place to live after death?

But that's what people look like.

Obviously, they are all the same, but seeing them with your own eyes and only hearing about them are two completely different impressions, as if a symbol suddenly materialized and became a living, flesh-and-blood real person.

After all, human beings are sentient creatures.

Even though the negative impression of the Odin couple has been ingrained in Lin An'an, how awkward Lin An is to transfer this malice to the little thing in front of him who has just turned three years old and is full of innocence and purity.

However, this little girl is also the only one who can restrain the future emperor.

Lin An's gaze, which had just softened, turned cold in an instant.

……

“…… What the! She's going to take Michelle as a disciple?! ”

Saxon's expression cracked, and he didn't think about it, so he immediately vetoed, "No! ”

"Why not?"

The Emperor sat in a large circle chair, crossed his fingers to form a bridge, and calmly questioned the tall and handsome young man in front of him, who had inherited his three-part physiognomy.

He was not angry with the Saxon attitude.

In this conversation, they are the patriarchs and heads of the family, not grandchildren.

As the head of the family, Michelle's de facto guardian, the Saxons certainly have the right to intervene in Michelle's custody transfer.

This is the inviolable right of every noble child who is bound to become the head of the family and assume the responsibilities of the family, and even the emperor must respect it.

Just as the whereabouts of the children of the nobility are at least routinely inquired by the emperor before deciding, the social system under the monarch's vassal system forms a class pyramid with this system, and the emperor is equivalent to the leader of all nobles, the patriarch -

Failing to respect the authority of the head of the family is tantamount to undermining the foundation of the king's rule.

"Michelle is so young, just three years old, how can she leave her mother!"

There are so many excuses that the Saxons don't need to look for at all, they can think of one at random.

Hearing Sun Tzu mention the eldest princess, the emperor was calm, as if the person who gritted his teeth at the eldest princess yesterday and wished that the other party would disappear immediately was not him at all.

Saxon was completely in the dark about the cause and effect of the incident, and naturally he could not find more from the details of the emperor's expression, and his heart was already filled with the shock of this sudden news.

"When your father was three years old, he had already increased his sword swinging practice to three hundred on his own."

"Even you, when you were three years old, no longer threw yourself into your grandmother's arms with tears in your eyes for the rigorous training of your day."

The emperor calmly stated a fact:

"Born into a royal family, you should know better than anyone that this is not a reason for us to indulge in leisure and work hard, and lie on the palace where our ancestors laid the foundation to enjoy the shade."

Saxon was also raised as an heir to the throne, and of course he understood the hardships and costs inside.

“…… However, Michelle is a girl, and she was born prematurely and her body is weak, how can she endure hardship. ”

"It was because of her frail health that I thought of handing her over to Master Lin."

"Your mother insisted on refusing to allow Master Lin to treat her, do you intend to continue this stupid behavior, preferring that Michelle may die young rather than give her a chance to have a healthy body and grow up like a normal child?"

As the sun set, orange-red light shone in through the high window, slanting in from behind the emperor, casting a halo of light, making the emperor's face slightly dim and his expression hazy.

"If Michelle can regain her health, even if she is a girl, who says she can't have a brilliant life?"

"Especially, I've found the best teacher for her as a lighthouse."

Saxon's heart shook slightly, but only for a moment.

The Emperor's decision was too sudden, and he had not been consulted beforehand, and with his sense of smell for many years of Saxon court life, he was sure that there must be something inside.

The inside story can be investigated later, but he can't be fooled lightly, so he retreats, so that Michelle's fate is decided so casually.

She will be the only noble eldest princess of the Empire -

No matter how rare the treatment is, she is always in demand;

Even if there is no Ann. With such an amazing achievement, Michelle can also leave a mark in history that cannot be ignored.

"The premise of this qiē you envision is that Michelle can be truly regarded by her as a disciple."

"But you and I both know what kind of old enmity lies between Michelle and her, do you think she will pass on the mantle to Michelle?"

"Even though you have confessed her identity, she probably doesn't consider us to be of the same kind."

"At the end of the day, Michelle's role as a titular disciple is nothing more than a bond to maintain a balanced and gentle relationship."

Saxon's tone was calm, and the words stopped for a moment when the emperor's expression froze, and he took a step back, knelt down on one knee, and bowed his head high:

"I don't know what's going on."

"But, grandfather, Michelle will be the most honorable woman in the Empire, and her fate, I hope will be chosen by her when she grows up."

"The price to be paid for this, as an elder brother, I am willing to bear it all."

She is a poor child, who has never seen her father since she was born, and it is likely that her mother will leave her soon, and as her only brother, she may grow up safe, happy, and free.

Saxon remained on one knee, frozen in place, and the emperor did not call him to his feet for a long time.

He felt the gaze coming from above his head, silent, majestic, dignified, long-looking.

It's a long time, and it seems to be short.

The Emperor let out a long sigh.

"Saxon."

"You know that even if I go against your wishes now, when you ascend the throne, I will take Michelle back."

"You are kneeling here now, not pleading with me, but expressing your attitude, with no fear."

"You're right, it's you, not me, who will decide Michelle's future."

Saxon spine microtremors.

Every word of the emperor was like a nail, wedged into his heart, making him tremble, and like a hammer, hammer after hammer, bending his back.

He understood that the emperor had made up his mind.

"--Grandfather......

"--Grandfather......

He knelt in front of the Emperor's knee and hugged the Emperor's right foot.

"Please! Please! ……”

"Please, be merciful! ……”

Saxon pressed his forehead to the emperor's feet, choked in his throat, and prayed tremblingly—

This is his grandfather.

The source of the blood in his body.

It was this old man, who insisted on going his own way, to lift him up, who had lost his father, to his shoulders, and to push him to that throne.

He was kind and persuasive, taught by word and deed, and passed on the emperor's skills and heavy responsibilities to his shoulders.

He is the most majestic mountain, the most majestic figure, which will always make him chase, yearn for, worship, place infinite longing, endless curtain.

Saxon's forehead smacked the ground again and again, and the felt carpet in front of him was dark.

How dare he,

How could he,

- Disobey him!

The emperor closed his eyes and could not bear to look at it.

"Saxon."

"My child."

"No one knows better than you the catastrophe that the Terrans are facing now."

"If disaster strikes, even if it is our empire, Merlin's great and noble bloodline, I am not sure of preserving."

The thin hand gently rubbed the top of Saxon's head, just like Saxon kneeling on the emperor's knees when he was a child, pity, pampering, pity, and the will in his sight was as immovable as a mountain.

"I'm Michelle's grandfather too."

"Michelle is not necessarily a bad thing to have by her side."

"Think about it."

"Think about it again......"
