"No, I'm pretty much blown by the wind, it's time to go back to sleep." Shen Xing River Road.

"You." Govis glanced at him with a smile, "Such a big man still acts like a child, and he doesn't think about the consequences at all." With that, the three of them began to walk towards the palace, and one followed them in silence, like a dutiful protector.

The two people in front were still talking intimately, and no one noticed the gaze of the person behind them, and the person just quietly stared at the side face of the person in front of him, and then lowered his head, with a touch of gloom and sadness in his eyes.

Before falling asleep, Shen Xinghe lay on the bed and thought of the somewhat nonsensical experience before, and couldn't help but think that he hadn't noticed the other person at all, and the-for-tat confrontation with him in the morning was like a quarrel between children at this time, so stupid that he only left a vague shadow when he recalled it, and the reason for this change was also clearly known to Shen Xinghe.

Because of the warmth that can encompass the whole body, I don't have to think about the bone-chilling cold anymore. In the same way, if there is a person who is truly good to him, why should he feel sad for the person who troubles him?

What's more, a person like the second brother, no matter how much praise he has, he can't compare to him in the eyes of others, and he should be.

It's not about belittling yourself, it's about stating the facts......

Shen Xinghe smiled, sighed again, closed his eyes and gradually fell asleep.

The next day, Shen Xinghe got up at the usual time, and when he came to the restaurant, he saw that there was a person sitting inside, yes...... Hening Prefecture.

It's really strange, although this person occasionally comes a little earlier than himself, but why didn't Ann, who must have come before him, not appear today? The man raised his head when he heard the sound of someone entering the door, his expression was very light, no joy or sorrow, but Shen Xinghe clearly felt that his heart trembled violently when he met his gaze, and his footsteps stopped at the same time.

In such a situation, there are only two people here, myself and him, which is very embarrassing.

At this time, He Ningzhou looked away, did not say a word of greeting, nor did he show disgust, just like treating a stranger who did not know him, at such a time, he did not even pay attention to the courtesy that should be expected of His Highness as a courtier. Also, how did these red tape get into his eyes, not to mention, his status is even on par with himself.

Shen Xinghe didn't speak, and calmly walked to his seat and sat down, but the person opened his mouth at this time, and the object of his speech was not Shen Xinghe, but asked the maid to bring breakfast for two.

Now Shen Xinghe is even more puzzled, usually breakfast at least has to be eaten with An, why not today?

When Jialia and Lena served breakfast, Shen Xinghe asked, "Won't Ann come to have breakfast together today?" ”

"Yes," said Galia, "Lord Anlais said that she would be up late today, and said," she glanced at He Ningzhou and smiled, "I want Your Highness and Lord He Ningzhou to have a good time." ”

Shen Xinghe tugged at the corners of his lips, not knowing what to say, but He Ningzhou started without any reaction, Shen Xinghe really didn't understand what that An was thinking, and he wanted to eat happily with that person......

Breakfast was carried out quietly, but it was different from the past to make people feel warm, in this almost silent ten minutes, Shen Xinghe tried not to care, but he clearly knew that the breakfast that was particularly delicious on weekdays tasted like chewing wax and was boring today.

What is the purpose of such a sharp rise and fall?

Finally got through this meal, when Shen Xinghe put down the tableware, he saw that the person seemed to have been eating for a long time, and the way he sat there added a bit of beauty, so that people could admire his face with a sense of amazement...... Angry.

That's right, it's angry, although his emotions are by no means obvious, Shen Xinghe can sense the coldness in his eyes, his eyebrows are slightly frowned, and his thin lips are lightly pursed, which shows that he is angry for some reason at the moment.

So, who is he angry with?

For no reason, Shen Xinghe's heart was a little painful, which made him want to do something desperately, even if it was just a word, as long as it could relieve that person's emotions, he suddenly felt a sigh that he seemed to have not seen this person's real smile for a long time.

"That," Shen Xinghe really opened his mouth, not even thinking about his behavior, "I'm done, let's go." ”

Hearing his words, He Ningzhou turned his head to look at him, but Shen Xinghe couldn't see through his expression this time, and naturally he didn't know if his mood had eased a little.

Without speaking, He Ningzhou nodded and got up and walked towards the door, and Shen Xinghe had to follow him.

There was nothing to say all the way, and after the two arrived at the training site, He Ningzhou also said something to Shen Xinghe, in Shen Xinghe's opinion, this was just a return gift for talking to him just now. He said, "Alright, let's start Zama." After speaking, he turned around as usual and distanced himself from Shen Xinghe.

Shen Xinghe didn't start moving, he looked at the handsome back of that person, and the feeling in his heart was a lot, pursing his lips, Shen Xinghe took a few steps towards him, his voice was not loud, but he could hear it clearly: "Are you angry with me?" ”

The man's figure shuddered slightly, but there was no other movement or spoke.

Shen Xinghe calmed down and continued: "I know, I lost my temper with you first, and now I apologize to you, will you forgive me?" ”

This time, He Ningzhou finally turned around, with a very faint smile of helplessness on his face, which meant that he did not fully accept Shen Xinghe's apology.

"Let's get started, counting yesterday, it's been a long time coming." After He Ningzhou said this lightly, he didn't look at Shen Xinghe again.

The latter was very disappointed, but he had no choice but to turn around and concentrate on today's practice.

It's true, he didn't forgive himself immediately, but, yes, his behavior was very excessive at the beginning, and if it were him, he wouldn't have let it go so quickly. Thinking about it, I haven't talked to him for more than a day, and only for such a short time I feel that the last time I chatted with him was so far away. I still remember that I used to think that he was very annoying to talk, always making fun of himself, and not looking at his own face, but now, even he has become a luxury to say a word to himself.

Shen Xinghe didn't know that not long after he started practicing, that person turned around and quietly looked at his back.

Are you mad at him? In fact, he was a little surprised when he asked this sentence, he thought that his expression was well controlled, and he could even read that he was angry, why would such a smart person do such a hurtful thing at this time? Whether it's behavior or language, he really didn't think about his thoughts at all.

Therefore, it's not that he doesn't forgive him, but he is a little disappointed, when he misses him and wants to deepen his relationship with him, he unreasonably distances himself, and even deliberately goes against himself.

In fact, it's not that I haven't had trouble with others, but I've never felt like this: I don't want to go through it a second time, because I'm afraid that I won't be able to stand it, thinking of his hostility and his indifference, I will feel a chill rising from the bottom of my heart, the kind of cold that penetrates the whole body, which is unbearable.

What is this feeling, and why does it come about?

The time when Kriya left Phantom Night City was in the morning, and he deliberately set the time at nine o'clock, so Shen Xinghe's martial arts class was canceled, in fact, there were many people who wanted to come, but only Shen Xinghe and He Ningzhou really went to see him off.

As Shen Xinghe said, Kria is a person with a very kingly temperament, because his smile is very bright, cheerful and heroic, and people with such a smile must have an open mind. When he rode away, the warm sunlight reflected on his back, extremely chic and arbitrary, more like a chivalrous man walking the rivers and lakes.

That morning, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and the breeze was blowing, but the clear sky could not drown out the pain of parting. didn't cry and make a fuss, Shen Xinghe just clearly felt two horizontal tears on his face, this was the second time he cried since he came to this world.

"You, are you reluctant to him?" The people around him suddenly said, but Shen Xinghe didn't notice that he didn't just open his mouth, and his voice was full of tenderness.

"Yes," Shen Xinghe still looked at the figure that had blurred to the point of almost disappearing, "Reluctantly." "Kriya is a good brother, and what Shen Xinghe likes most about him is that he can make people never feel lonely, and when you need someone to keep you company, he can appear in front of you without even opening his mouth.

After that, I don't know how many times I will be lonely than before.

Suddenly, Shen Xinghe felt that his hand was wrapped in a warm object, and he couldn't help but raise his head, only to see that the person who was originally a little distance from him didn't know when to urge the horse to come to him and hold one of his hands. Shen Xinghe saw him smiling, his smile was very soft, and there was a little cunning that he hadn't seen for a long time. How could this person have changed so much about himself? Even if he apologized to him before, he still didn't pay much attention to himself in the past two days.

"What's so good about that guy? Like a loach, he sticks to you and won't let go, and now that he's gone, you should be happy. ”

"What nonsense?" Shen Xinghe broke away from his hand dissatisfiedly, and it took a lot of effort not to give him a roll of the eyes, "He is at least better than you, he will never bully me, I will be happier if you leave." ”

He Ningzhou smiled, "So, I used to be very bad to you." Well, I'll try to improve from now on, but don't ask me to pester you like him, I really can't do it. ”

"Who wants you to be entangled," Shen Xinghe's expression changed from disgust to suspicion, "Strange, aren't you ignoring me?" Why did you take the initiative to talk to me? ”

"I don't want to make trouble anymore," He Ningzhou spread his hands briskly, seemingly solemn but said gently: "You, sometimes you really should change it, I still haven't figured out why you have an awkward relationship with me, and why you suddenly reconciled with me, if I have anything to offend you, you can tell me directly, like this, it's not good to lose your temper inexplicably, and say that you don't care about people and ignore people." ”

After he finished speaking, Shen Xinghe scratched his hair in embarrassment. In fact, I am by no means losing my temper for no reason, but I ...... cough, I can't tell why I was so angry when I heard what he said, I wanted him to disappear in front of my eyes from now on, and then I deliberately went against him to vent my dissatisfaction. However, such an untenable reason will not be said.

"Okay. I can promise you that if you have any dissatisfaction in the future, I will tell you directly, if there is a problem that is not easy to say, I will ask others first, even if you want to be angry, I will let you understand the reason first, and I will not let you think that I am unreasonable. ”

"Okay." He Ningzhou nodded in agreement, but he couldn't help but think in his heart that this person would have this kind of thought, which can only be said to be a progress in his thinking, but unfortunately he is still an immature child in nature.

A few days later in a cultural class.

Shen Xinghe's learning in this class has always been all-encompassing, and what he wants to learn today is geography.

"Now I would like to introduce some of the other countries on this continent to Your Highness. Your Highness, please take a look. An Les said and took out a scroll and spread it out on the desk in front of Shen Xinghe, only to see that it was a map with five continents, more than twenty countries, and five countries on the same continent as Shengyi. Shen Xinghe thought, there are still a few undiscovered continents in this world.

"These five that are with us on the continent of Neotis," Anles pointed first to the one south of the kingdom of St. I, and to the east the sea, "this is the kingdom of Sibea," he said in a clockwise direction, "the kingdoms of Stogor, Ancina, Ucot, and Nisa, of which Sibea and Anchina are friendly with us." "These two countries are bordered by St. I, to the south and to the southwest," Stogor and Nissa are generally related, "Stogor is also adjacent to St. I, to the north, and Nisa is to the southwest of Stogor," and "although Urkot is an enemy country, it is very far from our country, and there is a huge Palma Desert in between," and the Pama Desert is west of St. I, "so they rarely go to war with us, and they do not interact with each other." Because of the border between Yukot and Anchina, the two countries often wage wars, and for this reason, our country has sent troops to support Anchina several times. ”

Shen Xinghe nodded in understanding.

"Here's what we're looking across the ocean." He gave a general introduction to the diplomatic situation of other countries and the Holy Rice Country as before, and said: "The vast majority of these countries are the same as my country, there are three kinds of people, the Phantom Clan, the B, and the Mizuki Clan, but there are only two kinds of people in the Lanlai Carlo Country, the Phantom Clan and the Mizuki Clan, and the total population is more than that of the Phantom Clan and the Mizuki Clan in other countries, "This country is in the east of the Neotis continent, covers a small area, and is a friendly country of the Holy I, so their magic and overall combat strength are very strong, However, compared to the total population of other countries, it is very small, accounting for only 8% of our country, and the land area is only the size of four Phantom Night Cities, so it can maintain a relative balance with its neighbors. There are several very powerful magicians in the country of Lanlai Carlo, who can cultivate three attributes to the highest level, including a healer with the main attribute of light, and His Highness can target him. After speaking, he looked at Shen Xinghe with a smile.

The latter mentally agreed with his statement.

"In addition, the whole country is made up of B, who does not know magic, is the country of Rovia," this country is located in the southeast, and the whole continent is a country, which is also a friend of Shengyi, "his resources are very rich, and because the people do not know magic, it should be easy to become a vassal state of other countries, but, first, they are not adjacent to any country, they are surrounded by the sea, the geographical position is superior, and the military expenditure for levy is extremely high. Second, the weapons they make are extremely high-damage, the first in the world, far more than other countries, so the fortifications are extremely strong. And just like that, all the countries that wanted to fight their ideas were defeated. ”

Shen Xinghe had a question, "Since their country is not closed to the outside world, it means that they will exchange and learn from other countries, isn't there any country that has that kind of very powerful spy personnel to steal some secrets?" "It was a whim for him.

"This," Anles explained, "is, first of all, there are only two people at most who have access to each weapon, and they will only have contact with the king and the commander-in-chief, and even the people themselves will not know who they are, and the people responsible for the production of weapons will certainly not know how they work. In addition, when it comes to intelligence organizations, Rovia's national security department is the best in the world, and its counter-reconnaissance capability is naturally the first. It's the same as some countries that have that kind of extremely powerful magic, but its magic book is only in the hands of one person, and no one else can learn it. ”

"I see." Shen Xinghe was curious about what kind of weapons they could make, and what kind of people the inventors of the weapons would be.

"The contacts between our country and our friends are also very close, for example, at the last great event, the envoys of Sibea, Ancina and Lanlecarlo were present, and it was Sido who was responsible for receiving them. We also often send representatives to other countries, and when there is a particularly important diplomatic event, the lord of the castle will personally attend. Speaking of which, your eldest brother, His Highness Kriya, has visited many times. ”

"Yes." Since that brother is a Phantom Clan LPH Phantom Clan who has passed the adult assessment, he naturally has to work more hard in terms of diplomacy.

"Also, I want to know, does Your Highness remember what you learned in etiquette class?" Anles asked, his expression suggesting.

"Yes." This is learned in the evenings of the ten days before class, including the diplomatic etiquette of various countries.

"Your Highness can review and review, I believe you will use it sooner or later."

"Okay."

Towards the end of this lesson, An Les said to Shen Xinghe Dao: "I have been entrusted to know how His Highness is studying martial arts and magic now?" ”

Shen Xinghe said truthfully: "Martial arts, because my arm strength has not yet reached the requirements of He Ningzhou, I have only learned the basic movements. Magic can only heal very simple wounds now. Speaking of this, Shen Xinghe was curious: "Who asked you to ask?" ”

"Confidentiality." Anlais smiled, then sighed softly, "Looks like I'm going to talk to a few of your teachers." ”

When leaving, Shen Xinghe always felt that this person had a big thing to hide from him, and since the person he wanted to keep secret was not those teachers, who else would it be?

After dinner, Anles really invited Heningzhou, Paulrot, and Govis to his study.

"Lord Lulith asked me to ask you," After the four of them were seated, Anlais first said to Paulrot and Govis, "In your opinion, what level of magic will His Highness Thorrod reach in two months?" ”

"Two months later?" Paulrot wondered, "Why then?" Will something happen? I remember......" he tilted his head to think, "it won't be a big deal." ”

"I don't know," Anles said, "Lord Lulith didn't say, there may be, but for now, it's either not particularly important, or it's not yet time when we should know, and I personally prefer the second option, so I'd better have to have a bottom in my heart and don't be too surprised by the time." ”

Paulrot nodded, and then Govis continued: "Well, in my opinion, if Sawyer keeps increasing his mana at his current rate, then in two months he can heal that kind of wound that is deep enough to see the bones, and the damage caused by magic will be powerless." ”

"Yes," Anles said thoughtfully, "can't we continue to reconnect broken bones and heal burns?" ”

"The former is not good yet, at most it is a little repair, and it cannot be completely restored."

"Lord Lulith said, please find a way to raise his magic to the level I said within two months, or there will be a little trouble."

Govis and Paulrot glanced at each other, both of them frowned slightly, Paulrot showed a little embarrassment, "This, he has spent almost all of his spare time practicing now, and it is difficult to squeeze out other time." ”

Anlais smiled slightly, "But he didn't use his sleep time, it was quite a lot of time." "Every time Anles rolls his eyes, it feels like he's trying to play tricks.

"But," Paul Roth scratched his head, "he's worked so hard that he has to use even the time he sleeps now, isn't it too much?" ”

Anlais didn't answer immediately, his eyes darkened, indicating that he agreed with Bao in his heart, and then regained his previous look, because he knew that the fundamental reason for doing so was for the good of that person.

An Les didn't answer, but turned to He Ningzhou, "He Ningzhou, I heard that His Highness said that he hasn't reached your required arm strength yet, so he hasn't started to learn moves, has he?" ”

"Yes."

"So how long do you think it will take him to meet your requirements?"

He Ningzhou thought for a moment, "About five days later. ”

"If you were asked to think of a way to speed up your cultivation of your physical strength at the same time, would you be able to do it?"

This time, He Ningzhou thought about it for a long time, but he finally gave An Les an affirmative answer.

Leaving the study, Paulrot said to the other two people in great confusion: "You say, what will happen in two months for His Highness to practice so hard?" His eyes showed unbearability, for more than two months, that person's efforts have been seen by everyone, but everyone also knows that because of his unknown mission, his fate is destined to be extraordinary.
