Chapter 40: Identity Becomes Prince

1 November 527 at 16:38 in the Magic Calendar

"Marshall, you can heal magic, so you are from the Zezhi Kingdom. That flute of yours, do you know how important a magic weapon it is? It was a magic weapon that had been passed down from generation to generation by the Zezhi royal family. ”

Marshall swallowed and said, "Sir, don't be joking. If it's such a valuable thing, why is it in my hands? ”

"Don't you understand? Who are you? You are the royal family of Zezhi, can you believe it? ”

"Then I'm still a son." Marshall laughed in disbelief.

"You're a prince."

"Sir, don't play tricks on me like that."

"I'm not kidding you." Xiang Risong stared at Marshall solemnly, which made him gradually begin to accept what Xiang Risong said.

"For as long as I can remember, there has never been a relationship between the two kingdoms of the Rose Kingdom and the Zezhi Kingdom, how can I be some kind of prince?"

"Because I lived with the weapon master Gofuda Zhi for a while when I was very young. So, when I saw you crouching on the side of the street, I recognized the flute in your hand at a glance. Only the owner of the flute can blow it, and no one else can use it at all. With a little temptation, I can know who you are. ”

"That confirms?"

"I think you should know better than I do by now that you can be treated with a flute. I don't need to say any more. ”

Marshall stared at the knick-knacks on the cabinet behind Xiang Himatsu and thought about something.

Mukaimatsu picked up the milk cup on the table, took a large sip of milk, and continued, "On December 31, 508, King Mofili Ari issued a ban on intercourse with the Zezhi Kingdom at the beginning of November. All Zezhi people who have not intermarried with the nationals of the Rose Kingdom must leave the territory of the Rose Kingdom.

Later, I carefully checked all the records of the case, and finally found that there was a pregnant princess Zezhi who was involved in a car accident on November 25, 508, and although there were eyewitnesses who reported it to the council, no one knew that she was a princess, so the judges at the time did not pay attention to her. By the time they arrived at the scene, the princess had disappeared. And because of the ban, there is no record of the subsequent investigation. ”

"My Mother ......" Marshall never imagined what his mother would be like, but when Xiang Himatsu told the story in a calm and onlooker's tone, Marshall's heart actually had a wave that he had never felt before.

"The Zezhi people, who are pregnant in August and September during this time period, exclude other descendants who have been found by me, and only this princess and you are the most compatible. Marshall, this is a bit hard for you to accept. If you can go back, you don't have to worry about you not being able to take care of Hongying. ”

Xiang Risong stood up from the sofa, glanced at Marshall, who had a dull expression, and said with a smile: "As for what you plan to do in the future, it has nothing to do with me." You're completely free, Marshall. ”

"Freedom ......" Marshall took a deep breath, then looked at Xiang Himatsu and nodded a little dazedly, "My mood has become so strange. You tell me now, I'm ......"

Marshall sighed again, hung his head and said nothing, turned to open the door and left.

After leaving the royal city, he unconsciously returned to the house of Xiang Himatsu. He stood outside the door and looked up at the villa.

It turned out that this sudden change of identity really happened to him, and he did not have the joy and excitement as he imagined.

Marshall returned to his rented apartment, a dilapidated apartment in the northern part of the Doro district, just a wall away from Yetingfang. He sat on the only small bed in the small room of the apartment, looking out the window at the barren Ye Tingfang.

Perhaps, this is the opportunity that God has given me.

Marshall took a change of clothes and put it in his suitcase, carrying the black box containing the flute, and returned to the Jusway School of Magic.

When I arrived at the Academy of Magic, it was almost six o'clock, and the teacher-student exchange meeting was over.

Marshall opened the door to the dean's lounge and saw that Dusty Tay was still sitting on his favorite couch reading a book.

He looked up at Marshall, with forehead lines all over his forehead, and said, "Why are you back?" Why can't I feel magic in you? Red Glowing says you'll heal magic? ”

"Dean, solemnly introduce yourself. My name is Marshall. Marshall sat down on the other single couch, opened the black box, and gave Occi Shui Tai a look.

Dean Zhan Siwei's eyes widened at him, as if he hadn't seen such hot eyes from this old man since he had doubted Hongying's identity.

"You! Your name is ...... Marshall, Marshall...... Yes, Marshall, you also call Marshall......"

Marshall assembled the flute and played a long note.

The dean covered his mouth with his wrinkled hands and eyes: "Your grandfather's name is also Marshall." That's great! It turns out that you are still alive. ”

"Do you know my background?" The muscles in Marshall's thighs tightened instantly, and he lifted his upper body closer to the dean.

Marshall saw that the dean's eyes, cloudy from old age, gradually moistened, and the excitement and curiosity that had been suppressed before exploded in an instant.

The dean clapped his hand on Marshall's shoulder, nodded his head with great excitement, and said, "I have always believed that you and your mother are not dead, but somewhere, lost. Marshall, you've always been at the Sunpine house? ”

Marshall nodded. "Who am I?"

"You are the grandson of King Marshall I of the Zezhi Kingdom, if the princess did not have an accident, you should have become the prince of Zezhi."

"Why is the Dean so familiar with the affairs of the Zezhi Kingdom?"

"It's a long story. Now the only people who can use healing magic in China are the missing twelve paladins Liu Quanshui, and the two little girls of my family, Alice and Lilith. Ah, and you. Intermarriage with the nobles of Zezhi was just a means for King Yuri to obtain healing magic.

In 493, when he was only 20 years old, he became king. He opened his borders and interacted closely with the other four kingdoms. Then he immediately proposed intermarriage to other kingdoms, and at first only the Zezhi Kingdom agreed.

At that time, the Zhan Siwei family was handpicked by the king, so my son Zhan Siwei Lu married Zezhi's aristocratic daughter Lianyu, and gave birth to two daughters. Lianyu's cousin married Liu Shu again and gave birth to Liu Quanshui.

Later, in 506, which was supposed to be a time of great peace, there was a strange war on the border. Before people could react, Wonli had already taken half of the knights to the country of Shandan. When it comes to war, you've probably seen the Battle of Shandan in various books. ”

"Well, the books say that it was because Shandan was jealous of the prosperity of roses that he started the war."

"Shandan is a small country, so I said that I know several royal families of Shandan well, and they are not the kind of people who like war at all. There is no way to do such a thing. ”

"So, the king is for the Moonflower?"

"That's right. There are also the gods of the steppes and freedom. However, Princess Shandan did not tell the god of the Anli steppe and the god of freedom until her death. Rainbow only brought back two moon stones. ”

"Before that, what did it mean to say that Hongying was a Shandan witch, and no book had this record."

"Every Shandan princess will awaken to become a Shandan witch through some kind of ritual, and then protect the Shandan Kingdom. I heard about this when I was a kid. At first, I didn't believe it either, but then a copy of Persona appeared on my desk, and it was written like that. It wasn't until later that I sensed the power in Hongying's body, and I don't know why I just knew that this power was the Shandan Witch. ”

"You don't mean to say she's Princess Shandan?!"

"I think it's very likely, but I don't have and I can't confirm it. A prince, a princess, the two of you are too similar in life and experience. ”

Marshall rubbed his palms, looked at the dean sincerely, and said, "Dean, I want to learn healing magic well." ”

"To go back and be a prince?"

"No, my reason is simple, I have someone I want to protect." Marshall put away his flute and nodded politely to the dean, "Thank you for your willingness to let me stay in the academy, I can't learn elemental magic, I won't take the exam or anything." ”

The dean looked at Marshall with a kind smile, handed Lilith's communication card to Marshall, and said, "You can contact Lilith when you have time, and I will let her teach you well." There should be empty rooms in the dormitory, so you should stay in the boys' dormitory first. I think there will be students who will recognize you and say something nasty. You must not go to your heart. ”

"I see."

Marshall left the Dean's Lounge and was at the door of the boys' dormitory when he met Murphyli Fendy.

"Marshall, you're here so soon?" Fendi's eyes rolled, "How's Hongying's body?" ”

Marshall no longer has the inferior posture that he used to have beside Xiang Risong, I don't know if it's because he's been with Hongying for a long time or because he has really fully accepted his identity as a real royal family.

"I don't know what you're caring about Hongying for, but as long as I'm with her, don't try to get close to her."

Fendi looked at Marshall and felt a little ridiculous: "Your master is not here, you dare to say that to me......"

Marshall ignored Fendi and continued to walk to the dormitory.

Fendi wasn't angry this time, she just thought Marshall was a little weird.

It's not just faithfulness! Why do I have so many enemies, Hongying, Hongying, you really provoke men.

When Marshall walked up the stairs past the third floor, he met Meng Tianyu again.

Meng Tianyu stared at Marshall with some surprise and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"What's the matter with you?"

"Is it a red ......" Meng Tianyu remembered Fendi's words at noon, and still felt very angry.

Just when Meng Tianyu was struggling with whether to ask if something had happened to Hongying, Marshall had already gone up the stairs unhurriedly.

Meng Tianyu sighed, and when he turned around and was about to go back to the room, he saw Meng Tianyi staring at him.

"Brother, don't be so scary, okay?"

"Marshall, why are you here? What did you say? ”

"Brother, you're so scary now, we haven't said anything yet!" Meng Tianyu took a deep breath, "I'm tired today, I'm going to rest." ”

"You're not training?"

"Ah, I'm so sleepy and tired! Good night, brother. ”

Meng Tianyu didn't pay attention to Meng Tianyi, and lay on the bed and covered his head with a quilt.

"Are you a pig? What time is it? Don't you go to eat? ”

"Meng Tianyu, then I'll go eat by myself......"
