The scene was a little cold. [Ran^Text^Library] []

Princess Sarah's smile remained unchanged but she didn't respond.

"My lord, don't let the elders wait for a long time," the emaciated man standing behind the Eighteenth Prince gently tugged at his sleeve and whispered.

The eighteenth prince paused, frowned slightly but did not look back, "Little sister, go around by yourself, the royal brother will deal with some business first," The tall man walked away without waiting for Princess Sarah to respond.

At the moment when he and Lin Ke passed by, Lin Ke raised his eyes to look at him, but he didn't look at Lin Ke again.

Only the emaciated man who had interrupted him with his previous words from the entourage behind him respectfully saluted Princess Sarah, and then nodded apologetically at Lin Ke, who looked up, before quickly chasing after him.

"Are you angry?" Princess Sarah asked the expressionless Lin Kedao.

"One thing," Lin Ke said with a big smile, "His Royal Highness the Eighteenth Prince has been in the army for quite some time. ”

Sarah gave him a smile back and walked on with him, "Yes, the army is a good place to hone people, but in the final analysis, it depends on the identity of the person being honed, so I'm still not sure if it's good or bad to give you some connections up and down today." ”

"Whether it's good or bad, my sister's thoughts and younger brother keep it in mind," Lin Ke said sincerely.

Sarah looked at him, smiled and said nothing.

――――――――――――――――――――

The auction has not officially started yet.

In a gorgeously arranged box in the hotel, the Nineteenth Prince, who had a relationship with Lin Ke before, was comfortably lying in the soft seat in the center, his expression was lazy but his smile remained unchanged.

"Ladies and gentlemen, my father has found some children for my little sister, what do you think?" said the Nineteenth Prince with a smile.

"Your Royal Highness, why should you worry about those things that are like a family, the royal law does not restrict the princess from inheriting the throne, but the empire has never had a queen, not to mention that although Her Royal Highness Princess Sarah is extremely intelligent, her cultivation talent is also excellent, and she is deeply favored by Your Majesty, but her age is too young, Your Majesty ...... Your Majesty was still young when she was old," said a richly dressed middle-aged man who looked to be quite old.

"That's true, Your Majesty put some young people around Her Royal Highness the Princess at this time, I'm afraid that they should let them play with Her Royal Highness the Princess more, and maybe it is to give us some meaning, you know, not long ago, the old man officially joined the Eighteenth Prince's side, and the movement was ......a little bigger," another middle-aged man who looked even older looked at the old man sitting beside the Nineteenth Prince with his eyes closed and said.

The nineteenth prince's smile became even brighter, "It's okay for the others, the boy named Cohen still has to be checked, Xiaomei is not a rash person, there must be another reason why the children of the little nobles in this remote area look at each other so differently, you have to keep an eye on it." ”

Standing behind the Nineteenth Prince, one of the several entourages nodded yes.

"We still have to be a little more restrained, Your Highness," the old man who had been sitting next to the Nineteenth Prince suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Your Majesty is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, but he is not a person who will make a casual move, the old minister is okay to say, that old guy's action of approaching the Eighteenth Prince this time is afraid that it will alarm His Majesty's mind, find some little playmates for Her Royal Highness the Princess...... Hehe, don't you just tell us to stop in moderation?"

The Nineteenth Prince straightened his body, restrained his smile, and nodded, "That's what Uncle said." ”

――――――――――――――――――――

A private room in the hotel.

The eighteen princes that Lin Ke had seen in the hall before sat on the hardwood chairs in the center, the chairs on both sides were lined up, and some middle-aged and elderly people in luxurious clothes sat on the left and right.

And the entourage who had interrupted the words of the Eighteen Princes before was sitting on his left side!

"Your Highness, I'm afraid that our actions some time ago have already made Your Majesty unhappy, and it was a bit reckless to meet at this time, if Your Majesty knew about it, I would definitely be even more dissatisfied," the old man sitting next to the Eighteen Princes frowned slightly.

"Don't worry, not to mention that the father of this legendary auction will never ask, just say that somewhere in this hotel, isn't the old nineteen also staying with his gang of eagle dogs to discuss things?"

"Ahem, Your Highness, it's called a think tank, not an eagle dog......" The middle-aged man sitting next to him gave him a look without a trace.

"Oh, yes, look at me, the old man is coarse, this speech is indeed not as good as a weak scholar like Lao Nineteen," the eighteenth prince's laughter shook everyone's ears, fortunately, the sound insulation effect of the box is very good, and several layers of soundproof magic array are added, otherwise I am afraid that it will alarm many people, "But my God of War Empire is mostly positioned by martial arts, and this prince will give everyone great confidence when he sits here, isn't it?!"

Everyone said yes again and again.

"My father doesn't like the importance that the boss attaches to me, so it's not good for us to celebrate, but today, in this legendary auction, everyone will fight for what they like, and the prince will press for everyone, and he won't dare to say more, so that everyone can get one or two treasures, and the prince still has the financial resources," the eighteenth prince said arrogantly.

The crowd rejoiced.

After a long time, everyone dispersed, leaving only the eighteen princes and the two cronies around them in the box, and the flirtatious smile on the face of the tall prince slowly dissipated, but the upright sitting posture did not change in the slightest.

"How did Sarah behave when I left?" the Eighteenth Prince asked the middle-aged man beside him.

"Her Royal Highness the princess is very calm, there is nothing special," the middle-aged man said thoughtfully, "but the boy next to Her Royal Highness the princess can also maintain basic calm, and it is not easy at a young age." ”

"Hmph, it's just a dog thing clinging to the powerful, it's not worth mentioning. The father and emperor have brought some young people by Sarah's side, could it be that he wants to cultivate another royal power? What can be done just by relying on these crooked melons and cracked dates?!" The eighteenth prince paused for a moment and then turned his head and asked the middle-aged man, "Clarence, I didn't use the wrong words this time, did I?"

The middle-aged man named Clarence smiled bitterly and said, "According to what you mean, it's not wrong, but do you really think that these people are crooked melons and cracked dates? A son of a provincial aristocratic family who can sit in the position of a non-commissioned officer at the age of thirty-five, and his father who became a captain of Dragon Slayer Fort at the age of fifty? Or is it the most outstanding third-generation figure of the Roderick family and his father? Your Highness, if you just look at the present, they are indeed embarrassed, but what about another ten or twenty years?! And the little boy who followed Her Royal Highness the Princess, if you don't check it, how can you know what kind of strangeness he has?"

The eighteenth prince snorted lightly, noncommittal.
