Prince's Palace.

As the last remaining supreme royal family of the Bain Kingdom, the residence of Prince Lawrence is naturally magnificent.

Although its area is not the largest among the palaces of the imperial relatives, the degree of delicacy inside is definitely not comparable to other clan mansions.

Among them, there are countless carved beams and paintings, rare and exotic objects, and they can even compete with the real Bane royal court.

Under the high-pressure actions of the Bain Kingdom several times over the past hundred years, the Lawrence family has been able to stand firm to this day and still stand out in the royal city, which is enough to see its deep heritage.

Although it was close to dawn, the Prince's Mansion was not completely silent, there were guards who dutifully stuck to their posts, and from time to time you could still see some small queues patrolling, and occasionally a few sporadic servants came and went.

The shadow of the patrol team, illuminated by the courtyard lights, looked lofty and solemn.

Although it is only a mechanized cruise, it makes people have no doubt that they can show their combat effectiveness in the event of any emergency.

However, in the eyes of some people, this kind of lofty team is actually not without loopholes.

Now, for example, none of the patrolmen noticed any anomalies in the shadows under their feet as they passed by the lights.

Hei Nie Yuan silently hid at their feet, almost effortlessly, and followed the team into the core of the Prince's Mansion.

His trip was to get in touch with a spy who had already broken into the Prince's Palace, and it was a test for Gladys.

Because the men sent in the previous few times failed to go back, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and not even a single blister came out.

It can be seen that the internal review of the Prince's Mansion has reached a perverted level.

Even if an internal spy wants to spread the news, he can't do it, not only the news can't get out, but as long as there is a change, it will be difficult to protect himself.

Gladys didn't know how Prince Lawrence had managed to do this, but she was sure that if Hei Nie Yuan could bring something back from here, he would definitely take a position with Gladys that no one else could replace.

However, Hei Nie Yuan, who originally had the idea of going deep into the tiger's den, has been smooth sailing since he entered the prince's mansion, and he has traveled all the way to his hinterland without encountering any unexpected dangers.

On the contrary, it made his previous caution seem redundant, and the rumors were loud.

This is a very abnormal thing.

Because if the Prince's Mansion was really so ruined, then the people sent by Gladys before would not have evaporated from the world.

However, the facts are in front of him, and he did get here easily, without encountering any danger, which made Hei Nie Yuan feel very disobedient.

Unknown threats are the most alarming.

The patrol was on the verge of Prince Lawrence's residence.

According to Hei Nie Yuan's plan, at this time, he should leave the team and go there to see if he could bring something else back besides contacting the internal spies.

In fact, he did the same, and when the patrol passed by a fountain, a black shadow was hidden in the shadow of the fountain.

However, the next moment, Hei Nie Yuan fell into a long stagnation, he hid in the shadows, across a garden, looking at the prince's residence, but stayed where he was, motionless.

Because, for no reason, when Hei Nie Yuan saw Prince Lawrence's residence just now, his heart suddenly sounded an alarm bell and throbbed.

If you follow the patrol and get close to that place, you will encounter unimaginable disasters.

This is also the main reason why he chose to leave the team, the sixth sense in the dark is too strong, so strong that Hei Nie Yuan almost fell into a kind of rigidity and stillness, just like ordinary people facing a hungry beast, they dare not act rashly.

At this time, Hei Nie Yuan had some understanding of those spies who had never returned.

It turned out that the danger did not come from the guards of the Prince's Palace, but from ......

The prince himself?

Regarding the sixth sense he has, although Hei Nie Yuan himself does not know the reason, he is extremely convinced.

This is where he is better than the ontology Nie Yuan, even if everything he has comes from the ontology, but it is precisely because he is not a complete copy of what the ontology has that in some aspects, it appears more pure.

Just like ordinary people who give birth to a sixth sense, they often think it's an illusion.

Because of the knowledge accumulated over the years, it will dilute that invisible feeling, thinking that occasionally an illogical thought is so absurd, and Wan Er laughs and forgets it.

Even if they don't perceive the anomaly at all, people prefer to believe in their own logic and cognition, rather than a thought that arises out of thin air, and instinctively treats it as a "distracting thought" and stifles it in the cradle.

However, Hei Nie Yuan's existence is a simple projection of the mysterious attributes of the ontology Nie Yuan, and he is born with it and will not be disturbed by those acquired cognitions.

As a result, his intuition must be more accurate and stronger than anyone else's.

Outside, Hei Nie Yuan stopped moving, and his heart was uncertain.

Inside Prince Lawrence's residence, it was not quiet, and faint lights could be seen spilling from the elegant window lattices.

I don't know if Prince Lawrence got up early or didn't sleep all night.

At this moment, the prince himself was sitting behind his desk, and a light hanging on the side wall cast his shadow on the ground, not bright, but just enough to make people see the scene around the desk.

Viewed from the front, half of the Prince's body above his chest is out of the range of the light, in shadow, giving a sense of mysterious majesty.

In front of him, a man in uniform, bowing slightly, reported something to him.

"Morris was defeated by Nie Yuan and died, and his death was dragged into the ground, which is bound to make the church begin to doubt and investigate the source of his power, which may cause you a little trouble, but fortunately, his last words before falling into purgatory should clear our suspicions of not knowing about it......"

At this, the man in uniform paused, and his eyes seemed to be watching Prince Lawrence's expression in the shadows.

Da Da Da ~ Prince Lawrence's left hand rested on the table and banged on the table with a crisp bumping sound.

It can be seen that this prince should not be a rigid and peaceful lord, but rather a maverick, at least from his appearance, he will give people this sense.

Because his left hand, which was beating on the tabletop, actually had a black floral tattoo painted on the lower arm, which spread all the way forward to the fingertips.

This makes the whole arm look bells and whistles, as if it is full of magic patterns, and compared with the solemn and serious identity of the royal clan, it seems strange and inconsistent.

"What did he say?"

Prince Lawrence finally spoke, asking his subordinates.

The voice seemed to be much younger than his real age of nearly half a hundred, clear and magnetic.

He said that he would not let Nie Yuan go...... And yours. ”

The man in uniform bent his waist even lower, and told the truth.

"I don't know where the confidence comes from, he even thinks that he can crawl back from hell."

Prince Lawrence continued: "Sure enough, it's a waste, he can't do anything, and he still causes trouble for me when he dies, and he probably thinks I've treated him badly, so even I hate it, but...... Waste is only worth that price. ”

The man in uniform humbly said, "You're right, it's not a pity for Morris to die, but how are we going to deal with the pressure of the church next?" ”

Lawrence leaned forward slightly, exposing his face to the light.

It can be seen that this is a tough face, with sharp edges and corners, and the temples are a little white, but there are not a few wrinkles on his face, compared with his real age, he looks very young, and he is in his early thirties, I am afraid that some people will believe it.

The whole is not very handsome, but there is a kind of graceful extravagance, deep and fascinating.

Prince Lawrence looked at his subordinate and said, "This matter, you shouldn't be in charge, don't ask more, have you forgotten to do your job?" The next is not an example. ”

The man in uniform trembled in his heart, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Yes, subordinates remember." ”

"Let's go down."

Prince Lawrence leaned back slightly, then let his upper body return to the shadows again, and said: "Go and get me another copy of the information from Buck's bookstore, this time in more detail, as well as the recent situation of Lilian and Stanny......"

"Yes......"

The man in uniform replied and was about to bow down.

But he didn't want Prince Lawrence, so he suddenly stopped him again and said, "And my two unsuccessful sons, I heard that he is going to get married recently?" ”

The man in uniform was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "Yes, Master Jack, he is already engaged, and...... He invited Nie Yuan to be his witness......"

Lawrence waved his hand slightly, and said, "You don't need to call him young master, the outside world is just guessing that he may be my illegitimate son, and it's best for him not to have anything to do with me, let alone get involved in this fight...... When the time comes, find a name and send him a congratulatory gift. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

The man in uniform retreated, full of suspicion in his heart, but he did not dare to show it, and closed the door lightly.

Prince Lawrence was the only one left in the room.

Da Da Da ~ He continued to tap his index finger on the table slowly, and his gaze fell on the file on the table about his own brother in the imperial court.

Then, he raised his left hand covered with flowers slightly, and with a flick of it on the file, he erased the words on the file out of thin air.

During this time, there seemed to be tiny yellow particles that were difficult to see with the naked eye, falling on the file, but disappearing in the blink of an eye.

If there is a botanist or a veteran painter here, you will definitely be able to tell it at a glance.

Although the tattoo on Prince Lawrence's arm is relatively rudimentary, with only a black outline, which is not fully colored, the features are still very noticeable.

It is a kind of precious plant, called: polyhedron.

Just because of the characteristics of this flower, it is so extraordinary.

That is one of these flowers, which is often able to produce several flowers with different appearances, all tied to a bunch of rhizomes.

The reason why the "polyhedron" plant is valuable is because although it can secrete a large amount of pollen during the pollen season to increase its own chance of reproduction, but the environmental requirements for the growing place are too high.

Delicate is not like words, a little environmental flaw, will quickly wither, wither, or even can not germinate and grow at all, so the number of its surviving is very small and very rare.

Especially after some painters discovered that their stamens and pollen could be used as high-grade pigments for painting......
