The same crippled siblings, the same waiter dress, the same military temperament. All this immediately reminded Du Wei of the night he was assassinated in Jumu Town on the way to Dìdū!

As soon as a trace of evil aura appeared on his face, the waiter immediately noticed it, and his originally rock-like calm expression immediately flashed a hint of jǐngti, and after taking a step back, a jīng light suddenly appeared in his eyes and stared at Du Wei!

Du Wei had already touched a magic scroll in his sleeve. Since the assassination, Du Wei has a good habit, he has sewn two pockets in the sleeves of his magician's robe, the wide sleeves of the magician's robe are a good place to hide weapons, and the pockets of each of the two sleeves are placed with a few magic scrolls, so that he can quickly have the ability to protect himself when encountering danger.

At this moment, Du Wei held a magic petrification scroll in his hand, staring at this waiter carefully, as long as he dared to move slightly, he was immediately ready to pop the scroll out of his sleeve. My dear friend, what's wrong with you? Look at your face, it seems a little uncomfortable?" A gentle greeting, Prince Chen suddenly took a step slowly, this step was just right, and the gentle aura on his body immediately dispersed the murderous aura between Du Wei and the waiter, and instantly dissipated the crisis into invisibility. Prince Chen's step seemed simple, but it seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally blocked right between Du Wei and the waiter.

Du Wei smiled reluctantly and glanced at His Highness deeply: "It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly have a headache." Then, his gaze crossed over to Prince Chen. It fell on the waiter's hand, and said with a smile: "I'm just curious, in this kind of place, why does this waiter ...... hand."

The waiter also seemed relieved, and silently bent down and bowed respectfully to Du Wei. But even when I bow. His body was tense. It seems to be ready at all times. Du Wei looked at him, did not move, and the waiter bowed, and quietly stepped back.

"This is not the right place. A whisper from Prince Chen quietly fell into Du Weidi's ears, and in a blink of an eye, Du Wei saw the deep eyes of this young highness, and he coughed in disguise: "I'm just a little curious." ”

Subsequently. Prince Chen had already pulled Du Wei out of the door and onto the terrace.

This terrace is huge. The stone carvings are carved in the dark night, and the silhouette looks mysterious. Du Wei deliberately looked at an ancient warrior statue in front of him. The statue warrior stood quietly on the stone platform with a long sword and armor, and Du Wei got closer to see the warrior's face. The eyes are actually inlaid with gemstones, and the long sword in the hand is also carved out of ivory. In the faint moonlight around it, a faint warm and soft sheen appeared on the ivory.

"The place is backstage. I guess it's the military. "Gazed at this samurai statue for a long time. Du Wei suddenly spoke. Prince Chen held the railing on the terrace with one hand and a crystal wine glass in the other. After listening to Du Weidi's words, he didn't answer immediately, but took a sip of wine first, then took a deep breath, and smiled: "Look, it's better to have a terrace." How beautiful are the roses blooming in the garden below...... If you can take your beloved girl with you in front of such a moon and flowers, it will definitely be a very beautiful thing. With that, Prince Chen turned around and glanced at Du Wei: "My friend, tell me." Do you have a beloved girl?"

"......" Du Wei glanced at His Highness silently and thought carefully for a while......

Beloved girl?

Not sure why. Thinking of this, Du Wei's mind suddenly flashed to the scene where he and little Vivien said goodbye that day in Walker Harbor, the little beautiful magician who spoke a little stuttered and blushed timidly kissed her on the cheek, and then left.

"Perhaps, yes. Du Wei replied with a smile involuntarily.

Prince Chen glanced at Du Wei quietly, and there was a faint look on his handsome face: "It's a pity, I didn't." ”

said. He shook his head, drank all the wine in the cup, then put down the wine glass, walked to Du Weidi's side, and said with a smile: "You guessed right just now, this place is backstage." The land is indeed the military. The expression on Du Wei's face did not change.

"I don't know what the hell happened to you. Prince Chen frowned slightly: "But I need to remind you that in this place, you'd better not do anything out of the ordinary." The depth of the water in this place is not what you can imagine

Speaking of this, Prince Chen glanced at Du Wei: "What are you thinking?"

"Nothing. Du Wei said lightly: "I just think that such a place is actually opened by the military...... There was some surprise. The dignified emperor ** Fang would actually make this kind of ...... Place. ”

"It's the ground. A trace of worry flashed in Prince Chen's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "It's very sad...... Perhaps, this is also one of the signs of the land before the great chaos comes. ”

Then he sighed and stood side by side with Du Wei: "This is actually not a secret, in the aristocratic circle of Dìdū, everyone knows it, but no one will break it." Even my father, he knew that this place existed, and that the military had built such a place around the dìdū land...... Hehe, the dignified Emperor ** team, guarding the glorious army of the Empire, actually doing such a thing, do you think my father is very happy? Every time I mention this place. He's going to be so angry that he's going to smash things...... But what can be done about it? Even a few bigwigs in the military command, including your father, have no good feelings about this place, but they are helpless. ”

"Why?"

"Because of money!" Prince Chen smiled bitterly: "Because of the lack of military funds and land!"

As he spoke, Emperor Chen raised his head, looked at the crescent moon in the sky and earth, and sighed softly: "My father, His Majesty Emperor Augustine VI, the ruler of this continent, reigned for forty-four years...... To tell the truth, if he was born in the war-torn era...... For example, in the era of Aragon, or in the turbulent era when our Augustinian family ascended the throne to save the empire, I am afraid that with my father's xìngge, he could become a generation of Ming lords and heroes! He likes martial arts, and he likes to fight in the north and south, and he satisfies his inner glorification needs by constantly conquering...... Actually, this is not a disadvantage, if in the war years. This would be a good advantage for a monarchy, but alas, he was born in a stable empire...... Moreover, in an empire with a thousand-year-old history, the state has reached the era of prosperity and decline! But it has produced a monarch who is full of conquest in his heart. That's not a blessing for a nation. ”

Du Wei didn't speak—the other party was His Majesty the current Emperor. It is a great sin to belittle the monarch behind this. The other party is the emperor's favorite youngest son, and he said behind his back that his Lao Tzu was not good, even if he was known, it didn't matter, but he couldn't answer!

"My father reigned for forty-four years, but unfortunately the whole continent has been unified, where is there anything else for him to conquer and vent his goal of conquering the land? Twenty years ago, my father organized a desert expedition and slaughtered 100,000 alien races, staining the yellow sand with blood, and that year was called the 'Year of Bloodshed'. Alas...... Father was too anxious. Although those alien races are frequently moved, they are all petty fights, and generally speaking, they are still under the rule and control of the empire. But because my father was anxious. When I found a target where I could vent, I did it desperately...... Although the conquest hit the alien race hard, but the slaughter of 100,000 people had a blood feud, but those alien races have since formed a blood feud with the empire, and the original pacification policy has no effect. Alas...... It's a pity that the previous emperor, my grandfather, worked hard for thirty years, but my father's butcher's knife was wiped out!" Prince Chen glanced at Du Wei: "That expedition to the desert war. You know that, right?"

Du Wei nodded.

Although the war took place twenty years ago, when Du Wei did not come to this world, he was familiar with a lot of history books and documents, and Du Wei probably knew the place of the war.

To the northwest of the continent lies a vast desert. Deep in the desert, geographically it is a long and narrow grassland. Set against the backdrop of snow-capped mountains. In that land, there is a nomadic alien race, who is not inferior and brave. That people had been conquered by the Empire during the time of Aragon, but after all, the interior of the Empire was separated by a desert between the steppe peoples, which became the biggest obstacle to the Empire's control of that area. For hundreds of years, the Empire's control over the conquered peoples was weak. That nation also often set off small-scale rebellions, and the empire conquered many times, and always won the most, but the vast desert caused the empire to lose a lot of supplies, and every time it won a war, it often outweighed the losses.
