Kai walked into the elegantly decorated room, and sure enough, found the owner of the room behind a desk tired of countless paper papers.

The man in a low-key but modest attire, quiet, gentle, and peaceful seat, sat quietly, gently, and peacefully, silently reading the scroll amid the rustle of turning pages and writing.

Kaisan jumped to the large desk in two steps, found a gap in the table, threw his ass back, and sat down extremely indecently.

He blinked, laughed at the owner of the room sighing and putting down his pen, glancing at him, shaking his head helplessly, and bowing his head again to fight with the book.

Kai raised an eyebrow in response.

Here, he has no scruples.

Here, he doesn't have to worry.

Because the ...... who are sitting there

He is his most amiable elder brother Wang.

Kay turned his head and was surprised to find a bottle of wine and several glasses on the side of the desk that seemed to be of the Duchy of Serra.

"I remember you didn't like to drink. ”

Kai grabbed the bottle of wine unceremoniously and asked directly.

There is no need to greet each other, no greetings, and no meaningless politeness.

Because since a long, long time ago, this is his refuge, the windhaven, his last and true "home" in Eternal Star City.

This is especially true after the death of my mother.

"But Horace and Heyman like it," said Brother Wang, who did not look up, but his voice was as good as ever, and though not as melodious as Heyman's, it had a different kind of gentle power, which made people unconsciously calm down the restlessness and calm down:

"The same goes for you. ”

Kai grabbed the bottle, filled a glass, and shrugged:

"Then ...... Thank you for your hospitality. ”

Elder Brother Wang snorted, flipped through a page, and grabbed another scroll.

Kai took a sip of wine, and while complaining about his brother's wine taste, he also reacted to two other names:

"So today is a special holiday?

Kai walked to the window and took a look, but he didn't see the two scumbags and despicable figures, probably gone.

"Muscular guy, sissy, dead fat guy...... Why, as soon as the old stubborn is gone, all the strange creatures in the royal capital will run away from you?"

Elder Brother Wang laughed eatingly, and the laughter shook in the air, gentle but quite infectious:

"Don't scold yourself like that. ”

Kai understood the sarcasm in his brother's words after a second, and suddenly scratched his head:

"Oh. ”

If or Horace had been so sarcastic about him, then Kay would have been unceremoniously sarcastic.

But this is what Elder Brother Wang said, but it is just a small joke.

They are different.

They are also different.

"What are they looking for from you?"

Brother Shasha wrote something, and changed the next page: "I'm looking for them." You know, my father went on patrol, and the government affairs reported directly to me. ”

Kay suddenly:

"Oh, no wonder Horace has a stinky face, it's. ”

He said this, but his heart was very happy.

But Kai then realized that he had spoken foully.

He hurriedly pressed his mouth and made a silent lip gesture to Elder Brother Wang apologetically:

I'm sorry.

The elder brother was as lifeless as ever, his gaze was still on the paper, he just curled the corners of his mouth and smiled.

It's like Kai's expression when he deliberately tore up his brother's books when he was a child.

Gentle, peaceful, accommodating, bright.

Kai guessed that no matter how much trouble he caused and how much trouble he caused, even if he killed King Exeter, the eldest brother would probably only shake his head gently, smile faintly, and then tell him:

With me here, don't be afraid, you can rest early.

And he always has a way.

There always is.

Thinking of this, Kai found that his red wine glass was empty, and during the interval of re-pouring wine, he glanced at the document in Brother Wang's hand, which looked like a letter written by some foreign nobleman.

He knew that it was a national matter, but Brother Wang didn't seem to mind.

"What's that?"

Elder Brother Wang rubbed his frowning brows: "The land tax dispute between Fenghui Fort and Maolin. ”

Kai blinked, "It's serious?"

"This involves a conflict between the Blade Lord's traditional statutes and the Virtuous Monarch's Shokadell Act, and I plan to have Banker mediate next quarter, which is ostensibly an uneven tax payment between the old and new nobles, but in fact ......"

Elder Brother Wang suddenly raised his head as he spoke, revealing a gentle face, his eyebrows were soft and quiet, which made people feel more cordial, and his eyes were peaceful, as if they would never be dim:

"What, you're interested?"

Kai raised his hand in surrender, and his head shook like a rattle:

"I don't understand any of that anyway—unless there's something about me?"

Sometimes he feels lucky that he will never have to deal with these troublesome government affairs, and he also has an all-powerful elder brother Wang to protect himself from the wind and rain.

More fortunately, the eldest brother Wang is the crown prince, the heir, and the future master of the stars.

Imagine if someone else had inherited the throne — a madman like Horace or a straw bale like Hyman — and the sunset, Kay swore that he would rather rebel and be ruined than see anything like that.

Well, except, perhaps, Uncle John.

"Well, I think, yes," Elder Brother Wang frowned and thought about it thoughtfully, revealing a worried look:

"In the next five years, the ladies who come from Fenghui Fort will be in a hurry to get married more than before. ”

In an instant, Kai's face changed drastically:

"Oh my God, it looks like the problem is really serious. ”

Elder Brother Wang looked at him and couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

At this second, the corners of the brother's mouth curved into a good-looking arc, and the smile in his eyes seemed to contain the optimism of the whole world.

The reason why Heyman is called a "beauty" and makes people crazy, Kai thought to himself, it must be because Elder Brother Wang disdains to fight with him.

Because when Elder Brother Wang laughs, he is more beautiful than anyone else, gentler than anyone else, brighter than anyone else, and more ...... than anyone else

More charismatic.

Kai laughed naturally, too, and it was the kind of "silly laugh" that would make him despise when he put it outside.

Only here he would laugh like that.

Elder Brother Wang put down the work in his hand and picked up the flower tea in his hand.

"I remember you're still grounded for reflection?"

Cayton tensed.

He hates grounding, yes, but he hates being stubborn even more, and he hates the person who gave the grounding order, so during this time, anyone asks about the grounding, and Kai has to show a rebellious look that doesn't care, even if he is unhappy.

But the eldest brother Wang ......

In front of Brother Wang......

Kai, who is usually sharp and splendid, stammered rarely:

"Uh, yes, yes, in fact, I, I'm here today to talk about this, that, although it's only a short night, but I think, uh, I feel that my reflection has been profoundly beneficial and full of fruitful results......"

Oops, I seem to have forgotten all the drafts I prepared last night.

I knew I wouldn't tease the maid last night, so I didn't have time to memorize the manuscript.

Kai felt his little brother aching for a moment.

But Kai didn't need to say any more, because Elder Brother Wang showed a look that saw through everything, and glanced sideways with a smile on his face.

Kai stopped instantly.

Elder Brother Wang sneered.

Horace's sneer was a sign that he was in a bad mood and wanted to scold,'s sneer was tinged with condescending contempt, and Bank's sneer was infuriatingly stupid.

But this action seemed clear and natural to Elder Brother Wang, and there was nothing unpleasant about it.

So Kai had no choice but to surrender.

Sure enough, Elder Brother Wang crossed his fingers and said:

"So you're going to explain to me the truth about how you were grounded by your father?"

Kai was about to explain, but heard his brother add another sentence:

"I mean...... Besides taking off your clothes and 'discussing poetry' with the beautiful ladies and ladies?"

Brother Wang's expression was very serious when he said this, but his left eyebrow twitched slightly.

Oh my.

Listening to his brother's playful gaze, Kai felt like he was going crazy.

He really wanted to find a hole to get into!

That's great!

He roared wildly in his head......

Is there any person in the whole world of Errol who is in the middle of nowhere, who does not know this secret?

And he asked, Who else?

Who else!

Come out!

Come out......

Let me tell you!

Just as Kai was immersed in his "Kessel's little world of self-esteem", a sudden commotion came from outside the window, attracting the attention of the two.

Only one scream sounded, what seemed to be a maid:

"Your Royal Highness, Your Highness Princess, wait a minute!"

Kai was shocked!

Embarrassed, he immediately found an opportunity to change the topic on the donkey, rushed to the window, and pointed out the window exaggeratedly:

"Wouldn't you, you brought Connie out of the palace?"

Brother Wang shrugged, obviously understanding his purpose, but he didn't say much.

Kessel stuck her head out the window, and saw a girl dressed strangely, as if between two pieces of cardboard, on the roof of the side of the Mindith Hall, running happily on the roof.

She nimbly weaved through a pair of arms that tried to stop her, ignoring the earthy expressions of the attendants and guards behind her.

The girl was about eleven or twelve years old, with a delicate face, long flowing hair, barefoot, fluttering dust, and a joy and madness all over her body, in stark contrast to the despair and fear of the others.

"Don't worry, this is the latest version I've improved based on the classics, 'Connie's Sixth Wing', there will be no problem, you can just watch how I fly against the wind-"

The girl shouted with vigour, and her voice was shrill and high, and the whole Mindith Hall could be heard clearly from the manor to the courtyard.

She also attracted more and more guards, many of whom were panicked royal guards who didn't know much about the girl.

The girl ran wildly, flapping two pieces of cardboard as she saw her get closer and closer to the edge of the roof.

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, don't do it!"

In the heart-rending wails of the maid and the incredible screams of the guards, the girl jumped out of the roof towards the sun!

"Ahhh

She shouted excitedly, fluttering her arms, her long hair flowing, and her skirt fluttered slightly:

"I'm going to fly—"

In the next second, the girl drew a wonderful parabola in the air, and then went straight to ......

Fell.

Falling into a grove of trees.

After a crackling of branches, a stunned Kai finally heard the terrible muffled sound:

Boom!

Kai shuddered violently, shrunk his head back, and his facial features were squeezed into a heap.

Look......

It hurts.

The maid's hysterical screams resounded in the Mindis Hall again:

"Ahhh

"Her Royal Highness the Princess, Her Royal Highness the Princess has fallen again and again!"

Then another large crowd of people rushed downstairs.

The footsteps are quite impressive, comparable to a drum band.

After seeing all this, the frightened Kai retracted his head from the window with difficulty, and finally straightened his lips and showed an ugly smile:

"You, don't you really care?"

I don't know when it started, Elder Brother Wang resumed his posture of handling government affairs again, unhurriedly, unhurriedly and unexpectedly, he looked at a page of warrants, and sighed:

"What's the matter?"

Kay pointed to the window and smiled ugly, as he saw both Molian and Rogo hurrying to the scene.

"Hmm, about 'how do we stop our trouble-breaking little sister from destroying Mindis Hall'?"

Elder Brother Wang snorted, revealing the eyes that he had been pranked by him when he was a child.

"Don't be afraid. ”

"Eda will take care of her. ”

Don't be afraid.

Hearing this, Kai was in a trance for a moment, a little nostalgic for the past.

But...... What did my brother say?

Eda?

Right now.

"Ahhh

As if to confirm his brother's words, another short and slender figure flew out of the window in a fuss, with a heart-rending and earth-shattering cry:

"No, no, no, no, no, Xiao Ni, you must not have anything to do!"

Boom!

There was another muffled thud, and several guards were knocked into the air, including Mollian.

Kay's cheek twitched again.

"Well, good Connie, wake up, wake up! Well, as long as you wake up, I won't call you bad Connie again!"

The brothers have heard it since they were children, and it is said that the old stubborn father and grandfather have also heard it since childhood, and it is said that the old stubborn father and grandfather also heard the big terrifying voice from childhood, with a tragic sense of heroism, as always, and loudly resounded in the sky:

"You don't want to die......, ahhhh Woowoo...... I'm sorry for you...... If you're still alive, wake up, wake up......"

Kai leaned against the window, watching the cloaked figure below shake something violently, and the corners of his mouth began to twitch unconsciously.

The surrounding royal guards and maids were about to step forward in panic, but they were thrown out one by one by the cloak.

"Ahh

A few seconds later, a girl's peculiar, soft, glutinous voice screamed, and then it sounded from weak to strong:

"Ahem, Ada, you seem to ...... Hold my boobs down...... Ahh

The voice was particularly aggrieved.

The surrounding royal guards seemed to be scalded by boiling water, and they turned around one after another, and returned to their posts as if nothing had happened.

Kai sighed.

Sure enough, the terrifying voice that was still crying a second ago sounded, with a special sense of surprise:

"Woo, huh——?"

"Ahhh......h

The soft girl's voice was weak:

"Seriously, the book says it's going to stunt ......"

Kai looked at the scene under the window, then at his brother, who was still calm behind the desk, and pressed his forehead weakly.

Well, yes, Edda is also here, then she will definitely take good care of Constance......

It's weird!

Kai hissed silently in the depths of his heart.

He suspected that half of his little sister's "abnormal activity" was infected by the out-of-tune cloaked dwarf!

Kai reluctantly left the window and walked back, resuming his glass.

But the voice of terror—Eda howled again:

"Woo woo Woo Nie I won't leave you again! By the way, do you want to eat chicken legs? Hot, oh, open your mouth! I'll tell you a little secret I just overheard, don't tell ...... out."

"That...... Eda...... It's mine...... Mimi ......"

"Well, do you know why your little brother was grounded because he was ...... under the covers with thirty bare-women"

Burst!

Kai squirted a gulp of wine on the carpet and choked violently.

What a I am!

I shouldn't have come today!

"You know Connie. ”

As if he didn't see Kai's embarrassment at this time, Elder Brother Wang sighed to himself:

"She's lonely, lonely, longing to be noticed and recognized. ”

Kai, who was coughing incessantly and immersed in "Kessel's little world without self-esteem", was stunned when he heard this.

He looked up and met his eldest brother's gaze.

And at this moment, Elder Brother Wang's eyes are different from usual, not only gentle, not only tolerant, not only comforting.

And something else.

The elder brother said faintly, "So she desperately wants to do something." ”

"And we all know that feeling. ”

"We should also understand. ”

Kai was silent.

He opened his mouth to say something.

But the elder brother's eyes were straight to him.

It's as if I saw through everything.

So Kai lowered his head.

After a while, the movement outside the window finally stopped, and Kai straightened his breath and let out a long sigh.

"Thanks to that old stubborn," he snorted, clasping his arms together, his tone full of deliberate resentment:

"For more than ten years, it's like he doesn't have this daughter. ”

Elder Brother Wang was silent for a while.

"Don't blame our father. ”

After a while, the always gentle brother came up with this sentence.

This is unusual.

If he changed to Pingsu, Kai would not usually argue with him, because what Elder Brother Wang said was generally not wrong, and even if he was wrong, it was reasonable.

But today, especially after being looked at by the other party with that strange look, Kai suddenly felt like a fish in his throat, and he didn't vomit unpleasantly.

"Father?"

He turned his back to his brother and sarcastically said, "What kind of father would hate his own children?"

Brother Wang snorted.

This time, his words were a little more serious, with a rare sigh:

"That's not hate. ”

"My father was hit hard by my mother's death...... You know, when he sees Constance, he thinks of his mother and the pain she was suffering when she died. ”

Kay's expression darkened.

Mother......

Is that so?

The elder brother sighed:

His deep love for his mother turned into torture and a burden in the face of Connie. ”

"As deep as love is, so heavy is that torture and burden. ”

"It's for her good that her father stays away from Constance...... Because he is afraid that when he thinks of his love, he will become unaware of himself. ”

When he said the last few words, it seemed that even the elder brother himself was distracted.

Kai gritted his teeth and shook his head with a sneer:

"Love?"

"Well, it doesn't get any more ridiculous than that—he knows that if his mother sees him treat Connie like this, she'll fight him. ”

Just like she protects us, protects all her other children.

Brother Wang didn't answer immediately, and the room was silent, and even the sound of turning pages and writing was missing.

"Yes," Kai heard the eldest brother say slowly at a very slow pace:

"She will. ”

It occurred to Kay that not only Connie, but what would the mother think if she saw that her beloved sons had also come to this point, hating each other and beware of each other?

Every time he thought about this, Kai's heart tightened.

Elder Brother Wang sighed deeply, and then resumed his gentle and kind tone:

Therefore, the responsibility of caring for her sister can only be borne by her brothers for the time being. ”

Elder Brother Wang patted the back of his neck, as if to soothe his muscles and bones.

Kai patted his head and pulled himself out of his abnormal state.

Well, forget about those bare-women......

Forget it......

Forget it......

"By the way, I got you a job. ”

Elder Brother Wang's words surprised Kai, and he immediately forgot about the bare-woman.

He turned his head suddenly, and the expression on his face was wonderful:

"Work, work?"

Kai almost thought he had misheard.

But the elder brother just nodded kindly.

"After all, my father confessed before leaving, in any form, what you need is 'introspection' - you don't want him to be angry when he comes back, do you?

Kai's heart jumped.

The old stubborn?

Is there such a sentence in the original sentence?

"Let that garbage settle down" or "Get him out of my sight"?

Are you kidding!

As the prince of the stars, do you still have to work?

Well, Horace led a group of big soldiers, Bank was an honorary director of the National Research Society, and even was named a royal envoy......

Counting it, he did have some ...... Well......

Thinking of this, Kai's face immediately changed, and he said seriously:

"Oh, work! You know, I'm going to do that......"

Kay scratched his forehead in pain, looking for an excuse:

"Actually, I was going to leave the city for Fort Starlake in a few days, and John told me he needed help there......"

But Elder Brother Wang just shook his head gently, and his expression showed a little remembrance.

"The anniversary of John's loss of his wife has arrived. ”

One sentence choked Kai's excuse in his throat.

"Now is not a good time to disturb our Uncle Wang. ”

The Fifth Prince was dumbfounded for a few seconds.

In the end, Kai touched his head in annoyance, looked at his brother innocently, and was aggrieved:

"Wait, you're really here, you're not going to let me fool around, are you?"

The elder brother smiled, but he was still as soft and amiable, so that people couldn't afford to have the idea of rebellion.

"Relax, it's in Yongxing City," Elder Brother Wang pinpointed out a stack of papers from the mountain-like pile of papers and threw it to him far away:

"Xicheng Alert Hall, you go to help maintain order in the West Ring District, Xiacheng District, and West City Gate. ”

"This or grounding, choose the same for yourself. ”

Kai slapped himself on the head.

Well, there was no hole, at least he didn't touch it.

But......

Kai rubbed his face in pain, and his whole body drooped like a wronged puppy.

Oh no, he's annoyed now when he hears "vigilant officer" or something about it.

But he quickly stared:

"Wait, West Loop?"

Isn't that ...... Where is Hongfang Street located?

A gleam flashed in Kai's eyes!

Elder Brother Wang nodded, with an interesting smile and a sincere look in his eyes:

"Rest assured, it is a prosperous and lovely, beautiful and colorful place, and if you go there to work and 'reflect', it can be regarded as following the king's decree, at least you don't have to really be grounded. ”

Of course!

Kai's expression changed instantly, becoming serious and focused, just like he was facing the girl's dress:

"Well, yes, you have a point...... Ahem, I don't like to be grounded, and this is also an opportunity for me to make a good tour and get to know our city and serve the ......kingdom as a vigilante or other public servant."

Especially Hongfang Street.

Brother Wang smiled again, and smiled softly.

It gave him a sense of relief.

Kai pretended to be serious and flipped through the information in his hand, thinking about how to first make sure that Hongfang Street was within the scope of work, and then change his attitude without losing face and grasping this welfare position.

"I informed one of the officers of the guard there, who just needed an assistant," the brother said softly.

"She also promised me that she would take good care of you. ”

Kai pondered the affairs of Hongfang Street, and nodded absentmindedly:

"Well, that's thoughtful......"

Officer, staff, assistant, promise, care......

Wait a minute.

Kay's brain flashed!

He simply ignored the other words that made him unpleasant, leaving the more important parts.

"She?"

Kai raised his head suddenly, and his eyes lit up:

"You mean a lady?"

Elder Brother Wang nodded gently and smiled.

"Miss, to be exact—unmarried, and her family doesn't care about her. Elder Brother Wang tapped the table with his fingers, his face was complicated, and there was a slight hint that Kai couldn't read - it didn't matter, anyway, except for eating, drinking, and having fun, Elder Brother Wang generally didn't understand much.

And the elder brother will definitely not harm him.

And most importantly......

Miss...... Miss!

It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you're married!

Kay was tempted to say that.

But he has to be reserved.

Ahem, yes, reserved.

Kai endured his excitement and told himself that his appearance should not be too obvious and ugly, after all, Elder Brother Wang is a serious person.

So take it one step at a time......

"Is she pretty?" Kay flashed his starry eyes.

Elder Brother Wang smiled again.

I saw his eldest brother against his chin, recalled thoughtfully, frowned slightly, and then bowed his head slightly:

"Very beautiful. ”

At that moment, Kai's eyes almost radiated the light of faith.

The elder brother is a believer and has never lied to himself.

Yes!

Elder Brother Wang crooked the corners of his mouth, continued to chuckle, and pounded him:

"Bingxue is also smart and empathetic. ”

Oh my God.

That's great!

Honorable, handsome, and great His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you are truly my own brother!

If it weren't for the table, I'd love to kiss you!

The resistance and boredom that Kai had a minute ago seemed to be gone, and he felt as if he had soaked in the most wonderful hot springs.

"When are you going to start working, can you do it now?" he blinked, his eyes shining

Elder Brother Wang smiled again, and his smile became more and more cute.

He tore down a note and wrote down an address and person's name:

"Xicheng Alert Hall, go directly to Officer Bakvi - don't bring an attendant. ”

Of course, of course.

Kai no longer pounded garlic, but nodded like an avalanche.

This kind of good thing, how can it be cheap Val's rough man and Kanna's fool.

"By the way. ”

Elder Brother Wang wrote, and there was a sense of nostalgia in his tone:

"That young lady was very charismatic. ”

"Don't fall in love with her...... You will suffer. ”

Hey.

Falling in love with her?

Kay impatiently took the note, and in a skillful spiral dance, spun around in place, facing Middil.

You're so worried, with a veteran like me......

Kai stretched out his hand and waved, and walked backwards out the door with a confident smile:

"You know I won't. ”

Elder Brother Wang still had that reassuring smile, and waved his hand at the ridiculous:

Hurry up and go.

Kai's figure vanished.

But a few seconds later, his palm reappeared by the door.

"Hey, Middil. ”

Kai, who had gone and returned, stood outside the door, probing the door frame to make the eldest brother who was buried in the case look up again.

"Huh?"

Kai patted the door frame lightly and said hesitantly:

"Thank you. ”

Midier in front of the desk raised his eyebrows, put on a helpless look, and shrugged his shoulders:

"Ha, who made this a father's order......"

But Kay shook his head.

"No, I mean ......"

Kai grabbed the door frame and twisted it, looking a little embarrassed.

"Thank you. ”

"For ......"

But he finally took a deep breath, shook the note in his hand, and unconsciously pointed in all directions:

"Everything. ”

"Thank you. ”

Thank you.

Brother.

Thank you for tolerating me when everyone hated me.

Bear with me.

Take care of me.

Care for me.

Understand me.

Midil Bright Star.

Thank you.

Thank you for being my brother the moment I was born.

Forever.

After saying his words (though mostly in his heart), he bowed his head and rubbed his nose wrongly, he was a little unaccustomed to doing so.

Some didn't even dare to look at Middil's eyes.

It's not just because of fear......

It's all the more because ......

But Brother Wang laughed again.

This time, Midil smiled softly, which could be described as very small, but there was clear emotion in his eyes.

"Oh. ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Stars nodded, leaned back in his chair, and curled the corners of his mouth with peace of mind:

"Of course. ”

Kai smiled and pursed his lips.

He knew, the same as before.

My brother understood.

He grimaced, knocked on the doorframe, and disappeared before Middil's eyes.

Seeing the young brother leave with a smile, Midir, who wanted to stop talking, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Also, stop talking about poetry!" said the crown prince gently but firmly.

In the next second, the hallway outside the door was filled with the sound of human bodies and wood striking, accompanied by Kai's hissing in pain.

Midil chuckled and shook his head.

In the distance, Connie and Edda chirped.

Young people.

The crown prince raised his head, looked out the window at the warm sun full of life, and breathed in the fresh air.

It's like a morning in Mindeth Hall.

Wonderful, bright and carefree.

It's like this.

Forever.

After feeling the relaxing and wonderful morning, Midil came back to his senses, looked down and sighed, and returned to reality.

Return to the shackles he will never be freed from.
