Chapter 25: Xiaolang's Hoof(1/3)

 Crown Prince of the Stars.

Midir Shining Star.

The... former owner of Mindis Manor?

Thales felt a slight surge of anxiety in his heart, as if he was on pins and needles.

Jinni's tone became softer:

"When Kessel was young, he often came here to hide... and relax."

until……

Jinni looked at the furnishings in the study room infatuatedly, as if she could see through time and see the past.

"This place has a different meaning to him."

Thales' eyes narrowed.

I saw Jinni looking into the void and smiling slightly.

"In fact, in terms of layout, compared to Fuxing Palace, Mindis Hall is more like a leisure place than a tightly guarded royal palace - more than one person suggested that he change the palace for safety, and even the late king asked him about it."

"But do you know how Midiel answered?"

Thales perked up his ears.

I saw Jinni looking at the place where Thales was sitting in confusion, and said a slightly ancient sentence:

"If everyone hates..."

"The palace walls are thousands of feet long, and the majestic gates are tens of thousands of feet long. How can I save my life?"

If everyone hates...

Thales chewed the sentence and frowned slightly:

"These are his exact words?"

Jinni shook her head:

"No, this is what the wise king said engraved on the silver coin."

"Midir made some changes when he quoted it, but..."

Jinni gently rubbed her wrist, her eyes soft:

"A long time ago, I don't remember the original text of Xianjun."

"I just remember how Midir handled government affairs here."

Thales said nothing.

He thought carefully about what an uncle who could say these magnanimous words should look like.

Jinni seemed to know what he was thinking and said:

"When he encounters a difficult problem, he will sit behind your desk, gently press the frown between his eyebrows, frown slightly at the corners of his mouth, remain silent, and think slowly."

Jinni looked at the desk in trance, with endless nostalgia in her eyes:

"After a few minutes, the corners of his mouth and the center of his eyebrows will relax at the same time."

"At that point, he would put his finger down and smile."

As if to echo the words, Jinni also smiled gracefully and quietly:

"Then the problem is no longer a problem."

Thales felt guilty.

But Jinni continued to speak, her tone was ethereal and dreamy, sounding like she was telling a fairy tale:

"He always finds a way out of difficult situations."

"Resolve conflicts so that everyone is happy."

"Keep things in order."

"For all... to dispel disappointment."

Jinni's voice fell.

Thales remained silent.

Both of them sat in silence, one was touching memories, the other was amazed and imagining, leaving a silent blank in the study.

After a moment, Jinni took a breath, and the expression on her face returned to helplessness and sadness, and she heard her hoarsely:

"Boy, it's not that he doesn't like you."

Thales was startled and realized that the subject of the other party's words had changed:

"He just..."

"only……"

Jinni looked steadily at the desk in front of Thales and said no more.

But Thales looked at the chair he was sitting on and thought back to the Fuxing Palace a few days ago.

[...You will never become the Duke of Star Lake...]

【because of you……】

【Not worthy.】

Thales was stunned.

He stared blankly at the desk in front of him, remembering the identity and deeds of its former owner, and couldn't help but wonder:

He, the owner of Fuxing Palace, thinks Thales is not worthy...

What exactly is it?

After a while, Thales finally came back to his senses.

He looked at Jinnie gratefully.

"Ma'am, nice to see you again."

Thales nodded and held back his unnecessary emotions:

"real."

Jinni smiled.

She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but finally closed it.

A few seconds later, Ji Ni said quietly:

"Boy, eat more and go to bed early."

"Also, although I am no longer responsible for teaching you martial arts and swordsmanship, but..."

Jinni looked at him silently:

"Remember to practice sword practice."

Thales' heart moved and he smiled softly.

"I've seen you fight."

Jinni said softly:

"good."

But the next moment, the female officer's tone became serious:

"But I don't teach you the swordsmanship of the Northland Army to turn you into a madman who sacrifices his life in battle."

Thales, who was still immersed in the soft atmosphere, couldn't help but shudder.

"Remember, you are a prince."

Ji Ni said sternly:

"No matter what you went through in the north..."

"When the battle comes, you have to raise your shield and protect yourself first!"

Jinni looked at him sternly:

"Defense, this is the first priority. Don't always think about taking risks and attacking."

As if to accentuate her tone, Jinni said in a loud voice:

"Did you hear it?"

Thales shook his head and agreed repeatedly out of habit:

"Yes Yes?"

Jinni stood up, straightened her attire, and returned to being the fierce and sassy first-class palace lady.
