After seeing Dili off, it was already close to midnight.
But unfortunately, for Lux, now is not the time to rest.
"Karya, do you think Dili is trustworthy?" Lux sat on the bed, holding a sword in his hand, "To be honest, I don't find anything wrong with him..."
"I didn't find it either." Kalya's answer was somewhat beyond Lux's expectations. She originally thought that Kalya could find something that she hadn't discovered. "In other words, compared to Cordola, this guy's level is quite high."
It's more than a little bit higher - at least he has positioned himself correctly."
"Very straight?" Lux was stunned for a moment, then blinked in confusion, "You mean, his attitude when facing me?"
"Yes, it is at this point." Kalya affirmed, "He wanted to take refuge in you, so he maintained the greatest degree of sincerity from beginning to end, not caring about exposing his shortcomings. This kind of loyalty is liked by all superiors.
quality."
"But to be honest, I don't like it very much." Lux shook her head, "I know his behavior may lead to a pretty good result, but I always feel that what he wants is not this result, but something else.
.”
"Your feeling is correct, but your statement is very problematic." Kalya sighed helplessly, "I have said that you should be realistic when dealing with others, and you should not be free to testify - whether it is for praise, rewards, or power and status.
People who do good deeds are always good people, and they don’t care about their deeds!”
"...But I can feel that his heart is not here."
"When it comes to your heart, you can only talk about yourself." Karya said earnestly, "And if there is someone who agrees with you in terms of deeds and heart, then he will be of the same mind as you - such people are in the minority after all."
"...Yes." Kalya's words made Lux a little depressed, but she quickly thought of her friend, shook her hair, and quickly cheered up, "Not everyone can be like Sona.
!”
"So, have you figured out your next plan?"
"I need to contact the demon searchers and mobilize some of the garrison..." Lux stretched, "But I think my uncle should be sending people outside to keep an eye on me now, right? Come to think of it,
I'm a little surprised, if Di Li comes to me so directly, won't he bring trouble to himself?"
"Who knows?" Kalya's tone was nonchalant, "He should have made his own preparations. Rather than that, you now need to think about yourself - how to deliver the news."
"I've thought about this a long time ago!" Lux chuckled upon hearing this, "How about a drunken brawl among the guards?"
"...It's really unlucky to be your bodyguard." Kalya was dumbfounded. "Throwing my own bodyguard into prison to deliver the message - I really belong to you, Lux!"
"Then what should we do?" Lacus spread her hands and looked helpless, "Isn't this what you taught me well?"
"Yeah, that's right." Kalya said in a pleasant tone, "You learned well."
"Karya, you are so shameless!"
"Each other..."
……………………
On the other side, just after Dili returned home, the servants of the Cordoula family came to the door overnight and invited him to visit the manor.
Dili, who had been prepared for a long time, put on a sad face and followed the servant.
Soon, Dili met this energetic old man in the study of Cordola Manor.
Different from the "righteous words" and "informal manner" when facing Lux, when she saw Dili, Cordora put on a straight face and did not hide her disdain for him at all.
If Lux were here, she would definitely realize it.
No wonder this bad old man acted aggressively before, because he is the one who is "self-conscious about his status and rigid about etiquette"!
"I heard that you went to visit Lux alone?" Reaching out to touch the gold button on her chest, Cordola raised her face slightly, "So impatient?"
"I--"
Dili raised his head in embarrassment as if he had been caught with a sore leg, but after meeting Cordola's eyes, he quickly turned his head away, closed his mouth, and stopped talking.
"It's just some stupid tricks!" Cordola snorted heavily, and the gold button hit the desk, making a dull crisp sound, "Lux came to Mithril City with a mission, not
If you are here to relax and entertain yourself, put your dirty thoughts to rest!"
"I don't have any small thoughts!" Di Liwu insisted to himself, "I just hope that Gao Kan can learn more from her and learn the aristocratic etiquette of Xiongdu——"
"Learning etiquette?" Kodola stood up, grabbed a "Encyclopedia of Etiquette" from the bookshelf, and threw it directly on Di Li's face, "Then tell your little brat to read more and don't do it.
Heaven is attracting bees and butterflies in Mithral City!"
"Encyclopedia of Etiquette" accurately hit the target, and the hard cover even made a cut on Di Li's forehead, and blood flowed down.
It was at this time that the servants from Cordola's family hurried over to bring Cordola the latest news from the hotel.
"Miss Laxana's guard seemed to have drunk too much, and got into a fight with several drunkards who drank together at the banquet. Even the garrison was dispatched to barely separate them."
After hearing the news, even though he was a mature Cordoran person, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Where are the people now?"
"I heard that he was taken away by the city defense troops to 'calm down'."
After hearing the news, Cordola finally twitched the corner of his mouth and left the sentence "disgraceful to the family". He left the servants to deal with Dili's wounds, and he shook off his sleeves and left the study.
When Di Li returned to his home again, his forehead had been wrapped with a layer of gauze, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
Seeing his father being beaten like this, Gao Kan almost ran away on the spot - however, after shooing away his servants, Di Li couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Why are you laughing?!" The anxious Gao Kan almost thought that his father had been beaten stupidly, "This is what happened, and you are still laughing——"
"I laughed at that idiot Cordola." Dili snorted disdainfully after laughing enough. "Not only was he completely seen through, but he also did me a big favor."
"???"
"A wise leader always has clear rewards and punishments." Di Li slowly pulled off the gauze and pointed at the wound on his forehead, "Look carefully and study hard - this is not a wound, this is clearly a medal!"
Gao Kan blinked.
"This is no joke." Seeing that his son didn't seem to believe it, Di Li sighed softly, "This wound is comparable to a medal earned by fighting the barbarians in the north."
"You don't have to be like this." Gao Kan gritted his teeth, "That old man, I can handle the trouble I caused."
"Don't worry, I know what I know." Dili smiled and patted his son on the shoulder, "I just deliberately let that idiot Kodola trouble me, otherwise I wouldn't have to go to Miss Laxana.
Riding on that white horse and swaggering through the city - Cordola thought I still wanted to use nepotism, but in his heart, I only had this ability."
"..."
"What a pity, my respected Uncle Kodora seems to have forgotten that before marrying your mother, I was the youngest ranger captain in Mithral City!" Having said this, Dili finally clenched his fists, "And Kodora
La... who is he? Except for the surname of the Crown Guard, he is nothing!"
It was rare to see Gao Kan like his father, and he was completely stunned.
"Okay, you can go back and go to sleep." Di Li seemed satisfied with his son's expression, smiled and patted his shoulder, "Your mother and I are also going to have a rest - don't you want to have a sister?
What?"
In this way, under his father's unabashed teasing, Gao Kan finally ran away.
Looking at his son's back, Di Li shook his head helplessly - he was quite confident in his son.
Until he met Lux.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Thinking of this, Di Li smacked his lips helplessly - it's really hard to compare people to each other, and you have to throw away goods to compare!
It seems that the education of my son is not strict enough...
Otherwise, send him to the army for training?
Well, let's forget it - I put in so much effort just so that I don't have to work hard in the army!
Anyway, after this incident, my family will have to go to Xiongdu sooner or later.
Dili shook his head and no longer thought about these problems, whistled and returned to his room happily.
