After I became a real young master, I became famous for my bad behavior

of course not.

Sheen glanced out the window and saw carriages loaded with servants lining up to drive into the yard.

After the servants got off the carriage with their luggage, they formed a large square under Louis' command and then entered the castle one by one.

It seems that this method of provoking others is effective.

"Lord Haines came to visit."

The servants sent by the Duke were quite efficient:

The originally empty corridors were decorated with artworks and the marble handrails were polished to a shine.

The murals on the walls were also given a new coat of protective grease and the frames were covered with new leather.

The thin, dull-colored solid wood floor was wiped spotlessly clean, and the carpet was replaced with a pattern style that the children liked.

Not only that, the Duke also bought Sheen new toys and books that Sheen could understand.

But why do these books have to be repackaged in colorful covers?

This is what Sheen couldn't figure out.

However, these "good deeds" were only to prevent the Lord from catching the Duke secretly taking back the Duke's biological child.

Improving the treatment is just to increase the Duke's reputation and pretend that Sheen has been here for a long time...

Rather, the Duke finally got it (which is the point).

Drop~

System Bunny (formerly Xien), it hurriedly reminded:

"The Lord is coming!"

Xien rolled his eyes:

Come if you want. It's a good opportunity to meet the fake young master's father.

System unlock characters:

Lord Alex Haines is the Duke's younger brother, and to distinguish their status relationship, he is called "Lord Haines".

Now Haines is under the control of Atole (Duke), and he does not have enough power to trespass into the castle that is assigned to the Duke's territory.

Before that, he must have had a long conversation with the Duke to get the chance to "meet my nephew"...

"The Lord and the Duke are equally hypocritical."

Display prompt box:

Do you really want to meet Alex? He's a tough one.

"certainly,"

Sheen nodded "yes":

I am not even afraid of the Duke, so why should I be afraid of a lord with a title but no power?

Looking through the French window at the carriage with a blue roof and a gray-white body that slowly drove into the yard, Xien's mouth curled up:

"Then let me teach you what is the orthodox Haines."

......

living room.

A tall and thin man wearing a high-end uniform, with short gray Western hair and a small mustache on his philtrum, sat upright on the sofa, facing Sheen.

Xi Lun looks more like the Lord, especially the Lord's thin appearance.

Xien (reader Jiaming) always felt that this was a kind of morbid thinness, but Xien always thought of bad things.

Compared with the Duke's radiant and triumphant appearance, the Lord can only be described as "putting on a brave face".

(Hint: The Lord has many children and played a lot when he was young)

Sheen sat obediently opposite the lord. He wanted to see the hypocritical face of the lord, who was called "Mr. Fox" by the author of "The Game of Mediation" in the novel.

……

"The illegitimate child doesn't look bad."

Alex narrowed his eyes, a foxy smirk still on his face.

The reader was heartbroken: It seems that the author’s description of “masked fox” was correct.

The lord narrowed his eyes and said politely:

"You were born to Carol, I hope you have a good time here..."

Although there was a smile on his face, the green snake eyes in the original version looked at the blond Sheen with a hunting gaze——

The look in his eyes that wanted to devour his target was exactly the same as the Duke's.

Sheen was calm: "My mother may not be favored, but she is still a duchess."

(The Haines had two duchesses (polygamous), and Sheen was born to the eldest and unfavored wife.)

"Don't be so wary of me. We are all family."

The lord's words sounded like he sympathized with Sheen's situation, but the system popped up a prompt box.

WARNING! :

"Alex is full of bad intentions, you must be careful."

Sheen: Don’t panic, the best is yet to come.

Ta-ta-ta-ta...

Louis carefully carried the tray, which contained two empty cups, a toy hourglass, and an ornate teapot.

The butler placed them on the small coffee table...

The teacup was deliberately not filled with tea, as Sheen had requested.

After finishing everything, Louis bowed to the two of them and left stiffly.

"Crash..."

Sean poured tea for Alex himself, took a sip from his own cup, and then pushed the other cup in front of Alex:

"My Lord has arrived too quickly. I haven't prepared anything to entertain you yet. I can only have some tea."

Sheen spread his right palm upwards, pointed his fingertips at the Lord's teacup, and smiled, signaling the Lord to drink tea:

"Enjoy your meal, my lord."

"Haha, it seems that my brother was born well, and you are quite polite."

Alex picked up the teacup and drank it, keeping a fake fox smile and saying some nice words.

"Your name is Xien, right? It seems that our relationship as uncle and nephew can continue..."

Uncle and nephew? What a plausible excuse.

Xien naturally flipped over the small hourglass on the coffee table and sat back on the sofa.

Then he looked down at his legs in stockings and muttered absentmindedly:

"Xi Lun and the Lord have similar faces, and it makes me want to touch them."

After hearing this, the lord's expression was obviously not very good, but Sheen pretended not to notice.

"Sir, please tell me what you want to say. If you just want to see the beautiful scenery of the Duke's Palace, it's better not to stay here. The view is not good."

The atmosphere of greeting (chatting) was broken.

The fox mask seems a little darker.

Alex didn't want to pretend anymore.

He put down the cup, crossed his arms over his chest, and warned in the manner of a boss commanding a subordinate:

"Uncle tells you that only those who demonstrate the power of healing can inherit the title. All servants should know this rule."

The rule for Haines's successors is: orthodoxy first, seniority second.

“Disrespecting orthodoxy is a serious crime, but you beat Haines’ orthodox bloodline?

Why do you do this? "

As he said this, Alex crossed his legs.

Like Xi Lun, he looked down on Xien from the bottom of his heart.

If it were Yuan Xien, he would probably say sorry again and again, but in the readers' eyes, it was the villain who asked for a beating.

"Why?"

Xien continued to drink tea with his eyes closed, and blurted out without even putting down the cup,

"Because he is fake and I am real. Is that reason enough?"

The screen shows: Character 'Alex' is shaking, 'Protagonist' prestige +2...

The lord was even more embarrassed to hear this, even though the Empire said that the blond Haines was of pure blood—

But the Duke was not blond, but he still inherited the title.

Xilun is also available.

He believed that Sheen's fate would be the same as that of the dead blond Haines.

"You want to confuse right and wrong? Bastard?"

Alex emphasized the word "illegitimate child" on purpose, which made Sheen feel itchy inside.

(Complaint) I think this guy is really bored...

The Lord crossed his legs and leaned back a little:

"You actually doubt Xilun's status? His healing power is a gift from God to me..."

Sheen looked indifferently at the person sitting opposite him performing a monologue.

His sophistry is like a convicted criminal asking for a reduction in his guilt.
