steel horn

The snow appreciation banquet at Prince Bai Qiangwei's mansion quickly spread throughout Sun Chase City.

The white roses that had been frostbitten by the snow the day before had been quickly cut off, giving birth to clusters of perfectly soft roses, waiting for the arrival of the guests.

The gorgeous and tall ballroom has been tidied up, and Hua Jianqin is directing the robots and guards to busy arrange the band facilities, singing and dancing facilities, and self-service seats, tying clusters of flowers and ribbons, and laying out brand-new The carpets and the high ceilings are covered with countless soft light strips, which look soft and fresh when you look up.

There is still an hour, and the guests should arrive one after another.

Ke Xia led Shao Jun to look down at the wide panorama of the living room from the high railing on the second floor, while gossiping: "Uncle Iron Armor and Jasmine have already arrived in the alliance and settled down. Jasmine was recommended by Anatoly and entered Huo Ke Conservatory of Music, you can only study the preparatory course first, you have to pass the formal exam before you can go to school, but it is said that she is very talented, Anatoly also asked someone to hire a music teacher for her, the progress is very fast, and there is no problem in passing the formal exam, In her spare time, it is said that Ling Laner offered her a part-time job as an assistant. She would do some chores for Miss Ling Laner when she was free, and she could also get some student subsidies. Uncle Tiejia has already obtained it from a mech research institute of AG company. A job as a mechanic with a stable salary, living in the staff dormitory provided by the AG Research Institute, can be regarded as settled down.”

A smile appeared on the corner of Shao Jun's mouth, and Ke Xia leaned against him and said in a low voice: "I also posted messages for Ke Ye and Ke Feng, I don't know if they will come or not - but 'Ke Hua' agreed to come, I have an idea , hypnotized Ke Hua into Ke Ji, is it trying to deceive someone, after all, there should be many real Ke Ji loyalists in the court."

"Rose will be my dance partner in a while, so Ke Hua will be the first to see her. Then I will see how he reacts."

Shao Jun nodded, thinking about something in his mind, but Ke Xia on the side was on his arm and suddenly said very dissatisfied: "But I want to dance with you for the first dance!"

Shao Jun didn't take it seriously, thinking that he was acting like a spoiled child again, but Ke Xia was obviously obsessed with making trouble for him, so he said plausibly, "You promised to go back to the White Rose Palace with me, right?"

Shao Jun gave him a puzzled look, when did he promise!Ke Xia began to go over the old accounts and force his words: "I said many times that I would take you back to Bai Qiangwei, but you didn't deny it, you just acquiesced! This is the first ball that the White Qiangwei Palace has reopened in so many years! The host and his wife will hold the first dance One dance is the rule!"

Shao Jun was speechless, and Ke Xia began to denounce his conscience: "Why, do you want to say that you lied to me before? Ah, I remembered, you had a fight with me at the graduation ceremony, and then Ah Natoli said that the first time I met you was at the winter auction that year! That is to say, I went to report to the recruits, and you had already run away! When I was exiled to the mine star to eat dirt every day, you took Rodin , Estin and the others are traveling! You have long wanted to leave me!"

……

Shao Jun finally couldn't resist the condemnation contained in Ke Xia's blue eyes... Okay, let's count him as a superficial person who is obsessed with beauty.

He took a look at Hua Jianqin and the guards who had finished processing and dispersed at some point. He probably ran to the front garden to maintain order. After all, the guests arrived immediately, and only a few robots were turning around to vacuum. , only the melodious harp music played in the stereo on one side of the hall, gurgling like flowing water.

He stretched out his arms and hugged Ke Xia horizontally, walked down the wide revolving steps in a few steps, let him down, bowed slightly and stretched out his hands, making an invitation to dance.

The smooth and cheerful dance melody echoed in the hall, Ke Xia put his hand in his palm, Shao Jun wrapped his arms around his waist, and led him into the dance floor.

Ke Xia murmured to him dissatisfied: "I'm taller than you! I should do the male step!"

Shao Jun led him around, looked at him with raised eyebrows, Ke Xia finally lowered his voice: "Okay..."

Anyway, there was no one, so Ke Xia simply leaned his head on Shao Jun's shoulder, and said with a low smile, "Slow down, the rhythm of this song is slow, I'll teach you the cheek-to-cheek dance, okay?"

Shao Jun was speechless, so he could only hug him and walk slowly, as if he was accompanying a child at home.After dancing to a song, he sat down on one side of the sofa. Ke Xia stretched out his long legs and tapped the beat to the music, but one side leaned on him and simply slid down to sleep on his lap, with his blonde hair all draped Come down, he didn't wear a military uniform today, but a very formal dress with an exquisite lace scarf and a gold brooch tied around his chest. Shao Jun looked at him helplessly as he rubbed it like this, for fear that the delicate dress would wrinkle again I can only try to smooth it out for him, and the communicator rang:

"Prince, many guests have arrived. It is estimated that His Majesty will be here soon. Would you please move to the front garden? Miss Rose has arrived." Hua Jianjiu's voice.

Ke Xia lazily got up, Shao Jun tidied his clothes for him, Ke Xia took two steps forward and turned to see that he didn't keep up, asked in surprise, "Aren't you coming together?"

Shao Jun waved his hand, took an electronic paper screen and wrote a few words: "Luo Dan has something to do with me, I'll deal with it first and come over after the official banquet."

Ke Xia was a little dissatisfied, but he also knew that Rodin had always been obsessed with research, and Estin, who was lurking on Siri's side, only contacted him. After thinking that it was really boring to wait for guests in front, he also waved his hand and followed him. .

Shao Jun went back to the backyard and found Luo Dan. Since Ke Xia came back, he had re-built a private laboratory for Luo Dan in the White Rose Palace, and all the equipment needed was supplied privately from the AG company's branch in the empire.

Luo Dan was staring at Estin's body in the training cabin in a daze. When he saw Shao Jun, his face was slightly panicked: "Jun, Estin has lost contact."

Shao Jun was taken aback, Luo Dan turned pale: "The positioning failed, and the person who sent me a normal message suddenly stopped sending it. The last video he sent was just some experimental data. Later, he kept hiding, saying that he felt that their laboratory There are still some secrets, and I am still trying to find a way to get in, and I can't connect to him even if I connect to Skynet, I am very worried."

Shao Jun thought for a while, then took out the electronic paper screen: "Theoretically, if he encounters danger, he can leave the cat's body and return to Skynet, right? So maybe it's just that he can't contact, not that he is in danger."

Luo Dan said: "That's right. If you are in danger, what you lose is the mental power in the cat. The mastermind in Skynet can still recover slowly, but...it will take too long." He smiled wryly : "I finally understand Xia's feeling of knowing you to go on an adventure. I'm fed up with endless waiting."

He looked perplexed and confused: "It was my mistake. He was not interested in returning to the mortal world. He just wanted to accompany me and coax me to play...I insist on dragging him back..." He pressed his palm on the training cabin, inside The silver-haired man quietly closed his eyelashes, as if he had fallen asleep.

Shao Jun stepped forward and hugged him, Luo Dan took a deep breath and calmed down, and said in a low voice: "Don't tell others, our identities are too sensitive."

Shao Jun nodded, and Luo Dan stared at the body that had already been made, still unable to resist the fear in his heart: "I need a new identity to contact Xi Rui."

Shao Jun thought for a while and did not categorically veto it, but took out the electronic paper screen: "Wait for me to formulate a detailed plan, don't act rashly."

Luo Dan looked at him, he was still full of trust in Shao Jun: "Okay."

Shao Jun continued to write: "Don't blame yourself, he is not interested in the world, just because you are not here."

Luo Dan lowered his eyes and smiled wryly: "I was too greedy in the beginning, he had obviously fallen asleep, but I wanted to break his rest and keep him by force."

Seeing that he couldn't get out of this emotion for a while, Shao Jun had no choice but to take out the electronic paper screen and make a few plans. Luo Dan was immediately attracted to the attention, and the two discussed for a while before Shao Jun got up to come out later Discuss with Ke Xia.

He bid farewell to Luo Dan, walked out, and walked through the garden when he was suddenly stopped by a cheerful voice: "Baby Jun! We can see you!"

Shao Jun turned his head and saw Yuri smiling and jumping over to wrap his arms around his neck: "The piano team and the wine team always said that the prince has a mission for you, and you don't stay in the dormitory anymore. I wanted to thank you, help me The moonstone I bought is very good!"

Shao Jun nodded, Yuri was still very talkative: "The piano team said that you lost your voice temporarily, does it matter? Have you checked it? But it's okay, I just say you just listen!"

He put his arms around Shao Jun and murmured: "Just now the emperor came, huh! It's magnificent! They have already started dancing in front, and the prince's female companion is so beautiful! It seems that he came back with you this time? Do you recognize him?"

Shao Jun nodded, and Yuri said in a low voice: "Speaking of which, do you still remember the female companion I told you about last time? After the dance is over, I'll take you to a friendship, okay?"

Shao Jun shook his head, he had many things to do, but Yuri showed sympathy, but he still said: "It's up to you, there are many things to do in the Prince's Mansion during this time - and there are things about Kale, hey! I heard that he has been sent to I went back to the alliance for trial, and my family will be implicated in the future. I can no longer hold public or military positions... Hiss... No, my stomach hurts. I guess the cheese I ate just now is a bit lactose intolerant. Forget it, I'll go to the toilet first. , you go on duty for me first! Please, please! This is the duty attendance card!"

Yuri gave him the check-in card, and then ran away by himself.

Shao Jun shook his head helplessly, took the sign-in card and walked to the next duty station. The sound of music could be heard faintly in front of him, presumably the dance was being held, and he didn't know what the hypnotized Ke Hua would do when he saw the rose idea.

While thinking about the current situation and Estin who had lost contact, he walked through the dark bushes, but suddenly heard a familiar voice:

"Unexpectedly, the second brother is interested in coming to the dance today. I heard that the princess is getting a divorce?"

Shao Jun held his breath, hid behind a thick rose trellis, passed through the gaps between the crowded flowers, and saw Ke Ye standing there, wearing a tight black fox fur cloak, standing there Sneering, standing opposite him was Ke Feng who had been keeping a low profile for a long time.

Ke Feng's complexion was not good, he sneered and said, "Didn't the elder brother give up the throne in the end after being with the emperor for many years? Now he is interested in caring about my family affairs."

Ke Ye laughed shortly: "I just think you are ridiculous, let me guess what you are doing here, you want to see how long Ke Xia can be proud, don't you?"

"What did the emperor promise you?"

"Let me think about it, you are the emperor I value the most... I have always placed high hopes on you..."

Ke Feng's expression must have changed drastically, because Ke Ye smiled: "Guess why I know? You guessed right, because the father also said this to me. If I guessed right, you and I should be the same now. Is it the same?"

Ke Feng's figure shook, and he angrily said, "Shut up!"

"Hahaha, it's ridiculous. It's ridiculous that you still believe the crazy words that the emperor said...so immersed in the lies woven by the emperor...who is it!" Come here and punch the flower stand.

The petals on the rose stand fell one after another. Shao Jun had already quickly avoided the punch, but he was palpited by the speed and strength, and quickly turned around and fled.

Ke Feng also turned around quickly, with a gloomy expression on his face, and stretched out his hand, he had already drawn his gun: "Kill him! It's just a royal guard! Ke Xia dare not do anything!" It is already a capital offense.

Ke Ye had already said angrily: "Idiot! The holy driver is here! Don't use a gun!"

"Bang bang bang!"

Shao Jun had already quickly rolled on the ground, avoided several shots, hit the floor heavily with his hand, jumped up and jumped into the obstacle again, bang!A hand had already grasped his neck impressively, lifting him up!

How can it be!How can humans have such a speed...

Shao Jun looked at Ke Ye, who was staring at him indifferently as if staring at a dead person, before he had time to think too much, he stopped and exerted all his strength!Kick to the opponent's chest!

However, the other party did not dodge at all, stared at him coldly, and tightened the hand holding his neck.

Shao Jun only felt as if his feet had kicked an extremely hard steel plate, and the huge reaction force made his ankles hurt!But the other party did not move at all, the hand was like iron tongs, the force was huge, the neck was tightened, the whole person was lifted off the ground, and gradually suffocated, his eyes turned black for a while, and his ears roared, but those who had been trained in the arena for a long time His willpower to survive a desperate situation made him reach out and press his waist with the remaining strength, and pulled out the laser saber worn by the guard!

Swish!

Ke Ye's arm that was holding him was severely cut off by a burst of bright knife light!Gululu fell to the ground!

Shao Jun also fell to the ground hard, fresh air flooded into his lungs again, he coughed violently and panted, his ears still roaring.

But people who were startled by the gunshots in all directions were surrounded.

The bright searchlights shone here, and the snow was shining brightly. Shao Jun felt that someone was hugging him, and someone put on an emergency breathing mask for him. His roaring ears gradually began to recover, and Ke Ye was laughing: "This guard is annoying. Let me teach you a little lesson, my cousin doesn’t have to kill me as soon as we meet, it will really kill you.”

"Forgive me, Your Majesty. It's just that Prince Ke Feng and I were talking. The guard didn't know what to do. He wanted to eavesdrop and offend the royal family, so I taught him a little lesson..."

Shao Jun felt that the person holding him was holding him tightly, but his hands were trembling, his breathing was rapid, and he seemed extremely angry, and said coldly: "This is a public place, and the guards are just routine inspections. What kind of secret matter, find a secret room by yourself and say whatever you like, I can only regard someone who kills me for no reason as a provocation to the master."

Ke Ye smiled: "You don't need to make such a fuss, cousin, at worst, I'll pay you a few guards, that's all, since my cousin doesn't welcome me, I'd better go back first."

Ke Hua was talking: "I guess it was a misunderstanding. Just now I saw the fight from a distance and heard the gunshots. No one was injured, right? The two princes were not injured, right?"

Ke Ye said: "No, it was my fault for disturbing His Majesty's interest. I will go back today and go to the palace to plead guilty another day. I will also prepare generous gifts to plead guilty to my cousin."

Ke Hua smiled: "Then we really need to make amends. Is this guard okay?"

Ke Xia's face was livid, and an accompanying imperial doctor who participated in the first aid whispered beside him: "Your Majesty, your life should be fine, just enter the medical cabin for treatment."

How could there be no injuries?Obviously... Shao Jun struggled to turn his head to find the arm that rolled down on the ground, but when he moved, he felt dizzy in his head, his chest was filled with distress, his eyes went dark, and he passed out.
