this king; that king

The two walked around for a long time, and it was already noon when they returned to the pier. The second prince asked Jin to wait for him, and told Jin not to run around, before going to the dock to find the administrator.

Jin looked around, the noon sun scorching the blue sea with little lights, and one or two boats appearing and disappearing, it couldn't be more peaceful.

He was about to sit down comfortably and rest for a while, when he suddenly saw two familiar figures squeezing through the crowd at the end of the market.

"Yan! Wan!" He greeted.

"Yo!" Wan waved at him, seeming to be a little lethargic, while Yan on the side didn't say a word.

"How did you come out?" Jin ran forward excitedly.

"Don't you know...?" Wan asked in surprise.

"What... know what?"

"The king transferred some nobles to remote places, including our father, and we wanted to go with him, so we made an appointment to find some souvenirs from the capital in the market." Yan replied.

I was shocked, Yan Hewan, are you going to be transferred?Want to go to an unfamiliar place?How come no one ever told him?Who, who did it?Is it father?Why?What should he do?

"When are you... leaving?" Jin asked with a little trembling, lowering her head.

"Tomorrow." Yan replied.

Jin nodded fiercely, and hastily and seriously promised: "You wait for me, I will send you souvenirs tomorrow, and I will send you away properly!"

"By the way... I want to tell you one thing, don't be afraid..." Yan said.

Jian Jin nodded, with a tense and serious look, and said slowly and calmly: "Actually... I have a person I like. I came to buy her a maid's clothes and disguised myself to take her away. .”

"Whose Miss?" Jin asked.

"No, she's a civilian."

Jin Jian Wan looked calm, it seems that she already knew.

In fact, Jin had long expected that this might be the case, because Yan had never shown any interest in anyone, and had never talked about this topic, which meant that she had never been tempted by others, but she never thought that she would tell the truth at this time. Own.

"Bon voyage, please contact me at any time." I know that existence is reasonable, even if nobles and commoners are not allowed to intermarry, she just fell in love with someone, which is nothing more than normal, he gave Yan Hewan a hug, and the two waved goodbye to him .

Watching the two leave, Jin's nose was sore, tears filled, but he held back, stretched out his hand to wipe his eyes, his expression had become calm when he raised his head, he looked in the direction of the castle, and squeezed his fist.

"Your Highness, listen to me, Ms. Wan and Ms. Yan..." Seeing Jin return, the light bulb immediately handed over water and reported.

"Are you leaving?" Jin took a sip of water in a muffled voice and whispered, "I met them at the market."

The light bulb stopped talking, he took the cup and returned with a cup of black tea.

Jin paused for a while, staring fiercely at his eyes, the cold light in his eyes was extremely sharp, as if it could pierce anyone: "I heard that the father knew that I often went out secretly to do this?"

The light bulb probably didn't know how to answer, so he didn't say anything, reached out to grab his belt, and used all his strength to cleanly pick off the two thick jade plates on top, with a very small sound, he The nails were bent out of the crease.

Feeling the pain, he covered his nails, and the light bulb rushed forward immediately: "What is your Highness going to do?!"

"Bulb, do you still remember the result of my spell appraisal?" I asked.

Bulb remembered, Jin did a spell appraisal shortly after entering school, and the result was "all elements can be cultivated, but can only be maintained at an average level". , but it really didn't make much progress.

"I'm a waste, that's right." I placed the jade board squarely on the table and picked up the carving knife. "If I pour all my mana into this place, I should be able to carve the words Yan and Wan. Besides, what do I say?" The spells are all made, and luck is involved, maybe it will be done soon."

The light bulb looked at Jin chiseling down hard one by one, the hand holding the carving knife was crowded red, and the other hand was firmly pressing the jade board, motionless.

Since I was 12 years old, I haven't worked too hard in school. His own explanation is "it's easier not to cherish what you have", but because of his nature, he still has more advantages in history and literature, and when it comes time to work hard He was so depressed at the time, because it was difficult to calculate the flow of spells, he chose literature, but he had a place in the high ranking list.

The light bulb doesn't know where Jin's tenacity comes from. What's more obvious is that Jin is very jealous, but he hides it in his heart and refuses to say it, and he has never done anything excessive to others.He discovered that others could do arithmetic, and secretly learned a little, and discovered that others could play the piano, and secretly learned one or two.Several times Bulb saw him stare at his own face in the mirror for a long time, because he was jealous of other people's looks, but he was never able to do anything about it.

It was very late at night, the light bulb was sitting on the chair drowsy, but Jin was still staring at another jade board under the faint light, slowly peeling it bit by bit.

"Hey, you said that if you control the water to hit it, will the engraving be better?" Jin suddenly raised her head and asked in a slightly hoarse voice that had been silent for a long time.

"Maybe, as long as His Royal Highness can control it steadily," Bulb replied, "I'll go get water."

But the day failed, there was no water anywhere in the castle, even the spare water tank in the kitchen was dry, and the light bulb had to be turned back into the room.

"Then there is no other way." Jin raised the knife, made up his mind, bit his arm with his head sideways, and slashed down on his wrist.

Jin's tears kept flowing because of the pain, and the sobs that were deliberately blocked were thin and weak. Bulb immediately stood up, staggered, stretched out his hand to grab the bandage and hemostatic medicine, and stepped forward to bandage it: "Your Highness, why is it always a piece of blood?" Muscles!"

"I can't help it, I'm just stupid." Jin smiled helplessly, using a water control technique to gather blood droplets, extract the water into water droplets, and turn it into a small water knife to continuously wash back and forth against the jade plate.

Busy until three o'clock, Jin finally lifted up two exquisitely carved jade boards, moved his sore hands and said, "Yo! It's done!"

Seeing this, the light bulb immediately snatched the jade plate and put it on the table, covered it with a cloth, and then pulled Jin to the bedside: "Okay! Go to bed quickly, or according to your temperament, you will keep looking at those two pieces." Yuban until early in the morning!"

The next morning, Jin woke up early, his head ached from lack of sleep, his hands were limp and weak, but he still changed his favorite clothes extremely quickly, and carefully inspected the jade carvings .

"Bulb, I'm sorry to disturb you...can you take me directly to the pier?" Jin asked lightly to wake up the light bulb.

"No, His Highness's magic power is not enough, I can only teleport from the room to the outside of the palace wall at most." The bulb looked at Jin's bright eyes, but there was nothing he could do.

Jin's eyes dimmed, but he cheered up and said: "It's okay, you can just send me out, I will run to the pier by myself."

"Your Highness, be careful." Bulb opened his mouth and reached out to the kitchen to get a piece of bread and watched Jin eat it before sending Jin into another passageway.

"I'll be back in about an hour, remember to pick me up at the city wall!" Jin reminded.

After finishing speaking, Jin slid out of the passage, but the situation outside the city wall was not as good as he thought.

"Go!" As soon as Jin's toes landed on the ground, there was a deep and deep roar from behind.

There was a sound of footsteps from all directions, twenty or thirty guards with knives and guns rushed over, surrounded Jin, raised their weapons and aimed at his head, and the two guards behind kicked Jin to the ground with bare hands, He twisted his hands again, pulled his hair, and forced him to raise his head with pain.

Jin kept struggling, but he didn't break free. The guards' hands were like iron clamps holding him hard. He could only let out helpless wailing, and called the light bulb intermittently with the sound of spitting.

The light bulb hurriedly appeared from one side, and threw the gold piece in his hand into his arms with all his might, and shouted hoarsely while staring at his tear-filled eyes: "Go! Send it there for me! Run!"

"Yes!" The light bulb disappeared at the entrance of the passage immediately before the guards rushed forward. Seeing that the things had been delivered, he stopped struggling, relaxed and gasped for breath.

"I really don't make progress..." The old king stepped forward and gave Jin a resounding slap unceremoniously.

"Take it back to the room." The old king ordered.

"I won't go back!" Jin struggled, a ball of fire appeared in his hand, glared at the old king fiercely and angrily, and howled and threatened: "Let me go!"

"Are you burning?!" The old king slapped him again.

Gritting his teeth, he felt his own blood trickling in the roots of his teeth.He squeezed his fist for a long time, thinking of thousands of ways to return the pain to his father, and finally he obediently lowered his hands, weeping silently, without saying a word.

"The kindness of a woman! I knew last night that you were going to be a moth." The old king cursed coldly.

"You...know everything?" Jin didn't even catch his breath, his eyes widened, like a statue, only his heart was beating.

"Do you think the water in the castle will disappear out of thin air? Drag him down!" The old king smiled mockingly, "Come here, tell me to go on. In the future, we must pay attention to the quality education of the third prince and teach him filial piety. Otherwise, he will be married. I won’t try to bring benefits to the mother country!”

When Jin was dragged away, she kept raising her eyes and staring at the old king until his eyes were blocked by the wall.

So Yan Hewan left just like that, Jin's heart was empty, and he always felt that he would never be able to fill it up.

Kindly hear from Jason, he just grasped at straws.

The letter clearly told Jin that he went to sea to make a fortune and bought a house, please go and tell.

"You're back!" Jin, who sneaked out again, looked at the brand-new Bania mansion, and stepped forward to give Jason a hug.

"Well, I'm back! What's the matter? I don't seem happy!" Jason's warm embrace made Jin feel a shiver.

With a sore heart, Jin spoke out all the things from childhood to adulthood while crying, of course, cleverly avoiding her real background.

After listening quietly, Jason smiled, knelt down and touched Jin's head and asked, "Do you feel lonely without friends?"

Kindly nod.

"Although I don't want to say it so quickly, but..." Jason paused thoughtfully, "I've liked you for a long time!"

"Huh?!" Jin was shocked, raised his face that was flushed with tears, and couldn't believe what he heard.

"Whoever wants to marry me must not cry casually, I will feel bad!" Jason wiped away the tears of Jin, and hugged Jin in his arms.

"What are you talking about! Who wants to marry you...!" Only then did Jin react, trying to break free.

"Not good! I'm ignoring you!" Jason scolded.

"... Whatever you want!" Jin immediately replied without turning his head.

"Don't be too horny, ma'am." Jason said relentlessly.

"You are the wife!"

"Huh? No, it's called Husband."

Jin's face was burning hot, and after a long stalemate, he gently opened his lips and exhaled the word "Husband" with a mosquito-like voice.

"Huh? What are you talking about? I didn't catch it!" Jason deliberately teased him, putting his head close to Jin's mouth.

"Husband!" Jin gritted her teeth, blushed and yelled loudly at his ears and closed her eyes tightly.

So that day, Jin was so focused on lying on Jason, every day even for breakfast, she thought about bringing him an egg boiled in the palace, only then remembered that he is a rich man, and he does not lack this, bowed his head silently Laugh at your stupidity.

The eldest prince was a little restless. Seeing that Jin was smiling warmly all day, and the second prince who had been threatening the status of the crown prince did not make any big moves, he began to wonder if the two had some conspiracy. After all, Jin was already 15 years old. How should I say it? There will be a little bit of ambition, right?

So one day at dinner, the eldest prince smiled and said to Jin, "Father is really hard, being a king is too tiring."

"Of course!" Jin said with a smile, "Anyway, if I have to choose, all I have to do is idle clouds and wild cranes!"

When returning to the room, the light bulb immediately said: "Your Highness speaks without restraint!"

"I know, I know, I'm going to the North Country to get married, so I can't just say it casually," Jin said with a relaxed look, "As for what I said about Xianyun Yehe just now, I know that big brother is testing me, but that is my truth."

"Your Highness doesn't want to give up the marriage to become king?" Bulb asked.

"I don't want to!" Jin sat down on the bed, "It's so troublesome, besides, he is my elder brother, I don't want to argue with him."

The next day, Jin still secretly played with Jason, sitting on a long wicker chair looking at the blue sky and the artificial river shining in the sun.

"It's still comfortable in your home!" Jin closed her eyes and took a nap.

"Of course!" Jason replied, his hair neatly trimmed and his clothes well-cut, "but I have something to tell you."

"Speak." Jin leaned on the back of the chair.

"Don't gossip about our relationship." Jason touched Jin's head, the dazzling sunlight fell from the leaves, and Jin couldn't see his face clearly.

Jin felt a little unhappy, and he couldn't explain it clearly, that unhappiness suddenly turned into fear, and Jin felt that maybe his sense of security was too weak.

"Okay." Jin didn't ask anything, and gave Jason a warm smile. Maybe Jason had something to hide, and he couldn't make Jason feel scared.
