What does "I see" mean?

Xiquan returned to the room in a daze, lying on the bed trying to recall every detail of Roy's words, probably because the blessing consumed his magic power, and he fell asleep unknowingly.

The next morning, Nina brought a new schedule—his teaching time had been increased to seven days a month, basically matching Lily of the Valley.

Xiquan held the new itinerary and looked at it for a long time, and asked worriedly: "Is this ordered by His Highness?"

"Of course." Nina added with a smile, "His Highness rarely changes his decisions."

Xiquan was overwhelmed, but Nina was still in front of him. He suppressed his joy and said to Nina, "Please convey my thanks to Your Highness for me."

Throughout the morning, Xiquan was in a great mood. Sometimes he sat down and held his face to admire the itinerary repeatedly. Sometimes he pulled the two short front paws of the young dragon back and forth in the room, and finally let go of the dizzy young dragon to run. I went to the balcony to feel the weather outside, then turned and went downstairs.

The sky outside is blue, with thousands of miles of clouds, some of which are so thick that the edges are gray and black, like raging waves rolled up by the sea.

Xiquan crossed the grass and found a giant tree in the woods by the artificial lake and climbed up briskly, leaning on the trunk with his hands on his head, taking a nap as if in a fairy tale forest.

There were light footsteps approaching, he looked down and found that it was Lily of the Valley standing under the tree.

"What did you do?" Ling Lan asked with her golden cat eyes slightly narrowed.

"Huh?" Xiquan didn't react for a moment.

Ling Lan said disgustedly: "I really don't understand why Lu would..." She remembered Lu's warning in the middle of speaking, and said in a low voice, "It's so troublesome".

Xiquan was even more surprised: "What happened to Lu?"

"You still don't understand." Ling Lan said impatiently, "You can only choose one of them, don't think about riding on two boats." After speaking, she walked straight under the tree and went to the gazebo.

Xiquan stared blankly at her receding figure, thinking: Why are you stepping on two boats?

At noon, Nina brought the bad news:

Yesterday afternoon, Princess Daisy of the Kingdom of Denia was taken away by robbers in her own country while she was out for fun, and was rescued by soldiers in the Kingdom of Toust. Roy canceled Xiquan's class yesterday because of hosting Princess Daisy.

Princess Daisy was frightened, and the guards and maids under her command also suffered casualties, so they were temporarily unable to return home and had to stay in the palace for a while.

"...Due to etiquette and diplomatic considerations, during this period, His Royal Highness will accompany Princess Daisy, so all magic teaching for the next month will be postponed."

In the morning, Xiquan was still happy about the extra teaching time, but immediately wilted like an eggplant beaten by frost.

Without the excuse of teaching, how could he meet Roy and make a close relationship?

Not long after Nina announced the news, Princess Daisy came to Roy's private garden to visit Xiquan, Lu and Lily of the Valley, drank afternoon tea with them and chatted for a while before leaving gracefully.

In the next few days, as Nina said, Roy suspended the discussions with the ministers every morning, and spent almost the whole day with Princess Daisy, talking and laughing with her.

Xiquan wanted to find a chance to talk to Roy several times, but Roy either came back too late or woke up too early. Sometimes he would be awakened by footsteps in the corridor in the middle of the night, but let alone strike up a conversation, within a few seconds He fell asleep again.

One afternoon, when Xiquan came back from the sun, he heard a few maids talking quietly at the corner of the stairs. It seemed that Princess Daisy was mentioned in the conversation. When the maids saw him coming, they immediately stopped the topic Qiqi Salute him.

"What were you talking about just now?" Xiquan asked curiously.

The leading maid is Sasha, and every day when Roy comes back or leaves, she leads the maids to deliver meals or tidy up the room, she faces Xiquan and says cautiously: "We are discussing what dinner to prepare for the prince tonight. "

Knowing that she wasn't telling the truth, Xiquan didn't ask any more questions, but started another topic: "At two o'clock in the morning yesterday, I heard you passing by the corridor to His Highness's room. Did His Highness get up at that time?"

Sasha said: "It's not waking up, His Highness was still awake at that time, we are going to deliver tea and snacks to His Highness."

Xiquan frowned: "He seems to have woken up at five o'clock in the morning."

Sasha smiled bitterly and said, "No, Your Highness didn't sleep all night."

Xiquan was surprised: "Why?"

"Because..." Sasha paused subtly, jumped over and said, "Your Highness is busy with other things during the day, so all the government affairs are piled up at night. It's been like this recently."

A maid next to him said worriedly: "We are all worried that His Highness's body will not be able to hold on, but with Officer Nina around, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Xiquan understood what they were talking about just now - Roy would have no time during the day because he had to entertain Princess Daisy.

"...It will be fine." Xiquan comforted them: "Your Highness has the blood of night elves, and he will be in a better state at night than during the day. Even if he doesn't sleep at night, he will not be injured like a human being."

But in fact, he only said half of what he said - for night elves, the night is indeed more comfortable than the day, not to mention not sleeping for a few days, even months or years will not have any effect, but the premise is You need to rest properly during the day. Even an elf can't stand it 24 hours a day like Roy.

Hearing what Xiquan said, Sasha and all the maids felt relieved, thanked him one after another, and prepared to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Xiquan stopped Sasha and asked, "Has Your Highness always left early and returned late like this for more than 20 years?"

"Yes, Your Highness is very diligent." Sasha didn't understand why Xiquan asked this question, "Is there something wrong?"

"It's nothing wrong, I'm just asking casually." Xiquan said goodbye to Sasha and walked to his room.

There is nothing wrong with it. Roy is the prince of the human kingdom, and his subjects are all human beings. Human beings have been going out early and returning late at night for thousands of years. Whether it is discussing or doing anything else, it must be during the day, and Roy, as the ruling Or, in order to match the pace of ordinary humans, they must work during the day when they are more prone to fatigue.

But this is the opposite of the night elves' routine.

Elves are creatures that live on elements, and they must take in the original elements regularly, otherwise they will fall into a weak state due to the lack of elements.

For Roy, half-human blood helped him offset part of his intolerance to daytime, but at the same time, it also reduced part of his ability to recover in the dark.

It stands to reason that the two are opposite each other, and Roy should be in a balanced state, but from the current point of view, Roy does not have any fluctuations in magic power, which means that he cannot normally absorb night elements at all, and what he recovers in the night is far behind the consumption during the day .

For a while, Xiquan couldn't figure out whether the "inability to take in the elements of the night" was a cause or an effect. The only thing that was certain was that Roy had been in an extremely uncomfortable and unstable state every day for more than 20 years.

Lu and Linglan have already discovered this problem, right?That's why Suzuran proposed to help Roy sort out the magic circuit.

Xiquan scolded himself for being slow while recalling. It seemed that Roy had never been uncomfortable since he entered the palace. So did someone or an elf help Roy, or was his guess wrong?

When he got to the door, someone called him from behind, and turned around to find Nina walking towards him.

Xiquan stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"

Nina stopped three steps away from him, and asked gently: "About two weeks ago, you entered His Highness's room at night?"

Xiquan was startled, and subconsciously wanted to deny it, but Doris said that he was not good at lying, and Nina...although she usually smiles and speaks well, Xiquan feels that nothing can be hidden from her eyes.

After thinking about it, he nodded in embarrassment, and immediately explained: "I want to find His Highness—"

"Don't be nervous." Nina said with frowned eyebrows, "I will not interfere with matters that His Highness has not pursued. I just want to know what you did that night. Your Highness was in good condition those few days."

Xiquan said truthfully: "Your Highness asked me to prove the value of auxiliary magic, so I used the blessing of the spirit to Your Highness."

"Blessing?" Nina's bent eyes opened a little, her clear blue eyes fixed on Xiquan: "Has your blessing worked for His Highness?"

When Xiquan saw Nina's eyes for the first time, he instantly had the feeling of being completely seen through from the inside out, like a rabbit in the grass being stared at by a falcon in the sky, his back went numb, and his body tensed up, " Ah, of course, is there anything that doesn’t work with blessings?”

"I don't want to blame you, you've done a good job, I've never seen His Highness so relaxed." Nina narrowed her eyes again, her tone was more gentle, with a hint of temptation: "However, His Highness recently You are busy with business and have no time to rest, I believe you must be very worried about His Highness's health—"

Nina stopped, as if waiting for Xiquan to express her opinion.

Xiquan said stiffly: "...Yes, I'm worried."

"Then, if there is something that can help His Highness, you must define it, right?"

"……certainly."

Nina nodded in satisfaction and said meaningfully: "Princess Daisy is not feeling well today. Your Highness will come back early. I will ask the maids not to disturb you."

Xiquan: "?"

If I understand correctly, Nina is implying that he wishes Roy again?

Seeing his stunned expression, Nina smiled meaningfully and left the corridor.

At around six o'clock in the afternoon, Roy really came back early.

Xiquan leaned on the railing of the balcony and looked down. There was no sign of Roy's fatigue at all.

Then he still has to follow Nina's hint to help Roy?

He is obviously very tired, but he has to pretend not to be tired at all. Roy must have a strong self-esteem. What if he thinks he is meddling in his own business?

Xiquan thought of the way Roy received the blessing last time, and secretly speculated: that expression should be because he felt comfortable.

Counting all the humans and elves that Xiquan has seen together, Roy is the most elusive, as if no matter what happens to him, he will solve it easily. To be able to help such a person, to be honest, Xiquan has gained a great achievement from it feel.

He pushed the railing and stood up straight, thinking: Well, Roy needs him, and Nina acquiesces, and he is worried that he has no reason to approach Roy, and there is no reason to let go of this opportunity to win Roy's favor.
