Throne Steps

The object of loyalty is Saenz, and the one who should be regarded as "weakness" is also Saenz-although Saenz is not weak at all-after all, Lichen's public opinion has been completely raped.But before he was completely sure what kind of lackey he wanted to be, someone had already set an example for him.

Nie Wen, the son of the gardener in Saenz's private house.

Here is a slight digression.Because the young Saenz was too precocious and stable, the entire serving team of the mansion had prepared the strategy of "bringing children" in vain.Li Chen, oh no, it should be said that the character "Rui Sen" is the first non-relative or relative that Saenz brought home, and he is a real "ignorant" child. The servants are surprised, I feel that I can finally put the "child care" strategy into practice.Although Ruisen himself is a child who is not lively and has no status, but only because of the characteristics of "Saenz picks it up personally" and "Saenz personally tutors homework", at least he has been struggling in Saenlixili. The servants who have been there for several years have some guesses about the students in this isolated island city in their hearts.

This guess was further confirmed when they heard that three more children would come later.

In this (appearance) harmonious atmosphere, Nie Wen, who replaces his sick father to manage the garden and adorns vases with beautiful flowers in the mansion every day, has become a subtle point of contradiction.

At the beginning, Li Chen didn't notice him, although he was indifferent, he only regarded him as a person with his own personality.However, after a few times when they happened to meet face to face and were stared at meaningfully, Li Chen realized that something was wrong.

——This person has a problem.

Of course, even if Li Chen was a conspiracy theorist, he didn't focus on making up the background of this young gardener at the beginning.Anyway, working under Sarnlich, it is normal for those who "airborne" to the prince to be jealous, unwilling, suspicious, and contemptuous.It's just that Li Chen had conspiratorial theories for many years in his previous life, and he started Game Over as soon as he started; in this life, there are also many conspiracy theories, and there are still very few real opportunities to practice them.This Nie Wen was unlucky enough for Li Chen to hit the gun when he was bored.

"stop!"

Li Chen Shi Shiran stopped, then turned his head to look at the young man running not far away.

"Master Regasella." The young man had already spoken a few steps away, and he said warning words as he walked over, with a serious tone, "This Luoxuekou is the exclusive flower area of ​​His Highness, please do not trample on it."

"I just want to take a closer look." In this situation, there are generally only two types of people who will directly refute, one is a naive kid who is really ignorant of the world, and the other is purely finding fault.Li Chen belongs to the latter, but it is a manifestation of the former, "Your Highness also said that I can pick whatever I like!"

God knows that the conversation between Saenz and Li Chen was just "even the work of picking flowers and putting them in a vase is specially arranged for someone to do it" "Anyone who wants to do it can do it", but Li Chen is the least stressful when using it. .

Back then, pretending to be Su Can, borrowing Hinrik's fox to pretend to be a tiger, he did a lot of things.

Nie Wen probably didn't expect Li Chen to be so shameless, so he froze for a moment.After a while, it wasn't until Li Chen reached out to pick a Luoxue Kou that Nie Wen said forcefully, "I will report it to the housekeeper."

The butler has seen me become Saenz's aide, so it's no wonder he would tease me for such a trivial matter.Although he wasn't sure which matter Nie Wen wanted to report, Li Chen still smiled back with a victorious smile: "You do what you want."

"You..." Nie Wen's tone suddenly lowered, with a bit of dignity, "You can do it yourself."

Where is this sung?Li Chen wanted to raise his eyebrows, but what he actually did was tilt his head in doubt.

"Rigsella."

Li Chen followed the source of the sound, and saw that it was Saenz who was in the study on the second floor, poking his head out and beckoning gently.

"Your Highness." Li Chen had a brain twitch, and raised the Luoxuekou in his hand, and said with a smile, "I will pick Luoxuekou for you."

"Are you trying to keep my gardener out of work?" Saenz also laughed, "It's study time."

"Yes." Li Chen handed Luo Xuekou to Nie Wen with a look of regret, "I'd better give it to you."

Nie Wen didn't know what he was thinking. After taking Luo Xuekou, he saluted Saenz: "Good day, Your Highness. Today's flower is Luo Xuekou."

Saenz glanced at Li Chen, and then his eyes fell on Nie Wen: "You don't need to confirm this little matter with me."

"It seems that you are very leisurely."

As soon as Li Chen entered the study, Saenz immediately threw a sentence lightly.Compared with the spring breeze that he showed near the window just now, this appearance of sitting with a book and trying to smile is the real face of Saenz in Li Chen's perception.

"It's not really leisurely." Li Chen sat next to the desk as usual, and opened the medicine dictionary with a wooden bookmark.

Even if he didn't realize it at the time, wouldn't he be able to figure it out if he really became Li Chen?Originally, Li Chen was just teasing Nie Wen for fun, but Saenz insisted on interjecting a few words in the middle. Doesn't it make it clear that there is something wrong?

Sure enough, Saenz replied: "That Nie Wen, there is indeed something wrong."

Li Chen asked, "What's the matter?"

"Isn't it fun?" Saenz's attention broke away from the writing, and he glanced at him with a half-smile, "Then find it yourself."

Li Chen had nothing to do, raised his eyebrows as a response.

"Your Highness, there is one more thing I want to trouble you with." Li Chen thought again, "I seem to see that your guards have morning exercises? Do you mind arranging me to exercise?"

"Morning training?" Saenz moved his gaze and looked Li Chen up and down, the meaning was very obvious - with such a small body, are you sure?

Li Chen has been stretching his arms and legs by himself before, running at most, which is nothing compared to the real morning training.As a future soldier, Li Chen felt that it was better to make some plans for his small body.If the time comes to start a "little joke", at any rate, it won't be safe in the future, right?

"You don't have to reach that level of difficulty right away, just take it step by step." Li Chen is not stupid, how could he yell out the stupid words "No matter how hard it is, I am not afraid of it", "Just treat it as a few kids who like to join in the fun."

Saenz's half-smile expression appeared again.

Li Chen had no choice but to add shamelessly: "Well, if you really fall behind, you have to ask your guards to help bring it back hahaha..."

"I'll give you an order, starting tomorrow." Saenz wouldn't be too embarrassed about such a trivial matter, "But, what do you give in exchange?"

Didn't get over it... Li Chen bowed his head respectfully: "You order."

Saenz tapped the table back and forth with his fingers, and said, "Teach me 'Chinese'."

"...What?" Li Chen was taken aback for a moment, but then came back to his senses.A language that is independent of this world is definitely the best language for information codes.If Saenz makes up his mind to use this, it is really one of the ten thousand things that will miss.

One of the ten thousand, there is another guy who came from time travel.

Thinking up to this point, Li Chen rubbed his chin and said, "Do you need to hold a small class? Your Highness, your already trusted party members can also..."

"No need." Although Saenz wanted to investigate the possibility of the code, on the other hand, he also re-examined Li Chen.He is obviously a 12-year-old kid, but he claims to be 21 years old... Oh no, combined with a soul in his 30s, this subtle sense of disobedience is really not the slightest bit.

Li Chen only thought that Saenz had other considerations, so he didn't say much, just said "oh".There was the sound of rustling water outside the window, but it was naturally not raining on a sunny day.Li Chen was still thinking about Nie Wen, when he heard the noise from the garden, he went to the window to look for the source of the sound.

Who is it that is not Nie Wen who is spraying flowers with water magic?

Although the magic is not difficult and the amount of water is not large, Li Chen turned around and asked, "Is his matter... related to his ability to use magic?"

Saenz ignored him.

Think about it, too, Saenz has no shortage of such a servant who knows magic.Li Chen thought for a while, then smiled and said: "I see, it has something to do with his father."

Nie Wen's father had been safe in Saen's mansion for many years, but Nie Wen made a fool of himself as soon as he came.No matter what secrets there are in him, they can always be related to his father.

The art of language.Li Chen had this idea.

Saenz glanced at Li Chen this time, but the words that came out of his mouth were: "Have you finished the exercises assigned yesterday?"

Li Chen suddenly became wilted, went back to the table and changed the book angrily, and started to do his homework honestly.

Saenz has always said exactly what he should do.Before Li Chen woke up early in the morning, he was taken away by the house guards to go out for morning exercises.He was already young, and he looked thinner than children of the same age. The guards didn't quite understand what kind of existence he was in the morning training team.Of course, Li Chen is also ignorant on the surface, although he is very clear in his heart.

Saenz's house can be regarded as the equipment near the island city. It can't be said to be particularly large, but it still occupies a manor anyway.The guards said they were going out for morning exercises, but they were actually running around the perimeter of the manor, and it was impossible to leave too far away.Li Chen followed the team when he started, but after half a lap, he obviously fell behind.The team leader who led the team's morning exercise had been ordered to let the other team members run as usual, but he himself stayed to accompany Li Chen to wander slowly.

Li Chen has a set of theories, and although his physique is not too bad, it is still not a star and a half away from the team leader.Coupled with the small arms and legs, the squad leader is just walking with big strides.Fortunately, the people brought out by Saenz were not too unreliable. At least the team leader didn't urge him or show any impatient expression, and he didn't even say a word.

The team leader only acts as an invisible person, and Li Chen is also happy and leisurely.Strolling all the way and observing all the way, if it weren't for the age and appearance, it would be a bit like he was out to let the wind go.

One trotted and the other took a walk. Just after a little more than a circle, the guard team caught up with the circle.

"You go too." Li Chen finally turned his head and said the first sentence to the team leader, "I have written down the route, and I will never forget it."

The team leader thought for a while, grabbed a team member to replace him, and ran away with the team.

Li Chen looked at the team member who was replaced for a "walk", feeling helpless.He trotted and asked, "How many laps are you going to run?"

The guard replied: "Ten laps."

Li Chen estimated for a while, and said, "Take me back together on the last lap."

The guard nodded to show he understood.

So after three and a half laps, Li Chen was carried back by the guards.Li Chen knew that there was a part of the morning exercise on the school field, so he thought he would be taken there, but he was taken directly to an indoor training field.

Saenz was dressed in a light but still holy attire, standing in the middle of the field playing with a magic ball of light.

"You should practice elemental manipulation more, so as not to waste your magic talent."

Li Chen twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking of his pitifully low affinity, he really wanted to say that he was an alchemist.
