Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

The meeting time passed quickly, and Chester left through the special passage without being discovered by anyone.

At night, Alex still stayed with Jinchen in the embassy.

Snow was falling heavily outside the window, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the ground. The permanently illuminated street lights were dim and clearly reflected the trajectory of the falling snow.

Alex stood by the window, staring intently at the snow.

"What are you thinking about?"

Jinchen came out after washing up and found Alex standing at the window wearing a thin shirt. He picked up the blanket on the bed and walked over, wrapping him in his arms.

"When I think about living here before."

Alex relaxed his body and leaned on the chest of the person behind him. Perhaps because the room was well heated, he spoke with a bit of warmth.

"When I studied in the military academy, many people would pay attention to my grades, because I was adopted by Isidore in the military, and my father was a very famous soldier, so I didn't dare to slack off."

"But occasionally there are times when I'm very tired and I don't dare to tell others, so I can only go out for a walk alone, or just find a corner park to rest."

His eyes gradually focused on the street lamp, and Alex was a little lost in thought. He was speechless for a long time, as if he was stuck in memories.

It wasn't until he felt a warm touch on his cheek that he came back to his senses, turned around without looking outside, and rested his chin on Jinchen's shoulder before continuing.

"Although that period was very tiring, it was one of the few good times. After graduation, I wanted to make some achievements every day and not embarrass my father. Although I often have different ideas from Isidore's idea of ​​running the military department, I I am also grateful to him, after all, he gave me the opportunity to continue studying."

"Even though I thought that under such imperial rule, the military would collapse sooner or later, I never thought about betrayal. I kept trying to save a little more through my own efforts."

Jinchen listened patiently, gently caressing the back of the person in his arms with his warm hands, his side face reflected in the light, with sharp edges and corners, and his peach blossom eyes were tender and gentle.

"Maybe it will be much better if the empire changes to another ruler in the future. Isidore is really not a qualified monarch."

"hope so."

Alex rubbed his cheek slightly against the side of Jinchen's neck and softened his tone.

No matter how the empire changes in the future, it has nothing to do with him.

His parents spent half of their lives serving the imperial military, but in the end they died tragically due to conspiracy. If not for meeting Jin Chen, he would not have survived.

He no longer cares about this place.

"It's late and I'm a little sleepy."

He shook his head, getting rid of the swarming thoughts in his mind, and put his arms around Jinchen's neck.

Jinchen closed the window with one hand and drew the curtains.

A few minutes later, the lights in the room went out, and only the night light on the bedside exuded a bright luster, reflecting the two people sleeping in each other's arms on the bed.

-

Welcome banquet the next day.

The banquet hall was chosen next to the palace. It has always hosted extremely prominent dignitaries. This time, it was set up for the federal admiral. Although it was somewhat inappropriate for his status, he was the adopted son of the federal president who was particularly favored, so no one suspected anything.

In addition to members of the royal family, there were also leaders of various military departments and dukes and nobles attending the welcome banquet, which was a great honor.

Of course, this is only on the surface.

When Jinchen wore military uniform and walked into the banquet hall side by side with Alex, the two of them noticed that there were many ambushes nearby, some even blatant.

Especially by the pool where they were standing.

None of the military members present showed surprise, which showed that they either knew about it beforehand, or they didn't care at all whether Jinchen and Alex would die in this.

"It's so shameless." Jacob followed Jinchen and complained silently.

He looked at Jinchen and was really angry.

"Sir, can I kill a few more people today?"

Jinchen took the red wine glass from the plate held by the waiter, lowered his head and sniffed it, and replied after hearing the words: "Whatever, kill whoever is ambushing you."

Alex watched helplessly as they exchanged words, "Be calm, the show hasn't even begun yet."

Jacob immediately fell silent, "Okay madam."

Several diplomats also looked around with vigilance. Although they knew the plan yesterday and were protected by people around them, when they actually arrived at the banquet hall, they always had the illusion that every unscrupulous person in the empire wanted to harm me.

The people present at the banquet, except for a few nobles who had no idea, were all full of scheming.

Isidore entered after the banquet had begun.

His hair was gray, and he was still wearing a golden imperial robe, with a crown symbolizing the emperor on his head, inlaid with jewels.

He immediately shook hands with Jinchen and said hello.

"How is President Joyce's health lately?"

Jinchen faked a smile, "It's good. It tastes good when you eat it. You're in good health. I should die after you."

Isidore: "..."

All the Imperial people present: "...!"

This federal general is so brave!

The diplomats from the Federation looked pleased, the general could finally be himself!

Alex silently held his forehead, stretched out his hand to pull Jinchen aside, took a glass of red wine and handed it to Isidore, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, Jinchen has always been straightforward, don't mind."

Isidore sneered twice, as if he was amused, "Since when will I ask you, a member of the Empire, to explain for him? It seems that you are much different from me."

He took the wine glass, and the jade ring on his thumb was bright and shiny.

"It's been a long time since you've been back. Don't you have anything to say?"

"Of course," Alex was no longer like before. He would hide his aura in front of others to show off the emperor. Today, he couldn't hide it at all, and his aura did not drop at all.

"It's just that there are a lot of people here and it would be bad if some rumors spread accidentally."

He deliberately emphasized the word "rumor" very strongly.

"Your Majesty is suspicious and particularly concerned about other people's rumors. It would be better for me to tell your Majesty in person."

These words made the imperial people present take a breath, as if they had just met this former general with outstanding military achievements. Doesn't this mean that the emperor did not believe him because he listened to other people's slander and did not have the ability to think of his own!

Isidore has been fighting with others for many years, but why can't he understand the meaning of these words?

He didn't say anything else and just replied: "Then after the banquet, you come to the palace and tell me carefully how you didn't run away from the battle."

"Of course," Alex raised his glass to him, his eyebrows were stern and his smile did not reach his eyes, "I am also looking forward to having a long chat with His Majesty after the banquet."

"Speaking of which, Admiral Jinchen must not know who organized today's banquet."

The middle-aged man next to Isidore suddenly spoke up. He looked like his royal assistant.

He raised his hand to signal the person coming to the side, "General, please introduce me. This is our Majesty's nephew, Duke Joshua."

Joshua was wearing expensive and gorgeous aristocratic clothes, with blond hair and blue eyes. He was very handsome, which attracted the attention of everyone present.

Jinchen glanced over and heard the voice continue.

"At the same time, he is also the engagement partner that His Majesty originally planned to give Alex."
