"What are you doing now?" Abner asked Wens as he watched Booker and Alia walk away.

Wins sighed, and said, "The Priest Meimei is eating and drinking at Tommen's house. Let's go back to Duolun Palace first, and come out to collect the soul at night."

"Okay, I want to go out for a stroll first, just in case Oreas finds me." As he said that, Abner left the dungeon and walked towards the city market. After a while, Wen Si also caught up.

Abner looked back at him and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Get Keener some medicine."

Only then did Abner realize that Keener did not follow into the dungeon, and seemed to go directly to the small building next to the city gate.

"What happened to Keener?" Abner asked.

Wen Si scratched his head: "I don't really know what's going on with this kid. I usually don't get close to women. This time when I got close to a brothel, the reaction was serious. I asked him to rest."

Abner patted Wen Si on the back and said, "You treat him very well. I think he is very energetic. Although he is a bit shy, he should be able to become an honorary knight. Isn't the salary higher?"

Wins sighed, "I told him that too, but this kid doesn't seem to want to climb up. Maybe it's more filial. His father was not in good health during his lifetime, and he didn't have so much time to go back to accompany him when he became an honorary knight." gone."

Abner nodded, Wens went to a pharmacy to buy medicine, and the two continued to stroll on the street.

Both of them are outstanding-looking people, which will inevitably cause passing women to look at them twice. Suddenly, a yellow object hits Wen Si. Wen Si's eyes sank, and he immediately reached out to catch it. It was an apricot.

It is yellow and clear, with drops of water hanging from it.

Wen Si looked in the direction of still Kyoko, and saw a girl lowered her head with a flushed face.

Wins: "..."

Abner laughed loudly, patted Wen Si on the back, and said, "Go, go! Why are you still standing there, your chance has come!"

Wen Si glanced at him, saw another apricot was thrown at Abner, and Abner quickly caught it.

Abner: "..."

Wen Si turned sideways and said, "Why is the young master in a daze? Hurry up and chase that girl."

The corner of Abner's mouth twitched, "Shut your mouth, Vince."

Wen Si smiled, and gave Abner a push, "This is not like your style according to the rumors. You are the beloved and hated Master Abner."

Abner glared at Wen Si, "Okay, you wait."

After speaking, he took the apricot and walked towards the girl.

The girl's face was full of excitement and shyness, and there was a faint commotion around her, and everyone gathered around the girl.Wen Si stared blankly, feeling that he had encouraged Abner to do something wrong.

I saw Abner striding forward, with his waist straight, his slender fingers running through his brown hair, and the hem of his coat fluttering slightly in the wind, giving him a chic aristocratic atmosphere.The commotion among the girls grew louder and louder.Abner walked into the crowd and grabbed the hand of the girl who smashed apricots. The girl looked up at him fascinatedly.

"Excuse me, please." Abner said to the people around him, and then he dragged the girl to a remote place.

Wen Si stared wide-eyed, this guy can't play for real...

The rest wanted to follow, but dared not, so they had to stand in the distance and bite their handkerchiefs hastily.

Wen Si got closer and saw that Abner pushed the girl into a corner. Although the girl was not much shorter than Abner, Abner had one hand against the wall and squinted at the girl... Mature breath.

Abner took something out of his pocket, then took the girl's hand, bowed his head and kissed it lightly, and then put something into the girl's hand.The girl was stunned, and Abner whispered something softly next to the girl's ear, then let go of the girl, turned and left.

The rest of the crowd frantically surrounded the girl, asking questions, but Wens noticed the girl's pale face from a gap in the crowd.

Abner walked towards Wens, took out an apricot, took a bite, and said, "It's delicious! The apricots bought for five copper coins have a different taste!"

The corner of Vince's mouth twitched, "What did you do?"

"She gave me apricots, of course I have to pay. Seeing how weak she looks, I gave more."

Wins asked, "What did you say to her in the end?"

"I say thank you."

Wins: "..."

Abner took another bite of an apricot and said, "You have to hurry up, you're already thirty and don't have a partner, I'm different, my dad said, he can do whatever he wants."

Wen Si was surprised, "Master Wang Fu is really enlightened."

Abner laughed.

Suddenly Abner's eyes lit up, he ate the apricots in twos and spit out the core, and hurried forward.Wen Si followed and saw that it was a store selling pet collars.Abner looked at the various collars on the wall, fascinated.

"My lord, what do you raise? We have different specifications." The vendor came up and asked courteously.

Abner replied: "Leopard."

The vendor was stunned, "This... my lord, are you sure you need the collar here? These can be brought out, this... leopard is not very good, right?"

Abner scratched his head, "Little leopard, a bit bigger than a cat."

The vendor thought for a while, then took down a black leather collar from the wall, "My lord, this is a large size cat collar, do you think it fits?"

Abner held the collar and looked at it repeatedly. Wen Si was startled, pulled him aside, and asked, "Are you going to wear it for Oreas?"

Abner nodded, "I've already told my father to raise him. What if my father comes back and finds that the cat is gone?"

Wen Si glanced at the collar, then thought about Oreas who was taller than himself, "..."

Abner handed the collar to the vendor with a serious face, and said, "This leather is too hard, do you have a softer one?"

"My lord, the softer ones must be more expensive."

Abner glanced at him, "Take it out first."

The vendor quickly took off a black collar on the top layer, which was extremely soft to the touch. The collar was decorated with sun-shaped copper plates, and a delicate bell hung in the center.

"This is not bad." Abner squeezed.

The vendor said: "My lord, this is the softest leather in the store, and the length is easy to adjust. But actually, my lord, if you really keep a leopard... this one is not very strong, it is better to use the strip steel one." .”

Abner unbuckled the buckle and said, "Doesn't it hurt to wear the steel one?"

The vendor was taken aback, "This leopard has thick skin and flesh, how could it hurt?"

"That's not okay, it must be uncomfortable to wear."

Merchant: "..."

The vendor smiled and said, "My lord, you really treasure this leopard."

Abner snorted softly, lifted the collar, and put it around his neck.

Wins: "..."

The merchant's face changed in fright, "Master...my lord, this is not for you..."

Abner gave him a blank look, and said, "I know, I'm just trying to see whether it's uncomfortable or not."

Wins: "..."

Merchant: "..."

In the end, Abner bought the collar, and the merchant wrapped it up for Abner graciously. After sending the two out, the merchant heaved a sigh of relief.

Abner and Wens returned to Duolun Palace. On the road, they saw Sean walking with a ashen expression on his face. Abner quickly got off the carriage and asked, "Sean, what's wrong with you?"

Sean kept his mouth shut and said, "It's nothing, I had a fight with my father, but luckily it was finally done."

"What did it do?"

"Bury Adrian's harp with my uncle."

Abner was taken aback, he didn't expect Sean to do this.

Sean continued: "I've already picked up a piece of land and sent someone to bury Adrian."

"Sean, you..." Abner patted Sean on the shoulder and said, "It's good."

Sean snorted softly: "But the robin whistle my uncle gave me will always be with my uncle, and it's earlier than the harp."

Abner: "..."

Abner held Sean's shoulders and walked towards Baihan Tower.

"What are you doing there?" Sean asked.

Abner chuckled, "Go to history class."

Xiao En gave him a blank look, and said, "My lords, have you been dropped?"

Abner smiled at him, "Then you want the old me back?"

Sean poked him in the stomach and said, "Be serious."

Abner laughed out loud, and the two quickly entered Brigham Hall, and Abner went straight to Earl Aubrey's study.

Abner was about to knock on the door, but Sean grabbed him and whispered, "Are you really here for history class?"

"No, I'll return the things."

Abner knocked on the door.

"Who?"

"My lord, I am Abner, and...His Highness Sean." Abner replied, and Sean glared at him.

"Come in."

Aubrey was reading a thick book. When he saw the two people coming in, he put down his pen, smiled slightly, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Abner wandered around in the study and said, "My lord, I would like to ask you a question about history."

"Oh? Tell me." Aubrey raised his eyebrows.

"I remember that there was an Earl Bernard in the history of Blue Spring City, the one who liked to eat lizards. He had two sons. The eldest son was a dementia, and the second son was quite smart. Later, the second son instigated the eldest son to kill his father, which resulted in the deprivation of the eldest son's right of inheritance. Two birds with one stone, and the second son became Count Bernard."

Aubrey glanced at him and asked, "What does Master Apocatheri want to ask?"

Abner smiled, "I just want to ask what happened to the second son with a bright mind?"

Aubrey replied lightly: "Fell off a cliff and died."

Abner slapped his forehead suddenly, "That's right, why did I forget, I still remember that he had just inherited the title not long ago. Thank you, my lord."

"No need," Aubrey re-opened the book, picked up a quill to make notes on it, "Master Abner, I advise you to pay less attention to this matter, the records in the history books are just to make people laugh."

"Is it funny? I don't think it's funny."

Aubrey glanced at him, and continued: "There will be no such type of questions on the four-nation history paper the day after tomorrow. You seem to be coming of age soon, please don't leave a shameful mark before you come of age."

Abner grinned, "Follow your lord's instruction."

Aubrey snorted softly and said nothing.Sean secretly pulled Abner and pointed to the door.

Abner pressed his hand, then took out the bracelet and put it on Aubrey's table, Aubrey glanced at it, his hand trembling.

Abner saw it all, he smiled lightly, and said, "My lord, someone entrusted me to return the things."

Then he pulled Sean away without looking back.

After leaving the study, Sean asked, "What's going on?"

Abner lazily said: "It's nothing, I just came to return the things. Your lord has always disliked me, and it's time for me to change this time."

Sean kept his mouth shut and said, "I think he hates you even more. The moment you took out the bracelet, didn't you see his expression as if he had eaten moldy bread?"

Abner laughed, "That's better."

Sean glanced at him, "You really are..."

Abner put the collar he just bought into the cabinet, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the blue wooden box in the cabinet, his heart beat faster, he glanced around, and Aureas hadn't returned yet.He hurriedly opened the box. Before, he just glanced casually and only saw the dirty picture book. This time he wanted to take a good look at what else was inside.

He pulled the book away and caught a sudden glimpse of a blue collar.He picked it up curiously, pinched it and felt that the leather was softer than the one he bought.

"I wouldn't have bought it if I knew it earlier." He said to himself.

There is also a bell on the collar, and a circle of white feathers.

"I just don't know if Aureas likes this feather, won't it itch when rubbed against his neck?" He hesitated and looked at the circle again, "Maybe Aureas doesn't like this color very much, maybe he would prefer black .After harvesting the souls, ask him which one he likes."

Suddenly he heard a sound from the window behind him, and before he had time to clean it up, he immediately closed the cabinet, turned around, and saw Aureas standing behind him.

"Ah...ha, Oreas, are you done?" Abner twitched a smile.
