Mermaid [Interstellar]

"My lord, the second prince Cyril is here." As a qualified housekeeper, George can always show up on time when his master needs it, "I have prepared cold water, please don't rub your eyes, it is very unhygienic .”

"Uh..." Alice put down her hands helplessly, turned her back to avoid George's sight and yawned quietly, "What is he doing here? Aren't we leaving?"

She didn't sleep all night last night. She is so sleepy now that she doesn't want to see anyone.

"I don't know, maybe I found an abnormality." George squinted and smiled with a gentle expression on his face, "You can cover your mouth with your hand when you yawn, so that I won't be able to see your mouth no matter how wide you open it."

Alice: "..."

"Let Cyril come in quickly."

George bowed and saluted: "Okay, I'll notify you right away."

The second prince, Xi Ruier, is a half-brother with the crown prince. I heard that they don't get along very well, and brotherly friendship is just superficial.

Alice pondered, the prince has always muddled through political affairs, and rarely had positive moments—when he was urging for information on the reconstruction project of Yunhaixing, Alice was puzzled, but thinking that he had worked hard for a while, she didn't think much about it .

——Although it turns out that he has another purpose, she should think about it a few times.

The second prince is a radical, and has long been dissatisfied with the prince's attitude of "ruling by doing nothing". What do you want to do when you come here at this time?

……

"Actually, it's nothing. I just thought it's been a long time since I caught up with you." Cyril's sapphire-blue eyes were bent, and her neat short blond hair shone in the sun, making Alice a little dazed.

George shook Alice's arm by bringing tea to bring her back to her senses. She raised her hand to support her head and said lightly, "There's nothing to talk about between us."

Cyril once proposed marriage to Alice, but Alice first agreed and then backed out. Fortunately, they only agreed in private, and not many people knew about it.What is rare is that after Alice repented, Cyril was still kind to her, and did not become angry with embarrassment.

Xi Ruier was not annoyed: "Don't be like this, we can still be friends if we can't make it as a husband and wife."

"I really don't have anything to say. I came to Emperor Star this time in a hurry." Alice pressed her temples and tried to cheer herself up. She was really tired after being brushed by the two father and son in turn.

Alice: "Tell me quickly if you have anything to do. I really have something to do. This time I came to Diwangxing in a hurry."

Cyril stopped circling around and cut straight to the point: "I heard that my brother went to inspect your star field, but I haven't heard any news about him."

"Are you spying on him?"

"Isn't that normal?" Cyril admitted generously, "I'm just a little worried about his safety. I heard that His Majesty called you into the palace overnight?"

Alice felt her head hurting: "You two brothers like to die so much?" One sneaked into the autonomous planet and sent himself to the Star Thief, and the other habitually monitored his family.

"If His Majesty finds out that you are watching him—"

"He won't know." Cyril interrupted her, "The people I arranged are not very important, and I don't know much about them."

Alice: "...you think I'll believe it?"

"Believe it or not. Anyway, I'm telling you that I'm spying on my family—you have to know that it's not a royal family," Cyril said, "I've told you about such important things. In exchange, you are Shouldn't you tell me something?"

Alice: "Did I say I want to exchange information with you? You don't need to tell me, I'm really not interested in your affairs, okay?"

Cyril smiled mysteriously: "But I think there is something you will be interested in."

"Not interested, please go back." Alice just wanted to see off the guests, "I'm sorry, I'm really not in good shape."

Cyril was stunned for a moment, then his eyes dimmed, and Alice turned her head slightly: "Let's talk about it later."

After Cyril left, George gave Alice a new cup of tea: "Are you afraid?"

Alice thinks that George just likes to think too much. This housekeeper who has been with her for many years, from his father to her, George has always been loyal to the Davis family.George can be said to have watched her grow up, and even taught her a lot after her father left.

Alice closed her eyes tiredly: "What am I afraid of?"

George pointed out: "Your Highness Cyril, they look too much alike."

Alice waved: "I'll see her soon."

George said softly: "My lord, you are too tired to live."

"Why, wouldn't it be nice to have something to do?" Alice lay back on the chair without moving her eyes. "If you have something to do, you won't be idle."

So...don't miss her...

"Going to Blue Star this time, do you dare to meet her?"

"Are you being ironic? Deliberately provoking me?"

"Isn't it? You know it in your heart, so why should I say it?"

Alice opened her eyes and watched George lower his head to pack his things. There seemed to be some memories in his eyes: "How many years have you said? Of course I want to see her, but she doesn't even know who I am, so what's the use if I go?"

"Your Excellency..." George looked at his little master distressedly. He watched her grow up, watched her go through that great change, lost almost everything, and gave everything she had, desperately. Sitting on the Emperor Star is delaying the task given by the Emperor.

Alice didn't feel sad for too long, as if the person just now wasn't her, she quickly adjusted: "You pack your things, I'll go to the palace, and we'll go to Blue Star when we get back."

George's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something more.

"Don't worry," Alice smiled slightly, "I know what I should do now, and I will never let anyone who does evil go!"

……

"This is His Majesty's letter of appointment, please keep it safe, and these materials are at the highest level of confidentiality, please take precautions."

After the terminal received the data and confirmed that there was no problem, Alice asked, "Where is Your Majesty? I still want to say goodbye to him."

Secretary-General Gordon's expression remained unchanged: "Your Majesty is too tired and is still resting. Please rescue His Highness Philip as soon as possible."

Alice flipped through the clues she had so far: "Tracked the 'Endeavour' lost contact on Blue Star? Can you still get in touch now?"

"No, it is estimated that the Endeavor has been dismantled by the Star Thief." Gordon said, "Your Majesty means to try to get Blue Star's self-governing lords to cooperate with the rescue operation."

"Let the autonomous lords of Blue Star cooperate?" Alice looked at Gordon with a half-smile. Did the emperor really not know or pretended that Blue Star was a mermaid autonomous planet?

The Secretary-General coughed, obviously thinking of this: "Of course, you can also act according to the actual situation, as long as the person is rescued."

"In any case, all we know so far is that a large number of nobles have disappeared in Blue Star, and we need a large amount of ransom. The development of your cloud sea star will be much better if there are mermaids in it, right?" Gordon It seems to have a deep meaning. Over the years, Alice has been blocking the blue star intentionally or unintentionally, preventing people in the empire from contacting them, and not allowing them to contact other planets. "After Yun Haixing, there will be no fish. Everyone agrees This Blue Star is very curious."

Alice put away her things and wanted to leave as soon as possible, but when she heard Gordon say this, she didn't leave in a hurry: "What position do you stand on to say this?"

Gordon said calmly: "Of course it is for the development of the empire. If Yunhaixing can develop, there will be a lot of taxes. You can also repay the large loan from the bank, and the taxes from the Davis Star Field can also be paid." Come up to fill the central finance."

"You're right, I think so too." Alice frowned and smiled like a fox, "But what if Blue Star becomes the second Cloud Star? I don't have a second family property to mortgage Now, will His Majesty pay for the 'Blue Star Reconstruction Project'?"

Gordon was still calm: "From what you said, the Davis Starfield has always been difficult to operate, and His Majesty has always been very clear about this."

"Since Your Majesty is clear, please don't give me any more problems. Mr. Gurdon, I think you should understand how difficult it was to pass the transition point bill of Star Yunhai back then, and all these years you have been unable to get in. Do it again... I really can't afford it." At the end, she smiled mischievously, "I'm still young, and I have to spend time and energy on these things every day, and this kind of thing really distresses me .”

Gordon seemed to react: "Sorry, I forgot."

The topic ended, and the two stopped talking, and Gordon got up to send Alice out.

Gordon said in a low voice: "Your Majesty already knows about the dissolution of the engagement between you and His Highness Cyril."

Alice stopped suddenly, with a serious expression: "Mr. Gordon, please tell Your Majesty that the second prince and I have never entered into an engagement!"

"This is also what His Majesty wishes." Gordon reminded her, "Your Majesty will not be safe for a day until your engagement is concluded."

Alice said in a deep voice: "The Davis family will not marry for profit. This is a tradition. We pursue love, and my surname is Davis."

"Really?" Watching Alice's back going away, Gordon muttered something in a low voice, turned around, and told the people below: "Find a new personal secretary for His Majesty, the one who doesn't talk too much. "

"You have never been happy since you came back. Can I understand that you were wronged in the palace?" On the voyage to Blue Star, George handed Alice a cup of hot tea.

Alice asked back: "What would you do if I was wronged?"

George was very relieved: "You are so old, you will take revenge yourself in the future, and I don't need to take action."

Alice held her chin: "You're right, some people, if you give them an inch, they want an inch, and they can't keep it."

George bowed and saluted Alice: "I wish my master good luck, old George offers his most sincere wishes."

"Aren't you going to ask me what I want to do?"

"My master has grown up, so I don't need to worry about it." George smiled. "What you do will definitely be successful."
