before he was crowned king

Sean turned and walked in the opposite direction, leaving the cold dungeon and walking into the splendid royal courtyard.

There was a golden luxury carriage parked majestically under the wisteria tree at the entrance of the courtyard.

This carriage is very eye-catching under the natural light. The precious green agate is generously inlaid on the wall of the carriage. The three horses pulling the carriage in front of the carriage are almost white in mane and tail. They are pure breeds of horses worth thousands of gold.

All expensive carriages must be parked outside the gate of St. Via, and this is the other courtyard of the second courtyard. It stands to reason that no other people's carriages will appear here except for the queen's driving.Sean narrowed his eyes slightly, and the car window was pushed open from the inside. The owner of the carriage was wearing a bright aristocratic suit, with a shiny wig on his head, a greasy smile on his face, and he ticked at him like a puppy. finger.

"Grand Duke Henry." Sean stepped forward and saluted slightly.

"Oh? You recognize me?" Grand Duke Henry leaned on the carriage and gazed greedily at the young man's handsome face. "You're so smart. Which family are you from?"

"I am an attendant of His Majesty Mars."

"Huh? Mars' attendant?" Grand Duke Henry frowned. "I remember that Mars's attendant is a student named Sean Miller."

"Yes, Grand Duke, I'm Sean Miller."

"You are Sean?" Grand Duke Henry was stunned, looking up and down the young man, "No wonder Mars chose a commoner to serve by his side."

"He is indeed a beautiful child." Grand Duke Henry wanted to touch the smooth skin on the young man's face, but the other side turned his head away.

"Grand Duke, do you have any orders?" Sean had a faint smile on his face.

"Order." Grand Duke Henry licked his lower lip, "I want you."

"I'm afraid it won't work." Sean shook his head, "Please forgive me for my rude refusal, Grand Duke. You know that I am serving His Royal Highness right now."

"So what? I don't mind others using it." Grand Duke Henry raised his eyebrows, his tone ambiguous, "I just want you to serve me this night."

"Don't worry, Mars is not a child, he won't blame you, let alone his uncle." Grand Duke Henry touched the young man's face again, "This is a rare opportunity, don't worry, I am very fond of the beautiful man Generous, you can do as much as you want, and I won't treat you badly..."

Sean took Grand Duke Henry's hand.

"You want to reject me?" Grand Duke Henry's face became gloomy. Although he was very satisfied with the young man's appearance, the other party was just a lowly commoner, and he couldn't bear to be rejected repeatedly. Si will protect you, and if I offer, he will personally send you to my house."

"I have no doubts about your power. You are the younger brother of Her Majesty the Queen, and one of the most distinguished figures in Sanvia." Sean said softly, "But if you take the initiative to make such a request with Your Highness, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate."

Grand Duke Henry narrowed his eyes, waiting for the young man's reply.

"I think you don't want to owe His Royal Highness Mars favors for a commoner like me." The corners of Sean's lips rose slightly, "And it's not good for me if His Highness knows about such a request."

"So?" Feeling the gentle touch on his wrist, Grand Duke Henry's heart became itchy.

"Please wait patiently for a few more days. The state affairs meeting will start in a few days, and His Highness will be very busy at that time." Sean's tone changed slightly, and his tone was gentle, "At that time... I will come to you."

"How are you going to find me?" Grand Duke Henry's throat rolled, "It's not easy to see me in your capacity."

"I will write to you." Sean leaned down and kissed the Grand Duke's golden ring, then raised his head, "Dear Grand Duke."

"Okay, I'll wait for your letter." The young man saluted and stepped back, Grand Duke Henry looked at the figure that was walking away obsessively, strong lust surged in his abdomen.

The servant at the side asked in a low voice, "Grand Duke, the person we sent to assassinate..."

"Mars protected him well, but luckily he didn't die, otherwise it would be a pity." Grand Duke Henry rubbed his lips, as if thinking about something, "It's really good."

"If you want... let him leave like this..." The servant hesitated to speak.

"He is a smart boy, I can see the deepness in his eyes." Grand Duke Henry smiled, "I have seen too many people like this, they will come to me, because I have something they dream of. "

"Yes." The servant nodded, "Grand Duke, where shall we go later?"

"Go to the casino." The lust in Grand Duke Henry's eyes rolled, and now he wanted to vent his aroused impulse in this place.

The golden carriage slowly drove towards the setting sun. Behind the wisteria forest, the silver-haired man also put down the bone china cup in his hand, and left the heavy domed gazebo.

Sean wiped his right hand expressionlessly, and put the handkerchief in his breast pocket.He took the hired carriage and returned to the Imperial Academy of Magic.Not long after he arrived at the noble dormitory, His Royal Highness Mars' carriage also stopped slowly at the gate of the courtyard.

"His Royal Highness Mars." Sean saluted the silver-haired man, "Are you ready to eat now?"

"I used it in the palace. You can eat by yourself today. I still have some business to deal with." The silver-haired man said in a flat voice, and walked up the stairs after speaking.

"Yes." Sean's eyes darkened, and without saying anything, he ate the sumptuous dinner served by the servants alone.

The climate has entered autumn, and the nights are coming earlier and earlier.Sean pushed open the door of the room, and Mars was sitting on the big bed reading books about tax law.

Sean saluted slightly, without making a sound to disturb, and walked towards his bed.Since the assassination that night, he was asked by Mars to move to this more spacious room.The bed of His Majesty Mars and his bed are in the same space, the only barrier is the red velvet curtain pulled up in the aisle.

Sean passed through the velvet curtains and lay flat on his bed with his eyes closed.

"You refused their protection today, what did you do?" A deep question came from the other side of the curtain.

"I went to find Professor Nick." Sean opened his eyes and told the story of the day in a straightforward manner, "I ran into Erics on the way back, and then we heard that his mother had come out of the dungeon, so we went to the dungeon together .”

"no yet?"

"No more," Sean said.

"Why go to the dungeon to meet the person who nearly killed you?"

"Mrs. Mary's behavior at that time was due to spiritual reasons. I hope that after meeting, I can resolve the misunderstanding and make this matter completely calm down." Sean said softly.

"It's because of Alex again?" There was a chuckle on the other side of the curtain, "So I easily let go of the person who wants to kill me. Are you such a kind person?"

"Your Highness, this matter should be calmed down as soon as possible." Shine said, "Mrs. Mary belongs to His Royal Highness Fern's faction. The more intensified conflicts will only push you back to the cusp of competing for the succession."

"So you did this because of me?" The dark red velvet curtain was lifted, and Mars stood beside the bed in a white robe, looking down into Sean's eyes, "Is that so?"

Sean froze for a moment, and was about to sit up from the bed, but Mars held his shoulders.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Sensing that Mars was in a bad mood, Sean asked softly.

"The corner of your mouth is broken." Mars stretched out his hand, his fingertips trembled invisibly when touching his upper lip, "Does it hurt?"

"It was a little bit at the time." Sean paused, "It doesn't hurt now."

"How?" Mars asked in a low voice.

Sean just looked at Mars without speaking.

"I said before, let you protect yourself and don't worry me." Mars looked serious, "Don't you remember?"

"Remember," Sean said.

"You did a good job last time, and you will do the same in the future. I won't help you get the right to hold a gun for display." Mars moved his hand up, stroked the man's golden hair, and his tone slowed down. , "The next time someone touches you, you have to learn to put a gun to his head."

"Can anyone's head be covered?" Sean smiled.

"Not all, I am not the most powerful person in this empire after all." Mars raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression seemed to be joking, but his tone was unexpectedly serious, "But it is still okay to scare my uncle with a gun, he still has A lot of wealth has not been squandered, and he is very afraid of death."

The room fell silent.

"Have you seen it?" Sean sat up straight and looked directly at Mars.

While Sean was talking with Grand Duke Henry, Mars sat with his servants in the gazebo at the back, his eyes passed through the psychedelic wisteria waterfall, looking at the man who would never lose his composure.

At first he came here, just out of protection.After hearing the absurd request of Grand Duke Henry, although he was very angry, he did not show up immediately.

Sean would have to say no, he knew it.But out of a certain psychology, he wanted to hear the reason why the dialogue rejected the Grand Duke.

The reason is very likely to be him.He knew his attendant well, and the other party had always been meticulous in his dealings with others. If he didn't want to be entangled by Grand Duke Henry, then using him as a shield was the best choice.

"I already belong to His Majesty Mars." Whether it was sincerity or excuses, he originally wanted to hear a similar answer from the man.

Unfortunately, his squire was even more cunning than he had imagined.

"Will you write to my uncle?" Mars didn't answer, "We've known each other for so long, and you haven't written to me yet."

"I think I should have written it."

"The report on the execution of the mission is not counted." Mars took over the conversation directly, "I mean the private aspect. Sean, you never talked about your own affairs."

"What do you want to know?" Sean asked after a pause.

"Everything." Mars whispered, "I want to know everything about you."

"Your Highness, my life is very ordinary, not worth mentioning..."

"It's okay if you don't want to say it, I won't force you." Mars stood up and opened the velvet curtain, with his unique confidence in his voice, "One day you will be willing to tell me."
