Two days later.

Yaga: "Although I do have the idea that after the war of gods begins, maybe you will come back..."

Hessing: "So that's why you intentionally let their conflict grow?"

Yaga: "Should be called letting nature take its course."

Hessing: "..."

Hexin casually opened a document submitted by the empire for the new emperor's review, and sketched a few strokes on it.Yaga tried to touch his earrings, but he turned his head away.

Realizing that something was wrong, Yaga stretched out his hand to press the pen in Hexin's hand, lowered his voice slightly, "Justify me?"

Hexin finally looked up at him, leaned back on the chair behind him, crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows, "You are like a cat trying to attract the owner's attention."

Yaga grinned, "Sounds good?"

His eyes showed a kind of wildness, not so much a cat, but a cheetah, but at this moment, he lowered his head slightly, revealing the deadly neck that all beasts would not easily reveal.The long white hair seems to be covered with a faint light, more crystal and beautiful than any creature in the world.

Sunshine came in from the outside along the floor-to-ceiling windows, Yaga's expression was carelessly lazy and satisfied, he sniffed the half-body breath in the air, his blue eyes slightly deepened, a little dangerous.

However, Hexin, who was used to seeing the other party like this, was completely unmoved, raised his hand and pressed the document on the other party's face, and at the same time snatched back his pen.

"Once the war of gods starts, it's no small matter, and I don't care about your deliberate paddling before. But since I'm back, you should be more serious."

Yaga smiled and said nothing.

Hexin thought about the scene he saw outside the Hanxue planet not long ago, thoughtfully, "According to the results of your investigation, they responded to the wishes of humans from different camps, and the contradictions of humans directly caused the Contradictions... In other words, in the final analysis, it is still a matter of the Hanxue Empire."

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't care about it at all." Yaga took down the documents, tidied them up and put them back in Hessing's hand. When he mentioned other things, his expression suddenly became rather cold, and he said in a flat tone, "Then The gods can't make any big waves, and they will end when they finish their troubles."

The scale of the war of gods varies from big to small, and this time it is "medium" and it is far from the level that can end a civilization in the past, and they don't need them to fight in person.

Hexin sometimes felt that the God of Evolution was like a patriarch who broke his heart for a group of brats. It was really not easy, he sighed.

As soon as he sighed, Aga, who was next to him, suddenly felt uncomfortable, and greeted the group of troublesome gods back and forth in his heart.He frowned, and stretched out his hand to Hessing.

But his hand didn't have time to touch the corner of Hexin's clothes——

Yue Xia, who was guarding the door, announced unexpectedly: "Your Highness, Your Excellency the Prince, please see me."

Hubert's affectionate call followed, "Yes, my dear nephew, your uncle is here to see you!...Why don't you let me in?"

"I'm sorry, we have to wait for His Highness's consent." Yue Xia stopped the other party with one hand, fixed his eyes like a log, and said word by word.

Hubert was angry and worried about not making a fuss. He just glared at the ignorant guard, ground his teeth, and shouted eagerly to his nephew in the gate.

Hexin immediately gave Yaga a look, and the corner of the other's mouth twitched, but he still hid his figure knowingly, and then cast his deep eyes on the door.

"Come in." After confirming that ordinary people would not look at Yaga, Hexin changed to a more comfortable sitting position and raised his jaw.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hubert walked in impatiently, holding a tray with a jug of wine in his hand.

"After tomorrow's enthronement ceremony, you will be Hanxue's official new emperor." Hubert put down the tray with emotion on his face, "I never imagined that the child I watched personally will become the ruler of a huge empire in a blink of an eye. It's really... I thought about it, our uncle and nephew haven't had a good get together for a long time, so I must personally congratulate you."

Hexin nodded, "Uncle, you are being polite."

Hubert had long been used to his nephew's indifference after returning from this trip, and sometimes he even felt that the person in front of him was not the nephew he knew at all, but had become another person.

But such thoughts are often not long-lived, and will soon be rejected rationally. After all, even if the face can be imitated, those doors and machines that require the crown prince's iris and DNA to open will not lie.

...So, it should be just an illusion.

Hubert quickly adjusted his expression, picked up the wine cup he brought and said: "Uncle will not be polite to you, uncle brought the best wine in the whole empire today, I guarantee you like it, let's have a good drink today, Talk about what's on your mind!"

The crown prince has no sweet tooth, but likes rare birds and fine wine.This is something that everyone knows, this uncle used to use all these things to please him, so everyone has long been familiar with it.

However, Hexin set his eyes on the wine cup, and the arc of his lips was meaningful, "It is indeed a good wine."

Yaga, who was hiding next to him, had already narrowed his eyes. He seemed to have bared his teeth, and then turned his gaze to Hubert with unusual kindness.Even though Aga could not be seen, Hubert's sixth sense was disturbed by the blazing gaze of a god. He quickly scanned around in surprise, his heart beat inexplicably and he clenched his hands involuntarily.

What saved him in the end was Hexin's sudden smile, "Won't Uncle fill me a glass?"

"...Ah, oh, it's full!" Hubert reacted in a daze, and the hand that poured the wine was still shaking. It was thanks to Hexin that he held the glass in time to prevent it from spilling.

Feeling Yaga's heavy eyes on him, Hexin suddenly said: "Drinking a small amount of alcohol is good for your health." He looked at Hubert who was puzzled by his words, "Did uncle say so?"

"Yes, that's it..." I don't know if it was his illusion, but Hubert always felt that these words were not directed at him.He smiled embarrassingly, his palms dripping with cold sweat.

Yaga, who was slightly comforted, obeyed the meaning expressed by half of his body, and did not act rashly, but the corners of his mouth had already evoked a cold and cruel arc, and the bottom of his eyes was full of coolness.

— This is a glass of poisoned wine.

Yaga sniffed the smell in the air, and with just one thought, he easily analyzed the content and composition of this poison.He has become countless species, and there are countless highly poisonous poisons in it.There will be no one who understands everything in the world better than him, even God is no exception, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the ancestor of playing drugs.

He gave Hexin a look, and Hexin instantly understood: Is it a poison that can kill you... This uncle doesn't seem like someone who would dare to do such a thing blatantly. If nothing else, the Crown Prince was alone with him He was poisoned to death, and he drank the wine he sent. Isn't this not clean at all, and they are going to die together?

While thinking casually, Hexin raised his head and drank a cup.After thinking about it, he blinked at Yaga who was staring at him closely: It doesn't seem to have any special smell?

Yaga frowned and looked at him, repeatedly clenched and loosened his clenched hands.

Of course, it is impossible for this kind of poison to affect the gods, but whether it has been done or not is not the same as whether it has been done or not.Anger surged in the heart of the ultimate short-term god, and Hexin's appeasement was the last thread to maintain his sanity.

Yaga, who had just been attuned to the deep-sea merman species not long ago, moved his lips, revealing his sharp teeth. Along with the blood in his chest cavity, the venom that began to secrete frantically in his mouth.

The deep-sea mermaid and the ordinary mermaid are completely two kinds of creatures. The latter is a beautiful and singing fantasy in the story, while the former is the overlord of the ocean, who can use sharp claws, long tails, and fangs to tear apart prey and bite the throat. Top predator.

"I want you to tell me honestly, have you really met the God of Evolution?" At this moment, Hubert suddenly said.

The word "God of Evolution" mentioned in this voice made Yaga's eyes stagnate, and at the same time attracted Hexin's attention, allowing Hubert to gain a short time inadvertently.

Hexin was thoughtful, but still nodded lightly.

Hubert gasped suddenly and let out a clear gulp.He looked nervous and impatient, and even his forehead hair was soaked in cold sweat.He was shaking all over, and quickly asked the next question.

"I want you to tell me honestly, am I also eligible to meet the God of Evolution?"

Hubert's speech speed has increased rapidly, just like his heart beating wildly, sentence after sentence without a break——

"Please tell me honestly, how can I meet that god?"

"How can I get the qualifications for the other party's blessing?"

"How can I get the favor of that god like you?"

"Offer offerings, send treasures, build him the most magnificent temple, build him the most magnificent statue, hold the most grand sacrifice for him... How will he respond to me, just like he responded to you!?"

Hessing: "..."

Thank you, you just sent me a glass of poisoned wine.

However, Hexin felt that the man's question was interesting, so he couldn't help squinting his eyes meaningfully.

Hubert was already a little incoherent when he said that, but he couldn't help it!The Hanxue Empire has devoutly believed in several gods for thousands of years, and Mengtu, who represents gold and scepter, is one of them.And the God of Evolution is far above their beliefs, an existence that their ancestors dare not expect to be responded to!

However, his nephew, his nephew who in his opinion would be pulled down soon, turned out to be - why!Got the favor of a supreme god!With this alone, he is destined to never be able to shake the other party's orthodox position.Unless that Supreme God can also give him a little favor, even a little bit!

But this little possibility is also whimsical. If it weren't for his nephew as a living example of success, Hubert would never have thought of it before.

At this moment, there was a loud noise outside the door.It was the Prime Minister who broke in with a group of people. The soldiers were holding weapons, and the silver muzzles reflected sharp light.

Hexin seemed to suddenly understand something, he gave Yosha who also barged in with a panicked look, "What's wrong?"

Josha looked at him up and down, and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "The Prime Minister said that Prince Hubert intends to poison you!"

"What?!" Hubert looked more surprised than everyone else. He subconsciously looked at Hexin in horror and anxiety, "Don't listen to their nonsense, I didn't..."

"You poisoned the wine you delivered." The Prime Minister interrupted Hubert, then glanced at Hessing, who was safe, and bowed his eyebrows, "It seems that I managed to catch up, and you are safe and sound. What a wonderful thing. A servant saw Prince Hubert do this, and the witnesses have been taken into custody. As for the physical evidence... just check the flagon."

He seemed to think that Hessing hadn't finished the glass of wine yet.

Of course, after drinking that glass of wine, it is impossible for a person to be fine, it is a poison that can kill a cow immediately.

Hubert denied it, but quickly looked at the prime minister again, as if he suddenly understood something, "You? It's you?!" His expression became resentful, "How dare you plot against me!?"

The prime minister lowered his eyes, and said lightly: "Don't dare, please don't spitting blood, Your Highness can see it all."

Hexin and Yaga looked at each other across the air, and Yaga's cold expression became playful.The Prime Minister, who was always watching Hessing, looked along, but only saw an empty corner.

It's obviously a very common corner with nothing, but I don't know if it's an illusion, but the Prime Minister actually felt a trembling feeling of being stared at by some extremely dangerous creature. Ordinary look.

"I think this physical evidence is yet to be discussed." In the suffocating silence, Hexin spoke slowly.

The prime minister suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, bowed his head and rolled up his sleeves, and said earnestly: "I know that you have a close relationship with the prince, and he is your real uncle. But how dare he commit such a disrespectful thing like this?" , it is really unforgivable, Your Highness, don't let a wolf go just because of a momentary soft-heartedness!"

"The Prime Minister misunderstood me. I mean, I've already drank the wine, but I'm fine." Hessing said, "This is the truth."

After saying this, everyone present couldn't help but look at each other.

Seeing everyone's hesitation, Hexin simply filled another glass for himself, and then drank it down under Yaga's black face.Needless to say, the more he drank the poisonous wine, the more he drank it, and Hexin actually felt a little excited.Yaga ground her teeth behind her, breathing heavily, as if she was about to be out of breath.

The prime minister's pupils shrank a little, he seemed a little unwilling to give up, and looked up and down Hexin in disbelief, but Hexin was really fine.

Hubert stopped talking, because he was also a little confused now.

The glass of wine he brought up was indeed flavored, but it wasn't poison, and it didn't do any harm to the human body. Otherwise, as Hessing speculated before, the crown prince drank his wine and died, so wouldn't he wash himself If it's not clean, you're going to be finished?Therefore, when the prime minister appeared, Hubert's first thought was that the oriole was behind. .

Probably like him, he was also stimulated by the declaration of the ringing bells before. Seeing that the chances are getting smaller and smaller, everything is about to be settled, so he had to give it a go today.

But now Hexin's reaction made him unable to understand.

"Good wine." Hexin took out a new glass, poured it in and shook it, and the clear wine shook in circles, reflecting a pair of blue eyes.He raised his hand, "Does the prime minister want a drink? Uncle's kindness is rare."

No one dared to say anything, but everyone had secretly looked at the Prime Minister from the corner of their eyes.They were not stupid either, and they naturally tasted something different from Hexin's tone.

The prime minister was quiet for a while, then with a flick of his sleeves, he bowed to take the wine glass under Hessing's watchful eyes, "The hospitality is hard to turn down, thank you Your Highness."

When the words fell, he drank it in one gulp, without any hesitation.Seeing this, everyone could not help but slowly dissipate the suspicion in their eyes, they only thought that the prime minister's frank appearance was probably because they were thinking too much.

Only Hubert sneered at the side, this damn old fox, if this old fox really prepared the poison, wouldn't he have no antidote? Of course he is not afraid! !

After the Prime Minister drank the wine, the atmosphere at the scene seemed to relax a lot.Someone was already secretly planning the investigation process after this incident. Thinking of the people involved in it, he couldn't help but have a headache and just sighed helplessly.

If it is really a word from the people above, the people below will break their legs.In the next period of time, some grinding.

At this moment, Hessing suddenly turned his head to look at Hubert and said, "I've heard of a very miraculous holy water before. It is said that blessings are bestowed by the gods in charge of truth and lies, and it has the ability to drink holy water. The power of someone who speaks the truth, but afterwards makes the other party completely unimpressed by what he said.”

As if not noticing Hubert's suddenly stiff body, Hessing said to himself: "It's just that few people know that the god of truth and lies is the subordinate god of the god of evolution."

Agawei on the side raised the corner of his mouth, and in the field of vision that only the two of them could see, the wine cup on the table suddenly glowed with a faint golden light, overflowing with the power called "truth".

Hexin crossed his hands, resting on his chin, and turned to look at Hubert, "For the holy water to take effect, you need to add a spell before the question. Does uncle know what it is?"

Hubert was already dripping with cold sweat at this moment, his eyes were lax, and he moved his difficult throat as if he lost his soul, and squeezed out each word, "Yes... please tell me honestly..."

Hexin nodded, then looked at the other person again, "Your Excellency, is the wine just now good?"

Prime Minister: "...delicious."

He is naturally not stupid, or in other words, anyone who can sit in this position and cultivate ambitions that shouldn't be there has a brain that is sharp enough.So he had already realized something from Hexin's words, and his face had already turned pale at this time.

— Just as Hubert was unaware that the wine he had prepared had been stolen.Nor did the prime minister know what Hubert's original wine was for.The two of them calculated each other, but they didn't know that there was a person who could see more clearly than both of them, and this person turned out to be the crown prince whom none of them took seriously!

Who would have thought?Who dares to think? !

At this time, Hexin had already laughed.

This little prince's appearance is quite innocent when he smiles, and the corners of his mouth are raised and innocent, but in the eyes of everyone at this moment, it is as if he is looking up at an unfathomable tall figure, which makes people unconsciously squeeze out from his throat. The hiss of "ho ho".

"Then please tell me honestly—"

The Prime Minister heard a demonic voice, the person who said this moved his lips, slowly——

"everything."

For a moment, the prime minister seemed to see a phantom under the skin that did not belong to the little prince.An untouchable existence that he can only look up to, is watching him from a height.The face of that existence was blurred, except for a pair of blue eyes, which were soul-stirring.

This strong impact finally made him realize the sense of disobedience he had always had, and he had an idea that he shouldn't have, even a terrifying thought.But the power of the water of truth made him unable to speak at this moment, and he could only obediently answer "everything" the other party said.

This, this person, this "existence" in front of me... Who is it? ! !

The author has something to say: Hessing: You think I am on the first floor, but I am actually on the fifth floor.

By the way, in the end Hessing did it on purpose, to scare him by saying goodbye.

Prime Minister: Thank you, I was scared to pee.
