When Ling Yuan came home, Ling Yu was studying the chess records sent by Caesar in the study. He was obviously very interested in Go, and his expression was very serious when he read the book. Ling Yuan was embarrassed to disturb him, so he stood at the door and poked his head out to peek inside. .

Ling Yu raised his head: "What's the matter?"

Lingyuan was found, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the house, walked behind his father and squeezed his shoulders flatteringly, "Dad, Caesar went to the planet Ryan to bring his mother and sister over. I saw them today, sister There is a cake shop in the central square of Capital Star..."

Ling Yu said calmly: "Caesar is good at talking, and he can actually move Mrs. Lin. And you, you must have been moved by him, right?"

Lingyuan: "..."

Ling Yu looked back at her son, "Is that why you asked me to talk about this?"

Ling Yuan touched his nose in embarrassment: "Dad, do you and your father hate Caesar very much?"

Ling Yu said: "If so? Will you separate from him?"

Ling Yuan clenched his fists: "No..."

Ling Yu smiled and continued to look down at the book.

Ling Yuan blushed and said, "Dad, I love him very much. Besides him, I can't think of anyone else to be with me." Ling Yuan's expression was very serious, "Caesar is actually a very good person. It's also very good, I hope Dad can accept him... I know what you said, he is a prince, and he may become His Majesty in the future, I am willing to stand by his side and face everything with him..."

Luo Sen happened to pass by the study, and he couldn't help but stop when he heard what Xiao Yuan said.

Lingyuan continued: "Dad, I want to be with Caesar, and I'm serious. Before he marked me, I already liked him. He confessed to me very early when he was in school. That mark It was also an accident caused by the inhibitor, he didn't force me to do anything."

Ling Yu looked up at Luo Sen, and met Luo Sen's deep gaze.

Maybe he was wrong?If Caesar had really confessed to Xiao Yuan, and Xiao Yuan also had a crush on Caesar, then it wasn't because of the influence of pheromones that they had to be together, and because... they loved each other?

In this way, it seems to be much more acceptable.

Ling Yu was silent for a moment, then nodded: "The most important thing is that you think clearly, Dad will not object to your decision."

Ling Yuan immediately said happily: "It's fine if Dad doesn't object!"

Rosen walked in with a smile, wrapped his arms around Ling Yu's shoulders, and said softly, "Go and have some supper, I asked the kitchen to make your favorite dessert."

Ling Yu stood up, and Ling Yuan immediately followed behind his father, looking forward to saying: "Dad, when will I get married with Caesar..."

Ling Yu said helplessly: "So impatient? Doesn't look like an omega at all."

Ling Yuan scratched his head and laughed, and Luo Sen couldn't help laughing and said, "No way, we Xiao Yuan are like his father."

Ling Yu's face darkened, "You mean, I couldn't wait to marry you?"

Rosen shot himself in the foot with a rock: hurriedly clarified: "No, no, I didn't mean that..."

Ling Yu looked back at him: "Then what do you mean?"

Rosen explained: "I mean, on the point of 'not being an omega', Xiao Yuan inherited his father."

Ling Yu frowned: "You mean I don't look like an omega?"

Rosen: "..."

The marshal became darker and darker, the general went to eat supper angrily, the marshal spread his hands helplessly, "Son, you know what I mean."

Ling Yuan said happily: "I understand."

The two most outstanding military generals of the empire took off their straight military uniforms and serious military masks, and wore loose and casual pajamas at home, arguing and quarreling over trivial matters. This kind of feeling is like a family.

※※※※※

Perhaps Ling Yuan's confession had an effect, and Ling Yu's attitude towards Caesar had obviously improved. When Caesar came to visit again, he actually showed a rare smile, "Cesis, I heard that you took Mrs. Lin over here. It's done well? I can't talk to Rosen about her, but I didn't expect that she would listen to your advice instead."

Mrs. Lin looks weak, but she is very strong in her bones.She didn't want to accept the marshal's favor, she raised her son willingly, and the compensation the marshal gave her would make her feel uncomfortable.But this matter is different when Caesar is doing it. As a junior, it is only natural for Caesar and Ling Yuan to be filial to their adoptive mother. In addition, Caesar helped Lin Yao buy the cake shop as an investor. The identity and Xiaoyuan respectively hold 25% of the shares. This kind of handling is easy for everyone to accept.

In terms of interpersonal communication, Caesar was obviously influenced by His Majesty Trand, and he was very considerate in all aspects.

This is the first time Ling Yu praised him, Caesar was so excited, he forced his face to be calm, and said modestly: "Uncle, this is what I should do..."

Ling Yu smiled slightly, and felt the big tail behind Caesar wagging again.

The little prince is usually calm and calm in front of outsiders, and he already has the demeanor of the heir to the throne, but every time he arrives at the Marshal's villa, he will change into this expression of apprehension and seriousness to please his father-in-law. Look, today he brought a gift and held it with both hands. In front of Ling Yu, "This set of Go, I hope uncle likes it."

Ancient things like Go are rarely touched by people nowadays, and there are even fewer manufacturers that produce Go. Nishizawa consulted a lot of information and bought a batch of precious jade specially for General Ling Yu. A set of chess board and chess pieces.

The chess pieces are warm and smooth, and the chess pieces made of natural jade are flawless.Only experts understand the value of a seemingly ordinary set of Go. Every chess piece is priceless. The board is carved with high-quality white jade, with clear lines, making people love it just by looking at it.

Ling Yu praised: "Not bad, did you spend a lot of effort?"

Caesar smiled and said, "It's okay."

Ling Yu picked up the white chess pieces and handed the black ones to Caesar, "Come, play a game with me."

Caesar: "..."

Ling Yu looked up at him, "No way?"

"...No." Caesar squeezed the sweat in his palms, and quickly changed his words: "I'll go back and learn, and I'll accompany you next time?"

Ling Yu nodded in satisfaction: "Well, come to my house for dinner next weekend."

Caesar: "...OK."

The little prince hurried back to the palace, and asked Bai Yu to call up the "Basic Go Textbook" from the online database, and began to study it seriously.

A week later, Caesar came to the Marshal's house for dinner. After the meal, Ling Yu called Caesar to the study to play Go, while Luo Sen and Xiao Yuan watched.In the first round, Ling Yu consumed all of Nishizawa's blacks in 3 minutes; in the second round, he drove Nishizawa to a dead end in 4 minutes; in the third round, he killed Nishizawa in 5 minutes...

Ling Yu was holding a white chess piece in his hand, with a calm expression and strategizing.Caesar's forehead was dripping with cold sweat. He had only studied for a week, and he couldn't take advantage of General Ling Yu's hands.

After winning five games in a row, Ling Yu took back the chess pieces with a smile and said, "No more."

Caesar hurriedly stood up, "You are too powerful, I am no match at all."

Ling Yu said indifferently: "Playing chess is not as simple as you think, go back and study it. How can you win if you can't calm down?"

Ling Yu packed up the chessboard and turned to go upstairs, Caesar was stunned, holding the chess pieces in his hand thoughtfully.

※※※※※

From that day on, Caesar took time out every day to study the skills of playing Go. He suddenly discovered that playing Go is not a simple entertainment game. Patience and perseverance.

As General Ling Yu said, if you can't calm down, how can you win?Self-disruption will only give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Seeing her son studying Go there all day long, Queen Anna was very worried: "Xizawa goes to play chess with General Ling Yu every weekend, but the marriage with Xiaoyuan has never been settled. Should we formally propose marriage?"

Trand smiled meaningfully: "Ling Yu is actually teaching Caesar something by doing this."

Anna wondered, "Is he teaching Caesar?"

Trande nodded, "Caesar will understand. He should be honored to be Ling Yu's personal apprentice."

The next day, His Majesty Trande sent an invitation to Rosen and Ling Yu, inviting the marshal's family to have dinner at the Imperial Palace, and formally proposed to Rosen the marriage of Prince Caesar at the dinner, hoping to set a date for the wedding as soon as possible.

Ling Yu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you have already taken a fancy to my Xiaoyuan's genes, right?"

Trander pretended to be innocent and said: "No matter what aspect, Xiao Yuan is the best candidate for the prince and concubine. More importantly, he and Caesar are in love and have reached the age of marriage. Isn't it a good kid?"

Ling Yu said calmly: "I don't care what my status is, I just want my son to be happy..."

Trander nodded with a smile: "Yes, I know that the status of princess concubine is not attractive to you at all, but Xiaoyuan's liking for Caesar has nothing to do with Caesar's background. When Caesar likes your Xiaoyuan, he doesn't Knowing that he is the son of a marshal and a general..."

Ling Yu said meaningfully: "It's not a political marriage."

Trand: "..."

Because of the record of sending his cousin Berg into a political marriage, Trand was also speechless, coughed, and then smiled: "This is definitely not a marriage, Xiaoyuan and Caesar love each other, we just act as The elders have perfected the two children. How is Caesar's character, you have observed him for so long, are you still not at ease?"

Ling Yu looked at the two people walking around the palace holding hands in the distance, and after a long silence, he said, "I have a condition."

Trander said boldly: "Speak, you're welcome."

Ling Yu said: "It's enough for Xize to beat me in chess."

Trand: "..."

Rosen: "..."

Ling Yu smiled and said: "As soon as I can beat me, I will agree to hand over my son to him."

A layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out in Trander's hands.

If there is a Go game in the empire, Ling Yu is definitely a well-deserved champion. He likes to study these weird things since he was a child, and his level of playing Go is unmatched in the entire empire.Caesar has only studied for a few days, how could he beat him?

Facing Shang Lingyu's calm gaze, Trander had no choice but to agree: "Okay...other than that, what about the bride price? Do you have any requirements?"

Ling Yu said: "It doesn't matter, my Xiaoyuan doesn't lack anything."

Trand: "..."

This is definitely the most bizarre marriage condition in the history of the empire.

You don't need anything as a dowry gift, you just need to beat your father-in-law at chess... But this is the most difficult thing, right? !

When Caesar heard the news, he almost shed tears on the spot.

※※※※※

From that day on, Caesar would come to the marshal's house every weekend to play chess with General Ling Yu.

At the beginning of playing chess with Ling Yu, he had the mentality of pleasing his father-in-law. Later, Nishizawa gradually discovered that playing chess with Ling Yu can sharpen one's will, so he devoted himself to studying chess records carefully, and carefully considered every game. How to deal with it one step at a time.

Lingyuan is not interested in playing chess. He only knows that Caesar's black pieces are cornered by his father's white pieces every time. There are very few black pieces on the whole chessboard, which looks very pitiful.On the other hand, Rosen stood beside him in a happy mood and watched the show. Marshal Rosen was in a very good mood seeing Caesar being abused by Ling Yu until he couldn't cry.

Caesar was defeated repeatedly and was killed by General Ling Yu. He went back to make up a lot of knowledge, and then ran over with a smile and continued to be abused by Ling Yu.

This has been the case for a month in a row.

Even Xiao Baiyu has learned to play Go under the force of his master.

Every time Ling Yu saw Caesar running over to play chess, he felt that this guy was wagging his tail and asking him for candies.

It's a pity that Ling Yu didn't give him candy, so he slapped him back. Caesar left with a bitter face, and came back the next day.

——What a persevering little prince.

Time flies, and it is winter in a blink of an eye. The weather in the capital is getting colder, and people start to put on thick coats when they go out.

Caesar still comes to play chess with Ling Yu every week, rain or shine. His chess skills have improved by leaps and bounds under Ling Yu's training. His patience and perseverance have leapt to a higher level. He can also play chess under the decisive attack of General Ling Yu. Stand still and deal with every step of change calmly.

The time the two played chess was getting longer and longer, often after a game of chess it was like fighting a tough battle, and a large number of brain cells would die.

A rainy weekend in December.The study was extremely quiet, and the pattering rain could be heard outside the window. Neither of the two chess players spoke, and the sound of chess pieces falling on the board was crisp and sweet.The smell of tea in the room was wafting, and after an unknown amount of time, Caesar finally managed to win Ling Yu's game with a very small margin.

Ling Yu praised: "That's right, you've made rapid progress."

Caesar hurriedly said, "I learned everything from you."

Ling Yu smiled slightly: "Don't be modest, you have a strong learning ability."

Caesar was embarrassed by the compliment.

Ling Yu put away the chessboard, stood up and said, "It's the end of the year, go back and make some preparations. After Xiaoyuan's birthday is over, you two can get married."

"...Great! Thank you uncle!" Caesar was overjoyed, as if he had won a million-dollar prize, and ran back to the palace excitedly to report the good news to his father.

Trand smiled without saying a word.

In the bedroom, Ling Yu had just come out of the shower and was sitting on the edge of the bed wiping his hair. Suddenly, Luo Sen hugged him gently from behind, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you deliberately let Caesar?"

Ling Yu was surprised and said, "Did you see it?"

Rosen came over and kissed his ear: "In order to have more common language with you, I also studied a lot of Go."

Ling Yu turned his head to avoid his kiss, and said lightly: "Caesar is very persevering, smart, and progressing very fast. After such a long time, his patience has almost been practiced, it's time to give him something sweet It's over... Besides, we are not in a hurry, our son is also in a hurry."

Luo Sen said helplessly: "Xiao Yuan is really eaten to death by Caesar. Every time he sees you abuse Caesar, he secretly feels sorry for him."

Ling Yu also said helplessly: "So, we should let go."

Luo Sen gently tightened his arms, hugged Ling Yu tightly into his arms, and said in a low voice, "As long as my son feels happy."

Ling Yu was startled, and after a while, raised the corners of her lips slightly, "That's right... as long as my son is happy."

※※※※※

December 12th, Christmas Eve, was Lingyuan's birthday.

Luo Sen took Mrs. Lin and Lin Yao to his home, and the family sang a birthday song around the birthday cake that Lin Yao made himself. Ling Yuan blew out 26 candles in one breath, closed his eyes and made a wish .

——I hope that all the people I love are safe, healthy and happy.

In the evening, Ling Yu called his son to the room, let him sit next to him, and watched him carefully.

On Christmas Eve many years ago, Ling Yu gave birth to this child while fleeing, and later had to send the young child to the barren and desolate Ryan planet... Ling Yu was separated from his son, and as a father, Luo Sen didn't even know the son existed.

For more than ten years, they were not by their son's side. Today may be the last birthday they spend with their son.

From now on, the people around Xiaoyuan will be replaced by Caesar.

Ling Yu stretched out his hand and lightly touched his son's soft black hair, his eyes were rare and gentle: "Your Majesty sent a message today that your wedding with Caesar is scheduled for January 1st, and there is still a week to go. The wedding process is complicated, so you should prepare in advance and take a close look at the process so as not to make mistakes."

Ling Yuan nodded obediently: "Yes, I know."

Rosen asked, "Xiao Yuan has been looking forward to this day for a long time, right?"

Ling Yuan scratched his head in embarrassment, but his face turned slightly red, "No!"

Ling Yu smiled and said, "If Caesar bullies you in the future, you can come home. With Dad here, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

Ling Yuan smiled and said: "I know! Dad is so powerful, Caesar must not dare to bully me."

——I was afraid that you would be bullied without knowing it, and you would be happy to help Caesar count the money if you were sold.

Ling Yu rubbed his son's head helplessly, "Okay, go to sleep."

Lingyuan happily turned around and went to sleep.

After her son left, Ling Yu sat on the edge of the bed, lowered her head thoughtfully, with a look of disappointment on her face.

Rosen sat next to him, and gently put his arms around his shoulders: "Reluctant, are you?"

Ling Yu thought for a while and said, "It seems a little bit."

Rosen comforted in a low voice: "I am also reluctant. However, the son grows up, and this day is a matter of time. Caesar is not bad, and he has gone through so many tests from you. We should trust his son's vision. You said Woolen cloth?"

Ling Yu nodded, "Yes."

Luo Sen suddenly raised Ling Yu's chin, looked into his eyes, and said seriously: "Ling Yu, you still have me."

Ling Yu: "..."

Rosen's eyes were affectionate and gentle, "I will never leave you, and I will be with you until old age."

Doesn't he feel nauseous when he says such a thing?

Ling Yu couldn't help but smiled, relaxed her body, and leaned into the man's warm embrace with peace of mind.

—Yes, you and me.I will never leave you until we grow old together.
