When the job was robbed...

The days at Windsor College were very ordinary. The shell Qiao Ting made for herself this time was very ordinary, with short brown hair, black eyes, slightly rough skin, small eyes, high nose, and thick lips. You won't want to take a second look.

Qiao Ting enrolled in the course of the nobility, and the students in the same class as him were all noble young masters and ladies. Seeing Qiao Ting's crooked melon and split dates, he naturally wanted to teach him a few lessons. Qiao Ting was not in the mood or motivation to fight with them. Every time he met, he was submissive. , Disappeared after class, so that these angry young masters and ladies did not leave, and after a few times, no one paid any attention to Qiao Ting.

Basic etiquette, pedigree history, origin of nobility, code of nobility, distribution of nobility... After a lot of courses, Qiao Ting immersed himself in learning eagerly. If he wants to make a living in the human world, he must have a good understanding of the human history that controls this continent. , among which aristocratic history is particularly important.

Qiao Ting is most satisfied with the library of Wenshide Business School. Although it is definitely not as large as the collection of books at the Imperial Magic Academy, most of the people who come to study are upstarts, and they all have a fanatical attachment to becoming a nobleman. There are so many books.

Qiao Ting spends every day in the library and hardly ever comes home at night.Well, even if he went back to the dormitory, there would probably be no one there.

The dormitory provided by the school is shared by four people. If you have money, you can live in a room alone. The other three people who live with Qiao Ting are the children of nouveau riche, basically do not live in the school, and Qiao Ting is too lazy to go back to the dormitory. When I get tired from reading in the library, I just lean against the bookshelf and sleep. When I wake up, I eat an apple and go to class, and then continue reading.

Winsted's library is very large, with many bookshelves stacked on top of each other, basically no one can see Qiao Ting who stays in the innermost part, but everything... There are always exceptions.

Ilde has been observing that person for a long time. Since the beginning of school, this person has been reading in the library every day. During class, he always stepped on the bell at the last second before entering the classroom, and he was the first one to leave after class. A strong curiosity arose in his heart.

As the eldest son of Duke Tulip, one of the four great dukes of the empire, and the only son, Ild was going to study magic at the Imperial Academy of Magic, but his mother said that if he wanted to learn magic, he could hire a tutor as Tulip. The Duke's next successor must have a clear understanding of the psychology and needs of the people under his jurisdiction.

He can ignore or even criticize those untouchables in his eyes, but before that, he must clearly understand what the consequences will be if he does so.

That's why he came to this ordinary Wenshide Business School to experience the thoughts and psychology of upstarts, ordinary civilians and down-and-out nobles according to his mother's request.

The courses in the college are completely dispensable to him, and the students he knows also have low taste. He can't understand why these noble ladies are all thinking about becoming the mistress of a big man, or giving birth to a son as a bargaining chip to enter The family of high-ranking nobles...

Don't they know that the marriage of noble ladies and ladies is completely based on the needs of the family, as long as the family exists, their status will not be affected, and at the same time they are still the hub connecting the two families, shouldering the important responsibility of family information and communication, it is impossible Reckless?

It takes decades to build trust between two families, but it only takes one sentence to destroy it.

Ilde dealt with those 'ladies' with brain problems every day with a smile on his face, while thinking in his heart, if he wanted to harm other families, he might as well send a few of these women, the lethality would be absolutely powerful.

After staying for only half a month, Ilde wanted to go home irritablely, but it was a pity that I told my mother about this idea, my father smiled and said nothing, but my mother said meaningfully, "Il, although you The observation is correct, but I will not allow you to go home."

"why!?"

"Because about [-]% of the nobles in the entire empire are people like this, even if you want to stand out from the crowd, you must first learn to be patient, otherwise you will be abandoned by the entire nobles."

Ild couldn't believe it, "Do I have to lower my style and taste for those dirty quails?!"

The Duchess Tulip smiled gracefully, "There will always be a black swan inside the ugly duckling. Children, you have to learn to open your eyes and find the light while seeing the filth."

...so this is the black swan that mother talked about? !

Looking at the man curled up in his cloak and sleeping soundly, with a few books scattered around him, Ild's eyes were full of curiosity.

He walked slowly to the tea-haired man, "Student, excuse me."

The brown-haired man opened his eyes in a trance, "Ah...you..."

Ild's tone is calm, and the lingua franca he speaks has the unique aristocratic Puli-style accent of the Feru Empire. The arrogance and nobility are deeply contained in it, showing his own difference.

"I thought it was a library."

The brown-haired man blinked, then smiled, "Yes, the library, I just lost myself in the sea of ​​books and forgot the time."

Ild looked at the apple core at the brown-haired man's feet, and subtly repeated, "Forget the time?"

The brown-haired man was a little embarrassed. He quickly picked up the apple cores on the ground and stuffed them into his sleeves, then quickly adjusted his disguise, and said with a smile, "Qiao Ting, a first-year freshman."

"Il." Ild didn't give his full name, he quickly glanced at the book in Jordin's hand, and said calmly, "Although Kabalad's "Noble Genealogy" is famous, it contains a description of the origin of the family emblem. But not exhaustive."

Qiao Ting's eyes lit up, "Not detailed? Then he might as well not write."

The family emblems of the nobles are slightly similar, but if you misread an olive branch or a bouquet of redbuds, and foolishly go forward to strike up a conversation... you will only get destruction.

"Then I wonder if you have any good suggestions?"

Yard pondered for a while, he looked carefully at the nearby bookshelves, took out a book and handed it to Qiao Ting, "Maybe this one will help you."

Qiao Ting took it and glanced at it casually, and said with a smile, "Ah, thank you."

The corners of Ild's mouth curled up slightly, then he nodded and turned to leave.

Qiao Ting was thoughtful, this person... came here just to tell him that he read the wrong book?

In the next few days, Erde would come to harass Qiaoting once in a few days, which made Qiaoting baffled. He touched his ugly face, so he wouldn't be looking for him, right? !

Putting aside that nonsense reason, then...Is Ild trying to recruit himself?

But speaking of which family does this Ild belong to? !

Qiao Ting couldn't be sure to pay attention, and he didn't dare to let Qiao Mao run around in this kind of place, so he decided to keep the same and stay the same, reading books in the library every day.

As Ild came to him frequently, the topics between the two gradually deepened.

"Most of the nobles in the Seaman Empire originally migrated from the Feilu Empire. All the nobles who were persecuted in the September Autumn Killing Movement all ran to the Seaman Empire. Happy to accept those nobles."

Qiao Ting was thoughtful, "Then those nobles also came back later."

"Yes, going there is just an asylum. For the nobles, the root is still in the Huayu Plain." Erde glanced at Qiao Ting casually, "You seem to be very interested in the nobles."

Qiao Ting smiled, "Not interested, but curious."

Erde looked at Qiao Ting deeply, disapproving of his answer.

"The royal family of the Seaman Empire also migrated from the Huayu Plain?"

"How could that be?!" Elder said in amazement, "It is said that the founding emperor of the Seaman Empire is a descendant of humans and barbarians. They have lived in the northern plateau for generations, and were ridiculed by other nobles as barbaric nobles."

"But they are the royal family of the Seaman Empire."

"So what?!" The corner of Ild's mouth was slightly raised, with a trace of coldness, "A nobleman who doesn't want to be an emperor is not a good nobleman."

Qiao Ting raised his eyebrows, "Why did you tell me?"

"It can be seen that you have your own goals." Erde said confidently, "But I personally think that it will be very difficult to achieve your goals with your own abilities."

This is true. Qiao Ting wants to truly break into the upper class of the nobles. It may take many years to thoroughly investigate the matter of Qiao Lai back then, plus the account with the Yeliman family and the possible existence of dark elves...

Jotin: "What do you want?"

Elder: "What can you give me?!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, they were both smart people, so it was easy to talk.

The two left the school one after the other, and a carriage was parked at the door.

Elder got into the carriage first, followed by Jordin. He glanced at the plain carriage and exclaimed, "It's a great deal to use solid iron wood to make the carriage."

Elder smiled, "This hard iron wood has been specially treated, not many people can understand it."

"If I can't even understand this, it proves that you are too low-level." Qiao Ting restrained her laughter and said seriously, "Ild Rochester, the future Lord Tulip Duke."

Erde's smile deepened, and he looked Qiaoding up and down, "How do you tell?"

Qiao Ting took out a bottle of wine and two cups from the cabinet in the carriage. The golden wine exudes a charming aroma, "Only in the territory of the Duke of Tulips can this kind of mellow flower wine be produced. Autumn is coming to an end. The last wave of Huajiu is in short supply in the market."

He pointed to the purity label on the flower wine, "And what you have here is the purest."

——As an elf, his nose is his biggest cheat =V=

Elder: "..."

The author has something to say: Little Theater: Fia: What?Brother, did you find that stealing Dawn Elf without relying on the sub-artifact detector? !
