You can't afford to hurt a dead house involved in a palace fight [Interstellar]

What the hell is this!It even made a sound!

Guan Shao was taken aback, and bounced up with a whoosh.The round little thing was still held in his right hand, and he brought it up in front of his eyes all of a sudden, and swayed elastically.

Green, it turned out to be green.

"Chirp..." The little thing has two round eyes on its green elastic body, which looks wet.Probably because it hurt a little from being pinched just now, it seemed a little wronged.

Guan Shao was completely stunned.

A green, round, springy, jelly-like, living creature?

No, no, if you look closely, it's not completely round, and there is a soft point on top of the little thing's head, which is being firmly held by Guan Shao in his hand.In any case, it was a creature Guan Shao had never seen before.After all, he has been living on the earth before, and this should be a special species only on other planets?

Guan Shao shook his right hand up and down, and the little thing bounced again.

"Slime?" Guan Shao whispered to himself.

"..." The little thing blinked tears, and the look in his eyes suddenly changed, looking at him vigilantly.

Guan Shao pressed his forehead with his left hand, and his dazed brain, which had just woken up, finally started to work slowly.Yes, although this is the first time he has seen this kind of creature, according to the books he has read and the games he has played, he can be sure that this green jelly creature is the legendary slime, the most legendary creature in the universe. Common lower organisms.

But why was this slime crushed under him?

Guan Shao gradually recalled what happened before he fell asleep, and remembered that he was originally dating Prince Amber.

So he looked around, "Where's the prince?"

"Chirp!" The slime became agitated for some reason, struggling desperately, trying to escape from Guan Shao's grasp.

"Don't make trouble." Guan Shao directly pressed the slime on the chair.

When he woke up, the prince was gone, but suddenly there was a slime beside him?Guan Shao seriously thought about what the situation would be, and finally slowly connected the plot together in a reasonable and reasonable way.

The prince must have left on his own after seeing him falling asleep, and this slime happened to run over again!

"Choo, chirp, chirp, chirp!" Slime didn't know what Guan Shao was thinking, even though he was roughly pressed on the chair like this, he still refused to be quiet, and was still struggling desperately.

The slime finally gradually escaped from Guan Shao's clutches, but suddenly made a click.

Slime froze.Guan Shao looked down at his palm, and saw that the soft tip that originally grew on the top of the slime's head was still firmly held in his palm, but because of the slime's hard struggle just now... it broke off .

"Chirp!" Slime looked like he was about to cry.

"……I did not do it on purpose."

"Chirp chirp! Chirp chirp chirp!"

"Okay, don't panic, I'll see if I can pick it up for you." Guan Shao said and put the soft tip on the wound on the top of Slime's head. He licked his fingertips with his tongue, rubbed saliva on the fracture to increase the viscosity, then reinstalled it and tried it, and it seemed that it was much firmer.

And the slime's self-healing ability is indeed admirable, but the broken marks of the wound will soon disappear invisible.

But this slime still looked so heartbroken, its already green body turned greener, and it was still shaking.

"Where do you live?" In order to make up for his mistake just now, Guan Shao was extremely gentle, "Whose pet is it?"

"Chirp!" Slime didn't appreciate it at all, and jumped into the flowers beside the bench, crying and ran away.

Guan Shao scratched his hair and had to give up.Then he yawned again, staying up late was really bad, even though he had just slept in a place where he shouldn't have slept, he was still sleepy.

I don't know if the prince is angry because he fell asleep... Forget it, he is really sleepy, so let's worry about it tomorrow.

Guan Shao yawned and left the royal sky garden, nodded and greeted the patrolling guards outside the entrance, floated all the way back to his residence, opened the door, walked in, closed the door, and floated to his bed , fell headlong on it, hugged the quilt, but fell asleep again after a while.

At this time, Muli, the old attendant who had taken care of the prince since he was a child, was walking around anxiously in the prince's room.

He knew that the prince had gone on a date with Guan Shao tonight, and the prince had specifically told no one to disturb him.However, the clock had already struck midnight, but the prince hadn't come back yet, which made Muli very worried.

Suddenly there was a rustling sound from a corner.Muli lowered his head, and finally saw a group of green figures covered in leaves squeezed in from the corner dedicated to slimes.

"God bless." Muli finally landed a huge stone in his heart, and happily walked over to hug Slime, "Your Highness, you really worry me so much."

"Chirp..." The slime looked weak.Compared with the moment when he just ran away from Guan Shao, it became a little more sluggish.

Muli couldn't help but feel that Slime's body temperature was slightly higher than usual, "Your Highness? Are you sick?"

"Chirp chirp! chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp!"

Even though Muli has been taking care of Prince Amber for decades, when he heard such a passage all of a sudden, he still couldn't understand it smoothly.Muli had no choice but to sigh, stuffed the slime into the quilt, and patted his palms twice, "Okay, Your Royal Highness, you should rest now, and we'll talk about it tomorrow morning."

"Jiujiujiu..." The prince thought that Guan Shao had already seen him like this, so he couldn't sleep peacefully no matter what.

But only a moment later, the prince still closed his eyes, and the whole slime fell silent.Only occasionally there are one or two faint "chirp" sounds, very light and small.

Muli stood guard for a while, and he was relieved to see that the prince had really stabilized.

He wanted to go back to rest, but he was a little uneasy.

Muli stretched out his hand and touched the slime in the quilt again, his expression changed drastically.The temperature has become higher again, is this a fever!Slime also has a fever?

No, no, what's more serious is that Muli touched it carefully, and found that there was a small round bump at the place where the slime's round body connected with the soft tip on the top of its head!What is this again?

Muli couldn't calm down any longer.

In the dead of night, the guards in the imperial uterus saw Muli suddenly rushing out of the prince's bedroom, carrying a round package the size of a pillow in his arms, rushing out of the entire imperial uterus, and heading straight to the imperial palace in the east.

Muli turned to a remote corner of the imperial palace and knocked on the door of a strange building.

This building lives in the royal physician of His Majesty Emperor Saya, one of the only four people in the universe who knows the secret of the prince, Physician Beja, a plump and tall woman.

"It doesn't look sick." Beja spent several hours in the middle of the night, doing a body check on Slime with all her heart, and finally came to this conclusion, her face was not very good when she spoke, "But the truth seems to be more serious. Oops, he might be sprouting."

"Sprout?"

"One of the ways slimes reproduce," Beja said.

Molly's face turned green.

"According to the empire's research on other slimes, the vast majority of slimes reproduce asexually, sprout once a week, and produce one or more offspring. It is because of this terrible reproductive ability that slimes Mu can occupy so many low-level planets." Beja said, "But His Royal Highness is different."

"Yes." Muli said quickly, "This kind of thing has never happened to the prince."

"The prince cannot reproduce asexually. This may be because half of the genes come from His Majesty the Emperor." Beja said, "And his current appearance may be due to the dna of other individuals."

"How can the prince have the DNA of other individuals?" Muli asked hurriedly.

"For example." Beja took a breath, "Someone injected his own body fluid into the body of His Royal Highness."

Muli didn't reply for a while, he was already petrified.

While talking, the night gradually dissipated, and the first ray of sunlight finally cast down in the morning.Beja heard a soft sound on the hospital bed, and went over to see that Prince Amber had returned to his daytime appearance.

But Amber still had a fever, and he seemed much weaker than usual.

"Your Highness." Muli hurried to the bed, "What happened last night?"

"Guan Shao." Amber gritted his teeth, "I was seen by Guan Shao last night."

"It turned out to be him!" Muli was extremely indignant, "I really can't see that he is such a beast that will take advantage of people's danger!"

A beast that takes advantage of people?Amber didn't hear the previous conversation between the two, and had no idea what it was talking about.

Mli asked again, "Is it just him?"

Amber nodded.

"I understand. Your Highness, please rest at ease and recuperate. You don't need to worry about anything." Muli bowed to the prince, "I know how to deal with this kind of thing, just leave it to me as before."

Guan Shao was not the first person who accidentally discovered the prince's secret, but except for Muli, Beja, His Majesty the Emperor, and Prince Amber himself, all those who knew the secret were dead.

"...Are you going to kill him?" the prince asked, "Must it be?"

"Your Highness, protecting you is the mission entrusted to me by His Majesty the Emperor. The death order His Majesty gave at the beginning, your secret cannot be known by any other living person. This is not only for His Majesty the Emperor, but also for you." Li saluted him again, "I know you won't be able to bear it, so just leave this kind of thing to me."

Then Muli turned around and left step by step.

The prince stared blankly at Muli's back.

He knew very well that Muli's decision was correct. Thanks to Muli's dedication to doing this kind of thing for him, he was able to be the first prince smoothly.

Just as he knew very well that Guan Shao did nothing wrong, it was Amber himself who forgot to pay attention to the time yesterday, and it was Amber himself who took chances, and Guan Shao should not be responsible for Amber's own mistakes.But it’s okay, there were many people who did not make any mistakes, and still died at Muli’s hands, including those Amber trusted and loved when he was a child.

Amber is used to it.

But... as expected, it still doesn't work!

Amber finally lifted the quilt and fell to the ground, gritted his teeth and chased after him.Fortunately, Muli had just left, and at his speed there was still time.
