In the afternoon, after Long Jiu changed into his training uniform and went to class, Xiao Tingyun also returned to the Prince's Mansion on the Imperial Star through the portal of the teleportation array.
Although Xiao Tingyun had just joined the Military Aircraft Department and held a walking position, Tan Su deliberately wanted to train him and handed over many important matters in the Military Aircraft Department to him. Therefore, Xiao Tingyun's daily workload increased. More than doubled.
Fortunately, Xiao Tingyun also had many capable staff around him. He dedicated a small building in the prince's residence and set it up as an office. The prince's staff work here during the day, and it becomes a The prince's private court meeting.
Xiao Tingyun, who had just returned to the Prince's Mansion, turned around and came here.
"Your Highness."
After seeing Xiao Tingyun come in, the staff stood up one after another.
Xiao Tingyun looked at them and smiled slightly, and said politely: "Thank you for your hard work, everyone. I just asked the butler to prepare some refreshments. Everyone, please take a rest first."
Today's staff are not the kind of staff in ancient times who had their lives and fortunes controlled by their masters. When necessary, they had to sacrifice their lives and blood for their masters. Although their loyalty is worthy of recognition, when it comes to it, it actually has nothing to do with the contract. Assistant is almost the same.
Xiao Tingyun has always been generous and polite to his people. His staff have been with him for many years, so they naturally understand his temperament. As long as he does not miss the mark when it comes to business, the Crown Prince does not pay much attention to any rules when dealing with them. .
When they heard that the prince asked the butler to prepare afternoon tea for them, the staff all laughed.
"Since being recalled by His Highness from Tingyun Star to Imperial Capital Star, my weight has increased dramatically."
"Who says it's not the case? I was weighed last night. How much do you think I've grown in the past few days? Good guy! I've gained eight pounds of flesh."
"The main reason is that the food in the Prince's Mansion is so good. Is it possible for this weight to skyrocket?"
Listening to the staff's self-joking words, the smile on Xiao Tingyun's face deepened a lot. He glanced at all of them one by one, as if he was carefully sizing up their body shapes, and then nodded in confirmation and said: " You have gained a lot of weight, so starting from tomorrow, I will ask the housekeeper to prepare weight loss meals for you?"
As a result, everyone who was talking about how much weight they had gained just now expressed their rejection after hearing this.
"Oh, why are you serious, Your Highness? We just want to praise the food and treatment in the Prince's Mansion, but we don't want to actually lose weight."
"That's right, that's right, I'd rather eat and drink well and gain weight than eat those unpalatable diet meals just to lose weight."
"It doesn't matter if we are a little fat. Being fat means we are strong. This gives us strength to work every day."
Xiao Tingyun was originally joking with them, but when he saw that they all had expressions of bitterness and hatred after hearing that they wanted to eat a weight-loss meal, he chuckled softly: "Then let's just keep going as usual."
The staff all laughed when they heard this, and the butler also brought the afternoon tea that had been prepared one by one.
While drinking afternoon tea and eating refreshments, the staff did not forget to talk about business.
"Your Highness, what's going on with the Third Prince?"
Who says the staff don't gossip? They just can't hold it in. They've been holding it in for almost an afternoon now, and now they can finally discuss it together.
Xiao Tingyun knew they would ask this. After all, when the news spread to the Interstellar Network, they were really shocked.
Moreover, Xiao Tingyun did not hide it from them. The farce at the entrance of the Royal Academy also had his hand in it.
Seeing the staff looking at him curiously, Xiao Tingyun smiled lightly and said, "The Queen has taken action."
Although the main pusher for this incident involving the third prince was the second prince Xiao Xingze, Xiao Tingyun also contributed to it, and his purpose was very different from Xiao Xingze's.
He was not targeting the third prince Xiao Xingyang, but the queen behind Xiao Xingyang.
The staff naturally knew this, so after hearing that the queen had taken action, they couldn't help but ask: "Then should we do something else?"
Xiao Tingyun shook his head and smiled: "We don't have to do anything else, we just need to watch the excitement from behind."
With Xiao Xingze taking action, they would only have to watch the show. They would not get their hands dirty, nor would they get involved when the second prince and the queen were biting each other.
The staff thought about it carefully and agreed with Xiao Tingyun's approach. However, some people couldn't help but sigh: "It's the unlucky girl and the unborn child in her belly. With the queen's methods, she will not keep them." they."
Xiao Tingyun smiled and glanced at the staff member who was speaking. This staff member's name was Zhou Jing. He was not very old. He had just become a father recently and gave birth to a daughter. Therefore, his father's love was so overwhelming that he had nowhere to put it, even on the road. The kind that whenever he sees other people's children, he would stop and play with them with all his heart.
Zhou Jinghui said this, and Xiao Tingyun quite understood his current mentality, but understanding was understanding, but Xiao Tingyun still said: "From the moment she had selfish motives and wanted to be the prince's concubine based on her mother's worth and her son's worth, it was doomed. She and the baby in her belly will not survive."
Zhou Jing also understood this truth. He just felt that it was a pity that the child had to die before he even had a chance to come to this world and take a look.
Seeing the intolerance on Zhou Jing's face, Xiao Tingyun reminded lightly: "Zhou Jing, maybe the child is innocent, but what caused all this was his mother's greed and the people behind it. Although I I can be considered one of the promoters, and I have the ability to save him, but can you guarantee that this child will not be another tragedy after he survives?"
With a mother like that, with royal blood, but no identity that matches the blood, and is not even recognized or expected by others, even if he is allowed to survive, the child can only be abandoned.
If he is lucky, he can be raised well by the woman's family, or given up for adoption. If he is unlucky, he will be taken advantage of by someone with good intentions because of his identity, and he will live in the intrigues of others. Rather than doing this, it is better to let him He died in this way.
Zhou Jing is not a stubborn person who can't turn around, so he also understands that even if the child can survive, he probably won't survive. He said calmly: "Your Highness, what I understand is that I just softened my heart for a moment."
Xiao Tingyun smiled: "Being a father is different. Your daughter has a good father."
When he mentioned his daughter, Zhou Jing suddenly showed a silly smile that only a dad could have. One look at his silly smile showed that he had a daughter and everything was ready.
The other staff members also laughed and joked after seeing his appearance, making Zhou Jing, the new dad, look embarrassed but couldn't help but laugh.
After everyone made fun of Zhou Jing, they continued to talk about what happened just now.
"Now that the Queen has taken action, will there be some movement from the Second Prince's side soon?"
Xiao Tingyun took the coffee at hand and took a sip gently, then smiled and said: "It's almost time. The queen's people controlled the woman and locked her up in a private residence outside the palace, and in that private residence Outside, in addition to our people watching, there are also people from the second prince."
Zhang Xiancong, one of the staff members, hissed: "The second prince wants to bring down the queen because of her murder? Is this possible? After all, the queen didn't do it herself, and she didn't even show her face. Just based on this Even if you want to bring down the Queen, the Queen can also accuse the Second Prince of slander."
Zhou Jing recovered from the happy daddy state and said seriously: "Although this move may not bring down the Queen, it can also make the Queen lose a piece of meat. So what if the Queen didn't do it herself, and what if she didn't show up. , that private house is in her name, so it has something to do with her. Once the second prince gets the evidence that the girl was killed, and then spreads it to the interstellar network, the public opinion on the interstellar network and the doubts of the ministers in the court meeting, Even His Majesty the Emperor cannot excuse the Queen. Even if His Majesty wanted to protect the Queen, he would be forced to deal with the Queen due to public opinion and doubts and give everyone an explanation."
Another staff member, Li Jiang, did not agree with it and said: "What if His Majesty wants to protect the Queen despite all the pressure? This is not the first time His Majesty has done such a thing. Not long ago, His Majesty met him in the Villalvi Star Territory. Didn’t His Majesty just let the matter of the attack go by without the thunder and rain?”
Speaking of the attack on Xiao Tingyun in the Villarvi Star Territory, all the staff were filled with anger. The evidence of the attack on the prince was presented at the court meeting. As a result, the emperor recalled the Third Legion. The legion commander demoted him, and then nothing happened.
An incident as big as the attack on the emotional prince has turned the page?
Only one regiment commander was demoted, but that regiment commander still stayed in the military headquarters, and then there was no follow-up investigation or anything like that?
Compared with the anger of the staff, Xiao Tingyun himself, as the person involved, was very calm and calm, as if he was not the one who was attacked in the Villarvi Nebula.
Xiao Tingyun looked at the staff who were aroused with anger and resentment, and smiled slowly: "Everyone, I'm off topic."
The staff members who were full of anger were suffocated after hearing this, especially when they saw the careless smile on the face of His Royal Highness, they were extremely confused.
Zhou Jing said helplessly: "Your Highness, why do you have such a good temper? We are all so angry, but you, the client, are not angry at all."
Xiao Tingyun raised his eyebrows and looked at him when he heard this, and asked, "Do I have a good temper?"
Zhou Jing: "......"
Suddenly I was asked!
Others were also a little choked by Xiao Tingyun's question.
To be honest, His Highness the Prince's temper is really not very good. Even though he always smiles and treats people and things with a gentle attitude, only those who really know him know that His Highness the Prince's temper has never been bad. It's better, he just pretends better than anyone else.
Moreover, His Royal Highness himself is very self-aware, and he never flaunts himself as a good-tempered person in front of his own people.
Zhou Jing looked around awkwardly, not daring to look into the prince's eyes or answer his question.
Others also began to change the topic. After all, the question just now was too embarrassing and suffocating for them, the prince's staff.
Xiao Tingyun chatted to death with just one sentence, but he didn't care. After slowly drinking the coffee in the cup, he put down the cup, stood up and said, "I will take back the official documents that will be used at the meeting tomorrow to process. Now, you should do whatever you want after you have had enough rest."
The staff stood up one after another and watched Xiao Tingyun pack up the official documents that would be used at tomorrow's court meeting, and then watched him slowly leave the small building with a pile of documents in his arms.
As soon as the prince left, the staff all let out a sigh of relief, then looked at Zhou Jing and began to attack him.
"Zhou Jing, are you so happy that you became a father?"
"Zhou Jing, as a human being, you can't be too conscience-stricken. How did you say those words?"
"Even if you want to flatter me, you can't unconscionably say that His Highness has a good temper."
It is said that His Royal Highness the Prince has a good temper, and these staff are the first to disagree!
Zhou Jing, who was criticized by everyone, also had a look on his face, and spat at his colleagues: "I said it smoothly, not because of my conscience. Take a look at His Highness's normal appearance. Do you dare to say that you are not affected by the appearance he showed? Have you ever been misled?"
Everyone was suffocated again.
It really happened!
Looking at the suffocated expressions on his colleagues' faces, Zhou Jing hummed: "So how can you blame me? It can only be said that His Highness is too deceptive."
Speaking of the strange and confusing nature of His Highness the Crown Prince, everyone complained bitterly.
"Who says it's not the case? I was deceived by His Highness's gentle and elegant appearance."
"Who says it's not? +1, I was also deceived by His Highness's gentle and elegant appearance."
"+100086, me too."
"Who hasn't? When I first met His Highness, I was absolutely amazed. I was impressed by his elegant temperament and attracted by his strength..."
"I will miss my life when I see His Highness..."
Everyone said that they were crying bitterly. They thought he was a gentle and elegant young master at first sight, but after they got on the prince's ship, they realized that the gentle and elegant young master was a scam. In fact, this noble young master was just a wolf killer!
