Prince Reza's Palace.
"How is your second brother?" Prince Resa half-hidden in the darkness, his eyes glowing uncertainly under the light.
"They put him in the Vandel Royal Prison. I wanted to go in and take care of him, but they kicked me out." Lan Yu said with her head lowered, her eyes still a little red.
"How is his injury?" Prince Reza asked.
"Second brother, he suffered heavy magic damage. If he cannot be treated in time, he will probably hurt his bones and muscles." Lan Yu looked worried, and then said with a look of unbearability: "Also, his face... "
"Well, I can only hope that he can survive this time." Prince Reza sighed, "A man's face will be ruined if it is ruined. He doesn't rely on this to make a living anyway."
"But in that prison, he had no one to take care of him. He was so seriously injured that he might become ill," Lan Yu said.
"If I offend your second brother this time, I will definitely get my debt back." The prince said gloomily.
"Who could have given the magic potion to the second brother? With the second brother's cultivation level, it is impossible for him not to detect the ordinary magic potion." Lan Yu frowned.
"This is what my father can't figure out," the prince said. "With the second brother's skills, who can get close to him? So how did he fall into his trap?"
Lan Yu thought for a while and suddenly said: "I remember Teacher Fei Yue said before that potions refined with some colorless and odorless raw materials can also achieve colorless and odorless effects, but the process is very complicated and requires the level of a potion master. Only strength can create it.”
"Colorless and odorless magic potion?" the prince pondered, "Then after much deliberation, I can only do it on the equipment that was handed in."
"It can only be like this." Lan Yu affirmed, "When my second brother and I were together at noon, he was still fine. Why does he seem to be a different person when he comes on stage?"
"Herod will check over there at the Pillow Sword Society. But since the other party is well prepared and the potion is colorless and odorless, I guess nothing can be found," the prince said.
"Judging from the symptoms of the second brother on the field today, the properties of this potion are to over-stimulate the nerves, making people lose their will, full of fighting spirit, and even full of murderous intentions. From this point on, we need to refine this medicine There are only a dozen kinds of raw materials for effective potions. Among them, there are only a few that are colorless and odorless. These colorless and odorless materials are very rare, so you can check them from this aspect." Lan Yu analyzed.
"As expected of Master Fei Yue, he always praises you for your hard work," the prince said with a wry smile. "Your two eldest brothers and I are not as proficient as you in this potion. You can write the names of those materials to father, and I will send someone to check. .”
Lan Yu nodded.
"However, compared to rescuing your second brother, my father is actually more worried about another thing." Prince Resa pinched the eyebrows on both sides, obviously feeling a little tired.
Lan Yu looked at her father in confusion.
"I'm worried about my father, will your Majesty take this opportunity to wipe out my Resa family in one fell swoop." The prince whispered, "What if your Majesty doesn't care at all who is the mastermind behind this matter and is determined to do it?" What will happen to the lives of our whole family?"
He was obviously not asking Lan Yu, but himself.
"Master Piro's strength in potions can be said to be at its peak. Could it be that the matter today is between Your Majesty and Master Piro...?" Lan Yu's idea was very broad.
Prince Resa couldn't help but shook his head after hearing this, "I am also a father, and I don't believe that Your Majesty would make fun of the princess's life. Besides, I have followed Your Majesty for so many years, and I still understand His Majesty's character. He is not so vicious. people."
"Just like a father, I will never joke with the lives of the three of you." Resa looked at the daughter in front of her who was impeccable in both appearance and talent, and her eyes were filled with pride.
"So, good daughter, no matter what happens this time, my father will have to send you and your second brother back to Maine even if you risk your life. When you get to Maine, the three of you will join forces, and Saliushi will The sensual gangsters can't do anything to you." Prince Resa had already prepared for the worst.
"Father..." Lan Yu couldn't help but her eyes turned red again, but she didn't want to shed tears at this moment.
"Maybe the situation is not so bad. That's what my father said." The prince consoled him.
Lan Yu nodded slightly.
"Good daughter, if we can get back to Maine by chance this time, just forget about Alvin." Compared to the last time, the prince's tone this time was much gentler.
Lan Yu trembled after hearing these words, covered her mouth and nodded silently.

After returning from the Pillow Sword Club, Alvin lay in bed all night, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. He wanted to know the news about Onian and Prince Resa's palace, and he was very anxious thinking about it.
As his genius dawned, he ran to Earl Philip's room to get some information from his father.
Unlike Alvin, Earl Philip did not have the habit of snoozing. When Alvin broke in, the Earl was already admiring the morning view of Salyuhi in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
"You're here." The count didn't look back at Alvin, as if he knew Alvin would come.
Alvin said "hmm" and didn't ask.
"Ask whatever you want." The Earl was not as coy as Alvin.
"Father, do you know how the princess is doing?" Alvin asked carefully, "I heard that she was seriously injured."
"I don't know either." The Earl answered simply, "Where can I find out."
Alvin was silent.
"However, I think he must have been rescued." The Earl turned around and looked at Alvin and said.
Alvin looked puzzled.
"If you think about it carefully, the city was so quiet this night, and there was no movement at all in the morning, can't you deduce it?" the count explained.
It is no secret that the king regards Princess Onian as his favorite. If the princess is assassinated, the king will definitely be furious, and there will be no peace this night. Alvin was relieved when his father mentioned it.
"Are you in love with the princess?" The earl looked at Alvin calmly.
Alvin was immediately stopped by the question and hesitated for a long time not knowing how to answer. Because in his mind, his father basically rarely cares about his personal affairs.
"Your Majesty will not agree. You should give up as soon as possible." The earl's tone was very relaxed.
Alvin looked embarrassed, not to mention that he and Onian hadn't developed to that stage yet, why did they just move His Majesty out.
"If you don't agree, just don't agree. What else can you do?" Alvin finally spoke, with a rather rogue tone.
The earl looked at his son amusedly upon hearing this. Alvin felt his heart tremble at the sight of him.
"That's all, you do have quite a... legacy." The Earl looked at Alvin and sighed.
Alvin just thought it was his father thinking about his mother who had passed away long ago, and did not answer his words. Alvin has never had any idea about the word mother. There is not even a portrait of her in the count's palace, and no one has ever talked to Alvin about the countess. What's rare is that the Earl has never had the thought of renewing his relationship in so many years. Alvin still admires this.
"Then... what should we do about the young lady from the Prince's Palace?" The Earl seemed to be particularly interested in Alvin's affairs today. "Do you still want to ask about the situation in the Prince's Palace?"
"Uh, yes, father." Alvin nodded honestly, "How's it going at the Prince's Mansion?"
"Prince Reza is not the kind of person who is so crazy as to instigate his children to assassinate the princess at the pillow sword meeting." The count said calmly, "His Majesty may have been angry at the time, but he will definitely figure it out later."
Alvin felt a little relieved when his father said this.
"However, it is one thing to understand. How to do it is another matter." The earl looked at Alvin with a profound look in his eyes.
"Father, what do you mean...?" Alvin finally understood a little about the darkness in the court.
"You have to remember that in the political arena, facts often don't matter." The earl's words had a profound impact on Alvin in the future, and then he said with a sarcastic tone: "Only historians have confidence in the authenticity of history. There are pursuits, who cares about these things among Machiavellians.”
Alvin couldn't digest what his father said for a while. He always felt that the old man in his family was inconspicuous and had an "aristocratic social phobia". He often doubted whether his father had something inside him, and now he finally got confirmation.
The Earl saw through Alvin's thoughts, "Do you think your father doesn't move around very often, so how can he know so much?"
Alvin could only nodded.
The count turned his face to the window, recalling the past, and after a while he sighed with a smile: "Someone once told me that this Salyuhi is for small fish and shrimps to play with."
Alvin clicked his tongue when he heard this.
"But the court will always belong to those thousand-year-old tortoises and thousand-year-old tortoises. My father can neither be a tortoise nor a tortoise, and he is too lazy to play with the little fish and shrimps." The count said calmly, and then changed the topic: "But , you must remember to always be careful of those turtle bastards."
Alvin nodded in understanding, as if the only thing he could do now was nod. Astonished, he felt in a trance, as if from birth to now, the words his father had said to him in the past were not as much as what he said today.
"This matter is not simple. If Prince Resa is unjustly accused, then the identity of the mastermind of this matter must be extraordinary. Don't run out these two days. The college is also on holiday. Stay at home." The count then He explained, "What is happening now is not something you, a child, can change."
Alvin had no way to refute, he hesitated for a while, but then asked for no reason: "Did your mother say that to you?"
The earl's heart froze. He watched the sun rise outside the window. He felt a little relieved for no reason, but he never answered Alvin.
