Chapter 21 21: The Empire’s Invitation
When Shuitian got the news, he was also a little puzzled. Why was he here again?
I really don't want to deal with him, it would be fine if he is the real prince of the empire, but that ordinary face hides the successor of the angel.
No matter what, I still wanted to meet him, so I immediately followed the teacher to the reception room.
It just so happens that the first teaching building of the college is the reception room, and the conference room is also here.
Shuitian's unhurried pace made the teacher secretly anxious. Fortunately, the distance was not very far. After sending him in, the teacher hurriedly left here to notify Liu Erlong.
The teacher who can be on duty here must be someone Liu Erlong and Shuitian trust. Of course, when the Crown Prince comes, he must notify the nominal dean.
Shuitian walked into the living room very politely and put his right hand on his left chest and said, "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
This is just a hint. With his Contra strength, he doesn't need to be too polite.
Xue Qinghe stood up quickly and said, "Brother Shuitian, please don't try to hurt me. I'll disturb you if I come uninvited."
Both his apparent age and his actual age are younger than Shuitian, so she deserves to be called "big brother".
"Your Highness is too polite, please sit down."
He reached out not to hit the smiling people, Shuitian didn't want to come into contact with them, but he didn't want to cause trouble either.
After the two sat down separately, Xue Qinghe directly stated his intention without hesitation.
"Brother Shuitian had a battle with Poison Douluo Mianxia?"
Shuitian's heart tightened when he heard her asking this question. She probably wouldn't know about it, but he knew that this guy was asking the question with an answer, and there was no chance to hide it.
A slight nod of his head was considered as a response. If you talk less, you will make fewer mistakes.
After receiving the affirmative answer, Xue Qinghe's expression remained unchanged and he said, "My father sent me to find out more after hearing the report from the three educational committee members of the Royal Academy. Brother, don't be offended. It's better to avoid fights within the empire. My father is also worried about you, brother." It’s safe~”
He was honest and directly explained the reasons for selling the three education committee members.
Shuitian understood after a moment's thought, and she just wanted to know the outcome of the battle by asking this question later. It is the strategy of many leaders to give next suggestions based on their own answers.
He answered wisely, "It's just a simple exchange of hands. It won't be a problem. Your Majesty is sorry."
Come to think of it, Dugu Bo wouldn't talk about the fact that he was almost killed, so he could say whatever he wanted.
This answer was not satisfactory to Xue Qinghe. She had roughly figured out Shuitian's temperament after knowing him for several years. She really didn't want to have anything to do with the royal family, and she happened to think so too.
It would be a good thing to have such a talented Shuitian join his camp.
He hugged his fists and said, "Brother Shuitian is really powerful. He is not inferior to Poison Douluo Mian, who has been famous for many years. He is a true hero."
Shuitian accepted the praise as a way to satisfy her curiosity and tell her in disguise that she had not lost to that old poison.
Seeing that he didn't refute or accept, Xue Qinghe probably had something in his mind, and he straightened his expression and said, "My father wants to invite my eldest brother to join the empire. If my eldest brother is willing, he can directly become a royal servant and give Titled Douluo the same treatment. I don't know what my eldest brother wants." How? ”
This was not the first time Xue Ye invited him, but this time the conditions were the highest.
Shuitian still shook his head and said, "Reply to Your Majesty for me. I forgive Shuitian for failing to live up to Your Majesty's love. Shuitian has nothing to ask for. He just wants to stay in the academy and do small things within his power. But please rest assured, Your Majesty, if the empire is in trouble, Shuitian will not stand idly by.”
Sure enough, Xue Qinghe thought to himself that he didn't hear all the kind words he said later. He just took out an exquisite box and continued to persuade, "Brother, don't refuse in a hurry. This is specially prepared by my father for eldest brother. It belongs to my royal family." A supreme treasure.”
When she took out the box, Shuitian felt a unique aura of extreme ice. What is stored inside is undoubtedly a soul bone, and its quality is complete. It is initially judged that its cultivation level during his lifetime was no less than 40,000 years old.
Seeing the strange look on his face, Xue Qinghe opened the box with some anxiety.
A piece of pure white spine-like jade bone appeared before his eyes.
The bones are clear, the light is lingering, and the aura contained makes the whole room drop a few degrees.
Soul bones are simply God's creations, and beauty is not enough to describe how precious they are.
But it's a pity that it's just a trunk soul bone, and its age is too low, so it's useless to me.
However, there are younger members of the family who are very suitable for this soul bone, which makes Shuitian have other thoughts.
He shook his head and refused and said, "Your Majesty accepts your great love for Shuitian. Unfortunately, I have already made up my mind, so please stop trying to persuade me."
That's what he said, but Xue Qinghe clearly saw the nostalgia in his eyes.
Maybe he has already fused a torso soul bone, but he is indeed attracted to this soul bone.
Xue Qinghe did not reveal that Shuitian's reluctance to join the Tiandou royal family had more advantages than disadvantages for her.
Just as he was about to close the box, three figures walked in from outside.
Xue Qinghe could tell who the other two were just by looking at him. He quietly looked at Shuitian's face before saying politely and unhurriedly, "I met Dean Liu again. Please forgive me for Qinghe's presumptuous visit."
There is no other person who can be so polite as a prince. Liu Erlong did not dare to neglect and hurriedly saluted, "Your Highness, you are so polite. Lanba Academy will always welcome you."
Xue Qinghe smiled calmly, and then looked directly at the two people behind Liu Erlong.
Even Shuitian didn't know what she was thinking. Why did she bring them two to see the prince?
The eyes of these two guys were completely attracted by the soul bones on the table.
Fortunately, Flanders was sober. He pulled Yu Xiaogang and bowed at the same time, "Flanders has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Yu Xiaogang has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
After hearing the two people's self-introductions, Xue Qinghe secretly analyzed Liu Erlong's purpose, but responded naturally: "It turns out they are the other two members of the Golden Iron Triangle, and they have admired their names for a long time. Qinghe met the two of them for the first time, and if there is any offense, Please bear with me. ”
She had already incorporated her insanely refined politeness into her bones, and the two of them were elated after hearing her words. It seemed that they were really worthy of Xue Qinghe's attention.
However, they kept looking at the soul bone from the corner of their eyes, and they knew from the temperature it radiated that it was prepared for Shuitian.
It is inevitable to feel envy and jealousy in my heart, but I dare not show it on such occasions.
Liu Erlong also took a few glances at the soul bone. She remembered that Shuitian said that he had three soul bones, one of which was the torso soul bone. She knew that the royal family's attempt to win over had failed again.
"Your Highness, Flanders is the dean of academic affairs of our college. I have brought you here specially to pay tribute to you. If Shuitian and I are not in the college in the future, he can handle it for us."
Liu Erlong said this, not daring to look at Shuitian's face. This time, she was very ignorant and overstepped.
Xue Qinghe took a deep look at Flanders, who was bowing slightly, and then looked at Shuitian.
There was a hint of hidden smile in his eyes...
