Chapter 299 Know everything(1/2)
Heine Magic Academy, student dormitory.
Xu Mu had just finished taking a shower and sat on the bed and rubbed his eyebrows with one hand. The smell of irritability surrounded him.
Today, after he had a meal with Ai Lu, he personally sent her out of the town because Ai Lu was going to catch up with the temple tour lineup.
Originally, Xu Mu was worried and wanted Bereth and Luya to escort him together, but Ai Lu refused and said that this was a journey of atonement and that he had to go with sincerity alone.
What happened today made Xu Mu feel even more out of place with the world.
Although he was not worried about this, he felt irritated.
In Ai Lu's eyes, the seriousness of practicing black magic is greater than the fact that she concealed Xu Mu's marriage with Betina.
But in Xu Mu's eyes, practicing black magic is not worthy of much attention. He needs to let Ai Lu go out of the way to Betina, and the occurrence of such a thing made him extremely concerned about.
The two have completely different emphasis, which also reflects that Xu Mu's values are still unable to emerge from the habits of the old world.
In this world, multiple mistresses of nobles are extremely normal. Some noble families even raise more than a dozen mistresses. Although the children born are called illegitimate children, they also have the power to inherit the family.
It's just that violating some regulations or dogmas can be considered harmless.
The reason why civilians resist the nobles doing this is because they have no money or power, otherwise they will have the same appearance.
Thinking of Betina, Xu Mu seemed even more annoyed.
It’s not that he doesn’t like Betina. Betina has a good personality and can give a good response to everyone around her, as if she is more than enough to handle many things. Moreover, she is also a girl from Betina’s family in the Kingdom of Heiney. Marriage with her is indeed very beneficial to her future in the Kingdom of Heiney.
Fraternity is a man’s nature, but fraternity does not mean promiscuous.
Has he really reached the point where he could fall in love with Betina?
At least Xu Mu thought he hadn't arrived.
He doesn't believe in love at first sight, but he also believes in love over time.
I have never been together with Betina, nor have I experienced anything big or small. Compared with Ailu, I suddenly felt that many places were much worse.
In other words, children only want everything, and only adults know that their bodies cannot bear it.
After Ai Lu's mouth, Xu Mu also learned that the students of the academy already knew that he was the captain of the Cavaliers, and they also knew that he had officially entered into a marriage contract with Betina, but there was no date for engagement.
It's really a rush to put the duck on the shelves!
Xu Mu gritted his teeth, but if he had any bad thoughts about Shinia, it would be difficult to mention them.
It is a good thing that Xu Mu didn’t see Betina today, so it’s not a good thing that won’t help but save him from being embarrassed.
After all, the news of his return to the academy was that through the mouths of the students, Betina knew that it was a matter of time.
However, Xu Mu suddenly felt helpless when he thought about finding Xiniyi tonight.
The matter of Heniyi is the most important thing at the moment. He wants to heal Heniyi's eyes and give her a bright light. By the way... let her know what happened a year ago.
Shiniyi has the right to know, and as a subordinate, there is no need to hide it.
As for what will happen to the two sisters afterwards, it is not within Xu Mu's consideration.
After knowing that Shinia and Ailu had a private "deal" in the capital, Xu Mu didn't have so many taboos about Shinia. At first, he thought that his behavior of saving Shinia would affect Shinia's planned actions.
Now?
It has nothing to do with me, just treat it as if I don’t know anything.
Xu Mu knew that there was something to do today, but she sighed and stood up and put on her clothes, preparing to rush to the princess courtyard to see Shiniyi.
He put the potion in his arms, put on a fluffy cloak, and left the bedroom.
...
Magic Academy, Princess Courtyard.
At night, the cold wind was like a madman, wandering around every corner of the Magic Academy, making passers-by tremble when they met.
From the outside, the lights are still dim, just like the first time Xu Mu came, Princess Shiniyyi was blind and mostly stayed in the bedroom every day and did not go out.
The lights every night are just to light up the servants to see the road.
Xu Mu came to the princess courtyard and saw that the guard was still stunned. Even when he came to him, he was in a daze before he came to his senses.
These were all sent by the nobles, saying that they were guarding Heiney, and more so on surveillance.
A year ago, Shiniyi said that she would reduce the nobles to ascend the throne, which scared the nobles. Even Shiniyi has not successfully ascended the throne, which has made the nobles dare not relax until now, because she is afraid that she will do something in private.
When the guards saw Xu Mu coming, they woke up again with a bored look on their faces. Although they knew that Xu Mu was the captain of the Cavaliers, they really couldn't be interested and respectful now.
Xu Mu didn't care, so he passed by and walked into the courtyard.
When I arrived at the building, the servant I met in the corridor saw Xu Mu, and he had the energy to salute.
However, when Xu Mu turned left and right, he came to Shiniyi's bedroom, he saw Anna standing in front of the corridor window, looking at the night view outside in a daze.
Xu Mu was a little stunning in an instant, because the night he left the academy and went to the Northern Forest, Anna was like this in the princess courtyard, standing in front of the window and tranced.
This made Xu Mu think that everything had not changed.
"You're back." Anna heard the sound and saw Xu Mu, she couldn't help but smile, and the half-stage armor on her body rubbed out: "I haven't seen you for almost a month."
"Yes, I didn't expect this trip to take so much time." Xu Mu smiled and stepped forward, standing side by side with Anna.
One is the former captain of the Cavaliers and the other is the current one. This kind of clever moment is not available every day.
"It's good that you're here. Your Highness the Princess is not in good spirits these days."
"What's wrong with Your Highness the Princess?"
"It was fine a few days ago, but the first stop of the temple tour was the Magic Academy. At that time, the second night after the Saint arrived at the Magic Academy, he came to the courtyard to meet His Royal Highness the Princess. The two chatted in the bedroom for a long time, and then His Royal Highness was not in good spirits these days, and often showed a sad expression."
"It's the saint again?"
Xu Mu couldn't help but be shocked. The saint was at least the one who helped him awaken the seven-type magic seals. He also told him a lot of knowledge about the magic seals. He was naturally grateful to her.
Why does it seem like the saint is particularly good at making trouble now?
After coming to the academy, Ai Lu ran away with the people.
Now he was struggling with Shiniyi again, and then ran away by himself.
What, this is it?
This saint seems to be able to make trouble than Shinia.
Anna didn't know why Xu Mu was so amazed, but she shook her head and said, "No matter what, when you come back, your princess may be in a better mood. I asked her princess these days if something happened to her. She refused to tell me, because she was afraid she didn't want to worry me... But I believe that if the target was you, your princess might not be able to say it."
"Anna, don't be too proud of me." Xu Mu smiled bitterly, then sighed: "I will have a good chat with His Royal Highness the Princess. After all, a lot of things happened this time..."
"Okay." Anna suddenly turned her eyes and said slowly: "I remember Miss Ailu left the Magic Academy, and you also signed a marriage contract with Miss Betina. Although I don't know what you are doing in private, it's better to make the engagement time in advance."
Xu Mu's face was embarrassed. He didn't even know how to face Betina. What did he do when he said this?
Then he waved his hand and knocked on the door of Shiniyyi's bedroom, shouted and received a response before entering.
Seeing this, Anna couldn't help but shake her head and said, "It's great to be young."
The decoration of the princess' bedroom remains unchanged, and there is a faint fragrance on Shiniy's body in the room, which makes Xu Mu, who hasn't smelled for a long time, feel a little lost.
Shiniyi was wearing a white lace nightgown, with white snow all over the sky and beautiful hair spread out. She held her long arms together and placed them on her legs. She sat dignifiedly on the sofa chair, and her dark blue eyes revealed a hole...
Xu Mu was not polite and came to the sofa chair that he used to sit down.
He looked at the sad expression on Shiniyi's white and tender face, and couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
What a strong woman Shiniy is, doesn't he understand?
A girl who lost her childhood since childhood traveled around with the footsteps of the king, witnessing the difficulties in the world, and always maintaining the idea of being moved by the people.
Even when he was framed by others, he was so calm when talking about this.
Now that there is such an expression on his face, how can you not make Xu Mu feel distressed?
"Your Highness the Princess..."
Shiniyi seemed to have come back to his senses, and his body trembled obviously: "Oh...you're already in."
"I've been sitting next to you just now. Princess, are you okay?"
"Me? Of course I'm fine."
"It's fine." Xu Mu sighed. Without too much entanglement, he didn't like to force others to say his worries. Just like he treated Ailu, he would listen as long as Shiniyi wanted to say it, and it would be fine if he didn't want to say it.
"You said you would be back in two weeks."
"Something happened, it took only a month."
Thinking that Xu Mu went to the northern forest to explore to save his eyes, Shiniyi's heart seemed to warm up a little, and his smile seemed a little real.
“What’s the result?”
Xu Mu knew what Shiniyi asked: "I have already found out what I want to know, and about His Royal Highness's eyes... I also found the medicine to understand. If nothing unexpected happens, His Royal Highness will be able to see the light again."
Logically speaking, Shiniyi should have been very surprised, but she was strange. Her hands suddenly clasped together, pressed them very hard, and her nails fell into it. She had a little joy that could not be suppressed on her face, but she also had a strange loneliness.
"Your Highness, it seems that you are not particularly happy?"
"No...I'm very happy...I'm very happy...Xu Mu, I'm very happy and grateful for your ability to do this for my eyes."
To be continued...
