central star.

"Too deceiving!"

The old king leaned on the throne and slapped the armrest hard.The nobles below repeatedly echoed: "That's right, those reckless men in the military department don't know how powerful the heavens and earth are if they have a little bit of power in their hands! I don't even think about who owns the world."

"It must be severely punished! Let them know what reverence is!"

"The key is the mermaid. This is the last one in the world. You must get it no matter what!"

After a while of flattery, the old king felt at ease.He raised his loose eyelids, glanced around the few people present, and said dissatisfiedly: "Where is the prince? Why doesn't he come to such an important meeting?"

The nobles looked at each other, and at this moment, a maid sent a message: "Your Majesty, the prince is asking to see you."

"Let him in!"

Accompanied by the sound of footsteps, a young man in a platinum brocade robe appeared in front of everyone.His figure was thin, his face was soft and pale, his light-colored pupils were calm and calm, and he looked like he was sleepwalking.

"Father," he did not meet the old king on the throne, but bowed and said, "And uncles, long time no see."

"Now is not the time to reminisce about the past," the old king frowned. "Lu Xing, you are the one who knows the mermaid tribe best among us. Tell me, how did Gu Xi bring the mermaid back?"

At the beginning, they put in so much effort, they almost used the Star Destroyer Cannon, and they didn't break the damn barrier. So after hearing the news, the first reaction of the nobles was that it was impossible. Who is Gu Xi? How did you do it?

"As long as the mermaid planet exists, the barrier of Jialan Lake cannot be broken. This is the iron rule." Lu Xing straightened up and said calmly, "There is only one possibility: the mermaid followed him voluntarily."

"Voluntary?" The old king sneered, "That's right, you seem to have used this trick at the beginning. It seems that although Gu Xi is indifferent and taciturn on the surface, in fact, he has the same knowledge in his heart as others, and he doesn't know it. What kind of method did he use to lure/coax mermaids..."

An earl joked: "General Gu is dedicated to serving the country, let alone a mermaid, even to an 80-year-old toothless old lady, he probably can speak sweet words without changing his face!"

The nobles suddenly burst into laughter.

The old king laughed up and down, but with a smile, he saw his son standing in front of him with an indifferent face, and felt disappointed: "Prince, what's the matter with you today? If you don't feel well, you should go back and stay there as soon as possible." Bar."

"Thank you, Father, but I don't feel any discomfort in my body." Lu Xing said, "I'm here today just to ask for an unfeeling request."

"what?"

"You also said just now that I know mermaids best among all of you here," the young man lowered his head and said softly, "so I hope you can entrust this job to me. Give me half a year... no, three Moon, I will definitely bring the mermaid to the palace for everyone to enjoy."

"it is good!"

The old king stood up excitedly, walked off the throne with the support of his attendants, and patted him on the shoulder: "This is my good son!"

"Don't dare."

After Lu Xing finished speaking, he took the initiative to leave: "Then I'll go to make preparations first, and my father will have a slow chat with all the uncles."

Before the old king could speak, he turned and left the hall on his own.

Looking at his back, the old king withdrew his hand in embarrassment, and the other nobles were quiet for a moment, and changed the subject with insight.

The old king is getting older and has gradually become unable to do what he wants; although the prince is young, he does things in a unique way, coupled with his weak body... how this team should stand is indeed a matter of knowledge.

The vortex in the palace did not affect Lin Xiaodong's mood. After arriving at Central Star, he moved into Gu Xi's villa in the military headquarters compound. Professional butlers came to clean and cook regularly every day. Even the temperature and humidity in the room were specially adjusted to the most comfortable gear for him.

But Lin Xiaodong was still very unhappy.

Because Gu Xi didn't allow him to go out casually at all, and the men were not at home during the day, and he was the only fish in the villa, arguing with the system in the bathtub, so bored that he was almost moldy.

Even his favorite SpongeBob can't cheer him up.

"If this continues, when will the task be completed?" He said irritably, "No, I have to tell Gu Xi, we can't go on like this."

During this period of time, the system helped him sort out the relationship between the characters in this world again. Combining the information found on the star network, Lin Xiaodong preliminarily determined three target characters.

The first place is Crown Prince Lu Xing.

The second place is Old King Lu Shengzun.

The third place is Xu Feng, the adjutant next to Gu Xi.

He can't get in touch with the first two for the time being, but as Gu Xi's subordinate, Xu Feng is quite convenient to get in touch with.

It's just that he needs an aboveboard reason.

In the evening, when Gu Xi returned home, he found Lin Xiaodong soaking listlessly in the bathtub, with his tail limply resting on the side of the bathtub, and was waving it randomly.

He untied the silver buckle belt on his uniform, walked over and lowered his head to kiss the little mermaid's forehead: "What's the matter, listless?"

"I'm homesick." Lin Xiaodong whispered.

Gu Xi paused.

After a while, he sighed softly, skillfully fished out the little mermaid from the bathtub, wiped his tail with a towel placed beside him, and carried Lin Xiaodong to the sofa.

"I'm sorry," he said, "but I can't take you back now."

"I know."

Lin Xiaodong lowered his head and played with the buttons on his cuffs: "I didn't say anything about you, but it's too boring to stay at home by myself every day, and I don't even have anyone to talk to."

He thought for a while, raised his head, and asked expectantly, "Can you let your adjutant come with me?"

Gu Xi: "..."

Although he knew that the little mermaid's heart was pure and it was impossible to have that kind of thought, but hearing this, the man felt a little strange in his heart.

"Why him?"

He asked patiently, but his tone unconsciously carried a hint of sourness.

"Because he is your adjutant," Lin Xiaodong said as a matter of course, "The spies of the military department have not been caught yet. You said before that the only person you can trust now is your adjutant, so of course I also trust him."

Gu Xi was dumbfounded.

Feeling the sudden strength of the man's arm around him, Lin Xiaodong silently compared himself in his heart.

When it comes to coaxing people, he is a professional.

"Okay," Gu Xi agreed, "It just so happens that his wife is pregnant recently, and I'll let him pick you up every afternoon, but you must never leave the military compound, do you hear me?"

"understand!"

The goal was achieved, Lin Xiaodong immediately jumped off him, cheering and jumped into the swimming pool in the courtyard.

Gu Xi, who was empty in his arms for a moment, froze for a moment, then shook his head helplessly.

The next day, the adjutant knocked on the door on time.

"coming!"

Hearing the movement, Lin Xiaodong immediately got out of the bathtub, and before he even had time to wipe his tail, he ran all the way wet to open the door.

Standing beside the adjutant was a young woman with a round face, wearing a loose maternity dress, her stomach looked like it was six or seven months old.She was holding a small bamboo basket in her hand, and it was covered with a floral cloth so she couldn't tell what was in it, but Lin Xiaodong guessed it was something like afternoon tea.

"This is my wife, Lulu." Xu Feng scratched his head and introduced.

He was a big bastard, and he really didn't know how to communicate with the officer's family, not to mention that ordinary humans couldn't hear the mermaid's language, so he had no choice but to turn his attention to his wife for help.

Lulu smiled: "Hi Xiaodong, would you like to come to our house for a sit down? It's nearby, not far away."

Lin Xiaodong nodded in agreement.

He took the small bamboo basket from Lulu, looked at it curiously, and looked up at the two of them.

"It's the small dried fish that I fried myself," Lulu understood, and took the initiative to explain, "Don't all mermaids eat fish?"

Xu Feng sighed, and looked at him apologetically: "I persuaded her before coming here, but she didn't believe it..."

Lin Xiaodong shook his head, indicating that it was okay, then picked up a fried golden crispy small dried fish from the bamboo basket and threw it into his mouth.

He always felt that Xu Feng's wife looked familiar, but no one could tell what it looked like, he just felt as if he had seen it somewhere.

They sat down in the courtyard of Xu Feng's house, Xu Feng hurriedly poured water for them, Lu Lu was inconvenient, so she leaned on the recliner and chatted with Lin Xiaodong.Ever since she sat down, she had been staring absent-mindedly at the beautiful silver tail behind Lin Xiaodong, and now she couldn't help it anymore and asked, "Can I pet it?"

Lin Xiaodong agreed, and handed over the tail generously.

Lulu stretched out her hand and touched it cautiously. Her expression changed from curiosity to surprise to love, which made Xu Feng cough heavily: "Restrain yourself."

Lulu reluctantly withdrew her hand.

"In fact, in the past few days since you came here, there have been many rumors about you in the military compound," she told Lin Xiaodong, "Everyone said that General Gu brought a mermaid back from Garbage Star, and they all wanted to see you with their own eyes. .”

Lin Xiaodong glanced at her, and typed word by word on the screen of the optical brain: "That's not some rubbish star."

"……what?"

"That's my home, where the mermaid ancestors lived for generations," he replied, "You humans dumped all the garbage without authorization."

Lulu froze.

Looking at Lin Xiaodong's calm expression, she hastily apologized: "Sorry, that's not what I meant..."

Lin Xiaodong smiled at her, and continued to knock considerately: "Don't be nervous, I'm not blaming you."

The woman was silent for a moment, then clenched the corners of her clothes and said, "Actually, you have every right to hate."

Seeing the atmosphere getting serious, Xu Feng had no choice but to intervene: "Lu Lu, stop talking."

"Okay," Lulu forced a smile, "Look at me, don't talk about it." She clapped her hands and asked with a smile, "How is it, is the dried fish delicious?"

It has to be said that Adjutant Xu's wife's skill in frying dried fish is indeed outstanding. It hasn't been long, and Lin Xiaodong has swallowed more than half of it.Hearing Lulu's question now, he was still holding a half-eaten dried fish in his mouth. When he raised his head, Xu Feng, who was standing beside him, just took the opportunity to capture it with his optical brain.

"It was requested by the lieutenant general," he took the initiative to explain, noticing the puzzled look in the mermaid's eyes, "take a photo every afternoon to report his safety."

Lin Xiaodong curled his lips and snorted, as if complaining that Gu Xi was too lenient.

But looking at his expression, he was not angry at all.

"You two have such a good relationship," Lulu said enviously, "Xu Feng and I have been married for five years, and now he feels more at ease when I go out."

"I didn't!" Xu Feng immediately complained, "After you're pregnant, I wish I could be by your side 24 hours a day. Is that reassuring?"

The mermaid sat on the swing in the courtyard, watching them flirting with wide eyes. After a while, Lulu finally came to her senses and said to him apologetically, "I'm sorry, the two of us are used to bickering. It’s easy to ignore other people.”

Lin Xiaodong shook his head.

Seeing that he didn't mind, Lulu continued on her own: "I've been at home for almost three months, and I'll go back to work when the child is born, otherwise I'll be bored to death."

"Child..." Lin Xiaodong hugged Guangnao, his eyes fell on her stomach, "Did you name it?"

"I haven't decided on a big name yet." She lowered her head and slowly rubbed her stomach, smiling. "The nickname is Ping An. Now that there is chaos everywhere outside, I just want my child to live in peace, health and happiness for the rest of his life." enough."

In the evening, Gu Xi came to pick him up and go home.

Walking on the road, the man asked, "How was your day?"

"Very good," Lin Xiaodong said. Anyway, there is no rush to inquire about the news. The most important thing is to get closer to Xu Feng and his wife. "Except for you, they are the best human beings I have ever seen. "

This description made Gu Xi not know how to answer for a moment, and after a long time, he slowly said: "I thought, you think everyone in the world is a good person."

When they met for the first time, they foolishly disregarded their own safety, insisted on saving him when he was almost roasted, and broke the taboo of the mermaid clan for thousands of years for him. Gu Xi didn't even know why Lin Xiaodong fell in love with him at first sight.

Looking at the book in the hand of the mermaid beside him, he came back to his senses and asked, "What is this?"

"Huh?" Lin Xiaodong followed his gaze and lowered his head, "Oh, Lulu gave it to me, saying it was a bedtime story."

Gu Xi noticed that it was a collector's edition of "The Little Prince".

"It's a good book," he said.

"Yes, but I've already read it," Lin Xiaodong said before realizing it, and immediately patched, "I found the book from the trash."

Gu Xi asked with great interest: "Then which sentence do you like the most?"

Lin Xiaodong thought about it.

"'Because you are willing to indulge, even if you die, you don't need to be rescued.'" He said, even temporarily forgetting his own personality, and began to discuss seriously with Gu Xi, "I like this sentence the most. What about you?"

"I haven't watched it yet," Gu Xi replied after a moment of silence, "I mean, I must have seen it before, but I just forgot it now."

They walked side by side on the small road at dusk, and the atmosphere was just right, but they were interrupted by a soldier who hurried over: "Lieutenant General! The prince came to the door with the imperial guards!"

Gu Xi frowned, and was about to say something when he heard a gentle male voice from ahead: "Lieutenant General Gu, don't come here without any problems."

The two looked around, and under the setting sun, Lu Xing led two Imperial Guards walking towards them from the other side of the path.

After many days, the lips of the young man with shallow eyes were still as pale as paper, as if they would break if touched.With a polite smile on his face, he nodded politely towards Gu Xi.

Immediately, Lu Xing turned his gaze, and his eyes fell on Lin Xiaodong beside him calmly.
