On the way back, Xiao Tingyun's personal terminal was almost blown up.

The fact that mosasaurs, which are only found on the mother planet, appeared in the Drunken Red Sea and attacked the underwater world have become the number one trending search topic on the interstellar network. After this incident was exposed, it was also exposed.

There was also His Highness the Crown Prince who secretly took Long Jiu there to play.

Therefore, news that was already very popular finally stopped being at the top of the list.

Just because this hot search number one, now everyone in the imperial city knows what they should know and what they shouldn't know, so Xiao Tingyun's personal terminal was almost exploded.

In the speeding car speeding through the air tunnel, the roar of the land battle almost blew off the roof of the car.

"Are you saying that you are too idle? Your succession ceremony will be in three days. Instead of staying in the Prince's Mansion to prepare, you secretly took someone to the wine city? You just go to the wine city.

Well, I was so desperate that I went to the underwater world of the Red Sea???"

"Do you know that when I saw you appearing in the video with a group of evacuated tourists, I thought I had seen a ghost?!!!"

Lu Zhan was probably really angry. This was the first time since he became sensible that he had scolded Xiao Tingyun in a red-faced and thick-necked manner regardless of his dignity.

Xiao Tingyun may have known that he was in the wrong, so he didn't retaliate for the first time after being scolded by Lu Zhan.

Because of wrongdoing or guilty conscience, Xiao Tingyun was stunned and let Lu Zhan spray wildly for more than 20 minutes. Even Long Jiu, who was sitting in the passenger seat beside him, subconsciously and silently reduced his presence.

Probably because it was the first time he sprayed so much, and he hadn't been sprayed back yet, Lu Zhan couldn't hold back anymore. Xiao Tingyun saw that he had no intention of ending it, and his little guilty conscience was finally suppressed by Lu Zhan.

The war was over.

"That's enough for you, right? Do you really treat me like your grandson?" Xiao Tingyun stared at the person on the virtual screen coldly, with a chilling tone in his voice, "I don't know what it means to give up when you're done.

, don’t you want to push your limits?”

Lu Zhan suddenly came back to his senses from the feeling of relief from being scolded. Especially after meeting Xiao Tingyun's cold gaze, Lu Zhan immediately understood what it means to give up when things are good.

It's okay if you don't accept it. His Highness the Crown Prince is very narrow-minded. If he takes a grudge against you, he might come back to retaliate against you at any time.

Lu Zhan was afraid of being resented and retaliated, so he immediately laughed twice and forcibly changed the subject, "But then again, how could two mosasaurs appear in the drunken red sea? A prehistoric giant like mosasaurus.

Shouldn’t beasts only exist on the home planet?”

Although he knew that Lu Zhan was forcefully changing the topic, he also changed the focus to the main point, so Xiao Tingyun patiently told him his guess.

Lu Zhan's eyebrows knitted together as he heard this, "What does the top administrator of Liquor City do for a living? He didn't even know that two such big behemoths were secretly thrown into the Drunken Red Sea? And that underwater world?

Is the security system just a decoration? Not to mention that the danger is already over your head, even if you just appeared in that sea area, the security system of the underwater world should have discovered it in advance, right?"

"Song Ji is indeed a jobber. Let's use this incident to knock him off the top of the wine city." Xiao Tingyun said calmly: "As for the security system of the underwater world, what's going on?

It will be clear after they hand over the system data tonight."

Lu Zhan touched his chin and said, "The position of the top administrator of Liquor City is a big one. After you remove Song Ji, who are you going to replace him with?"

"Isn't there a talent election this fall? This is the first talent election since I took over the throne. I can always select a few talented and suitable people." Xiao Tingyun obviously had an idea for a long time, so he was picking it up.

That's why Song Ji was so understated about this matter.

The Star Luo Empire's autumn talent election is actually the same as the ancient imperial examination in the Earth era. Although the ancient system is followed, this election is held every five years.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhan knew that he had been planning an election for a long time, and then he chuckled and said, "Are you planning to change the blood of the court? I thought you could really tolerate Xiao Junchen's people, but it turns out that you just stood still.

Quietly wait for your own people to be replaced after the election."

Xiao Tingyun smiled and did not deny it. Although the ministers at the court were looking forward to his succession with joy, only they themselves knew what they were thinking.

Although he doesn't like to sit together, he can't get used to Xiao Junchen's people. What's more, he has always been strong. When making decisions at the court meeting, he doesn't like people to contradict him, so he still goes to the court hall.

Some people are best replaced by their own people.

Looking at Xiao Tingyun's expression, Lu Zhan knew that it wouldn't be long before there would be another bloody storm at the court meeting, and he couldn't help but silently pity those ministers who might be replaced but now don't know anything.

.

But as the old saying goes, once the emperor and his courtiers come to power, there will be a big change of blood after the new emperor succeeds to the throne. I think those adults should have been used to it by now.

While Lu Zhan was sighing, he chatted with Xiao Tingyun for a while and then disconnected the video communication. However, just as Lu Zhan ended, Xiao Tingyun's personal terminal rang again, and this time the person calling the video communication was

It's Lu Ling.

Lu Ling and Lu Zhan are worthy of being brothers. As soon as the video communication was connected, he sneered at Xiao Tingyun. However, Lu Ling was more restrained than Lu Zhan. Even when he was criticizing others, he would do it.

Very high level.

From beginning to end, Lu Ling was not angry at all, and he was not as angry as Lu Zhan, who blushed and had a thick neck. His voice was calm, cold and indifferent, but he sounded so sinister and angry. His attitude was even more troublesome than Lu Zhan.

Shell hurts.

Moreover, Lu Ling was cleaner and neater than Lu Zhan. He would not ask why Xiao Tingyun ran to the wine city, nor did he ask Zui Honghai about the details of the accident. He only focused on trolling people, and immediately cut off the communication after the trolling.

, not even giving Xiao Tingyun a chance to explain.

Xiao Tingyun looked at the disconnected call link, expressionless for a moment.

But Long Jiu, who had watched everything, could not hold back this time and burst into laughter.

When Xiao Tingyun heard the sound, he turned to look at her. Long Jiu immediately covered his mouth, but it was still possible to see from her crooked eyebrows that she was secretly having fun.

Xiao Tingyun: "Are you still laughing?"

Long Jiu hummed and shook his head.

Xiao Tingyun was so angry at her little white-eyed wolf's performance that he immediately reached out to grab her face, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Xiao Tingyun's personal terminal rang again like a ghost.

Xiao Tingyun: ".........."

He is already a Buddha!

Looking at the name in the virtual box that popped up, Xiao Tingyun raised his eyebrows high. Seeing this, Long Jiu tilted his head and looked over, and then said happily: "Shen Qiao? Did he also see the hot search, so Did he also call you to scold you?"

Xiao Tingyun stared at the name of 'Shen Qiao' and said expressionlessly: "No, he should be here to take pleasure in his misfortune." After saying that, he pressed the connect button.

As expected, the second the video call was connected, Shen Qiao's gloating laughter came out first.

Shen Qiao appeared in the video wearing a white research uniform, laughing loudly and saying: "Xiao~~~How was the experience of the thrilling trip to the bottom of the sea? You don't even know, I saw you and a group of people panicking in the hot search When all the tourists were being evacuated from the sea, I almost accidentally broke the cup in my hand."

Xiao Tingyun looked at him expressionlessly and said nothing.

Long Jiu covered his mouth and laughed hummingly.

Like a cheerful young man, Shen Qiao suddenly came closer. His entire face filled the entire virtual screen, and then he seemed to be able to sneak in from the other side of the virtual screen and get right in front of Xiao Tingyun's eyes. As if, he looked Xiao Tingyun back and forth, and then he laughed and said: "Tell me, you need to memorize more, so that you can encounter such a bad thing when you go to the underwater world to play with your childlike innocence. thing?"

Xiao Tingyun remained expressionless, but his eyes gradually narrowed as he looked at him.

As if Shen Qiao couldn't understand his expression, he still said cheerfully: "Tell me, what do you think?"

"I don't have any other thoughts. I just feel that money is a bit tight, so I want to end a few sponsorship projects." Xiao Tingyun said with an indifferent expression: "I see that you are so free, and you still have time to chat with me, so why not Just stop the funding for your laboratory."

Classmate Shen Qiao, who was gloating about the misfortune, was immediately dumbfounded, so don't make fun of the donor's father, otherwise you will offend the donor's father, who can cut off your "living expenses" in minutes.

Shen Qiao finally realized that the sponsor's father was not someone he could laugh at, and immediately apologized: "No, no, no, no, dad, I was wrong, I was a coward, I shouldn't have done it, but I can't stop it either." Our funds."

Xiao Tingyun snorted softly and remained unmoved.

Shen Qiao was very flexible and flexible. While bowing to Xiao Tingyun, he clasped his fists and said flatteringly: "Dad, I was really wrong. Seeing that I have prepared a great gift for your succession, please forgive me for being such an unfilial son. Bar."

Xiao Tingyun glanced sideways at the unfilial son and asked: "What kind of gift?"

Mentioning this great gift, the unfilial son immediately started to sneer again, "Your Canglang, the new body has been built. In order to give it to you in time for your succession ceremony, you know that I have been here for a while. What kind of life are you having? Even in my dreams, I am testing the data of the fuselage."

Although Shen Qiao described himself as pitiable, Xiao Tingyun was not moved. Instead, he said with disdain, "You're giving me my mecha as a gift? And I paid for this mecha myself."

Shen Qiao also seemed to think it was inappropriate. He smiled and retorted: "Although it is your mecha and it is the money you spent, I have created many new functions for you, and that is all done with my brain. Thing, do you know how many brain cells I sacrificed for this new body of yours?"

Xiao Tingyun became a little interested and asked: "What's the new function?"

Shen Qiao hummed mysteriously, "Then I won't tell you now. You will know after you receive it and try it yourself. But I promise, you will like it."

Xiao Tingyun did not continue to pursue the question. Anyway, it was only a few days, so he could still afford to wait, so he took the lead in pressing the end button and said coldly and ruthlessly: "Okay, you can get out."

Without waiting for Shen Qiao's reaction, Xiao Tingyun disconnected the call link.

This time, after the call link was disconnected, Xiao Tingyun directly turned on the Do Not Disturb mode on his personal terminal in order to stop anyone from disturbing him, and rejected all the people who wanted to contact him later.

The rest of the journey back was quiet, and it was already evening when the two of them finally returned to the Prince's Mansion.

In the living room, a group of people were waiting for them. As soon as Xiao Tingyun and Long Jiu entered the door, everyone stared at them.

Long Jiu felt that this scene was like a three-chamber interrogation, so she moved a small step behind Xiao Tingyun.

Well, even if it is a joint trial among the three courts, let him be tried first.

Long Jiu moved like this and pushed Xiao Tingyun forward. Xiao Tingyun almost laughed out of anger at her reaction.

He pulled Long Jiu out from behind angrily, "What are you hiding from?"

Long Jiu glanced at him guiltily, thinking that she didn't want to hide either, but so many people inside looked over, so she subconsciously wanted to hide.

Xiao Tingyun glanced at the guilty expression on her face, snorted softly, raised his eyes and glanced around the people in the living room, and asked confidently: "If you don't go back to rest at night, you will be doing it here." What?"

The two Lu brothers did not speak because they had already had a round of spraying in the afternoon. Wei Chuyang, who had not contacted Xiao Tingyun, said angrily: "I wanted to go back to rest, but I didn't see you. Do I dare to go back and rest?"

Xiao Tingyun led Long Jiu in. After hearing this, he looked at Wei Chuyang and asked, "Why did you see me?"

Wei Chuyang rolled his eyes in anger at his question, "The General Security Administration has received the total security system data from Jiucheng Underwater World. Didn't you say you want to see it, so Zhang Guangbai directly gave this data to I'll bring it to you."

Wei Chuyang complained with an unhappy look on his face: "Has the do-not-disturb mode been turned on on your personal terminal? I can't even send you data, so I can only stay here and wait for you to come back."
