Quick Wear: No one can stop me from extending the life of the male supporting role

The layout of the Yu Kingdom Palace is similar to that of the Zhao Kingdom Palace. However, it is decorated with pearls and inlaid with agates everywhere. Even the lighting is night-shining pearls, which gives people a sense of grandeur. It seems that they have taken a lot of things from the mermaids.

Anything the King of Zhao had was worth a fortune, but his eldest prince's family hadn't eaten meat for half a month. They lived worse than ordinary people, and one could imagine the situation of this family in the Yu Kingdom.

After entering the palace, Lu Changning, who had been standing behind Yunian, finally saw the legendary Mermaid Jiao Shiba who cut off her tail for love, and the boy she was holding.

The mermaid was really stunning. Even though Xiao Ba took away her health when he made a deal with her, her sick appearance seemed even more lovable. At this moment, she was wearing a water-blue palace dress that clung to her body, and her high bulging belly was even more conspicuous. It made her look gentle and beautiful, and also added some maternal radiance.

Looking at the child he was holding, he had a pair of legs like a human, but the scales extending from behind his ears to his clothes showed that he was a descendant of a mermaid. He did have the beauty of a mermaid, but I wonder if he could live on land and in water?

Lu Changning sighed, it is true that money makes the world go round. If the mermaids were not still useful, these people would probably have been captured as monsters.

When the banquet began, members of the royal family went into the main hall to eat, while the guards waited in the side hall outside and enjoyed some of the food given by the nobles.

Perhaps because of the lively atmosphere around them, these guards who used to work in the cold storage became more talkative.

The ones surrounded in the middle were naturally the second prince's guards. His master was in good shape right now, and it was an honor for the guards to be his.

There was a circle of people rushing to curry favor with him, and one could even vaguely hear several people asking this brother to do them a favor and transfer them over as well.

Lu Changning did not go up to join in the fun. Instead, he leaned against a pillar and listened to their conversation. He watched the servants coming and going outside, wondering when their meal would be arranged.

Just as he was looking forward to it, he heard a guard next to him muttering with disdain: "Tsk, why are you so proud? You have your current glory thanks to the Second Prince's wife's family."

The person next to him retorted, "That is also an opportunity for our Second Prince. Otherwise, why didn't the mermaid princess fall in love with your master? It's useless for us to envy her here."

"Yes, yes, what a pity. My master is also very good-looking. It's a pity that the second prince got him first. Otherwise, who would the merman princess fall in love with?"

"That's right, our master is not bad either! It can only be said that fate played tricks on us, and we didn't like the Second Prince's wife."

Lu Changning spoke up at the right time: "But I heard that the Mermaid King has more than one daughter."

The arguing beside them stopped instantly. They looked at each other, and it was unknown what they were thinking: "Well, my master has something else to tell me, so I'll leave first."

"Yes, the Third Prince also came to see me. I'm leaving now. Take care, brother."

"Hey, the banquet hasn't even started yet, what can the master tell me to do? Forget it, I'll go take a look. Take care, brother."

How could Lu Changning not know what these people wanted to do? They just wanted to remind their master to take action quickly while the single mermaid princess was still in the Yu Kingdom Palace.

In fact, these plans are not difficult to think of. Most people may have this idea, but at this time many people are watching, waiting to see His Majesty's true attitude towards the mermaids, whether he is trying to win them over for the sake of benefits, or whether he really wants to make friends with them.

They were afraid that if the emperor was unhappy in the future, the prince who married a mermaid would lose his inheritance rights.

But now, looking at the Second Prince's wife who was being carefully protected, and his beautiful sisters, the idea of ​​marriage came up again.

If the guards add fuel to the fire at this time, this idea will surely become even more difficult to give up.

However, an idea is just an idea after all, and these princes still have to see something so that they can strengthen their determination to marry the mermaid.

Thinking of this, Lu Changning also walked out leisurely.

The hall was bustling with singing and dancing. The Emperor of Yu, who was over fifty years old, was served by a beauty on his left and a concubine on his right, and he was laughing so hard that his teeth were almost falling out.

Then the Second Prince was carefully serving Jiao Shiba a meal, which was still fish. He was probably afraid that she would get stuck by fish bones, so he was patiently removing the meat bit by bit.

Lu Changning wanted to say, there is no need to do that, your wife is half human, half fish, she would eat anything alive at the bottom of the sea, this small fishbone can't do anything to her.

Lu Changning tapped his fingers lightly, using the little remaining magic power to touch Jiao Shiba's belly. When he saw her belly move, he nodded in satisfaction.

On a good day, one should be even happier. Since he has not started yet, he will come to help others.

Just as he was about to leave, he discovered that at the end of the banquet, Yunian and his parents were squeezed together at a small table. A place where even the emperor couldn't hear their voice, a family of three was sitting there. It seemed that they were really not liked by the emperor. They were openly targeted in this occasion, and the food on the table might not even be as good as the food in the side hall.

This family really suffered an unprovoked disaster. If it weren't for the mermaids, they would probably have lived a better life.

After finishing his work, Lu Changning had no need to stay any longer. He thought about going to the side hall to eat a few more bites. After all, the eldest prince's family would probably have a harder time after today's banquet. It was uncertain whether he would be able to have a full meal in his house in the future, so he might as well eat more now.

I had just returned to the guard room and hadn't eaten a few bites when I heard a commotion from the banquet. The guards were well-trained, so they put down their chopsticks, picked up their swords and rushed out. I looked at Lu Changning, who was slowly picking up the untouched elbow on the table.

"Great! I didn't touch a single bite of the meat. I really made a profit."

Xiao Hong swallowed her saliva and scolded him: "Can you be more dedicated? Even though we are short of food and clothing, at least they provide us with food and shelter. You should at least go and take a look."

"Look, how can I not look?" After packing up the food, Lu Changning rushed towards the main hall.

It was still a mess and you could still smell a faint smell of blood, but the guards had all been driven outside.

Seeing Lu Changning coming, the guard who had been chatting with him just now quickly pulled him aside and whispered: "I'm telling you, there will be good news later."

Lu Changning wondered, why are you happy about the Second Prince's wife giving birth to a child?

The guard pointed inside and said, "The second prince has given birth to a child. There will definitely be a reward later."

Oh, I see. That is indeed a great joy.

This birth seemed to be particularly difficult. It was already getting dark, but there was no sign of dinner being served in the palace.

Yu Nian took advantage of the fact that no one was around and quietly slipped out: "You are so slow. If I hadn't wanted to wait for the reward, I would have left long ago."

Wow, it turns out everyone is here for this.

Finally, at midnight, the child was born, but it turned out to be a girl with a human body and a fish tail.

Did she give birth to a mermaid? The whole audience fell silent.

Everyone looked at each other, trying to test the emperor's attitude.

If the emperor acknowledged the child, then the mermaids would indeed be a force that could be won over. But if the emperor suppressed the matter, or showed a little dissatisfaction, then the relationship between the mermaids and the Yu Kingdom would be questionable.

Obviously, not only the human race, but also the mermaids are waiting for news from the emperor. They want to see what kind of person the emperor of the country they support is.

Today's birthday boy, the Emperor of Yu, upon hearing the news, raised his wine glass high in front of everyone and shouted, "The little princess is born, reward!"

The emperor expressed his opinion, and for a while, the court was filled with congratulations. But no one knew what he was thinking.

A banquet, double happiness. Lu Changning not only had a good meal, but also got a hundred bucks. It can be said that he had a great harvest.

On the way back, Yunian was dancing with joy, counting the reward money in his hand over and over again, calculating how much he could spend for a few months.

However, the eldest prince's expression was extremely gloomy, without a smile, and his eyebrows were even knitted together. In this gloomy atmosphere, the eldest prince's wife beside him was also in a bad mood.

Xiao Hong asked: "Why don't you ask what happened to these two adults?"

Lu Changning stroked the money in his hand and said, "I don't care about that idleness. As long as Yunian is alive, it's good. As for the two adults, who can live without some troubles?"

But the facts prove that sometimes you still have to keep some free time, otherwise it will really lead to chain consequences.

Ever since Jiao Shiba gave birth to a daughter, the atmosphere in the entire Kyoto has become weird. The unmarried princes go out every day in fancy clothes and come back in full spring vigor, like peacocks spreading their tails.

The princes who have married, like Yunian's father, quarreled with their wives all day long! He seemed very irritable and would kick any passing dog, like a madman.

Lu Changning thought, look, if you don't perish under oppression, you will go crazy under oppression. The eldest prince has gone crazy.

Yu Nian was very unhappy about the relationship between his parents these days, so he ran to Lu Changning for refuge: "Guard Lu, why do my father and mother quarrel? They are so strange recently. I am obviously very well behaved, why are they still angry all day long?"

Xiao Hong said in a sly way: "I want to find you a new mother."

Lu Changning naturally couldn't be as inhumane as Xiaohong. As a guard who had taught a child and had sufficient parenting experience, he would definitely say things that his boss liked.

"Maybe it's because the weather is hot and irritable, adults are like this. It's not your problem."

"Oh." Yu Nian responded, but his mood didn't seem to improve.

"My third uncle and his wife separated recently. Guard Lu, do you think my father and mother will separate?"

Lu Changning thought about the eldest prince’s age and his appearance, and guessed that no merman would be interested in him.

He tentatively said, "I guess not."
