Chapter 119: A Crack

in the

Sorcerer's Robe?

Du Wei glanced at his father, and although his heart was still dazed, he also faintly seemed to capture something.

"It's just, it's just the identity of a magician, is it that heavy?" He smiled wryly.

"If it's just a magician, even if you are directly given the rank badge of a high-level magician, no one will care about you. But... This set of mage robes on your body is not an ordinary mage robe! Bachelor of Magic, hum..." Count Raymond sneered.

Before Du Wei could ask again, Lord Count suddenly closed his mouth, his face was a little gloomy, he pondered for a while, and slowly said: "Well, you just came back, these complicated things, soon you will know." I'm not busy telling you all now... By the way, you haven't met your mother yet, she misses you every day, and the flower you sent on her last birthday made her very uncomfortable for a few days. Now that you just came back and I called you to come to the study, I'm afraid she must be in a hurry.

Du Wei immediately noticed, knowing that his father seemed to have some things to tell him now, Du Wei didn't ask much, immediately put down the wine glass, bowed and smiled: "Then, father, I will go to visit my mother first."

"Go..." Count Raymond waved his hand, but when Du Wei reached the door, he suddenly called out to him again.

"Wait."

Du Wei stood up when he heard this, but his heart moved slightly, and he turned to look at his father: "Do you have any other orders?"

Count Raymond's eyes showed a complicated gaze, and he carefully looked at his son for a long time, before he asked in a deep voice: "You... Don't you have anything to tell me?

His voice was slightly harsh, and looking at Du Wei's eyes, it seemed that they were not so bright and sharp. Instead, there seemed to be some haze flashing.

"... No. Du Wei's heart moved, and those military crossbows seemed to flash in his mind, but I don't know why, although his father's words just now dispelled Du Wei's inner doubts a lot, and for the first time in so many years, his father revealed the feelings between father and son to himself, but Du Wei seemed to have some faint concerns and did not take the initiative to mention this matter.

Count Raymond listened to Du Wei's answer. As if he smiled bitterly, and then sighed, this time his eyes were close to Du Wei's eyes: "I heard that on the way to the ground, you met some... Accidentally?

Du Wei's heart was shocked, but his face did not show the slightest twist, but he nodded and said in a calm tone: "Yes." I just met some robbers and was a little frightened. "

Robbers?

In fact, both Du Wei and Count Raymond understood that this statement was just a perfunctory excuse. Du Wei believed even more that even if he strictly ordered the cavalry leader not to say anything about the military crossbow, but this matter could not be concealed from his father! After all, Count Raymond is the patriarch. is the object of allegiance of the entire family, and himself, but in the family, is a powerless empty young master.

That cavalry leader dared to hide from others, but he absolutely did not dare to hide his father's land.

So. This is the last "question mark" in Du Wei's heart today.

This conversation in the study just now, the father who has been cold to himself since he was a child, suddenly became so affectionate with himself, and also revealed so many feelings between fathers... Although it is touching, Du Wei is not the kind of teenager... Two lifetimes as a man, his inner city, and the maturity of his mind are far deeper than anyone imagined!

Even in the face of this father-sama. Du Wei did not dare to completely trust the other party at one time.

"Robbers..." Count Raymond's eyes also calmed down, and the expression on his face returned to the majesty of the family patriarch. But Du Wei couldn't help but jump a few times in his heart...

He's waiting!

I was looking forward to it.

He hoped that Count Raymond would take the initiative to mention the matter of the crossbow to himself. If he took the initiative to mention it, then Du Wei would further believe in this father who had snubbed him since childhood. I dare to believe that the affection just now was a sincere expression of his fatherly identity!

However, in Count Raymond's deep groaning, Du Wei's heart became cold little by little...

Sure enough, Count Raymond smiled. The smile was as gentle as when he called himself "son" just now: "This matter is not simple. I will order the garrison to investigate, first to see if any robbers have recently sneaked around the imperial capital. "Speaking of which. Count Raymond snorted coldly, looked majestic, slapped the table hard, and shouted: "I want to see, under my nose, who is so bold as to dare to blatantly move my son!" I'm afraid this matter was not done by some robbers, I'm afraid there is some other conspiracy!

After

that, he glanced at Du Wei, and his eyes turned to Cihe again: "... Don't mention your attack to your mother, lest she worry.

"Yes." Du Wei's heart sank, but a flattered smile appeared on his face, bowed to his father, and then cautiously turned around and went out.

When he went out, Du Wei looked at the bright sun in the sky, the dazzling sunlight sprinkled on his body, in the recent summer season, the sun was already full of warmth, but Du Wei only felt that the heart in the cavity gradually became cold!

He... Didn't say.

He didn't say!

Something about military crossbows ... Father, he didn't mention a word!

His body was shrouded in sunlight, and he was already slightly warm, but Du Wei felt that his heart sank deeply, and he felt a slight bitterness in his mouth.

He didn't mention a word!

Although there was still a smile on his face, Du Wei's eyes involuntarily dimmed down.

This matter of military crossbows, Du Wei deliberately intimidated the cavalry leader that day, in fact, he quietly left a test to test his father!

Of course, he would not be naïve to think that the cavalry leader would hide such a major matter from the patriarch in order not to dare to offend his own young master who was snubbed by the family! In fact, Count Raymond must have known these details at this moment!

Du Wei just waited. I want to see if my father will be honest with himself!

If he did, then Du Wei might further believe the father who suddenly changed his attitude towards him. If he hadn't said... When both of them knew it, he deliberately pretended not to know... It is clear that this problem is avoided.

Outside the courtyard, Chief Alpha Guard stood outside the courtyard, smiling and waving at Du Wei.

Du Wei coughed and strode over, Alpha looked at Du Wei with a very gentle expression: "Lord Count reprimanded you again?"

Du Wei shook his head. Smiling, he said, "No. However, my father seemed to be much more kind to me, so I was a little surprised and distracted for a while just now.

He concealed it very well, even if others now knew that this young master was not an idiot, but a genius. But after all, his age is here, and no one would think that a fourteen-year-old child would have such a deep heart.

Chief Alpha Guard smiled, suddenly gently patted Du Wei: "Young master, go see Madame." When you were in the study, Madame had already sent someone several times in a hurry.

Du Wei looked happy. With a joyful look in his eyes, he said goodbye to Alpha, and then went directly to the backyard of the Earl's Mansion to meet the Countess.

After Du Wei left, Alpha calmly walked into the courtyard and pushed open the door of the study.

The entire Earl's Court. Only this chief guard had this privilege and could enter and exit the count's study directly without knocking.

In the study, Count Raymond had already sat back behind his desk, with a pensive look on his face.

"How is he?" He glanced up at Alpha who walked in. Count Raymond sighed.

"The young master went to see Madame." Alpha stood in the doorway and closed the door.

"When he walked out just now, what was unusual?"

Alpha thought about it and shook his head.

The deep thought in Count Raymond's eyes became stronger, and after a while, he suddenly smiled, with a hint of mockery, and even more with a hint of anger. Coldly said: "This son of mine, although he is not old, but he has a lot of thoughts... The assassination of this time, it seems that he dares not trust anyone, even me! The cavalry captain beside him was warned by him not to talk indiscriminately... Alpha, do you think he will be suspicious of me?

Alpha lowered his head and thought for a while, and then said steadily: "Adult." Those crossbows bear military imprints. It is also normal for the young master to have doubts. Let alone... You don't have a good relationship with him. So what did you just do?

"I didn't say anything just now, just pretended not to know." Count Raymond sneered: "The little one has grown up. Very smart, and temperamental enough. Having suffered such a big loss, he actually knew that he had to swallow his anger, and he also knew how to warn the people around him to keep secrets. But after all, I am still too young, and my experience is still too shallow. How dare the people in the family hide it from me? But fortunately, I just pretended not to know, lest he ask me, I can't answer!

At this moment, the expression on his face was resolute and gloomy, and where did he have the appearance of a loving father half a moment ago?

After a pause, the sharpness in Count Raymond's eyes gradually dissipated, and he said lightly: "This matter, or that cavalry captain has a lot of mouth!" If it weren't for him talking about military crossbows, how could Du Wei know this? Hmph, he has a few more words, but I have to play the fool in this matter... I see that today, this son of mine is very smart, and I am afraid that he will not talk to me... That mouthy guy, you give me a good disposal.

"Yes." Alpha nodded, as if hesitating, and hesitated: "Adult..."

Count Raymond glanced at him, and his face relaxed slightly: "Okay, Alpha, here are the two of us, between us, you don't have to worry about what you say."

Alpha sighed: "Sir, Young Master Du Wei is so smart, and the handling of this matter is also quite skillful, isn't it exactly what you have expected for many years to have such a young talent in the family?" I think Young Master Du Wei will definitely be extraordinary in the future..."

"That also depends on what the future holds." Count Raymond shook his head weakly: "The current matter, both sides are overwhelming me... Can you get through this... I'm not sure, as for this son of my land, it depends on whether the gods favor him or not!

In the end, Count Raymond's face flashed a trace of blue qi, and there was a trace of determination in his eyes!
