In the huge central imperial city, apart from the majestic imperial palace, Duke Ka Luosi's mansion occupied the most space.
It was said that Duke Ka Luosi's family was one of the oldest aristocratic families in the empire, dating back to the distant era of Earth. The family's wealth could not be measured with numbers, and it was extremely rich. All of this, in the hands of Ka Luosi, not only did it not decline, but it also rose to the next level. His power and wealth were so great that countless aristocrats in the empire could not even hope to catch up to him.
This was also the key reason why Ka Luosi could fight with Jing Sui for an entire book. His power was indeed too great!
However, Duke Ji Ting did not belong to Ka Luosi's faction. He was unwilling to participate in the struggle between Ka Luosi and Jing Sui. Therefore, Ji Ling and Ka Luosi did not interact much. That was why Ji Ling had never been to this Duke's mansion in his previous life.
Although he also called Carlos uncle, it was probably equivalent to an ordinary elder that he was familiar with.
Ji Ling curiously looked at the magnificent gate of the Duke's mansion in front of him. He calmed himself down and got out of the car.
Since Ka Luosi dared to openly invite him, he naturally would not take his life. He must send him back in one piece. This was the real reason why Ji Ling dared to accept the invitation.
Anyway, he would not die. What was there to be afraid of?
Butler Anderson respectfully welcomed Ji Ling in. He had long been ordered by His Excellency the Duke to take good care of Ji Ling and treat him as the owner of the mansion. He could not let him feel the slightest bit unhappy.
This was the first time His Excellency the Duke valued someone so much. Although Anderson was puzzled, he did not understand why a famous playboy like Ji Ling would be treated so seriously by His Excellency the Duke, but he still strictly carried out the order.
Anderson brought Ji Ling to the Duke's residence and said respectfully, "His Excellency the Duke has something to attend to and is not back yet. You can rest here and wait for a while."
Ji Ling looked at the lush and beautiful garden in front of him, surrounded by all kinds of rare plants and flowers. In the depths of the boulevard was a retro three-story European-style building, which had an inexplicable sense of history.
Compared to the steel jungle outside that was filled with the sci-fi feel of the Interstellar Era, coming here made people feel as if they had traveled through time.
Eh, I didn't expect Ka Luosi to be such a nostalgic person.
Ji Ling nodded. "Alright."
Anderson ordered the maids and servants to prepare exquisite tea and snacks for Ji Ling. He also ordered everyone to serve Ji Ling well before he turned and left.
Ji Ling walked around, smelling the fragrance of the flowers. He raised his head and looked at the blue sky. What a beautiful scenery.
He was admiring this place, but he didn't know that others were admiring him as well.
The servants of the Duke's residence looked curiously at the handsome, elf-like youth walking among the green flowers. This was the famous hedonistic Ji Ling, the precious only son of Grand Duke Ji Ting. It was said that he was tyrannical and did all kinds of evil, extremely arrogant … So this was what he looked like. When he wasn't doing bad things, he looked so peaceful …
So, an ugly person wasn't necessarily a bad person, and a good-looking person wasn't necessarily a good person. You can't judge a person by their appearance!
Moreover, no one expected His Excellency the Duke to dote on him so much that he even let him come here.
It should be known that the Duke's Mansion was huge and had many areas. However, the area where Carlos lived was a forbidden area.
Other than the occasional meeting with his confidants in the study, Ka Luosi had never allowed anyone else to set foot here, let alone let a hedonistic youth wander around freely.
This was the first time the servants saw His Excellency the Duke entertain guests here. It was self-evident how special Ji Ling was, so everyone was extremely respectful to him, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Ji Ling didn't know what the servants were thinking. As he walked, he began to think about how he could find clues here. It would be better to see if he could find anything before Ka Luosi returned.
So, Ji Ling turned around and entered the house.
The building was not made of common metals, but of rare stone and precious wood. In the Interstellar Era, these materials were far more expensive than metals.
In the spacious hall, there were all kinds of decorations, each of which was extraordinary.
Everywhere, one could see low-key luxury.
Ji Ling was amazed, but he wasn't here to admire Ka Luosi's wealth. His goal was to see if there were any clues about rebirth in Ka Luosi's house, so he didn't stay in the hall for long and walked up the spiral staircase. When he reached the second floor, he saw a heavy solid wooden door at the end of the corridor. He wanted to go and take a look.
However, before he could get close, he was stopped by a servant. The servant bowed respectfully and said, "This is His Excellency the Duke's study. You can't go in."
Ji Ling's eyes lit up. So he couldn't go in here?!
Didn't he wander around here for half a day to see if there was anything unusual? Seeing the servant's nervous expression, he knew that people were usually not allowed to enter the study. That was why he stopped him. The study … was usually a secret place. The more Ji Ling was not allowed to go, the more he wanted to go in!
This was the place!
Ji Ling immediately showed an unhappy expression and said coldly, "Move, how dare you stop me."
