Ten days later, the main pavilion of Shadow Gate.

He Zhizhou came back from the outside, and was about to go back to the room, but happened to see Mo Luo coming out from behind the stone mountain in the small garden.For the past month, apart from running around in Chaozhou, he was dealing with missions in Xuanzhou. Although he came back later, he stayed at the son-in-law's mansion day and night to protect the son-in-law's safety. As a result, he hadn't seen Mo Luo for a long time.

He and Mo Luo are very close brothers and sisters, so they missed him after not seeing him for a long time. Seeing that Mo Luo was in a hurry and didn't seem to notice him, He Zhizhou simply stepped forward to say hello to Mo Luo, but As he stepped forward, he saw Mo Luo's reddish eyes just in time.

"Molo?"

He Zhizhou's footsteps subconsciously quickened for a moment, and when he raised his breath, he touched his toes, and it landed in front of Mo Luo lightly and skillfully.

Mo Luo probably didn't expect to see him at this time, and was a little surprised for a while, "Brother? Why are you here..."

"Your Majesty invites the son-in-law to stay in the palace for a while. I don't need my guards. I will come back first." He Zhizhou answered briefly, frowning at the corners of her red and swollen eyes, "What's wrong? Who upset you ?"

Probably because he noticed the direction of He Zhizhou's gaze, Mo Luo subconsciously reached out and touched the corner of his eyes, facing He Zhizhou's worried expression, forced a smile, "It's nothing, I didn't pay attention just now, probably sand got into my eyes."

But there is no wind today, so where can the sand come from to confuse her eyes?He Zhizhou was naturally aware of Moluo's perfunctory, although he didn't directly question Moluo's faults, but facing Moluo's strangeness, the worry in his eyes was clearly untrue.

Seeing his concern, Mo Luo's eyes became even more stingy, but she naturally couldn't speak, but still held on.

The concern between He Zhizhou's eyebrows became more intense.Mo Luo stared fixedly at He Zhizhou who was anxious for him, and asked a question under his throat for a long time.

"Brother, do you like your life now?"

He Zhizhou was surprised for a moment, "Why do you ask such a question?"

However, Mo Luo was stubborn at this time. She looked at He Zhizhou fixedly, as if she would not give up until she got the answer, and repeated her question again.

"Brother, do you like your life now? Do you think you are happy now?"

Although He Zhizhou didn't know why Mo Luo was so strange today, he deliberately slowed down his tone of voice for Mo Luo who was obviously out of mood, and tried his best not to irritate her with his words.

"Life now? Although there will still be some weird tasks, it is much easier than before. When you have something to do, you can complete the task well. I know that the bastards who are messing around don't increase my workload, don't cause trouble and fights, and I'm already very leisurely."

"Are you free...?" Mo Luo smiled suspiciously, "Yes, brother, you should like this kind of life in the first place."

He Zhizhou originally tried to use a relaxed tone to make Mo Luo happy, but he saw that Mo Luo who was a little emotional at first seemed to be crying and laughing suddenly, with a hint of joy or sadness that he couldn't tell.

"But I don't like it." She chuckled dumbly, with an indescribable mocking determination in her voice.

"Molo..." He Zhizhou looked at her with some hesitation, keenly aware that she was not in the right state. He wanted to go up to pull Molo's hand, but was slapped away by Molo.

"But I don't like it. Brother, I don't like to be someone else's lackey all the time. I don't want to be restricted and ordered by others everywhere, and I can't help myself all the time!" When she said this, she said every word firmly.

Mo Luo has always been gentle and caring, even He Zhizhou, who grew up with him, has never seen such a resolute and stubborn appearance of her.

And... such words are really a bit outrageous for people of their status.

After Mo Luo said these words, he turned and left. He Zhizhou was worried and naturally wanted to go forward to ask questions, but he never knew where a shadow guard ran out in a hurry. Without a word, he grabbed He Zhizhou's hand and pulled him forward. If you want to get angry, just listen to the shadow guard report to him ecstatically, "Chief, the old chief is back! I'm waiting to see you in the front hall now!"

"You said the master is back?"

The old chief left the capital after he abdicated. Since He Zhizhou took office, he has not seen the old chief for a year or two. Hearing such news at this moment, his face is naturally full of surprises.He couldn't help but asked again in amazement, but without waiting for the shadow guard's answer, he had already used his lightness kung fu to leave first.

Obviously, unless the shadow guard didn't want to live anymore, he wouldn't have the guts to make fun of the old chief and the new chief even if he had the guts of a bear.

When He Zhizhou rushed to the front hall with light work, he saw a middle-aged man in green clothes standing in the hall with his hands behind his hands.

"master!"

He Zhizhou has always been calm in Yingmen, but this time, anyone can clearly hear the joy in his voice.

Hearing the voice, the middle-aged man turned around. His face was just like the simple and plain Tsing Yi. There was nothing special about him. He was ordinary enough to be forgotten at a glance. There was no abrupt aura around him, just ordinary His eyes were calm and calm, but there was only a little warmth and softness when he looked at He Zhizhou who was striding in.

The meeting between master and apprentice is not something to make a fuss about, and there is no need for any red tape between them.The old chief sat on the seat and took a sip of the hot tea that He Zhizhou personally made for him, and then slowly said, "I already have a clue about the two shadow guards in Chaozhou. The son-in-law agreed not long ago to hand them over to the hidden guards over there, but for some reason, the dark guards still refused to let them go."

"The dark guards detain people?" He Zhizhou frowned a little, "Why do they detain our people?"

The old chief shook his head slightly, "I have already brought you the news, since you are now the chief, then you can do these things yourself, I will not ask any more questions"

He Zhizhou had another short talk with the old chief, but he still remembered Mo Luo who had looked wrong just now. After hesitating for a moment, he still offered to resign first, but the old chief asked him one more question when he saw his hasty expression.

"...I just saw Mo Luo's appearance is not right, I'm afraid it's because I'm not feeling well, so I plan to go see her again." Just now what Mo Luo said was some "rebellious" words, He Zhizhou hesitated slightly, but only vaguely explained.

He Zhizhou bid farewell to the old chief, and knocked on Mo Luo's room again, but there was a period of time in the middle, and Mo Luo obviously had calmed down when he went again.

Mo Luo was not surprised when he saw He Zhizhou coming, and even smiled at him faintly. After a moment of silence, he took the initiative to bring up the matter just now.

"Senior brother, I know you are wondering why I would say such a thing suddenly. But senior brother, I am also a woman, and I am only a woman. I don't want to be a sword in other people's hands, nor a pawn on a chessboard. Fighting and killing, conspiracy and calculation, I want to live in peace and ease, I also want to dress up beautifully; I also want to chat with my sisters carefree; I also want to marry a lover, Take care of your husband and teach your son, and accompany him to travel through this wonderful country."

When Mo Luo said this, he looked at He Zhizhou without blinking his eyes, as if he wanted to read something from his eyes.He Zhizhou obviously didn't expect Mo Luo to say such words, and he was stunned for a moment.But his face was only unnatural for a moment, and then he smiled and took Mo Luo's hand, "I didn't expect my lively junior sister to have such thoughts, but since you think so, I will call you Waige from now on." How much will the girls stay with you?"

However, Mo Luo lowered his eyes, and she had heard He Zhizhou's attitude from these words.

——This is also a matter of course, not to mention his role as the chief shadow guard, even his status does not allow him to have half of this idea.

So Mo Luo withdrew his hand, after all, looking into He Zhizhou's eyes, he cut off his last self-deception word by word, "Brother, I have someone I like, I really, really like him very much, he can give me A lot of things I want and can't get."

He Zhizhou completely withdrew the pretended ease on his face, and stood silently for a long time. His eyes were full of confusion, loss, self-blame, and sarcasm. Looking at his expression, Mo Luo finally shed tears. She cried Her shoulders were trembling slightly, just like the helpless little girl who had just been brought into the Shadow Pavilion back then.

He Zhizhou closed his eyes, and after opening them again, he finally regained his clarity.

For Mo Luo, he always had nothing to do. He gently wiped away the teardrops from the corners of Mo Luo's eyes, just like taking care of the crying little cat with snot all over his face, and said with a sigh, "Really... ...Do you really like him that much? You like him enough to abandon your senior brother for him?"

He still wanted to save it, but Mo Luo turned his head and didn't want to look at him again. His attitude was too obvious. Mo Luo finally flashed across He Zhizhou's face, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "What is he... People? What's their name?"

Being able to ask such a sentence means that he agrees.Mo Luo knew He Zhizhou's character best - she had already known that He Zhizhou would agree to this point.But obviously everything went as he expected, but Mo Luo couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad, sad or relieved at this moment.

But the matter has reached this point, and there is no chance of regretting it. Mo Luo can only force himself to be hard-hearted, looking into He Zhizhou's eyes, with mixed feelings in every word, "Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Wang Sun."

He Zhizhou, who was originally downcast, sharpened his eyes at this moment, and stared straight at her with sword-like eyes. At this moment, he was not a senior brother who compromised for Mo Luo's happiness, but the high-ranking chief of Shadow Gate, Don't give Mo Luo any room to back down.

——"The new minister of rites, Wang Sun? Did you know that he has a wife, and even a marriage bestowed by His Majesty himself!?"

He blamed himself for not being able to satisfy the life that Mo Luo wanted, so he was willing to endure the pain and compromise the happiness that Mo Luo wanted, but this does not mean that he has no bottom line; it does not mean that he can watch being pampered and grow up It doesn't mean that he can walk straight from a single-plank bridge to a road of no return regardless of Mo Luo!

However, this time, the understanding Mo Luo obviously failed to understand his brother's painstaking efforts, and was still stubborn to the extreme.

"Come here, look at Mo Luo, and don't allow her to step out of the door."

He Zhizhou looked at Mo Luo who was kneeling on the ground begging him, commanded the astonished shadow guard in a hoarse voice, forced to hide the pain in his heart and the irony of himself, and left without looking back.

Mo Luo, who fell to the ground, seemed to have lost all his strength in an instant, and only tears rolled down his eyes.The shadow guard next to him was at a loss and didn't know what was going on. Looking at the furious He Zhizhou who wanted to stop him but didn't dare to stop him, he could only help Mo Luo who was on the ground and sighed softly.

"Why did you make the chief angry? He has always been so kind to you."

"Yeah, he's always been so good to me..."

Mo Luo gave a bitter smile, and there was no sense of sadness in his words.

Brother, I don't want to be a pawn, but there are some things that must be done by someone.You have always been so kind to me, so this time, it is my return to you.
