Thousands of miles away from the capital city, in an open wilderness, a gloomy and handsome man was sweating profusely and brandishing a hoe.
There is a bamboo basket beside him, which has already put a lot of stones. This is his daily work. After the basket is full, he will carry them to the town dozens of miles away to exchange for a day's rations. .
Wen Shen straightened his waist, and wiped his sweat angrily, the palms of those once precious hands were already callused.
Looking at the sun that was about to set, Wen Shen put away the hoe and carried the basket of stones on his back.
As usual, he looked in the direction of the capital, his expression was cloudy and uncertain. Every time he looked at it, he would remind himself in his heart that one day he would definitely return to that place again and take back what belonged to him. Right now, what he needs is Rest and recuperate for the day to come.
Carrying a bamboo basket, he walked to the town. This town is called Qinghe Town. This town specializes in ore production. However, the labor force in Qinghe Town is far less than the output of ore, so this place has also become a place of exile. The exiled people can only Daily mining to make a living, except for the exchange time, you are not allowed to enter the town, and there is an exchange point in the center of the town, which is the purpose of Wen Shen's trip.
After the failure of the rebellion, Qinghe Town also posted his portrait. Every time he could only change some rations, he left quickly. If he stayed too long, the town officials would use various excuses to make trouble.
Today he was the same as usual, he exchanged two bean cakes and a small handful of brown rice for a basket of ore.
Normally, Wen Shen wouldn't bother to see these things, let alone use them to feed his hunger, but after such a long time of grinding, he could already swallow them without changing his face.
While eating bean cakes to satisfy his hunger, he walked back with a bamboo basket. Now he lives not far from the mine.
When he got home, it was already dark for a long time, and the cold bean cakes in his hand tasted like chewing wax, but he still swallowed them all carefully, because if he didn’t eat enough today, he wouldn’t have the strength to go digging again tomorrow. Why is Wen Shen reconciled?
Carefully put the small handful of brown rice into the rice jar, which is one of the few grains he has stored up. Although brown rice is not delicious, it is much better than bean cakes. Wen Shen usually does not eat it , Only when he is sick and uncomfortable will he cook some rice porridge to drink, which is enough to show how difficult his life is.
But it was so, and he persisted in his heart with one breath, he wanted to live a good life, and then trampled on the soles of his feet those things that once underestimated him.
At night, when Wen Shen was lying half asleep and half awake on the hard plank bed, he heard a loud "boom" not far away, which instantly woke Wen Shen up like a dream.
He sat up and got out of bed quickly, opened the wooden door and looked in the direction of the mine. There was blood red there, and tongues of flames were flying rapidly.
Why is it on fire?Although he was puzzled, Wen Shen didn't plan to take a closer look, because there was no grass growing on the ore. Although the fire looked fierce now, there was no way to burn it, and it would go out within an hour. Maybe he could go to that area tomorrow to have a look.
Sure enough, the fire died down in the middle of the night. On the second day, Wen Shen used to walk to the mine with a bamboo basket on his back. The direction he went was the place where the fire started yesterday.
The mine has been burnt to black, and it seems that something has happened here. There are scattered stones everywhere, so Wen Shen doesn't need to dig hard, just move those scattered stones into the bamboo basket.
He walked along the scattered stones, and there was a stone mountain piled up not far away, Wen Shen raised his eyebrows, it was sleepy and someone gave him a pillow.
Put the bamboo basket aside, and move the accumulated stones into the bamboo basket one by one.
As the number of stones decreased, Wen Shen suddenly stopped, revealing a white waxy hand from under the chaotic rocks.
The tentacles were still warm, so he hurriedly pushed away the stone that was pressing on the man, revealing the man under the pressure, with a pair of narrow eyes and straight eyebrows, a high nose bridge, sharp edges and corners. With an exotic face, even if this person's face is stained with mud, he is still very handsome.
Wen Shen's movements paused, this person was not related to him, so he wanted to turn a blind eye and leave with a bamboo basket on his back.
But his eyes fell on the brocade satin robe on this man, and then slid to the white jade finger on the other's finger, and his thoughts turned.
He pushed out the basket of ore that was almost full, carried the bamboo basket on his chest, and then carried the sleeping man on his back, and walked to his home under the mine step by step.
The man was tall and heavy, but for Wen Shen, who was used to walking tens of miles with a basket of stones on his back, it was easy for him to put him on the wooden bed.
Then he went to the rice pot to scoop up some brown rice and boiled it. He didn't change the food today. Fortunately, there were still some bean cakes left from yesterday. He planned to drink it with rice porridge later.
I don't know how long it took, just when Wen Shen propped his head and felt a little drowsy, the man on the bed moved, and he sat up suddenly from the bed, with a look of shock on his face, obviously he had some kind of nightmare.
He made a lot of noise, waking up Wen Shen who was beside him.
"you're awake?"
As he spoke, the man on the bed looked over, and there was a moment of silence in the darkness.
"who are you?"
"Me?" Wen Shen smiled, "I am Wen Shen, and this is my home."
"Why am I here?" The man looked at him warily.
"I found you in the mine this morning. Seeing that you were still breathing, I brought you back."
The man was silent again, and after a long time he said: "What about the others? Where are they?"
"Other people?" Wen Shen raised his eyebrows, "I didn't find anyone else except you, maybe they left." Even if there were, who knew where they went because of the fire yesterday.
"Impossible!" The man was categorical, as if he didn't believe what Wen Shen said.
Wen Shen stood up and walked to the porridge that was cooking aside. The sweet taste made him feel a little hungry.
"Whether it's possible or impossible, when I found you, you were the only one."
He got a bowl of porridge and walked up to the man, and put the bowl beside the bed under the watchful eyes of the man.
"Now, it's time for me to ask you." He blew on the hot porridge, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The man didn't speak, but he didn't hide the guard in his eyes. Of course, Wen Shen understood this look. I'm afraid this person didn't know how many hardships he had gone through before, which made Wen Shen even more curious about his identity.
And in this weird silence, an untimely sound came from the man's stomach.
The man on the bed was momentarily embarrassed.
Wen Shen raised his eyes to look at him, and gestured with his chin to the bowl of porridge on the side of the bed, "What? Afraid I might poison it?"
The man looked at the bowl of porridge. Although he was very hungry, he had no intention of moving.
Until Wen Shen picked up the bowl in front of him and took a sip, "You have to know that this rice is very precious in this place, if you don't want to drink it, then give it to me."
Seeing Wen Shen take a sip first, the man's expression finally eased up a bit. He reached out to pick up the bowl, thanked him in a low voice before taking a sip from the bowl.
After drinking the warm porridge, the uncomfortable stomach healed, and the whole person also recovered a little bit.
Wen Shen just waited quietly for him to finish his drink before saying, "Can you tell me who you are now?"
The man hesitated for a while and finally said, "I...my name is Mu Chengying. I was originally from the capital. My family was in trouble. When I came out to escape the disaster, I met my enemy. Last night, my enemy came to find me."
Beijing?Surnamed Mu?It's no wonder that Wen Shen went to Yu Guomu's house, there were many aristocratic families surnamed Mu in the Wen Dynasty, and he thought that Mu Chengying was just one of them.
Although he is not considered a big family, he is still from the capital, and seeing him dressed in extraordinary clothes, it is always useful when he thinks about it.
He nodded and stopped asking, "Now that you are here, does your enemy know?" If this is the case, Wen Shen will have to reconsider, after all, he is not a person who likes trouble.
Mu Chengying shook his head and said, "Most of the enemies who caught up yesterday are already dead. I'm afraid the remaining ones won't be able to find my trace for a while, otherwise I won't be able to sit here comfortably now."
Wen Shen nodded, "I think so, but what are your plans for the future?"
The man was silent for a while, before saying: "I'm afraid I'll bother you for a while." He took off the wrench and put it in front of Wen Shen as he spoke, "I have nowhere to go now, if you let me stay, This is just some kindness, when I return to the capital in the future, I will not forget today's kindness."
Wen Shen looked at the smooth and jade-like wrench without stretching out his hand, but just pushed it back with a sneer, "I don't want these."
"Then..." Mu Chengying waited for him to propose a condition.
"It's not impossible to stay, as long as you can find a way to bring me back after you return to the capital."
Mu Chengying looked the person in front of him up and down, only to realize that although this person was wearing common clothes, he was sitting upright, and his temperament was completely different from that of ordinary countrymen. His somewhat gloomy face was exceptionally handsome. I can see some arrogance.
"Yes." When he returns to Yu Country, it will be the day when he will make a comeback. It will be easy for him to bring someone back to Beijing, even if this person may have concealed his identity.
Wen Shen smiled when he heard the words, as long as he can return to Beijing again, there must be a day when he will come back again.
"Since it's been agreed, if you want to stay, you have to change your own rations." He said, walking aside and throwing the hoe into the bamboo basket in front of Mu Chengying, "I don't support idlers. The porridge you drink today will be deducted from your ration, and starting tomorrow, you will go to the mine with me."
Mu Chengying looked at the bottomless bowl of porridge, his face darkened, "You still have to be so clear about something so bad?"
It's no wonder that Mu Chengying's face was dark. When he was in Yu Kingdom, he was a favored prince. Even if he escaped from the disaster, the people below didn't let him go hungry. It was only because he was so hungry that he drank the hard-to-eat porridge just now.
Wen Jue just looked at him when he heard the words, "Do you know where this is?"
"This is a place of exile. There is nothing but mining for some food. The bowl of porridge you just drank was carefully saved by me. From tomorrow onwards, you will eat bean cakes with me."
Mu Chengying: "..."
Although speechless, he also understands the reason why people have to bow their heads under the eaves. It's not that they haven't suffered, but no one can order him like that.
Passing the empty bowl in his hand angrily, "I'm hungry, here's a bowl."
Wen Shen: "......"
Seeing that he didn't move, Mu Chengying said again: "I'll have the energy to work tomorrow after I'm full."
When the two of them finally filled their stomachs, it was completely dark outside. Wen Shen did not go to mine today, and both of them ate the brown rice saved during these days. Seeing that a lot of rice jars were missing, Wen Shen secretly thought to himself Decided to take an extra bamboo basket tomorrow.
"You, sleep on the floor." Wen Shen ordered as a matter of course.
Mu Chengying seemed a little unbelievable, "You let me sleep on the floor?" Although this wooden bed is no different from the hard floor, but the wooden plank is a bed after all, when did he sleep on the floor again?
"This bed is so small, where will I sleep if you sleep?"
Seeing that no one was moving, Wen Shen said again: "Don't forget that you are begging me to keep you now. If you don't want to sleep on the floor, there are still some straws."
Wen Shen raised his chin to signal Mu Chengying to look at the pile of straw, "If you still can't get used to sleeping, I'll mine more ore tomorrow and come back with a wooden plank. Anyway, come down now."
Mu Chengying was anxious but helpless. Wen Jue was right. Now he is dependent on someone else, but it didn't prevent him from whipping this man hard in his heart. When he returns to Beijing in the future, he will definitely bring this man back. repay"!
The tall man got out of bed, went to the side, tidied up the straw, and lay down on it. He was really tired, and the days of chasing and killing made him exhausted.
And Wen Shen was lying on the bed that still had Mu Chengying's body temperature, a trace of heat came through his back, and it was a rare thing that he slept extraordinarily peacefully.
Early the next morning, the two went to the mine with bamboo baskets on their backs. Mu Chengying was not very proficient in mining at first, but with Wen Shen's help, he finally got used to it. Bamboo baskets are filled to the brim.
Wen Shen took him to the exchange point in Qinghe Town, and exchanged two baskets of stones for four bean cakes and two handfuls of brown rice, and exchanged the remaining one for some money.
In fact, Wen Shen didn't want to change it. Compared with bean cakes and brown rice, the money in exchange couldn't even afford two bean cakes. If Mu Chengying hadn't made a fuss about buying wooden boards, he wouldn't have planned to exchange such uneconomical things.
The two walked around the town, and finally chose a plank that looked okay, but it also took a lot of time.
So when the two were about to go back with the wooden board, several officials came to the door, and one of them held a portrait and looked at Wen Shen's face.
"Exiles, the rule that you are not allowed to enter the town except for exchange time is so difficult that you don't understand?"
Wen Shen frowned. In fact, the stipulated time limit has not been exceeded. These people in front of him are obviously looking for trouble.
"The stipulated time limit is within one hour from entering the town, and it has not yet reached the time limit of one hour."
The few officials looked at each other, and the one who took the lead laughed sinisterly, "I told you that your time limit is up, so you just obediently get out of Qinghe Town. Exiles are not welcome here."
"You!", Wen Shen was impatient, but his form was stronger than that of a person. Although he used to be a prince, he is just an ordinary person now.
He pulled Mu Chengying who was frowning at the side, and said in a blunt tone: "Let's leave now."
As he spoke, he dragged Mu Chengying forward, but the official didn't intend to let him go like this. He stretched out his hand and pulled Wen Shen staggeringly, and the wooden board in his hand fell to the ground.
The officer stomped on it fiercely, and split the wooden plank that had just been replaced into two, "What? We want to leave like this after contradicting you? There's no such thing as cheap."
Wen Shen looked at the board that had just been replaced just like that being trampled into pieces, and an unspeakable anger rushed over him. When had Wen Shen suffered such humiliation?Where did the little fish and shrimp come from and crawled on his head and splashed.
However, before Wen Shen could move, he saw the person next to him step forward and punch the official in the face.
"Mu Chengying!" Wen Shen was startled, but was soon overwhelmed by the confusion.
He didn't know how it ended in the end, he only knew that there were more and more officials, and they beat and kicked around them, and the tall man defended him to death.
By the time those officials had exhausted their anger and blasted people out of Qinghe Town, all the items they carried today had already disappeared in the chaos.
In the dark thatched hut, a wax lamp was trembling with flames.
The tall man was sitting beside the wooden bed, and Wen Shen was squatting in front of him, holding a wet cloth soaked in warm water in his hand and applying it to a bruise on the man's lower abdomen.
"Why are you so impulsive? Who do you think we are?"
The man was silent for a while, "Then let them bully you like this?"
"Otherwise?" Wen Shen said as he pressed his fingertips on the bruise, in exchange for a man's hissing sound, "This is the result."
Mu Chengying was silent again, Wen Shen thought he was still angry, but unexpectedly the man asked some individual questions. "Why were you exiled?"
Wen Shen paused while holding the handkerchief, "It's better that you don't know about this kind of problem."
The two of them were speechless again. Seeing that the bruises on Mu Chengying's waist and abdomen had faded, Wen Shen stood up and took off his clothes. He was also punched in the chest today. Ying is serious, but it will get better sooner after applying hot water.
He was so informal, but he didn't know that Mu Chengying who was sitting behind him was following him with wolf-like eyes. .bare. .body moves.
Mu Chengying liked men, which he discovered a long time ago, but Wen Shen didn't know that, in Wen Shen's view, men should like women, and he didn't understand Long Yang's goodness, so he didn't understand Mu Chengying. Ying did not shy away from it.
Putting down the handkerchief, Wen Shen went to the rice vat to scoop up the last bit of brown rice and put it in the pot.
"Today is a waste of time, tomorrow I have to go to the mine to dig rocks again, otherwise you and I will only be hungry."
Seeing that Mu Chengying didn't answer, he turned his head and looked over, meeting a pair of slightly aggressive gazes.
Wen Shen raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you looking at?"
Mu Chengying smiled evilly, "I didn't expect you to have such a good figure."
Wen Shen followed his gaze and looked down, and said indifferently: "Your attention is really strange. If you don't want to be hungry tomorrow, get up early and follow me to the mine."
He put a bowl of porridge in front of Mu Chengying, "This will also be deducted from your ration."
The tall man's eyes turned accordingly, and after a long time, he buried his head in a mouthful of porridge and said in a low voice, "Stingy."
It rained outside in the middle of the night. For this kind of thatched cottage, once it rains, the ground is very wet.
Mu Chengying sat up from the pile of straw, looked at the wooden bed, "Wen Shen, are you asleep?"
"What are you doing up in the middle of the night?"
"The ground is too wet to sleep in. I need a bed."
Wen Shen said angrily, "Could it be that you still want me to sleep on the floor?"
Mu Chengying smiled, "I'm not as cruel as you, just divide the bed in half."
"No, it's too crowded." Wen Shen refused without thinking.
Mu Chengying knew that he would say that, and his eyes were fixed on the snow-white arm exposed outside the quilt.
"I was injured today because of you. If I sleep in such a humid place, I will not be able to go to the mine with you if it gets cold tomorrow, and you will have to take care of me."
What Mu Chengying said was right, if he fell ill, it would not be affordable for the current Wen Shen.
After a long silence, he gave way in, revealing half of the space and said, "You are only allowed to sleep up tonight. If you can't get the money for the plank tomorrow, you can continue to sleep on the floor."
The tall man curled his lips into a smile in the dark, and got into Wen Shen's bed with a little bit of air-conditioning.
In the darkness, apart from the sound of raindrops outside the house, there is only the sound of each other's breathing, meat.stick. .Meat, the scorching hot feeling poured in from the side, bringing a crispy and numb feeling.
In this kind of weather and atmosphere, I would feel sorry for myself if I didn't do anything, so Mu Chengying followed his heart without any hesitation, turned over and put Wen Shen under him.
"What are you doing?" Wen Shen was a little annoyed.
"Of course it's what you should do at a time like this!"
In the darkness, only the sound of fierce fighting could be heard from the wooden bed, but as time passed, the sound of fighting changed completely, and the air lingered with a fishy-sweet smell and chaotic breathing... ....
The next day, Mu Chengying got up from the bed and saw that Wen Shen was still sleeping. He smiled and kissed the man on the cheek, and went to the mine with three backpacks.
When he came back with two handfuls of brown rice, four bean cakes and a board that was bigger than the original board, Wen Shen had finished washing and was sitting by the bed.
Seeing Mu Chengying walking in with something, he grabbed the thing on the side without thinking and threw it at it.
"roll!"
Mu Chengying dodged and dodged, put the things down, and said as a matter of course: "We made an agreement before, let me stay here during this time."
"I've changed my mind now, you can go."
Mu Chengying walked over in silence, and sat down next to Wen Shen. Almost at the same time, Wen Shen wanted to stand up and leave.
But the man grabbed him, "You are the second prince of Wen Dynasty."
Just such a sentence made Wen Shen stop abruptly. Qinghe Town posted his portrait, but did not explain his identity and what he committed. How did Mu Chengying know?
"You must be wondering how I know your identity? If you want to know, sit down now."
Wen Shen paused, then sat down.
"Would you change your mind if I said my identity could help you start over?"
When the words fell, Wen Shen suddenly turned to look at him, "What do you mean?"
"Not only can I help you return to Beijing, but I can also help you do things that others cannot, as long as you keep me now."
"What is your identity? The Mu family in the capital doesn't have such great ability, or is your name fake?"
The man played with Wen Shen's soft hands, "You don't need to know my real identity now, you just need to decide whether to take a gamble or not."
"If you win the bet, you can get the world, and if you lose, you have nothing to lose, right?" Mu Chengying bewitched, a hand was already on Wen Shen's frowning cheek.
After a while of silence, Wen Shen didn't push Mu Chengying away, the man smiled triumphantly, and led the man back, "Now, let's do something else."
From this day on, the straw in the thatched cottage was completely taken out by Mu Chengying, and the narrow wooden bed was also replaced with a size that could accommodate two people lying side by side.
During the day, Wen Shen and Mu Chengying went up the mountain to dig ore, but in the middle of the night, there were always some blushing voices coming from this small thatched cottage.
After just one year, this dilapidated thatched cottage finally welcomed several luxurious guests.
Wen Shen sat on the edge of the bed and watched Mu Chengying talk with these people coldly, during which some people turned their heads to look at him from time to time.
After the conversation was over, Mu Chengying sent the person out before he sat down by the bed and kissed Wen Shen's face, "What? It's so difficult that I did it too hard last night, and today I have such a cold face .”
Wen Shen pushed Mu Chengying's face away. He didn't know where the boredom came from, but he just said coldly, "When are you leaving?"
Mu Chengying was silent for a while before saying: "Tomorrow morning."
Wen Shen sneered, "It's fine to leave, but don't forget your promise."
Mu Chengying stretched out his arms to hug him, "What? Just let me go like this?"
"Otherwise? Only when you go back, can I have a chance to stand up, right?"
"Is this the only thing that's difficult between us?"
"Then what else do you want? Don't you think you can still mess up this year. Can you show your feelings?"
Mu Chengying's teeth itched a bit when he heard the words, and a word popped out between his teeth, "That's right."
He stood up, calmed down the throbbing and turned around, "I'm going to pack my things."
Wen Shen didn't speak, just kept looking at him coldly.
At night, there was another blushing and heartbeating sound from the thatched cottage, but this time, the sound was twice as loud, and it was late at night when it stopped.
Mu Chengying was lying on the wooden bed with Wen Shen in his arms, looking down, the young man had fallen asleep tiredly.
"Only when you are asleep, you will look so cute." He stroked Wen Shen's back with his hands, and the nostalgia in his heart could not be ignored, "Wait, I will definitely come back to pick you up."
Putting a last kiss on Wen Shen's forehead, he turned over and got off the bed and left the hut with the things he had prepared.
There was someone waiting outside with a horse, and seeing Mu Chengying coming out, he said respectfully, "Your Highness."
"Let's go!", the man just dropped one word and got on the horse, and finally looked back at the thatched cottage, put away those thoughts and rode away.
In the thatched hut, the sleepy young man was wearing a shirt and sitting on the bed at this moment. His expression was always indifferent, but there was a reluctance in his eyes that could not be ignored.
Two years later, Yu Chengying, the prince of the Yu Kingdom, fought his way out among the princes and became the emperor of the Yu Kingdom in one fell swoop. He just took the throne and washed the court with blood. All of a sudden, a bloody storm erupted in Yu Country.
In the same year, Yu Chengying changed the name of the country to Mu. So far, Yu's century-old rule has completely withdrawn from history, and Mu has come to the fore.
After the founding of Mu Kingdom, the new emperor did two major things. One of them was to send the princess to the Wen Dynasty to make peace with Prince Wen Qian, in exchange for the stability of the family and country for a hundred years. This move was praised by the people.
Second, King Mu is going to marry the queen of Mu, and this queen is not a noble daughter of any family, but a man brought back from the wilderness.
Speaking of this male queen, although no one has seen her real face, there are many messages.
Some people say that the male queen's appearance is like a fairy, which can confuse people's hearts like a banished fairy.
It is also said that the male queen is the reincarnation of a goblin, and she came to find King Mu to repay the kindness of her previous life.
But no matter what the rumors say, what remains unchanged is that everyone knows that the male queen's surname is Wen. As for what is Wen?That is not important, what is important is that these two people will go on happily for a long time in the future......

So, see you in the next world!
There is a bamboo basket beside him, which has already put a lot of stones. This is his daily work. After the basket is full, he will carry them to the town dozens of miles away to exchange for a day's rations. .
Wen Shen straightened his waist, and wiped his sweat angrily, the palms of those once precious hands were already callused.
Looking at the sun that was about to set, Wen Shen put away the hoe and carried the basket of stones on his back.
As usual, he looked in the direction of the capital, his expression was cloudy and uncertain. Every time he looked at it, he would remind himself in his heart that one day he would definitely return to that place again and take back what belonged to him. Right now, what he needs is Rest and recuperate for the day to come.
Carrying a bamboo basket, he walked to the town. This town is called Qinghe Town. This town specializes in ore production. However, the labor force in Qinghe Town is far less than the output of ore, so this place has also become a place of exile. The exiled people can only Daily mining to make a living, except for the exchange time, you are not allowed to enter the town, and there is an exchange point in the center of the town, which is the purpose of Wen Shen's trip.
After the failure of the rebellion, Qinghe Town also posted his portrait. Every time he could only change some rations, he left quickly. If he stayed too long, the town officials would use various excuses to make trouble.
Today he was the same as usual, he exchanged two bean cakes and a small handful of brown rice for a basket of ore.
Normally, Wen Shen wouldn't bother to see these things, let alone use them to feed his hunger, but after such a long time of grinding, he could already swallow them without changing his face.
While eating bean cakes to satisfy his hunger, he walked back with a bamboo basket. Now he lives not far from the mine.
When he got home, it was already dark for a long time, and the cold bean cakes in his hand tasted like chewing wax, but he still swallowed them all carefully, because if he didn’t eat enough today, he wouldn’t have the strength to go digging again tomorrow. Why is Wen Shen reconciled?
Carefully put the small handful of brown rice into the rice jar, which is one of the few grains he has stored up. Although brown rice is not delicious, it is much better than bean cakes. Wen Shen usually does not eat it , Only when he is sick and uncomfortable will he cook some rice porridge to drink, which is enough to show how difficult his life is.
But it was so, and he persisted in his heart with one breath, he wanted to live a good life, and then trampled on the soles of his feet those things that once underestimated him.
At night, when Wen Shen was lying half asleep and half awake on the hard plank bed, he heard a loud "boom" not far away, which instantly woke Wen Shen up like a dream.
He sat up and got out of bed quickly, opened the wooden door and looked in the direction of the mine. There was blood red there, and tongues of flames were flying rapidly.
Why is it on fire?Although he was puzzled, Wen Shen didn't plan to take a closer look, because there was no grass growing on the ore. Although the fire looked fierce now, there was no way to burn it, and it would go out within an hour. Maybe he could go to that area tomorrow to have a look.
Sure enough, the fire died down in the middle of the night. On the second day, Wen Shen used to walk to the mine with a bamboo basket on his back. The direction he went was the place where the fire started yesterday.
The mine has been burnt to black, and it seems that something has happened here. There are scattered stones everywhere, so Wen Shen doesn't need to dig hard, just move those scattered stones into the bamboo basket.
He walked along the scattered stones, and there was a stone mountain piled up not far away, Wen Shen raised his eyebrows, it was sleepy and someone gave him a pillow.
Put the bamboo basket aside, and move the accumulated stones into the bamboo basket one by one.
As the number of stones decreased, Wen Shen suddenly stopped, revealing a white waxy hand from under the chaotic rocks.
The tentacles were still warm, so he hurriedly pushed away the stone that was pressing on the man, revealing the man under the pressure, with a pair of narrow eyes and straight eyebrows, a high nose bridge, sharp edges and corners. With an exotic face, even if this person's face is stained with mud, he is still very handsome.
Wen Shen's movements paused, this person was not related to him, so he wanted to turn a blind eye and leave with a bamboo basket on his back.
But his eyes fell on the brocade satin robe on this man, and then slid to the white jade finger on the other's finger, and his thoughts turned.
He pushed out the basket of ore that was almost full, carried the bamboo basket on his chest, and then carried the sleeping man on his back, and walked to his home under the mine step by step.
The man was tall and heavy, but for Wen Shen, who was used to walking tens of miles with a basket of stones on his back, it was easy for him to put him on the wooden bed.
Then he went to the rice pot to scoop up some brown rice and boiled it. He didn't change the food today. Fortunately, there were still some bean cakes left from yesterday. He planned to drink it with rice porridge later.
I don't know how long it took, just when Wen Shen propped his head and felt a little drowsy, the man on the bed moved, and he sat up suddenly from the bed, with a look of shock on his face, obviously he had some kind of nightmare.
He made a lot of noise, waking up Wen Shen who was beside him.
"you're awake?"
As he spoke, the man on the bed looked over, and there was a moment of silence in the darkness.
"who are you?"
"Me?" Wen Shen smiled, "I am Wen Shen, and this is my home."
"Why am I here?" The man looked at him warily.
"I found you in the mine this morning. Seeing that you were still breathing, I brought you back."
The man was silent again, and after a long time he said: "What about the others? Where are they?"
"Other people?" Wen Shen raised his eyebrows, "I didn't find anyone else except you, maybe they left." Even if there were, who knew where they went because of the fire yesterday.
"Impossible!" The man was categorical, as if he didn't believe what Wen Shen said.
Wen Shen stood up and walked to the porridge that was cooking aside. The sweet taste made him feel a little hungry.
"Whether it's possible or impossible, when I found you, you were the only one."
He got a bowl of porridge and walked up to the man, and put the bowl beside the bed under the watchful eyes of the man.
"Now, it's time for me to ask you." He blew on the hot porridge, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The man didn't speak, but he didn't hide the guard in his eyes. Of course, Wen Shen understood this look. I'm afraid this person didn't know how many hardships he had gone through before, which made Wen Shen even more curious about his identity.
And in this weird silence, an untimely sound came from the man's stomach.
The man on the bed was momentarily embarrassed.
Wen Shen raised his eyes to look at him, and gestured with his chin to the bowl of porridge on the side of the bed, "What? Afraid I might poison it?"
The man looked at the bowl of porridge. Although he was very hungry, he had no intention of moving.
Until Wen Shen picked up the bowl in front of him and took a sip, "You have to know that this rice is very precious in this place, if you don't want to drink it, then give it to me."
Seeing Wen Shen take a sip first, the man's expression finally eased up a bit. He reached out to pick up the bowl, thanked him in a low voice before taking a sip from the bowl.
After drinking the warm porridge, the uncomfortable stomach healed, and the whole person also recovered a little bit.
Wen Shen just waited quietly for him to finish his drink before saying, "Can you tell me who you are now?"
The man hesitated for a while and finally said, "I...my name is Mu Chengying. I was originally from the capital. My family was in trouble. When I came out to escape the disaster, I met my enemy. Last night, my enemy came to find me."
Beijing?Surnamed Mu?It's no wonder that Wen Shen went to Yu Guomu's house, there were many aristocratic families surnamed Mu in the Wen Dynasty, and he thought that Mu Chengying was just one of them.
Although he is not considered a big family, he is still from the capital, and seeing him dressed in extraordinary clothes, it is always useful when he thinks about it.
He nodded and stopped asking, "Now that you are here, does your enemy know?" If this is the case, Wen Shen will have to reconsider, after all, he is not a person who likes trouble.
Mu Chengying shook his head and said, "Most of the enemies who caught up yesterday are already dead. I'm afraid the remaining ones won't be able to find my trace for a while, otherwise I won't be able to sit here comfortably now."
Wen Shen nodded, "I think so, but what are your plans for the future?"
The man was silent for a while, before saying: "I'm afraid I'll bother you for a while." He took off the wrench and put it in front of Wen Shen as he spoke, "I have nowhere to go now, if you let me stay, This is just some kindness, when I return to the capital in the future, I will not forget today's kindness."
Wen Shen looked at the smooth and jade-like wrench without stretching out his hand, but just pushed it back with a sneer, "I don't want these."
"Then..." Mu Chengying waited for him to propose a condition.
"It's not impossible to stay, as long as you can find a way to bring me back after you return to the capital."
Mu Chengying looked the person in front of him up and down, only to realize that although this person was wearing common clothes, he was sitting upright, and his temperament was completely different from that of ordinary countrymen. His somewhat gloomy face was exceptionally handsome. I can see some arrogance.
"Yes." When he returns to Yu Country, it will be the day when he will make a comeback. It will be easy for him to bring someone back to Beijing, even if this person may have concealed his identity.
Wen Shen smiled when he heard the words, as long as he can return to Beijing again, there must be a day when he will come back again.
"Since it's been agreed, if you want to stay, you have to change your own rations." He said, walking aside and throwing the hoe into the bamboo basket in front of Mu Chengying, "I don't support idlers. The porridge you drink today will be deducted from your ration, and starting tomorrow, you will go to the mine with me."
Mu Chengying looked at the bottomless bowl of porridge, his face darkened, "You still have to be so clear about something so bad?"
It's no wonder that Mu Chengying's face was dark. When he was in Yu Kingdom, he was a favored prince. Even if he escaped from the disaster, the people below didn't let him go hungry. It was only because he was so hungry that he drank the hard-to-eat porridge just now.
Wen Jue just looked at him when he heard the words, "Do you know where this is?"
"This is a place of exile. There is nothing but mining for some food. The bowl of porridge you just drank was carefully saved by me. From tomorrow onwards, you will eat bean cakes with me."
Mu Chengying: "..."
Although speechless, he also understands the reason why people have to bow their heads under the eaves. It's not that they haven't suffered, but no one can order him like that.
Passing the empty bowl in his hand angrily, "I'm hungry, here's a bowl."
Wen Shen: "......"
Seeing that he didn't move, Mu Chengying said again: "I'll have the energy to work tomorrow after I'm full."
When the two of them finally filled their stomachs, it was completely dark outside. Wen Shen did not go to mine today, and both of them ate the brown rice saved during these days. Seeing that a lot of rice jars were missing, Wen Shen secretly thought to himself Decided to take an extra bamboo basket tomorrow.
"You, sleep on the floor." Wen Shen ordered as a matter of course.
Mu Chengying seemed a little unbelievable, "You let me sleep on the floor?" Although this wooden bed is no different from the hard floor, but the wooden plank is a bed after all, when did he sleep on the floor again?
"This bed is so small, where will I sleep if you sleep?"
Seeing that no one was moving, Wen Shen said again: "Don't forget that you are begging me to keep you now. If you don't want to sleep on the floor, there are still some straws."
Wen Shen raised his chin to signal Mu Chengying to look at the pile of straw, "If you still can't get used to sleeping, I'll mine more ore tomorrow and come back with a wooden plank. Anyway, come down now."
Mu Chengying was anxious but helpless. Wen Jue was right. Now he is dependent on someone else, but it didn't prevent him from whipping this man hard in his heart. When he returns to Beijing in the future, he will definitely bring this man back. repay"!
The tall man got out of bed, went to the side, tidied up the straw, and lay down on it. He was really tired, and the days of chasing and killing made him exhausted.
And Wen Shen was lying on the bed that still had Mu Chengying's body temperature, a trace of heat came through his back, and it was a rare thing that he slept extraordinarily peacefully.
Early the next morning, the two went to the mine with bamboo baskets on their backs. Mu Chengying was not very proficient in mining at first, but with Wen Shen's help, he finally got used to it. Bamboo baskets are filled to the brim.
Wen Shen took him to the exchange point in Qinghe Town, and exchanged two baskets of stones for four bean cakes and two handfuls of brown rice, and exchanged the remaining one for some money.
In fact, Wen Shen didn't want to change it. Compared with bean cakes and brown rice, the money in exchange couldn't even afford two bean cakes. If Mu Chengying hadn't made a fuss about buying wooden boards, he wouldn't have planned to exchange such uneconomical things.
The two walked around the town, and finally chose a plank that looked okay, but it also took a lot of time.
So when the two were about to go back with the wooden board, several officials came to the door, and one of them held a portrait and looked at Wen Shen's face.
"Exiles, the rule that you are not allowed to enter the town except for exchange time is so difficult that you don't understand?"
Wen Shen frowned. In fact, the stipulated time limit has not been exceeded. These people in front of him are obviously looking for trouble.
"The stipulated time limit is within one hour from entering the town, and it has not yet reached the time limit of one hour."
The few officials looked at each other, and the one who took the lead laughed sinisterly, "I told you that your time limit is up, so you just obediently get out of Qinghe Town. Exiles are not welcome here."
"You!", Wen Shen was impatient, but his form was stronger than that of a person. Although he used to be a prince, he is just an ordinary person now.
He pulled Mu Chengying who was frowning at the side, and said in a blunt tone: "Let's leave now."
As he spoke, he dragged Mu Chengying forward, but the official didn't intend to let him go like this. He stretched out his hand and pulled Wen Shen staggeringly, and the wooden board in his hand fell to the ground.
The officer stomped on it fiercely, and split the wooden plank that had just been replaced into two, "What? We want to leave like this after contradicting you? There's no such thing as cheap."
Wen Shen looked at the board that had just been replaced just like that being trampled into pieces, and an unspeakable anger rushed over him. When had Wen Shen suffered such humiliation?Where did the little fish and shrimp come from and crawled on his head and splashed.
However, before Wen Shen could move, he saw the person next to him step forward and punch the official in the face.
"Mu Chengying!" Wen Shen was startled, but was soon overwhelmed by the confusion.
He didn't know how it ended in the end, he only knew that there were more and more officials, and they beat and kicked around them, and the tall man defended him to death.
By the time those officials had exhausted their anger and blasted people out of Qinghe Town, all the items they carried today had already disappeared in the chaos.
In the dark thatched hut, a wax lamp was trembling with flames.
The tall man was sitting beside the wooden bed, and Wen Shen was squatting in front of him, holding a wet cloth soaked in warm water in his hand and applying it to a bruise on the man's lower abdomen.
"Why are you so impulsive? Who do you think we are?"
The man was silent for a while, "Then let them bully you like this?"
"Otherwise?" Wen Shen said as he pressed his fingertips on the bruise, in exchange for a man's hissing sound, "This is the result."
Mu Chengying was silent again, Wen Shen thought he was still angry, but unexpectedly the man asked some individual questions. "Why were you exiled?"
Wen Shen paused while holding the handkerchief, "It's better that you don't know about this kind of problem."
The two of them were speechless again. Seeing that the bruises on Mu Chengying's waist and abdomen had faded, Wen Shen stood up and took off his clothes. He was also punched in the chest today. Ying is serious, but it will get better sooner after applying hot water.
He was so informal, but he didn't know that Mu Chengying who was sitting behind him was following him with wolf-like eyes. .bare. .body moves.
Mu Chengying liked men, which he discovered a long time ago, but Wen Shen didn't know that, in Wen Shen's view, men should like women, and he didn't understand Long Yang's goodness, so he didn't understand Mu Chengying. Ying did not shy away from it.
Putting down the handkerchief, Wen Shen went to the rice vat to scoop up the last bit of brown rice and put it in the pot.
"Today is a waste of time, tomorrow I have to go to the mine to dig rocks again, otherwise you and I will only be hungry."
Seeing that Mu Chengying didn't answer, he turned his head and looked over, meeting a pair of slightly aggressive gazes.
Wen Shen raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you looking at?"
Mu Chengying smiled evilly, "I didn't expect you to have such a good figure."
Wen Shen followed his gaze and looked down, and said indifferently: "Your attention is really strange. If you don't want to be hungry tomorrow, get up early and follow me to the mine."
He put a bowl of porridge in front of Mu Chengying, "This will also be deducted from your ration."
The tall man's eyes turned accordingly, and after a long time, he buried his head in a mouthful of porridge and said in a low voice, "Stingy."
It rained outside in the middle of the night. For this kind of thatched cottage, once it rains, the ground is very wet.
Mu Chengying sat up from the pile of straw, looked at the wooden bed, "Wen Shen, are you asleep?"
"What are you doing up in the middle of the night?"
"The ground is too wet to sleep in. I need a bed."
Wen Shen said angrily, "Could it be that you still want me to sleep on the floor?"
Mu Chengying smiled, "I'm not as cruel as you, just divide the bed in half."
"No, it's too crowded." Wen Shen refused without thinking.
Mu Chengying knew that he would say that, and his eyes were fixed on the snow-white arm exposed outside the quilt.
"I was injured today because of you. If I sleep in such a humid place, I will not be able to go to the mine with you if it gets cold tomorrow, and you will have to take care of me."
What Mu Chengying said was right, if he fell ill, it would not be affordable for the current Wen Shen.
After a long silence, he gave way in, revealing half of the space and said, "You are only allowed to sleep up tonight. If you can't get the money for the plank tomorrow, you can continue to sleep on the floor."
The tall man curled his lips into a smile in the dark, and got into Wen Shen's bed with a little bit of air-conditioning.
In the darkness, apart from the sound of raindrops outside the house, there is only the sound of each other's breathing, meat.stick. .Meat, the scorching hot feeling poured in from the side, bringing a crispy and numb feeling.
In this kind of weather and atmosphere, I would feel sorry for myself if I didn't do anything, so Mu Chengying followed his heart without any hesitation, turned over and put Wen Shen under him.
"What are you doing?" Wen Shen was a little annoyed.
"Of course it's what you should do at a time like this!"
In the darkness, only the sound of fierce fighting could be heard from the wooden bed, but as time passed, the sound of fighting changed completely, and the air lingered with a fishy-sweet smell and chaotic breathing... ....
The next day, Mu Chengying got up from the bed and saw that Wen Shen was still sleeping. He smiled and kissed the man on the cheek, and went to the mine with three backpacks.
When he came back with two handfuls of brown rice, four bean cakes and a board that was bigger than the original board, Wen Shen had finished washing and was sitting by the bed.
Seeing Mu Chengying walking in with something, he grabbed the thing on the side without thinking and threw it at it.
"roll!"
Mu Chengying dodged and dodged, put the things down, and said as a matter of course: "We made an agreement before, let me stay here during this time."
"I've changed my mind now, you can go."
Mu Chengying walked over in silence, and sat down next to Wen Shen. Almost at the same time, Wen Shen wanted to stand up and leave.
But the man grabbed him, "You are the second prince of Wen Dynasty."
Just such a sentence made Wen Shen stop abruptly. Qinghe Town posted his portrait, but did not explain his identity and what he committed. How did Mu Chengying know?
"You must be wondering how I know your identity? If you want to know, sit down now."
Wen Shen paused, then sat down.
"Would you change your mind if I said my identity could help you start over?"
When the words fell, Wen Shen suddenly turned to look at him, "What do you mean?"
"Not only can I help you return to Beijing, but I can also help you do things that others cannot, as long as you keep me now."
"What is your identity? The Mu family in the capital doesn't have such great ability, or is your name fake?"
The man played with Wen Shen's soft hands, "You don't need to know my real identity now, you just need to decide whether to take a gamble or not."
"If you win the bet, you can get the world, and if you lose, you have nothing to lose, right?" Mu Chengying bewitched, a hand was already on Wen Shen's frowning cheek.
After a while of silence, Wen Shen didn't push Mu Chengying away, the man smiled triumphantly, and led the man back, "Now, let's do something else."
From this day on, the straw in the thatched cottage was completely taken out by Mu Chengying, and the narrow wooden bed was also replaced with a size that could accommodate two people lying side by side.
During the day, Wen Shen and Mu Chengying went up the mountain to dig ore, but in the middle of the night, there were always some blushing voices coming from this small thatched cottage.
After just one year, this dilapidated thatched cottage finally welcomed several luxurious guests.
Wen Shen sat on the edge of the bed and watched Mu Chengying talk with these people coldly, during which some people turned their heads to look at him from time to time.
After the conversation was over, Mu Chengying sent the person out before he sat down by the bed and kissed Wen Shen's face, "What? It's so difficult that I did it too hard last night, and today I have such a cold face .”
Wen Shen pushed Mu Chengying's face away. He didn't know where the boredom came from, but he just said coldly, "When are you leaving?"
Mu Chengying was silent for a while before saying: "Tomorrow morning."
Wen Shen sneered, "It's fine to leave, but don't forget your promise."
Mu Chengying stretched out his arms to hug him, "What? Just let me go like this?"
"Otherwise? Only when you go back, can I have a chance to stand up, right?"
"Is this the only thing that's difficult between us?"
"Then what else do you want? Don't you think you can still mess up this year. Can you show your feelings?"
Mu Chengying's teeth itched a bit when he heard the words, and a word popped out between his teeth, "That's right."
He stood up, calmed down the throbbing and turned around, "I'm going to pack my things."
Wen Shen didn't speak, just kept looking at him coldly.
At night, there was another blushing and heartbeating sound from the thatched cottage, but this time, the sound was twice as loud, and it was late at night when it stopped.
Mu Chengying was lying on the wooden bed with Wen Shen in his arms, looking down, the young man had fallen asleep tiredly.
"Only when you are asleep, you will look so cute." He stroked Wen Shen's back with his hands, and the nostalgia in his heart could not be ignored, "Wait, I will definitely come back to pick you up."
Putting a last kiss on Wen Shen's forehead, he turned over and got off the bed and left the hut with the things he had prepared.
There was someone waiting outside with a horse, and seeing Mu Chengying coming out, he said respectfully, "Your Highness."
"Let's go!", the man just dropped one word and got on the horse, and finally looked back at the thatched cottage, put away those thoughts and rode away.
In the thatched hut, the sleepy young man was wearing a shirt and sitting on the bed at this moment. His expression was always indifferent, but there was a reluctance in his eyes that could not be ignored.
Two years later, Yu Chengying, the prince of the Yu Kingdom, fought his way out among the princes and became the emperor of the Yu Kingdom in one fell swoop. He just took the throne and washed the court with blood. All of a sudden, a bloody storm erupted in Yu Country.
In the same year, Yu Chengying changed the name of the country to Mu. So far, Yu's century-old rule has completely withdrawn from history, and Mu has come to the fore.
After the founding of Mu Kingdom, the new emperor did two major things. One of them was to send the princess to the Wen Dynasty to make peace with Prince Wen Qian, in exchange for the stability of the family and country for a hundred years. This move was praised by the people.
Second, King Mu is going to marry the queen of Mu, and this queen is not a noble daughter of any family, but a man brought back from the wilderness.
Speaking of this male queen, although no one has seen her real face, there are many messages.
Some people say that the male queen's appearance is like a fairy, which can confuse people's hearts like a banished fairy.
It is also said that the male queen is the reincarnation of a goblin, and she came to find King Mu to repay the kindness of her previous life.
But no matter what the rumors say, what remains unchanged is that everyone knows that the male queen's surname is Wen. As for what is Wen?That is not important, what is important is that these two people will go on happily for a long time in the future......
