Sheng Shi Merciful Light

Mu Ruosong accompanied Mu Ci and fell asleep unknowingly. When he woke up, he found that Mu Ci was still sleeping. After looking at his relaxed sleeping face for a while, his heart was full of love, but the kiss on Mu Ci's forehead was as light as a kiss. Feather, for fear of waking him up.

Mu Ruosong quietly got up to tidy up a little, tucked Mu Ci's quilt up, and went to Yinghua Courtyard to visit his grandfather.

He felt uncomfortable seeing his grandfather weak and old, but he didn't know what to do.

Time and time again, he experienced the powerlessness of being small and weak. When the crisis came, he could not help his family or protect his lover.And... if he follows Mu Ci, dare not do anything, and keeps relying on doing some internal affairs, I'm afraid... he will cut off all the roads of strength.

He didn't ignore the hesitant expressions of his uncle and aunt, knowing what they were concerned about.

Not to mention others, he himself was also very concerned about where his soldier talisman fell, but he never knew how to ask.

Whether he is Mu Ci's attendant, or his lover, he can't ask.

He has been avoiding, but the reality is—both ends are pulling his heart.For the first time, he was not in a hurry to go back to guard Mu Ci, so he used an excuse to go to the Chu Palace, which was being renovated, to check the progress of the reconstruction of the hot spring pool, so that Mu Ci could soak in the hot spring as soon as possible.

The Chu Palace is very efficient, and has already begun to select veterans and imperial guards to replace the manpower.

An Yuan put on the cleanest clothes, tidied himself up, and went to the designated place to submit a letter of recommendation and sign up.

Afterwards... It was a completely incomprehensible selection method: people were required to know how to write, and An Yuan knew how to read, otherwise he would not be qualified to be selected as Chaoyang's "Four Ans"; physical fitness was also required, It is also understandable. Although An Yuan is disabled, he never forgets to practice, and walks around the streets every day, passing the test with ease.

There is also an interview to answer various questions, such as "If Your Highness forgets to bring the token and wants to enter and exit the palace, what should you do as the guard?"

This kind of topic is a little tricky.

An Yuan didn't know how others answered, so he said, "Seeing the token to enter is a rule, and His Highness has to abide by it." Principles lie, and he can't do it.

Back then, he had the same bad temper that could not be changed. He had just left Chaoyang and joined the Sixth Army of the Guards, but he offended the Shangguan and sent him to do the most dangerous mission.

Anyuan has been here for so many years, and he is not surprised by favor or humiliation. He just feels that he has let down the trust of his good brother and left sadly...

Just happened to meet Mu Ruosong who was worried.

Mu Ruosong knew An Yuan, so he greeted him a few times, and when he learned that he was coming for the selection, he said a few words of encouragement: "Uncle Yuan, you can't find any mistakes in your answer, so relax."

Mu Ruosong thinks he understands Mu Ci, as long as he is reasonable, even if he conflicts with Mu Ci, he will not blame him.

Mu Ruosong watched An Yuanshen leave with one kick and one shallow kick, knowing that because of his disability, his future would also be ruined.Mu Ruosong was suddenly impulsive, and ran over to grab An Yuan, hesitantly asked, "Uncle Yuan, do you... regret it?"

"Ok?"

"For the bottom line in your heart, you..." Mu Ruosong couldn't help but glance at his injured leg...

Anyuan was stunned, and didn't feel offended, but just smiled generously: "To be honest, it's not that I haven't regretted it, but I just regret that I didn't use more tactful means. However, if I went back in time, I knew it would be like this, and I would still do it." The same thing, because everyone should have their own bottom line...I did nothing wrong."

These words touched Mu Ruosong a lot, and gradually showed determination in his eyes.

When Mu Ruosong returned to Mu Ci, Mu Ci had already woken up and was leaning on the bedside to read the documents.Le Shu was sorting out the files.Since it was dinner time, the light was not very good, so a few candles had already been lit.

Mu Ci glanced at Mu Ruosong and reached out to him.

Mu Ruosong approached, held Mu Ci's hand and asked, "Have you had dinner yet?"

"No appetite." Mu Ci was still sleepy, and didn't ask where Mu Ruosong had gone.

"Eat a little bit." Mu Ruosong said, and Le Shu arranged a dinner, and Mu Ruosong coaxed Mu Ci to eat some.

After eating, Mu Ci fell asleep again, and yawned, only half of his mind remained clear: "Ziren, have you figured it out? Want to help me lead the army?"

Mu Ruosong: "..." Even if he is seriously ill, his sweetheart is also sensitive enough to perceive his changes.

"Make a decision, I will respect it." Mu Ci said.

Le Shu backed out and closed the door behind him.

Mu Ruosong took Mu Ci to lie on the bed, and hugged her in his arms: "Before I was too negative, thinking that I would avoid it, and I would be able to take care of myself if I didn't touch each other, but it's not the case. Not only did I live up to the expectations of my family and your value , it’s not a good thing for me.”

"En." Mu Ci praised, "Your thinking is much more mature."

Mu Ruosong was praised and felt happy: "So, I want to persist and do what I think is right, no matter what others think of me."

"It should be like this." Mu Ci said softly, rubbing the stubble on Mu Ruosong's chin with his forehead.

Mu Ruosong didn't want to hurt Mu Ci, subconsciously dodged for a while, kissed Mu Ci's forehead lightly...then kissed again, and fell into a silent daze.

He was hesitating whether he should ask about the six-armed soldier talisman of the Imperial Army. After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't avoid it, so he said, "If you lack it, the Sixth Imperial Army's soldier talisman is not in your hand, right?"

"Well, the soldier talisman is not in my hands, but I can decide who will have the soldier talisman in the end."

Mu Ruosong's breath stagnates...

"What do you think is the right thing to do?" Mu Ci threw the question to Mu Ruosong.

Mu Ruosong: "..." What should he say?

Mu Ci opened her eyes, stared at Mu Ruosong intently, and smiled slyly and vividly: "How about being my betrothal gift for you?"

Mu Ruosong was dazed by the smile, and it took him at least a few minutes to realize what Mu Ci said, his whole body turned red from "teng", turned his face away in embarrassment, and whispered: "What nonsense?"

Mu Ci smiled like a sneaky cat: "No, it's fine as my dowry." He thought about it seriously, then nodded, "Although it's a bit troublesome..."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Mu Ruosong interrupted.

He didn't even dare to think about "marrying" Mu Ci home.Not to mention whether the two men can get married, even if he has no property and relies on his family for everything, what benefits can Mu Ci, the King of Chu, benefit?

I'm afraid that I can't even protect Mu Ci, it's just causing trouble.

If I "married" to Chu Palace, it would feel like I was spoiling my feelings for the military talisman... Oh, what's the mess?

Mu Ruosong's mind was in a mess, but he knew Mu Ci's seriousness.

Mu Ruosong's voice was a little trembling: "Could it be that you are holding the military talisman because you want to negotiate terms with my family—because of me?"

But if this is the case, my grandfather doesn't know whether he will choose the 10,000+ soldier talisman or his eldest grandson. I'm afraid that the two choices will kill him again.

Mu Ruosong didn't dare to think about his grandfather's reaction, his legs felt weak, and he didn't want to blackmail his grandfather.

"Ziren, since you want to insist on what you think is right, what are you insisting on?" Mu Ci asked again.

Mu Ci loves a person, never trying to make his lover into the perfection in his mind, but let his lover be the best of himself.

Mu Ruosong could feel Mu Ci's respectful love, he hooked Mu Ci's back of the neck, pulled him for a kiss, didn't know how to express his feelings, hugged humanity hard: "I don't want to coerce, I also know you are disdainful It's against your nature to do things like blackmail and calculation."

"Indeed, it's not necessary." It's not that Mu Ci doesn't know how to use scheming methods, but he doesn't want to lower his character to use poisonous assassination, blackmail and other dark methods, which are too simple and rude without technical content.

"So... I think... um..." Mu Ruosong gritted his teeth and said, "If it doesn't hinder you, return the soldier talisman to my grandfather, okay? Without the soldier talisman in my house, it will be dangerous after all." He didn't want to Let the loved ones in the family suffer the slightest harm.

Mu Ci fixedly looked at Mu Ruosong: "Have you figured it out?"

Mu Ruosong nodded: "Ruo Que, I know you don't like plots and schemes, and you have never done anything to offend your conscience. I don't want you to give up your persistence for me. I also don't want the people I love to plot against my family. Family." Mu Ruosong thought for a while and said, "If we are determined, we can overcome no matter how difficult it is. I believe in you, and please believe in me."

Mu Ci sighed: "I have always believed in our relationship, but you are still young, and you don't know that there are many things in this world. You can't just follow your heart with a firm and deep relationship."

Mu Ruosong didn't realize the danger of Mu Ci's words of experience, so he said sonorously with more firmness: "I believe that gold and stone can be separated with sincerity."

"Well, let's all work hard. Actually..." Mu Ci looked at him with a smile, "I planned to return the soldier talisman early in the morning."

"Ah?" Mu Ruosong didn't understand.

"Ziren, listen!" Mu Ci said, "No matter what the result is, it's not a matter of you persuading me to return the soldier talisman today, so don't regret your persistence today."

Mu Ruosong was stunned.

"Besides, I don't want the soldier talisman of the Sixth Army of the Imperial Army, because I can't control the two forces defending the capital. Therefore, it is better for the Sixth Imperial Army to return to the hands of King Ding than to be in the hands of others. At least he will not have Too much selfishness is beneficial to the country and the people, and it is beneficial to me."

Mu Ruosong thought for a while, and this is indeed Mu Ci's way of thinking - the big picture.

"I will not stand on the opposite side of King Ding. From the perspective of the overall situation and overall goals, our goals are the same. We all hope that this country will be more secure, stable and better. Therefore, we will not conflict...at least in the There will be no official affairs." Mu Ci reluctantly kissed Mu Ruosong, "Only private matters, only your matter, we will have conflicts."

Mu Ruosong blushed again: "You..."

"So get stronger as soon as possible, at least don't be too passive, you know?" Mu Ci said, closing her eyes and falling into a deep sleep.

Mu Ruosong's expression gradually became firmer, revealing more seriousness.

He understands what he insists on the most in his heart...

——If I lack it, I want to become stronger.

Not only to gain more voice, not only to protect the family, not only to be with you...

What's more... When the crisis comes, I can stand in front of you and really put up an iron wall to protect you and prevent you from any further harm.

Keep you safe!

It is the only bottom line I stick to in my heart.

Compared with this persistence, I don't care so much about everything else.

even……

Even in the end, we...
