Sheng Shi Merciful Light

After the morning exercise, Chaoyang took his son to stay for breakfast, and Wang Ziguang was already getting along with his cousins ​​at home.Chaoyan felt relieved when she saw the children playing and fighting.

Chaoyang took great pains to go back to live in the Enlightenment Garden because Wang Ziguang had no brothers, so forget about those concubines.The brothers grew up fighting and fighting since they were young, and they have a good relationship, so they will have a helper in the future; also to avoid raising their sons coquettishly, the palace never coddles boys, they always beat them down.Besides, there are more brothers, and there is more competition, so as not to raise a frog in the well, and someone will take the blame if there is a disaster.

The concubine Yang took care of Chaoyang and Wang Ziguang in every way, and everything was done properly.She is a young lady from the Hou family in Weiyuan, Northwest China. She is as generous and reasonable as her aunt, Empress Xian Yang, and she is the smartest person.And when Chaoyang got married, the dowry was generous, so she wouldn't worry about the things at home anymore, it didn't matter much.Chaoyang is favored and has a better relationship with her husband, which is a great help.

She is stupid to deliberately offend this sister-in-law.

……

After the meal, Chaoyang asked someone to send his son to the Wangfu's Family Learning Institute, and handed the sign to enter the palace, but he was only allowed to enter the palace in the early morning time or in the afternoon.You can't disturb Mu Ci when she is "in class", because she has to "read the playbook" in order to be serious in class, she is quite busy.

Chaoyang knew that Mu Ci was bullied and suffered by the prince. Although she didn't know the specific situation, and she didn't think about it at all, she knew that her father was "not saving her life". If you don't enter the palace for a year, you have to take responsibility for it, so the closer you get to the Chonghua Palace, the more timid you feel.

The secret investigation on Anqing has ended, but fortunately, it has not affected anything, and he is still on duty outside the Chonghua Palace.Because Chaoyang had already been approved, there was no such thing as "overthrowing Chuanggong" again.Chaoyang left Ping Lan outside, and went in to see Mu Ci alone... No matter how guilty he was, he still had to go see him.

An Qing was not a weak hand, he had sensed that Ye Xingwei was monitoring him more, and he watched Chao Yang's back entering Chonghua Palace, hiding a trace of uneasiness in his eyes.

……

Because it was still early in the dynasty, Emperor Tianshou and Prime Minister Wang had not come over, Mu Ci's meditation and morning exercise were over, and she was reclining on the soft couch in the bedroom alone, reading a book, flipping through it very quickly.He Shun waited by his side, carrying a tray with snacks, but Mu Ci had no time to eat.

Hearing the voice transmission, Mu Ci raised her head to look at Chaoyang, the smile that had gathered on the corner of her lips just now dissipated immediately after seeing Chaoyang's expression, and asked doubtfully, "Sister, what happened?"

"Huh?" Chaoyang was a little taken aback, "What...what's the matter?" She felt ashamed, forced a smile and said, "It's okay, I'm fine.

"Sister, don't laugh if you don't want to. If you don't know how to hide it, don't hide it in front of me. Why is there so much sadness in your eyes?" Mu Ci asked.

"Ah? Is there?" Chaoyang touched his face, which was equivalent to acquiescing.She had already thought about it, she wanted to pretend she didn't know anything, why bother to bring up the past, and she couldn't change it, it was just to make Ah Ci sad again.Now I can only make up silently, treat him better, better...

But as soon as they met each other, Mu Ci exposed him. Faced with such a caring question, Chaoyang's eyes became hot uncontrollably...

Mu Ci sighed, put down the book, and got up carefully while supporting the soft couch.

Chaoyang rushed over to support Mu Ci, frowned: "I looked fine last time, why are you in poor health again?" She still needs someone to help her up.

Mu Ci was not seriously injured by Emperor Tianshou, he was just afraid that he would be rude when he got up suddenly, and said: "It's okay, I feel dizzy when I get up." This is also true, this body's blood is too poor.

Chaoyang supported Mu Ci, who was light and weightless, touched a handful of bones on his body, and shed tears...

Mu Ci sighed again. Although he was thin, he was a man after all. He was a little taller than Chaoyang. He held Chaoyang in his arms and patted her on the back: "Sister, although I don't want to see your tears, but If you feel better crying, then cry it out."

Chaoyang couldn't bear it any longer, hugged Mu Ci and burst into tears, murmuring all the time: "I'm sorry...I'm sorry...I'm sorry..." The more I cried, the more I wanted to cry. Cry out all the grievances and sorrows accumulated in my body for so many years, so much guilt and sadness.

I'm really useless, I'm a loser, I hurt my elder brother, I can't raise my son well, I know you are alone in the cold palace, but I have ignored you for several years and made you suffer, I don't deserve to be treated so tenderly by you.

sorry……

Chaoyang cried for a long time before slowly stopping, Mu Ci asked Heshun to fetch cold water, twisted a cotton towel and applied it to Chaoyang's eyes herself.Chaoyang grabbed Mu Ci's cool hand and held it in his palm, staring at him sadly with red and swollen eyes.

With the other hand, Mu Ci helped Chaoyang push a stray strand of hair behind her ear, and asked calmly, "How much do you know about my being in the cold palace?"

Chaoyang did not speak, and began to cry again.

"Your father told you?"

"You don't need him to tell me, I can guess it." Chaoyang responded in a low voice, Mu Ci came out of the cold palace with scars all over her body, and the prince was imprisoned at the same time... Even if her father didn't say it, she could think of it.

"It's all over, don't cry! It's the prince's fault, not yours!" Mu Ci persuaded, a little tentatively.

Chaoyang was indignant: "That Hudan, who looks honest and honest, is really too bad. You are so cute, how could he have the heart to bully you and hurt you? It's good that you didn't provoke him..."

Mu Ci breathed a sigh of relief.Looking at Chaoyang's righteous indignation, he guessed that Wang hadn't told her the whole truth. He didn't care about face, but there was no need to stain Chaoyang's ears with such dirty things, and he didn't like being treated with pity because of such things. look at.

Mu Ci didn't say anything more, just gently wiped Chaoyang's tears.

It took Chaoyang a while to control his emotions, and he said embarrassedly, "I'm really useless, but I need you to comfort me."

"Do you feel better?"

"Yeah." Chaoyang responded, in fact, it's not easy, but I don't want to call Ah Ci to worry about her.

Mu Ci let Heshun go out before asking, "I was just hurt a little, why are you more sad than me?"

"I didn't know before, my father didn't tell me." Chaoyang made an excuse, and didn't dare to say that her father "knows" that Mu Ci is suffering in the cold palace but "doesn't save her". But she is obviously not a master at hiding emotions. , at least no one can hide their thoughts in front of Mu Ci.

Mu Ci combined the information he collected from various parties, and he figured it out as soon as he speculated.Xindao: King Ding's power and ability can be raised to a higher level. He obviously knows the situation in the palace like the palm of his hand, and he also has clever means, so that Chaoyang cannot enter the palace for several years.I don't know what role he played in the Luoyang king's denunciation of the prince?

Mu Ci remained calm and persuaded: "The emperor issued a gag order about my injury. It is right for your father not to tell you. Don't blame him."

Chaoyang angrily said, "How can he look at you..."

Mu Ci quickly interrupted her, a little dumbfounded: "Okay, it's meaningless to say anything now, and you can't change the past. Besides, it's not good if your father leaks secrets and the emperor knows." This is already a clear indication.

"Should, nothing will happen... right?" Chaoyang's mood stabilized, and his IQ went online. If the emperor found out that his father knew many things three years ago, he would definitely be suspicious.She was a little apprehensive, looked around and saw that there was no one in the bedroom, she was relieved, and said to herself: Fortunately, I didn't say much.She also felt that there shouldn't be any major problems based on the affection between her father and the emperor.

"Don't tell anyone what you can't say if you promise, and don't do what you shouldn't do regardless of whether there is supervision or not. Don't think that small things are okay. Little things that accumulate dissatisfaction will eventually destroy mutual trust. Is it? Sister, you are too emotional, sometimes this is an advantage, but this is in the palace... It is better for you to come less often." Mu Ci said softly.

"No, I will never leave you here alone again."

"Stupid, can you stay in the palace every day? You also have your own things to do, and you have a son who is in poor health to take care of. Don't worry, I am such an old man, I will arrange my own life Yes, there is no time to mourn for Qiu."

"Ah Ci, how...how could you be so..." Chaoyang didn't know how to describe it, Mu Ci was too open-minded and calm, as if nothing had happened.

"Calm?" Mu Ci asked.

"Ah Ci..."

Mu Ci was indeed very calm, and asked: "Do you think that I am full of anger, gloomy and cruel, and hate everyone for betraying me, and dragging everyone in to be buried with me is the only way to calm down the resentment... Is this a normal reaction?"

Chaoyang: "But..." But it shouldn't be so calm, aren't you angry?

Mu Ci said calmly: "There is nothing wrong with being calm. I never punish myself with other people's mistakes. I will never get out of it, and I will be trapped in hatred in the end. What happened has already happened, and what happened in the past will eventually pass away." , there is no need to bury the future with you." Mu Ci twisted another towel, and put Chaoyang's eyes on it, "So, sister, don't use other people's mistakes to punish yourself, okay?"

"I'm the one who's sorry for you. I haven't cared about you for so many years... Ah Ci, don't you blame me?" You blamed me, and I felt a little better.

Mu Ci searched her memory before sighing and shaking her head: "He doesn't blame you..."

"what?"

"I really don't blame you. Although sometimes...I look forward to your appearance, but it's not for help. That will drag you into a dangerous situation. It's not...what I want to see. I just want to hear your voice and feel A little warmth from the world, a little bit of support in the cold hell. Although you still didn’t show up until the end, and there was a little disappointment, but... I don’t blame you, I never resent you. Because you don’t have this responsibility What are you obligated to do? You came here out of love, and if you don’t come, you should, so...you didn’t hurt anyone, so you can’t be said to have let you down.”

The boy you really love knows it in his heart, so he never blamed you. What position do I have to blame you?

"Ah Ci..." Chaoyang felt even more ashamed. She stared blankly at such a calm, open-minded, gentle and tolerant Mu Ci, and didn't even know the tears were falling from her eyes.

Mu Ci gently wiped away the crystal tears, and smiled softly at Chaoyang: "Your feelings for me are extremely precious, so I shouldn't turn your feelings into weapons to resent you and stab your flesh and blood." Heart."

Chaoyang's heart softened in an instant, revealing the deepest, softest, bright red pointy flesh, and it hurts to poke it lightly... Such a lovely and clear boy with a crystal heart, just wants to let people put it in his heart. Love on the tip of my heart, how could anyone be willing to hurt him?

Mu Ci got up and poured a glass of warm water, and handed it to Chaoyang: "Drink some water, women are really made of water, and if you keep crying, your eyes won't be able to get rid of the swelling. People think I'm bullying you."

Seeing Mu Ci's nonchalant jokes on Chaoyang's face, he felt that it would not be good for him to pester her any longer and bring up sad things, and wanted Mu Ci to comfort her instead.

So Chaoyang tried her best to hold back her tears, looked left and right, and whispered to Mu Ci: "Ah Ci, don't worry, you will be fine, too..." She originally wanted to talk about her own family, and many people hoped that the prince would fall , but was interrupted by Mu Ci waving his hand.

Mu Ci said helplessly: "Sister, this is the palace." It's not your home.

"Ah Ci..."

Mu Ci stretched out her finger and put it on her lips, "Shh..."

Chaoyang understood, bit her lower lip, and stopped if she wanted to speak.

Mu Ci laughed: "Sister, what I want, I can get it by myself. I am a big man, how can I ask you to spread your wings to protect me?"

"Ah Ci..." But, you are so weak... I am my sister, and I want to protect you.

It has to be said that Mu Ci's beautiful, soft and fragile appearance can always arouse the desire for protection deep in people's hearts.

"I like you, and I hope you will accompany you in the palace, but I don't want to involve you." Mu Ci decided to make things clear, "You should be clear, the emperor has been pampering you, for whose sake is it?"

Chaoyang: "..."

"Any affection has a limit, and royal affection is easier to learn. You enjoy your father's level of love and support, but you are so self-willed that everyone who loves you will take risks. Is it really okay?"

Chaoyang was speechless.

"What comes with deep love should not be capriciousness, but responsibility." Mu Ci said.

Chaoyang was speechless...

"I have received your love and know your heart. It is enough. When you come to see me in the palace, you can only be a very innocent elder sister to visit my younger brother. It is not the daughter of King Ding, Princess Chaoyang, who comes to visit King Changle. I understand. ?”

So clear, Chaoyang is not stupid, how can he not understand?I can only nod.

Mu Ci showed a smile that made people feel like a spring breeze: "Actually, if my sister can go to the palace to visit my brother all the time, it will be considered as saying nothing or doing nothing. This is an attitude in itself, right?"

If Chaoyang can keep entering the palace, it means that the situation is beneficial to him, otherwise King Ding will interfere with his daughter's actions, that's why Mu Ci said this.

Chaoyang immediately understood, couldn't help stretching out his hand to pinch Mu Ci's monster-like pretty face, and confessed his determination in a low voice with a smile: "I understand, so... I will try my best to keep coming to see you." Ci's hand wrote the word "Anqing" in his palm.

Mu Ci was a frequent walker and knew An Qing, so she was helpless—could this style of acting secretly be the tradition of the Mu family.

Mu Ci didn't wait for Chaoyang to finish writing, she clenched her palm tightly, and said, "Sister, there's no need. The imperial guards outside belong to the emperor's personal armed forces, and they can only have the position of 'loyalty to the emperor'. They don't belong to You and I, we have no right to demand their loyalty. Otherwise, it is a very dangerous thing for everyone."

Chaoyang: "..." This kind of feeling of wanting to help a little, but being rejected and unable to do anything, is very bad.

Worst of all... she couldn't find words to refute.

Mu Ci looked at Chaoyang with a smile, and was tolerant like an elder: "Of course, we don't need to change their position of being loyal to the emperor, because I never have any thoughts of harming the emperor's interests. Based on my trust in you, Anqing can get my trust."

Chaoyang: "..."

Why did she feel that this little and tender boy in front of her seemed to be a bit more like an elder than her father?It feels like the second prisoner who tolerates her.

"Okay, Xiao Shun..." Mu Ci summoned his servant, "Go and ask who is An Qing, please come into my room."

Heshun went to invite someone, Anqing was a little surprised when he heard the call from King Changle, but it was expected, and the result...but still unexpected.

He was surprised at first because King Changle never allowed anyone to enter his room, and suddenly asked him to go in. This attitude of trust surprised him.But when he thought that his old master, Chaoyang, was inside, he felt that it was expected.

When Chaoyang came in just now, he was worried that Chaoyang would "sell" him, and sure enough...

But...shouldn't this kind of thing be done secretly, to show loyalty in private, to be willing to push...or something like that?

Unexpectedly, he was not afraid of being discovered, and Guangming was yelling at him to go in...

What a surprise and a surprise.

Mu Ci has a high IQ, and has already recognized every guard patrolling outside Hehuan Hall, and she is even more familiar with this officer.Of course, he was not interested in inquiring about the names of these people, nor did he try to get close.Only now did he know that this ordinary-looking, somewhat stern-looking guard chief was called An Qing.

At this point, Chaoyang can only explain openly: "His name is Anqing, and his name is Hezhi. He is my old affiliation when I was young. I know him well. He is a very good person and worthy of trust."

Anqing saluted solemnly.

Mu Ci nodded to An Qing: "Hello, please don't worry. I know you are the emperor's subordinate. If I want to send you, I will get the emperor's approval first, and I will not order you to do anything in private. It's just that sister Chaoyang said you are very good, she Trust you, and I will trust you too."

An Qing: "..." He was really speechless to this straightforward King Changle, and it took him a long time to say, "Humble job...Thank you for your trust, Your Highness."

"Well, you should go out on duty." Mu Ci didn't say much, and sent someone out.

An Qing stepped back respectfully... Although he was somewhat surprised by His Royal Highness Changle's frank behavior, to be honest, he was relieved.He was originally an old subordinate of the Chaoyang Princess, and was assigned to the Yulin Army by King Ding. Over the years, King Ding has never asked him to do anything... A real power master will not be too short-sighted, and will not really need to do anything secretly, just need a little Just a little bit of inclination.

This is like a time bomb, if it is discovered, it will be over!For example, he was very worried just now, worried that Chaoyang would bring his old kindness and ask him to change his position and be loyal to King Changle or something.

Are you kidding me?Princess, do you know how many dark threads are monitoring Changle King's every move?

He can't agree, and he can't agree, it's very embarrassing.

Unexpectedly, the king of Changle was upright and aboveboard, making a trouble invisible, and directly stated that he would not shake his loyalty to the emperor, but would trust him.

In an instant, An Qing felt an urge to prostrate himself under the cloth shoes of King Changle. Compared to King Ding, this one is simply the ultimate master of power manipulation. It is impossible to describe my admiration in words.

Chaoyang was amazed again!How did this boy grow up?In the environment of the Lenggong, after being bullied, he grew up to act in an upright manner and with a clean heart like today?

She felt that the three views that had been broken all over the place today needed to go back and make up again. Chaoyang left from Chonghua Palace before Emperor Tianshou came - because she had a grudge against Emperor Tianshou in her heart, and she didn't want to see her imperial uncle.

Standing at the window of the bedroom, Mu Ci saw Chaoyang turn his head and smiled brightly at him, the sadness in his eyes turned into deep emotion and settled into his heart.

elder sister,

And brother.

My sister came to visit my brother. Many things are simple, why make it so complicated?

……

King Ding claimed that he was sick and did not go to court, so he shook his face to Emperor Tianshou. Emperor Tianshou was so angry that he recruited Mou Yu to lose his temper, and then he heard Mou Yu say: "Everything is done, the eldest grandson of King Ding will definitely meet you." Enter the palace." Afterwards, a little sunshine appeared on his face.Recruit someone to ask what happened to Kuro.

Responsible for secret protection... of course protection!Ye Xingwei told the story of what happened in Hehuan Temple early in the morning, in a tone of admiration.

The Emperor Tianshou was speechless, and he asked in confirmation, "Jiulang really said that?"

That night Xingwei said: "Your Highness said that the Imperial Forest Army is loyal to Your Majesty, and he has no right and no need to change the loyalty of the Imperial Forest Army. He just called An Qing into the room and said that because he trusts the Princess, he trusts An Qing, but he will not go beyond you. Tell An Qing to do anything in private."

Emperor Tianshou chewed Xiao Jiulang's words several times, thought for a while, smiled, shook his head for a while, and laughed suddenly, but two suspicious glints appeared in the corners of his eyes...

Li Kang, who waited on the sidelines but avoided suspicion and didn't come forward to listen, looked at the appearance of the emperor, and thought: Are you sick again?

Emperor Tianshou was not ill, he waved to Li Kang, and the corner of his mouth was full of the message "I am very proud, I am very proud", and Ye Xingwei repeated it, asking: "Pu Ren, what do you think of Jiulang's actions? "

Rao Li Kang has never seen this kind of god-man who never plays cards according to the rules, but always makes people look up to him. After thinking about it, he said: "If it is not loyal, it is treachery; if it is not great, it is evil." Great evil."

If this kind of person is really loyal, it is the blessing of everyone. If he is evil by nature, it means that he hides deeper than others. He looks upright and makes people let go of his guard, so the lethality is even greater.

Emperor Tianshou asked, "What do you think Jiulang is?"

Li Kang wanted to say it was the former, and he also hoped that King Changle was the former, but he couldn't guarantee it, so he said: "Foolish ministers dare not speculate."

The Emperor Tianshou slapped his legs and laughed loudly, releasing all the depression in his chest, feeling comfortable all over.

"Pu Ren, do you know? I was fortunate enough in my life to meet such a person who was 'with a selfless heart and doing righteous deeds' decades ago. It's just a pity that at the time... I didn't want to believe him. Who Knowing that I am so lucky, I saw another..." Emperor Tianshou smiled very proudly, "I want to believe him."

"I also want to believe it." Li Kang was kind, showing his admiration.

Emperor Tianshou glanced at Li Kang, the light in his eyes was uncertain: "Pu Ren, do you...do you think there is such a thing as reincarnation?" Mu Ci looked at him horizontally and vertically, and he didn't look like a 16-year-old boy who grew up in the cold palace. More like a monster with rich experience and deep wisdom.

But if Mu Chun was reincarnated, his elder brother was as gentle as a spring breeze back then, but he didn't have Jiu Lang's sharp and explosive tongue.

Li Kang couldn't say anything, the emperor's words and deeds were an example, and he couldn't be misled by ghosts and ghosts.

Emperor Tianshou didn't want to answer, and said: "I believe in him, regardless of whether he is reincarnated, good or evil, loyal and traitorous, he is so smart, as long as he has been doing selfless, upright things, it will be everyone's blessing. Let's go , go to Chonghua Palace."

Li Kang chewed on the words of the emperor granted by heaven, did he think it was quite philosophical?
