ink blade

Mo Ren opened his eyes vaguely, he felt that he had slept for a long time, as if he had never slept so peacefully for so long.

The eyelids slowly opened and closed a few times, and the dull and dull mind slowly became clear.

He felt a soft touch under his body, how could he... lie on the bed?

"It can be regarded as waking up. I have been worrying Gu Gu for so many days. I really... have I slept enough?" A voice with a deep smile rang in my ears, which was deeply familiar.

Mo Ren instantly woke up.He turned around in a panic.A black and golden sleeve corner suddenly came into view, causing his face to turn pale.

It turned out to be... the Lord is here! ?

Such moments are often unresponsive, Mo Ren doesn't care about anything, and struggles to get up instinctively.Reluctantly, he didn't have any strength in his whole body, he almost fell off the bed, and the muffled sound of hitting the ground was painful to hear.

Mo Ren didn't care about the screams of pain from the wounds all over his body at all, but put his limp arms tremblingly on the ground, trying hard to kneel up.

He didn't die--

No, he had slept so presumptuously and impolitely by the side of the lord for an indescribable amount of time! !

This thought rushed into Mo Ren's mind like a flowing arrow, and he couldn't help but make his heart sink coldly.In the field of vision that gradually began to shake, he saw the owner of the black-gold robe stand up suddenly, perhaps because he was extremely angry...

Mo Ren's heart was even colder, and he wanted to kowtow to apologize, but the next moment, his trembling body finally exhausted his strength, lost his balance and slumped down.

It's so useless, it's really annoying waste.He cursed secretly in his heart, simply closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and waited for the pain of falling to the ground.

But the ink blade didn't wait.He heard the sound of the wind blowing through the wide sleeves, and then a pair of arms wrapped around him, and then he was pulled into a warm and firm embrace, hugging him tightly.

"Master..." Mo Ren looked up helplessly, but his pupils shrank suddenly.The face of Chu Yan, who had been treasured in the depths of his memory for a long time and belonged to the weak crown year, suddenly came into his eyes, and he froze as if struck by lightning.

"What are you doing! How dare you move around after being so injured!?"

Chu Yan over there was anxious and distressed, and even the ecstasy when he found out that the guard was awake was washed away.He never thought that Mo Ren would ruin his body like this after waking up.

Seeing that the wounds that had finally begun to heal in the past three days showed signs of being torn apart, Chu Yan only felt that these wounds had been added to his heart, and it was burning hot.

He hugged the ink blade with one hand, pulled off the brocade quilt on the bed with the other, wrapped the white body that was shivering with cold, and couldn't help but glared angrily.

"Subordinate...subordinate..."

Mo Ren looked at Chu Yan in disbelief, speechless.

According to Chu Yan's temperament, if a subordinate doesn't follow his wishes, he will be the lightest, and he will have to reprimand him to death no matter what.But he only had time to take a look at Mo Ren, and his heart suddenly hurt——

The guard huddled at the foot of the bed, his whole body was shaking, and his body was drenched in cold sweat.His upturned face was so dazed that it made people panic, and there was panic in his dark eyes.

"...Master." Mo Ren called out hoarsely, with obvious tremors.

"..." Chu Yan's cold tone could no longer be maintained.He put his hand into the quilt, walked around the wound clumsily and patted it gently, comforting him patiently, "...Okay, Ah Ren, don't move if you are injured. I should not punish you , lonely and confused. Never again, never again, okay?"

Mo Ren's lips moved, but no sound came out.He seemed to have forgotten the etiquette and rules in a rare way, and stared blankly at Chu Yan's bright eyebrows for a long time.

... Then she silently turned her head, her light-colored lips were slowly pursed, and her eyes lost focus.

He didn't seem to understand anything.

It seemed that he understood everything in an instant.

It turned out to be... It turned out to be... Rebirth for the first time...

Yes, he should have died.

The unbearable memories of the previous life are still in front of his eyes, each scene contains Chu Yan, and each scene makes him despair like falling into the abyss.

These memories were finally stilled in the torture of the traitor and the heavy snow, and the ink blade lost his mind.Those pale and thin hands gripped the bed sheet tightly until the veins bulged.

He just felt physically and mentally exhausted, and his brain seemed to be rusted.

Chu Yan's gaze never left the person in his arms, and naturally he didn't miss the fleeting look of grief between Mo Ren's brows.But he was puzzled, but he couldn't figure out why Mo Ren reacted like this.

His heart was empty, as if something he didn't know made him faintly uneasy.

Suddenly the door was knocked, interrupting Chu Yan's mood.A maid came in with a tray, which was prescribed by the medicine hall to nourish Moren's body.

There was also a small bowl on the tray, but Chu Yan thought that Mo Ren had been in a coma for many days and hadn't eaten, so he had ordered his servants to cook a light gruel, and brought it together at this time.

Chu Yan winked and asked the maidservant to put down the porridge and medicine and back away, then turned her head to Mo Ren and said: "I should be hungry after sleeping for so long, drink some porridge to warm up first, and then drink the medicine."

With that said, he helped Mo Ren onto the bed, and raised the pillow for people to lean on.The Lord of the Nine Layers Palace was used to being pampered and pampered, this kind of work of serving others should have been very awkward, but now he couldn't care about it at all.Chu Yan brought the porridge with his own hands and sat down beside the bed, "Come."

Mo Ren's mind was in a mess, and he didn't realize until now that the porridge was for himself.

Thinking back to the last time in the side hall in the previous life, let alone warm food, it is lucky to eat one or two bites a day, Mo Ren almost forgot what it feels like to eat warm food.

He was at a loss, and said in a daze: "Subordinate... Thank the Lord for the reward."

"It's just a bowl of porridge, what's there to thank you for?" Chu Yan didn't know this, and Mo Ren's confused expression at that moment made him feel novel, and he couldn't help but chuckled softly.

Mo Ren was speechless, only blaming himself for failing to quickly adapt to the fact of rebirth and being rude in front of the Lord.

But rebirth is rebirth, why is the Lord so gentle with him?

He glanced at Chu Yan's face again, secretly calculating the time.

... That's right, logically speaking, at this time, the master's heart should have been filled with Bai Hua long ago.As for him, it is naturally getting more and more annoying day by day.But he couldn't remember when the Lord had been so kind to him.

Mo Ren's trance thoughts were interrupted by the suddenly enlarged spoon in front of him.On the spur of the moment, Palace Master Chu picked up the bowl and spoon, scooped up a spoonful of porridge and handed it to Mo Ren's lips, "Ah Ren, open your mouth."

"The subordinates are terrified and dare not bother the Lord."

Mo Ren was so startled that he quickly reached for the bowl and spoon with his hands, but was dodged.

Chu Yan lost it for a while and regained it, as long as he looked at Mo Ren, he was overjoyed.Feeding people meals is actually a joy to do.He passed the spoon over again, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Be obedient, open your mouth."

"This……"

Mo Ren hesitated, he couldn't figure out why Yan's anomaly was.After such a long time, it is of course impossible for him to remember all the trivial things in detail, and he can only rely on...guess when he encounters this situation suddenly.

He has always been cold-faced and bored, presumably the Lord is not trying to tease himself.The only possibility he could think of was Bai Hua.

After all, he was thrown into the execution hall just because he offended Bai Hua, maybe the lord had gotten angry with Bai Hua in the past two days, so he deliberately treated him better, just to show his lover?

Taking care of himself without regard to the face of the Palace Master, presumably for the sake of being seen by the servants and reaching Bai Hua's ears...

...It must be so, there will never be other reasons.Mo Ren lowered his eyes and silently swallowed the bitterness in his heart. The master wants to play, so he should cooperate.

What's more, even if it's an act, this moment of tenderness is enough for him to recollect it carefully in the future - he will kill Bai Hua in this life, and it will be more unbearable in the future than in the previous life.He should be grateful to Shane.

His thoughts were cleared up in an instant, and when Mo Ren raised his head, he had restrained his emotions.He looked at the spoon that Chu Yan approached with a smile, with a hint of anticipation that he knew he shouldn't.

Even if it's fake, you might as well take it as a steal.Being honored as the Lord, being able to treat him with tender care up to this point is his advantage.

knock knock...

There was a sudden knock on the door, and Chu Yan paused.A guard respectfully reported: "My lord, Mr. Bai Hua is here to see you."

... The spoon containing the clear porridge rested on his lips, and Mo Ren sighed secretly in his heart, and moved his body back slightly.Now that Bai Hua had come over, he knew it was impossible.

Chu Yan frowned, "Why, forgot how Gu ordered? No matter who it is, I will never see you."

"But Mr. Bai Hua is determined...Young Master has already started a fight in front of the hall, and the younger ones don't dare to stop him..."

Chu Yan's face gradually darkened.After a moment of silence, there was a "jingle" when the spoon was thrown back into the bowl.

Mo Ren lowered his head.

Sure enough, what is not his will not be his after all.

It's me... It's an extravagance.

Chu Yan straightened his clothes and stood up, walked towards the door of the dormitory, turned his head before stepping out the door and said, "Remember to drink the medicine by yourself, and wait for Gu to come back."

Ink Blade responded in a low voice: "Yes."

The sound of Chu Yan's footsteps faded away.

Mo Ren watched the Lord go up and out of the bedroom door, and barely propped himself up.Enduring the discomfort in his body, he got out of bed barefoot and moved slowly.

He quietly stuck to the corner of the wall by the window, closing his eyes wearily.

There were a few crisp birdsong outside, as well as the intermittent voice of men talking.

"...Hua'er is really worried... just thinking about it...is fine, but he was turned away...Brother Chu, but what did Hua'er do wrong?"

"Hua'er, don't think too much about it...the matter of the ink blade...you can't do it...it's not easy to do if you have been punished..."

"Hua'er knows... as an outsider but... no wonder Guard Mo despises..."

"...It's just a useful subordinate...It's easy to fool...Just coax it as you like..."

In the bedroom, Mo Ren still closed his eyes quietly, as if he didn't hear anything.Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too sharp. He misses his past life when he lost his inner strength.

In fact, it's not very uncomfortable, after all, it has been expected for a long time... At least, the Lord said that he is useful, so he is still happy.

But why bother?Where do I need to be tricked and fooled.As long as Chu Yan gave an order, he could kneel down and sacrifice his life to the Lord.

Is it because what he did in his previous life was not good enough?After so many years, the master actually only regards him as an ordinary subordinate who still needs to spend a lot of energy to win over...

Mo Ren felt a pain in his heart.He knew that his temperament that he couldn't help but think too much was not suitable for being a good bodyguard to please his master.It's just that when it's about Chu Yan, he can't always be a thoughtless sword as requested by the master, let alone a pleasing dog.

Then, it is only reasonable to think that he was rejected by his master in the previous life.

In this life... Maybe after looking for an opportunity to kill Bai Hua, he should kill himself quickly, so as not to add to the troubles of the master.

Chu Yan and Bai Hua chatted while laughing, and he saw the two figures getting away from the window.

"..."

Mo Ren slowly let go of his strength, let out a breath, and leaned against the cold wall, his expression neither sad nor happy.

Suddenly, he bent his thin back, covered his lips with his right fist, and began to cough violently, until he couldn't breathe, and his pale cheeks turned an abnormal blush.

Dark red blood trickled out from between his fingers.

…Being out of breath and attacking the heart finally hurt the internal organs that were already damaged by the punishment.

Mo Ren's expression remained unchanged, and he took a towel to wipe off the blood on the ground.Thinking about the Lord's instruction, he went back to the bed and raised his hand to drink the medicine in one gulp.

The pungent bitter taste irritates the stomach that has not eaten for a long time, making it very uncomfortable.Mo Ren endured the nausea, and swallowed the whole medicine in one gulp with no expression on his face.

These are all high-quality medicinal materials and cannot be wasted because of him.

The author has something to say: Seeing that the sweetness is about to start, let me hurry up and send out some knives.Look at how beautiful this Ah Ren spits out blood——
