"It's here." Taki Wakaba took off the Tang clothes that covered the stones of the maternity house, and put them on again, "You go and inform, I don't want to show up, so I will wait for you in the car."

"Ok."

After Taki Wakaba returned to the car, he waited for the news of the delivery house pyroxene, and he came back after a while.

"They attach great importance to this matter, and they will be dispatched immediately. We shouldn't have to worry about it anymore. Here—this is a spell given by He Maoshi. Putting it on our body can eliminate the influence of monsters on us. Don't worry about not knowing the way. .” Ubuyashiki pyroxene handed her a spell.

"That's enough."

Ubuyashiki Huishi sat in the front of the car again and drove towards Taki Wakaha's residence.

"What does the monster look like?" Taki Ruoye suddenly asked.

"They look...evil and terrifying, but there are also beautiful human-like monsters, which make people feel more dangerous." Ubuyashiki Pyroxene paused, "But people gather With the power, there will be no little monsters to harass the places with more people. When monsters try to invade from the edge of Heianjing, it is our job."

"Ping'an capital is well protected by you, and everyone feels that it is safe here."

"This is also a dangerous job. You see, I haven't asked for a wife until now, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to come back one day." Although Miyashiki Kyoshi said so, his tone didn't look worried at all.

"Actually, the two are not contradictory."

"Okay, I admit it. I want to be the one who protects everyone, and that's what a man should do."

"A person who shines like a star?"

"No." Ubuyashiki pyroxene clearly denied, "Even if no one knows me, I will do this."

"It can be said to be quite a noble idea."

"This is just an ideal. There are also people whose ideals are very different from reality. They are so ambitious, but they are actually ideals that are completely out of touch with me. At least... I will not let myself become that kind of person." Yashiki Huishi seemed to remember something, and his tone became low.

"At least you have such an ideal. I think no matter who you are when you were young, you would have thought that you would become a big shot who turned your hands into clouds and your hands into rain, and would decide life and death in a word, but only when you grow up will you discover such arrogance. It's better to have less."

"I think you always seem to be very humble? It feels very different from other noble girls. Maybe you are the one who is suitable to be a witch. When you arrive in Ise, I will introduce you to the local famous products. It’s where I’ve always lived after all.”

"Thank you, I will also pray for everyone's safety."

"That..." Ubuyashiki Kyoshi hesitated, "The general is an honest man, but this kind of honesty can cause deceit emotionally. If I didn't know those women, I would stand for the general's honesty." Excuse me, but I don't want to see you being lied to."

Long Ruoye understood, she had heard about Ju Yushan's chaotic relationship history from Qingmei, but he said it so euphemistically, but it was enough for Long Ruoye to understand what he meant, "You don't have to worry about it if you say that. Isn't there a human?"

"It seems that you don't think his behavior is correct." Taki Wakaba's expression was flat, and this kind of performance was not what Ubuyashiki pyroxene expected.

"No one is perfect, and it's not right to ignore his faults because of his dazzling advantages."

"Then when the two are in conflict, how should we choose?" Taki Wakaba said softly, as if he didn't seem to be asking Yashiki Pyroxene.

"Do you mean?"

"No, it's okay, you don't have to worry about it."

After Taki Ruoye returned to the mansion, it was already late at night, but she didn't feel sleepy, tossing and turning.

The residents who guard Heian-kyo let others go first in front of the monsters, and leave the danger to themselves, the brave and skilled general; and the figure who kills Taki Wakaba while talking and laughing, regardless of black and white.

Is this your disguise?Or is it your true face?Let me take another look, Juyushan.

Taki Ruoye let her eyes go, she tied up the curtain during the day yesterday, and did not put it down at night, the moonlight idly sprinkled on Taki Ruoye through the gaps of the spots, and a figure with a slightly bent body.

That figure didn't hold a lamp, but through the moonlight Taki Ruoye still recognized that it was Jing, and she seemed to be hesitating whether to disturb Taki Ruoye.

"Come in, I'm not asleep."

Jing's body straightened as if shocked, "Okay."

She walked into Taki Ruoye's bed, knelt and sat on one side, her slightly messy long hair spread out, "I heard you coming back, did you encounter something outside at this point?"

"Shuangying and the others are not worried...it's you..." Taki Ruoye's smile was somewhat helpless, she remembered the ambiguous smile Shuangying had when she came back, and Overtly and secretly asked her if she had gone on a date with some handsome man, "Is it because you are worried about me that you didn't sleep?"

"Maybe it is. I obviously want to sleep, but I can't sleep. I think a lot."

"I was traveling with Juyu Mountain. There was a monster that troubled him. His coachman and I spent some time reporting to him." This is not something worth hiding, and Taki Ruoye said it directly up.

"That's right, Taki Wakaba, you are very brave! I always feel... If I go to Ise, if you are by my side, I will feel at ease." Jing relaxed and twitched her legs He came out and sat with his knees tucked casually, "Sometimes, people always feel that they are the most special person, but in fact that is just an illusion. All the noble ladies in Ise Shrine have died, I don't think I It's a special one, but maybe that's the best value I can bring out. I'm not interested in anything because I know when I'm going to die, and those things... it's not really important, everyone knows it, but they're just Hopefully I can do better."

Jing glanced at Taki Ruoye, "Because Ruoye is very powerful, I can feel more at ease in the future. Let me tell you——If I die in a few years, you don't have to be sad! Although this is a bit arrogant Love, as if I am some kind of attractive person, but even if you are not pleasing to the eye, you will have feelings after being together for a few years! When I arrive in Ise, I will only have you by my side, so after I die, you Just choose the path you want to take, whether you stay in Ise Jingu Shrine or return to Heian-kyo, you don’t have to follow the arrangements of Akima Gozen, just do what you want, and just think that I died as I got what I wanted Bar."

"You..." Taki Ruoye was really a little surprised, "You really don't look like a prince."

"I'm serious! Besides, I've known for a long time that I don't look like a prince. I don't have the demeanor of a prince, right?!"

"I didn't mean that. I just didn't expect Prince Nei to have such a good child. I apologize for my prejudice against you. I'm sorry."

"Sorry or something, I didn't mean that either..."

"Why does Jing say that she is worthless? Why do you think that your greatest value is to die?" Taki Ruoye's tone calmly comforted Jing's heart, "I think that Jing survived It's worth more than dying."

Jing stared blankly at Taki Ruoye, Taki Ruoye poked her forehead, "What an idiot, still worrying about this matter. I've said it all, if you die, I'll go and bury you with you , whether it's me or you, try not to die."

"......why?"

"Because you will be the most special person, the only lucky one who can survive in a team expedition."

"Who did you hear?"

"I said so." Taki Ruoye patted Jing's head, "So don't worry."

"Ah... well, can I sleep with you tonight?"

"As you wish."

Jing took off her clothes rustlingly, and got into Taki Ruoye's bed.

"Wakaba." She whispered Taki Wakaba's name.

"Ah."

"Ruo Ye!"

"Ah."

"Ruo Ye!"

"Ok?"

"I like you so much. I haven't made a close friend since I was a child, but I think——you understand me."

"For example, what you are thinking now is, are you going to work hard for me? Try to be a fasting palace?"

"You can even see this?" Jing suddenly wondered if she had written all her thoughts on her face?

Because you are easy to understand, Mingjian Yuqian took care of Jing growing up, but he is not as thorough as an outsider who sees Jing.

"Thank you, Jing. But don't do it for me, you have to do it for yourself. I used to live for others. In the end, I found that the only person who loves me is myself. I decided to love myself no matter what. .So, Jing, don't hate yourself, in my eyes, you are enough."

"Luo Ye, when will I understand you?"

"Ok?"

"I'm sorry, you seem to be sad now, you have always comforted me, even a few words can make me happy, but... But I don't know what to say to make you happy, I'm sorry..." Jing Actually sobbed because of it.

"...That's why I say you don't look like a prince..."

Taki Ruoye hugged Jing and wiped away her tears.

In the next few days, she followed Shuang Ying and the elder maiden to learn as usual, but differently from the past, she sat quietly beside Luo Ye, even though this was not what she had to learn.

Ruoye also learned from Shuangying that Juyu Mountain is probably safe, so she didn't think about his affairs, but just calmed down and did her own thing, until Mingjian Yuqian came to this mansion a long time earlier.

There was a half-smile on Mingjian Yuzen's face, but since Taki Wakaba had been with her for so long, one could see a hint of anger hidden in her brows, and——this anger was directed at herself .
