Empire's top omega is matched to a deadly rival

"I haven't slept well these days."

His tone was the same as usual, but no matter how you listened to this sentence, it sounded a bit obedient.

Shen Yan didn't speak, what should he say.

He hasn't slept well these days?

Without Xi Guiyuan's pheromone beside his pillow, his sleep did become lighter, and occasionally he would wake up in the middle of the night due to the surge of pheromone.

Xi Guiyuan's warm breath fell on his neck, and the tips of his broken hair shuddered slightly on his skin, itching so much that Shen Yan tilted his head, this small movement made Xi Guiyuan tighten his embrace even more, almost It was because he was trapped in his arms that he couldn't break free.

Shen Yan seemed to feel something, and raised her hand to gently wrap her arms around his back: "There are indeed too many things that need to be dealt with recently."

Busyness is inevitable, and it is inevitable for Shen Yan to think about Xi Guiyuan, but it is not called thinking, but sometimes he will think of him and what he is doing, he does not know what will be in his heart when dealing with these things Feel.

Sensing Shen Yan's response, Xi Guiyuan tilted his head slightly, his forehead pressed against Shen Yan's soft hair, smelling the faint fragrance mixed with pheromone on his clothes: "Go home and live...our home."

Shen Yan didn't respond to his words, she lowered her eyes and closed her eyes, tilted her head slightly and raised her face slightly, her lips brushed against his jawline lightly.

A calm, lit signal.

Probably because of his dissatisfaction with his lack of answer, Xi Guiyuan was too aggressive tonight.

From the porch... to the living room, even holding him, one step, one step, up the stairs.

At three o'clock in the morning in the middle of the night, Xi Guiyuan received a message from a military plane.

The forearm stained with thin sweat was raised lightly, the virtual screen unfolded in front of him, and the faint blue light fell on his tight upper body. The muscles were thin and powerful, and the abdominal muscles were well-defined along the lines.

"What's the matter?" Shen Yan's voice was hoarse and soft, and the voice as clear as spring water was even more moving when it was slightly hoarse.

When he turned his head to look at the virtual screen, Xi Guiyuan had already turned off the optical brain, and Shen Yan's eyes were scattered at this moment, and he didn't capture any useful information from that moment.

"It's not important, let's talk about it tomorrow."

……

……

Shen Yan didn't fall asleep until dawn. After sleeping for about an hour and a half, he was awakened by the tense nerves.

Shen Yan had a feeling that something unusual would happen today.But what he didn't expect was that something unusual had already happened.

Restraining the soreness in the body and the soreness in the waist and abdomen, when they arrived at the military aircraft station in the morning, everyone was discussing that Mrs. Lorraine and the old party of the Gu family had rescued Gu Qinghe from prison in the early morning of last night.

"Morning?" Shen Yan slightly frowned and asked the person in front of her.

"The operation started at about [-]:[-] in the morning, and it was [-]:[-] in the morning when we discovered and launched the notification."

Shen Yan pinched the bridge of his nose, but he could not relax his slightly frowned brows. Now he knew what the news that Xi Guiyuan turned off and ignored in front of him.

Striding into Xi Guiyuan's office, Shen Yan looked around, but there was no one else inside except Xi Guiyuan, and immediately reprimanded him coldly: "Xi Guiyuan, you are so smart. You have a brain."

In the past, he heard that some Star Thief commanders refused to get out and delay the battle because of the little thing on the bed. He only thought it was ridiculous, but he never thought that Xi Guiyuan would do such an irrational thing.

"Give me a reason, otherwise I can't accept you letting them go like this."

"They can leave, of course someone wants them to leave."

Shen Yan's mind, which was temporarily occupied by emotions, immediately calmed down, and looked at Xi Guiyuan: "Now there are very few people in the empire who can surpass you."

"It's still there anyway." Xi Guiyuan's tone was indifferent, he didn't care too much about this matter, but he was more concerned about Shen Yan's appearance at the military aircraft station so early, his eyes fell on Shen Yan, and he looked at him complexion.

"did you have breakfast."

Shen Yan, who is still able to pass Xi Guiyuan's decision now, can only think of Marshal Xi who has resigned, especially Xi Guiyuan's current attitude, if such a thing happened, he would not care or even get angry. And only Marshal Xi.

From the moment Gu Qinghe became a prisoner, Shen Yan didn't even have the slightest loathing for him, he could leave, he could be released without charge, but only after the empire's law confirmed his innocence.

Shen Yan's expression became more and more indifferent, and he only uttered two hard words: "I didn't eat."

Seeing his expression, Xi Guiyuan knew what he was thinking, and his tone was comforting: "I'll ask someone to bring a copy, let's use it here." He paused, and added: "Today the kitchen made I bought your favorite crystal shrimp soup."

"Don't eat."

Shen Yan walked out without looking back, he knew that the Marshal had his own reasons for doing things, but Shen Yan wanted to know if that reason could convince him.

Before getting on the suspension car, an Alpha with a junior medal pinned to his chest walked quickly to the front of the car, and handed a meal in a paper bag to Shen Yan: "Commander, this is hot fresh milk and sandwiches, you Pay attention to your body, the general asked me to tell you to eat breakfast well."

Shen Yan took it and put it beside him: "Thank you." After speaking, he glanced at the paper bag, and his eyes stayed on the purple blue for a moment. On the fresh milk and drink box, there was a small blueberry Boxes, are desserts.

Shen Yan drank half a glass of fresh milk, and asked that the Marshal was in Lindong Church. When Shen Yan arrived at Lindong Church, it was the first time he set foot in a place.

Unlike the cathedral, which is extremely prosperous and holy, Lindong Church was built very early. At that time, the church did not have the influence it has today. Compared with the cathedral, this church is much smaller, without excessive decoration, and has a simple feeling But it hits people's hearts more directly.

There are sculptures of mermaids weeping on all sides. The fountain in front of the church is broken, and only half of the water can flow out of the water outlet. It seems that it has not been repaired in time.

Walking into the church, there are no graphic symbols that symbolize the universe and civilization. In front of the small main hall is a weeping Madonna embedded in the wall.

That tear hung on her face, with motherly tenderness and compassion.

The marshal was not in the church, so Shen Yan followed the church to the door at the back. The layout here was similar to that of the cathedral, and there was a rest area behind.

The eyes are full of emerald green.

No one has set foot here for too long, and a place without people is a paradise for plants. Even though the church sends people to prune it every year, the luxuriance of the barbaric growth is far from comparable to other places.

In the distance of the soft and deep grass, there are some chairs with metal structure and wooden slats. Marshal Xi is sitting on one of the benches, looking at the trees in the distance of the courtyard, which are already towering.

"Marshal." Shen Yan walked towards him.

Marshal Xi glanced sideways at him, and saw that his expression was much softer: "I have resigned from office, so you don't have to call me Marshal. If you want, you can still call me Uncle Xi."

Shen Yan looked at him, didn't answer, just asked: "I want to know why."

Shen Yan can still talk to him calmly, a large part of the reason is because he let go of Gu Qinghe instead of letting go of the emperor. The emperor killed Shen Bai and Lin Lin, killed the entire headquarters, and even almost killed Xi Guiyuan , if he wants to let the emperor go for a woman, Shen Yan and him have nothing to do but draw their swords.

Marshal Xi was silent for a while, he knew that at this time, saying anything was superfluous, and he didn't intend to say superfluous words, but just said lightly.

"Shen Yan, he is innocent."

"He is the only one among the royal family who is innocent."

"Where are those people on the execution ground?"

"He just wanted to lure you to show up. Although he announced his charges, he didn't intend to actually execute them. When your Uncle Gui went there that day, he found that they hadn't prepared any potions and execution bullets."

Shen Yan looked at him for a long time, and found that he still couldn't understand this man. In the past ten years, most of his fear of the Xi family came from this man who was like a mountain in front of the empire.

This mountain can resist all foreign invasions for the empire, and can easily crush any small accidents and ants. This sense of unpredictability and vigilance accompanied him in his growth.

Shen Yan was silent for a long time, and finally only asked a word softly, which was soon drifted away in the wind full of vegetation.

"What about her, won't you let her go?"

Marshal Xi glanced at him: "You kid, where did you hear the gossip?"

Shen Yan said nothing, and he said: "In my life, the person I love the most is my wife, and there is no one else except her."

"I just need a weakness, a weakness that makes the empire feel that it has controlled me. As long as this weakness exists, I can safely defend the empire and protect all its people."

But the empire still collapsed in his hands, and everything was left to be done. He would always think of some things in his youth, but they all scattered before his eyes like a cloud of smoke.

"The empire can no longer accommodate them, but the universe is huge, and they will have their own place to go. If they try to return to the empire in vain, I will personally kill them. I have already told them this."

"Marshal... you have worked hard."

Marshal Xi stared at him for a while: "Don't call me Marshal after I told you, call Uncle Xi to come and listen, your temper is really like your father's, the bigger you get, the more you look like a donkey."

"Uncle Xi..."

These two words were so unfamiliar that Shen Yan even felt that it was a bit difficult to pronounce them, but he easily completed them.

Marshal Xi smiled even more: "Good boy."

After Shen Yan left Lindong Church, it took a long time to calm down the feelings in her heart.

Marshal Xi's checks and balances and calculations towards the empire, the hearts of the people, and the royal family, his mountain-like power and power are built with such a sincere heart.

And when the Xi family wanted to plot against someone, they could do it to this extent.

When Marshal Xi mentioned his dead wife, the look in his eyes was so melancholy and desolate.

All the emotions came to my heart, and finally there was a trace of sadness that could not be erased. The rise and fall of the empire, the people, and the family were like a huge torrent, which came and went in a flash, sweeping over everyone, and the greatest misfortune of Marshal Xi was about In the face of this long life, the beloved is no longer by his side.

Shen Yan opened the small piece of blueberry dessert, and ate it spoon by spoon with the attached small porcelain spoon, using sweetness to dissolve the strong sadness.

Marshal Xi was still sitting on the bench. After Shen Yan left, the smile on his face disappeared, and he just quietly looked at the big tree in the courtyard, with its luxuriant branches.

He's been here the best of his life.

When I met her for the first time, it was under this tree. She was shy and timid, and hid here furtively, and even made her jump when I approached her.

"You...you are an Alpha, how can you scare an Omega."

"What are you doing here?" He asked casually at the time.

"I... I come to worship, don't all the people who come here come to worship the Virgin, don't you?"

"Well, me too." He felt that if he said no, this Omega probably wouldn't have a common language with him: "But what are you hiding?"

"My friends are outside, and they look down on people who pray to God and Buddha like this the most. If they see it, they will definitely say that I am an old-fashioned fool."

"Aren't they coming too?"

"They came with their mother, and then they can use the excuse that it was their mother who took her there, not their own intention."

At that time, he saw him so shy and timid, and he didn't even realize that the person in front of him was the legendary Omega, until he was slapped by her.

Thinking of that palm, a smile appeared on his face. No matter how many years have passed, that scene is very interesting.

Besides her, there was another person who had taught him in this church.

Compared with his wife's naive and shy smiles, the deepest impression left on him by that man is that he half-casts his eyes, holds a carving knife in one hand, and gently presses the plaster with the other hand, pouring everything into the fingers. appearance.

It has never been recorded in history, and few people know that the first emperor was good at carving.

He does not advocate any beliefs, and believes that God is the sustenance outside his heart, and all the high platforms left for God are opportunities for the devil.

But he likes to carve, and every statue in this church is carefully crafted by him.

The sick and weak congenital genetic deficiency, who was hastily pushed to the throne by the nobles and ministers during the royal battle, and who reigned for only seven years, used to be his teacher. He had carefully analyzed the situation and explained every dark corner to him time and time again. And undercurrents, check the policy books he has read.

It is precisely because of his frailty that he has kept his heart and desires from a young age and instilled everything into art. After he became emperor, he understood the cruelty of party struggle for power better than anyone else.

In his eyes, these things are useless, but so many people indulge in them.

The first emperor once said that it is difficult for the generation of the royal family to produce a smart person, so he hoped that the Xi family would produce a smart person.

And he swore that he would use all his abilities and talents to protect everything in the empire, and he would never betray the people for the sake of power and greed, causing turmoil easily.

The first emperor was a great thinker, but he was unable to change and control the current situation in the whirlpool, and in the end he could only place all expectations on him.

He seems to be his elder, but also his friend, a lifelong friend.

When he was dying, he handed the last letter to him, telling him that if one day, the empire fell into a quagmire and reached a point where it could no longer make a choice, he would open it.

He walked into the dark room and opened the letter from many years ago.

In that letter, on that page, there was only a short sentence written. The handwriting was written by his weakened hand. It was neat and beautiful, but the strokes were very light, like the light lines of his chisel.

If you unfortunately come to that day, you will replace it.
