"Forget it, I can see it now - at most you can believe half of what you say or not half of it. If you believe everything, I will definitely be the one who suffers later."

Song Zichen gave a helpless wry smile, shook his head resignedly and said, "That's fine, I don't even believe the last one—I know better than anyone why my father doesn't like me. To be honest, if I have A son, I have to find him annoying..."

"Your Highness, don't underestimate yourself too much. In fact, I still think that His Highness was quite cute at that time—at least among the princes, I also picked His Highness at a glance."

Mu Qiu couldn't help chuckling, then patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, and said something warmly.Song Zichen sighed with a smile, raised his hand to cover his face, fell back on the couch gloomily, tugged at his sleeve and shook it boringly: "Honestly, Mu Qiu—I still feel that, When you picked me back then, it actually only meant one thing..."

"what's up?"

Mu Qiu couldn't help being slightly surprised, and patiently let him dangle his sleeves, and couldn't help but ask curiously.Song Zichen turned over and sat up, looked at him solemnly and said, "It means that everything else is fine with you, only your vision is really bad..."

Hearing what he said, Mu Qiu couldn't help being slightly surprised, raised his eyebrows for a moment, and finally couldn't help shaking his head and laughing lightly: "Your Highness is right--in this case, His Highness should choose someone himself, if If I come to choose, if I am not sure, I will lose my eyes again..."

"Mu Qiu—have you really admitted that you were wrong before?"

Song Zichen looked at him with heartache, covered his heart exaggeratedly, and shook his head with tears in his eyes: "I knew it - you finally started to despise me..."

"Your Highness guessed right. To be honest, I already despise His Highness so much—if His Highness stops forcing me to finish this bowl of porridge, I might not be so disgusted with Your Highness."

But Mu Qiu also cooperated with his acting, nodded seriously, patted his shoulder painfully, and stuffed the porridge bowl in his hand into his hand: "I beg Your Highness, I am really No appetite..."

"Okay, this porridge is also cold. If you don't eat it, don't eat it—it just so happens that I also think it's too boring to eat porridge all the time. I'll make you something else later."

Looking at the porridge that was half eaten in the bowl, Song Zichen was already quite satisfied, but he no longer forced him to continue eating, so he took the porridge and put it into his mouth in two bites: "Muqiu, I'll wait a while. Go out, just help you find the dark guard? How should I find him? Do you have any special means of contact—it’s too stupid to ask me to go out and talk to the empty space..."

"Your Highness, if you want to say that, I actually have no means..."

Mu Qiu couldn't help being slightly startled, hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head regretfully: "After all, summoning the hidden guards is basically a shout to the outside, and they will come when they hear it... Don't your Highness think this will be very prestigious? ?”

"Prestige?"

Song Zichen blinked his eyes in surprise, and thought carefully for a while, but he still didn't feel any prestige, but he still stood up bravely: "Forget it, forget it—you stay here and take care of yourself." Just wait, I'll find someone for you."

"Thank you, Your Highness..."

Mu Qiu couldn't help chuckling, then nodded slightly.However, Song Zichen had no choice but to take a deep breath. He made up his mind to leave the room, looked outside, and cupped his hands bravely: "Is senior here? Mu Qiu wants to see you..."

Before he finished his words, a figure suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, bowing to him on one knee: "My lord calls, I will dare to obey, and please His Highness the Seventh to lead the way."

Although Song Zichen had never practiced martial arts seriously like the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, after all, he followed Mu Qiu's practice a lot, and he didn't even notice how this person appeared. He was so frightened that he instinctively took a step back and patted him lightly. Patting his chest, he barely calmed down his beating heart: "Okay——Senior, please follow me..."

Even though he already knew that Mu Qiu's identity was not ordinary, Song Zichen couldn't help but feel a slight movement in his heart when seeing that his father's secret guards were so respectful to that person, but suddenly remembered Mu Qiu's previous reaction, so he still took the That thought was suppressed, and he just led the hidden guard all the way back to the house.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw at a glance that the man was not lying obediently on the couch, but was trying to get up while holding onto the edge of the couch with difficulty.Before he can quickly walk over to help him stabilize, the hidden guard behind him has already quickly stepped up to meet Mu Qiu, and firmly held Mu Qiu's arm: "My lord, don't move, your injury is not healed yet, you need to rest more."

"Brother Wei, I don't mind..."

As soon as Mu Qiu saw his face, she smiled and called softly, and sat back following his strength.The hidden guard seemed never to have thought that he could still remember his name, and some pleasant surprises flashed in his eyes, but he quickly lowered his head: "I was originally responsible for guarding the young master and His Highness the Seventh Highness, but let the villain take advantage of the loopholes. I am already extremely guilty, young master must not make any mistakes..."

"I can't blame you all. At that time, I wanted to say something to Your Highness, but I didn't want you to know it, so I deliberately led His Highness to walk around a little, and kept a little distance from you. It was also because I was too lax at that time. I thought I had come to the end, there would be no surprises..."

Mu Qiu shook his head with a slight smile, rested for a while, and eased the dizziness before, then looked at Song Zichen at the side and said warmly: "Your Highness, I have something to say to Big Brother Wei—don't worry, I'm fine."

"Oh—oh, okay, then I'll go and see for you if all those people have been found."

Song Zichen was stunned for a moment, then realized that he seemed to have been cleared again, subconsciously nodded, touched his nose, and left the room step by step.But Mu Qiu couldn't help but laugh, watched him patiently close the door, and finally relaxed, covered his mouth and coughed twice, his palms were bright red again.

"My lord, your health is getting worse and worse—if you don't explain the situation to the emperor, I'm afraid you will be like Master Mu..."

The dark guard couldn't help but took a step forward, carefully supported his body, and whispered a word of persuasion.But Mu Qiu just shook his head helplessly and smiled wryly, with a bit of powerless weariness in his eyes: "How can I tell the emperor... do I have to tell the emperor that it was my elder brother who poisoned me personally and killed me?" Did you get to this point? You also know that the position of the third prince in the emperor's mind is different from mine..."

"But—but—"

Most of the hidden guards were clumsy with words, but they couldn't continue for a long time. They just gritted their teeth and lowered their heads. After a long time, they said in a deep voice: "But the third prince grew up in the palace since he was a child, and he was also treated in the palace. According to the teachings of Master Mu, the young master was raised by Master Mu himself... If the emperor wants to find the shadow of Master Mu, he should look for the young master—"

"Brother Wei, these words can only be said between you and me, and you must not tell outsiders..."

Mu Qiu shook his head lightly, interrupted his words in a low voice, coughed a few times uncontrollably, and finally regained his breath, and sighed very softly: "The third prince is bleeding from his father's body." and I was just an orphan rescued by my father at the time when his heart softened. For the emperor, I am already grateful for the special preferential treatment. I am just worried-if the third prince continues like this, will it be one time? It will hurt His Highness, after all, I will not be able to catch up every time..."

"My lord, does His Highness the Seventh Prince not know about these things?"

The dark guard carefully grasped his wrist veins, channeled some internal energy for him, and poured him a cup of tea before hesitating and whispering: "Master, why don't you talk to His Highness the Seventh Prince first, so that you can call His Highness the Seventh Prince?" He was prepared in his heart, so as not to have time..."

"How can I talk to him? Do you want me to tell His Highness that the person who persecutes him endlessly is not his own brother, but my elder brother?"

Mu Qiu smiled wryly and murmured, raised his hand to cover his eyes, and sighed very lightly: "No matter what I do, I still can't talk to His Highness smoothly. Even if His Highness can ignore it, can I still feel at ease?" Am I by his side? From the perspective of others, can I really be trusted?"

"How can you be untrustworthy, Young Master—Young Master has already paid so much for His Highness the Seventh Prince, so is there anyone who would doubt the Young Master's intentions?!"

The dark guard couldn't help but took two steps forward and asked anxiously.But Mu Qiu just covered his lips and coughed for a while, then shook his head with a wry smile: "There are always many people who do tricks in this world. I can actually trust His Highness, and I understand his thoughts. But if you want me Jumping away and looking at this matter from the perspective of a bystander, even I can't believe it myself, how can a person do so much for nothing without asking for anything..."

"The young master... do you want anything?"

The dark guard clenched his fists before asking another question in a low voice.Mu Qiu couldn't help being slightly startled, and nodded with a smile after a long while, but his eyes couldn't help flashing a little melancholy: "Yes, I want to go a little further with His Highness, and watch him go a little further. I hope to wait until On the day of my death, he can tell me to let go of my hand, and no one can hurt him again..."

"Young Master has been living for His Highness the Seventh Prince all his life, just like Mr. Mu, living for the Emperor all his life..."

The dark guard was silent for a long time before he sighed again, his eyes finally flashed with sadness: "The Third Highness won't go on like this for too long—even if the Emperor doesn't want to admit it, and finds a way to excuse the Third Highness, what he did Those things are also well-documented, and it is nothing more than how the emperor should change the sentence. You must protect yourself, don't force yourself to work hard like this, and tell us if you have anything. As long as we can help, we will help you. Everyone is willing to help.”
