After wearing lotus essence

The lights in Jinguang City were lit all night, even if Rong Muyuan was in the border town of Nandai, he could vaguely hear the noise of the army gathering there.

The candlelight was so deep that Rong Mu couldn't sleep, so he closed his eyes and let out a breath.

The Second War in Hankou River had caused Shang Cizhou to hold back his uncontrollable anger. He couldn't deal ruthlessly against his homeland, Shang Cizhou, and even the people under him were suppressed. At this time, it is no different from plucking hairs from the tiger's mouth.

Especially this time, Xiyue's methods were despicable, and Shang Cizhou had to set off overnight.

Xia Houyan once told him not to sympathize with a country despised by Shang Cizhou. Rong Mu didn't quite understand this sentence before, but now he only feels that poor people have something to hate.

If evil is not used to control evil, how can the border of Dashang be stable for so many years?

According to historical records, during the period of the Great Shang Emperor, Xiyue was rampant and tight. Now Xiyue can go, and so can Dashang. People like Shang Cizhou don’t talk too much, and when they get angry, they will really go to the battlefield to sweep the "tyrant", Not one will emerge in hundreds of years.

Ernu didn't even care about the life and death of his own people, and used real people to entrap the border garrison. Shang Cizhou went, and he didn't know how many sections he had to cut Xiyue into to relieve his hatred...

A servant pushed the door open and cut off the candles outside. Rong Mu moved his body, and saw the person outside slightly blushing and said: "Your Highness, did the servant wake you up?"

Your Highness?

Rong Mu was in a trance for a while.

Yes.

Although the king of Nandai didn't officially announce it, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Rong Li cares about him, and they have extremely similar looks.

Rong Mu tossed and turned, for a while, it was Shang Cizhou's leaving figure, and for a while, it was the doting and sad eyes of the King of Nandai when he looked at him.

Bi Jiangxue was placed in his room, Rong Mu simply got up: "It's nothing, you go down, I can't sleep and get up and walk."

"Yes."

After the outer door was closed, Rong Mu slowly squatted beside Bi Jiangxue, his eyes flickered slightly in the night, looking at the big lotus in full bloom.

After looking forward to it for so long in Dashang, Bi Jiangxue didn't want to bloom. As soon as she got close to her hometown, Nandai, this flower became positive.

Rong Mu reached out and poked the flower pole: "Shang Cizhou always said that he wanted to see you in full bloom, but now it's all right, you want to open it, but he left... Bi Jiangxue, tell me, Shang Cizhou will Have you set off yet?"

Bi Jiangxue shook the leaves.

Rong Mu muttered: "You are always closer to him than I am. I always feel that you know a lot of things, but you can't speak, and sometimes you don't sympathize with me at all... Bi Jiangxue, Nan Dai Lilihua Jun, why do you end up so miserable? If I were like this, brother Wang would have died of grief. And Shang Cizhou, who never met me when he was young, might become a real tyrant. ...No one can control him, maybe Nan Dai has already been beaten down by him."

Bijiangxue's water waves shook slightly.

Rong Mu got up, but still couldn't let go of Mr. Hua's secret: "To die young, to die suddenly, to die from exhaustion, to use such a tragic end to exchange a country for decades of peace, is this really the right way? Brother Wang I want to stop Huajun's catastrophe, but the incidence of hematemesis in Nandai is still high, if things go on like this, I'm afraid the country will be destroyed."

Bi Jiangxue didn't move, but the stamens were flickering slightly, Rong Mu stepped forward to check carefully, and found a bead-like thing vaguely buried deep in the stamens.

Rong Mu stretched out his hand to grab it, but before he touched it, Bi Jiangxue suddenly flickered, and at the same time, there was a sharp pain in the familiar position on his chest, just like the feeling every time Shang Cizhou felt affectionate towards him. Feel the same.

Rong Mu stood still, looking at the faint golden bead, it was rare for Bi Jiangxue to take the initiative to warn him - don't touch it.

He slowly retracted his fingers, looked at the position on his chest, and then at the golden bead.

It seems that it is the lotus heart that he has formed.

Rong Mu lowered his arms, and the voice of "Hua Jun" on the battlefield echoed in his mind.

He has a lotus heart, so every lotus king in the Southern Dynasty should have a lotus heart. If all the previous flower kings pass away, will this heart die with the wind, or will it be kept somewhere by the royal family of the Southern Dynasty?

He was slightly lost in thought. At this moment, there were two knocks on the door: "Amu, it's me. The maid said you couldn't sleep. Brother Wang, come and have a look."

Rong Mu blinked, walked out and opened the door, and sure enough, he saw Rong Li standing outside the door neatly.

"Brother Wang..."

Rong Li's eyes moved: "Brother Wang, this is the most comfortable cry from Amu."

Rong Mu lowered his head slightly: "It's so late, why are you still awake?"

Rong Li: "I'm asleep, I've already woken up, and it's the time of Mao."

Rong Mu was silent for a moment: "...Oh."

The volume makes the scalp numb.

He thought of something, brought Rong Li into the room, then pulled Bi Jiangxue's head to show Rong Li: "Brother Wang, look."

Rong Li leaned over slightly, his pupils moved and said: "...Ah Mu has his own lotus heart?"

Rong Mu nodded: "Yes, it should have been produced by Bi Jiangxue after she opened it. Brother Wang seems to know this thing too."

Rong Li's expression was complicated: "Every king of the Southern Dynasty knows this thing. My Southern Dynasty has existed for more than [-] years, and there have been six generations of Hualords. No matter when each generation of Hualords passes away, they will leave behind this golden lotus heart." , counting Amu's, exactly seven."

Rong Mu asked: "Why did you keep this thing? Is it useful?"

Rong Li shook his head: "I don't know, I only know that this is the last relic of Huajun in the past, so I kept it well, and the other six are enshrined in the Huajun Palace of the Southern Dynasty."

Rong Mu pondered for a while, but was knocked on the head by Rong Li: "No matter what, Brother Wang will not ask you to give birth to lotus flowers again. You have survived the calamity of premature death, but you are not even 20 years old. Brother Wang Don't worry, Ah Mu should stay by Brother Wang's side."

Rong Mu nodded obediently, and asked cautiously: "Brother Wang, Shang Cizhou, are you leaving?"

Rong Li looked at him, let out a sigh of relief after a while and said, "Just now, I saw a large merchant fleet on the city wall."

Rong Mu's expression was slightly lively: "I don't know when he will come back..."

Rong Li was silent for a while, and said: "Amu, if you really like men, there are many good men in Nandai, why don't Brother Wang help you pick a few who know the basics, and if you like it, call him into marriage, if you don't like it Let's change it, and keep it if we like it, what do you think?"

Rong Mu said with difficulty: "I, I'm still widowed."

Rong Li looked at him: "Anyone is fine, but Shang Cizhou is not good. He is too dangerous and too unpredictable. If you are in Dashang, you may have been suspected by him a long time ago, otherwise he would not have met me face to face. , and said that he wanted to get married."

Rong Mu raised his eyes: "But, he still doesn't know about my relationship with Bi Jiangxue—"

Rong Li interrupted him: "How can you be so sure? Maybe he guessed that you and Bi Jiangxue are related, but ordinary people's beliefs are not enough to make him think that you and Bi Jiangxue coexist, but if you keep in touch with Bi Jiangxue , within half a year, your secret will definitely be discovered by Shang Cizhou... A Mu, he is the emperor, you are so simple, how can you play it?"

Rong Mu thought about every bit of Dashang in his mind, and suddenly said: "But without him, there would be no me."

Rong Li's expression froze: "What do you mean?"

Rong Mu said slowly: "Shang Cizhou joined forces with the abbot of Dashang Huguo Temple to activate the secret method and summoned me back. That abbot is the one who took Bi Jiangxue away from the Nandai Imperial Palace. Brother Wang, you don't understand , Shang Cizhou has a deep obsession with me, as long as I'm still waiting for him, nothing will happen, but if I accept the male favorite in Nandai, the male favorite's body will be hung on the city wall tomorrow...he really If he can do it, he is such a domineering person."

Rong Li frowned: "Such a person, wouldn't it make people want to escape?"

Rong Mu shook his head: "No, no, if he didn't have a bad past, he must be a gentle monarch, but unfortunately now he can only blacken himself with blood, otherwise the wolves and leopards around him will make him unable to grasp any ideas in his hands. What I want, now everyone calls him a tyrant, I am thinking, if even I want to run away from him, how pitiful he would be."

Rong Li took a deep breath: "Shang Cizhou must have exhausted his luck in ten lifetimes, only for you to protect and treat each other like this."

Rong Mu sighed with a smile: "Oh, maybe."

Rong Li glanced at him again: "...don't talk about this, you go back to sleep for a while, and be careful."

The news that the Nandai found the king's younger brother spread throughout the two countries within seven days, and the Nandai king specially set up a day for this purpose to have fun with the people. As the fragrance lingered, the people crowded out to see this legendary and incomparably beautiful His Royal Highness, but the King was very strict with this younger brother who had found it halfway, and they didn't even see a piece of clothing.

However, the members of the royal family had this opportunity to observe closely. Because they looked too similar to the Southern King, a group of brothers and sisters who were questioning were silent after seeing it.

In front of the gate of Rong Mu's palace, on the first day, there were flowers and branches showing good intentions, on the second day, there were food for feeding, and on the third day, the eager head was peeping.

He opened the door of the palace, and the white royal costumes were extremely docile on his body. The back of the young man's head was no longer a bell, but a sapphire clasp, gorgeous and extravagant.

A child peeked around the corner, couldn't help but let out a wow, and then quickly covered his mouth.

Rong Mu leaned over and looked over, beckoning: "Hey, come here."

The child in the miniature king's suit came over timidly, rubbed his toes and said, "Mu, brother Mu, hello."

Rong Mu has gotten used to this kind of greeting these days, so he also replied: "You are well too, what's your ranking?"

Seeing that he was so gentle and easy to talk, the child's tone jumped up. He looked at Rong Mu with sparkling eyes and said, "Ranking, ranking No. 16, called Rong Ji! My concubine mother is the eighth wife of the king!"

Rong Mu hissed, thinking that the prosperity of the royal family of this generation has a lot to do with the old Nandai Wang Fengliu.

Rong Ji looked at Rong Mu adoringly and said, "Brother Mu, I heard that you have been living in Dashang for a few years?"

Rong Mu was slightly taken aback, then remembered Shang Cizhou again, he smiled and said: "Yes, in the Imperial Capital of the Great Shang."

Rong Ji said again: "They all said that you had to suffer a lot to come back. Brother Wang loves you very much. You are different from us. You are the lost child of the queen, and brother Wang is a direct relative of the same mother. brother!"

Rong Mu's eyes curved: "Everyone is the same."

But Rong Ji sighed: "No wonder Brother Wang told you to sleep until the sun was high, and didn't let us disturb you. When did Brother Wang be so tolerant? Brother Mu can go to bed at night, and Brother Wang can coax you to sleep. The night is uninterrupted, Little Sixteen is envious!"

Rong Mu: "..."

It's time to pick a time to discuss the issue of anti-involution with Brother Wang.

"Today, I skipped Grand Master's class to see the beautiful brother Wang. I happened to meet you going out. They must be very jealous of me!"

Rong Mu patted him on the head: "Actually, there's nothing to look at. Go back to class after reading it."

Once, Bi Jiangxue transmitted memories to him under the osmanthus tree. It was the time when Shang Cixie invaded the East Palace. At that time, Rong Mu still couldn't understand why he said that "there is only one prince who can see the royal family of the Great Shang" , but now the scene is brought in.

Compared with the royal family of the Southern Dynasty, the royal family of the Great Shang Dynasty is indeed a muddy mud. No matter how clean Shang Cizhou was born, if he quarrels in it, he will definitely be completely black...

Oh, why did I think of him again.

Rong Mu looked up at the sunlight, and walked towards the lake behind Wangting.

Brother Wang forbids him to use his power to expose the identity of Mr. Hua, but the plight of Nandai Kingdom cannot be stagnant, let's try to save as many people as possible without anyone noticing...

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and the setting sun is like blood. The same Golden Crow shines on different worlds.

Lianyu was lying on the wooden bed like a dead fish, only his slightly heaving chest told outsiders that he was still alive.

Shang Cizhou is not human, mother, Shang Cizhou is not human!

Lianyu learned a few swear words from Li Lun.

If he was a man, he would not be tied up with a rope during the boat trip, and he would also be tied up when he went into the water, for fear of diving back to find his master.

Pooh!Dog Emperor, Black Heart Lotus, don't treat fish as fish!The first time I walked this waterway, even if Lianyu opened his eyes, he was delayed on the road for four or five days. During these four or five days, he still had to bear Shang Cizhou's suspicious eyes, which were short of the word trash carved out!

Lianyu turned over on the wooden bed of the border garrison, her throat was extremely thirsty, and she turned her head to touch water to drink.

But the kettle was already empty, so he had no choice but to beat his useless waist and go out with the kettle in his hand.

The wind was raging, and the smell of blood in the distance could not be dissipated. Lianyu cursed and cursed in her heart, but she did not dare to confront Shang Cizhou at all.

After walking for a long time, he scooped up some water from a small depression. He gulped down a couple of gulps when he was thirsty. He noticed that the taste was not right. He lowered his head and thought that the clear water had already been muddy, mixed with blood that flowed from nowhere. .

Lianyu shook her hand, threw the water bottle out, lay down next to her and retched a few times, before she could straighten up, she saw a group of people coming back from a distance.

This is the border of the Dashang garrison, and those who come back must be Dashang soldiers. Lianyu now has 1 people who don't want to meet this group of evil stars who cut their ears and accumulate merit.

"Have you caught all those plagued people?"

"...Never, I heard that there were still a few who were running. His Majesty was so angry that he dragged the captured ones to the gate of the city, and killed them as an example to the monkeys. They were all cut to pieces."

"Hey... Xiyue, that bastard, doesn't care about human affairs. I heard that His Majesty is fighting against Nandai in the south. At this time, he used such low-handed means to trick us. Isn't this rushing to death? They probably didn't expect that His Majesty directly Take the water and kill him..."

"Yes, when the large merchant ship appeared at the Xiyue Ferry, the people of Xiyue were frightened. The people brought by His Majesty, plus the border garrison, is killing the enemy the same as cutting melons and vegetables? It's a pity that the cattle and sheep The epidemic has spread, and I have suffered a lot for the merchants and soldiers, and the war has also been delayed."

Lianyu put his back on his back, and was about to wait for the sound of horseshoes to pass, but unexpectedly, there was a sound of wind behind him, and he dodged abruptly, only to be seen by several generals waving whips: "Oh, so it's little brother Lianyu, you hide like this!" We thought it was a fleeing plague man! Next time, don’t carry yourself behind your back, be careful to be trampled to death by a horse—"

Lianyu: "..."

What kind of perverts did Shang Cizhou raise?Master, I'm so scared I'm going home!

Shang Cizhou held his breath, and spent seven days cutting in Xiyue before stopping. Ernu hadn't been found yet, but news came from the court of Xiyue that the old king of Xiyue was gone.

Lianyu was outside the camp when she heard the news, marching and fighting is like this, here today and tomorrow there, Lianyu pinches her fingers and counts, if this fight continues, Xiyue may be subjugated, that old Xiyue The King of Yue might have been scared to death by the tyrant Shang Cizhou!

He held the clean water bottle he had managed to obtain with great difficulty, raised his head and took a sip, then put down the water bottle, and saw Shang Cizhou coming back from not far away, with a few people bound behind Wu Zhui's ass West Vietnamese with hands and feet.

Lianyu almost choked out a sip of water, now he wanted to run away when he saw Shang Cizhou, but before he could run away, the emperor stopped him: "You."

Lianyu pointed to herself: "Me?"

Shang Cizhou tilted his head and said with a slight smile, "Yes, come here, dear Lianyu, come and help Gu catch Wu Chui."

The hair on Lianyu's back is standing on end, Wu Zhui's body is fat and strong, and she is slicked by Shang Ci's day. She can kill people when she runs at full speed, and if her butt is dragged behind her like this, within three laps, these people will undoubtedly die.

He swallowed, cursing the pervert in his heart while trembling his lips slightly: "I, I won't do it."

When Shang Cizhou approached, Lianyu suddenly felt as if he was overwhelmed by blood energy. Under such terrifying suppression, he could still remember the "fight" between the two in front of the master. That fight, to Shang Cizhou Let's say it's an exhibition match, without the master by his side, will Shang Cizhou really dislike him and kill himself...?

Will it?He would do such a thing, absolutely!

Lianyu trembled all over and didn't dare to think deeply, but under the influence of Rong Mu, she couldn't do such a cruel thing, so she took a step back and said, "I, I'll go and boil hot water for you, so as to wash away the smell of blood on your body, you are like this, It’s no wonder that the master doesn’t dislike—”

Shang Cizhou really paused, and Hei Youyou's eyes rolled slightly: "You're right, Gu's appearance like this doesn't please him, so you can go boil the water."

Lianyu felt as if she had been pardoned, and she felt that holding the master's name was like holding a death token.

——He was really scared.

Shang Cizhou used to act really well in front of his master, it's hard for a person like him to go to the enemy's camp to meet the king of Nandai for his master's sake.

If Nandai had no master, and Xiyue was like this bear, would this map still be able to frame this tyrant?The more Lianyu thinks about it, the more frightened her heart becomes. No wonder Liankong has to stare at Dixing all the time... If Shang Cizhou can't stop this madness, this world will definitely become a purgatory.

Lianyu missed her master 5 times. With the master here, Shang Cizhou is such a peaceful time... She was in Taiping and didn't know it, but now she knows that peace is the most important thing.

Master, I was wrong, I will never fight with Shang Cizhou again.

When Lianyu came back with hot water, she saw that the few West Vietnamese soldiers that Shang Cizhou had just brought back were already piled up in a corner, Wu Zhui was anxiously planing the hooves of the horse, wanting to lower his head to eat grass, but the grass was on the ground. They were all blood beads, it snorted in disgust.

No wonder Shang Cizhou is so irritable. Ernuo looks like a bastard. He hides his head and shrinks his tail. It's very hard to find. If you can't catch Ernuo, Xiyue will definitely make a comeback. See you here in Shangcizhou If he doesn't come to his master, he can't find someone who has taken advantage of him to vent his anger.

Looking at the stalemate in the battle situation, and the cattle and sheep epidemic that infects people, it would be good if the autumn harvest can be rushed back...

A falcon hovered twice in the sky and landed on the emperor's shoulder. He raised his hand and opened the letter on the falcon's leg. Lianyu saw that Shang Cizhou's face softened, and knew that it was the person who stared at Nandai. There must be news of his master in the incoming letter.

When he got closer, he saw the deeds of "His Royal Highness" written on it as expected.

Where did he go to play, attended a few more banquets, the princess took him to learn to drink again, chased the flower slaves a few times, and even the king of the Southern Dynasty read him the scriptures before going to bed... There are no details, what should be recorded It's all on top.

The king of the Southern Dynasty has announced to the world, and the flowing water banquet has been held for many days. Rong Mu has entered the genealogy of the Southern Dynasty royal family and has officially become the prince of the Southern Dynasty. Half of the beauty of the owner?

As soon as the master smoothed Shang Cizhou's body hair, Ernuo was fine, so he came up and plucked it upside down.

Who dies if he doesn't die?

Seeing Shang Cizhou put away the letter with a smile on his face, Lianyu went into the tent and took a piece of paper and sat cross-legged on the ground.

The soldiers who came and went walked around the emperor. He held the pen expressionlessly, and after thinking for a moment, the ink marks appeared on the paper.

Standing behind Shang Cizhou, Lianyu didn't dare to look closely, but she could vaguely see something.

—— Seeing the letter is like a face, and the pavilion is well.

Gu is now in the tenth city of Xiyue, and the subjects of Xiyue are very happy to see Gu, and they are also happy. They gave all the best things to Gu. Gu feels that they are very knowledgeable about current affairs, but Tingzhi is kind, I feel that I can't do too much now, and I want to accumulate merits and blessings for Ting Zhi, so I left some property and food for the old and the weak, women and children... A few years ago, I didn't want to go back when there was a war, but now I can't hold back after only half a month. It's really nice, it's just a trivial matter, and I can't go back to the country yet, Ting...

After writing here, the ink on the wolf hair was exhausted, Shang Cizhou frowned, Lianyu immediately took out the inkstone from inside, Shang Cizhou frowned, scratched the wolf hair in the inkstone, and continued to write.

Lianyu glanced at it, felt that the color of the ink was wrong, lowered her head and smelled it carefully, it turned out that there was a shortage of water recently, and the clear water used to dissolve the ink was replaced by wolf blood.

He took a deep breath, shaking the hand holding the inkstone slightly, Shang Cizhou wrote his lovesickness with dark red ink, and then stuffed the letter into the letter box of the eagle.

"This is Gu's first time writing to him. Do you think he is thinking of Gu too? Gu misses him so much and wants to eat the lotus root noodles he made."

Lianyu: "...Yes."

Dare I say no? !

Shang Cizhou nodded in satisfaction, he was not by Rong Mu's side, he was always ruthless, and Lianyu reminded him that the hot water was ready, and saw Shang Cizhou wash his face and hands inside, Only then did he take out a piece of top-grade jade from his bosom, and carved it carefully with a file.

Half of the jade material already vaguely has the shape of a lotus flower. It is clearly a living king who kills people without blinking an eye, but it seems that at an inadvertent moment, it reveals a trace of careful tenderness.

Lianyu walked over to hold Wuchai, the night in Xiyue was a bit cold, even the moonlight seemed to be covered with frost, the sound of files behind him was intermittent, Shang Cizhou had never looked at the military situation so carefully.

And now, he just wants to carve a gadget for his master who doesn't know if it will be liked or not.

Lianyu sighed in her heart: Compassion Kong, Compassion Kong, you pray for the Dharma all day to pray for the peace and prosperity of the Emperor Star. If I were you, I would first offer [-] longevity lamps to the master, and pray that he will not suffer from all diseases in this life and prolong his life. , Don't let him lose another hair and suffer a little more.

Tingzhi is safe and daylight is bright, Tingzhi is dangerous and stars are falling, Shang Cizhou, the vicious dog, the last trace of purity in his heart is only left to the person who once gave him a hand in the mud...
