As soon as he returned to Fengqing Palace, Dark Cloud appeared in front of Dongfang Du with a calm face, "Why did you want to go out with the army?" His right hand was clenched into a fist, and his palms were sweaty.

"Yun'er, if you go out with the army, you will have the opportunity to establish military merits." The best way to cultivate power in the army is to join the army and go to the battlefield, and become a friend of life and death with those soldiers.

"Why build military merit?" Dark Cloud walked up to Dongfang Du and raised his eyes to look directly at Dongfang. That night at the inn, Dark Cloud, who had been guarding outside the house, heard all the words that Dongfang Du and Chu Mi said, and already knew Dongfang Du's plan. It's just that until now, Dongfang Du has not personally told Sù Dark Cloud, she wants the throne.

Dongfang Du hesitated in his heart, and then raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, "Establish military merits, and he will be a prince with soldiers one day to protect the land of my Dongqian Kingdom." "Still didn't tell the dark clouds the truth.

When Dark Cloud heard this, his face became even more gloomy, and his heart ached faintly, and he couldn't help but reddened his eyes, looked at Dongfang Du with tears, and asked secretly in his heart: 'Why don't you still refuse to tell me the truth now, compared to your senior sister, am I so unworthy of your trust?' ’

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Dark Cloud's eyes were red, Dongfang Du hurriedly held her face with both hands, "I'm just a deputy general, I don't have to go into battle to kill the enemy, you don't have to worry." You are like this, so I am reluctant to go with the army. I thought that Dark Cloud was worried that she was in danger, but I didn't know that Dark Cloud was just heartache for her concealment, heartache for her distrust.

Pushing Dongfang Du's hands away, he turned his back to Dongfang Du, "Do you not trust me?" Tears slipped down quietly, and I didn't know how to face her.

Dongfang Du hugged Dark Cloud from behind and rested his head on Dark Cloud's shoulder, "How could I not trust you." You see, as soon as I came out of the imperial study, I went back to the Fengqing Palace first, and I wanted to be the first to tell you about this matter. "The first thing that comes to mind is you, how can I not trust you. It's just that I can't sue you for this real reason, I don't want you to know that I will do stupid things after I take the throne, I don't want you to get involved in disputes and get into danger, I just want you to stay by my side and be a simple and carefree child.

"Is that so...... Dark Cloud said in disappointment, wiping away the tears from his face without a trace, looking down at the hands wrapped around his waist, feeling the warmth behind him, but his heart was even colder.

"Of course it is." Dongfang Du closed his eyes and rubbed his chin in the shoulder socket, "Yun'er, it's good." "It's good that you've quit the Secret Guard, and I don't have to worry about dying by your sword in this life. It's just a pity that Jizhou has to go to the battlefield and can't stay with you longer.

"Okay?" Dark Cloud closed his eyes and thought back to his past life. If it's really good, it won't hurt you first before choosing to be with you. If it's really good, why don't you dare to tell you my truth? It turns out that we don't trust each other anymore.

"If one day, I hurt Brother Du, will Brother Du forgive me?" Dark Cloud asked softly, like the self that had never confessed.

"If you call Brother Du, I will naturally not forgive you, but if you call Xianggong, I will forgive you." Dongfang Du joked and clasped his hands tightly, "When my little Yun'er grows up, I'll marry Yun'er home, do you say okay?" "Now I'm fourteen, you're thirteen, and in five years I'll be able to marry you. There is still a trace of worry in my heart, will it be when the time comes, Dark Cloud will know that she is a woman, and she will not accept herself.

"What if, if I'm not your little Yun'er?" If it weren't for your little Yun'er, if it was that cloud guard, wouldn't you forgive me? Won't you want to marry me?

"If it's not ......," Dongfang Du tilted his head, "If you weren't Xiao Yun'er, then who would you be?" Little Lan'er? Aha......" Dongfang Du joked unscrupulously, not taking the issue of dark clouds seriously at all. sighed in my heart: 'Why is Xiao Yun'er sometimes bold, sometimes inferior and cowardly? Even this kind of if, you can ask.

"Du, in fact, I ......" Before the words fell, Dongfang Du smiled and said: "Okay, no matter who you are, no matter what you will do to me, I will forgive you." ”

Dark Cloud wanted to say, in fact, I am Yun Dark Guard, but at this moment, he was interrupted by Dongfang Du, and heard her say that she would forgive no matter what she did, so she swallowed the rest of the words back, "Since you will forgive me, then I don't need to sue you." ’

"Yun'er, I'll go to Jizhou City, you can stay in this capital and protect my mother concubine secretly, okay?" Speaking of Concubine Xian, Dongfang Du got serious and let go of his hands holding Dark Cloud.

"As your shadow guard, I want to go to Jizhou with you." Dark Cloud turned around and faced Dongfangdu, "Senior Sister Chu lives in the Zhaoxian Palace of Concubine Xian, presumably to protect Concubine Xian, with your senior sister here, why do you need me?" ”

"Why do you think that my senior sister lives in Zhaoxian Palace to protect her mother, not because she is a nameless woman who lives in a prince's palace?" Dongfang Du lowered his eyes and stared at the dark clouds, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart. Why protect the mother for no reason? If she didn't say it, no one would know that Senior Sister Chu lived in Zhaoxian Palace to protect her mother, and everyone would think that it was inconvenient for her to live in her Fengqing Palace before she went to Zhaoxian Palace.

"What do you know?" Thinking of the fact that the mother concubine was poisoned, I couldn't help but wonder if it was related to their secret guards.

Looking at the suspicion in Dongfang Du's eyes, Dark Cloud was afraid that his secret was guessed by Dongfang Du, and just wanted to speak, but heard Dongfang Du continue: "It was the dark guard who poisoned it? ”

"Poisoning...... What poisoning? Dark Cloud was surprised. Seeing that the surprise on Dark Cloud's face didn't seem like a pretend, Dongfang Du breathed a sigh of relief and said sincerely: "Yun'er, I almost thought that the poisoning of the mother concubine was related to your secret guard. I silently added in my heart: as long as it's not related to you, it's fine.

"Concubine Xian, aren't you sick?" Dark Cloud, who had just returned to the palace, didn't know that this virtuous concubine was poisoned. Thinking of the sudden death of Concubine Xian in the previous life, it was probably related to poisoning.

Dongfang Du shook his head, "It's not sick. His hands lightly clasped Dark Cloud's shoulders, "So you stay and secretly protect my mother." "That is her most important relative, with Chu Mi and Dark Cloud by her side to protect her mother, she can also go to Jizhou with peace of mind. Thinking of the unknown plans of Emperor Qianwen and General Zhang, I don't know what year and month it will take to go to Jizhou to return to the capital.

Looking at Dongfang Du's eager gaze, Dark Cloud could only nod.

"Yun'er, I'll go to the Zhaoxian Palace of the mother concubine, you can stay in this Fengqing Palace with peace of mind, and when I leave, you will go to Zhaoxian Palace." After Dongfang Du finished speaking, his face was slightly red, he paused, and continued: "I will sue the concubine, the relationship between you and me." ”

"Relationship? What is our relationship? Dark Cloud looked at Dongfangdu, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"What do you say?" Raised his hand and nodded at Dark Cloud's head, jokingly. Seeing Dark Yun looking at himself with a shallow smile, Dongfang Du put away his smile and said seriously: "Yun'er, you have to remember what you said, even if I am a woman, I am willing to be with me." ”
