After Dark Cloud returned to the palace, she went to see her master. At the age of thirteen, she has not officially taken over the position of the leader of the secret guard, and she still has a chance to quit. It's just that she wanted to quit, but her master didn't let her go so easily.

Looking at the dark cloud that had been kneeling on the ground for a long time, her master couldn't stop sighing, and finally asked again, "Do you really want to quit the dark guard organization?" "Although they don't have any rank, they have the status of being above 10,000 people under one person, and they have the greatest power of life and death in their hands except for the emperor.

Dark Cloud recalled the scenes of his previous life, he had been in the secret guard training camp since he could remember, at the age of twelve, as the leader of the reserve, he entered the palace to follow the master to learn the duties of the secret guard, learn how to protect the emperor, and how to carry out the emperor's orders. Loyalty is the only creed, and for five years, the word loyalty has been repeatedly strengthened in the brain. It is said that since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety are difficult to achieve, dark clouds are orphans, loyal is the king, filial piety is the master, her loyalty and filial piety can be both, that is, to be a secret guard forever.

In her previous life, loyalty and filial piety and love, she chose loyalty and filial piety, and also chose love - to repay the love of Dongfang with her life, a dilemma that can only be solved with life.

In this life, how can she use her life to fulfill both, she has been wrong once, and this time, how can she be wrong again. Darkcloud nodded affirmatively, "Yes, I'm quitting the Dark Guard." After speaking, he fell to the ground, "Please Master do it." ”

"Alas~" Master Dark Cloud sighed regretfully, knowing in his heart that this can keep people and how to keep their hearts, without the heart of loyalty, it is difficult to take on a big responsibility if they keep it, "Xiao Yun'er, I have raised you for thirteen years, and I have already regarded you as a successor." The positions of the leaders of the nine dark guards are all inheritance, and you are the person recognized by the master...... "No matter what, I don't want the dark cloud to leave the organization.

"Over the years, thanks to the master's unabandonment, he taught me to read and write, and taught me the secret methods of martial arts." Dark Cloud was still lying on the ground, not looking up, thinking of the master's nurturing and teaching, he couldn't help but redden, but this time, no matter what, he couldn't choose loyalty and filial piety anymore, "But I really don't want to be a secret guard anymore, ask Master to let me leave the organization." ”

Seeing that Dark Cloud's intention to leave was unswerving, Master Dark Cloud's hands behind him clenched into fists, "If you really want to leave, the martial arts cultivation of this body must be abolished." From the kind words and persuasion at the beginning, to the current evil words and threats, they are all just to leave the dark cloud, but the dark cloud's heart to leave is too firm, even if the dark cloud master wants to abolish her martial arts, she does not hesitate to respond "good"

"Yun'er, what did you say? You're no longer a Dark Guard? Dongfang Du let go of his hand, took half a step back, and looked at the dark cloud in disbelief, "You...... How could you...... How did you get out of the Secret Guard? "In your previous life, no matter how many times I said it, you didn't want to leave the Secret Guard Organization, but in this life, I obviously didn't mention to you about leaving the organization, but you took the initiative to leave.

"Surprised?" Obviously with red eyes, he just wanted to show a smile, "I want to be by your side all the time, are you willing to let me stay by your side?" "The love in the eyes is unconcealed.

"I... I do, but... But... But..."I didn't have anything for a long time, but I always felt that something was wrong in my heart.

"As long as you're willing to let me stay on your side." Dark Cloud smiled sweetly, and the smile went straight to the bottom of his heart.

"That'...... Are you willing to stay in my palace as a palace maid? The two of them invariably remembered what Dongfang Du said when he was fifteen years old in his previous life: "Yun'er, can you not be a secret guard?" I want you to come to my palace to be a palace maid, don't worry, in my palace, you don't have to do anything, you just need to accompany me. ”

At that time, Dongfangdu had a simple idea, and he just wanted Dark Cloud to become his palace maid, accompanying him day and night. But now she is different, she will not simply want the dark clouds to be by her side, she wants wholehearted companionship and peace and security in the second half of her life. If you want to be safe and worry-free, you can only ascend to the throne, at least, the throne cannot let the east seat sit.

"No, not a palace maid, be your shadow guard." Dark Cloud is still used to guarding Dongfang Du in secret to accompany Dongfangdu, if he becomes a palace maid, he will be exposed to everyone's eyes, and some things will be difficult to do.

"Shadow Guard?" Dongfang Du was puzzled, since he had escaped from the dark guard, why did he stay in the dark, although the status of the palace maid was low, but she could be in the light and appear in front of everyone in a dignified manner.

"When you leave the palace and have your own palace, I will appear in front of everyone openly, and it will not be too late." Knowing the doubts in Dongfangdu's heart, Dark Cloud said with a light smile. But she clearly knew in her heart that what Dongfang Du wanted in this world was the supreme throne, and if she wanted to help her win the position of the prince of Dongfang Xi, she could only do it in secret.

Dongfang Du lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while, guessing what Dark Cloud was planning to do, thinking that she didn't want people to know that there was such a thing she saved, so he nodded and said, "It's okay to be my shadow guard, but you are not allowed to do anything dangerous, you have to listen to me in everything." After speaking, he hugged Dark Cloud again, "I don't need your protection. ”

Hugging, for a long time, I finally thought that no matter what organization I left, it would not be so easy, my heart instantly tightened, let go of my hand, and asked uneasily: "Yun'er, did you pay any price when you left the secret guard organization?" As he spoke, he looked his eyes up and down carefully, his nose sucked like a puppy, sniffed on the dark cloud, and did not smell any blood, and his uneasy heart was slightly relaxed.

Seeing Dongfangdu's appearance, Dark Cloud shook his head with a chuckle, "No." Why do you sniff me like a puppy? ”

"Didn't you?" As he spoke, he clasped Darkcloud's wrist.

Dark Cloud looked down at Dongfang's fingers, felt the temperature from her fingertips, and knew that she was worried that she had suffered internal injuries, so she let her take her pulse for herself. When I looked up, I saw the worry flowing between her eyebrows, and her serious face, and my heart was warm.

Dongfang Duban frowned, pressed his three fingers on the three veins of the inch ruler, the pulse was calm and powerful, and there was no sign of internal injury, so he soothed his brows and completely put down the stone in his heart.

withdrew his hand, but suddenly thought that his identity as a woman had not yet been told to Dark Cloud, hesitated slightly, and said with a smile: "Yun'er, will you take the pulse?" Why don't you take my pulse for me? As he spoke, he raised his left hand and motioned for Dark Cloud to take his pulse. No longer afraid, no more panicked, just so calmly exposed his wrist.

The pulse can be felt whether it is a man or a woman, and Dark Cloud looked at the smile on the corner of Dongfang Du's mouth, and knew in her heart that she was planning to use this euphemistic method to tell herself the identity of a woman. After a moment of silence, Dark Cloud looked down at the hand placed in front of his chest and shook his head, "I haven't learned the art of medicine yet, so I can't take the pulse." ”

"Won't it?" Dongfang Du withdrew his hand, wondering in his heart, how could he remember that the dark cloud in his previous life was a simple medicine technique, thinking about it carefully, thinking that the dark cloud in front of him was only thirteen years old, and it was very likely that he had not had time to study medicine.

"Since you won't, then I'll teach you." Separated from the secret guard organization, there is no one to teach her anything, this medical technique, she learned some from Wu Yazi, although it is shallow, but simple diseases can still be seen, and this touching the pulse of men and women is the simplest one.

The left hand was raised again, and the right hand gently held the hand of the dark cloud, pressing her three fingers on her left wrist, "The ring finger is pressed in the inch position, the middle finger is pressed in the close position, and the index finger is pressed in the ruler position." Dongfang Du raised his eyes to look at the dark clouds, met her gaze, and then said: "The man's ulnar pulse is always weak, while the woman's ulnar pulse is always strong." He smiled lightly, "Yun'er, what do you think of the pulse of my ulnar vein?" ”

Dark Cloud withdrew his hand, lowered his eyelids, and said childishly: "Medical pharmacology is broad and profound, and Yun'er will not be able to learn it for a while. Whether this pulse is weak or strong, Yun'er can't determine. Then he coquettishly said: "Du, I don't want to learn the art of medicine, can I not learn it!" Grabbed Dongfangdu's sleeve and shook it, "Is it okay?" ”

"Okay, if you don't learn, you won't learn." Dongfang Du smiled dotingly, touched Dark Cloud's head, and then said, "But Yun'er, if I were a woman, would you still like me?" He looked at the reaction on Dark Cloud's face seriously, not wanting to let go of a change in expression.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a knock on the door outside the house, accompanied by the sound of "knock knock" on the door, Banlan's eager voice said outside the door: "Second prince, it's not good, something big has happened!" ”
