Chapter Twenty-Three: Resignation
"Obey the order!"
was disturbed by what Murong Ze said, Nangong Ling's mood was also a little bad, and he pressed the corner of his forehead, looking tired, "If Brother Ze has nothing else to do, just retreat!" ”
"The minister still has something to do!" Although Murong Ze knew that Nangong Ling was a little impatient, what he was going to say next was bound to anger Nangong Ling.
Murong Ze has thought about this matter again and again, in the face of his former friend, he doesn't want to hide anything from him, and after he leaves, a pair of children will trouble him to take care of it.
Seeing this, Nangong Ling frowned slightly, and had a bad premonition in his heart, but in the face of this friend in front of him, he couldn't open his mouth to refuse, and forcibly held back the uneasiness in his heart, "Accurate!" ”
"Your Majesty, in the past two years, the minister has become more and more powerless, and the minister thinks, resign from military affairs and take his children to live a few years of ordinary life!" Murong Ze's face was calm.
Hearing this, Nangong Ling's uneasiness in his heart suddenly expanded a little, and the feeling of exhaustion disappeared, but his head ached slightly.
"Brother Ze, why are you doing this? Why did this come to fruition? Nangong Ling was puzzled and looked at the silent Murong Ze in front of him.
Murong Ze didn't say a word, which angered Nangong Ling.
"You and I have also suffered and suffered together, don't think I don't know what you're thinking! If you can't tell me why today, I'll never give up! Nangong Ling knew that Murong Ze was not telling the truth, his face was angry, and his chest rose and fell violently, as if he was not lightly angry.
Murong Ze knew that he couldn't hide it from Nangong Ling, so he was ready to tell it out.
"Your Majesty, since the departure of Yun Ran, the minister has lived like the walking corpse, if it were not for the blood and bones left by the dye, the minister would never have been born to this day, and now the children have gradually grown up, and the minister wants to take the children to live a peaceful life for a few years!" Murong Ze's face was sad, although Nangong Ling knew the reason, he didn't dare to agree.
Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Nangong Ling found that his friend since childhood, I don't know when, his temples were dyed a little frosty white, and the high-spirited spirit of his early years has long since ceased to exist, and some are just traces left by the years on his body, which adds a little vicissitudes to his heroic face, and he knows that he has suffered him all these years!
"Did you consider my feelings when you made this decision? Do you really think of me as your brother? You know that you are in a dilemma! How do you let me decide! Nangong Ling was annoyed.
Nangong Ling didn't think about the consequences of this matter, if it was for the sake of morality, let him go to the Yun Clan, and die for a lifetime; If you don't let go, your friends will inevitably resent.
He was deeply sympathetic to Murong Ze's experience, but in the face of the power of the Yun Clan, it was not possible to solve the problem with compassion alone, the power of the Yun Clan was huge enough to shake the foundation of Nanli Country, although Nangong Ling had the heart to help, but he had more than enough strength to do so, he couldn't afford to gamble with the people of Nanli because of Murong Ze alone! I can't afford to lose!
"I can't do this!" Nangong Ling had a tough attitude and refused.
"Your Majesty, for the sake of the minister's dedication to Nanli in the past few years, let the minister leave! The minister has nothing to ask for in this life, only hopes that in his lifetime, he can return to dyeing and the family will live the rest of his life peacefully! I'm satisfied! There was pain in Murong Ze's eyes, and there was hope for the future, and he knew that this matter was far from being as simple as he said.
But don't you work hard because it's not simple? That way, there will be no chance at all.
"Murong Ze! Do you know the consequences of doing so? You're going to die! I will not let you die! Neither is it allowed! Nangong Ling grabbed Murong Ze's collar and lifted him from the ground, shouting indignantly.
Murong Ze had a decadent look on his face, and in the face of Nangong Ling's actions, he didn't care at all, and he didn't make the slightest resistance.
Fortunately, there are no outsiders in the imperial study at this time, otherwise this situation will definitely be able to scare outsiders, since Nangong Ling ascended the throne, although he is domineering, but in terms of words and deeds, he has always been majestic and majestic, and he has never been so out of shape.
Murong Ze raised his eyes and looked at Nangong Ling: "The minister's intention to go has been decided, please ask the emperor for permission!" ”
Nangong Ling pushed Murong Ze away and shouted loudly, "I'm not allowed! I'm not sure! Can't you hear me? ”
Murong Ze thought that Emperor Li, as his best friend, should agree, and even understand him, how much did he pay for Nanli? How hard have you been living all these years? If others don't know, doesn't he know?
"The minister hopes that the emperor can allow the minister, and the minister doesn't want to do what he does to drag Nanli down." Murong Ze looked resolute.
Speaking of this, Nangong Ling sneered, as if he was extremely distressed: "Brother Ze, you misjudged me, I have never been afraid of you dragging me down, if I am not the lord of a country, I am willing to go deep into the hinterland of the Yun Clan with you, even if I die in a foreign land, I have no complaints!" ”
Although Murong Ze was still silent, he was not moved in his heart, it was a lie.
"Back then, if you hadn't rescued me with my sister-in-law, I would have been dead long ago! From then on, my life will be yours! Brother Ke Ze, you only have a sister-in-law in your heart, but you have ever thought about Nanli to these thousands of people! How innocent their lives were! Speaking of this, Nangong Ling's expression was a little frustrated, and he felt helpless about his inability to act.
At this time, Murong Ze seemed to be reminiscing about the past, and his eyes were empty.
After a long time, Murong Ze seemed to have just woken up from his memories.
"The minister knows that this matter is very dangerous, and the minister just wants to go alone!" Murong Ze said indiscriminately.
"Brother Ze, be sober! Have you ever thought that if you go to the Cloud Clan alone, if something happens, what will Xiaoqi Xiaoyun do? Do you want them to lose their mothers and fathers? You've only thought about yourself, have you ever taken their feelings into account! Nangong Ling's face was indignant, his fists clenched at his side, trying his best to restrain himself, he was afraid that if he was not careful, he would rush forward and wake up the stubborn person in front of him.
"My Murong Ze has been worthy of the sky and the earth all my life, but for Xiaoqi Xiaoyun, I am destined to be ashamed of them in this life!" Murong Ze muttered to himself.
Nangong Ling Muran, it seems that all his previous words were in vain, because the person in front of him didn't even listen to a word: "Okay!" Since you have no will, I will not force you to stay! However, I want you to garrison the border city for Nanli for another three years, and after three years, I will let you go! ”
Murong Ze, who heard Nangong Ling's promise, stood up from the ground.
"Obey the order!" After saying that, he turned and left.
Nangong Ling watched the lonely back fade away, and let out a long sigh.
In the three-year period, it seems that I will start preparing for it!
Murong Ze, who returned to the Zhenguo Marquis's Mansion, plunged into the study and never came out for a long time......
