Chapter Eighty-Six: Just a Child

Murong Jue's cold gaze softened a little when it touched Luo Xiaoran, but his words were still harsh, "As a royal family, you are impetuous, short-sighted, afraid of hardship, tired, and don't want to forge ahead, how to deal with yourself in the future." You can still protect him now, ten years from now, twenty years from now? Will he be able to ask you for shelter with a shy face, or will you be able to completely arrange his inactive life? ”

Those words pierced Mu Xian's heart solidly.

He looked up in disbelief, a mist quickly accumulating in his clear eyes.

He knew that the royal brother was for his good, so he had always been strict with him, but ...... He never knew that the imperial brother actually saw him like this, they weren't...... Brother? Why would the Imperial Brother say such hurtful words......

He is not serious, he is lazy, but he is already trying hard to catch up with the royal brother. The imperial brother was too perfect, but he had no one to teach him how to become stronger, until he met the imperial brother.

He also needs time to grow up......

Luo Xiaoran subconsciously wanted to cover Mu Xian's ears, but felt that Murong would never harm this younger brother. It's just that those words are too hurtful, like sharp needles, words and holes, piercing people all over their bodies.

"He's just a ......" blurted out the word "child" and paused, in the royal family full of power temptation and calculation, how could the warm word of the child, she raised her head, looked at Murong Jue, and said a little weakly: "The child who was delayed, Mu Xian is kind-hearted, and he also knows how to care about me......"

Yin Xiu smiled beside him, "That's just that you are kind to him, and you are a celebrity by His Majesty's side, Miss Luo Xiaoran." The last four words were bitten by him very clearly, as if reminding Luo Xiaoran of his identity.

The man in his arms winced.

At that moment, it seemed to be rooted in Luo Xiaoran's heart.

Children who grow up in the royal family avoid family affection like snakes and scorpions, use everything that is useful to themselves, and give up all useless feelings, which should be the heart and cruelty that children who really grow up in the royal family should have.

Just like at the beginning, Mu Xian only used her, used her to enter the Forbidden Palace, and used her to get the name Mu Xian...... It's just that she is too eager to get in touch with someone who doesn't have so many deep calculations, and she also sympathizes with this child who has gradually grown up and become strong because of her. Subconsciously, she knew that the bond between her and Mu Xian would not be too simple, but she was still a little uncomfortable in front of these bloody truths.

Mu Xian, he was not wrong.

If he doesn't use Su Qingce, he will always be a person who doesn't even have a name.

She was also willing to get close to him, and was used by him as his shield.

For Yin Xiu's sharp question, she smiled faintly, that smile seemed to be a ripple on the surface of a calm lake, quiet and long, "I am kind to whom, that is my heart is good, and if I calculate it so clearly, it is not true goodness but hypocrisy." Besides, in life, if you have to calculate these favors, considerations, and favors so clearly, it will be too tiring. "She's just an outsider who borrows Su Qingce's body, maybe one day she wakes up from sleep, or she bumps her head, she can knock herself back to modern times, the time they get together is so short, she really doesn't have so much time to calculate those things.

Moreover, her heart is quite big.

A Muxian, she still has it in her belly.

"That's a good point." Murong shook his head, there seemed to be approval in his eyes, Luo Xiaoran always showed a fresh side every time, which made him feel surprised, he also liked such a woman with his own opinions, but he didn't like the flash of loneliness when she said 'life is alive', that sense of alienation, just like the expression she showed when she took a self-portrait in the palace in the mirror.

The words changed abruptly: "If even I am too lenient with him, it will only create him to become weaker and more opportunistic, and who will be able to discipline him in the long run?" ”

Discipline?

Hearing this, Luo Xiaoran quickly lifted his eyelids and glanced at Murong Jue.

She didn't believe it, Murong Jue just used the word casually.

Mu Xian, who was young and had his own plans in his heart, was shocked by Murong Jie's initial words, but he was shocked by his last sentence. The tears he had endured for a long time rolled out of his eyes, "Brother Huang...... It's me who can't do it...... You shouldn't be complacent and unconscious because of your royal brother...... Sorry ......"

Luo Xiaoran didn't know if these words should come from the mouth of a child, Murong decided the deep meaning, and whether he understood them all.

However, at this moment, Luo Xiaoran was moved.

Not...... Although most of it is because Mu Xian's crying scene is too touching, there are a lot of snot and tears, and he wipes it with his arm like a child, which makes a face, and he doesn't stop the tears and snot continue to flow out.

And Murong never likes warm dramas, and he doesn't like others crying in front of him-

Naturally, except for Luo Xiaoran.

When she cried under Murong Du last night, he listened to it very pleasantly.

Murong Jue still punished Mu Xian mercilessly, and mercilessly reprimanded him for his behavior in the past few months.

Luo Xiaoran comforted Mu Xian, but felt that the effect was not good, so he gave up. After returning to the imperial tent for some breakfast, he followed Murong Du to the training ground.

There are troops stationed in the border state all the year round, and there is a comfortable and spacious general's mansion, and the emperor should also go to the general's mansion to live. And Murong Jue still had his own Qin Mansion in the border state when he was still the king of Qin, after being promoted to the emperor, the Qin Palace's mansion was vacant, this time the imperial car should have stayed in the Qin Palace, everything was ready, how do you know that after Murong Jue and his party arrived in the border state, they led the army to level the border after a short rest, repelled the western extension, and took advantage of the victory to pursue Hu County and recover it.

Since then, Hu County, which had left Beishang for decades, finally broke away from the Xiyan people, known as barbarians, and returned to Beishang.

At present, the large army has returned to garrison the border state, and the small army is still camped near Hu County, and Murong Jue is still in this camp. One is to establish the prestige of the monarch and intimidate away the people of Xiyan, and the other is to settle the hearts of the people.

In Luo Xiaoran's cognition, Hu County is the size of Beijing, originally located on the border of Beishang and Xiyan, and the people are struggling to make a living, so it stands to reason that no one wants to come to occupy such a barren place.

Just a few decades ago, a miracle medicine was refined on the Sendai Mountains to restore a person's youthful appearance, and the primer of this flavor medicine is a plant found only in Hu County, and since then, Hu County has become a fragrant bait and coveted by neighboring countries. Decades later, these past events have gradually been covered with a layer of mystery, making it impossible to distinguish between the real and the fake.
