The gentle night sky gently pulled up the huge curtain, making all the noise disappear from the ears of Su Mu and the others, leaving only each other's heartbeats still mottled.

Outside the luxurious suites on the top floor of the hotel is a comfortable rooftop.

On the rooftop, wooden tables and chairs are stocked with berries and snacks, as well as a pot of fruit tea that has been warmed up.

Fruit tea is actually a characteristic that originated in the south of the mainland.

Compared to the empire, which simply enjoyed the clear tea soup, and the Papal States, which loved to drink alcoholic beverages, fruit tea, a drink mixed with sweet and sour taste and a little jerky tea, really made people look forward to the atmosphere of this night.

Su Tong didn't know whether he was shy or what, but at this time, he was standing by the female wall on the edge of the rooftop, looking at the night scene of the small city with the glittering lights with some distraction.

At this moment, Su Mu gently took a shawl and put it on for Su Tong, and then gently hugged Su Tong from behind, and asked with some curiosity:

"What are you thinking?"

But Su Tong's answer was obviously beyond Su Mu's expectations.

Under such a starry night, what Su Tong opened was not a sweet night talk, but an indescribable soft sigh:

"I remember when I was very young, the eldest brother was determined to become a peerless powerhouse, and he had no interest in military power at all. And the second emperor brother is just a teenager who likes to read, and treating people gently is the first thing he learned from books. As for myself, I enjoy the pampering of my father, and truly live the life of a princess that others envy. ”

From the first day Su Mu met Su Tong, Su Tong was trying to escape from the country that once gave birth to him.

And now, after all kinds of hardships, this escape seems to have finally succeeded.

But in fact, looking back, if not some despair that goes deep into the bone marrow...... Who wants to really run away from the places where they lived, and who wants to really stay away from those who share a common memory?

"My father was more ambitious than anyone could have imagined, and people today can't imagine how amazingly cohesive the empire was. ”

In fact, from the very beginning, Su Tong knew that the male lord in his memory was completely different from the old man who was happy to see his children fighting each other now.

"When the father still has the heart to conquer the world, of course the father will not let any of his children fight, and an absolutely unified and cohesive empire is the prerequisite for further progress. ”

"But in today's empire, although the residual power of the father is still shrouded, but now the father who has been immersed in the darkness for too long has finally lost the sharpness of the year. ”

When Su Tong said this, he turned his head slightly and looked at Su Mu's eyes very seriously.

Then he was extremely sure, and said frankly to Su Mu:

"It is undoubtedly a matter of course to say whether my father has the ambition to unify the continent, but whether the empire has the courage and strength to do so today is already a matter of great debate. ”

"So compared to the Empire, what really deserves your attention and vigilance now is actually the most strange and mysterious side of the Papal States to us. ”

"Whether it's their targeting of the Dark Bards, or their revelations of Imperial ambitions, they seem to be beguiling their own minds. ”

But what kind of mind...... Is it worth hiding so hard?"

......

Su Tong's words, although he analyzed the past of the empire, saw the future of the continent.

As Su Tong said, this series of behaviors of the Papal States inevitably seems a little too inexplicable, and it can even be said that it is a little too lenient in managing things.

The dark minstrours in the shadows are obviously trying to maintain their influence on the continent, so they spare no effort to support the Chosen One of various countries in order to consolidate their existence.

And all the actions of the empire, on the one hand, are to ensure the stability of the imperial power, and on the other hand, they also hide the ambition that has not been realized, which is naturally a reasonable act.

As for the federal side, excavating Su Mu as an idol of the federation is naturally preparing for a peaceful rise, but trying to win with systems and ideas.

Only the Papal States, which are dominating the west of the continent, seem to be so high-sounding in their every action, as if they are fighting for the so-called stability of the continent.

However, in this world, is there really a mind that is completely undetermined by interests?

Su Tong's concern has obviously been around for a long time.

In fact, if you look back, you can find that every contact between the Papal States and Su Mu has an extremely clear purpose, and even has a very definite effect.

Bastion's first appearance directly caused Su Mu to worry about the Dark Bard, and thus successfully concluded an alliance with the Papal States.

Later, Bastion appeared for the second time, but it directly pierced the still undying ambition of the empire, so that Su Mu could only give up living in peace with the empire.

As for the third contact after that, while helping Su Mu rescue Qin Wuving, he also put Su Mu in the terrifying Ancestral Dragon Temple with his backhand.

In the great changes in the royal capital that had just passed, the Papal States immediately showed absolute sincerity, erasing the resentment in Su Mu's heart, and on the other hand, once again making the empire and the federation evenly matched among the three kingdoms of Tianzhu.

Every action of the Papal States seems to have a very reasonable reason.

But when all the actions come together, it is full of incomprehensible coincidences and weirdness.

"The really clever liars, they always tell the unquestionable truth, and the really terrible conspirators, they always put everything on the surface. ”

Su Tong said in a calm tone, and said an even more solemn guess.

In today's Papal States, everything is too above board, so behind their calmness, there is always a more disturbing unpredictability.

And the reason why Su Tong said so much was not that he needed Su Mu to be hostile to the Papal State, but just wanted to ask Su Mu with concern:

"So...... Do you really have a picture of how to deal with each side of the Federation, the Empire, the Dark Bards, and the most hidden of all in the Papal States?"

......

Su Tong dispelled the darkness in the depths of the continent little by little, but in fact, it was because of the love in his heart.

For Su Mu, Su Tong obviously knows more than Lu Xi.

"You have far more talent than ordinary people, but you don't have an absolutely cold will, and you have a lot of resources to send, but you are only willing to open your heart to yourself. ”

"Even in some ways, your view of the world is out of step with most people's, your view of good and evil, your values, your view of love...... It's all very different from this world!"

Speaking of which, Su Tong finally remembered Su Mu's stubbornness about love.

In the midst of worry, there is a hint of shyness and joy.

"But, my dearest, you are too kind and too romantic...... It's not that you're not decisive enough in killing, or that you're still merciful to your enemies. ”

"It's just...... You still have too much love and tenderness for the world. ”

Su Mu didn't expect that Su Tong would come to such a conclusion. In a way, Su Tong does know Su Mu better than Su Mu himself.

The world in this brain hole is, after all, conceived in Su Mu's accumulated fantasies, how can Su Mu not love everything in this world?

Even whether it is the Empire, the Federation, the Papal States, or even every secret buried in this world, there are those "Su Mu" left behind.

For such a world that satisfies all of Su Mu's fantasies and is connected to Su Mu from the bones, how can Su Mu be ruthless to this world?

......

Fortunately, Su Mu's tenderness to the world is not something that Su Tong wants to reverse, and it is even the reason why Su Tong fell in love with Su Mu.

"But then you have to be more cautious about approaching every power. ”

Su Tong suddenly turned around and lay on Su Mu's chest, feeling the heartbeat of Su Mu and the world connected to each other, and then continued:

"Although the Papal States show concern for the world, it is only an excuse for them to hide their true purpose. But in fact, the one who really wants to do this is undoubtedly dear yourself. ”

"Now that you've decided to be gentle with the world, anything that tries to break down the chaos that plunges the world into chaos can only be your enemy. ”

After speaking of this, Su Tong finally returned to the most practical problem in front of him from those grand and dark propositions:

"Actually, I don't care what the world we're in is like!"

Su Tong was a little indifferent, and once again threw out a rather rebellious word.

"With our current status and position, and the power behind you and gathered together, we can still have a good enough life in the midst of any chaos. ”

Su Tong's self-confidence is obviously based on her insight into human nature.

As long as Su Mu and Su Tong are willing, with their ability and power, even if they join the empire, join the Papal States, or even simply break away from the three major countries to set up their own doors, they can stand well in this world.

"But if the world is really in turmoil, even if we can navigate against the current, we will not be able to protect everyone around us. ”

Su Tong said softly, this sentence seemed to be a little unnecessary, but he buried his face deeper in Su Mu's chest. And her next thin voice like a mosquito chirped revealed another beauty in her heart:

"But only a world that is gentle enough can allow everyone to live gently...... Even if our descendants are not so smart or so powerful, they can still live a very good life!"
