Chapter 146: Imperial Secrets
After Lu Xi hurriedly explained what she was going to say, she came together as she did without hesitation, and left directly without being verbose at this moment.
Only Su Tong, who was only covered with a thin quilt, was left, and Su Mu, who didn't dare to look at Su Tong at all.
Lu Xiruo didn't emphasize it in particular, the magic circle on Su Tong's body was very easy to be erased by clothes, and Su Mu might not be as embarrassed as he was now.
After all, in Su Mu's cognition, girls seem to wear pajamas when they sleep.
But as Lu Xi explained to Su Mu very seriously, he needed to keep Su Tong in his current state, and he couldn't easily let his clothes erase the Qi Gathering Array.
Then the truth about Bo is also so obvious.
Sure enough, as Lu Xi left in a hurry, the bedroom was filled with infinite embarrassment and charm.
Su Mu even realized that he thought that Su Tong was ruddy because he had paid a lot of physical strength, but in fact, it was because of the shyness in Su Tong's heart at this time.
The thin quilt like a curtain is actually impossible not to reverie.
Even Su Mu, who was already familiar enough with Su Tong, could only pretend to look at the paintings on the wall indifferently at this time, deliberately avoiding the meeting of eyes with Su Tong.
After all, if it was Su Mu, the eyes of the two of them really had to collide with each other. In fact, Su Mu didn't know what to say to alleviate the embarrassment.
However, at the same time when Su Mu stiffened his body and didn't dare to look at Su Tong at all.
I don't know whether it was schadenfreude or a slightly smug snicker, but it actually drilled into Su Mu's ears so tactfully.
And before Su Mu could question this, Su Tong's voice was still mixed with a little shyness, but it continued to sound in Su Mu's ears:
"I thought in your eyes, I didn't even have the most basic attraction for women!"
There is no doubt that although Su Mu is now Su Tong's fiancé, he has never taken the initiative to try to become closer to Su Tong.
This made Su Tong, who was obviously just making a contract with each other, was still confused about his charm after all.
It wasn't until he saw Su Mu's embarrassment at this time that Su Tong understood:
Su Mu couldn't detect Su Tong's beauty as a girl, he was just deliberately avoiding this ambiguity, and he never crossed the appropriate distance.
But thinking of this, Su Tong felt a little gloomy again while being slightly happy.
Because of the reason why Su Mu always kept a distance from himself, in fact, Su Tong was also aware of it.
"So、You like her?"
......
"So、You like her?"
In the absence of a preface and afterword to support it, the dialogue that Su Tong suddenly said seemed to be so beginningless and endless, and it was even more confusing.
But the strange thing is that when this sentence fell lightly from Su Tong's mouth.
Su Mu not only understood Su Tong's question, but even instantly understood the premise of Su Tong's question.
The "she" in Su Tong's words naturally refers to Lu Xi, who has just left...... The academy tutor with starry eyes, but stubbornness mixed with cuteness.
And at this moment, Su Tong, the reason why she asked such an inappropriate question is undoubtedly the same because:
Su Mu's longing for Lu Xi is now also subtly born in Su Tong's heart.
Between Su Tong and Su Mu, the relationship that obviously only originated from a contract has not known when and where it started, and it has already made Su Tong have a different kind of emotion in a trance.
And in this way, the atmosphere in the room has become more and more strange.
made Su Mu, who didn't know how to speak, fell into a more speechless situation again.
Whether it is in front of Su Tong, admitting his inner yearning for Lu Xi, or continuing to talk about him left and right, avoiding Su Tong's straightforward questions.
Either of the two methods will not be the best answer for Su Mu today!
Fortunately, Su Tong was lying on the couch, and it was only because of the charming atmosphere of the previous moment that she suddenly didn't even think of herself, and blurted out the question that revealed her heart.
And at this time, when Su Tong came back to her senses, the crimson like a cloud had already shrouded her.
So in a panic, he didn't even wait for Su Mu to sort out the wording of his answer, but Su Tong had already reversed the topic stiffly and said it very forcefully...... The secrets that Su Mu had hoped to help her share:
"When I first met you, I said that I came to the Science Federation to prevent the supporters behind me from being purged. Although I have not hidden anything from you on this point, this is indeed the purpose of my coming to the Federation. But by now, as you may have guessed, this wasn't my only purpose in coming to the Federation. ”
As Su Tong suddenly shifted the content of the conversation to the true purpose that was filled with huge shadows. The strange atmosphere that permeated the room finally began to dissipate.
Therefore, Su Tong naturally continued:
"The way the Longtuo Empire chooses the prince is usually carried out according to the respect and humility of the eldest and youngest, as long as the heir of the emperor and queen is born, it is equivalent to the heavens have made a choice. Generally speaking, as long as there is not much turmoil within the empire, there will be no other heirs who have any illusions. ”
However, the sad thing is that the emperor and queen of the Longtuo Empire did not give birth to any children for the monarch. And for some other reason, the monarch did not canonize the mother of any of his children as the new emperor. In other words, in the current entire Longtuo Empire, there is actually no one who has a definite right of inheritance. ”
Or you can also think...... In fact, all the princes and heirs of the country may become the last heirs!"
......
The imperial secrets that Su Tong suddenly uncovered made the pink charm disappear completely after all.
The only thing left in the room was the turmoil of the battle for succession.
In other words, in fact, the person sitting at the top, not only is he unwilling to confirm that identity, but he is also happy to see the successors compete with each other. ”
Although Su Mu deliberately avoided the title of that person, he did not mention what everyone was competing for.
But the speculation in his mouth is actually so blatant.
"Yes, all together with his acquiescence. With the covert support of the supreme ruler of the empire, the family or consortium behind each imperial concubine can only strive for the possibility of their own success. After all, this level of power vortex is as long as you get caught in it...... Then it's either glory or no bones!"
Speaking of which, Su Tong, who was already in a state of weakness, inevitably revealed his exhaustion from the heart.
That kind of sad look was the despair and despair and sinking when Su Mu first saw Su Tong:
"Today's Emperor Longtuo, he has a total of five heirs. In addition to me, who has no inheritance rights as a woman, they are the emperor's eldest son Su Zheng, the second son Su Tan, the third prince Su Can, who is the same twin as me, and the little prince Su Kun, who was pledged to the Pope's state. ”
And among the four people who have the possibility, the emperor's eldest son, Su Zheng, is the eldest, and in his early years, he had quelled countless border turmoil with the army, so he received the full support of the imperial military. ”
The second prince Su Tan is just the opposite, the clan behind him is the head of the civil officials of the empire, so he naturally has the support of this civil official system. ”
As for the youngest Su Kun, although there is no huge power behind him, if there is anyone who is most likely to sit in the position of the queen of God among all the princes' mothers, there is no doubt that only the most favored Su Kun's mother. ”
"So the only one who doesn't seem to have the slightest competitiveness is the one who not only does not have the support of a huge force, but also has a difficult time getting the status of an orthodox successor...... My naïve brother Su Can. ”
Su Tong said as he looked at the northeast window with a slight sarcasm.
It was as if she could look through the sunlight outside the window, extending her gaze all the way to the ancient empire that gave birth to her.
Then Su Tong slowly said what really made her so sad:
"I think Su Can has already mentioned to you that among all the children of the imperial monarch, I have always favored me the only one who is a woman. However, this favor itself is obviously not as pure as it seems. ”
"Because behind Su Can, there are no chips that can be used, so in order to let Su Can also get involved in this quagmire...... My father's favor for me is the reason why Su Can will also be regarded as a competitor!"
