Maybe there will come a time when I will only be the head of the house

Perhaps, in the future, I will only be ......!

Chu Hao put down his chopsticks and looked at his father, he was silent for a long time, his mood was indescribable, some were relieved, some were uncomfortable, and more were sad. Chu Mu's words, he understood, and understood very well, and he was also a little uncomfortable, but he knew that his father was such a person, a person who was colder than anyone else.

If he really made a choice between the Chu family and his son's life, Chu Hao had no doubt that Chu Mu's choice would be the Chu family.

Just like the last time in the ancestral hall, when there was a rift between father and son for the first time, Chu Mu once said: "You are my son, but also the descendant of the Chu family, I am your father, but I am also the head of the Chu family, how will happen in the future, I hope you will take the Chu family first, even if I am in danger, as long as it is beneficial to the Chu family, you will not take care of me, but if you do something dangerous to the Chu family, you will not blame, blame...... Don't blame your father for being ruthless. ”

The words of the day are still in my ears, and these words are also these words, constantly reminding Chu Hao how to behave and do things, and tell him about the responsibilities he has to bear, so I have to say that although those words are ruthless, they are also the words of a father who leads by example to his son.

Chu Hao never doubted that Chu Mu's feelings for him were like making a choice for his son's life, and Chu Hao also fully believed that Chu Mu would choose his own death in exchange for his son's life.

In the previous life, it was like this.

And that's it, Chu Hao suddenly felt embarrassed, and even a little guilty, he often felt that he already had a lot of responsibilities and burdens, but if he really compared to the man in front of him, he suddenly found that his own ones were at best just children's private affairs.

Compared with himself, Chu Mu's life is really for the family, for the human race of the royal city, and for his son, he has been seriously injured for more than ten years, in fact, he could have stepped down as the head of the family and left this state to find an opportunity to recover, but he has been sitting in that position, worrying and working.

If he hadn't worked hard, he was only in his forties, how could his temples be gray, you know, at this age, just like it was said in the Five Cities Trial, before fifty, it was just the starting time for a cultivator, just a young man.

And if he is greedy for power and enjoys using the position of the head of the Chu family to call for wind and rain in the royal city, then I am afraid that if Chu Hao is killed, Chu Hao will not believe it, because he knows that in his previous life, under the almost unanimous construction of the Chu family elder group, Chu Mu did not make any moves, and in line with the idea of believing in the new head of the family, he leisurely abdicated.

So all things considered, it can only be said that the man in front of him is very stupid and bitter, a person who never does things for himself, but tries his best to do things.

Thinking of this, Chu Hao looked at Chu Mu, his face was serious, and said, "Father, if there is anything that needs a child, father can just command." ”

Because Chu Hao's style of acting is similar to Chu Mu, and he is also the same stupid and stupid, so at this moment, thinking of the suffering of the man in front of him, Chu Hao was suddenly confused, and his heart was thinking about how to share it, or how to do it, so that the man in front of him could get a little bit of ease.

"Good. Chu Mu nodded, then looked at Chu Hao with a serious face, reached out and knocked his bowl with chopsticks, and said, "Eat first, and then talk about things, it just so happens that my father also has ......."

After a pause, he smiled and said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense, if you keep talking, you really have to drink cold porridge." ”

Chu Hao was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and while wondering if his laughter was a little low, he reached out and gave Chu Mu a chopstick dish, and then lowered his head and ate it.

Chu Mu was slightly stunned, and then he also lowered his head and ate.

For a while, the entire huge hall was a little quiet, except for the occasional sound of drinking porridge.

This atmosphere is very quiet and harmonious, but the two people who drink porridge know that the atmosphere in the future, like the autumn rain outside the house, will become bigger and bigger, more and more depressing, and if you don't think about it, it will attract a monstrous flood.

The atmosphere that followed, I don't know whether the father and son were deliberate or unintentional, they didn't say anything again, just occasionally sandwiched a side dish with chopsticks for each other, and then looked at each other and smiled, and continued to solve the breakfast.

But soon, this atmosphere did not last long, after all, it was just a porridge and side dish, even if you deliberately tried to keep this atmosphere, it would be over soon.

Chu Mu didn't call someone to clean up, just looked at his son quietly, and couldn't help but think of the scene from a few months ago in his mind.

A few months ago, he was still a rebellious teenager who didn't call himself his father for some reason, but a few months later, he was able to enjoy a rare and luxurious father-son relationship.

It's just that......

The autumn rain outside the window was already very heavy, just like the heavy snow that came suddenly a few days ago, and it didn't look like the weather that should come out at this time.

The rain at this time was like a storm.

However, although it is not in season, it is the same as the snow, which is in line with the current atmosphere.

"What do you think about the things in front of you?" Chu Mu retracted his gaze from the window and looked at Chu Hao and asked.

"For example?" Chu Hao thought about it, or decided to know what Chu Mu meant in front of him first?

Chu Mu smiled and said lightly: "For example, the trial of the five cities, such as the thoughts of the state lord, or the fate of the five cities. ”

Chu Hao was stunned for a moment, his heart was awe-inspiring, he knew that this was Chu Mu testing him.

Although he didn't know why Chu Mu didn't ask him how to recover first, but he suddenly tested him first, Chu Hao still thought about it and said: "According to the child, the five-city trial is just a disguise, but it is actually a conspiracy. ”

When he said this, he lifted his mind and looked at Chu Mu's eyes, not letting go of every change in the eyes of his eyes, which was very fast, and he was disappointed.

Chu Mu's eyes didn't change at all, they were still so plain.

However, although he was disappointed, it also gave Chu Hao hope, he organized the language again, and said tentatively: "The child thinks that saying that it is a trial is just a killing field, and it is also a practice of exhausting the young generation of elites in the five cities. ”

"Oh?!"

Chu Mu was finally slightly surprised, and a trace of history flashed in his eyes, and then he squinted slightly, looked at Chu Hao, and asked, "How do you say this?"

"You must know that as the lord of the state, as the guardian of the Terrans, his duty is to protect the Terrans. ”

"If you say this, I'm afraid not only will your father not be able to protect you, but even the Chu family will be in great trouble. ”

As he spoke, Chu Mu's eyes were full of history, and he looked like he could overflow at any time.

Obviously, Chu Mu still strongly agrees with Chu Hao's words.

It's just that in the same way, he also has a trace of doubt, that is, Xiao Li, the lord of the state, why did he do this?

For some reason, he vaguely felt that his son, a sixteen-year-old boy, seemed to know the truth.

"Father's ......"

Chu Hao got up, his face immediately became very serious, and he looked around again, and when he saw that the door was closed, and although the window was ajar, the sound of the rain was enough to cover the sound in the house, he looked at Chu Mu and whispered: "The child is just saying an assumption, if he is wrong, please don't blame the child." ”

"Say it. Chu Mu nodded, his face was also very serious.

Obviously, I don't know when, the child in my mind has grown up, and it has reached the point where I can discuss things with myself and let myself listen carefully.

It's just that the next moment, when he heard the words from Chu Hao's mouth, even if he was mentally prepared, his face changed greatly.

"Father, what if Xiao Li has already become a traitor to the Terran race, and then uses this opportunity to wipe out the Terran elite?"
