Chapter 31: Loyalty

"Niangniang, my subordinates are willing to swear with their lives, Your Majesty has nothing to do with Concubine Lian, that night in Minghua Palace, Concubine Lian drugged in the wine, Your Majesty studied medicine in Shayun Yuan, he knew the smell as soon as he smelled it, but he took you in order to have the heart, so he planned to cooperate with Concubine Lian Niangniang to act. ”

Mu Yan pulled the corners of his mouth and sneered, he couldn't listen to this inexplicable reason at all.

"Why did he get angry with me? It was he who brought me back from the border city, and it was he who kept saying that he would be together forever and would not leave me. Tell me, what kind of reasons does he have for grievances, and what excuses does he have for wanting to drive me away?"

Yuluo was helpless, he couldn't help it, his heart was crossed, thinking that even if His Majesty didn't allow it, he would have to say it. It's just a cheap life, and you should repay Your Majesty's love over the years.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he ...... In fact, it's been out of sight for a long time......"

Mu Yan was stunned, "What do you mean by this?"

"When I was looking for Niangniang, in order to save Hongluan, His Majesty and Niangniang went to find medicinal herbs. Later, the herb that His Majesty brought back was called Dragon's Blood Grass. The mother didn't look closely, it was flowering. But pollen is highly toxic and cannot be inhaled. So His Majesty never let Niangniang touch it, but took it back and fed Hongluan directly. It may have been that His Majesty had paid attention, but the imperial doctor said that the pollen may have entered the eye, which caused the eye blindness. ”

"No one knows about this except the Imperial Doctor and me. Our ambush was arranged by the second prince. Concubine Lian was also instigated by him to enter the palace, and His Majesty didn't want you to worry about it, so he kept it a secret from you. When you came to Night City to celebrate the old night king, the second prince plotted a rebellion in Kyoto, and it was a letter from Concubine Lian. That's because after Minghua Palace Niangniang left, His Majesty exposed Concubine Lian's conspiracy at that time. He told Concubine Lian that if he wanted to live, he would pretend that he didn't know anything and cooperate with the second prince to continue acting. Concubine Lian hates Niangniang, but she will not be stupid enough to risk her life. ”

"Your Majesty let you stay in Night City, not because he is ruthless, not because he is tired of you, but because he is afraid that you will see his incompetent appearance. Niangniang, you are so smart, why can't you see that you are Your Majesty's life. He gave you his life, how could he not love you?"

"On the day of parting, His Majesty vomited a lot of blood in the carriage, and after returning to the palace, he couldn't support it at all and collapsed. After the imperial doctor finally pulled him back from the ghost gate, his eyes were completely blind. But he is the king of a country, and he has a heavy responsibility, and he has to be responsible for the people. So he would let me walk the part of the road where I sat on the dragon chair every night, and I got familiar with it step by step, and I didn't let anyone help me when I hit and fell, and finally figured it out before I went back to the court. ”

In my impression, Yuluo has always been silent. It's rare to say so many things like today. As if he was so afraid that Mu Yan didn't believe it, he tried his best to explain. If Shen Li buried in his heart and refused to say anything, let him say it all.

"Niangniang, do you know how powerful Your Majesty is? There are so many civil and military officials, and no one has noticed his strangeness. In the evening, I read it to him, and then I pointed out the place to him, and he groped with his hands, slowly writing one word at a time. In this way, he never said bitterness, never complained, and never even lost his temper. ”

"Niangniang, Yuluo has been by His Majesty's side for so many years, and the first time I was worried was that you were pressed in the underwater cave of Xuanwu Mountain. At that time, His Majesty just didn't say anything, and still lived his old life as if he was nothing. But outsiders don't know, I know, and the seventh master can also see it. He didn't care at all, but he cared too much, so he even lost himself. ”

"Niangniang, you may not know until now, the fact that you are still alive is such an important thing for the third master. Otherwise, the third master, who has always been calm and self-controlled, will not take risks alone and break into the border city alone. He's scared, afraid that that person isn't you at all, so he can't wait to make sure. ”

"The second worry is now. It is said to be worry, but in fact, it is more explicit, it should be fear. Yuluo dared to say a disrespectful word, if it weren't for being the emperor, His Majesty would have vomited blood, and he would have already wanted to live. Because he lost his life, he couldn't live at all. ”

"Mother, you should know by now. The seventh master is still alive, and His Majesty risked his life to save him. But at that time, there were wars and strife, and the matter of the seventh master's life could not be known to outsiders, not to mention that you were still unconscious. He secretly sent the Seventh Master away and hid it from everyone, including you. ”

"He'd rather be misunderstood by you than tell you the truth. It's because if you know that the Seventh Master is still alive, according to your temperament, you must go and see what is going on, otherwise you won't believe it. After all, it is a person who has lost his breath, and no one will believe it when he says that he has come back to life. But you've just recovered from a serious illness, and you've just lost your child, so you can't afford the long journey. Your Majesty is afraid that something will happen to you, so he has been hiding it. Later, I never told you that I wanted to wait for the seventh master to recover and take him back, so that he would naturally get together with you, and maybe he could give you a surprise. But he couldn't wait for that day......"

"Niangniang, Yuluo knows that along the way, you have suffered a lot of injuries, and your heart is also bitter. But...... Your Majesty, he's just a mortal...... If you don't even know about it, if you don't even feel sorry for you, how long can he last alone? If he leaves him without you, then how long can he live? If you think that everything should be borne by him alone, then why did you have to entangle with him in the first place?"

It doesn't matter if it's selfish and indifferent, or it's ruthless or unjust. At least he is still the third master, at least he will live well. But you and the Seventh Master have to intrude into his life, and then let him bear all the consequences alone.

"Niangniang, even if it is Your Majesty, Yuluo has never begged him for anything. But today, Yuluo begs you, please go back. Go back and see him, go back and save him. Along the way, Niangniang may have been confused, or she may feel tired and tired. His Majesty knows all this, he is confused because of your confusion, and troubled because of your exhaustion. But all the while, he never thought of giving up on you. There's no reason, probably just reluctant. But now that he can't see it, he feels that he can't even take care of himself, how can he protect you? That's why he will leave you, and he will want to fulfill you and the Seventh Master. ”

"Wood and me?"

Shen Yan returned from fishing, and he didn't know how long he had been listening. When I heard this, I finally couldn't help but speak out.

"If he wants to make it, why would he have gone earlier? It's amazing that he's blind? I've died once! He doesn't say if he can't do it, you let him come and ask the child in the wood's belly if he agrees." ”
