The night was dark, and there was silence under the capital, without the hustle and bustle of the crowd during the day, leaving only empty streets and cool breezes, which made people feel chilled. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Occasionally, a patrolling force passed through the alley, lined up like dead wood, and several soldiers were listless and pale, reflecting the prosperous decline of the capital of Mengyuan, which seemed to indicate that a dynasty would eventually be annihilated in the world......

However, not everyone is full of despair. From the direction of Chatai Wangfu, the two of them came together, although the night road was cold and lonely, but the two of them leaned on each other, not only did not have the slightest sense of loneliness, but added a little warmth on the way back.

The two of them were Sun Yun and Du Juan, who left from the Chatai Palace, and rushed back to the dart bureau overnight, not only at the behest of their father, but also full of expectations to return home, and the two of them were still happy and excited for a long time......

"Come, Juan'er, slow down......" Du Juan walked on crutches, his legs and feet were inconvenient, Sun Yun comforted while supporting him.

"I'm okay Brother Yun, now I have more legs and feet than before......" Du Juan smiled slightly, making a capable appearance - in fact, Du Juan is very happy to be like this now, after all, it has been a long time since he snuggled up with Sun Yun alone, and the two of them spoke happily to each other, without the pressure from family conflicts, and without carrying too many heavy missions......

"Click......click" However, a patrolling force happened to pass by the roadway.

Now the court is in turmoil, the capital is weighing the chaos, the people are panicked all day long, and the situation is tense to the extreme. Afraid that he would get involved in the incident, and that he might be suspicious when he walked in the city at night, the cuckoo deliberately avoided the inner side of the street, and his expression couldn't help but be a little tighter.

Sun Yun is not as nervous as Du Juan, after all, no matter what he says, he is also the second son of the Chatai family in terms of identity. Seeing that the cuckoo was slightly worried, Sun Yun subconsciously protected him with his hands.........

Fortunately, the patrolling troops didn't care about Sun Yun and Du Juan, as if they didn't see it, they lowered their heads and continued to drag their decadent steps forward, until they reached the corner of the street and alley in front of them, and disappeared into the darkness......

"Now the situation in the capital is really getting more and more chaotic...... Du Juan saw it in his eyes and couldn't help but say in confusion, "I heard a few days ago that there are riots of officers and soldiers beating civilians to death...... Not to mention being invaded by enemy troops outside, the internal security of the imperial court itself is unstable, and if it continues like this, most of the people will have a hard time, and the empty generals here will be devastated again......"

"It's not really, it's so serious......" Sun Yun was afraid that Du Juan was thinking too much, so he couldn't help but comfort him, and then relieved in a joking tone, "Juan Er, just now, shouldn't you be afraid of those officers and soldiers?"

"I ...... I'm not afraid......" Du Juan heard Sun Yun's "mocking" tone, blushing and shyly responded.

"Hehe, I'm by your side, don't worry too much, Juan'er......" Sun Yun took out the token on his waist and comforted him, "After all, I am also a member of the Chatai family, no matter how bad I am, I still have this token representing the highest power of the family in my hand, and it will be fine......" However, halfway through speaking, Sun Yun's eyes were a little calm, looking at the token in his hand, it seemed that his heart was fluctuating.

"That's the token that Uncle Chatai gave you......" Du Juan knew a little bit, looking at Sun Yun's suddenly deep expression, he couldn't help but be stunned in his heart.

"Yes, it was said that it was 'self-defense' with a token, but in fact, with it, the burden on his shoulders was even heavier......" As he spoke, Sun Yun couldn't help but think of what his father had said to him before leaving......

(in recall)......

"Yun'er ......" King Chatai closed his eyes and said quietly, then slowly took out a golden token from behind him, raised his hand and said slowly, "You hold this thing...... Ahem......"

Sun Yun took the token and asked intently, "Is this thing...... What is it?"

"This is the gold medal of our Chatai family's status as the ruler of the dynasty...... You just hold it, ahem...... No matter where you go, you can represent the highest status of the Chatai royal family...... Ahem......"

"Father, you...... Why did you give me this?" After learning the weight of this thing, Sun Yun's hands trembled a little, and Zhen Zhen asked.

"Since you are determined to inherit the will of your father and your brother, from now on, ...... You are burdened with the fate of the Chatai family...... Ahem......" continued King Chatai, "Zana and Kortai are bent on seizing the throne of the family...... Ahem...... Now that Dorton and I are crippled and in power, the legacy of our father and son ...... Ahem...... It's all up to Yun'er...... Stay at home and one day...... You're going to be killed by the Kortai people, so you're still ...... Good ...... to get out of here Ahem......"

"Father, you let me ...... Leaving the house?" Sun Yun asked in a bit of a daze.

"The palace is here...... Some are just intriguing and deceitful, disregarding family affection in order to seize power...... Ahem...... I can't give you the warmth of home...... Ahem...... "King Chatai endured his serious illness and continued to insist, "Yun'er, you can only leave here...... With this 'golden token', I fulfilled my father's wish outside...... It is also your wish to maintain the stability of the imperial court and protect the society of the country...... Ahem......"

"But I'm out of here, and I can still ...... Where else can I go......" Sun Yun was reluctant to leave his father, and said with a sad look in his eyes.

"There's one of the best places in Dadu, isn't it......" King Chatai continued with a friendly expression, "a place that can really give you family affection...... Ahem...... That's your real home...... Ahem......"

"Laiyun...... Dart game ......" Sun Yun accompanied the sad tone, and the words echoed.

"I haven't been back for a long time...... Look at your father-in-law...... Ahem...... "King Chatai turned his head and smiled at Sun Yun, and said slowly, "It's been a month, and everyone there should miss you...... Ahem...... Get out of here, go back, Yun'er, there...... It's your real home......"

"Father......" Sun Yun held the token in his hand tightly, and reluctantly flew back to the Lai Dart Bureau, but he was always relieved not to be relieved of his seriously injured father and brother, Sun Yun continued to worry and asked, "But if I leave, Father, you ...... And what about my brother? In case that woman and Kortai are eyeing the family power, and I'm not around, in case I do you anything wrong......"

"Don't worry, Dorton and I will be fine...... Ahem......" King Chatai coughed and said comfortingly, "After all, the power of the family is still in the hands of my father, unless I die...... Ahem...... Even if they don't care about family affection, they won't be to the point of killing my relatives...... Ahem...... As long as I live, they won't dare to do anything, Yun'er, you don't have to worry about me and your brother...... However, when you leave here, although you have a 'token' with you, your father is not by your side, and if there are traitors inside and outside the court who harm you, you must be careful...... Ahem...... The Father has no power to protect you anymore...... Ahem......"

"Father, rest assured, the child will take care of himself......" Sun Yunqiang held back the tears in the corners of his eyes, and swore Zhenzhen, "The child will definitely inherit your father's wishes, govern well and be close to the people, and protect the society and ...... the country."

When King Chatai heard this, he nodded with a calm smile......

(In reality)......

"Father, rest assured, the child will not disappoint your expectations, inherit your will, and protect the country...... "Sun Yun clenched the token in his hand tighter and tighter, and secretly swore to make up his mind......

After walking for a few more moments, I made a few detours from the middle street, and finally came to the familiar alley - my former home, the Lai Dart Bureau was in front of me, and Sun Yun and Du Juan finally arrived home.

"I'm finally back, and I can finally see my stepfather again...... Stepmother, and Ah Guang, they ......" saw the dart plaque again, Sun Yun showed a happy look, sighed and missed - and returned here today, Sun Yun finally didn't have to miss anymore, reverie about to see the relatives who had not met for a long time, Sun Yun was extremely excited.

The cuckoo was the same, approaching with two crutches, and said with a happy expression: "Yes, I haven't been back for a long time...... I've suffered too much in the Chatai Palace, but it's more cordial to come back here......"

"It's so late, shouldn't my father-in-law and Ah Guang all sleep......" Sun Yun smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said pretending to be a trick, "Or, give them a surprise?"

"Don't-Aunt Zhen is not in good health, she can't be frightened, if you go back so suddenly, aren't you afraid that she will faint on the spot?"

"I think before I surprise them, let's surprise Juan Er first......" Sun Yun's eyes suddenly turned "bad", as if he had a ghost idea, and slowly walked to Du Juan's side.

"Give me, what kind of surprise......" Du Juan couldn't figure out what Sun Yun meant for a while, and said a little sluggishly.

"That's ......" Sun Yun walked up to the cuckoo and ...... it with both hands together, "This!-" Suddenly, Sun Yun used both hands to hug the cuckoo.

"Ahh......h What are you doing?"

"I haven't been home for a long time, I'll give you a surprise first-" Sun Yun said with a hearty smile.

"This ...... What kind of surprise is this......" Du Juan was flattered for a moment, and was tightly held in Sun Yun's arms, blushing and shyly.

"Juan'er, have you forgotten, when the dart bureau first moved to Dadu, I also carried you in like this......" Sun Yun recalled the past and smiled with a smile.

"The original...... The past ......" was said by Sun Yun, and Du Juan remembered......

(in recall)......

When the Lai Dart Bureau first moved to Dadu......

"Juan'er, most of them have arrived, I'll help you down......" Sun Yun looked at the cuckoo who was still in the car and said kindly.

The cuckoo was still dressed in purple, seeing that Sun Yun, who was the young master of the dart game, cared about him so much, the cuckoo blushed, and then replied softly: "Don't bother the son, the cuckoo will come down by himself......" As he spoke, the cuckoo held on to the frame next to him, ready to slowly get out of the car by himself.

However, afraid that the cuckoo had never been far away and was a little afraid of the unfamiliar environment, Sun Yun still stepped forward, hugged the cuckoo directly, and then let it land steadily.

This sudden movement made the cuckoo blush to the root of his ears all of a sudden. After landing steadily, the cuckoo hurriedly responded: "The cuckoo doesn't dare, the cuckoo is just a maid, son...... Childe takes such good care of the cuckoo, and the cuckoo is grateful......"

(In reality)......

Thinking about himself at that time, he was still very shy, and he was even delicate when he talked to Sun Yun; now that he is happy with Sun Yun, he calmly thinks of the past at the same time, and he can't help but feel a warm sweetness in his heart......

"It's all the same, what kind of surprise is it now......" Du Juan still blushed and snuggled into Sun Yun's arms.

"Ouch, you're quite picky......" Sun Yun continued to joke, and said in the same tone, "Okay, it turned out that I just helped you get off the carriage, and today I will carry you and walk home to surprise the whole family-"

When Du Juan heard this, he shyly beat Sun Yun while "struggling" and said, "Oh, I hate it, you let me down......"

However, Sun Yun didn't listen, picked up the crutches and hugged the cuckoo, and ran quickly to the door of the dart game......

At this time, in the Laiyun Dart Bureau, because the hour was too late, Sun Yun's stepfather and stepmother had already rested. The three brothers Ren Guang, Lin Jing and Shi Changsong, who were left behind, still did the same as usual, and checked everything in the courtyard of the dart bureau for the last time before nightfall, and then went back to the room to rest after making sure that it was correct.

However, tonight, the three brothers seemed to be in good spirits, and after checking everything in the courtyard, they did not rush to rest, but sat on a stone table in the courtyard, spared a pot of wine, and drank each other at night......

"Come, dry ......" and "dry ......" The three of them exchanged wine glasses, and the sound was not loud in the night, but they also cherished each other, and after drinking it all, they chatted with each other as usual. It's just that without the young master Sun Yun, the brothers are no longer as happy as before, but have an inexplicable loss and sorrow.

"It's been more than a month since the young master left the dart game...... Ren Guang, as the leader, was still the first to say as usual, "Although this month, the dart game has not experienced any strong winds and waves, but the days have passed peacefully, but it feels a little less......"

"It's not that the dart game itself has changed, it's just that the young master is not there...... Lin Jing couldn't help but say melancholy, "Think about it, we and the young master drank in the courtyard every once in a while, and Abu was together when he was alive, how happy he was at that time...... But now, Abu is dead, and the young master is gone, leaving us three brothers behind, and of course there is a lot of loneliness......"

Shi Changsong drank another cup by himself, followed up and said: "But how to say, the young master's true life experience is also a member of the Chatai family, and it is his home after all, and it is inevitable to leave us...... But no matter where the young master is, whether he is a Mongolian or a Han, he is our young master, and he is our brother-" The last sentence was said impassionedly, and Shi Changsong's eyes were certain, and he looked at the wine glass in his hand intently.

"You're right, no matter what the young master is, he is our good brother-" Ren Guang smiled calmly when he heard this, then raised his wine glass and said, "Come, brothers, let's have a drink!"

Lin Jing and Shi Changsong raised their wine glasses again, and the brothers talked about the bitterness and joy of each other......

"Oh, you let me go...... Let go of me......" Suddenly, outside the gate of the dart bureau, a woman's voice came.

"It's so late, and there are soldiers patrolling the street, who dares to shout like this outside?"

"Let's go and see—it's not good to recruit officers and soldiers at such ......a late hour," Shi Changsong reminded.

"Hmm......" Ren Guang nodded, and the three brothers put down their wine glasses and got up, and walked towards the gate of the courtyard......
