After exhausting myself to death
Chapter 120 It’s too late to remedy the situation (25)
"Brother, why did you ask about the birthday party just now? Did Ming Huan say anything at that time?" Mosnian asked anxiously when he saw that the relationship between father and son had become more tense.
He is very ashamed now, but if he doesn't speak, it will be even more impossible for Shao Kunyao to speak, and the relationship between this family will only become more and more difficult.
Mo Hexuan's eyebrows were cold. He had no intention of concealing anything, and even recited the conversation between him and Shen Minghuan exactly as it was with a bit of pique.
And when his words fell, the room was filled with silence, lifeless.
Both the speaker and the listener seemed to be frozen, unable to move, and could only passively endure the pain of thousands of arrows piercing their hearts.
"It was my fault."
After a long time, Mo Hongxue rubbed the center of his eyebrows and said with a wry smile: "It's right for him to hate me."
Over the years, before meeting Shen Minghuan, he had felt guilt, pain, and suffering.
Yaoyao blamed him, Hexuan blamed him, he tortured himself until he was alone, but he never regretted it.
When he made this decision, he had already anticipated this scene. He was willing to pay the price, blood on his hands, sin on his body, and loneliness for the rest of his life, to fulfill a brotherhood.
But he regrets it now.
It's not because he can't afford it anymore, it's because that person is Shen Minghuan.
"He doesn't hate you." Mo Hexuan said coldly, "He doesn't hate anyone."
"He would say these words to me to persuade me to truly treat Si Nian as a biological brother. He didn't want anyone to be trapped in the nightmare of sixteen years ago."
Mo Hexuan smiled sarcastically: "To summarize his behavior as holding a grudge or taking revenge is to belittle and insult him."
Mo Hongxue was silent, he sighed and agreed: "You are right."
"Mo Hongxue." After sixteen years, Shao Kunyao finally called Mo Hongxue's name.
Mo Hongxue trembled all over and subconsciously responded: "Here we come."
There were still unfinished tears in Shao Kunyao's eyes, "Can you save him? Please save him..."
Although she is the richest man, she is politically clear now. She could not save her child with money sixteen years ago, and she still cannot save her child sixteen years later.
Confusion and pain appeared on Mo Hongxue's face. He hesitated for a moment, and finally could only honestly give an ambiguous answer.
"I'll try my best," he whispered.
It is not difficult to save one's life, but what is difficult is to return the glory and praise to Shen Minghuan and get everything back on track.
Shao Kunyao understood him, and Mo Hongxue's word "try your best" was more useful than any guarantee, so she breathed a sigh of relief, but shed tears again.
"He doesn't want to go home, doesn't he? Doesn't he want to recognize us?"
"Yao Yao." Mo Hongxue tentatively hugged her into his arms, and he held her tightly, "We still have time, and we will make it up to him in the future."
Although Mo Hongxue comforted Shao Kunyao, in fact he was not so optimistic.
His child failed to grow up surrounded by love, but he was not a person lacking love.
The young man's heart can hold everything in the world, and he draws courage and wisdom from all things in the world. He seems to be soft-hearted and gentle, but he is also the most determined and decisive.
Shen Minghuan...
Mo Hongxue sighed again in his heart.
Ming and Huan both have good meanings. If it is given the surname Mo, it will indeed be neither fish nor fowl.
*
The police officer took Shen Minghuan from the lounge to another room.
There were already two people waiting in the room. They looked to be about the same age as Xie Xu, with slightly white temples and a few wrinkles at the corners of their eyes.
He always has a smile on his face, is affable, and has the majesty and dominance of a leader.
Although he knew that someone must have checked it, the police officer carefully checked the sound insulation and defense system again before closing the door and exiting.
He looked around carefully and saw no one around, so he stamped his feet excitedly and furtively.
These two figures appeared in the alliance's current political news, and the excitement of seeing them even overshadowed the anger and irritation when seeing Shen Minghuan.
inside the house.
The leader had a gentle and easy-going smile, and she stretched out her hand, "I am Xiang Wanyu, hello, classmate Shen."
"I'm Shen Minghuan, hello, Speaker." Shen Minghuan pretended to be serious and introduced herself by imitating Xiang Wanyu's sentence patterns. The two people in the room were amused and laughed immediately.
Just looking at the atmosphere, it was hard to believe what a serious topic they were about to talk about.
The alliance's political system is not complicated, leaving aside the local politics of each planet and galaxy. The central decision-making involving the entire alliance is reached through the joint deliberations of hundreds of members.
The head of the parliament is called the Speaker.
Laughter is a joke, but business still needs to be discussed. Xiang Wanyu is busy with affairs every day. If the matter was not important and she felt guilty, she would not come in person.
"Classmate Shen, you should already know, right?"
This child is really smart. Although she had no intention of hiding it and had organized a long conversation along the way, she knew when they met that she probably wouldn't use it.
Shen Minghuan seemed to understand everything, whether it was his life experience or the grievances he was about to endure.
Shen Minghuan nodded and said with a smile, "If nothing else, I should know."
"Well," he paused and asked sincerely: "Is it necessary to go through the bloodline identification process? Can I admit it directly?"
He found it troublesome and couldn't do anything with the time.
Xiang Wanyu was slightly startled, but quickly reacted.
"Good boy," she said.
If it is a fraud, there is a possibility that it will be discovered. Once someone finds out the clues, this matter will become a crime for the alliance.
But if Shen Minghuan refuses to cooperate and directly admits his identity, then it is at best due to improper alliance procedures.
Moreover, one less procedure means one less risk that the truth may be revealed.
Bloodline identification was hope for Shen Minghuan, but he gave up this hope.
This man is indeed dedicated to the alliance, selfless and upright, even at the expense of himself.
Xiang Wanyu has spent half his life in the officialdom, and this is the first time he has seen such a sincere, pure and kind person.
"Ming Huan," she sighed, her eyes became more friendly, and she sincerely regarded the person in front of her as a beloved junior, "The alliance will take care of all your daily needs. When the war is over..."
She said no more, knowing that these comforting words were really pale.
If we lose this battle, it will be over.
But if they win, the alliance will be busy rebuilding and trying to stabilize people's hearts. Shen Minghuan made mistakes in his identity twice. The first time could be said to be due to poor supervision, and Mo Hongxue has to bear the main responsibility.
So what’s the second time?
The Tangtang Alliance could use this method to frame a young man. How could he know that there had been no unjust, false or wrongful convictions in the past? How do you know that you won’t push yourself further in the future?
Can the alliance guarantee it, but can the public believe it?
The alliance is an alliance for everyone, and the degree of their trust in the alliance is the vitality of the alliance.
Maybe we have to wait until many years later, when the alliance is strong again, before we have the courage to admit the mistakes we made in history.
As one of the few insiders and the decision-maker who finally decided on this method, she will also bear this responsibility and make it a less glorious event in the history books.
But at that time, Shen Minghuan and Xiang Wanyu were probably no longer in the world.
Xiang Wanyu knew these things, and Shen Minghuan also knew them.
"You don't need to take it to heart." Shen Minghuan didn't take it seriously. "I can understand it during special times, not to mention I don't care about it."
He smiled and said: "Speaker, let's work hard together to make the alliance better. In this case, I am enough."
"...Okay." Xiang Wanyu took a long time to respond. Although her voice was small, her tone was firm, just like the way she stood under the flag and swore an oath when she was elected as the Speaker.
The alliance must become the Alliance of Justice. Only then can it be worthy of the countless heroes who have gone on to fight for it, and only then can it be worthy of the sincere young man.
"Is there anything you want?" Xiang Wanyu asked.
She didn't ask what the other party wanted because it wasn't a transaction.
She asked for a wish.
Shen Minghuan nodded solemnly: "Yes, there is only one request - I want to go to the front line."
After the swearing-in ceremony, the newly recruited soldiers had already set off. Only Shen Minghuan stayed temporarily, and the alliance had not yet decided how to arrange him.
Xiang Wanyu didn't expect Shen Minghuan to say this. As the speaker, she was not short of money. She originally thought that she would try her best to meet Shen Minghuan's needs, but what he wanted was to serve the country.
Shen Minghuan blinked, "Is it difficult?"
Xiang Wanyu smiled bitterly and said calmly: "It's a bit."
Now in the eyes of everyone, Shen Minghuan is the second best person in the Tang Dynasty.
Famous at a young age, SS level, extraordinary skills, military genius...
Now, Shen Minghuan is still the son of Tang Dynasty Yan, which is like a reincarnation of fate.
"Frankly speaking, I hope you stay on the Emperor Star." Xiang Wanyu said: "The alliance's current view of the SS class is relatively pessimistic, and we dare not take this risk."
This has nothing to do with whose child Shen Minghuan is. Even if he is Mo Hongxue's son, the alliance will probably not agree.
If he stays in the Emperor Star, they will try to save his life. After that, with her as the speaker, Xie Xu, the richest man, the Shao family, and the Mo family, he can go sideways without considering public opinion.
Shen Minghuan smiled mysteriously and said confidently: "I have a way."

StarNet.
[Have you seen the alliance announcement? Shen Minghuan is indeed the son of Tang Chao Yan, and he is going to the front line now. 】
【ha? Am I crazy or is the alliance crazy? My wife is also on the front line. I am not afraid of her dying in the battle. I am afraid that she will be killed by Shen Minghuan. The league better give me a reason and don't make me curse. 】
[You haven’t read the announcement upstairs yet? Go watch it first, and you will praise the alliance when you come back. Although this idea is not very humane, but Shen Minghuan, I just want to say that he deserves it! 】
[Father's debt must be paid by son. His father killed tens of millions of people. The death penalty was cheap for Shen Minghuan's bloody crimes. 】
[I just want to know, what was Shen Minghuan thinking when he admitted in the video that he was Tang Chaoyan's son? Did he ever spurn Tang Chaoyan's behavior at some point? Would he be ashamed that his father was such trash? 】
[I see that he is very calm. Maybe he is still proud that his father is so capable and almost caused the alliance to fall by himself. 】
[Does he still have the nerve to refuse a blood test? Laughing to death, you really don’t have the consciousness of being a prisoner. Do you still think that you are the proud son of the First Army? He deserves it too! 】
[If it were anyone else, I might question the fairness of the judiciary, but Shen Minghuan really doesn't deserve sympathy at all. 】
[Maybe he still wants to fight to the death, but it's a pity. The video clearly shows that Lanxing's friend spoke up and was beaten to death. Did he think that it would be fine without an appraisal? 】
[He was allowed to live for sixteen more years in vain. Then he went on the battlefield against the Zerg. I didn’t know who to cheer for. 】
[I came back after reading the announcement, hahahahaha, it has to be an alliance, what a great idea. Just be more ruthless and stipulate how many Zerg he must kill every day, and only give him nutrient solution when the number is reached. 】
[This is good, it’s a bit like ancient slavery. I’m going to look through the information and make suggestions to the alliance. As the saying goes, we should learn from history. There is still something we can learn from the systems that have been eliminated in history. 】
[Then he'd better live a little longer. 】
As we all know, Alliance mechas do not have self-destruct procedures.
Once the mecha starts to self-destruct, let alone what happens to the Zerg, the driver will definitely be dead. Dying for the country is a heroic act. If you can't even wrap your body in horse leather, how can you give some comfort to your relatives at the rear?
What's more, when it comes to matters of life and death, in order to prevent the driver from being impulsive or making a mistake in a crisis, sufficient time must be left to regret.
Although the Zerg are not intelligent, they have a strong instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. They often flee as soon as they foresee danger.
As long as they keep a distance, the self-destruction of the mecha will not cause much damage to them due to the defensive power of its body.
These are the second reasons why the alliance firmly ordered that mechas are not allowed to add self-destruction programs. The most important thing is safety.
As long as it explodes, it is unstable.
Let the driver run around with a huge bomb, even if the current technological level has developed very well, they are not at ease.
This method more or less damages the value of "people", so even if the war is in chaos, even if the situation is at stake, the bottom line that should be maintained cannot be retreated, and the persistence that should be defended cannot be lost.
"But the son of Yan in the Tang Dynasty can always be an exception."
Shen Ming said with a smile, "They hate Tang Chaoyan so much, and they also hate me so much. I am the only one who doesn't care about safety, morality, and virtue. And I am no longer a citizen of the alliance, so I am not protected by the law."
He actually looked very proud, unaware of what an insulting and unequal treaty this was.
Xie Xu's face almost turned purple, and his chest heaved violently. "Install a self-destruct program on the mecha, and its activation will be controlled by the alliance; modify the opening method of the operating hatch so that it can only be opened from the outside..."
He clenched his fists, his facial features were twisted into a ball, and he cursed loudly and angrily: "Xiang Wanyu, I'm going to fight you to the death!"
In addition to prohibiting mental combat in the Star Network, this life was not guaranteed.
Xiang Wanyu looked indifferent and said coldly: "Why don't you take care of your student first? I have already deleted a lot. He was even more cruel to me at the beginning."
Mo Hongxue coughed lowly.
The mental body connected through behavior is too thin, and the state will be affected by the real body. Mo Hongxue had just been injured on the battlefield and was forced to rest. Only then did he have time to participate in this Star Network meeting.
Everyone present at the meeting was an insider. They knew Shen Minghuan's identity and the whole process of changing the situation sixteen years ago.
The most important thing is that they all want to save Shen Minghuan.
Oh, except Shen Minghuan himself.
There were not many people. Compared with last time, there was one more speaker, Xiang Wanyu, and one less client, Mos Nian.
Mo Hexuan was originally on the list of participants, but the front line was anxious and Mo Hongxue was injured in public, so he had no choice but to stay behind to stabilize the morale of the army.
"Why do you seem so angry? This is the best way." Shen Minghuan was puzzled, as if he didn't know why it was these people who decided to give up on him, and it was these people who were reluctant to leave him in the end.
Everyone looked at Shen Minghuan's expression, opened their mouths in vain, and finally couldn't close them.
They can guess Shen Minghuan's reasons without thinking too much. They are nothing more than the overall situation being the most important thing, the safety of the alliance, the morality of the world, and stopping losses in time when mistakes are made...
They couldn't even argue because they were using these same reasons to hurt this man.
Standing at the highest point of morality, it is natural to ask "which is more important?"
No different than the others, Shen Minghuan's expression was dull, almost indifferent at this moment.
He said seriously: "If I put my life in your hands, you will not disbelieve me."
Things related to people in the world are usually expensive, but Shen Minghuan's life is cheap enough to be used as a bargaining chip.
Mo Hongxue coughed rapidly again, and he didn't know why he seemed to be injured more seriously than in reality, even though it was just his mental body.
He asked hoarsely: "Are you willing to come to the Azure Dragon Legion?"
With him and Mo Hexuan here, at least it can ensure that Shen Minghuan will not suffer any injustice.
After all, in today's alliance, basically everyone has a relative or friend who was directly or indirectly killed by Tang Chaoyan, and this is especially true for soldiers.
Shen Minghuan shook his head, "I'm going to Xuanwu. I can see that Qinglong and Xuanwu are the main battlefields this time. Qinglong has Mo to command. In comparison, Xuanwu needs me more."
He has always been confident.
He should also be confident.
He once ended a military exercise that was supposed to last for a month in one day. His opponent was a group of the best students in the alliance;
He once convinced top military academies to recognize him as a commander, and to this day he is the first person who thinks of him when the title commander is mentioned;
He had never been defeated in the mecha battle area, and no one could let him reach the fourth move...
If what happened sixteen years ago had not happened, he should have been a carefree young master of the Mo family, relying on the favor of the people around him to act unscrupulously and domineeringly;
If the incident at the school history museum had not happened, he would have still been a much-anticipated junior in the First Army, pampered and protected by all the teachers and students in the school.
This should be Shen Minghuan's life, bright and bright, without a trace of haze.
But it happened that they, the people who claimed to be the closest to him, turned into a huge dark cloud in his clear and clear sky.
Shao Kunyao's eyes were sad, and she murmured in a low voice: "Why don't you think about yourself?"
He only thinks about the alliance and the overall situation, but he is only seventeen years old. Why should he give himself such a big responsibility at such a young age.
"ah?"
Shen Minghuan scratched his head, "Sometimes it's not that I don't want to think about myself, but it's just unfortunate that things slowly developed like this, so I can only keep going. But I haven't actually suffered any grievances... "
He was not lying when he said this. Although he was still temporarily staying at the police station these days, with the Speaker's care, he had enough food and clothing.
Although he was a prisoner in name, he actually enjoyed VIP treatment, and even his optical brain was not taken away.
"As for those remarks, I just don't listen to them."
He said slowly: "Anyway, it's just a lifetime."
It was as if something collapsed in the minds of the four listeners, scattered into ashes, and finally there was only a sigh.
Xie Xu's fingers twitched, and his voice trembled, "Shen Minghuan, if you have the guts, just say so. Even if you attack me, I will admit it. Why do you need to stab us in the heart like this?"
Shen Minghuan blinked innocently and asked tentatively: "I'm sorry?"
Others could naturally see that he did not feel that what he said was inappropriate at all, and he only apologized because he felt that Xie Xu was angry.
This person seems to have placed himself in a very low position, and the ability to accommodate others seems to be innate.
"Principal Xie Xu," Shao Kunyao felt very uncomfortable. She was reluctant to blame Shen Minghuan, so she had to point the finger at Xie Xu, "You spoke too loudly."
Xie Xu: "???" Can this also be a reason for accusation?
Xie Xu did not refute, so he admitted the unfounded crime. He turned his head and said displeased: "Xiang Wanyu, what are you doing here? Just listening?"
She calmly stretched out her hand to the Speaker, wanting to drink some water out of habit, but after a moment of searching, she realized that she was in a mental body and did not need to eat or drink.
Xiang Wanyu withdrew his hand without leaving a trace, "Are you sure you don't want to answer the communication first? Your optical brain is very noisy."
Xie Xu: "..."
Nonsense! His optical brain is in vibration mode.
Forget it, even the voice he spoke was too loud, even the brain noise can be understood.
Xie Xu raised his hand in frustration and pressed the button to agree to connect. He didn't even see who the other party was, as if he had eaten ten pounds of gunpowder, "Say, what's the matter?"
The other party seemed to flinch, but a burst of noise rang out, and the man ignored his fear and said: "Principal, help me, Shang Chi and Mos Nian are fighting. No, it was Shang Chi who beat Mos Nian unilaterally."
Xie Xu frowned, knowing that Shang Chi had probably guessed it.
After all, he knew that Shen Minghuan was actually Mo Hongxue's son, but he ended up on the Exiled Starship. He probably knew that his identity had been changed.
"Shang Chi, brother Shang, ancestor, if you have anything to say, please tell me. Hey, you really hit me, you hit me too hard. Wait, wait, don't be impulsive, principal, Mos Nian is going to be beaten to death by Shang Chi!"
I could feel the chaos on the other side. Amid Yan Ji's calls to persuade and ask for help, I could vaguely hear Shang Chi's angry roar, and Mos Nian's muffled groan of pain.
And the sound of hard, real hits.
Xie Xu did not open the soundproof cover, and the sound from the optical brain poured out without any obstruction, and everyone present could hear it clearly.
He sneered silently and looked at Mo Hongxue and Shao Kunyao sarcastically, "From what you see, how should I handle this matter?"
The expressions of the two changed several times, and finally fell silent.
"Of course we have to stop them, teacher." Shen Minghuan was indifferent when talking about his fate, but now his face became a little more troubled.
"Brother, why are you still so impulsive?" Shen Minghuan said this, but there was no blame on his face, only obvious worry. He was completely unaware that it was Mos Nian who was about to be beaten to death in the communication, not Shang Chi.
Yan Ji was still shouting: "Lu Zhiyi, why are you going? Lu Zhiyi! Principal, Lu Zhiyi also rushed up. He is being beaten together with Mosnian."
"Hey, are you two stupid? Can't you even hide if you don't fight back? Damn, don't stand there. I beg you, please run away first? Principal, principal, these two are crazy, they are seeking death. headmaster!"
Xie Xu was thoughtful, and it seemed that Lu Zhiyi had also guessed that he was loyal and willing to take the blame for Mos Nian.
People are also smart, but unfortunately, knowing too much is sometimes not a good thing.
Before the principal could finish his sigh, a flash of light flashed and Shen Minghuan had already exited the meeting without even saying hello before leaving.
Everyone was slightly stunned.
Shen Minghuan has always been a very sensible and polite child. Even Xiang Wanyu, who has not had much contact with him, can feel this. He never thought that Shen Minghuan would be rude sometimes.
In fact, you don’t need to think too much to know why.
Xie Xu and Xiang Wanyu lamented the deep brotherhood between the two brothers, while Mo Hongxue and Shao Kunyao felt even more bitter.
They realized so clearly that this man really didn't consider them family at all.
