On the way back, the system scolded Cui Qiu from top to bottom, inside and out. Mo Qin was surprised by the way it shared the same hatred as its host, but he didn't express any opinion.

Until now, when he returned to the room, Mo Qin wiped away the tears on his face and looked expressionless, as if nothing had happened.

The system couldn't help but asked indignantly: "Host, don't you hate him if he treats you like this?! Or just go report him to the Queen now and kill Cui Qiu. Don't worry about the points in this world! I don't have it!" I’ve never seen such a shameless male protagonist!”

Mo Qin: "The male protagonists in the last two worlds are quite shameless. Why don't I see you on my side?"

The system said weakly: "Didn't I think about it for you? And the host, you treated him so well, after five years of selfless dedication! You should be mature enough to raise a dog, but you ended up raising a white-eyed wolf."

Mo Qin slowly lit the lamps in the room one by one, and said to the system calmly: "Cui Qiu also has his reasons for doing this. Treating me as a chess piece placed next to the emperor is the fastest way for him to gain power. A way to win the throne.”

The system was shocked: "Host, you are actually siding with the male protagonist! Are you suffering from Stockholm Syndrome?"

Mo Qin: "I'm just stating the reasons why he did this. Who said I forgive him! It's just impossible to kill the male protagonist directly like you said. The ending in the plot outline is to make him become the emperor. .What if he is killed by me now and my points are lost? What if he is discovered by Tiandao?"

"But host, don't you hate him? You have raised him for five years! Without you, he might have died long ago..." The system muttered, "And this guy is better than the male protagonists in the previous two worlds. That's too much. You hate those two so much and have made them miserable, but don't you want to take revenge on Cui Qiu?"

"Hate? You are wrong, Tongzi. I have never hated anyone." Mo Qin's eyes were long and distant, like a bottomless lake that could accommodate everything in the world. "I only know that they bullied me. I'm not good, or their feelings have become a burden to me, so I want to get back at them and leave completely."

"Similarly, I am indeed very angry about Cui Qiu, but this emotion will not stay in my heart for a long time. I hold grudges but I am also very rational." Mo Qin's eyes became more and more distant, as if he wanted to see through the fog of the world and see Something further and deeper...

His mind fell into a state of contemplation, and there seemed to be a naughty voice shouting from far away: "Little Ye Zi, I'll just call you Little Ye Zi..."

"Little Leaf..."

"Host..." The system's call brought Mo Qin back to the present.No matter how much I want to recall something, I no longer have that distant feeling of being found, as if the fragments that existed deep in my memory have been found.

Mo Qin held his forehead and closed his eyes.

The system asked nonchalantly: "Host, you just said 'little leaf' in your mouth. What did it mean?"

Mo Qin let out a long sigh: "I don't know, maybe it's something I experienced before I lost my memory. I can't remember clearly. Don't worry, I promise, even if Cui Qiu gets his wish and becomes the emperor, I will He will also pay the price."

"I don't hate him, but that doesn't mean I don't hold grudges. This sobriety can keep me sane. Think about how to make this white-eyed wolf---eternal."

Mo Qin's voice was not loud but it was full of oppression.

The system hid in the space and thought: Who is the host in his original world?It doesn't matter if he doesn't fall in love with the person he's tasked with, but he doesn't even have any hatred.Have all the seven emotions and six desires been purified?Could it be that he is a monk?

Political affairs are the busiest at the end of each year, and Cui Yuanjue is almost too busy these days.

Every day I had to approve the papers until late at night, and the next day I had to go to court to meet with the local officials who reported on their work.I could only sleep for two hours at most every day.

After going on like this for several days, he felt that he couldn't stand it anymore.

Thinking that Mo Qin's calligraphy was good, he had been with him for so long.He must have learned a lot because he was so smart, so he left some unimportant trivial matters to Mo Qin to take care of.Including daily greetings and praises from some courtiers to flatter the emperor.

As a result, Mo Qin was successfully promoted from a personal attendant to a eunuch in charge of rituals, and became the most powerful eunuch in the entire Li Kingdom, which can be said to be the first case since the founding of the country.

As his status rose, more and more people fawned over him.

But Mo Qin showed an attitude of being unmoved by fame and fortune, and did not accept the overtures from any force.

He acted honestly as his personal attendant and chief of etiquette, and his words and deeds were not out of line.

The emperor was very satisfied with his performance of loyalty and said that he would give him a large gift in recognition of his loyalty.

Mo Qin thanked him calmly and showed an indifferent attitude toward all honors and favors.

He knew that if he could become a palm eunuch, Cui Qiu's encouragement would be indispensable.

Cui Qiu wants to ascend to a high position and wants supreme power.

And Mo Qin wanted to repay Concubine Shu's kindness so that her soul could rest in peace and her reputation could be good.

He didn't want to worry about the rest.

Anyway, I have committed myself to the emperor. It makes no difference whether it is voluntary or forced, for others or for myself.

New Year's Eve, royal banquet.

Many major events happened in this year. The ruling party was eliminated, the people welcomed a good harvest, and the prince also made many extraordinary achievements in the northwest, including conquering several cities in the Jin Kingdom.

Although for the people in the palace, the current situation is that some are happy and some are sad, but overall, it is a year worth celebrating.

Therefore, this time the royal New Year's Eve banquet was held with unprecedented splendor.

People came and went in Yuetian Tower, and every table was filled with princes and ministers.All kinds of delicacies were served like water, and famous singers and dancers came on stage to add to the fun.

In the capital, in order to truly enjoy the people, the emperor took out money from the royal private treasury to hold a large banquet.Hundreds of believers took to the streets to wish His Majesty happiness, longevity and health, and to celebrate the arrival of the New Year.

Mo Qin stayed by the emperor's side with Fu Chen in hand from beginning to end, occasionally adding some drinks to him and whispering to him not to drink too much.Compared with the servants who were so busy that they never touched the ground, they were so idle.

Cups are pushed and cups are exchanged, and glasses of wine are exchanged. Fireworks bloom on the river.The dazzling firelight illuminated people's faces that were either red or white.

The emperor sent a New Year's greeting.

The historian was writing furiously on the side, describing the grand occasion of that day.

The busy day was finally over, and Cui Yuanjue felt tired. After watching the fireworks, he took Mo Qinbao and drove back to the palace.

After waiting for Cui Yuanjue to take a bath, Mo Qin excused himself as smelling of alcohol and went to take a bath first.

But he was greeted by the emperor's mysterious smile: "Come back soon. I told you that I have a big gift for you today."

It was a great gift indeed, and it was a gift so valuable that Mo Qin did not dare to accept it.

What Cui Yuanjue gave him was a gold medal for immunity from death.

Only princes and ministers who have made outstanding achievements or have made great contributions to the emperor can get a piece.As long as it is not a crime of rebellion, they can be exempted from punishment.The prince had used one to escape jail before.

But the real importance of the death-free gold medal is not its function, but the superior rights and status it symbolizes.Generally, only those with high authority are lucky enough to get a piece.Take it out to show off to others, and it can also be regarded as a symbol of royal protection.

If such a precious thing fell into the hands of an eunuch, if the public officials outside knew about it, Mo Qin would be drowned by spitting.

Cui Yuanjue said: "You don't have to worry, no one knows except you and me. Take it out when you want to use it, and I won't default on it."

"Okay, stop kneeling on the ground. I've been busy with various political affairs this month, and I haven't really hurt you. Come up and let me see if your body has recovered." The man's phoenix eyes are narrow, noble and deep, but on the surface A slight smile emerged.
