I met true love in my dream

Different from the scene of the banquet hall with fragrant clothes and golden temples, the back garden of the Barus mansion is safe and quiet, the air is mixed with the fresh smell of earth and the scent of flowers, and you can feel light in your chest when you take a breath.The maids hung the chandeliers on the trees in advance, so it didn't look dark at all, and the garden was brightly lit.

Almost all the plants in the garden are ordinary flowers and plants, but they grow very well, and the scenery is very beautiful at first glance, but it is still much worse than that of the City Lord's Mansion.

Columbarus was tall, and Chu Muyu only reached his waist, so he half-kneeled down and looked up at His Highness, with his right hand on his chest to show his sincerity, and his brown eyes looked straight in. In those black eyes: "Your Highness, please forgive my father's rudeness."

Seeing him half-kneeling in front of her, Chu Muyu immediately calmed down, "What are you doing?"

Columbarus said seriously: "I know my father. His previous actions completely crossed the bottom line. Even though these laws have been cancelled, but according to his father's character, he will not compromise so easily, so... after that he You will definitely do something, Your Highness, be careful."

"I also hope that His Highness...will be lenient towards my father in the future."

Columbarus' voice was low, and because of his posture, he looked up at Chu Muyu without avoiding his gaze at all.There was a bit of bitterness and discomfort in the gentle young man's eyes, but they were more resolute and desperate.

Chu Muyu was silent.

"Why don't you stand by your father?" Chu Muyu didn't quite understand this behavior called Columbarus.

The smile on the corner of the young man's mouth was bitter, and his eyelashes drooped, "Because I know that my father's behavior is wrong, and if I indulge my father, Bustan will definitely be overthrown within three years, and the Barus family will also be in a desperate situation. Instead of letting this If such a situation happens, it is better to nip this situation in the cradle early."

Chu Muyu looked at him again with a scrutinizing gaze, and Mira and Willie who stood behind did not make a sound, just watched quietly, waiting for His Highness's decision.

The night was silent, except for the chirping of cicadas, only the breathing of a few people could be heard.

The half-kneeling posture of the young man remained the same, and after a long time without getting an answer, the sound of breathing gradually became heavier, and the frequency of the heartbeat began to speed up.

Before confessing, Columbarus thought that he might fail, but when he was about to face this result, he still found it difficult to accept.

Just when the young man was about to despair, Chu Muyu finally said, "I promise you."

"But there are conditions."

Columbarus's heart that had just been let go immediately lifted up again.

"Columbarus, from now on your future will no longer belong to your father, nor will it belong to you, but to me."

Although this sentence is a bit secondary, it was thought up by Chu Muyu after careful consideration. He has read a lot of books and has a relatively in-depth understanding of the people in this "world".The superior needs the loyalty of the subordinate, and the best way to show loyalty is the magic oath issued by the subordinate.

Columbarus did not hesitate at all, clenched his right hand into a fist and pressed it to his chest, and said word by word: "God of Light, I, Columbarus, dedicate my body and soul to His Royal Highness, the sun and the moon rise in the east Xi Chen, my life will also be surrendered to you."

Chu Muyu chanted silently in her heart, and tapped the young man's forehead with her index finger. At the moment of contact, a white light quickly disappeared, which indicated that the magic declaration had begun to take effect.

What Chu Muyu sang was the most basic magic oath. Once others betrayed, although the betrayer would not be killed, he would be backlashed by magic and become a fool who didn't know anything.

"Okay, you can rest assured now, I will do what I said." Chu Muyu said.

Columbarus stood up, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Columbarus is not a stupid person. He has no regrets about the magic oath he made. Perhaps his intuition tells him that he needs to do this. The Barus family cannot be destroyed by his father.

-

Yue Ze was sitting outside the carriage, barely moved since Chu Muyu left, and stared straight at the gate of Barus' mansion.

Fu Xi Saiyin was a little bored, and said to Yue Ze: "The dinner party usually lasts a long time, and His Highness will not come out so soon."

He wanted to persuade Yue Ze not to stand at the door so motionless, like an immobile sculpture.

Teacher Ander went to another place, there was no one else in this place except them, only the brilliant lights inside could be glimpsed from the outside, it was extremely quiet.

Koshizawa ignored Forsythein, his body was a little tense, and a faint smell of decay floated from behind. This smell has never been forgotten by Koshizawa. He almost died two years ago because of having this smell. The person - Necromancer.

This smell was so light that Forsythein didn't smell it at all, but Yue Ze was born with a keen sense of smell, and he had experienced it before, so he smelled it very quickly.

His heart skipped a beat, and he asked Forsythein for the first time: "Where is that location?"

Forsythein looked in the direction his finger was pointing, feeling strange, but subconsciously replied: "That should be the back garden of Barus's house."

Yue Ze jumped off the carriage and ran to the back garden without any hesitation.

Fu Xi Sai was startled, and hurriedly chased after him: "Yue Ze, what are you doing?"

Both of them ran very fast, their bodies were light, and they didn't make any extra noise, like black cats passing by quietly at night.

Koshizawa held the handle of the knife with both hands, and while running, looked around vigilantly.The garden was already full of chandeliers, he leaped lightly, and dexterously climbed onto a tree with lush branches with both hands and feet. His petite body was easily hidden behind the lush leaves.

Forsythein guessed that Yue Ze must have sensed some danger. His tree climbing skills were no better than Yue Ze's, so he could only lie behind the unlit bushes and look inside from the shaded greenery.

Nobody.

Yue Ze didn't relax his vigilance. Not long after, a group of people walked slowly from the inside, and the one in the front was His Highness whom he was thinking of.

His breathing was a little messed up, and he really wanted to jump down and stand in front of His Highness, so that His Highness's eyes would fall on him, but the rotting smell didn't disappear, on the contrary, it became clearer.

Columbarus had already relaxed, and he introduced the wild flowers in the garden with a smile, hoping to make Chu Muyu feel more interesting.

"My mother loves these flowers and plants, and spends most of her time at home on them..."

Without warning, the lights of the chandeliers were extinguished and darkness enveloped the room.

Willie and Mira immediately stepped forward and surrounded Chu Muyu to protect him.

"What's going on?" Chu Muyu asked.

Columbarus was also a little confused for a moment, he had never encountered such a situation before, "...the chandelier above it should be broken, let's go back to the hall, Your Highness, I will call a servant to fix it in a while."

Without lights, only the silver glow from the bright moon hanging in the sky vaguely illuminates the surrounding scenery.

A strange smell passed Chu Muyu's nose, it was very faint, but he still felt disgusted, what kind of smell is this?Why is it so bad?

Just as this question came to Chu Muyu's mind, a gust of wind suddenly blew in. I don't know if he had misread it, but a black shadow also quickly approached him.

The wind made the man's robe bulge, and the black shadow was getting closer and closer to his retina. Chu Muyu knew that he was not mistaken, and he subconsciously stepped back.

Willie and Mira kept Chu Muyu behind them, and together they dealt with the black shadow that suddenly appeared.

However, they didn't notice that a wisp of black air slowly drilled out from the ground, meandering like a thin snake, approaching Chu Muyu silently.

Columbarus guarded Chu Muyu behind him. He had learned swordsmanship since he was a child, but he didn't wear it at the moment, and his hands and feet were tied.

The black shadow had no substance, and a strong dark aura permeated it. Will split it with his sword, and soon it reunited.Mira is a wind magician, her attack is like a sharp blade attacking the black shadow, and soon the black shadow is twisted into countless fragments.

Chu Muyu quickly calmed down, and he sang softly. The light as white as the day enveloped the black shadow, and within a few seconds, the black shadow disappeared without a trace.

Darkness is always restrained by light.

"Be careful, Your Highness!"

Before Chu Muyu could turn around, a small body hugged him from behind.

Black smoke penetrated into Koshizawa's body.

The author has something to say:

Koshizawa, the hero who saved the beauty!
