I don't want to return

On a sunny day in April, although the temperature is not too high, standing under the sun at noon is still very hot.

Standing on the embankment by the river, Mu Chongyu looked at the calm shoal under his feet, and his eyes extended to the laborers who built the embankment in the distance.

This is the largest river that flows through Yuzhou. The embankment has been in disrepair for a long time and it is no longer useful. Therefore, when he and Xue Jinghong inspected the people in Yuzhou, they proposed to strengthen the embankment to prevent problems before they happen.

At this time, the two of them came to the river embankment to personally inspect the construction.

Mu Chongyu glanced at Xue Jinghong, who was surrounded by crowds standing in the front right, with complicated and unspeakable emotions.

He never thought that Xue Jinghong would consider such a nuanced situation for him.

Mu Chongyu was going to be a shepherd in Yuzhou. Xue Jinghong was afraid that Gao Wenjing would not accept it, so he went through his past case documents one by one, picking out the faults and asking Mu Chongyu to point out improvements one by one.

Mu Chongyu's identity was unknown, so Xue Jinghong helped him fabricate an identity and let him stand here aboveboard.

After doing this several times, the effect is very obvious.A few days ago, when Mu Chongyu pointed out that "although there is a severe drought recently, there will be heavy rain after the severe drought, and the embankment must be strengthened to prepare for the rain", Gao Wenjing no longer doubted it, and his expression changed from hesitation and dissatisfaction at the beginning to The current reverence and obedience.

The reason is that Mu Chongyu has been able to observe the details of each of the more than a dozen cases he has tried, find out the mistakes, and improve them to perfection.

However, only Mu Chongyu knew that without Xue Jinghong sitting on the sidelines, how could he investigate the case so leisurely and slowly erect his majesty?

Xue Jinghong seemed to have a feeling in his heart. He turned his head slightly, and met Mu Chongyu's gaze. He smiled and strode over.

"Chongyu's suggestion is really timely. If it wasn't for the investigation this time, how could we find that the embankment has been damaged to such an extent?" Jade's face.

Mu Chongyu lowered his head slightly, his eyes flickering.

Xue Jinghong's gaze refused to leave, and his smile remained undiminished. When he saw a catkin on the temple hair of the young man opposite him, he naturally reached out and brushed it off gently.

Right now, both Gao Wenjing and Director Cao are personally supervising the work in the distance ahead, and there is no one else around, so Xue Jinghong's hand is a little reluctant to leave.

He slowly slid towards Mu Chongyu's slightly reddened cheeks along the soft, dark black hair, and his fingers couldn't help trembling slightly due to the delicate touch.

He has wasted a lot of time in Yuzhou, at most two or three days later, he will have to leave.

"Chongyu..." With all kinds of emotions suppressed in his throat, Xue Jinghong called out in a hoarse voice.

Mu Chongyu seemed to be stung by something, and hurriedly avoided Xue Jinghong's touch.He raised his eyes to catch a glimpse of Xue Jinghong's eyes that instantly dimmed, clenched his fists, and finally couldn't bear to back away, so he just stood there stiffly.

Xue Jinghong had no choice but to withdraw his hand, and instead held the young man's shoulder, his voice was distressed: "Chongyu, I'm leaving in a few days, you..." He wanted to ask "Will you miss me?" Bian became cowardly again, and changed his words dryly: "You must take care of yourself."

Mu Chongyu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, he suddenly raised his eyes to look at Xue Jinghong, looking straight into his eyes: "I already know your Majesty's love."

At that time in the inn, he was shocked by Xue Jinghong's sudden behavior, and spent days and nights in wild suspicion. Does this person really have an extremely precious love for him as he said?Or are you just teasing yourself?Test yourself, disrupt your position?Or even playing with yourself, treating yourself as frivolous as a woman?

He was suspicious in every possible way and could not understand it in every possible way.It wasn't until he gradually calmed down and saw Xue Jinghong making all kinds of considerate and appropriate arrangements for him that he was slightly moved.

What this person said that day does not seem to be a lie.He saved himself many times, wanted to return Nanyan to himself, let him be the shepherd of Yuzhou, and paved the way for him himself.

He had no reason to doubt Xue Jinghong.His love is true.But it was this extraordinarily sincere friendship that plunged Mu Chongyu into unprecedented entanglement and pain.

A person who destroyed his own country, a person who has held him captive for three years, now says he has feelings for him, how can there be such a ridiculous thing in the world? !

The corner of Mu Chongyu's mouth curled into an arc of unknown meaning, his question was very light, but his tone was cold: "But my pain, the pain of thousands of people in Nanyan, does your Majesty know?"

"I can't find out why His Majesty has such affection for Chongyu, and I don't want to ask. I just want to ask Your Majesty, what do you want Chongyu to do?"

Mu Chongyu's eyes moved away lightly, and the end of his voice trembled, with an inescapable confusion.

If Xue Jinghong wanted to force him to go to the Beiyu Palace like before, he would definitely fight him with swords and never give in.

But Xue Jinghong didn't seem to want anything.He even said that he would return the entire Nanyan to him...

Mu Chongyu had never been so overwhelmed.It seemed that suddenly, he owed Xue Jinghong a lot.It was as if when he escaped from the Beiyu Imperial Palace, he was not forced to do so, or escaped from death, but a betrayal of Xue Jinghong.

It was as if if he confronted Xue Jinghong again, it would be trampling on his affection.

It was as if this lost and regained territory, Yuzhou, the fertile land that belonged to Dayan, was cheated by Xue Jinghong's affection.

Mu Chongyu suddenly felt that the light that had been hanging above his head all this time, the light that supported him to go down, suddenly became blurred, so blurred that he couldn't tell which way he was going, which one was the right one.

Going forward, the vast expanses of lost rivers and mountains can be obtained at your fingertips, and you can regain the king and guard the territory, so that the displaced people of Nanyan can enjoy the well-being of the past.

In terms of emotion and reason, he should not let go of this opportunity within reach.

However, the situation at the moment is like a person who is climbing a high mountain, just to get to the temple on the top of the mountain, but when he climbs halfway, he finds that the high mountain above his head is suddenly cut down by Tiangong's knife and axe, turning it into a flat ground .The temple was right in front of my eyes.It's a pity that the temple that fell from the top of the mountain is no longer surrounded by clouds and mist, and it is no longer as magnificent as imagined.

What's more, it's not some god who leveled the mountain for him, but the enemy who once built the mountain.The enemy changed from his fierce face in the past, and instead showed a tenderness, which made him lose his direction completely.

Mu Chongyu smiled wryly.He didn't know whether he should "use" Xue Jinghong's affection and continue walking.

Xue Jinghong could clearly see the embarrassment, embarrassment and bewilderment in Mu Chongyu's eyes, as if his heart had been pulled, his brows were slightly frowned.

How do you want Mu Chongyu?How could he dare to imagine what would happen to Mu Chongyu?

In this life, as long as he doesn't run away from him, don't misunderstand him, and live well, he will be satisfied.

"Chongyu," Xue Jinghong twitched the corners of his lips, but the smile on his face was extremely bitter. He paused for a moment, but did not answer Mu Chongyu's question after all.

Even though he is clamoring thousands of times in his heart, "I want you to understand my heart", "I want you to forgive me", "I want you to accept me slowly", "I want you to care about me like I care about you "...

Xue Jinghong endured for a long time before he restrained himself from holding Mu Chongyu in his arms.He lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Stay well in Yuzhou. Wait for me."
