Ming Yu

Early the next morning, Ziyang felt his nose was itchy, couldn't help but sneezed, opened his eyes, saw Jun Wulei's magnified face, and almost cried out in fright.

Jun Wulei put down the dog's tail grass in his hand, pulled him excitedly and said, "Xiao Douding, get up quickly, Xiao Fenghuang has gone out today, and we just happened to go fishing!"

Ziyang rubbed his eyes, sat up, looked around, and sure enough, Hua Niansu had already left.

After living in the Chalcedony Palace these days, he already understood that the childish adult in front of him was not like ordinary people. Thinking that he was Hua Niansu's companion now, and he was obliged to take care of his father and king and solve his problems. So he nodded towards Jun Wulei with a sense of responsibility, and said honestly: "Yes, I will accompany you to fish today, but you need to follow my instructions and don't go into the water without authorization, because I don't know how to swim, and I am afraid of being rescued if something happens. Not for you. At lunch time, you need to come back to eat with me, so as not to make my aunt anxious. "

Jun Wulei saw that his little brows were frowning, and he explained the precautions to himself in a childlike voice, and felt amused: "You little Douding is more like a little old man than Little Fenghuang, and you are so troublesome when you take care of things. Okay, okay Come on, don't be naughty, just follow me to play!"

Even though it was early summer, the water in the pond was still very cold, but Jun Wulei was not afraid of the cold, he was obviously good at water, so he had a great time playing.

Although Ziyang grew up in the mountains, but he can't swim, he chased Jun Wulei all the way, not daring to let him out of his sight for a moment, seeing him gliding around in the water as nimbly as a loach, holding his small fist in the water The shore walked restlessly in small steps, ready to run back to the palace at any time to call for help.

In the afternoon, the two of them sneaked back and entered the kitchen again.Because the old boy said he wanted to stew fish soup for 'Su'er' and Xiao Fenghuang, but the kitchen staff turned their backs on their backs, and Xiao Fenghuang really turned black when he found out.

"Stand up straight against the corner of the wall." Hua Niansu put her hands behind her back, looked at the one big and one small who had been smudged into big faces by the smoke, with a serious expression: "Have you ever thought about what to do if your hair is burnt? "

Jun Wulei stood obediently against the wall, and muttered to Ziyang who was punished to stand next to him: "I told you earlier, don't tell that girl Xinfang, telling her is equivalent to telling Little Phoenix, so you won't have to make a fuss again some."

The little man in Ziyang's heart had two lines of lasagna tears of grief and indignation, did I want to tell my aunt?Your old man’s soup is so big that the roof is almost on fire, and the flames are soaring, can I hide it?

"No whispering." Hua Niansu raised her voice, and the two immediately stood upright.

"Brother, today is... I suggested to cook fish soup, I know I was wrong, please punish me, I am willing to be punished in place of your father." Ziyang knelt down on one knee like a servant in the palace , clasping his fists in front of his chest.

Seeing his small body trembling with fear, Hua Niansu couldn't help sighing, stepped forward to hug him, and patted his back comfortingly: "You are my companion, that is, my brother, aren't you? Those servants in the palace don’t need to kneel to me unless they make an unforgivable mistake, but remember clearly?”

Breathing in the sweet orchid fragrance from the young man, Zi Yang nodded with his arms around his neck, his mood immediately relaxed, his little head slumped listlessly on his shoulders.After staring at the old boy in fear for a whole day, he finally survived without any danger. The little guy really did his best...

Seeing that the little guy was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, Hua Niansu had no choice but to end the lecture early, glanced at Jun Wulei, and sighed leisurely: "Okay, that's it for today, father and king will go to bed earlier, tomorrow After breakfast, go to the study and copy the Book of Songs."

Hearing that he was going to be punished for copying books, Jun Wulei's face collapsed, as ugly as swallowing a fly.

Hua Niansu pretended not to see, handed the little guy who had dozed off in her arms to Xinfang who had been guarding outside the house, turned around and went back to the room, took her father's hand and sent him back to the bedroom to rest.

After arranging Jun Wulei, Hua Niansu came out and said to Xin Fang who was waiting by the side: "Tonight, please trouble Aunt Xin to take care of Yang'er, I will wait for the father to go to bed, and ask someone to move all the books in my house to you." Come to the royal father's bedroom."

Xinfang nodded, and said again worryingly: "Young master, your complexion is not very good recently, don't worry too much, you do everything yourself, those in the court, those in the palace, the master's, Master Ziyang's, If you spend too much effort, your body will not be able to bear it."

Hua Niansu smiled silently, unable to hide the exhaustion in the smile, and said softly: "These are all my responsibilities, and I need to pay more attention, which is just as it should be. Don't worry, aunt, I have my own sense of propriety, and I don't have to worry about it." I worry."

Xinfang looked at the slender young man in front of her, feeling distressed in her heart, and wanted to hold him in her arms like in the past, give him comfort and strength, and soothe his exhaustion, but the young man in front of her now The status is different, but a person with such a soft heart wants to become the commander of thousands of monsters. There are so many people around him, none of them need to support their families, and they all rely on his protection.

The demon territory is vast, but not peaceful.In recent years, internal and external troubles have continued year after year, political turmoil and conflicts have continued, nothing that does not require him to work hard, sleep and eat every day, he really pushed himself to the extreme, and did not dare to slack off.Thinking of the old and the young at home causing trouble everywhere and making him worry all the time, Xinfang couldn't help but complain that the sleepless Lord Demon King had come to the house.

But she knows that these words can only be hidden in her heart after all, and she can't say them.Xinfang sighed, didn't say anything, went out and asked someone to bring the official documents, and then ordered someone to fetch water for Hua Niansu to wash.

Hua Niansu leaned over and tucked the quilt for Jun Wulei who was sleeping soundly, got up and said to Xin Fang who was behind her, "Thanks to Aunt Xin for taking care of me these days, Su'er thanked Aunt Xin for my father."

Xinfang glanced at the gray-haired man on the bed, and couldn't help asking: "Is the Lord's illness still not improving? Are you still unable to remember anything?"

Hua Niansu nodded, as if she was in a daze, and it took a while before she said: "I have seen it with Xugu Miracle Doctor, and it is still the same. What happened to Daddy back then was a big blow to King Father. The power is too strong, and after so many years, even the genius doctor Xugu is helpless, he can only use acupuncture and medicine to maintain the status quo and avoid aggravating the madness."

Xinfang had also heard about that incident back then.It is said that after Jun Wulei woke up, he was already in the human world. He suddenly heard that the stone room where Hua Feibai was located had already sunk to the bottom of the lake, and his whereabouts are still unknown. Piercing!

The huge stimulation made him dizzy, and the powerful spiritual power almost ran away out of control, and his life was almost destroyed. Fortunately, the clear cry of the infant young master pulled back his collapsed nerves, and he forcibly sealed his own power at the very moment, so that he was avoided. A catastrophe.But under the huge stimulation, he completely closed his consciousness, unwilling to face the world where he lost his beloved, and became insane, becoming the foolish old boy who only lives in his own world.

Xinfang sighed, and looked at the boy in front of her with pity: "Young master, it's really hard for you."

"Aunt Xin, why are you so sad again?" Hua Niansu didn't expect her to be so emotional today, and a trace of warmth rose in her heart: "Father has been ill for many years, and I have long been used to it, and I don't force it so much. , as long as he is healthy and healthy every day, and stays happily by my side, I will always take care of him, whether he recognizes me or not, he is my king father."

Xinfang couldn't help but choked up, thinking that Hua Niansu not only never enjoyed the love of her father when she was born, but also took up responsibilities that didn't belong to him prematurely.

Once upon a time in the human world, he led his delirious father to struggle for survival, and later returned to the palace to regain power and worked hard for the foundation left by the eldest son. He still has no complaints about the hardships he has experienced.He has a pure and soft heart, a generous and loving temperament, but in order to protect his family, he put away all the softness in his heart, forced himself to harden his heart, picked up a sharp knife and stepped on blood, and walked to this supreme position step by step. It's just to give my father a truly safe living environment.

Since when did the smile on his face fade away little by little, and the brilliance in his eyes dimmed bit by bit.After returning to Wan Yao City, he used his young and immature shoulders to survive for three years. It seemed that all the hardships had melted away with the passage of time, and even the occasional weakness and injuries disappeared. Sick, having nightmares, exhausted physically and mentally, he just sleeps, takes a breath, opens his eyes, and everything goes on as usual, as if the sky is falling, and he can't hurt him in the slightest, and he will always be relied on by everyone around him.

Such a tough and forbearing child, how could she not feel sorry for her?

"Okay, Aunt Xin, you should go to bed early too. I have something to discuss with the ministers tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to check the morning homework of Father Wang and Yang'er. Please tell Aunt Xin to Mr. Situ and ask him to help you." bother."

Hua Niansu stepped forward, took Xinfang's hand and shook it twice as she did when she was a child, making her happy. Seeing that her mood had recovered, she let go and sent her outside the door.

That night, in the demon king's bedroom, a candle light was dimly lit until the middle of the night before it gradually dimmed.
