Just don't get divorced [Interstellar]

Walking into the familiar carved gate, the emperor was already sitting on the side waiting for them.

He was wearing a loose and comfortable cotton shirt, holding a book in his hand, and a pair of boundless eyes on the bridge of his nose. His movements were casual and stretched. At first glance, if it weren't for the lines at the corners of his eyes, he would have looked exactly like Jin Heng usually at home. exactly the same.

Yan Shuqing was in a daze for a moment, and couldn't help but stare at the emperor one more time.

He still looks mighty and tall, but he is thinner and older than a year ago. His shrewd and old-fashioned eyes are a little cloudy, and he can faintly see a bit of aging. Yan Shuqing did not forget the first time he saw this man here. When he was the emperor, he was dressed in a splendid attire, looking down on all living beings from above, but now he took off his domineering attire, but he seemed to have stepped off a high platform and turned into an ordinary elder.

At this time, the emperor raised his head when he heard the movement, and the two quickly knelt down to salute, "Chen Jin Heng/Yan Shuqing, send your majesty greetings."

The emperor didn't say anything for a moment, staring at the two of them for a moment before saying in a deep voice, "Get up, you two and I don't have to see each other anymore."

Jin Heng didn't move, and still knelt on the ground with his head down, "Your Majesty is the king, and I dare not overstep."

The emperor looked at Jin Heng, his eyes shifted from his tall and straight body to the corners of his tightly pursed mouth, "You have already saluted, and I didn't presume to say anything, I will let you get up."

After hearing this, Yan Shuqing couldn't help but secretly glanced at the emperor. His face was still icy cold, which made him feel tense. Just when he was about to worry that this was a "banquet for a grand family", he suddenly noticed The emperor's right hand, which was tightly gripping the armrest of the chair, was trembling slightly.

Yan Shuqing was taken aback, at this time Jin Heng was still kneeling on the ground and said in a business-like manner, "Your Majesty, courtesy cannot be revoked, besides, I have been forced to leave my mother planet for more than a year, and I have not greeted you face to face during this period, and I am very scared Now that I see Shengyan, I don't dare to do anything casually, I wonder what your Majesty's order is for Weichen and Shuqing to enter the palace together?"

These words are respectful and beautiful, and people can't find any faults. If it were for anyone else, I am afraid that they are words from the heart, but these words come out of Jin Heng's mouth, but they are hidden in the mouth, and every sentence is insinuating. What the emperor did to him and Yan Shuqing.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the emperor's face paled instantly, and he slammed the table, pointing at Jin Heng, and was about to yell, but when he saw the straight backs of the two, he swallowed the words again, and sighed, Rubbing his forehead, he said, "...Jin Heng, apart from these empty courtesy, don't we, uncle and nephew, have anything else to say?"

Jin Heng also knelt on the ground with the other leg propped on the ground, half lying on the ground and made a big salute, saying word by word, "Your Majesty thanked you for speaking out justly at the press conference, helping ministers and Shuqing to be acquitted of treason charges." , Your Majesty's grace, I can't repay you, and I will die after doing my best."

"Jin Heng!" The emperor couldn't help but slapped the table and stood up, his thin back was a little stooped, "Shut your mouth, I didn't ask you to come here to listen to your useless nonsense. of!"

Jin Heng's expression remained unchanged, his black pupils were condensed, he slowly stood up and bowed, "Since your Majesty doesn't want to see me, then I will leave now."

As he spoke, he pulled Yan Shuqing who was beside him, turned around and left, without looking at the emperor again from the beginning to the end.

Just now, as an "outsider", Yan Shuqing really didn't want to get involved in other people's housework. After all, if he couldn't say a word well, he might be a double-faced person. However, apart from his status as a relative of the emperor, Jin Heng was still a soldier. The attitude of the boss is a bit too sharp.

He pulled him, shook his head slightly, Jin Heng gave Yan Shuqing a look in disbelief, and said in a deep voice, "You don't have to worry about me, I know you are more uncomfortable here than I am, we don't mind this, I will take you away."

"Let him go." The emperor said in a deep voice, his hand on crutches trembling with anger, "You stay, Shuqing, I have something in my heart that I want to tell you, this kid can get out if he wants to."

"We don't listen to what you say in your heart, and I won't be stupid again, even if you drive me away, leaving Shuqing alone."

After saying this, he dragged Yan Shuqing out without looking back.

"You—!" The emperor was anxious, his body swayed suddenly, and he fell onto the chair all of a sudden, his face lost any color in an instant, his chest heaved violently, as if he was about to be out of breath.

The attendant next to him screamed and hurried to support him. Yan Shuqing was startled, and hurriedly brought a cup of hot tea to the emperor's mouth. Jin Heng next to him turned pale and was about to take a step forward, but forced him He nailed himself firmly in place.

"What's going on with His Majesty's body?" Yan Shuqing couldn't help asking.

The attendant next to him couldn't help saying, "...Your Majesty, this is an old problem. I have been suffering from heart palpitations and shortness of breath for the past year. The doctor said it was caused by overthinking and mental exhaustion. Your Majesty already has heart disease, and it has become more and more serious during this period of time. cross……"

"Shut up! Cough...Did I tell you to speak?" The emperor coughed a few times, glared at the attendants, and glanced at Yan Shuqing, a little uncomfortable flashed across his face, "I'm in good health, don't listen to this The servants are talking nonsense."

Yan Shuqing stared at his trembling fingers and the tea in the cup, and couldn't help but whisper, "Since your majesty is in good health, why do you drink herbal tea? Is this Kuding that lowers blood pressure?"

The emperor was taken aback by these words, and then he frowned and waved his hand at Yan Shuqing in displeasure, "It's not your turn to worry about my affairs, forget it, I have nothing to tell you, you can go down with Jin Heng .”

After saying this, he rubbed his forehead, threw the cup on the table casually, and made a loud "bang", shaking the table and even knocking over several covered plates next to it.

At first glance, there was a lot of food on the plate, and it was still steaming. It was obvious that the emperor specially invited them here today, maybe just to have lunch with them, but his attitude was completely unrecognizable Clue.

For a while, Yan Shuqing was speechless. He looked at Jin Heng who was standing at the door with a frozen face and didn't speak, and then at the emperor next to him with a frozen face, suddenly felt a little funny.

No wonder Duke Jin Rong has such a lively and cheerful personality, and he can give birth to such an awkward and weird son, Jin Heng. Probably, his arrogant and domineering temper is completely in line with his emperor's uncle.

Thinking of this, Yan Shuqing suddenly felt a little relieved, and the subconscious nervousness when he entered the door just now disappeared, "Didn't your majesty say that you have something in your heart that you want to tell me?"

"I have nothing to say to you, let's go."

"Did you hear that? Little soldiers like us are worthy of talking to His Majesty." Jin Heng smiled sarcastically, and stepped forward to grab Yan Shuqing's hand.

At this time, Yan Shuqing avoided him dexterously, and looked directly at the emperor without flinching, "Since your Majesty has nothing to say to my minister, I should dare to say a few words to your majesty. If your majesty's hearing is really harsh, you can always Drag the minister out and shoot him."

While talking, he ignored Jin Heng's persuasive eyes and said word by word, "Your Majesty, maybe the minister is light-hearted, but since some things have become entangled, if you don't talk about it, the conflict will only get deeper and deeper, so the minister must say it out." , for more than a year, I have always hated you."

One sentence made everyone stunned on the spot, and the emperor grabbed the armrest of the chair tightly. When Jin Heng thought he would lose his temper, he tightly pursed the corners of his mouth and did not say a word.

"Your Majesty's birthday is nearly a hundred years old. In this life, there must have been someone you want to cherish. I think that if someone forces you to be separated from the person you cherish, you may not be able to see each other in this life. I don't know how you feel in your heart? I understand. As the king of a country, you have your original intention and reason, even if you don’t have a reason, you are the emperor, so you can do whatever you want, and we little shrimps are nothing.”

"You can treat others as your own. Since your majesty has done this, don't blame us for leaving you. The world and your family may not be able to have both, but you are sitting on the world by hurting your family, and at the same time, you expect Jin Heng to love you as before. I respect you, and I even have to greet you with a smile when I see you again, don't you think these requests are too extravagant?"

"I don't know why you asked us to come here today. If it's for a reunion, we'll stay. If it's for a mission, then we'll leave. If you have any orders in the future, the subordinates will definitely do their best. But this palace courtyard, the minister really I can't bear it, and I dare not come again next time."

After saying this, Yan Shuqing knelt on the ground and made a big salute, then turned around and walked to Jin Heng's side and took his hand.

Jin Heng looked at him deeply, and his pupils shook uncontrollably. It was obvious that Yan Shuqing was the one who was hurt the most from the beginning to the end. He could just throw up his sleeves and leave now, instead of facing his "enemy" here, but he was willing For yourself, compromise to this point.

The emperor hung his head, clutching the armrest tightly, and fell into a long silence.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Yan Shuqing pulled Jin Heng outside without saying a word.

Staring at the backs of the two people who were drifting away, the emperor who was sitting alone couldn't help but stop them, "Wait!"

The two of them paused, but neither of them turned their heads. After a long time, the emperor said in a hoarse voice, "...do you two have to get along with me like this?"

"Uncle." Jin Heng sighed, and finally said these two words, "So many things have happened, what do you want us to do? Since you don't treat me and Shuqing as family members, many things can't go back .”

After saying this, the two walked forward side by side, the gate was surrounded by a dazzling light and shadow, slowly devouring the two of them, as if it was impossible to come back after going out like this, the emperor's heart suddenly tightened, and he couldn't help it He said in a hoarse voice, "...But I have already regretted it."

The hoarse and low voice floated in the air like a sigh, but both Yan Shuqing and Jin Heng heard it.

The emperor sighed, walked up to Yan Shuqing step by step on crutches, looked at him and said in a low voice, "I... have thought a lot this year, maybe it's because I'm getting old and worrying more. The incident became known to everyone in Cangjian, and the military and the royal family were all involved. With my hostility, I listened to the rumors outside and subconsciously thought that you would become Jin Heng's burden and destroy the empire I was a good general, so I sent you away without hesitation, but I found out later that it was actually me who had no eyes."

"Over the past year, I have been aware of every move of the two of you in Falcon. I have watched you step by step, go deep into dangerous situations and make outstanding achievements. Only then did I understand that short-sightedness almost destroyed the two good generals of the empire. It's actually me."

Speaking of this, the emperor tightly grasped the crutches, his rickety body trembling slightly, "I'm old, and I don't have time to regret doing foolish things. What Shu Qing said is right, I was too greedy and wanted too much. , but now I'm not greedy anymore, and I don't expect you to laugh and not have any resentment towards my old bones, I just want you to have a meal with my uncle, okay?"

The aloof emperor suddenly said such words, so that the two of them could no longer refuse, and when they came back to their senses, they were already sitting at the dining table.

It was supposed to be a long-awaited and joyous family dinner, but now it became a little silent, and a table of delicacies were stuffed into the mouth but could not be swallowed.

No one knows how the meal went. When it was about to end, the three of them hadn't even said a word. I can't help but feel a little bitter about the happy memories of eating together with the younger generation.

When the last dish of hibiscus egg drop soup was served, the emperor was in no mood to eat it. At this moment, the attendant next to him handed over two pills, "Your Majesty, it's time to take the medicine."

The emperor nodded indifferently, and just as he was about to put the pills into his mouth, Yan Shuqing put a bowl of egg drop soup in front of him, "Your Majesty, drink something hot before taking the medicine, it won't make you feel uncomfortable. "

The emperor was taken aback, he didn't expect that the first person to talk to him would be Yan Shuqing.

Feeling warm in his heart, he nodded and took the soup bowl. At this time, a custard roll was placed on his plate, "I haven't eaten a few bites all afternoon, and I don't eat pasta. The old stomach problem seems to be cured."

Throwing down the custard roll, Jin Heng retracted his chopsticks, his ears blushed imperceptibly, Yan Shuqing couldn't help laughing, the emperor froze for a moment, then took a long breath, bit the custard roll and After taking a sip of the soup, his eyes felt a little hot, "Okay, good boy."

The atmosphere eased after a meal. Although there was still a bit of embarrassment, it was much better than before. After dinner, the three of them fell into silence again. Yan Shuqing felt that the emperor and Jin Heng might need some time to relax alone. Feeling happy, he stood up and helped the attendants clear the table together.

Unexpectedly, the emperor suddenly grabbed his wrist, "You shouldn't be busy with these things, sit down, I have a few words to tell you."

Yan Shuqing sat next to him in a daze, the emperor winked at the attendants, then brought a vermilion box, opened it and saw that there was a green and transparent emerald pendant inside.

Jin Heng opened his eyes wide in surprise as soon as he looked at the things, and glanced at the emperor in disbelief.

This glance made Yan Shuqing a little uneasy for a moment, and at this moment, the emperor said in a deep voice, "My sister, Jin Heng's mother, is twins of the same egg. Grandma's two dragon and phoenix jade pendants were brought into the palace as a dowry because the mother's queen married the father's king."

"There are all kinds of new and valuable things in this palace, and this thing is not popular among the stars, but it is more or less a treasure of my grandmother and the queen mother. The mother always talked about it when she was alive, and she wanted the jade pendant as a dowry and dowry for me and my sister. I gave the phoenix among them to the queen, leaving only this Xianglong."

"My younger sister has been very playful since she was a child. She married a husband and spoiled her. Fortunately, she was safe after giving birth to Jin Heng, so when the queen mother was alive, she said that it is better to keep the jade pendant for my imperial sister. Marry a daughter-in-law for your grandson."

Speaking of the past, the emperor showed a slight smile on his vicissitudes of life, and his eyes became softer, "This flying dragon jade pendant has been kept in the palace for so many years, and my sister and Jin Rong are worried every day that Jin Heng can't find it. The object, I'm too lazy to ask me for this thing back, now that he has you, why don't I give it to you as a favor."

As he spoke, he pushed the box forward and placed it in front of Yan Shuqing.

The emerald green emerald exudes a bewitching color, a swimming dragon seems to jump in the sky, and the carving is lifelike, just by looking at it, you can tell how valuable this thing is.

Yan Shuqing was shocked, and sat there for a long time before quickly pushing the box back, shaking his head constantly, "This is too expensive, I can't take it, Your Majesty, give it to Jin Heng."

"If you give it to him, it's for you. If I say it's for you, it's for you."

The emperor's words obviously pleased Jin Heng, and he finally showed his first smile since entering the room, and glanced at Yan Shuqing, "You are so poor, and you haven't been paid in Falcon for more than one or two years, so give it away for nothing." You don’t want what’s given to you? Your head is flooded.”

If it wasn't for the emperor's presence, Yan Shuqing would have rolled his eyes, no matter how poor he was, he couldn't just take his mother-in-law's dowry!

"Your Majesty... this belongs to the Duchess, I really can't have it..."

The emperor coughed twice, "You don't have to worry that my sister will embarrass you. She is already thankful that Jin Heng can find someone. Besides, you killed Lielong and saved my life. I owe you too much by repaying virtue with grievances. I'm afraid you don't like it, and I don't know what else I can give you, so I can only borrow flowers and offer blessings to you, if you don't accept it, you still blame me in your heart, right?"

Yan Shuqing stopped hating it a long time ago, so why would she think so, subconsciously shook her head, stared at the hot jade pendant, hesitated for a moment and could only accept it, "...then...thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor couldn't help laughing, "You're still called His Majesty? It's time to call him Uncle."

Yan Shuqing's face turned red uncontrollably. He glanced at Jin Heng, whose mouth was curled up, and scratched at his hair, so... he was somehow accepted by Jin Heng's family... right?

Look to the sky...

***

After putting the jade pendant in his body pocket and changing his name to the emperor's uncle, Yan Shuqing still felt unreal, but after such an episode, the atmosphere in the room became much warmer, although Jin Heng was still taciturn. Talk less, the emperor is also a stubborn person, but the two of them have been able to chat a few words in a neutral manner.

Yan Shuqing knew in his heart that the knot between the two of them was himself, and now even he, the client, had let go, and he didn't want their uncle and nephew to continue to stalemate, so he worked hard to activate the atmosphere, and talked about the hardships he experienced in the Falcon team. Force the years.

The emperor obviously likes to hear this, and has been listening with great interest. Although he knew how dangerous the falcon assessment was before and what the specific content of the assessment was, it was far less intuitive than what Yan Shuqing said. Regarding the murder of Shan, the emperor locked his brows tightly.

"You say that the ghost in the Falcon team is Han Ming who later hijacked you in Yaxi?"

Jin Heng nodded, and said in a deep voice, "At the beginning, Shuqing and I were tampered with at the terminal, and were chased and killed all the way. All of these are inseparable from him, but..."

"It's just that this inner ghost may have another one." Before he finished speaking, Yan Shuqing also expressed his guess.

"That's right. Although Han Ming has been by our side during Operation Canglan Mountain, it makes sense to know our route and arrange an ambush in advance, but it doesn't make sense and Jin Heng's terminal and I will be tampered with. Han Ming It’s just an ordinary member, how could he have such a great ability to attack in our terminal.”

Jin Heng nodded in a deep voice, "I also doubted this question. At first I thought he was in the same dormitory with us, and he did it secretly while we were sleeping, but Shuqing and I have always been vigilant, and the terminal never left our hands. , if someone approached in the middle of the night, it is impossible for us not to know, so I guess there must be someone else who is doing things at the terminal, the most important thing is Han Ming, an enemy spy, how could he sneak into Falcon so easily."

"Even if he is good at skills and has actually passed the assessment, he still needs a qualification review before the assessment. Both Shuqing and I were recruited by the military by ourselves. What about Han Ming? And who did he rely on?" It's such a big deal."

After hearing this, the emperor was silent, and he spoke after a while, "You should tell me that you already have a suspect. Tell me, who is it?"

Yan Shuqing and Jin Heng looked at each other and said at the same time:

"General Chen."

"General Chen."

"It's really him."

The emperor snorted coldly, "If it was him, it would be easy to say, I had already surrounded the entire Falcon team on the day you were rescued, Chen Shaoxiong probably thought that you would definitely not be able to escape from Axi's palm, let alone You have suspected him for a long time, so you returned to the Falcon base without any fear."

"When the military department secretly surrounded Falcon, he was unprepared. There was even an encrypted message on the terminal that had not been sent. Unfortunately, our people were one step late and only captured fragments of the message, but could not decipher the specific content. I tied him up just in case, I didn't expect to catch the right person, but I think he might not be the final black hand, what do you think?"

This is exactly what Jin Heng wanted to say. He nodded, thinking of Han Ming's thoughts that he didn't reveal before he died, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes fiercely, "When I was kidnapped by Han Ming to Yaxi, I'm pretty sure he has a boss, people at the base call him 'Army', I don't know what his background is, but he seems to know everything about me, and Han Ming completely obeys his orders."

Yan Shuqing was far less clear about Ya Xi's affairs than Jin Heng, but he couldn't help frowning when he heard the last sentence, "You mean Han Ming was controlled by him? How long did this control last? Did it start with Xiji, or did it start from the day Han Ming joined Falcon...?"

Thinking of this possibility, the two fell silent at the same time. If it was the latter, then this interlocking conspiracy would be too terrifying...

"Others are the pawns, and I play chess. The thread buried in this 'army seat' may be more than that."

The emperor opened his mouth faintly, and his old eyes narrowed, "On Canglan Mountain, Chen Shaoxiong is in charge of arranging tasks for you and driving you to a 'dead end', and Han Ming is in charge of coordinating internally and externally, contacting the enemy country, so how do you explain the 'cooperation' of the Alpha Territory? "

"Cooperate?" Jin Heng frowned suddenly.

Yan Shu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "...the garrison of each affiliated planet has its own complete emergency system, and Canglan Mountain is the last barrier of the Alpha garrison. If you cross the Canglan, the entire garrison will be exposed. Under enemy fire, it was impossible for them not to have a large garrison on the hill."

"But when the two of us were on the snowy mountain that day, apart from the few skeletons we encountered in the outpost, where did we see a garrison? If it weren't for the serious defensive loopholes in the Alpha Territory, everything that day was because they intentionally For it!"

The emperor's words completely awakened him. Before, he was only focused on immersing himself in Jin Heng's "death", and when he caught up with Juanjuan in his stomach, he didn't put his suspicious eyes on his own people at all. Now he suddenly remembered Only then did I realize that the whole thing was getting more and more complicated...

Jin Heng's face was completely gloomy, he pursed his lips tightly, and then said in a deep voice, "So, maybe this so-called 'Army Seat' is one of our own, and is hiding in the Alpha Territory?"

The emperor nodded, "I hope everything is our guess, but the matter has come to this point, it seems that this Alpha Territory has to go."

Speaking of this, he took a deep breath, with a tangled look on his face, pondered for a moment, waved his hands and said, "I will leave this matter to other people, you have just been seriously injured, so it is not suitable to be involved in it, let's do this for today Come on, go down and rest, let me think about it."

"Your Majesty, the enemy army has infiltrated our army. It may be risky to send other people there. It is the safest choice for the two of us to go."

The emperor naturally understands this truth, but he really doesn't want to put the two of them in danger again. When he was struggling, he sighed in his heart when he saw the resolute and persistent eyes of the two of them, that's all...

"Colonel Jin and Major Yan of the military department are ordered to go to the territory of Alpha to catch the ghost and bring him to justice, but this trip is dangerous, so don't venture in. Set off immediately at nine o'clock tomorrow!"
