Assassin Legend: Fluorescence

Tianshu Wang Mengzhang is afraid of the dark, this is known to all the servants of Tianshu Palace.From the Yizheng Palace to the bedroom, and then to the imperial garden, the lights of the Tianshu Palace have been turned on early and turned off late for many years, fearing that Meng Zhang will be trapped in the dark and suffer torture.

Many years ago, Meng Zhang was murdered by three great families. To save him, Zhong Kunyi, the senior doctor at that time, ordered Meng Zhang to feign death with medicine, and then dug him out of the ground, and resorted to the plan of escaping the shell and crossing the sea, and finally waited for the opportunity. And move, destroying the family and the big family.But no one expected that the buried Meng Zhang woke up early, unable to move in the dark sarcophagus, tortured, and left a great shadow ever since.

Now Master Zhong has become the king of Tianshu, and he is with Meng Zhang day and night, and Meng Zhang's fear of the dark rarely recurs.

Only this day, it got dark late in the hot summer, and the servants forgot to light the lamp in the midst of their busy schedule. When Meng Zhang raised his head from a pile of memorials, the hall was already pitch black.He was flustered and hurriedly left the memorial and walked out, but unexpectedly his footsteps became heavier and he couldn't reach the entrance of the hall no matter what.He barely held on to the beaded curtain to stabilize his figure, seeing the darkness in the room turn into pitch blackness, he tried to call the attendant but his lips trembled and he couldn't make a sound.

The patrolling guards passed by the entrance of the hall, thinking that there was no one in the room, so they closed the door.

The closed door cut off the last ray of light, and he couldn't see his fingers around him. It became more and more difficult for Meng Zhang to breathe, and he fell to the ground involuntarily.

Because the eyes cannot see and the mouth cannot speak, the ears become extremely sensitive.He could clearly hear the guards at the door complaining about the hot weather and the murmur of thick armor, the cicadas chirping in the trees outside, and the chief executive in the palace losing his temper in the distance and asking people to light up the lamp to look for the king's reprimand...Meng Zhang Breaking out in a cold sweat, I just felt physically and mentally exhausted and exhausted.

There was a flurry of footsteps from far to near, and then a familiar voice sounded - "Is the king inside?"

"……no……"

"Didn't I say that every part of the palace must be brightly lit at night, and every corner must also be lit! You—"

The visitor pushed open the door, walked in a few steps and tentatively called out - "Your Majesty... Zhang'er"

Meng Zhang opened his mouth, but no sound could be squeezed out of his throat.He was so anxious that his breathing became more and more disordered, and his fingers were unconsciously exerting force, and the bead curtain shook and made a slight rattling sound.

"Zhang'er—light up the candle!"

A tall figure ran over like flying, half kneeling on the ground, holding Meng Zhang tightly in his arms, stroking his back up and down to help him soothe his emotions, saying softly, "Don't be afraid, Zhang'er is not afraid" .

The person who came was Zhong Kunyi, the king of Tianshu.

Zhong Kunyi comforted Meng Zhang while kissing his temples.Meng Zhang has been crowned for several years, and his sideburns are always combed neatly.

Meng Zhang panted hard, and finally felt that he was alive, but his legs and feet were not strong yet, so he lazily nestled in Zhong Kunyi's arms, listening to the pounding heartbeat from his chest.

I don't know what happened, but the guards didn't bring a fire bag, and they searched the dark room for a long time but couldn't find it, so they had to go to the palace next door to get fire.

In the darkness, Meng Zhang grabbed Zhong Kunyi's arm and laughed softly: "It's weird too. Once you came in, the whole room lit up a lot."

Zhong Kunyi was amused by his words, and blamed helplessly: "I told you that when I come back to help correct the memorial, you insist on busying yourself, but you are busy until dark... Are you better now? Let me take you back to the bedroom. "

Meng Zhang's ears were hot, he shook his head and blamed: "No... the palace people will think about it..."

"But those idiots, I don't know when to light the lights..."

"It's okay, with you here, it will be over if you bear it."

While talking, there was another sound of footsteps, followed by a cheerful voice getting closer - "Father! Daddy! Are you here? See what I found for fun!"

Is a young handsome child.He jumped over the threshold and entered the room neatly, and saw Zhong Kunyi and Meng Zhang standing beside the bead curtain. He let go of his fingers to open the cloth bag in his palm, and scattered orange "starlight" immediately filled the room. the whole house.

"It's a firefly!" Tianshu Crown Prince Meng Zhiqi proudly showed off, "I caught it! Give it to my father!"

Meng Zhang's face became brighter and brighter under the fluorescent light, and he curled up his mouth and smiled.He turned his head to look at Zhong Kunyi, who also had a smile on his lips, and Meng Zhiqi, who was waving his arms and chasing fireflies not far away. He felt that his limbs gradually regained consciousness and were full of strength.

"This room is brighter..." Meng Zhang said with a smile, "I am no longer afraid of the dark."
