Rong Jian, who was timid and not brave enough, said: "Happy New Year, Ming Ye."

Perhaps the ancient people mostly wished for peace and health, and all the best. As a modern person, Rong JIan did not deliberately raise his vigilance in front of Mingye, which would expose these differences from ordinary people.

Akeno smiled, he also forgot those congratulatory words, and said, "Happy New Year, Your Highness."

Added another title: "Rong Jian."

Rong Jian didn't drink, but seemed a little drunk.

They spent this New Year's Eve together.

After Mingye left, on the night of New Year's Eve, Rong Jian didn't sleep for almost the whole night.

He couldn't fall asleep, and thought little by little of his past relationship with Ming Ye, and recalled those seemingly ordinary things. Now that he thinks about it, there are already signs.

On the night of the first snow, in the Lake Heart Pavilion, there was only each other's time, and Rong Jian asked Akino what kind of person he liked.

At that time, Rong Jian had already lost his selflessness, he subconsciously wanted to possess Ming Ye alone, he couldn't purely wish Ming Ye happiness, because he liked this person and his selfishness was too much.

Rong JIan at the time couldn't understand such selfishness that had never existed before and had no reason.

Seeing that she has lived to such an age and looks so good-looking, it is impossible to say that no one will chase her.When was in high school, received many love letters, and after college, it was even more exaggerated. The clubs or departments where roommates belonged to often came to ask for contact information.There are both men and women, with good family background, good-looking, gentle personality, and good at falling in love. The roommates introduced them with hype, but Rong Jian rejected them very simply. He didn't think about trying with anyone.

Because he has no feelings for those people, and he doesn't think there is any good in being in love, so it's good to be alone.

It turned out that just didn't like it.

Through the heavy curtains, the light from the burning lights outside also became blurred, but it also illuminated the surroundings, Rong Jian found it dazzling, and crossed his arms to cover his eyebrows and eyes.

After a while, Rong Jian got up from the bed, climbed onto the bed barefoot, opened the window, and stared at the osmanthus tree.

Akeno always stays on this tree, where he waits for himself.

Rong Jian tilted his head, he didn't think about anything, he leaned out, stretched out his hand, and tore off a bay leaf.

Snow fell from the trees.

Rong Jian held up the leaf, opened his mouth, and bit it lightly.

Although most of the snow has been shaken off, the entrance is still cold, the leaves smell bitter, and Rong JIan's tooth marks are left on them.

He shivered from the cold, and felt stupid for doing such a boring thing.

But still can't extinguish the fire.

Maybe that's what he is.

Rong Jian closed the window and put the bitten leaf on the window lattice.

He still kept thinking about Ming Ye.

If you say forever, you will believe it, if you say you will not do the same thing to others, you will believe it, if you say that the criterion for choosing a mate is to like yourself...

Rong JIan believed what Akino said.

But just like everyone's first love, Rong Jian is as overwhelmed as a high school student with first love.

He has a lot of kindness, but he likes very little, and he only gave it to Ming Ye.

Rong Jian was caught in a struggle, overconfident for a while, thinking that Ming Ye didn't even like himself, what else could he like.Occasionally, I feel that I am self-indulgent, and a person like Ming Ye should have high vision no matter how high he is.

There is also the most important problem that cannot be ignored, that is, my gender is not right...

Can Akino accept same-sex?

Tossing and turning, losing his mind, hesitating, heart beating like a drum, these complex feelings, Rong Jian has tasted all this night.

During the Chinese New Year, as the only princess in the palace, Rong Jian was really busy.

In addition to socializing, Rong Jian is also responsible for the sacrifices of the ancestors of the Rong family.These were all done by the Empress Dowager in the past, and she would not let others go, and Fei Jin has no surname Rong, and has no right to intervene at this time.This year the queen mother is willing to delegate power, probably because she feels that Rong Jian has indeed grown up, and there are endless discussions about his marriage outside, and her biggest hope is the child, so she wants to give Rong Jian some leverage.

Rong JIan was busy without touching the ground, discussing matters with the officials of the Ministry of Rituals. All the officials, big and small, met all over the place, so that such a big matter of sacrifice was completed properly. For a while, both inside and outside the court praised the long princess for her rigorous work, exactly.

During the period, also consulted Ming Ye many times. Rong JIan is a salty fish. It is okay for him to talk with people one-on-one. His little experience is not enough to host such a big event with one-to-many.But the advantage is that the long princess has an honorable status, and Rong JIan is also very good at putting on a show, and his condescending posture is enough to frighten a group of officials with malicious intentions.As for the more high-end method, it was Akino's idea to deal with conflicts and buck-passing between officials.

Rong JIan followed suit, and later he did well on his own.

Ming Ye and Qi Zeqing both think that Rong Jian is very smart, but it's not unreasonable, it's just that Rong Jian is generally unwilling to do those things.

However, all communication with Akeno is through letters.

Akeno is a newly promoted conductor. He was on duty during the Chinese New Year and never took a break.But because of this, Jin Yiwei's sources are familiar with the officials of all sizes in the sacrificial ceremony presided over by Rong Jian.

They only met a few times in public and spoke a few words.

Rong Jian misses him very much, there is no one who does not miss the person he likes.

It wasn't until the new year was over and school started again that Rong Jian had free time, and he thought about asking Mingye to meet.

But the place of appointment is neither Changle Hall nor Lake Heart Pavilion.I went to those places a lot, and Rong JIan also felt it was unfair, why Mingye always came to the place where he lived, he hadn't been to Mingye's residence a few times.

Obviously the place where he lives now is very expensive, and there are many eyes staring at him. If Rong JIan goes, he will definitely attract attention, so we made an appointment to meet in Mingye's old courtyard.

After class that day, Rong Jian packed up his things, and planned to go to the Lake Heart Pavilion to read for half an hour, and then went to the garden to wait for Ming Ye, but Qi Zeqing stopped him unexpectedly.

Rong Jian had no choice but to turn around and go back, following behind Qi Zeqing.

Qi Zeqing was preoccupied and extremely excited, Cui Gui entrusted him with the important task of informing the long princess.

They went to the place where they had classes in spring and summer, and the light-shielding veils around them had been raised and fixed, probably because they were afraid of being damaged by the strong winter wind.It was impossible to hide and eavesdrop.

The most dangerous place is also the safest place. With Qi Zeqing's identity, it is not easy to ask Rong JIan to meet in private, and he is even more afraid of being seen by others when he passes on the post. This is solid evidence.But here it is different, what they have done, others can see at a glance, as long as you keep your voice down, don't be heard by outsiders, no one will notice anything strange.

Qi Zeqing invited Rong Jian to sit across from him, and as soon as he sat down, he said, "Your Highness has done the sacrificial ceremony very safely this time, and everyone inside and outside the court praised him full of praise..”

Rong Jian didn't care too much: "It's all gentlemen who taught well."

Qi Zeqing didn't take it seriously, and continued: "The chief minister has something to say, and there are many discussions in the court at this time, and he wants to choose a son-in-law for His Highness. But your highness doesn't need to care about those, the chief minister will take care of it. At the moment, your highness only needs to study hard., good ministers and good generals will definitely support His Highness."

Rong Jian was taken aback, the previous sentence could still be said to be Qi Zeqing's slip of the tongue, but the latter sentence was too obvious to be ignored.

...Why did the situation turn around completely beyond his expectation?

That's not what was written in "The Evil Seed". Hei Yueguang had no power in his hands until his unexpected death, so he died so easily, not to mention the fact that the civil servants supported him on the throne of God.

Speaking of this, Qi Zeqing couldn't wait to say: "Would Your Highness be willing to take that position? It's not about listening to the government behind a curtain after getting married and having children, but really controlling the government as an emperor."

Rong Jian was stunned: "Sir, I haven't thought about it."

Maybe he was too surprised, he didn't even use his usual self-proclaim, he was just shocked.

After a while, he added another sentence: "I don't have that wish either. The throne belongs to itself."

There will be a very capable person on the throne.

According to the book, Rong Shihuai was actually very capable, but he died too early and had no successor, and the next twenty years were no different from the previous dynasty.Later, with Ming Ye, revitalizing the country, expelling the bad people, and determined to open up, it can be considered as a continuation of the past, and Ming Ye was only 30 years old at the time, and it would take a long time to take care of the country before this troubled world can be truly ended.

This is what Rong JIan said from the perspective of a book traveler, Qi Zeqing was in it, so naturally he couldn't understand it.

He thought that when Rong Jian said "the throne belongs to itself", he meant that he was willing to give up the throne, or that he was timid and retreated.

And now there is no way to go back.After Cui Gui explained Fei Shichun's life experience, everyone understood what Fei Jinyi wanted to do. When they reached the edge of the cliff, there was no way to retreat and they had to forge ahead.

Qi Zeqing couldn't believe it for a moment.He can't understand.Rong Jian has a benevolent heart, he is very kind, and can empathize with others, and will not feel that he is superior to others, which is a very rare quality in the royal family.How many emperors don't eat minced meat, or are arrogant and self-confident.Rong Jian is very suitable to become an emperor, as long as he does not listen to one side or believe in another, and does not collude with the aristocratic family, it is not impossible for Da Yin's country to turn the tide.

Qi Zeqing said sadly: "Your Highness bears the royal blood and is supported by all people. Naturally, he should protect all people. How sad the world is today, the exploitation of the family, and the iron hooves of the northern border almost crush them. Can't Your Highness see it?"?”

Rong Jian was questioned by him, but in fact, he only wore it for less than half a year, and he was a long princess for a short time, whether it was dressing up as a boss in women's clothing, or busy with the affairs of Jinyiwei, it was all to survive.But this is not a book, those people are not the background of a few words, but a real place.

He wanted to say that someone would rectify it in the future, but suddenly it occurred to him that Ming Ye had already become a royal guard, and it seemed out of reach to abandon the capital and start a riot.

In a daze, Rong Jian stood up and staggered a bit. He supported the pillar on one side, and reluctantly said: "I understand what you said, sir. But this matter is of great importance. I need to think carefully and talk about it later."

Qi Zeqing looked at his expression and found that what he said did not seem to be a lie against his will, Rong JIan really thought so.

He didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow, the joy was probably because Rong Jian was not greedy for power, once he heard about it, he couldn't care less about anything and wanted to become emperor, the sad one was that Rong Jian had no idea about the throne.

Qi Zeqing said: "Your Highness has to think about it carefully. After all, this matter is not only related to your own body, but also related to the inside and outside of the court, and it is also related to the people of the world."

It was dusk, and when Akino was on a business trip, he had a few words with his subordinates, and it was no different from usual, but actually went to the old courtyard where he used to live.

From a guard in the inner court to a commanding officer, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has of course refurbished everything, so the old things are still here, nothing has changed, but no one has lived in it for a month, and everything in the house is covered.dust.

Ming Ye raised his eyes and saw that Rong JIan was sitting on the not-so-soft bed, his skirt was hanging down the edge of the bed, he was in a daze, his brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about something important.

He walked up to Rong Jian and asked softly, "What's the matter? Your Highness looks so unhappy."

When Rong Jian heard his words, he suddenly came back to his senses, but he didn't answer, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Ming Ye took off the knife hanging by his side and put it on the table, probably because he was afraid of accidentally touching Rong Jian, the scabbard was too cold, and there was no charcoal fire in the room, so it was cold in the first place.

Rong Jian hesitated for a while, then shook his head: "Nothing."

Ming Ye took off his cloak and put it on Rong Jian.

Rong Jian's stature is really not small, he is considered tall even among men, if he is not really thin, and his appearance is different from ordinary people's beauty, coupled with his usual caution, he would have been noticed something wrong long ago.

However, being covered in Mingye's cloak, Rong JIan looked very small, he looked up at Mingye with his chin resting on his hands.

Before talking with Qi Zeqing, when he didn't think about those things, Rong Jian only had the joy of meeting the person he likes, but now the moment he sees Ming Ye, the taste of bay leaf tastes in his heart.

is bitter.

Rong Jian still felt that he had done something wrong. In the novel "The Evil Seed", Ming Ye was the hero of the novel. The author arranged a perfect life for him, but he changed all these unintentionally.

This person is someone he likes.

Rong Jian knew that his question was very strange, and also knew that it would arouse Ming Ye's vigilance, but he couldn't care about anything else, and on impulse, he still asked: "Ming Ye, do you want to be the emperor?"

The small room fell into silence, Akeno did not speak, Rong Jian could only hear his own rapid breathing.

However, Ming Ye was silent for not too long, he lowered his eyes, and asked very seriously: "Why does Your Highness think that I want to be the emperor?"

Rong JIan was at a loss for words, he didn't know how to explain.

He tilted his head to look around.

This cramped old courtyard contains Mingye's past, representing the years of Mingye's training.Before that, when the story of "The Evil Seed" hadn't started, Akeno had never lived a life that could be called comfortable.Even in the years after the incident in Qidu, he was alone, lived and slept in the open, fought on horseback all the year round, and never let go of the knife in his hand.

Akino is very powerful, but also had a hard life.

The throne is not fate's reward to Ming Ye, but the result of Ming Ye's hard work.

Rong Jian wanted to say, you should have been the emperor in the first place, and as the hero of Shuangwen in the book, you got all the best, and in this real dynasty, your name will go down in history and shine brightly in the annals of history.

Maybe Akino didn't care, but those things belonged to him.He has such abilities, talents, and conduct that no one in this world can compare to him.

Rong Jian didn't dare to face it, nor was he willing to face the current situation, he made everything worse, he changed Ming Ye's life.

But these words could not be uttered, Rong Jian lowered his head and said slowly: "It's nothing, just asking."

Akino simply didn't seem to want an answer, Rong JIan said it if he wanted to, he didn't care, he didn't care.

Rong Jian's mood became irreversibly depressed, he hugged his knees, and his whole body became a ball, maybe this would give him a sense of security.

Akeno looked at him quietly and waited for a while.

However, Rong Jian was deeply involved.

Ming Ye frowned, he pinched Rong Jian's chin with his hand, and lifted Rong Jian's face up, Ming Ye had great strength, Rong Jian couldn't dodge.

Occasionally, Akino will show an overly tough side. He is always gentle towards Rong Jian, but in fact he is not like this in his bones. He is not pretending at ordinary times, and he is not losing patience now. This is his nature.

When they looked at each other, Rong Jian's eyes were misty and wet, as if his heart had also become damp, he said softly: "You thought you would regret it."

He didn't know what would happen to Mingye, but he cared a lot, and he felt that Mingye would regret it.

That's what Akino should have gotten.

Ming Ye was a little helpless, he didn't know how Rong Jian could think about it for so long, a future and uncertain throne, Rong Jian insisted on giving it to himself.

He didn't know where Rong Jian came from, how he learned those things, why he was so stupid and stubborn.

But if a person can only walk one way in his life, then Ming Ye has long ago chosen to be by Rong Jian's side without thinking.

Mingye raised his eyebrows and lowered his head.

Rong JIan's thick and slender eyelashes seemed to touch Ming Ye's eyebrows, making Ming Ye feel itchy. He touched it with his palm many times before, but he never felt this way.

Rong Jian blinked as if avoiding it.

Mingye said casually: "Don't think about it, and don't be unhappy about those things."

Rong Jian's face was raised so high that even his neck hurt, his lips were pursed, his jaw was tense, with beautiful lines and contours.

Ming Ye was too close, for a moment, Rong Jian even had the illusion that Ming Ye seemed to want to kiss herself.

Is it because you like it?How could there be such an unrealistic idea.

But soon, Mingye raised his head again, the distance between them was not that close, Mingye was still so calm and rational, an expression that Rong JIan couldn't see through.

In fact, it is not an illusion. Rong JIan has a talent beyond ordinary people in terms of perception of Akatsuki's emotions.

"I don't want to be the emperor," Mingye said casually, rolling his eyes, "I will become a sword for His Highness."

Rong Jian can't hold a knife, he hasn't learned it, and he doesn't have enough strength.And Mingye is the most dangerous knife in the world. Those who tried to control Mingye all died under this knife.

But Mingye was willing to do so.

He will become Rong Jian's protector, become Rong Jian's lover, become Rong Jian's husband, and is willing to be a sharp knife that cuts through all obstacles for Rong Jian.

The author has something to say:

See you: really want to kiss qwq
