Mu Beichen stared blankly at the person in front of him who was crying and talking. His heart was beating rapidly and a wave of pain surged out.
There was a voice in his heart telling himself repeatedly: Believe him.
Mu Beichen's eyes froze, and he strode forward, looking at Yan Xi who was crying uncontrollably. His thin lips moved for a while, but he couldn't say a word.
He wiped the tears from his eyes, sighed, and hugged him tightly. "I should be the one to say sorry. Don't cry. I promise you, I will leave you clues in the future, okay?"
Yan Xi felt a lump in her throat, so she hugged him tightly, coughed a few times, and said in a muffled voice, "Are you still angry?"
"I'm not angry anymore." Mu Beichen touched his head, lowered his head and kissed him, and whispered softly: "Are you still angry with me?"
Yan Xi said aggrievedly: "Angry."
Mu Beichen: “…”
"You forced me."
Mu Beichen: “…”
"You still locked me up."
Mu Beichen: “…”
Well, the attempt to get away with it failed.
Let’s try another way.
…
Afterwards, Mu Beichen was in a good mood and increased his task progress by 1%.
I don’t know how long it took, but Yan Xi slowly woke up. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in another place.
After taking a closer look, I found that the room was simple and elegant, and it should be Mu Beichen's bedroom.
After a warning, System 5555 was finally released, tears welling in its eyes as it said, "Host, wuwuwu... What on earth have you done? I feel like I can't tell the difference between day and night anymore."
Yan Xi laughed awkwardly: "Well, guess."
System 5555: "Forget it, that's not important. What's important is that we completed the mission! Oh my god, you let me sleep for a while and gave me a surprise, and you actually gave me a surprise. Host, how did you do it?"
Yan Xi: "Ahem...you're locked up, what do you think?"
System 5555: “…” Yes, very strong.
"Host, you've worked hard." System 5555 said solemnly, "I have some ointment here. Do you need some?"
When Yan Xi heard this, his eyebrows twitched, "Get lost! I don't need you!"
System 5555 was confused. I care about you, why are you angry?
"Forget it, it's okay if you don't need it. I'm leaving anyway. Just bear with it for a while. I'll open the passage and the pain will stop immediately."
"Wait!" Yan Xi's heart skipped a beat. "No, no, I need it. Really, I want to play for a few more days. I haven't had enough of the delicious food in this world."
System 5555 stopped moving. "Okay, hurry up. I have some big stomach pills here. Want some? I can eat a lot all day without feeling full."
Yan Xi smiled wryly, "System, you are so considerate."
System 5555 was very proud: "Of course not, I have everything. It's all free anyway, so don't miss it."
"Is that so..." Yan Xi's eyes flashed, "Then do you have something to extend your stay?"
System 5555: "Uh... no."
Yan Xi said indifferently: "Oh, then you can log off and come back online when the time comes."
System 5555 was very obedient and went offline.
The emperor suddenly fell ill last night.
The illness came like a mountain falling on me, and it was quite serious, so I couldn't get out of bed.
Mu Beichen was the regent and attended court on his behalf.
Seeing this situation, the officials who supported other princes could no longer sit still.
Some people took the lead and went to the emperor's bedroom to ask His Majesty to appoint a crown prince as soon as possible, and they all strongly recommended Mu Beichen.
The sick and weak emperor listened and sneered in his heart.
He is sick, but his brain is not sick.
Don't think that if you praise Beichen too much, he will feel disgusted with him.
The emperor pretended to be angry as they wished, and as soon as they left, he immediately summoned Mu Beichen.
When the officials saw this, they were secretly delighted and were all waiting to see the show.
Mu Beichen looked at the person on the bed and knelt down to salute: "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Father. Long live the Emperor."
The emperor coughed a few times, feeling out of breath, and said, "Get up."
Mu Beichen stood up.
The emperor beckoned, "Come here."
Mu Beichen approached little by little, his eyes fixed on him, "Father."
The emperor raised his hand, touched his face, and smiled slightly, "When I was your age, I had already started attending court. Unfortunately, the imperial relatives were in power, and I had no freedom to do anything. I only had a dragon robe on my body.
In order to be able to take power and seek benefits for the people of the world, I have endured humiliation and worked diligently for decades. This half of my life has been too tiring, and your mother has been confined to the cold palace for a full eighteen years because of my incompetence.
After thinking about it, I think it is time for me to abdicate and rest, so that I can enjoy the rest of my life with your mother."
He paused, staring into his eyes, very seriously, "Beichen, tell father, do you want that position?"
