Chapter 58 The End of the Text
A week later, Ming Nuo woke up in the morning and found that it was particularly quiet today. At this time in the past, the outside world was in chaos, with people screaming and crying and explosions happening one after another.
Mingnuo asked Sedwick, who was already dressed, "Did you hear anything?"
Sedwick asked suspiciously, "Is the parade over?"
Mingnuo put on his slippers, walked to the terrace and looked at the street not far away. He found that the marching teams were standing in groups of three or four chatting, and the guards who were supposed to fight with them had also laid down their weapons.
The morning breeze was cool. Ming Nuo was only wearing a thin nightgown. Her fair neck was dotted with kiss marks, and half of her body was leaning over the railing.
The wind blew the hem of his shirt, revealing his belly which also had mottled marks on it.
Sedwick saw this scene when he walked out. His eyelids twitched, and he quickened his pace with a coat in his hand and put the coat on Mingnuo's shoulders.
Ming Nuo: "I'm not cold."
Sedwick: "You have to wear it though. It will be very uncomfortable if you catch a cold."
Mingnuo obediently put on his coat. A few minutes later, his smart brain vibrated. It was a message from his brother.
[Zelphis: Marshal Stewart is about to arrive at the capital planet. When are you planning to return home?]
Ming Nuo remembered that Marshal Stewart and Marshal Coleman had just met up not long ago. In just a few days, they had fought directly from the edge galaxy to the capital star?
Mingnuo turned to Sedwick and said, "Your father will be here soon."
Sedvik also received the news, "Saroyan betrayed the Sechuan Empire and told us all the military secrets."
Ming Nuo was shocked, "Is he that good?"
"Of course there are conditions," Sedwick said. "He used this information to buy citizenship and a house in the Hughes Empire, and then he asked us to bring his mother back safely."
The collapse of the Sechuan Empire is a foregone conclusion. Saroyan is in an awkward position. If he wants to survive, he can only surrender to the Perseus Empire.
Ming Nuo: "He's pretty good to his mother."
Sedwick: "Mama's boy."
Ming Nuo: “…”
Mingnuo ignored Sedwick's attempt to secretly apply eye drops to him and replied to his brother: "I guess I can only go back after the old emperor dies. Brother, please wait for me. He probably won't live long."
Zelphis: [Okay, what do you want to eat when you get home?]
Speaking of food, Mingnuo became very excited and immediately gave all his favorite dishes to his brother.
Among the list of dishes Mingnuo gave, Zelphis keenly noticed that there was something wrong with one of the dishes. He knew his brother's preferences very well. [Don't you dislike carrots?]
Mingnuo: [Sedwick likes it.]
Zelphis: [……]
Zelphis was silent for a long time. He wanted to ask his brother how far he and Sedwick had progressed, but he felt that the answer would be too much for him to bear, so he silently deleted the question.
Finally, he asked Mingnuo how he had been doing recently.
Mingnuo: [That's great! Sedwick and I go shopping every day and buy you lots of gifts.]
Sticking together every day? Where did Achir and Seren go? Zelphis's face was cold, but the message he sent to Mingnuo was still warm. [Well, thank you Lorian.]
Mingnuo chatted with his brother for a while, and just as they were finishing their conversation, a home bionic man knocked on the door and asked them to come downstairs for dinner.
Today's breakfast was rich and delicious. Ming Nuo was eating when Ming Jue told him, "Nunuo, accompany me to the palace today."
Ming Nuo chewed and chewed: "Yeah, okay."
This time Mingjue only took Mingnuo with him, while Sedwick and Archer stayed behind.
It has been less than half a month since Mingnuo last came to the palace, but the atmosphere in the palace has become completely different. The ornamental trees on the roadside have not been trimmed and are growing wildly. The servants who were once seen everywhere are nowhere to be seen.
As he approached the old emperor's bedroom, the bloody smell between Ming Nuo's nostrils became stronger and stronger. He gripped the handle of the knife tightly and followed Ming Jue with heavy steps.
The bishop stood in front of the door. When he saw Ming Jue coming, he followed him silently.
As the door slowly opened, Ming Nuo's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate. He took a step outside and saw the scene inside. He opened his eyes wide in shock.
The old emperor's children were all killed, their eyes wide open, blood oozing from the holes in their chests. Their bodies were all thrown onto the old emperor's bed. The old emperor was surrounded by the bodies of his children, but he was still barely alive.
When the old emperor saw Ming Jue and the bishop approaching, he struggled to his feet. His hair was disheveled, his clothes were soaked in blood, his facial muscles were twitching, and his eyes were filled with hatred. "You, you... Ming Jue... Why did Ming Jue..."
Ming Jue chuckled as he watched the old emperor struggle, then called the bishop over and asked, "Do you think he will be your savior?"
The old emperor stared at the bishop, "I trust you so much... why?!"
The bishop raised his eyes to gaze at the old emperor and said softly, "Your Majesty, obeying the master's orders is the meaning of the existence of androids. This is common sense. Your Majesty, don't you know?"
Bionic people? The old emperor stared blankly at the young man in front of him. The bishop who opposed the Bionic Church was himself a bionic person?
The old emperor was so overwhelmed by this news that he looked at Ming Jue and cursed, "I treated you as my confidant, and this is how you repay me?! You are such a heartless person!"
Ming Jue put on gloves and pinched the old emperor's neck with a dirty look. He applied a little force with his hands, making the old emperor's face turn ashen.
"You sent my brother to the research institute, treating him as a test subject. You even implanted a control chip in him and sent him to the enemy country to seize Perseus's young prince... Your Majesty, when you attacked my brother, how could you not have imagined that this day would come?"
The old emperor was speechless, his eyeballs seemed to be about to burst. Ming Jue threw him to the ground in disgust and beckoned to Ming Nuo, "Nunuo, come and kill him."
Ming Nuo took a step forward. He was not wearing any disguise today, and his true appearance was revealed to the old emperor.
The old emperor burst into ecstasy the moment he saw Ming Nuo. He stretched out his hand towards him and crawled in front of him. The blood-colored crystals on his arm were crushed and flowed all over the ground mixed with blood.
Ming Nuo took a step back in disgust.
The old emperor completely ignored his own situation, as if grasping at the last straw: "You, you are Lorian, right? Save me, please save me quickly."
Ming Nuo looked at him with cold eyes, "I'm here to kill you."
The old emperor seemed to have lost his mind and muttered, "Save me... Save me..."
The cold blade was pressed against the old emperor's neck. Mingnuo's hand was steady. He immediately and decisively stabbed the old emperor's neck. The aorta was cut, and blood instantly dyed Mingnuo's hand red.
The old emperor convulsed in a pool of blood, but was unwilling to close his eyes until his death, staring at Mingnuo with his eyes open.
It was not until he died completely that Ming Nuo breathed a sigh of relief. His back was already wet with sweat, and blood was still dripping from the tip of the knife in his hand.
"Great." Ming Jue patted Ming Nuo's head with satisfaction and wiped the blood off Ming Nuo's hands with a tissue. "Well, I've avenged your father Ming Chuan. Are you happy?"
Ming Nuo didn't feel very happy and said dejectedly, "I still hope Ming Chuan's father is alive."
Ming Jue paused and said nothing. He just slowly held Ming Nuo in his arms and stroked his head.
On the way home, Ming Jue suddenly asked, "Nono, do you want to be the emperor?"
Ming Nuo was shocked, "I'm the emperor?"
Ming Jue: "Yeah."
As long as Mingnuo nods, he can send Mingnuo to the throne of Saichuan Empire.
Ming Nuo knew his uncle wasn't joking, so he shook his head repeatedly, his face full of resistance. "Forget it, I'm quite self-aware. I can't be, and will never be, an emperor."
Ming Nuo knew very well how tiring it was to be an emperor. It was a job that required 24/7 work all year round. Although he had no boss, there were countless clients who would find fault with him at any time.
Ming Nuo even had trouble getting up early. He was so sleepy that his mind was daydreaming at 8 a.m. last morning. He really couldn't imagine himself being an emperor. If he met his brother's group of weird subordinates, Ming Nuo was worried that he would burst into tears in the middle of the meeting.
Seeing how resistant he was, Ming Jue gave up the idea and said, "Alright, go have fun."
Ming Nuo: “…”
Are you sure you didn't mean "Let's go play in the mud?"
Except for Saroyan who was far away in the Perseus Empire, all other members of the royal family were killed by Ming Jue. It was indeed difficult to choose another emperor.
Of course, Mingnuo doesn’t need to worry about these things, because his uncle will definitely solve them anyway.
The Tasang behemoth in the fringe galaxy stopped attacking after venting its anger and went back to find a wife and raise cubs.
At the same time, Marshal Stewart led his troops into the capital star, and Mingnuo finally met Sedwick's father for the first time.
Marshal Stewart was handsome and tough, and he was humorous. When he saw Ming Nuo, he put his hands under Ming Nuo's armpits and raised him up like a little baby, saying with a smile: "Your Highness, I haven't seen you for a long time. You have grown a lot taller."
The last time he saw Mingnuo, Mingnuo was only one year old.
Mingnuo's body suddenly flew into the air, frightened by this enthusiastic greeting. Sedwick rescued Mingnuo from his father's hands and stood in front of Mingnuo, "Dad, don't scare him."
"How could that be?" Marshal Stuart smiled heartily. "I often held him when he was little, okay?"
Ming Nuo: “…”
Such familiar words, I seem to have heard them many times.
Marshal Stuart had also learned from Mrs. Lin that the two children were together. Seeing that the two of them got along well, he felt relieved and asked Sedwick, "When are you moving out?"
Now that Sedwick already has a boyfriend, he also wants to start his own family.
"I'll move in when I get back this time." Sedwick turned to Mingnuo and asked, "Do you want to live with me?"
"Okay!" Ming Nuo agreed immediately, but he had some concerns, "But I can't cook."
Sedwick took the responsibility: "I'll do it."
Ming Nuo: "Washing the dishes..."
Sedwick: "I wash, I mop, and I put your clothes together every morning..."
Sedwick took care of all the trivial matters in life. Mingnuo happily hugged Sedwick's neck and kissed his cheek, "You are so nice!"
Marshal Stewart's arrival means Mingnuo is going home, and Zelphis also sends Baldwin over.
Uncles were always jealous of each other when they met. Every time Ming Nuo called one of them "uncle," they would pretend to be confused and deliberately ask Ming Nuo: "Uncle? Which uncle?"
Ming Nuo was helpless: "...Uncle Bodwin, Uncle Ming Jue."
Bodwin: “Smart.”
Ming Jue: "Good boy."
On the day of his return to the Perseus Empire, Mo Lin sat in a wheelchair, basking in the warm sunshine. He looked at the Perseus Empire's starship, his eyes slightly red. "I'm finally going home."
Seren pushed him onto the starship.
Mingnuo said goodbye to Mingjue and Uncle Bodwin. Mingjue handed all the flower seeds that Mingchuan hadn't had time to plant to Mingnuo. He couldn't take his eyes off the seeds for a long time. "Take good care of them, maybe they will sprout."
Ming Nuo carefully accepted the flower seeds and placed them in his lamb bag. He took a step forward, hugged Ming Jue tightly, and said reluctantly, "Well, I will. Goodbye, uncle."
From then on, the Saichuan Empire was incorporated into the territory of the Perseus Empire and became a vassal state of the Perseus Empire.
The night Minno returned to Perseus's Empire, Zelphis came to greet them with a group of people.
Mo Lin, who was in a wheelchair, was so excited when he saw Wen Zhining that he stood up and ran off the starship before Seren. He ran to Wen Zhining and hugged him with great strides, "Teacher! I will study hard in the future! I will listen to you and will never think about living off you again. I will strive to graduate as soon as possible."
Wen Zhining was surprised that he could turn back one day: "What made you change your ways?"
Mo Lin said sadly, "Life is even harder out there."
Wen Zhining: “…”
I'm very curious about what he experienced in the Saichuan Empire.
Ming Nuo saw his brother the first time and jumped into his arms happily, hugging him tightly, "Brother, I'm back!"
Zelphis smiled and hugged him, "Well, welcome home."
Zelphis had already prepared a dinner, and Aunt Dilina and Aunt Lin had gathered together.
Bai Mian also excitedly circled around Ming Nuo. Because of her huge size, Mian Mian did not attend the dinner. She just video-called Ming Nuo with the help of the old principal.
Because he was too happy, Ming Nuo drank a few more glasses of wine tonight. A light blush appeared on his fair face. He excitedly told his brother and uncles at the dinner table, "I'm going to move out with Sedwick!"
In an instant, Sedwick felt several sharp gazes. He solemnly assured the elders, "I will take good care of Lorian. Please rest assured."
Ming Nuo also nodded repeatedly and agreed: "Yeah, don't worry, don't worry."
The day that was supposed to come finally came. Zelphis had anticipated this moment the day the two confirmed their relationship. His younger brother would grow up and have a family with the person he loved.
Zelphis took a deep breath and relaxed, "Go ahead. Come back if you get homesick."
Ming Nuo happily hugged Zelphis' neck and put his face close to his, "Thank you, brother! I love you the most."
Zelphis rubbed his head helplessly.
The next day, Mingnuo and Sedwick moved out of their home and formed a small family. Baimian also left with them. Mingnuo and Sedwick set up a soft nest for the cute lamb in the yard.
The new home was not far from the palace, so Mingnuo could go back anytime he wanted. Without being disturbed by his family, the two of them had fun until very late on the first night they moved in.
In the middle of the night, Bai Mian heard a strange noise. He tilted his head in confusion, chewed some grass, and slowly fell asleep.
It was not until the middle of the night that Ming Nuo pushed Sedwick away, breathless. Sedwick was sweating profusely, and he turned his back to him in a somewhat embarrassed and angry manner. "Okay, okay, time to go to bed."
Sedwick carried him into the bathroom. Mingnuo struggled in vain and finally just let him go. More than two hours later, the two came out of the bathroom.
Ming Nuo was tired and sleepy, and fell asleep as soon as he got on the bed.
Sedwick lay down beside Mingnuo, tucked him in, and held him in his arms contentedly.
Life gradually returned to normal. Ming Nuo continued to work on the arsenal project with Wen Zhining. Senior brother Mo Lin finally graduated and evolved from a temporary social animal to a full-time social animal. He followed them all day long to advance the project into the city.
After completing the required courses at school and obtaining the required credits, Sedwick went to work in the military. Every day he would get off work on time and return to their little nest for warmth.
Ming Nuo bought a small flowerpot at home, planted the flower seeds given to him by Uncle Ming Jue in it, placed it in the sun, and waited for the seeds to germinate.
The seeds are buried deep in the soil, quietly absorbing nutrients and moisture from the soil, regaining vitality, and soon small sprouts emerge.
From summer to autumn, clusters of beautiful snow-white flowers bloom in the sun. Baimian likes flowers of the same color as herself very much, and she tilts her little head back to smell the petals.
Ming Nuo smiled and captured this scene.
The picture of the lamb smelling flowers has since been placed in the most conspicuous position in the room.
