Mu Huaichen lay on the couch and fell asleep. He had a dream, which was when he was a child.
The last time he saw his uncle Mu Jingyan...
"Huaichen, when uncle comes back, we will make a spear so that our Huaichen will be as strong as his brother." Mu Jingyan hugged Mu Huaichen and sat in the yard playing with the wooden sword.
Mu Jingyan likes Mu Huaichen very much, perhaps because Mu Huaichen has been weak since birth, so he is the treasure of the Mu family.
Growing up, Mu Huaichen was protected by his brother, pampered by his uncle, pampered by his parents, accompanied by the prince, and guarded by the shadow guard Qi Feng...
Apart from his physical discomfort, he is actually very happy.
Qi Feng was personally selected by Mu Jingyan, and he was chosen by Mu Huaichen's side when he was very young.
Mu Jingyan saved Qi Feng's life, and Qi Feng's life was promised to Mu Huaichen.
From that moment on, Qifeng and Mu Huaichen were tightly bound together.
"Your Highness, you cannot fight." In his dream, Mu Huaichen dreamed that when he was a child, Xiao Junze, Prince Yu and others were fighting.
"Your Highness, you are injured!"
In the dream, Xiao Junze held a white little rabbit in his arms, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and smiled at Mu Huaichen. "Your little rabbit!"
Mu Huaichen stared blankly at Xiao Junze, the prince of a country, who was aloof and superior, but he fought with several princes over a rabbit he saved.
That day, both he and Xiao Junze were punished, but Xiao Junze was very happy and there was light in his eyes.
The former prince was also kind.
At that time, Xiao Junze was the only light in Mu Huaichen's heart.
He believed that Xiao Junze's original intention would not change no matter how he changed.
He is still the Crown Prince who can protect a little rabbit, take punishment for him, and defend him everywhere in the palace.
"Your Highness, you will be punished for hiding in the villa without telling your Majesty and the Queen."
Mu Huaichen and Xiao Junze had seen Chaoyang when they were young, at the summer resort.
At that time, Chaoyang was secretly teaching a bullying young eunuch a lesson, while Xiao Junze and Mu Huaichen were hiding in the pavilion behind the rockery.
"That maid is really special." Xiao Junze held his head and looked at Xiao Chaoyang who was giving lectures.
Chaoyang is much younger than Xiao Junze. She looks cute but also very fierce.
"She is so pretty." Xiao Junze asked Mu Huaichen. "What do you think?"
"If your Highness thinks she looks good, you can ask Eunuch Xu to take her into the palace and take care of you." Mu Huaichen said softly.
Xiao Junze was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. "No...such a special person should stay outside the palace. Entering the palace...will break her wings."
"Your Highness, if you like it, don't you deserve it?" The prince's master said, the way of the emperor in the world is the king's land.
"But the queen mother said that if you like something, you should keep it as it is and don't touch it easily." Because if you touch it, it may no longer be the way you like it. "The queen mother said that the flowers in the imperial garden are very beautiful.
You can enjoy it growing on a tree for a month, but if you break it down because you like it, it will wither in less than a day."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said..."
At that time, Xiao Junze knew how to protect the things he liked from being stained or poisoned.
Mu Huaichen sometimes thought that if there was no jealousy of beauty, and if Queen Changsun could always accompany Xiao Junze to grow up, then he must be the most benevolent emperor in heaven.
pity……
Empress Changsun left too early, and the way Emperor Long made Xiao Junze grow up was too cruel.
"Huai Chen?"
After sleeping a little restlessly, Mu Huaichen heard someone calling his name.
Mu Huaicheng sat beside the bed and touched Mu Huaichen's forehead. He had a low fever.
As the elder brother, Mu Huaicheng gave his younger brother all his tenderness from childhood.
"Brother..." Mu Huaichen's voice was a little hoarse, and he slowly opened his eyes, his eye sockets hurting a little.
"Don't get up." Mu Huaicheng shook his head and asked in a low voice. "Are you hungry? I asked the cook camp to make some food for you. Eat some?"
"Brother..." Mu Huaichen curled up. He knew that he would not die soon. "If I leave, you must live well."
The Mu family cannot be cut off from them.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You're just too tired from the journey." Mu Huaicheng scolded in a low voice, not wanting his brother to be so pessimistic.
"It will get better..." He stubbornly believed that Mu Huaichen would definitely get better.
"Brother, you know..." Even the imperial physician in the palace said that he would not live long.
After living for so many more years, I thought I was satisfied.
But he was still a little unwilling. He didn't want to die. "Brother, I want to see you get married, I want to see Chao'er be happy, and I want to see Xiao Junze secure his destiny..."
There are many things that he is worried about.
"Don't be stupid, you will get better, I won't let you die." Over the years, Mu Huaicheng has searched for famous doctors all over the world, but except for the old man from southern Xinjiang, no one can save Mu Huaicheng.
But unfortunately, the old man... left.
"Brother, if I leave, can you let Qifeng follow you? He has been by my side since he was a child. If I leave, he will not be able to find his way." Mu Huaichen wanted to entrust Qifeng to Mu Huai.
become.
"You take care of your shadow guard yourself." Mu Huaicheng stood up and looked away.
"General, Princess Chaoyang has arrived."
Outside the camp, the guards came to report.
Mu Huaicheng suppressed his tears, clenched his hands, and left the tent.
As soon as Mu Huaicheng left, he poked his head into the tent.
Mu Huaichen looked at the sneaky figure at the door and smiled. "Who are you?"
Xie Yunnan came in smelling the smell, looked at the food on the table, and snorted. "All the delicious food is for you."
Mu Huaicheng looked at the young man in front of him quietly. If it weren't for his voice and clothes, he almost thought he was a girl. He was so good-looking that no ordinary woman could match him.
"Why don't you eat?" Xie Yunnan, a spoiled young prince, has been eating rice bran at the border for so long. Looking at the thin porridge on the table, he became more and more homesick.
"I can't eat, don't waste it. If you're hungry, just eat." Mu Huaichen wanted to sit up, but he didn't have the strength.
Xie Yunnan swallowed his saliva. In order to return to Dayu, he had been on hunger strike for many days. Muji and the masked man ignored him. He was so hungry that he sneaked in.
I want to see the background of this person who can make the cook camp start a small stove.
It turned out to be a sick man.
"Are you sick?" Xie Yunnan sat down next to Mu Huaichen very unceremoniously, picked up the porridge and took a sip. "I don't want to eat your food for nothing. Please stretch out your hand and let me have a look."
Seeing Xie Yunnan's seriousness, Mu Huaichen smiled and handed over his wrist.
Xie Yunnan gracefully felt Mu Huaichen's pulse, but it was weak and weak. This was a sign of death.
"Will the young master visit the sick?" Seeing Xie Yunnan's thoughtful expression, Mu Huaichen asked.
Xie Yunnan scratched his head for a long time and shook his head. "No."
Xie Yunnan's look made Mu Huaichen laugh. Even if he didn't know how to see a doctor, it made Mu Huaichen feel better. "Then the young master has been touching you for so long?"
"But a natural disease? It was caused by premature birth and something went wrong during the mother's pregnancy?" Xie Yunnan looked at Mu Huaichen. He was very interested in medical skills. An old beggar taught him how to feel the pulse, but he had never really learned it.
, just based on feeling.
"Well, yes." Mu Huaichen was startled and nodded.
"The same goes for me." Xie Yunnan was also born with a frail body and suffered from a natural disease. "When I was a child, the palace doctor told me that I would not live to be thirteen, which frightened my father. He thought that he had killed too many people and that the Xie family would have no descendants."
