Hearing King Yue's words, Mu Yunyao was slightly stunned, as if she couldn't react in time: "Unintentional Emperor?" The previous preparations that King Yue made were obviously for the struggle for the throne, but now he suddenly mentioned that he did not intend to take the throne. Could it be that he knew that he might not be the Emperor's son?
Or was there some other unforeseen event?
Seeing that Mu Yunyao did not make a sound, King Yue's heart sunk slightly."Yao`er, do you wish for me to become the Emperor?"
Mu Yunyao came back to her senses and gently caressed King Yue's face, "If I were to say that I wish for Fourth Master to be the Emperor, would he fight for that position for me?"
"Yes!" "If not for your support, I would not have progressed as smoothly as I am now. As long as it is something you wish for, I will do my best to help you achieve it."
Mu Yunyao's heart slightly trembled, and she couldn't help but raise her hand to enclose the Winged King's eyes. An extremely complex expression flashed across her eyes."Fourth Master, why are you so good to me?" The first time he saw her, an image surfaced in his mind, "I don't know either. Perhaps this is fate, but ever since we met each other for the first time, fate and shackles have been deeply rooted there. I still remember the first time I saw you, you had to carry this behind you ..."
Holding the basket, his entire body was extremely thin and weak, like a weak reed by a river. If the wind blew on it, it would break. However, your eyes are as bright as the stars in the sky, and your courage is extremely great. You actually stole the dagger that I carried around with you."
"Isn't that Lord Fourth threatening me first? I didn't take the opportunity to drug you and just stabbed you with my dagger."
Yue Yang couldn't help but smile, "Yeah, now that I think about it, I was indeed very lucky back then." With Yun Yao's strength, it would be easy for her to kill him at that time.
Mu Yunyao felt King Yue slightly blink his eyes. His eyelashes lightly brushed across her palm like a fan, and with a slight itch, she asked, "Fourth Master, can I ask why you're not interested in the throne?"
"Because my heart is too small." Yue Wang tilted his head, his eyes being covered by his palm, he couldn't see anything, but he could accurately picture Mu Yunyao's appearance in his heart, "In Jiangnan, after seeing the tragic state of the river after it broke through the city walls, do you know what I'm thinking?"
Mu Yunyao slightly shook her head. When she thought about how King Yue couldn't see it, she added, "What does Fourth Master think?"
"Looking at those tragic circumstances, I feel like I should be unable to contain my anger. I should think about punishing the culprits for bringing justice to the people, but in reality, there is not a single ripple in my heart."
"But Lord Fourth investigated the evidence and uncovered the truth behind River Break ..."
"I'm not looking for evidence for the sake of the commoners, but I want to help you get rid of the Jin Emperor and eliminate the hatred in your heart."
Mu Yunyao's fingertip slightly trembled, and her minute movements were caught by Yue Yang.
"Yao'er, this is the reason why I do not intend to ascend to the throne. royal father has worked hard his entire life, and even now, he is still extremely diligent. I am unable to burden the common people like he did, because after liking you, my eyes will never be able to accept anything else."
Mu Yunyao retracted her hand and looked at King Yue with a complicated expression. His gaze was bright and resolute, carrying an indomitable spirit with it. It was clear and true, without the slightest lie to be seen.
Duke Yue held Mu Yunyao's hand and placed it on his chest, letting her feel his heartbeat, "Yao'er, would you be afraid if I said that to you?" He had been sitting at the threshold of the palace all day, looking up at the square of sky. From the first rays of dawn to the last rays of dawn, it seemed like an entire day, and gradually, he felt that his heart was like this limited sky.
Occasionally, there would be birds and hummingbutterflies flying about, but not a single trace would be left behind. Until he met Mu Yunyao, he didn't know why, but he felt that she was different from the others. She would imitate his handwriting, come up with some ideas for him, consider things from his point of view, and send him warm ginger tea ... The more they got along, the more they couldn't help but want to get closer ...
When he came back to his senses, he realized that the square of sky in his heart had already changed color.
Whether it was his blood ties or seniority, he firmly refused to let go. He even wanted to guard her at all times, not letting her leave his sight, not letting her see anyone else.
Mu Yunyao looked at King Yue's nervous expression, and then suddenly lowered her head to press it against King Yue's forehead. Her eyes sparkled with an unprecedented look, "Fourth Master said that his heart is small, what stage has he reached?"
"I can only take you in."
"Alright, since Fourth Master has no intentions to ascend to the throne, then let's not fight for the position of the next head. If we don't become the emperor, we can still live a prosperous life."
Yue Yang was overjoyed: "Yao'er, you ... "You agreed?" In fact, after thinking about it carefully, being an emperor wasn't anything good. He might have to deal with the three palaces and six courtyards in order to balance the officials of the previous dynasty. If there were more people like Su Yuyi in the imperial harem, then he wouldn't be at peace.
Be free."
He had the power to do whatever he wanted. He wasn't a king, but he could become a true prince.
"I naturally believe in Master Four." Since King Fu was not prepared to become the emperor, then many plans would have to change along with it. Since King Yu and Prince Jin did not have the qualifications, it was highly likely that the one who would ascend to the throne would be the impenetrable Prince Yu.
Yue Yang lightly kissed the corner of Mu Yunyao's lips. Feeling the dense warmth, he couldn't help but extend his tongue to lick it.
Mu Yunyao hurriedly shrank back, the shyness in her watery eyes becoming even more intense."Sentiment, no need to be so formal. Fourth Master doesn't want to cross the line."
King Yue looked at Mu Yunyao with a wronged expression. He shook her hand gently, "Yao`er, come and let me hug you. You've been squatting here for too long and your legs are numb. You can't get up."
When Mu Yunyao saw that he didn't seem to be faking it, she hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
There was a smile on Yue Yang's face as he deliberately waited for Mu Yunyao to use all her strength. Suddenly, he stood up and used the force of her retreat to push her down onto the soft couch, "Yao`er, you're really strong."
Mu Yunyao blinked, then suddenly reached out and pinched the waist of the Winged King, "Fourth Master, you're really thick-skinned!" King Yue laughed and gave Mu Yunyao a kiss on the cheek. He then quickly stood up and walked out of the hall."Yao`er, I will return to my residence now to prepare the ingredients on your list."
