real!Just wanted to collect strange beasts but became Bai Yueguang

"And you-"

Duan Yun looked at Ling Yuan, feeling like he was going to turn himself into a puffer fish, "Why didn't you let me call you 'Aheng' before, don't say you two hit it off! No one would believe it!"

Obviously he brought Hengzhi here, but why did he feel that in the end it was Hengzhi and Ling Yuan who had the best relationship.

Duan Yun felt like he was being pushed away by xenophobia. Even when he was "accusing" and accusing like this, the two of them actually had no special expressions. They looked at him like... stupid?
"What kind of eyes are you two looking at?!"

Very weak accusation.

It was probably because both of them knew about Duan Yun's acting prowess, so they simply ignored his pretentious appearance.

"Enough greetings, let's get down to business."

Hengzhi didn't intend to continue rambling, since they were in the palace, they planned to make a quick decision.

"..."

Duan Yun was a little confused, what's the business?Didn't Hengzhi come here today just to say a few words and leave?Why did it suddenly get involved in business again?
Intuition told Duan Yun that he might be a little frightened.

"Do you want to be emperor?"

Hengzhi said bluntly, and looked up at the weak and pale Ling Yuan, she actually had an answer in her heart before asking this question.

His eyes had already clearly told him the answer.

He hated the emperor, his biological father.

Ling Yuan paused, he probably didn't expect the young general's words to be so straightforward.But there was no one else at the moment, and he looked up at Duan Yun who seemed to be a little surprised but not too surprised, and he knew with a high probability that this was not a temptation.

They are all smart people with a clear heart, so how can they not understand each other's "difficulties".

Ling Yuan's downcast eyes seemed to be right on Hengzhi's fair neck, and he lowered his head slightly, and by the flickering candlelight in the room, he could still clearly see the meridians under her skin.

She had been at the border for a long time, but she never turned dark, and even seemed to be shining in his eyes.

He closed his eyes, opened them again, and said slowly, "It's not because I want to, but because I have to."

He knew something about his so-called brothers, and he knew very well that no matter who came to the throne in the end, whether he was an unfavored prince or a brother, he would not end well in the end.His only way out is to either feign death or sit in a high position.

And he can fake death, but Duan Yun and Xiao Hengzhi can't.

Because there are Duan family and Xiao family behind them, they will be the target of the emperor and can be destroyed at any time.

When Ling Yuan raised his head again, he met Shang Hengzhi's calm eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and he didn't know why his heart was burning uncontrollably today.

……

On the way back, Duan Yun still didn't want to understand, until the two of them left the palace to go back to their respective homes, Duan Yun still couldn't help asking: "Didn't you say that this time I went to test it out first? It feels like you just approved of him directly."

Sitting in the carriage, Heng Zhi said in a cold voice, "It may not be a month."

After seeing the emperor and Ling Yuan today, Hengzhi realized that he might not even be able to wait for a month.Her behavior today has already irritated the emperor and the prince, and they will definitely find ways to kill her before she returns to the border.

Duan Yun rolled his eyes innocently: "Who made you too eye-catching today."

First he hated the emperor, then he pulled down the princess, and in the end even the prince was not spared.

This is clearly doomed.
