Ji Jinrong didn't realize that something was wrong until he was carried on the horse by Arthurs. There was a glimmer of hope in his heart: "Arthurs, are you hungry?"
Responding to him was Arthur's hands passing through his waist. In the eyes of outsiders, this scene is Arthurs hugging him intimately and riding a horse.
Ji Jinrong's heart sank straight down.
Without a word Arthurs told the horse to go back. He never knew that anger could easily defeat a person's rationality. God knows how far he wants to send all those with special intentions around Ji Jinrong away—
However, he is not eligible. The purpose of the Freedom Army is not to restrict anyone's basic rights. If even the leader of the Freedom Army disregards the wishes of others and uses excessive means to trap people around him, then the word "freedom" in the Freedom Army is still worthless. What's the point
How can he convince the public in the future
Arthurs tried to cool down his anger. They didn't do anything, did they? Ji Jinrong didn't kiss, hug, or do other intimate things with that damned doctor. He had no reason to be angry, no reason to blame, he just—just hated himself for not even being able to question him.
Obviously—
Obviously he loves him! He loves him more than everything in the world—including his own life!
This realization startled Arthur.
Before he had time to feel the sweetness of love, his heart was already filled with bitterness.
What use is his love to Ji Jinrong? He couldn't even understand Ji Jinrong's bright eyes when communicating with those people. From the day he founded the Freedom Army, he had to put on a perfect mask and create a "myth" of fairness, justice, and equality for all!
It's a pity that he didn't think in his heart that all this could really come true. He was just pushed into this position by fate, he didn't have much confidence in fulfilling his teacher's last wish, but when he saw an opportunity, he did it—
While wearing a mask to continue the teacher's will, he uses his own means to eliminate dissidents. Maybe one day, someone will find that he is a terrible devil, not as perfect and great as everyone sees.
Every day he passed was like walking on a thin and dangerous tightrope.
Before, he never cared. He doesn't care how far this road can go, and he doesn't care how long it takes to walk on this road. He is only responsible for walking forward with the will of the teacher and the support of his subordinates. He doesn't need family, friendship, and love. His birth seems to be to fulfill the mission entrusted to him by fate.
Now he's in love with someone.
This person has bright but not scorching eyes, like a ball of light, just standing there makes everyone feel bright and warm. From the moment they met, he felt that his soul no longer belonged to him.
However, he is not entitled to own him.
He has nothing in his hands.
He doesn't even know how to love someone.
Arthurs felt terribly painful. When he reached the mansion, he finally said, "I'm starving. I'm sorry, I didn't scare you just now, did I?"
Ji Jinrong's tense nerves finally relaxed. He couldn't help telling the truth: "Your face is really scary!"
Arthurs carried him off his horse.
Ji Jinrong felt a little awkward—but it felt even more awkward when he was struggling.
Ji Jinrong's heart returned to its original position after he stepped on the ground firmly and Arthurs' palm was also quite gentlemanly away from his waist.
Arthurs said: "People are always in a bad temper when they are hungry." There was a bit of half-truth and half-sadness in his tone. "To be honest, I am a little bit jealous."
Ji Jinrong felt his little heart rising and falling one after another.
Move every time, move every time.
What does this guy mean
Ji Jinrong's head was definitely not made for love. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to discover Wei Tingjun's feelings for him until he died. But after being open and honest with Wei Tingjun in the last world, Ji Jinrong felt that his sensitivity in this area had already improved!
Before realizing the anger of Arthurs just now, Ji Jinrong always thought that Arthurs wanted to recruit him—maybe the reason for wanting to recruit him was because old David recognized him, maybe because of his superb cooking skills—in short, not It's because he fell in love with him.
But if he just wanted to recruit him, it would be impossible to explain Arthurs' anger just now. Ji Jinrong saw a very familiar thing in Arthurs' eyes, similar to possessive desire, but not only possessive desire—
Originally, he had rejected this possibility when Arthurs apologized, but after Arthurs said "I'm a little jealous", Ji Jinrong's little heart jumped into his throat again.
What is Arthur jealous of
Ji Jinrong looked up at Arthurs.
He found that Arthurs' eyes had turned into that gloomy gray-blue again.
Arthurs eyes are really beautiful, and they change between ice blue and gray blue. Could it be related to Arthurs' mood
Ji Jinrong couldn't help but look at it for a few more seconds.
Then he noticed that Arthurs' eyes gradually turned a beautiful ice blue.
Ji Jinrong was dumbfounded.
Arthurs was in a good mood.
At least there is something about him that can attract Ji Jinrong.
Arthurs smiled and said: "You have so many friends, but I only have you, so I am very jealous, and wish I had to let you go half a step away."
Arthurs said it frankly, not feeling at all how shameless he was. Ji Jinrong was dumbfounded and said, "This is not the way to treat friends..."
Arthurs said shamelessly: "Is that so? I don't have many friends, so I don't know if this is right or not." He looked deeply at Ji Jinrong, "So you have to teach me more."
Ji Jinrong: "..."
His hunch last time was right! He really dug a hole for himself to jump into!
Ji Jinrong persuaded with earnestness: "To treat friends, we must respect each other. We can't bind each other in the name of friendship, let alone judge each other's actions by our own ideas."
Arthurs said, "You're quite right." With a smile in his eyes, "I'm very hungry."
Ji Jinrong: "..."
As soon as I heard it, I knew that this guy didn't listen!
It's too dangerous to be friends with people in power! You talk about business with him, and he talks about friendship with you; when you have a good relationship, talk about friendship with him, and he tells you that it's time to do business again.
Ji Jinrong could only obediently prepare dinner for Arthurs.
at the same time.
Duke William was in a fit of rage.
He hasn't been doing well lately. First of all, he accepted a free army general who came to join him.
Then, the general revealed to him several important strongholds of the Free Army, and he sent people to destroy those strongholds. Doubtless they met with stubborn resistance—
This is normal. Since the sudden emergence of the Freedom Army, it has been in operation for at least ten years. If you want to move it, it will inevitably hurt your muscles and bones!
So Duke William lost a group of capable soldiers, and finally took over these strongholds one by one.
The results are quite rich.
Except for two strongholds that were traps, the property and weapons looted from most of the strongholds satisfied Duke William very much. Compared with the aristocrats who are famous for extravagance, extravagance and waste, these lowly slave soldiers usually save money and save money!
Oh, it's perfect, very perfect.
The only thing that didn't please Duke William was that one of his capable subordinates was captured, along with some of his new weapons. Although he didn't quite believe that the slave army could be imitated, it still made him feel uneasy. What if those subordinates couldn't handle the means of the slave army and betrayed everything they knew
Duke William found a group of dead soldiers and gave an order: "At all costs, catch up with those untouchables who kidnapped Major General Angus, and find a way to kill them!"
This "they" obviously includes "Major General Angus". It's easier to kill than to save, after all, you don't have to worry too much about it!
The dead man's heart trembled, and he responded.
Duke William smiled and let them go immediately.
Only the dead can keep the secret perfectly.
As for the sacrifices of Angus and the others, both God and the New Empire will remember them. As a soldier, shouldn't he shed blood and sacrifice for the great cause of the country
Duke William took off the white gloves in his hand, crumpled them up and threw them away, and put on another pair of new gloves.
Oh, how beautiful his hands were, white and clean, like his sublime soul.
At this time, someone came to report: "My lord, we have found the whereabouts of Arthur Eric!"
Duke William smiled: "Very good. We'll let that pariah know right away that it's not so easy to be a coward!"
Moore came to the Arthurs mansion in a daze.
Arthurs was having dinner with Ji Jinrong, and the dinner was made of new ingredients that Ji Jinrong purchased at noon. Many of them were Ji Jinrong's first contact, so he chose the safe way.
Even so, Ji Jinrong made several "failures". Ji Jinrong was half full just by tasting the food in the kitchen, so his portion of meals was small and he ate slowly.
Seeing Ji Jinrong sitting with Arthurs eating in harmony, Moore's little heart shattered into pieces.
How can you do this! He didn't even have dinner with Arthurs!
Moore was very sad.
Ji Jin was deeply moved, looked up, and found Moore standing there with a little aggrieved, sad, and sad expression on his face.
Ji Jinrong: "..."
Feeling like I did something bad.
It used to be said that cousins and cousins are a natural pair. This cousin, cousin, sounds like the same...
Ji Jinrong coughed lightly.
Arthur followed Ji Jinrong's line of sight. Seeing Moore, Arthurs asked coldly: "What's wrong?"
Moore's eyes fell on Ji Jinrong. He knew Arthurs would like him!
Moore was frustrated. If it was before today, he would definitely not be convinced, and would even try his best to drive Ji Jinrong away from Arthurs. But after learning what kind of person Ji Jinrong was, he found sadly that Ji Jinrong was more mature and outstanding than himself—more suitable for Arthurs than himself.
Moore cried and said to Ji Jinrong: "You, you have to treat Arthur well!" After saying that, he burst into tears and ran away without looking back.
Ji Jinrong: "..."
Cat, who will tell him what happened!
Arthurs was very calm and continued to eat.
Ji Jinrong said, "Shouldn't you chase him out to comfort him?"
Arthurs finished the last piece of fragrant meat silently. He said: "I knew his feelings for me. His father died in front of him, and then I showed up to save him. He was not so much fond of me as admiration and empathy - he put his feelings for his father Transferred to me."
Ji Jinrong listened silently. In fact, he is really not interested in the relationship between their cousins, really!
Arthurs said: "And even if it's really that kind of liking, I can't accept it. Things like feelings have to be mutual, don't you think?"
Ji Jinrong nodded.
Arthurs said: "That's why I didn't give him any response. Since I definitely won't accept it, of course I don't give him any hope."
Ji Jinrong said: "Yes." He always thought that Arthurs was incomprehensible, but now it seems that Arthurs actually sees everything, and he understands it better than anyone else.
In fact, he should have thought of it earlier.
How can a person who can play with people's hearts and use them be dull in this regard.
Ji Jinrong was about to propose to leave when someone came to report: "My lord, something happened to Mr. Moore!"
Ji Jinrong frowned and stood up.
Could it be that the baby couldn't bear the blow, couldn't think about it
Arthurs stretched out his hand to hold Ji Jinrong's palm, signaling him to stay calm. As he walked out with the person who came to report, he asked the person to speak clearly.
It turned out that Moore ran out sadly just now, but encountered a tragic life-and-death struggle.
Soon, Moore was stabbed and held hostage.
The man who held Moore was wearing a dark blue uniform and appeared to be from Duke William's army - and at least a major general!
Arthurs and Ji Jinrong rushed over together.
When Arthurs arrived, most of the people had already been knocked down by that man, but he didn't hurt a single hair, and he still firmly trapped Moore in his arms.
Moore was terrified. Although he came from a humble background, he followed Arthur a long time ago. In the Freedom Army, no one dared to be rough on him. Everyone respectfully called him "Master" or "Master". He hadn't experienced the feeling of being in the hands of others for a long time.
Seeing Arthurs and Ji Jinrong arriving, Moore was a little embarrassed. The weakness and timidity disappeared in an instant. He straightened his back and said, "Arthur, don't promise him anything! Never be threatened by this guy!"
Ji Jinrong: "..."
Although he always thought Moore was cute, but this was too cute. When he yelled like this, he felt a sense of righteousness, what about Arthurs? If he really wanted to watch his only relative being killed on his own territory, Arthurs would not have to mess around in the future.
Being cute also depends on the time and place!
After Ji Jinrong finished complaining silently, seeing Moore's little face turned pale, he was deeply ashamed of his behavior of not being loved by friends. He looked at Arthurs, wanting to see what Arthurs would do.
Arthurs said: "Let him go, he is weak, and it is not good to bleed too much." Moore was poked a hole, and blood was gushing out.
Ji Jinrong: "..."
Is it really useful to say that
Unexpectedly, the "Major General" actually let Moore go, and raised his hands.
Moore: "..."
Moore looked at Arthurs, then at Ji Jinrong, and finally walked towards Ji Jinrong. When he was still a few steps away, his body softened and he fell onto Ji Jinrong. Ji Jinrong was stunned, and quickly reached out to hug Moore, and checked Moore's abdominal wound.
It's okay, it's okay, no serious injuries.
Ji Jinrong picked Moore up and said to Arthurs, "I'll take him back to treat the wound first."
Moore: "..."
Damn why this weak-looking guy can use Princess Hug on him!
Arthurs: "..."
Damn it, why does my cousin who has always acted like me fall into the arms of my sweetheart!
Ji Jinrong didn't notice the ups and downs of their cousins, and carried Moore straight to the pharmacy where Dr. Laian was.
Arthurs quickly calmed down and looked at the brave intruder.
He felt a strong murderous aura from the intruder.
This one obviously has done a lot of people with open swords and guns!
Arthurs said: "Name?"
The intruder said, "My name is Angus." He paused. "Angus Harman."
Arthur's pupils shrank. He had heard the name of Major General Angus. He had heard that he always wore a mask because of his ugly appearance, so no one knew his real face.
Now Angus is not wearing a mask.
Angus's face is definitely not ugly. The reason why he wears a mask should be... It should be an ordinary personal hobby.
After all, this guy is not handsome enough to use a mask to block other people's admiration.
Arthurs said: "What is your purpose?"
Angus is a bachelor: "I'm here to join the Freedom Army."
Arthurs: "..."
He took people from the Freedom Army hostage when he first arrived. Is there anyone who defected like this
Angus also seemed to realize that his approach was a little too much. He explained: "Actually, I didn't want to hold him hostage, but I wanted to protect him. The situation was a bit dangerous just now. If I didn't hug him, he would be killed. Then your people arrived and misunderstood me Intentions. You should understand this kind of thing, if I let him go, I won't be able to wait for you."
Of course Arthurs understands the principle of acting in a hurry.
He told everyone to lay down their arms. Angus is Duke William's confidant, and he is also a very great general. Regardless of whether his refuge is true or not, he should give Angus full respect.
The street is not the place to talk.
Arthurs led Angus to the office.
Angus knew that Arthurs couldn't trust him right away. If it was him, it would be impossible for him to trust a person who took refuge in him with empty words. But Duke William's actions made him disgusted. In the past, Duke William's dirty tricks were only aimed at others, and he was never needed to deal with it, so Angus didn't think there was anything wrong.
This time Angus was sent by Duke William to "take over" several major strongholds of the Free Army. At first, things went surprisingly well. But soon, Angus discovered something was wrong. At that juncture, it was impossible for Angus to go back to discuss with Duke William, so he made his own decision, pretending to be captured, and prepared to go deep into the enemy's rear to find out.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to approach the enemy's lair, the dead man of Duke William was waiting.
Angus was not very loyal to Duke William, he just liked the power that Duke William gave him, and he also enjoyed the beauty of battle and war. Now that Duke William sent someone to kill him, the relationship between him and Duke William was over.
Not much emotion anyway.
Angus retreated and killed, and touched the location of Arthurs. Just now he led those dead men into the dark alley, ready to kill them in one fell swoop.
Unexpectedly, a little sheep ran into it.
Although Angus was going to join the Freedom Army, he didn't intend to be a dog who obeyed orders. He held the little sheep hostage, firstly because he was really riding a tiger, and secondly, he wanted to take the opportunity to show off to the Freedom Army and let them know how powerful he is!
After explaining everything, Angus said to Arthurs: "Master Eric, I bring my sincerity..."
Arthurs laughed: "I would like to hear more about it."
The two sides had a cordial and friendly talk.
Arthurs left the office in a pretty good mood. The free army started late and had backward equipment. Duke William’s army was different. They had many new weapons, new equipment, and new technologies. Angus sincerely sold Duke William’s old background and brought Prescriptions against the plague...
The medical association has basically prepared the prescription for treatment, and if they add a preventive prescription, then they can really rest easy.
Arthurs did not let down his vigilance. He asked the pharmacists to rush out the prescription sent by Angus to the Medical Association and study it. If there is no problem, they will brew a batch immediately to prevent Duke William Repeat the old trick, do it again to the imperial army, to the imperial capital—
A madman has no sense at all.
Arthurs arranged everything before going to see Moore's injury.
Moore has woken up and is talking to Ji Jinrong: "Go back quickly, I don't need you to accompany me."
Ji Jinrong let out an "oh", and continued to turn down the book. This is the medical handbook of Dr. Ryan and his teacher. It is full of real cases, and you can't buy it anywhere else!
Moore: "..."
This guy is simply reading here, so why not accompany him!
"I didn't mean to pour it on you," Moore said.
Ji Jinrong knew that Moore was lonely, and wanted someone to chat with him. He said: "I didn't say that you fell on me on purpose. I know why you didn't fall on Arthurs, because you know he has a lot of things to deal with, and if he takes care of you himself, it will definitely delay business." He sincerely Compliment, "You're a smart and well-proportioned kid."
Moore blushed when he heard Ji Jinrong's last words. What's going on with this tone! This guy is a few years younger than him! How did such a tone of praise for children come out!
Moore said, "You are the child!"
Ji Jinrong said shyly, "Yes, I'm still a child."
Moore: "..."
Seeing that Ji Jinrong began to look carefully at the medical handbook again, Moore couldn't help muttering: "How could Arthur like a guy like you."
Ji Jinrong pressed the book. He said: "You misunderstood, Arthurs and I are not the same..."
Moore snorted: "Who are you lying to? Arthurs has never been so close to others! Arthurs has never eaten with people! Arthurs hates physical contact with others, but today he took the initiative to hold you The hand! I didn’t think about anything serious if I didn’t pour it on Arthurs, it’s because I was afraid that he would just push me away!” At the end, his eyes were red, and he looked pitiful.
Ji Jinrong was dumbfounded.
Arthurs hate contact with other people
At this moment Arthur opened the door and walked in.
He glanced at Moore whose cheeks were flushed from excitement, and said, "Take a good rest."
Moore yelled happily just now, but now he can't utter a word at all. Looking at Arthurs' calm and calm face, he understood a lot.
It turned out that Arthurs didn't know nothing, but knew everything a long time ago.
Moore unexpectedly found that he was not as sad as he imagined.
He was a little confused.
When he thought of "Ji Jinrong and Arthurs being together", apart from being a little jealous, he didn't feel the heart-piercing pain that he expected.
Didn't he actually have that kind of affection for Arthurs
Moore nodded blankly to Arthurs.
Arthurs looked at Ji Jinrong.
Ji Jinrong stood up and walked out with Arthurs.
The words that Moore yelled completely tore through the unbroken piece of paper between them.
Ji Jinrong was already vigilant, but after being told by Moore, he naturally fully understood.
Ji Jinrong walked quietly behind Arthurs.
Arthurs said, "I never thought I'd fall in love with someone before."
Ji Jinrong looked at Arthurs' straight back.
Arthurs said: "I have always felt like a man with no future. Although I have a free army in my hand, it is not my private property. On the contrary, it is my responsibility." He turned He turned around and stared at Ji Jinrong. Under the moonlight, Ji Jinrong's facial features looked very soft and slightly glowing. Arthurs said, "How can a person like me have the right to love someone? I can't give the other person anything, but instead put the other person in danger, and I can't live a peaceful life for half a day."
Ji Jinrong fell silent.
Arthurs said: "Until I met you. After I met you, I found that love is uncontrollable. I fell in love with you before I knew what emotion was surging in my heart."
Ji Jinrong: "..."
Ji Jinrong said, "We've only known each other for less than half a month."
"Sometimes all it takes is a glance," Arthurs said.
Ji Jinrong said: "I have a lover." He never made an oath to Wei Tingjun, but he was reincarnated twice, and only Wei Tingjun agreed with him.
Arthurs said: "You have been separated from him for a long time, and you may not even recognize him-maybe he is now married and has children, or even died by the sword of the enemy."
Ji Jinrong could only say, "I'm sorry."
Arthur's eyes gradually turned gray. He said, "I see." He said sincerely, "I will never force you."
Ji Jinrong breathed a sigh of relief.
The next day, Ji Jinrong failed to go to the refugee camp with Dr. Laian and the others.
Because he was busy moving.
To be precise, it is moving house.
The supervisor probably got instructions from Arthurs, and prepared a separate small courtyard for them, with enough room for the three of them to share one room. Probably afraid that he would not accept it, the supervisor said: "A Jin, you are now the chef, and the chef should live in such a place."
Ji Jinrong did not refuse this kindness, after all, it is really inconvenient to live like this now. He was fine, but Caroline was a girl! He was going to find a place to move out after receiving the first month's wages.
Caroline and the two knew nothing about Ji Jinrong and Arthurs, they only thought that this was the treatment that Ji Jinrong had formally "joined" Arthurs.
As a full-time employee, the housing specifications can naturally be mentioned!
Ji Jinrong didn't say much to them.
If old Robert knew that Arthurs was eyeing his little master, he might pull him away immediately.
Of course Ji Jinrong wanted to leave, but where could they go in this world
Don't forget, he is still the "Emperor for Five Days". Although he had only been in office for five days and hadn't enjoyed any emperor treatment, it would definitely not be a good end if he was caught.
Either die, or life is worse than death.
Besides, although Arthurs spoke very gracefully, a man's words were absolutely unbelievable. Maybe as soon as he proposed to leave, Arthurs turned around and found an excuse to detain him.
At that time, it will really be a knife and I will be a fish and meat, and I will only be slaughtered by others!
It's not easy to mix!
After Ji Jinrong moved the house, he accompanied Caroline to complete a big cleaning before going to the kitchen to continue exploring new ingredients.
I'm not in a good mood, and I want to add some Coptis chinensis to Arthurs' meals...
Coptis or something, clearing heat and dampness, purging fire and detoxifying, is very useful, and the effect is very good.
Ji Jinrong is a person with self-control, but in the end he still didn't put his ideas into practice. In any case, before Arthurs broke his promise, he was still a good leader and a good manager. His appetite is not just his own. The people from Duke William's side happened to be calling again, so they are likely to suffer along with it...
In order not to be killed by that lunatic duke, let's cook for Arthurs.
Ji Jinrong didn't go to eat with Arthurs anymore.
He very much agrees with Arthurs' approach, since he can't give a response, don't give the other party any hope.
Unexpectedly, the person who delivered the food came back soon and said to Ji Jinrong, "My lord said he has no appetite."
Ji Jinrong: "..."
What a [beep] dog! ! !
After much deliberation, Ji Jinrong still went to Arthurs with lunch. Even if we can't fall in love, we can't be bored, can't we? Not so naive, not so tossing!
When Ji Jinrong knocked on the door of the study, the Major General Angus who had come to join the Freedom Army happened to be there.
As soon as the two sides met, Major General Angus was stunned, and Ji Jinrong was also stunned.
This major general looks familiar!
This is the Viscount Coron!
A Viscount naturally wouldn't let Angus remember him for long. There are several earls who died in his hands. What is a viscount? The reason why Angus remembered Ji Jinrong was because this "Viscount Kelun" was pushed out to be the emperor in place of the dead ghost! ! !
Angus was the first to break into Horrow. Seeing the tragic scene in Fort Holo, Angus didn't have the heart to go on a killing spree, so when he saw the two masters and servants who escaped from the imperial city, Angus didn't pursue them relentlessly.
It's just a puppet, and it can't make any waves.
Of course, Angus is not merciful. In fact, he was already a little displeased with Duke William at that time, and he deliberately let Ji Jinrong, master and servant, just to make things difficult for Duke William.
If everything goes well in Duke William's "great cause", why do people like them need to exist
At that time, they will be the ones who will die.
I didn't expect that His Majesty the emperor he let go would be in the free army!
Angus praised: "My lord, what a means!"
Arthur's heart skipped a beat.
He realized that Ji Jinrong had a secret, and Angus knew what that secret was.
Arthurs didn't speak, just looked at Ji Jinrong quietly.
Ji Jinrong was silent, also not saying a word. Knowing his identity, what would Arthurs do? Will Arthurs use this as a reason to imprison him openly? It's not that Ji Jinrong is pessimistic, but that he has seen too many such things.
He has seen too many injuries in the name of love and encroachment in the name of love.
Arthurs has never been a soft-hearted person, will he be soft-hearted towards him, the "emperor" who hid his identity and sneaked into the Freedom Army because of the shallow "love" that occurred in just a few days? If it was him, he would not soften his heart.
Ji Jinrong stood there quietly.
Arthurs' eyes gradually turned gray-blue.
Angus finally realized that the atmosphere was not right. Could it be that Arthurs didn't know Ji Jinrong's identity? Arthur Eric, whom everyone praised, would keep a guy of unknown origin by his side? Something must have dazzled Arthur Eric!
Angus said: "It seems that His Majesty's ability to disguise is very good, even Mr. Eric has been deceived."
