Arthurs felt a strange feeling in his heart when he heard Ji Jinrong call out "stone". He felt that this title was very familiar, as if it had been integrated into his soul.
Stone
If Arthurs hadn't been sure that no one had called him that way, he would have almost agreed.
Arthurs held Ji Jinrong's hand: "Did he ever swear to you like this?"
Ji Jinrong smiled slightly.
He opened his arms and gave Arthur a hug.
He recognized it, not by looks, not by temper, but by soul.
The soul does not lie.
Arthurs froze.
Ji Jinrong's sudden closeness made him feel like he was dreaming.
This dream was too real and too beautiful, so he didn't want to wake up.
But, I had to wake up.
Arthur wanted to hug Ji Jinrong back, but couldn't help asking: "Is his name 'Stone'?"
Although he fell in love with the boy in front of him, he didn't want to be anyone's substitute.
He wants the boy he loves to truly love him, not to see him as someone else's shadow—if that's the case, he'd rather not have it.
Ji Jinrong could feel Arthurs' contradiction.
If he were Arthurs, he would not accept such a thing immediately, after all Arthurs has completely lost the memory of the past—only a little bit of instinct remains.
Ji Jinrong said, "He's not called Shishi." He hugged Arthur even tighter.
Arthur's body temperature was scorching hot, and a powerful heartbeat was beating in that fiery chest.
Ji Jinrong had heard this kind of heartbeat countless times, but at that time he might be more used to it than love.
What is love? Ji Jinrong still hasn't fully grasped it. If there are levels in love, then he can only be regarded as a novice who has just started.
But he will study hard.
Ji Jinrong said: "His name is Wei Tingjun, and he is a very stubborn guy, like a rock that cannot be split, moved, or broken, so I call him Stone."
Arthurs listened quietly.
Ji Jinrong said: "He was always by my side, but he never told me what kind of feelings he had for me. Until one day, we separated."
Wei Tingjun went to another world and experienced countless hardships and trials that he didn't know before ushering in their reunion.
Ji Jinrong hugged Arthur tightly: "We have been separated for a long time. Even I can't tell how long it was for him, because it has always been a blink of an eye for me-and it took him a long, long time , wait for me to blink like this."
What Ji Jinrong said was so mysterious that Arthurs should not have understood, but somehow, he understood what Ji Jinrong was talking about.
His heart beat stronger than before, as if something was gushing out from the depths of his heart—
The person in his arms is his.
The person in his arms belongs to him.
His existence is not just to fulfill the mission on his shoulders.
Arthurs stretched out his arms, embraced Ji Jinrong tightly, and called out a long-lost address: "Your Majesty."
Ji Jinrong froze.
He looked up at Arthurs.
Arthurs bowed his head and kissed Ji Jinrong's lips, not deeply, but lightly touched it.
Just like this, he already felt that his limbs and bones were full of happiness.
Arthurs said: "My lord, I can't remember—I can't remember what you said. But I know it's our memory, Your Majesty, it's our shared memory, isn't it?"
Ji Jinrong stared at Arthurs: "Yes."
Arthurs said: "At that time, I must have loved you the same way." He grabbed Ji Jinrong's slender waist, as if he was holding the most important treasure in the world, "It's also like this now, I wish I could stay with you all the time Together."
Ji Jinrong stood on tiptoe and gently kissed Arthur's brow: "Yes, we stayed together all the time, traveled to many places, and tasted a lot of delicious food. It was at that time that I learned all kinds of food. How to make this kind of food. The first thing you made was a bit unpalatable, and you said it was not good, but you ate it all. Every time I give food to them, your face will be terribly black —”
Arthurs couldn't recall those pictures, and commented with a smile: "That's indeed what I would do." He hugged Ji Jinrong tightly, "But now, I can't do what I did back then."
Arthur Eric is the leader of the Free Army.
Arthur Eric bears the future of most people in the Freedom Army on his shoulders, and also bears the hatred that the teacher was killed. Maybe one day in the future he can let go of these responsibilities, but before that he can't leave half a step away.
Once he lost his leader, Duke William would soon disintegrate the Free Army.
Duke William has never been kind to the "untouchables". Everyone in the Free Army will be killed by him—or become a test subject that is worse than death!
Duke William is a guy who is very keen on doing human experiments. The plague that turned Fort Hollow into a "city of death" was caused by Duke William.
Compared with the countless casualties of the imperial civilians and the imperial army, the people under Duke William have all received a prescription to prevent this plague—that is to say, Duke William regards the plague as his own weapon!
If it fell into the hands of this lunatic, no one in the Free Army would survive.
Therefore, there is no way for Arthur Eric to stop.
His future was already tied to the future of the Freedom Army, and he could no longer promise it to Ji Jinrong. Even when he made an oath to Ji Jinrong, he could only utter the oath "Anyone who wants to hurt you must first step on my dead body".
What's more, he had to use his identity as the leader of the Free Army to protect Ji Jinrong.
Arthurs' pain and struggles were fully passed on to Ji Jinrong.
Ji Jinrong said: "At that time, we were busy with everything before we stole 20 years of leisure time." His eyes were firm, "I have seen everything you see. Duke William is a lunatic, and the system of the empire has also changed." It is not suitable for continuation, and these obstacles must be cleared if the Freedom Army wants to be truly stable. Even if you want to avoid all this with me, I will not do that.”
Arthur's whole body came alive.
Arthurs once secretly visited old David and asked old David what he and Ji Jinrong talked about.
At that time, he wanted to judge from old David what kind of nobleman Ji Jinrong was.
It was only after hearing the words relayed by old David that something called "throbbing" really appeared in Arthurs' heart. Ji Jinrong is indeed different, he is different from other nobles, he can see what other nobles cannot see, and he can understand what other nobles cannot understand—his soul is so beautiful, it makes Lao Dai Vido couldn't help being moved.
Arthurs kissed Ji Jinrong's forehead: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ji Jinrong smiled at him, put his arms around his neck and kissed his lips.
When Angus came to the pharmacy, Moore fell asleep again.
So fragile. Angus felt a little excited when he smelled the faint smell of blood in the air.
Seeing Angus' unfamiliar face, Dr. Ryan stepped forward to ask him why he came.
Angus said, "My friend is hurt, and I'm going to see him." He gave Moore's name.
This little sheep is Arthurs' only cousin. Although his strength is not as strong as Arthurs half a finger, he is delicate.
Angus came to the "ward" and sat on the edge of the bed, pretending to be waiting for Moore to wake up.
Seeing Angus's calm demeanor, Dr. Ryan only thought that he was really Moore's friend, so he didn't bother him any more, and let Angus stay by Moore's bedside.
When Moore woke up, what he saw was Angus who was lying on the bedside and fell asleep.
Moore's eyes widened.
Angus, who was sleeping soundly, looked harmless, with his beautiful chestnut hair raised slightly, and he must have looked handsome on weekdays, but this time his sleeping face was a bit innocent.
Why is this guy here!
Angus heard the sound of Moore waking up, sat up, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, as if he hadn't woken up.
Seeing Moore staring at himself with wide eyes, Angus said with a smile: "Oh, little sheep, are you awake? Don't look at me like a lost lamb, or I can't help but kiss your cute mouth .”
Moore felt a chill all over his body.
The fact that Angus can come and go here freely means that Arthurs has already talked to him, and that Angus has already defected to the Freedom Army--
Thinking of this, Moore decided not to argue with Angus. He said, "Why are you here?"
Angus said: "What a cold little sheep." He explained to Moore, "I didn't intentionally hold you hostage yesterday, the situation was too dangerous at that time, I didn't have time to explain to you, so I had to hug you and protect you .”
Moore still had lingering fears when he thought of the thrilling experience last night.
But in retrospect, Angus seemed to have no malicious intentions. Except for his uneasy hands, they really protected him—otherwise he would have been stabbed more than once.
Moore was still young, and his thoughts were written on his face.
Angus secretly laughed inwardly.
It is not surprising that Arthurs accepted his statement. After all, Moore was not really hurt, and Arthurs would certainly not refuse his refuge because of the fact that he held Moore hostage.
As for what happened in the end, Arthurs should know it well.
He is not a kind person~
If it wasn't for the fact that this little sheep was Arthurs' only cousin and looked very interesting, he would never have come to apologize.
The little sheep in front of him is different from Arthurs, this little sheep really believed his statement.
It's so naive, so cute, and so alluring!
Angus reached out and pressed Moore's eye sockets: "It's still red here. I cried so sadly yesterday that I couldn't even see other people fighting..."
Moore sullenly said, "Don't touch your hands!"
Angus raised his eyebrows: "Am I making a move?"
Although Moore can't fight, he is still very sensitive to danger. There are some things that cannot be retreated. Once you take the first step back, you will definitely be forced to fail in the future!
He stared at Angus: "Yes, this is hands-on, we are not that familiar."
Angus said: "We will get familiar with each other soon." He showed a handsome smile, "Master Eric asked me to assist you in completing the configuration of preventive medicine. If we don't cultivate a tacit understanding, how can we get things done How about it?"
Moore: "..."
Moore did not drive Angus away in the end.
In the next few days, the whole city was in a hurry. The preventive medicine is not effective after drinking it once, it needs to be taken for at least three days, so the consumption of medicinal materials is very large, and Moore had to find Ji Jinrong to figure out the blending plan of medicinal materials.
Angus was actually listening in on the sidelines.
Seeing that Moore was worried, Angus said, "Why do you insist that everyone drink it? Many people will die under the sword of the enemy even if they drink the preventive medicine and avoid the plague."
Ji Jinrong could hold back his silence, but Moore couldn't. Moore said: "Don't bring Duke William to the Free Army! The Free Army will not classify, every life is equal!"
Angus stared at Moore, sneered, and said nothing.
Moore blushed.
Ji Jinrong signaled him to be safe and calm, he listed the transportation route and asked Moore to arrange things.
Angus followed Moore out. Walking outside the door, he stretched himself.
When he first came to the Free Army, it was impossible for him to be reused as before. So he decided to play with Moore first, and when Arthur Eric needed him, he would serve in the army.
Unexpectedly, Arthurs Eric's cousin turned out to be such a naive guy.
Fortunately, Arthurs Eric is not such a person, otherwise he would never have taken refuge in these idiots!
Seeing that Moore was still a little angry, Angus silently acted as an errand runner, helping Moore to settle things one by one.
When Moore saw Angus working so hard, his anger just now gradually disappeared. During the meal, Moore's face was tense, and he said to Angus sternly: "Since you intend to join the Freedom Army, you have to put away the things you are used to from Duke William."
Angus stared at Moore's serious face, unable to laugh at his stupidity for a while.
Angus said, "Do you really know what kind of person your cousin is?"
Moore was dumbfounded.
Did he know what Arthurs was like
he does not know.
If he knew, he wouldn't be so far away from Arthurs.
He couldn't figure out what Arthurs was thinking, couldn't figure out Arthurs' mood, let alone what Arthurs would do next.
Moore's bewilderment was written all over his face.
Angus said: "Your cousin will not agree with your idea. If his leader's ideas are the same as your naive ideas, the Freedom Army will soon cease to exist. Sometimes, Sacrifice is for better preservation." Arthurs Eric is a ruthless man who can use Duke William's hand to eliminate dissidents!
Moore lowered his head.
Seeing Moore's downcast little look, Angus understood everything. He laughed: "Do you like your cousin?"
Moore shuddered. He stared at Angus: "No!"
Angus said: "Oh, no, I guessed wrong, I'm sorry." Mingming said "I'm sorry", but his tone was not half apologetic.
Moore: "..."
Angus hit Moore mercilessly: "You give up, your cousin won't like you."
Moore said, "I know, he likes Ah Jin."
When Angus heard Moore's words, he instantly understood what was going on with the weird atmosphere between Arthurs Eric and Ji Jinrong.
Oh, so it turned out that the leader of the free army fell in love with the fugitive emperor, what a very interesting situation!
Moore had no idea that he had sold Arthurs and Ji Jinrong. He said: "A Jin is so outstanding, of course my cousin likes him."
Angus said: "In fact, liking this kind of thing has nothing to do with whether it is good or not. Sometimes you may fall in love with it at a glance."
Moore said sadly: "It is true..."
Angus approached slightly, and breathed hot breath on the side of Moore's neck: "So, don't like him, find someone else."
Moore stiffened.
Angus raised his hand to play with Moore's beautiful earlobe: "For example, how about liking me?"
Moore: "..."
Ji Jinrong, who witnessed the whole process: "..."
Ji Jinrong found Arthurs and told him that his cousin was going to be raped, and the people who wanted to rape his cousin seemed to have bad intentions.
Arthurs listened and reassured Ji Jinrong: "Don't worry, Moore won't suffer. Although he is a bit stupid, he is not so easy to believe in Angus. Taking a step back, even if he really believes It’s okay, love is what you want, where can you suffer? He is also eighteen or nineteen years old, it’s time to start having sex. Angus is a veteran flirt,” he hugged Ji Jinrong, talking Turn around, "My lord, when will you grow up?"
Ji Jinrong: "..."
Ji Jinrong was still worried: "Although everyone is male, there is nothing to suffer, but what if Moore gets hurt by him?" Hearing Arthur's calm tone, Ji Jinrong almost doubted Moore's fate. Is it his cousin. Why is he more worried than this guy
Arthurs said: "It's time for Moore to grow up. We can help him get out of suffering under our noses. If he gets hurt when he faces everything by himself in the future, then we will be beyond our reach." Well, that's right, Arthurs dumped the blame on others after preparing to build a new empire.
They can't take care of Moore for a lifetime, can they
Arthurs said: "After being cheated by someone like Angus, it will be very difficult for anyone to hurt him in the future."
Ji Jinrong: "..."
You are so right, I am speechless.
Ji Jinrong didn't know what expression to give Arthurs. With such a cousin, Moore's life can be regarded as difficult. According to Arthurs' logic, it is nothing more than: if you are beaten by a particularly strong person at the beginning, you will not be easily beaten by others in the future; if you are played by a master in love at the beginning, you will not be easily played by others in the future.
Seeing that Ji Jinrong was speechless, Arthurs couldn't help saying: "I know you don't agree with me, but Moore is an adult. He has his own ability to distinguish and has the right to make his own choices—Angus can go If you tease him, he can ignore Angus."
All in all, he doesn't care, resolutely doesn't care, let Angus play with Moore freely.
Ji Jinrong quietly lit a candle for Moore.
Ji Jinrong didn't worry about Moore for too long.
Because Duke William started to do it.
It's spring recently, and the weather is a bit humid, which is the season when infectious diseases are high. Ji Jinrong and Moore closely monitored the situation in the surrounding towns, and soon, they heard very unfortunate news.
Duke William placed plague sources in towns with a radius of hundreds of miles.
Once an infectious disease breaks out, it will spread rapidly.
The outbreak of the "plague" caused great panic in major cities and towns. The city where Ji Jinrong and the others were located already had the Imperial Medical Association, so civilians and nobles filled with fear and hope flocked here desperately.
If you look down from a high altitude, this scene will definitely make many people terrified: countless sallow, emaciated, sick and bony refugees gather here from all directions!
They're not the army, but scarier than the army.
No one knows which of them are the terrible "plague source" and which are dead men disguised as refugees.
If this kind of thing happened to anyone, they wouldn't know what to do with these people.
Angus approached Arthurs and said, "It seems that your whereabouts have been exposed."
Arthurs said: "I thought about how long I could keep it a secret."
Ji Jinrong said: "Since you dare to stay here for so long, you should have expected such a thing to happen?"
Arthurs said: "This terrible situation must be ended by someone." During this time, they concentrated on the medicinal materials and rushed to refine the healing and preventive medicines. The reliable soldiers in the army were dispatched to the Imperial Medical Center Association, in order to welcome the arrival of this day. He said, "These refugees came at the right time, and all I want to do is to tell everyone that there is no one in this world who is not afraid of the crazy Duke William."
The reason why Duke William is invincible is nothing more than his ruthless means, ruthless heart, and his unparalleled madness—or insanity in other words—into places where innocent people live.
What if someone is not afraid
