Ji Jinrong's succession was supported by everyone.
But before succeeding to the throne, the queen asked him to write a succession edict, promising to return the throne to Andy when he became an adult.
The queen tried a few times and found that "repairing the relationship" was not feasible at all, so she had to put the matter aside—to prevent Ji Jinrong from being greedy for power and position in the future and refusing to return everything to his younger brother.
Ji Jinrong didn't have any objection to this, more than ten years was enough for him to teach his younger brother Andy well and prepare to leave the empire.
Ji Jinrong drafted the imperial edict without hesitation.
Seeing Ji Jinrong being so forthright, the empress felt the inexplicable uneasiness in her heart deepen. She opened her mouth, wanting to make amends and say a few intimate words, but found that she didn't know what to say.
Ji Jinrong smiled and handed the imperial edict to the queen.
He said: "You go back and have a good rest. You will also attend the succession ceremony tomorrow."
The queen held the imperial edict she asked Ji Jinrong to write down, feeling that it was a bit hot for no reason.
For the first time in so many years, she was so close to her eldest son. She found that the eldest son looked very similar to her deceased husband, with eyes as deep as the sky in the dark night, but with a little more smile.
That kind of smile is something she will never understand.
It's as if what he wrote just now was not the imperial edict, what he gave up was not the empire, and it was not his biological mother who forced him to do so.
So peaceful, so happy, not like being deprived of everything in the future, but like handing over a matter that I don't care much about to others.
Unloading the burden, on the contrary, is extremely relaxing.
In this case, why did he work so hard to win the throne that did not belong to him
The queen was a little puzzled. She didn't want to leave with doubts, so she asked the question directly.
Ji Jinrong was taken aback.
He didn't hide anything, and his tone was obviously joyful: "Because he can only find me if he stands in this position."
he? The queen was confused.
Ji Jinrong said: "I made an appointment with him, I will be the emperor well, and wait for him to come to me." With a smile on his lips, "Don't worry, I will return the throne to Andy when he comes—maybe at all Don't wait until Andy is of age."
Seeing that Ji Jinrong didn't seem to be joking, the queen felt a little blank. She said: "Who is he you speak of? Aren't you engaged to Hayden Clement? Now he has nearly all of his father's army, if he knew about it—"
Ji Jinrong interrupted the queen: "He knows." He didn't intend to mention too much with the queen, and he just talked about "him" just because he was happy. Ji Jinrong said flatly, "Haydn already knew about it. I will resolve my engagement with Haydn myself. You can go back."
The queen said: "No! If you break off your engagement with Haydn Clement, how can the Clementon family continue to support Andy in the future!"
Ji Jinrong frowned. He said: "You doubt the loyalty of Haydn and the others? If their family is really no longer loyal to the empire, even if I marry him, it won't change anything, right?"
The queen said, "If you want, you can surely make him—"
Ji Jinrong ruthlessly shattered the queen's fantasy: "I don't want to."
The queen said it so clearly, how could Ji Jinrong not understand what she meant. Her calculation was that he would return the throne to Andy, and then continue to marry Haydn to consolidate the status of the royal family.
If it had been him, he probably would have done the same.
Just not as stupid as the queen.
Ji Jinrong said: "The only reason I stay in the empire is to wait for 'him' to come to me, and when he comes, I will leave with him."
Since the empress opened up the matter, Ji Jinrong naturally also opened up the matter.
He doesn't mind if the queen knows everything, because even if the queen knows, she can't change anything. Not only will she not make it public that he is a Beta—or even a "monster Beta", but she will also seal the mouth of all insiders for him. !
Wasn't that how Gabby Melville was sent to a nursing home
Ji Jinrong knew people like the queen very well. She only had the word "interest" in her eyes, and she only cared about what she valued, just like she loved Gabby Melville so much, and she didn't hesitate to deal with their family for the sake of the newborn Andy.
For now, the queen basically has no other way to go except to "cooperate" with him.
Ji Jinrong said: "In this case, don't you feel more at ease?" He didn't change his smile, "If I really hit it off with Haydn and love each other so much, you should be more worried, right?"
After being reminded by Ji Jinrong, the queen also thought of this.
Now that Ji Jinrong's reputation is already very high, if she is joining forces with Haydn Clement, then the will in her hand will be of no use at all...
The queen thought it through clearly, and put a gentle smile on her face: "Then, the queen mother wishes you to wait for your sweetheart as soon as possible."
Ji Jinrong was very happy that the queen could reach an agreement with him. He said: "I accept your good words."
The conversation between the mother and son ended here.
The queen went back with the imperial edict written by Ji Jinrong in satisfaction.
Ji Jinrong sighed.
Thanks to the Queen's lack of ability and power, otherwise she would definitely screw up a lot of things with her thinking.
I hope his poor little brother won't be tossed too much in the future.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ji Jinrong lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
It was only when Ji Jinrong's breathing became even that there was a slight movement outside the window. Andy's mouth and nose were covered all the time, if it wasn't for Alpha's naturally high mental power, he would have been out of breath.
After releasing the hands covering his nose and mouth, Andy's eyes turned red instantly.
Standing behind him was Haydn whose mental power was several times stronger than his.
Haydn looked at Andy's red eyes indifferently, and said with a sneer, "Don't wake your brother up, follow me."
Andy followed Haydn blankly, bypassing the surrounding defenses and leaving Ji Jinrong's residence. Originally, he had finished identifying a batch of mecha parts and wanted to be praised by Ji Jinrong, but he didn't expect to bump into the queen and come to Ji Jinrong.
He heard everything the queen said to Ji Jinrong.
He also knew what the queen did to Ji Jinrong.
The queen mother forced his elder brother to pass the throne to him because his elder brother was a Beta. When Andy wanted to rush up and say that I don't want it, someone covered his mouth tightly to prevent him from making a sound.
Andy was forced to listen to the entire conversation.
His elder brother has always been treated like this by their queen mother, so his elder brother is leaving, going away with others, and ignoring him as a younger brother—he must really hate him, right? Just because he was born an Alpha, their queen mother loves him, protects him, and gives him all good things.
And because his elder brother was a Beta, he didn't even see his mother's face at ordinary times, and was thrown into the care of Dr. Lance since he was a child.
Andy's eyes were red, he clenched his fists, and said sadly: "It's not fair, it's not fair!"
"I don't think it's fair either," Haydon said.
Andy looked up at Haydn. He had always felt that Haydn didn't like him, let alone his queen mother. Now, how could Haydn like them? Her mother treated her elder brother like that, and he was born to take everything from his elder brother.
Andy said firmly: "I won't want it!" His tears welled up, "I won't want the throne my brother gave me, I won't let my brother leave the empire!"
He couldn't let his brother leave with nothing.
Haydn was very satisfied.
His eyes were dim and he said, "I won't let him go either."
From the conversation he heard just now, Haydn learned a little more about Ji Jinrong's "sweetheart".
Did it turn out to be an appointment to make him emperor? The agreement made by that "sweetheart" was a bit too difficult, maybe he didn't take Ji Jinrong to heart at all, and used such words casually to prevaricate Ji Jinrong!
And Ji Jinrong must have been very young at the time, that's why he was deceived by that guy.
When you were so young, did you know what a "sweetheart" was? Haydn felt that it was because Ji Jinrong was completely disappointed with the empire and the empress that he took that "sweetheart" and the so-called agreement as a life-saving straw!
Thinking of Ji Jinrong's expression when he mentioned "sweetheart" to the queen, Haydn felt his whole heart was on fire.
And uncomfortable, but also distressed.
What is distressing is that Ji Jinrong has suffered so many unfair treatment since childhood.
The sad thing is that he obviously has the opportunity to be by Ji Jinrong's side, and has the opportunity to become that "sweetheart", but he has never really cared about everything about Ji Jinrong, allowing that hateful "sweetheart" to take advantage of the opportunity!
Haydn clenched his fists.
Andy noticed Haydn's expression, and felt vigilant in his heart. From what Ji Jinrong said just now, he could tell that Ji Jinrong didn't like Haydn! If his brother doesn't like it...
Andy suddenly had infinite courage in his heart, and said viciously: "I won't let you force my brother!"
Haydn looked at Andy in surprise, who was clearly terrified, but still insisted on confronting him.
Andy said: "My brother doesn't like you, I won't let you force my brother to tie you up!"
Haydn was furious. When Ji Jinrong said this, he didn't have to worry about it, after all he was reluctant to do anything to Ji Jinrong - but how dare this little Douding say that!
Haydn glared at Andy.
Andy silently hinted to himself "I'm an Alpha" "I'm an Alpha", not letting himself avoid Haydn's gaze: "You don't really like brother at all! You just want to possess brother!" "If you like brother, you wouldn't deliberately let me hear these things, trying to drag me to your side to trap brother!"
Haydn's face was gloomy.
He couldn't deny Andy's statement.
Haydn really wanted to put Andy on his side, and combined with Andy to trap Ji Jinrong in the empire.
Unexpectedly, Andy, who was only five years old, could say such a thing!
He doesn't like Ji Jinrong
He just wanted to possess Ji Jinrong
Andy said: "You are not reconciled because you know that brother likes others!" He looked up and looked directly into Haydn's eyes, "If you really like brother, you will not only think about how to trap him, but will understand Why does my brother want to leave, to understand what kind of life my brother lived before, to understand what my brother really wants—at least I think so!"
Hearing Andy's words, Haydn felt that anger swept over him, taking away all his rationality: "What do you know! You are only five years old, what can you understand!"
Feeling Haydn's anger, Andy couldn't help taking a few steps back. He was terrified, but still unwilling to back down: "I will never let you hurt my brother!"
Haydn was very angry: "How could I hurt him!"
Andy looked at Haydn silently with a sullen face.
When Haydn thought of everything he had done in the past, he felt a little distraught. He stuffed Andy into the room and let Andy go to sleep, and walked alone in the night.
All he has for Ji Jinrong is possessiveness
Is he just not reconciled to Ji Jinrong falling in love with someone else
No, that's not the case.
Haydn didn't want to admit it, but he found sadly that it was indeed the case.
He discovered everything that Ji Jinrong had encountered—discovered Ji Jinrong's dangerous situation, discovered the empress' indifference and indifference to Ji Jinrong, but the feeling of distress was only fleeting—anger and desire quickly drove away the little distress, Occupy his whole heart.
All he did seemed to be to possess Ji Jinrong, not to love Ji Jinrong.
And this was actually told to him by a five-year-old child.
So how can he blame Ji Jinrong for falling in love with someone else—
Who would like a person who is full of resentment and unwillingness to possess himself? !
Haydn felt that his whole body was being cut by the knife, and the pain was unbearable. It's just that this kind of pain is nothing compared to everything Ji Jinrong has encountered before.
For so many days and nights, Ji Jinrong could only survive alone!
Haydn didn't know how he got out of Ji Jinrong's window. He followed the half-closed windows and the gauze curtains blown by the wind, and stood quietly in the night wind looking at Ji Jinrong's peaceful sleeping face.
He never knew that the wind at night in summer could be so cold.
Haydn stood until it was broad daylight.
Ji Jinrong on the bed slowly opened his eyes.
Haydn's gaze was fixed on Ji Jinrong's face all the time. The moment Ji Jinrong opened his eyes, his heart seemed to come alive bit by bit, beating vigorously and tenaciously.
Ji Jinrong noticed the figure standing outside the window and frowned slightly.
He got out of bed, walked to the window and pushed open the window and curtain, and saw Haydn who seemed to have turned into a statue.
Ji Jinrong's heart shrank inexplicably.
For a moment, Haydn's figure overlapped with the figure in his memory. That person was the same, standing quietly outside the house night after night, every time he opened his eyes he could see him standing outside the house.
They were never particularly close, but he could see it as soon as he opened his eyes.
The boy said: I am afraid.
"I'm afraid to go back to sleep, because I'll hear the news of your illness when I wake up the next day." The boy gritted his teeth as he said this, "I'll be on duty from now on, at least in the middle of the night—every time You're always sick in the middle of the night - those guys are always lazy - I'm afraid."
Ji Jinrong stared at Haydn through the window lattice.
Even though they were completely different people, they actually gave him a similar feeling! Thinking about it carefully, Haydn's temperament is actually so similar to that boy in memory, even the cold face and forbearance in the past four or five years have many similarities!
Ji Jinrong asked, "You stood outside all night?"
Haydn was silent.
Ji Jinrong said, "Why didn't you come in?" With Haydn's current strength, he should be able to sneak into his room without a sound.
Haydn stared at Ji Jinrong, his heart throbbing with pain. Thinking of the word "persecution" that Andy said, his voice trembled slightly: "I said, I will not persecute you, and I will never persecute you."
Ji Jinrong looked at Haidun with eyes full of sadness and self-blame.
This kind of emotion seems to be a memory that suddenly plays back in front of my eyes.
is it possible-
Is it possible that the Haydn in front of him—
Ji Jinrong paused for a moment, and opened his mouth to probe: "If you weren't planning to persecute me, why did you rush to gather the military in your hands these past few years?"
Haydn's face turned gray. Ji Jinrong has long seen his actions, his calculations, and his plans!
Haydn stood there dumbfounded.
His look betrayed what he once thought.
Ji Jinrong's heart was pounding.
Haydn really planned to control the army, and wanted to trap him by controlling the army! If he really wanted to fly away, Haydn would definitely not just use it to "trap" him!
At that time, he will not be caught without a fight, and Haydn will not let it go—
People's hearts will change. After reaching a certain height, even if Haydn has no intention of treason, the people around him will still want to push him to the top!
Ji Jinrong quickly deduced everything that might happen, and suddenly found that the person he had been waiting for might be by his side!
Although he didn't plan to look for it, he knew everything about the empire well these years. If there really was such a "rebellious minister and thief", he should have already entered his sight. However, he looked left and right, but he didn't see the possibility of that person becoming a "rebellious official and thief".
At least he doesn't think anyone can really shake his position.
However, if it is Haydn...
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, all kinds of clues that were originally scattered and disordered will be quickly connected by it.
Ji Jinrong also stared at Haydn.
They have been together for eighteen years since they were born.
If Haydn is really a stone, then neither he nor Haydn recognized each other and fell in love with each other this time!
Ji Jinrong was a little dazed.
Haydn's eyes never left Ji Jinrong's face, seeing the rare confusion on Ji Jinrong's face, his breathing became somewhat difficult for some reason.
Haydn tried hard to find his voice: "I used to be a bastard..." His eyes were slightly red, "I swear, I will never have that kind of thought again in the future, and I will never force you to do anything again."
Ji Jinrong said, "You're not just a Beta, are you?"
Haydn was taken aback.
Unable to judge intuitively, Ji Jinrong can only proceed from the facts: "You only have a male reproductive system? You don't have an internal vagina in your rectum?"
Haydn blushed and said, "How do you know?"
Ji Jinrong: "..."
Because he is too.
Ji Jinrong felt relieved.
He said, "You can remember things since you were born?" He remembered that in the previous worlds, stones had such special features—for example, since Feng Su was born, he remembered that Sheng Baishuang raised his sword and wanted to kill him!
Hearing Ji Jinrong's question, Haydn inexplicably felt that this answer was very important.
How did Ji Jinrong know these things
Haydn felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
Ji Jinrong got the answer from Haydn's expression. Even though he had vaguely guessed just now, when he actually faced the facts before his eyes, Ji Jinrong was still really stunned.
It was understandable that Haydn didn't recognize him, after all, Haydn had no previous memories. Unexpectedly, this time he would not recognize him again, and he would firmly draw a clear line with Haydn—
It's also stupid.
Ji Jinrong suddenly didn't really want to admit all this...
He glanced at the inexplicably nervous Haydn, stretched out his hand and pulled Haydn forward, hooked Haydn's neck and kissed him.
Haydn froze.
This feeling is completely different from the last forced kiss.
Haydn felt his heart was about to explode.
Waves of heat shot up from his lower abdomen and quickly rushed to his mind, making him wish to tear down the window sill separating them, hug Ji Jinrong fiercely into his arms, and invade the sweetness more thoroughly and intensely. And alluring lips.
It was Ji Jinrong who kissed him!
It was Ji Jinrong who took the initiative to kiss him!
Does this mean that Ji Jinrong has let go of that "sweetheart"
Haydn only felt a wonderful pleasure spread through his limbs.
A possessive kiss is different from a lover's kiss.
Haydn vaguely passed such a thought.
Seeing Haydn's bewildered expression, Ji Jinrong immediately understood everything. No wonder Haydn didn't fall in love with him. When Haydn came here, he was just a baby who could remember things. If he really wanted to say that he was special, he wasn't that special. So before he awakened his mental power, Haydn was just an ordinary child!
Compared to him who had memories, the current Haydn was a blank slate.
Although Haydn is tall and has a particularly high mental strength, in fact, he doesn't know what love and liking are at all, and he can only blindly follow the desire in his heart.
How could such a Haydn fall in love with him
Ji Jinrong smiled.
He didn't expect that the person he had waited for so long was by his side from the very beginning.
Haydn met Ji Jinrong's smiling eyes, and was inexplicably embarrassed: "What are you laughing at?!"
Ji Jinrong's words were teasing: "Laughing, you can't even kiss?"
Haydn: "..."
Haydn suddenly hugged Ji Jinrong forcefully, and said viciously: "You wait for me! When we get married, I will definitely make you unable to get out of bed!"
Obviously it was Haydn who uttered harsh words, but Ji Jinrong felt his arms trembling, and the warm liquid also slipped from Haydn's face to his neck.
The guy actually started crying.
The author has something to say:
Your Majesty: Poke Crying Bag, don’t call it Shitou, call it Crying Bag.
Haydn: ...
