Hua Mu was busy, and the flower clusters were not idle either. The royal clansmen came all over the place, and when she saw that one, she had to see this one. A lot of the messy things on weekdays were concentrated at this time, and it was a bit of intrigue.
But what made her feel more tired was the conflict with Huazheng.
The so-called queen and leader, to put it bluntly, are two kings inside and outside. One is in the light and the other is in the dark, and the queen generally doesn't care about secret things, and she can't care about them. It is a gray boundary, and it is also the basis of mutual trust. So there are some things, as long as Huazheng doesn't talk about flower clusters, in all likelihood, they won't know.
But this time it was too much. The sudden appearance of the white pillow not only disturbed Hua Mu's peace, but also made the relationship between mother and daughter become precarious again. And all of this is thanks to Huazheng!
What's even more hateful is that even at this time, the other party still doesn't plan to tell everything. She drove Huazheng back to Neta in a fit of rage, but she didn't expect the other party to leave so quickly.
Not only was Hua Mu guessing what was going on with this white pillow, but Hua Tu was also thinking about it. The easiest way is to go to the mausoleum to determine the body, but Hua Mu didn't move, and she was afraid that she would make an unnecessary move.
After experiencing the death of her lover, her daughter's temperament has matured a lot, and her mind has become deeper. Sometimes she really can't figure out the other party's thoughts.
In the end, Huatu had no other way to vent his anger besides scolding Huazheng in his heart.
The imperial capital gathered a bunch of royal relatives, and the gatherings became unusually large. Today the host, and tomorrow the wine maker, everyone is moving around. Some even have to give face to the flower clusters, and if they can't find the time, they will send Hua Mu to act on their behalf.
Today's family banquet was held by Huayuan Ziwei. Not only did they invite the flowers, but also Huayuan Jiangque.
White Pillow came with Derek, and the two have a pretty good relationship as colleagues now. Derek inherited his father's title, entered the inner tower as an ordinary person, and established a special department to train ordinary soldiers who could confront the sentinels and guides head-on.
Because the research direction is very unpopular with sentries and guides, the department is extremely short of manpower, and he is also filling in the funds himself. The arrival of the white pillow really solved his urgent needs, and he turned a blind eye to some things, and decided not to investigate further.
But when he met Hua Mu with the white pillow, even Derek felt awkward for a while. When he was young, he teased and bullied this cousin a lot, but after that incident five years ago, he has restrained a lot, and now the two can be regarded as a harmonious group.
"Mumu, it seems to have been gone for a while." Derek tried hard to ignore the stiff and tense atmosphere that circulated around Hua Mu, and said intimately and modestly, "Didn't Bai Huang come with you?"
"Bai Huang and my mother will come later." Hua Mu's attitude towards Derek is not what it used to be, and she has some admiration in her heart after knowing the deeds of this cousin. However, the white pillow beside him is too conspicuous now, Hua Mu contacted him and Hua Zheng and immediately classified him into the category of "enemy".
"His Royal Highness." Bai Zhen didn't get a single glance from the beginning to the end, and felt a little lost in his heart, but he couldn't help but take the initiative to say hello.
Knowing that this was a family banquet, White Pillow didn't plan to come. After all, her identity is unclear, and coming here only adds to the embarrassment. However, Huayuan Jiangque repeatedly urged her, and Derek invited her graciously. After all, she couldn't hold back the flickering in her heart and came with Derek after get off work.
She knew that Hua Mu would come.
Hua Mu glanced at her and nodded lightly.
Derek cleared his throat, "I'll go and greet Grandpa Ziwei first. Why don't you bring a white pillow to meet someone Mumu? Grandpa Jiangque said he'll be here later."
Hua Mu looked indifferent, "Brother Derek is still so lazy."
Derek pretended to be stupid and said, "After all, Mumu, you are a princess now, so what you say works."
When White Pillow heard that Derek was going to hand him over to Hua Mu, he was a little nervous while secretly happy.
"That's too much trouble, Your Highness, I'd better turn around by myself..."
To be honest, White Pillow never wanted to climb the high branch of the royal family, so naturally he had no enthusiasm for getting to know these clansmen. If you can, it's better to walk through the scene and then find a reason to leave.
As for Hua Mu's inexplicable feeling, after seeing the indifferent attitude of the other party, she knew that she should try to restrain it.
Hua Mu interrupted her, "It's okay, I'm just going to say hello, I can't neglect you when Grandpa Jiangque is not here."
Very polite and distant, Bai Zhen felt a sense of loss in his heart for some reason.
Hua Mu was very conscientious, took her around, and roughly recognized the person. Although other people were a little curious about Huayuan Jiangque, the adopted daughter who appeared out of nowhere, they never got to the bottom of it when they thought of that maverick.
Because Hua Mu used to protect her guards, almost no one recognizes her now.
There was still some time left before leaving the table, and the guests were all greeting each other. Bai Zhen didn't want to trouble Hua Mu any more, and planned to leave with an excuse.
Hua Mu has made a good plan not to admit this white pillow, but the situation has developed to such a point that she can't help but wonder how Hua Zheng will end. The white pillow is not very famous in the royal family, but he has a lot of reputation in the inner tower and the sentry circle. Now that he has appeared in a grand manner, is there no doubt that no one has any doubts
More importantly, what kind of identity should this white pillow live in in the future? After all, Huazheng's approach is really irresponsible, and what is the difference between it and Huace
Although Hua Mu didn't want to admit that the white pillow was her lover, she didn't hate or hate her. After all, the other party was just a victim.
But it's impossible to get close, no matter what aspect she considers, she shouldn't have too much contact with this person.
"Then, please come back before dinner, and I will send a waiter to show you the way."
The white pillow thanked Hua Mu, and then went to the garden alone to breathe.
It's not that she doesn't like members of the royal family, she just doesn't get used to the atmosphere - furthermore, she doesn't like being scrutinized and paid special attention to. The purpose of her coming to the emperor was to find the past, and someone gave her such a promise.
"Are you still getting used to work?" Just as Bai Zhen was staring at the night lights on the roadside in a daze, a figure silently appeared behind her.
"Lord Leader!" She immediately recognized the voice, stood up and said hello to the faceless man, "How do you..."
The Faceless Man waved his hand, telling her not to be too polite.
"Some people don't want to see me, so they come to the garden for a walk. Are you still getting used to work and life?"
"There is no inconvenience. Although the Response Section is only just starting, Director Derek has a plan and is currently proceeding in an orderly manner..."
"I'm not asking this, you've recovered for half a year, and your body is okay now, right?"
Although the White Pillow Club came to the imperial capital with the instructions of Huayuan Jiangque, it was mainly because of the invitation and promise of the leader.
"The latest examinations have been fine, only the surgery on the left arm will have to wait and see for a while before it can be done."
"What about ability? Have you sensed the spiritual body?"
White pillow heard that he was originally a real sentinel, but he lost his mental body in a previous accident and became a guard. This is not uncommon among Sentinels, and many Sentinels who are seriously injured or nearly killed will do so. Not only become guards, some Sentinels may even become ordinary people directly. Some of them can be recovered, and some of them cannot. It is something that cannot be forced.
And with the disappearance of the spiritual body, the memory will have some influence more or less, as if the connection with the past has been cut off.
"not yet… "
The Faceless Man was silent for a while, then reached out and touched Bai Zhen's shoulder.
"You don't need to be burdened. Although the past is very important, you don't need to force it. I invited you to come to the emperor out of selfishness. If you feel uncomfortable, you can leave at any time. Just do what you want."
Although the leader's voice was always cold, White Pillow could feel her concern for her. It's not that she didn't think that she had a relationship with her, but she didn't understand why she didn't let others mention the past to her - simple reasoning can tell who the person who can make all the sentinels and guides shut up obediently.
Let her come to the imperial capital, but let people hide her, she doesn't understand the leader's intention.
"Lord Leader, I appreciate your arrangement, I just don't understand..."
The leader looked up at her, and the green eyes were a bit illusory in the night.
"I want you to feel it, not hear it. Humans are creatures that change, time is the most terrifying killer, death is the sharpest knife, and if some connections are cut off, they may never be connected. You... let you make the choice."
"choose?"
"Yes, not to live for others, but to choose your own life. I hope you can stay in the imperial capital for a while, but I will never interfere with your choice in the future."
"I see..." White pillow vaguely knew that the leader was for his own good, but he still had doubts in his heart, "Can I ask a question?"
"Is it about Her Royal Highness?"
For some reason, the white pillow was not surprised that the leader knew what he thought.
"I just find it strange... Have I ever offended her in any way?" Such a statement is really arrogant, but White Pillow thinks of her attitude and can only make such a reasoning.
"Oh, this matter..." The leader pondered for a while, but his words were a little uncertain. "Should it be considered offensive? It seems like it is not, but in general, even if it is offensive, it should not be considered a bad thing."
White Pillow couldn't understand at all.
"If I did offend her, I hope to apologize to her even if I don't remember."
For some reason, the leader seemed to pat her on the shoulder happily, "Do you care about her?"
Bai Zhen blushed a little, feeling a guilty conscience of being caught.
"I just don't want to..."
I don't want Her Royal Highness to dislike it.
"It's okay, you don't have to explain it to me. That's fine... I mean, being willing to apologize for something you can't remember is a rare quality. The dinner is about to start, so come in."
"What about you?"
The leader said indifferently: "Don't care about me, I'm not someone who can appear on that occasion."
The author has something to say: Leaders who have always been considered to have no feelings are actually very pitiful.
