After Zhu Yun finished smoking the cigarette, he planned to go back to the ward, but the communication phone in his arms suddenly rang.
After listening to his confidant's report, his expression suddenly changed.
…
When only Rong Wan and Lu Sujun were left in the ward, the atmosphere made Rong Wan unable to sit still. In fact, he was deeply aware of the auto-refill function of the world.
For example, in the original text, both Zhu Jing and Lu Sujun are supporting roles, and the relationship between them is only mentioned in a few hundred words. But in this real world, Lu Sujun's unrequited love for Zhujing has reached this level.
The burning eyes staring at him now also made him very uncomfortable. He sat for a while, and after inquiring about his condition indifferently, he thought about finding an excuse to leave. But Zhuyun didn't know what to do, he went out to smoke a cigarette for a long time and didn't come back.
Just when Rong Wan was thinking about whether he should excuse himself to be busy with military affairs and leave first, the door of the ward over there was pushed open, and Zhu Yun walked in. He was holding a communication phone in his hand, and his brows were furrowed imperceptibly. It seemed that he had just made a call and was in a bad mood.
Rong Wan stood up and asked, "What's wrong?"
Seeing him get up, Lu Sujun quickly moved his body, worried that he would leave just like that, and just about to open his mouth to find an excuse to keep him—Zhu Yun's cold and stern eyes swept over him.
"Major Lu, take a good rest first, let's go first, and come to visit another day." The tone was neither salty nor weak, but it could not be commented on.
It's not that Lu Sujun is afraid of Zhujing, the elder brother, but that the only elder brother in Zhujing's family is now in charge. If he wants to be with Zhujing, he will have to get Zhuyun's nod sooner or later. So Lu Sujun swallowed back the words that came to his lips, and nodded reluctantly.
He looked at Rong Wan: "Be careful on the road."
Rong Wan picked up his coat: "Yes."
Rong Wan followed Zhuyun out of the ward, but saw that Zhuyun's face was still calm, compared to the road, he looked much more serious.
Zhu Yun is a man with a lot of means. He climbed to a position that even the royal family fears. Naturally, he is not comparable to Xiao Xiao. All the officials in the entire capital have to give him three points. Therefore, the one who can make him frown Things are definitely not small things.
Maybe it was another dispute between the Nagisa family and the royal family.
Rong Wan had a bad premonition in his heart and asked, "What happened?"
"It's nothing, just a little trouble." When Zhu Yun looked at him, his expression suddenly eased, and he wrote lightly: "Jingjing, you can go back early, if you don't want to come here, Major Lu, don't come here, those guards I sent , you just let them stay in your mansion, don't be annoyed, and communicate with eldest brother in time if you have something to do."
Originally, according to Zhu Jing's character, at this time, he wanted to sneer at this big brother who loves to be affectionate, but Rong Wan saw that the concern on Zhu Yun's face did not seem to be fake, if he acted according to Zhu Jing, Zhu Yun might be sad to death , so Rong Wan paused, just nodded lightly.
Fortunately, such a lukewarm reaction did not exceed the judgment range of the rules.
And Zhu Yun was really flattered, seeing his younger brother so well-behaved for the first time, couldn't help but look at him more, the more he looked more satisfied, he couldn't help but want to reach out and touch the back of his brother's head cheaply, but he was afraid of being hated, So he desperately held back.
It's just that he still has important matters to solve, so he can't stay here, so after a few more instructions, he left the guards around him to protect Rong, and left alone.
Before leaving, he glanced at the slave out of the corner of his eye.
He was deeply worried, now the Zhu family is getting more and more uneasy, he was still dissatisfied with this slave, but now he gave up his plan to drive this slave away from Zhu Jing——
Because Zhu Jing was indifferent and arrogant since he was a child, he didn't trust people, and he didn't treat others well, so he didn't have many cronies around him. There are very few who are willing to give their lives to protect him. The slave stayed by his younger brother's side, and maybe he could save his life when the younger brother was in danger. After all, this slave seemed to be the only one who was loyal to his younger brother.
With this thought in mind, Zhu Yun ordered to send some of his trusted subordinates to Zhujing Mansion.
After Zhu Yun left, Rong Wan stood in the corridor, and hurriedly asked the system to recall the content of the phone call Zhu Yun had received, and got a piece of news that shocked him.
- Nagisa was assassinated! Just fifteen minutes ago.
Zhuyun probably didn't want him to worry, so he didn't say anything. But after Rong Wan learned about this from the system, the bad premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Father Zhu had been in a nursing home a few years ago due to injuries. His official position and title were basically inherited by Zhu Yun, and Zhu Yun alone supported his huge family business. In contrast, Zhu Jing had to bear much less. With the position of general, except for occasional battles, most of the time he stayed in the capital to cultivate and relax.
So Father Zhu, who has no real power in his hands, basically has nothing to do with the royal family in the past three years, but is just an old man who is preparing to live out his old age. But I don't know why I was assassinated suddenly!
Of course the assassination was unsuccessful, but Nagisa was still injured.
The system simulated the assassination scene, flipped through the surveillance files, and said, "The assassin was sent by the royal family. This is a warning."
How much do you understand? It seems that the muddy waters between the Nagisa family and the royal family are more complicated than he imagined. There are too few descriptions in the original text, so that he has very little information about it. It's almost clear what's going on.
It should be that Lu Sujun made a fuss about giving the marriage, which to some extent exacerbated the conflict between the royal family and the Zhu family.
Originally, the royal family regarded the Zhu family as a thorn in the flesh, fearing that the Zhu family would rebel because of its great achievements, so it constrained the Zhu family everywhere. If Zhu's father hadn't been ill in bed all year round, the two brothers Zhu Yun and Zhu Jing hadn't made any movement, and the royal family would have found them guilty long ago and got rid of them.
But now, in order to resist this marriage, Zhu Yun has fallen out with the royal family.
Zhu Yun and Zhu Jing dared to openly resist the decree, causing the royal family to be furious.
— Could it be that Zhuyun's sincerity towards the royal family was just a disguise? Just dormant, waiting for an opportunity to rebel? How could he ignore the royal family so much!
So the royal family first found an excuse to put Zhuyun into the monitoring room for a day and a night as a warning, which was not enough, and sent someone to assassinate Zhu's father, just to put an end to Zhuyun's arrogance.
…
Rong finished analyzing these, and couldn't help frowning. The original text naturally revolves around the protagonist, and is written from the perspective of the protagonist. The power disputes between these supporting characters are basically all mentioned in one stroke, but after they are really involved in it, they find that it is like a rushing river, and the whole body is affected by it.
He always felt that something would happen between the Nagisa family and the royal family in the end, and it would not end.
However, the original text did not give the final fate of a small supporting role like the Zhu family, so neither he nor the system knew which direction this matter would develop.
So, now we can only take one step at a time.
Zhu Yun purposely kept it from him and kept him from knowing about it, so he didn't have to visit Zhu's father, after all, Zhu's father was the person who knew Zhu Jing the most, it would be bad if he revealed his secrets in front of Zhu Jing's father up.
Only in this way, the matter of obtaining the energy source for the protagonist must be put on the agenda as soon as possible. No matter what happens, if he has a leading role, it is equivalent to having a golden finger.
After thinking about it, Rong Wan asked the system to watch Zhuyun for him, and if there was any danger from Zhuyun, he would tell him immediately.
**
It was still raining heavily outside, Jin Zhao held up an umbrella for Rong Wan, and the two got into the car.
The loyal bodyguard left behind by Zhu Yun also wanted to come up, but Rong Wan waved to him and said indifferently, "Go back, don't follow us."
The guard stood in the heavy rain and hesitated for a moment.
Rong Wan quickly frowned: "How dare you not listen to me?"
The guard naturally knew that Zhu Yun always put his younger brother first in everything, and it would be better to offend his own master than to offend Admiral Zhu Jing, so he had no choice but to retreat.
The car sped up on the road.
Only Rong Wan and the protagonist were left in the back compartment, so he naturally relaxed a lot, leaned lazily on the back cushion, turned his head to look at the protagonist, and said, "Take you somewhere." He contacted the doctor who treated the protagonist's eyes, That doctor is the most suitable candidate found by the system after a large number of screenings. He is a mute, good at medicine, loyal enough to the Zhu family, and will not let it out casually.
The protagonist sat with his back straight, tilted his head, looked at him seriously, and nodded after a while.
Rong finished speaking in a tone of discussion, but seeing that the protagonist actually obeyed it as an order, he couldn't help laughing: "Jin Zhao, don't you ask me where I want to take you?"
The protagonist's eyes are full of wholehearted trust, looking at him, as if looking at some light in the dark, serious and stubborn, slowly said: "Don't ask."
Being stared at by such eyes, Rong Wan only felt sore and swollen in the heart, but at the same time, he also had a feeling that his back was being protected.
He knew in his heart that even though he had obtained his promise, the protagonist was still worrying about gains and losses at this time, not sure whether he was abandoned by him or betrayed by him. But even so, the protagonist has already made a decision, no matter how he treats him, he will protect him and never betray him.
The protagonist's feelings are like a raging tsunami, almost drowning and suffocating people, but what he paid is only a small wave, which is simply unmatched. After realizing this, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
"You can look at the buildings along the road, which have changed a lot from thirteen years ago." Rong Wan reminded.
After all, the protagonist has not lived a normal life for thirteen years, and has been staying in the prison and Zhufu before, and has never come out. Today, he finally came out. Of course, the protagonist should have a look at the scenery outside.
The protagonist nodded, turned his head to look outside, but there was a flash of disappointment in his eyes——
He actually wants to see me more
Rong Wan thought about it, so he added: "This is not an order. If you don't want to look outside, you don't have to."
As soon as he finished speaking, the protagonist immediately turned his head around, his eyes fell on his face without blinking, and a clean and neat line was twisted out of his fair and slightly pale neck.
Rong Wan: "..."
**
Just as the two people were communicating in the car, the driver's car suddenly stopped on the road with a sudden brake. Although Rong Wan had Zhu Jing's mental power, but he was not as good as Admiral Zhu Jing, he was caught off guard and rushed forward with his forehead.
He was about to hit the back of the seat in front of him, but was blocked by the protagonist with a hand across—
His forehead hit the protagonist's palm, and it didn't hurt at all.
Rong Wan didn't care whether the protagonist's hand was injured, he immediately narrowed his eyes vigilantly, and looked towards the front of the car. I saw another black car lying across the front of the car, Rong Wan only felt that the car was familiar, and when the people on the car got off, he couldn't help but frown, could it be unfamiliar? Isn't that Lieutenant General Us that I saw in prison
It seems that he also visited Lu Sujun just now and left this way.
Jin Zhao also caught a glimpse of Us, and his hair exploded like a beast entering a battle state, and his eyes suddenly became fierce. Rong Wan patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to relax, and then he was stunned and adjusted his state.
"Bang bang bang." General Us bent down and knocked on Rong Wan's car window.
Rong Wan lowered the car window with a cold face, his face was frosty: "Lieutenant General, your driver can't drive anymore, do you need someone to teach you?"
"Haha, if the admiral is willing to come and teach in person, it would be my driver's honor." Us obviously knew about the fact that the royal family suppressed the Zhu family one after another, and it seemed that he was not so afraid of Zhu Jing anymore. With a gloating smile, he looked extremely annoying.
He didn't see who the person sitting next to Zhujing was, but he saw that he was only wearing a guard uniform, so he didn't pay much attention. The last time Zhujing blatantly snatched his favorite slave away from him, he still held a grudge. Seeing that the Zhu family was at a disadvantage, he couldn't help but came over to provoke him and asked, "General, you were forced to marry by the royal family?" How does it taste?"
Rong Wan felt mmp in his heart, and his face was calm, he raised his eyelids and gave him a half-smile, "It's better than those who live to be in their thirties and can't marry a wife. None of the nobles in the royal family think of a lieutenant general." You."
"..." Wu Si's face turned livid.
"Drive." Rong Wan ordered the driver.
The driver said tremblingly, "The lieutenant general's car is blocked, so I can't drive through."
Rong Wan's face remained unchanged: "Run over."
The driver slammed on the accelerator, and the car immediately flew out like an arrow off the string, while the driver of Lieutenant General Usi was still in the car, so frightened, he hurriedly drove the car aside to get out of the way. The two cars met on a narrow road, and the rain poured out from the ground, drenching Us from head to toe.
After Rong finished looking back at Usi, he was in a good mood, but he heard the protagonist ask in his ear: "General, do you need me to kill him?"
Rong Wan turned his head to look at the protagonist, but saw that the protagonist's face was calm, and there was no emotion when he asked this question, so he couldn't help but hurriedly said: "No, no, no."
Imaki nodded.
Rong Wan: "..."
The location of the private doctor was extremely remote, and it took more than an hour to drive on the road to arrive. The geographical location has basically left the sphere of influence of Kyoto, it can be regarded as deep in the mountains and old forests. After Rong finished asking the driver to park the car at the bottom of the mountain, he went up with the protagonist himself. Fortunately, the doctor's residence is not high, it is only halfway down the mountain, and it is only a few steps up the mountain.
Although the protagonist never questioned what Rong Wan was going to do, as soon as he walked into the operating room, his body immediately tensed up, and he was very resistant. There was a huge shadow on this kind of place, and his face quickly turned pale. The doctor lived deep in the mountains, didn't know much about the outside world, didn't know what happened to the protagonist, and tried to get close to him—
But as soon as he got close, the violent gloom and hatred in the protagonist's eyes startled the doctor. The darkness in those eyes was almost suffocating, as if he would rush over and strangle his throat at any time.
The doctor couldn't help but took a step back, looked at Rong Wan as if asking for help, and opened his mouth silently, General.
Rong Wan is equivalent to witnessing the process of the protagonist being transformed with his own eyes, because the author of the original text is very newspaper, wrote those details in detail, and is very professional, so Rong Wan seemed to have something choked in his throat, Although I can't bear it, it's for his own good to heal the protagonist's eyes now.
There is no one else here, so Rong Wan held the protagonist's hand, trying to transmit the temperature of his palm to him, and said softly: "This doctor is a good man, I invited here to treat your eyes for you."
When Jin Zhao saw these white coats, his nose was filled with the smell of disinfectant, and his mind was filled with scenes of being transformed into human weapons in the laboratory. What's more, those memories were too painful, his memory mechanism instinctively forgot most of them, all he could remember was the shaky nothingness figure, the anesthesia inserted into his neck, and the tweezers and scissors in front of him. When he woke up again, many of his memories were taken away by those people. When those people gave him orders to kill, he would not even have the thought of disobeying. He didn't know which of his nerves had been modified—
He recalled those painful memories like never before, and stood there tense. For a full ten minutes, his mind was buzzing, and he couldn't react to the outside world at all. He was even aroused with the idea of killing, and became a little violent in an instant, and his blood boiled involuntarily.
But the general whispered something in his ear.
hurry up and hear-
Quick to respond-
Otherwise, the general will not want him.
Jin Zhao forced himself to wake up from that abyss-like nightmare almost self-harming. His hand squeezed Rong Wan's hand tighter and tighter, he forced himself to think about the admiral, the admiral's face, outline, lips, voice, those things that could make him completely drowned in darkness mouth so he could breathe.
Until he suddenly started panting, he was sweating profusely, and Rong Wan's bones were almost crushed by him.
Imaaki reluctantly pulled out of that state, only to suddenly realize this—
His face immediately turned pale, and he suddenly grabbed Rong Wan's hand, his lips trembling a little, and he said in an obscure voice, "I'm sorry."
