Just like the previous life.

Murong Jingyan felt like his heart was about to rise into his throat.

Is she really...

"You're here."

A crisp voice came from behind.

Murong Jingyan turned around hurriedly.

Shen Muxi sat in a wheelchair, looking at him with tears in her eyes.

Two people in wheelchairs looked at each other from a distance.

There was clearly only a threshold between the two of them.

But it seems like a lot of changes have taken place.

I...I want to find you and find an answer.

Murong Jingyan couldn't say the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

"You remember everything?"

It took him a while to find his voice.

Seeing that Shen Muxi still had that indifferent look, his heart was pounding.

He was afraid that Shen Muxi would misunderstand him after knowing what happened in the past, and think that he was with her because of their incomplete previous life.

He was also afraid that Shen Muxi would still maintain his previous attitude even though he knew about the bond between them in their previous life.

While she was thinking, He Hong had already pushed him to her side.

Shen Muxi didn't retreat, but just lowered her eyes to look at the exquisite thin blanket covering her legs, "Let's change places to talk?"

Murong Jingyan nodded, "Okay."

...

The county lord's mansion has been renovated.

It is even more exquisite than when the Shen family lived here.

Next to the pear tree is a pond, and next to the pond is an elegant little pavilion.

I don't know when it started to rain lightly.

Silver charcoal was burning in the water pavilion.

Two wheelchairs sit side by side.

"When did you remember?"

Raindrops fell on the water, creating ripples.

It was exactly like Murong Jingyan’s mood at the moment.

Shen Muxi reached out to catch the few drops of water that splashed on the railing, and rubbed it gently. A hint of coolness spread across his fingertips and quickly dissipated.

"A few days ago, you were injured and unconscious. I held your hand, and then I felt sleepy and kept dreaming."

"I originally thought it was just an ordinary dream, but the feeling in the dream was too real, and some things really happened and existed, so I came back to the County Lord's Mansion to verify it."

"result..."

She shrugged and smiled faintly at Murong Jingyan. "Not only was the scene at the County Lady's Mansion exactly the same as in my dream, but even that crooked tree in the backyard, which I had never seen before and was rotten by insects, was there. I believed it. Plus... your sudden change in attitude towards me gave me a few more thoughts."

"Later, I kept sorting out the timelines and outcomes of the two lives. Everything that happened after your attitude changed was deviating from the trajectory of the previous life."

"The war between Nanyuan and Beichen, King Xian who was supposed to die during our mission, and... Gu Shi who achieved great success in his previous life, and Pei Wang who was banished and died tragically in a foreign land."

She looked into Murong Jingyan's eyes and told him everything she had experienced, one by one.

Murong Jingyan was shocked at first, but then he gradually became indifferent.

"I don't regret anything I've done since I came back. War between two countries is not what I want to see. Prince Xian was very suitable for a high position, but it's a pity that he's gone. Beichen will fall into other people's hands anyway, so why not let it fall into my hands?

Gu Shi owes you two lifetimes. In his previous life, he didn't get a good retribution. Pei Wang is also a talented person that I feel sorry for. It's a pity that his emphasis on righteousness is his strength, but it is also his fatal sword. "

He smiled bitterly, "In my last life, I couldn't help you. In this life, perhaps it was fate that gave me the opportunity to save Xiaoxiao and meet you again."

"But, what if, I hadn't come here..."

"Shen Xi and you have never been the same. In my last life, I also met you."

Murong Jingyan said it in a decisive tone.

Shen Xi opened his mouth slightly in shock.

Murong Jingyan closed her mouth casually.

"Guess why I was able to be certain that you were Shen Muxi all of a sudden when I had some doubts?"

Shen Muxi's pupils shrank slightly, "Since then you..."

Oh my God, at that time, she just thought that Murong Jingyan knew that she was not the real one and wanted to punish her.

All she could think about was how to save her life.

"At that time, it was just speculation, and what we knew was incomplete."

At this point, Murong Jingyan sighed deeply, "But, the feeling in my heart has always made me close to you."

"No, to be precise, I've been dreaming since I met you and Xiaoxiao. The dream is broken, but the impression after waking up is extremely deep."

"until..."

"Until what?"

"Until you gave me the exact same detoxifying elixir. At that time, I thought, no matter what strange feelings I had for you, I must protect you and your daughter."

"To me, Xiaoxiao is a member of my little family. No matter who Xiaoxiao's father is, as long as you are the child's mother, that's enough.

Your child is my child."

Hearing this, Shen Muxi suddenly looked up.

"how do you know..."

What she cared about most was that Murong Jingyan would betray her.

That’s Murong Jingyan’s attitude towards Xiaoxiao.

She was afraid that if she really gave in, Murong Jingyan would ignore Xiaoxiao.

Murong Jingyan looked at Shen Muxi with the same firm and pure eyes as always.

"Shen Muxi, I have schemed against many people, including myself, but I have never thought of scheming against you."

"I also know that what you fear most right now, besides my attitude, is that I will neglect Xiaoxiao when I have my own child."

Having said that, he carefully placed his hand on the back of her hand and interlocked their fingers.

"Please, leave a place for me in your heart. Gu Shi couldn't give you the sense of security, so I will give it to you."

"Words are not enough. I am willing to use time as a witness. Shen Muxi, stay with me, okay?"

When he spoke of the latter part, his voice was trembling and cautious.

Shen Muxi's heart seemed to be tightly gripped.

She had forgotten how to think at this moment.

The hand that was being held almost instinctively shook the hand that was about to be released.

"Then... try again."

She mustered up all her courage to meet his flattered gaze.

"Murong Jingyan, you know, I was deceived once before. If you deceive me again, I will fight you until death."

The flattery in Murong Jingyan's eyes disappeared, and he shook her hand with trembling hands.

"it is good."

On that day, Shen Muxi and Murong Jingyan stayed in the county lord's mansion.

Shen Muxi's legs were injured and he had to use crutches even to walk.

The arrow wound on Murong Jingyan's back is still healing.

Can't walk around for long periods of time.

The two injured people could only chat in their wheelchairs.

Nothing can be done.

Under the pear tree.

Shen Muxi and Murong Jingyan sat around the fire and made tea.

"Do you remember how many times we made tea?"

Shen Muxi poured Murong Jingyan a cup of tea. "When I was a soul in my previous life, I was by your side and served as a soul for a while. You liked to make tea in front of my grave."

"Because you said that tea can cleanse the anger in your heart."

Murong Jingyan picked up the teacup, sniffed it, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Pear blossom wine?"

Shen Muxi raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Your Highness has a very sensitive nose."

Pear Blossom Wine is a very old wine in Nanyuan.

According to ancient records, pear blossom wine is colorless and tasteless, only slightly sweet with a slight smell of alcohol when it first enters the mouth, and after drinking it, the mouth is filled with the fragrance of pear blossoms.

It has great potential.

According to legend, three strong men were no match for a bowl of pear blossom wine.

Murong Jingyan drank a small cup and immediately realized something was wrong.

Normally, pear blossom stuffing tastes slightly sweet.

But this pear blossom wine has a strong medicinal aroma.

It's not real pear blossom wine at all.

"This is..."

"Your Highness may not know that the poison in your body is not an ordinary poison. Removing the poison will only heal the wound."

After saying that, she raised her head and drank another cup, then stood up and walked slowly to Murong Jingyan with her crutches.

She took a step and paused.

Murong Jingyan's heart was in a knot.

Finally, after waiting for her to come to him, he raised his hand and pulled her over, letting her land steadily on his lap.

Shen Muxi took the opportunity to put her arms around his neck.

Pressing her lips against his with pinpoint precision.

Murong Jingyan stared at her closed eyes with wide eyes, his hands tightly gripping the armrests of the wheelchair.

In a moment, a bitter taste of medicine followed her kiss and gently entered his mouth and slid into his throat.

Shen Muxi stepped back and couldn't help laughing when she saw that he still maintained the same posture as before.

"I didn't expect that Your Highness would be so shy."

"you..."

Murong Jingyan's eyes were red, and the corners of his eyes were stained with fat due to lack of oxygen.

There was still the soft touch of her on his lips.

It took him a while to find his hoarse voice.

"You...what did you do?"

"what can I do?"

Shen Muxi held his face and spoke slowly, "I'm just transferring an antidote that can neutralize the blood poison in your body. Your previous poison has been cured, and now we're both poisoned by the same poison. From now on, you live and I live, you die and I die."

"You're crazy."

Murong Jingyan wanted to turn her over on the spot and use his internal energy to force the poison out of her.

Shen Muxi held his hand and smiled, "If I weren't crazy, there's no way I would ever try to start something with you again."

"Murong Jingyan, remember this. From now on, your life is not yours alone. If anything happens to you, I will not be able to survive either."

If you want to love, then be straightforward.

If he loved her and died for her, then they died at the age when they loved each other the most.

If he didn't love her, she would die and take him with her before she died to prevent him from harming other women.

Upon hearing this, Murong Jingyan hugged her tightly in his arms.

"Don't worry, we will all live long lives in the future."

He understands her.

If this can give her a sense of security, then he...

Sweet as sweet.

"Murong Jingyan."

"Ok?"

"What will you do if I don't want to have children in the future?"

"Then I will adopt someone to inherit the throne."

He answered without hesitation.

Shen Muxi smiled.

A smile is sweeter than the fragrance of blooming pear blossoms.

...

After recuperating in the county lord's mansion for half a month.

Shen Muxi and Murong Jingyan returned to the palace.

After fighting poison with poison, and after half a month of careful care by Shen Muxi, Murong Jingyan's spirit and energy were obviously much better.

The affairs of the previous dynasty were assisted by people arranged by Murong Jingyan before, and Murong Jingyan only needed to review the memorials on time.

He Hong and He Xuan were busy placing spies in the homes of various officials in the court.

Not many people knew that Murong Jingyan quietly left the palace and returned.

Except Gu Xiaoxiao.

As soon as Murong Jingyan and Shen Muxi returned to the palace, the palace servants went to tell Gu Xiaoxiao.

Gu Xiaoxiao came in a hurry with red beans and green radish.

"Mother, you and Uncle Gu are so mean. Why didn't you tell me that you left the palace for a short stay?"

Shen Muxi pinched her little face and said, "Isn't this because I'm afraid you'll worry?"

"You're lying. If mother was really afraid that I would worry, she wouldn't have left the palace."

Gu Xiaoxiao dodged Shen Muxi's clutches and raised her little mouth in protest.

Murong Jingyan and Shen Muxi looked at each other and saw smiles in each other's eyes.

Then Shen Muxi looked at Gu Xiaoxiao seriously.

"Xiaoxiao, are you willing to take Uncle Murong's surname and be his daughter?"

This was something Shen Muxi and Murong Jingyan had discussed during that half month.

Gu Xiaoxiao has experienced too many hardships in the past.

Whether in the previous life or this life, she died due to Gu Shi's neglect.

Gu Shi is no longer worthy of being Gu Xiaoxiao's father.

However, since the name was Xiaoxiao's, they still had to ask her opinion.

Shen Muxi was even prepared for Gu Xiaoxiao to consider it.

did not expect.

As soon as she said this, she immediately looked at Shen Muxi with joy on her face, "Mom, can Xiaoxiao really take Uncle Jing's surname and call Uncle Jing dad from now on?"

Murong Jingyan nodded, smiling gently, "As long as you are willing."

Gu Xiaoxiao immediately stepped forward and grabbed Murong Jingyan's hand happily, "Xiaoxiao is willing. From now on, Xiaoxiao will be Uncle Jing's daughter, right?"

Murong Jingyan deliberately frowned, "Still calling me Uncle Jing?"

"Daddy."

"Good~"

Shen Muxi was amused by their exaggerated expressions.

The family of three laughed together.

...

A month later.

Murong Jingyan's physical injuries have basically healed.

The coronation ceremony, which had been temporarily shelved, was put on the agenda.

The day of the coronation ceremony.

Shen Muxi is like a taut string.

"Where's the twelve-tasseled tiara? Wasn't it prepared in advance? Where is it?"

"Xi'er, wear it on my head, don't be too nervous."

"Nervous, yes, don't be nervous. It's just a formality, just be polite."

Who is nervous now?

Murong Jingyan tried hard to suppress the corners of his lips, opened his arms, and let her find any inappropriate places on his body.

Since last night, she has been so nervous that she wants to do everything herself.

Murong Jingyan did not stop her.

Because she cared too much.

Ascending the throne was a major event in his life, and so was it for her.

In fact, the moment she appeared, all etiquette had to be put aside for him.

She was so miserable.

For the rest of his life, he would give her all the sweetness...

...

The coronation ceremony went very smoothly.

Shen Muxi was on the viewing platform that Murong Jingyan had arranged in advance. From afar, she saw him wearing a black dragon robe with nine dragons woven in gold thread and a crown with twelve tassels on his head. He walked step by step to the dragon throne.

The moment of turning around.

Ten thousand officials paid homage and shouted:

"Long live my emperor."

The scene is spectacular.

Seeing this, Shen Muxi's eyes were filled with tears——

If he had not been impulsive in his previous life, he would have become the Emperor of Nanyuan long ago.

Fortunately, in this life, he got what he wanted.

She, too.
