This has nothing to do with the theory of blood, but it is related, after all, it is only related to the congenital inequality of human society, Xu Le remembered what Huai Caoshi said back then, and couldn't help laughing at himself.
Human beings hate betrayal, because it brings extreme insecurity, and the cold gun from the companion behind is always the most difficult to defend against, so whether it is the Federation or the Empire, among all the moral norms, the punishment for traitors is always the heaviest, such as the current Mu En, but it does not include himself.
He has the "noble" blood of the Bai Hibiscus Huai clan in his body, when he changed from a federal hero to a quasi-prince of the empire, even the federation has many people who do not think this is a betrayal, they will only think that it is a bloody arrangement of fate, and in the empire, absolutely no one dares to mention or even remember how many imperial youths he has killed on the battlefield, and even assassinated the royal family.
If he was just an ordinary person, then he had betrayed the Empire in cold blood, and then shamelessly betrayed the Federation, he would have died in countless cold blades, if you want to understand this, you can probably understand Mu En's helpless choice a little more.
A big banyan tree on the side of the road, when the two were about to say goodbye, Mu En asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
"I said to a guy the other day that I don't have any choice but to hope for a truce between the two sides.
This is really a relationship of moral justice or humanity without fart, to use a metaphor that may not be appropriate, this war is like a father and mother picking up a kitchen knife at home and splitting each other, what else can I do as a son" "That's right, it's a natural choice."
Mu En patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, and after a little thought, he said directly: "I may have to return to the organization soon, and I may have to use your name at that time." ” "You want to go back" Xu Le frowned and asked: "Now everyone, including the Federation, knows that you are a traitor, how can you go back?"
"Tang Zhizhong and Qi Dabing are dead, you should be able to guess that the people in the organization will attribute their deaths to you, and my mission back to the organization is to take the evidence provided by the Intelligence Agency and expose the true face of Qi Dabing to them."
"Who will believe the evidence you provide?"
"Evidence is such a thing, you can believe it when you need to believe it, an organization that has fallen apart and has been scolded by countless people who originally supported him, the first problem now is to survive, as long as this evidence can give them an excuse to change and survive, they will believe it."
"Can you be clearer?"
"Under the direct command of His Highness, I will lead the entire resistance organization, cooperate extensively with the royal family, and build a united front to resist the invasion of the Federation."
Mu En said calmly: "I believe that most of the comrades in the organization will agree to this approach. ” Xu Le shook his head and said, "The two people that the Resistance Group hates the most, one is the dead Caton, and the other is Huai Caoshi, who leads the Intelligence Agency, and it is impossible for them to agree to cooperate with her. ” "I'm not talking about Her Royal Highness, Your Highness the Princess."
Mu En smiled and said, "It's you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ” Holding the fruit knife with steady fingers, cutting close to the thin skin, he was able to repair the delicate structure with only his naked eyes, and it was naturally very simple to deal with the apple, almost instantly, seven circles of thin skin were gently peeled off, and he held the white raw apple like a lantern and handed it to Aunt Susan's mouth.
Aunt Susan looked at him with a smile, shook her head and said that she didn't want to eat, her expression was still haggard, she looked at him quietly and asked, "Little guy, who are you?"
Hearing this question, Xu Le didn't know how to answer, whether it was fleeing in the courtyard back then or coming back this time, Aunt Susan could detect his difficulties and rarely asked about these things.
In fact, he could have directly explained his identity, and believed that the aunt would not treat him differently because of this, but thinking of her current physical condition, he didn't want her to be too stimulated.
Thinking of the previous doctor's statement, his mood was a little low, the results of the comprehensive medical examination were not very good, the delicate aristocratic lady became an aunt who scolded her mother in the market, and there were too many hardships in life behind the dramatic surname, especially the hardships of the early years, which caused great damage to Aunt Susan's body, and now by the combination of wind and cold, it was all erupted, although it was not life-threatening, but it required a long time of meditation and recuperation.
"I work for the Intelligence Agency, well, I think I'm not a small officer."
Xu Le replied with a smile: "Those gangsters who kidnapped you are mainly to take revenge on me, and it is really my fault that you are involved." ” "You've apologized so many times."
Aunt Susan looked at the black hair under his brown hair, coughed twice, and then said with concern: "Is the palace no longer tracking you down, your hair will continue to be dyed, otherwise it will be difficult for people to see it." ” "I'm not a fugitive, what are I afraid of" Xu Le rubbed his hair and explained: "Dyeing my hair is mainly for convenience. ” Aunt Susan sighed and said, "The little guy is always cheating, this is the Second Royal Hospital, if you are just an ordinary official, how can I live here" "You know," Xu Le replied embarrassedly.
"Don't forget, I was also a young lady of a noble family when I was a child, although I was not qualified to see a doctor in the royal hospital, but with my parents visiting a big nobleman, even now, I have not forgotten the beautiful plum forest in the back mountain."
Aunt Susan looked at him and smiled, sweet memories of her girlhood flashing across her chubby round face.
"I said I had a good relationship with Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Xu Le said with a smile.
Aunt Susan's expression suddenly darkened, and she gently grabbed his hand and said, "There is still no news from Paul's side, can you help me ask" Xu Le was slightly stunned, remembered what he heard that day, and nodded.
Although not all the top officials of the empire knew who Xu Le was, asking in the name of the Intelligence Agency soon had an answer close to the truth, but that answer was not a good answer.
The reason why Paul's allowance has not been transferred to Aunt Susan's account for a long time is indeed because he does not have his electronic signature, and the reason why Paul did not sign is not because he has no time to take care of this matter with His Highness patrolling the front line, but because he has disappeared at the front line.
Xu Le frowned and looked at the latest list of missing persons sent by the military department, looked at the eye-catching name at the bottom of the page, and the sun-soaked smiling face of the imperial youth in the small courtyard came to his mind.
He has served in the federal military for many years, and he knows very well that the so-called list of missing people often means the list of the dead, but because the remains of the soldiers have not been found, or under the large fire weapons of the other side, they have directly turned into fragments nestled with mountains and rivers.
For the sake of Aunt Susan's health, he was not going to tell her the news, but Aunt Susan's ability to observe words and emotions that she had cultivated for many years in the mixed and difficult environment of the slums played a role at this time, and she looked at the melancholy between Xu Le's eyebrows and eyes, and spent half the night forcing out the truth.
Aunt Susan suffered a tragedy when she was a girl, and when she was a little older, her brother joined the Xilin Expeditionary Army, wanting to earn military merits to restore the glory of the family, but the brother never returned, until decades later, he got the bad news of burying his bones in a foreign land and a broken book.
Life was unfair to her at every turn in despair at the most hopeful moments, but she was strong, and she stubbornly survived with her young son in the most dilapidated ghetto of the empire until she heard the news of his disappearance at the front.
The endless pain and darkness instantly crushed Aunt Susan's spirit, and her already extremely weak body was rapidly emaciated, and in just two days, she could see the deep sunken cheeks, and she could only lie helplessly and sadly on the bed, looking at the sky outside the window with the smell of plum trees in a daze.
Xu Le accompanied her silently, watching the aunt move towards death step by step, he gently held her face, felt the touch of being much thinner than before, and said with a smile: "It's good to be thin, even if it's to lose weight, after Paul comes back, he must be very happy to see a more beautiful mother." ” Aunt Susan pulled the corners of her lips with great difficulty, looked at him and smiled, and said weakly in a hoarse voice: "I've worked hard for you these days, and you don't have to make me happy anymore." ” "It's not to make you happy."
Xu Le stood on the side of the bed, looked at her face, and said calmly: "You must live, because I will go to the front line to find him, I promise you, as long as he is alive, whether he is captured by the federal forces, or abandoned in the valley, even if he is lost in hell, I will bring him back alive and bring him to you." ” Very calm words, but there is a certain unbelievable firmness, like a stone silently smashed into the annoying wet mud, without any earth-shattering sound, but smashed into a deep pit that is difficult to erase.
Aunt Susan's eyes slowly appeared with a certain brilliance, a certain brilliance of life, and gently held Xu Le's fingers with a trembling hand, and said, "I promise you that I will not die, but you also have to promise me one thing." ” "I'll bring him back, don't worry."
Xu Le replied.
"No, I want you to promise me that you can't have anything to do with yourself."
In the early morning, in the suburbs of Kyoto, where the morning light had just woken up, Xu Le, who was carrying his luggage, walked silently in the fields with the bell fireworks that he picked up from the master's mansion.
"Brother, we're really going to Mohuaxing" "Hmm."
"I remember the day at my aunt's grave, you said you wouldn't go to that place until you could solve a certain problem."
"Yes, I miss the Federation a lot, but I can't go back, or even see the people in the Federation, because I can't find a solution to that problem."
"Found it now" "Maybe soon."

"But still not."
"Yes, but I found a reason to go to Inkflower Planet."
"What reason" "I like Paul, he is kind and cheerful, and of course he has an untimely belly of blood, and he is a very good young man of the Empire, just like those very good young men of the Federation."
"I like Aunt Susan, Aunt is a good person, and a good person should live a long life, just like those kind-hearted aunts in the Federation."
"There is no reason for such a person to die because of the war."
