lifetime cage

"Wan'er, what are you talking about?" Li Zhongzhong looked at the face of the lovely person in front of him, who was still innocent and pretty, but what he said made him puzzled.

"Brother Ran..." Wan'er's eyes were red, as if she was about to cry, her voice was hoarse and choked.

"Wan'er, do you know that I'm married? What do you mean by that?" Li Zhongzhong sighed, looking at Wan'er in front of him, neither questioning nor blaming, still gentle but also a little helpless.

"Brother Ran, I have your child." The handsome man in the yellow shirt had tears on his face, and his tone was indescribably low.

"If Wan'er encounters difficulties, Big Brother Ran will help you. Don't worry, Big Brother Ran will never treat you badly...you..." Li Zhongzhong was a little speechless, afraid that what he said would hurt Yiqin in front of him Yiyou, who paused for a while, continued to say: "Sister-in-law Wang has saved my life. You and Can'er have always been my relatives. You don't have to do this. If you encounter difficulties, I will help you..."

"Wan'er didn't come here for money, Wan'er just wants this child...to be able to see his father in the future...to be able to recognize his ancestors and return to his clan, Wan'er is also sincere to Big Brother Ran, but Brother Ran, don't abandon Wan'er!" Li Zhongzhong was still thinking about why Wan'er would come out like this just now, when she spoke, Wan'er's face changed, and she suddenly threw herself into Li Zhongzhong's arms, crying like pear blossoms with rain, heartbroken.

"Wan'er! You know that I am..." The good-tempered person was also a little angry, and shouted: "You know that I am already married, but do you know that such behavior will trap me in injustice?!"

Although the words were detoured, the meaning behind them sounded different.Princess Jiu looked at the two people in front of her kissing each other, her face was extremely pale, a little sweat broke out on her fair forehead, she didn't know whether it was from anger or something.Last time, the person in front of me was injured, and I searched for it for nearly half a month without sleep, but there was still no news. If there is any inconvenience, it would be fine if I asked someone to come to the princess mansion to talk, but I let myself find it. After such a long time, all the doubts in my stomach disappeared when I saw him. What could be more important than him? It turned out that the person who was kind to me day and night never thought of coming back, or rather, That will be two people already. . .The nine princesses looked at the people in front of them, one was crying pear blossoms with rain, the other was busy shirking responsibility, and suddenly remembered the intimate actions of the two when they were in Wangjiacun.Thinking of what I asked in the courtyard today, I felt a burst of tearing pain in my heart, and my face turned pale again, and my body shook a little. Is this the case? . .

Mo'er beside her looked at the nine princesses in front of her. She didn't know what her own princess wanted to write, so she nervously stepped forward to support her, glanced at Li Zhongzhong in the distance, and said with concern: "Princess, are you okay?"

"Princess?!" Li Zhongzhong turned his head, "How much did he hear?!" Li Zhongzhong stood there thinking secretly, but felt an inexplicable sense of guilt in his heart.

Ninth Princess stood still and didn't speak. Looking at the person in the distance who didn't even dare to turn around to face her, she felt a pain in her heart. Thinking of that person's sweet talk and intimacy day and night, she suddenly felt her stomach churning.It turns out that betrayal is so heartbreaking when facing the one you love.Forcing myself to stop the abnormal twitching of the heart didn't help, it could only let the pain continue to spread, tears appeared in the eyes, and I took out a handkerchief to cover myself and quietly wiped it away.

"My son-in-law." The voice remained the same, but hoarse and piercing: "Wan'er came here after a long journey, why don't you give her an explanation? Could it be that you just blindly shirk responsibility?" Is it Ben Gong who misjudged you or you. . .This is the nature. . .The last sentence was not uttered, and in the end, I still couldn't bear to hurt.

Perhaps the pleasant but cold voice paused for a while.

"Besides, you also owe me an explanation."

"Princess, you misunderstood, Wan'er and I are not what you think..." The misunderstood person hurriedly explained, gesticulating weakly in the air with both hands: "This child is definitely not mine!" But People who misunderstand but turn a blind eye, maybe people from ancient times to the present are the same, the more they love, the more cautious they are, and there is no room for a grain of sand in their eyes. The person standing in front of him at this moment makes people feel extremely heartbroken, and the pain in his heart pervades Looking at the whole body, but helpless, how can I listen to any explanation.

The nine princesses looked at the people who were busy pushing back in front of them, and their heart ached even more. Their hearts were full of despair. They pressed their hands tightly, and the ten fingers of their straight hands turned white and did not let go. It turned out that this was the explanation for the vastly different behaviors these days. It turned out that he said The betrayal is. . .It turned out that everything was just a temptation. . .

"My son-in-law! You are already a husband and a father, and you should cherish any woman who is so infatuated with you. I have heard and seen it with my own eyes today, but you still want to shirk responsibility? There are three major unfilial things, and there are no descendants. You know that you and I have not had sex, tomorrow I will tell my father..."

"No, it's not...this is not my child...me and her..." Li Zhongzhong was busy explaining but he couldn't choose what to say. He raised his flustered eyes and saw an unusual person.

"Brother Ran, I beg you..." Wan'er knelt on the ground with a plop, tugging at Li Zhongzhong's skirt, heartbroken.

Li Zhongzhong only felt the surging waves in his chest, and was speechless for a while. He looked down at the person kneeling on the ground, startled, and then looked up. Full of disgust.

It turned out that such a hurtful look made Li Zhong feel a sharp pain in the center, and subconsciously covered his chest. Maybe no amount of explanation would be futile. Maybe she never believed in herself, maybe she didn't like herself at all, From beginning to end, he never said that he likes himself, right? Isn't this appearance his original goal?Very good, very good, isn't it?Ning Qi, Ning Qi still gave her a way out by treating her like this, and sent her to the south to be exiled.But what about myself?She didn't even give a chance to explain, perhaps, she was just being self-indulgent from beginning to end.

Li Zhongzhong didn't know what the nine princesses were talking about for a long time, and stood there in a daze, only feeling the pain all over his body, slowly spreading to the apex of his heart, it was so painful.Suddenly, I heard two words uttered from the cold lips: "He Li."

Suppressing the pain in his heart, he whispered with suspicion and fear, "What did you say?"

"...He Li..." Li Zhongzhong didn't hear the whole sentence of the nine princesses, but clearly heard the words uttered from the beautiful lip line.

Hearing the words, Li Zhongzhong felt like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and unconsciously took a few steps back. His eyes were hot, and tears had already overflowed her eyes. The two words were enough to make her feel heartbroken.

Seeing that Li Zhongzhong was hurt by her own words, the nine princesses were heartbroken, but at this point, she already knew that he didn't love herself. The princess's nobility and pride allowed her to be humble like dust.

Li Zhongzhong looked at his lover in front of him, his heart ached so much that he couldn't breathe, his chest seemed to be pressed against his chest, and tears overflowed his face. He couldn't imagine what would happen without her in his future life. He cherished and cared for her in every way in his heart. She, always I put it on the tip of my heart, loved and cherished it all the time, but now I want to lose it?Gritting her teeth, her heart froze, all her life's courage was taken out, and she suddenly shouted: "This child is not mine! It can't be mine! Because..."

"Slap!" Wan'er suddenly stood up from the ground, and slapped Li Zhongzhong hard, her voice was clear and loud, and five finger prints were clearly printed on her fair face.

This slap woke up Li Zhongzhong, but his heart ached even more unstoppably, with bursts of colic in his chest, as if he was about to die in the next second.

Maybe this is the best ending, no matter what Wan'er's purpose is, maybe this is the best ending, isn't this exactly the ending I wanted at first?Maybe she is self-inflicted, maybe she has never tried to believe in herself, yes, without love, how can she believe it.

"Okay." The tears were dry, and tears were flowing in my heart. I exhausted my whole life's strength for one word, and the suffocation forced from the chest to the throat, and the slightest smell of blood in the mouth was swallowed hard.

The author has something to say: Sorry for not updating in the past two days, I hope you can read ##. . .

☆, successive bad news

Bad news one after another:

Li Zhongzhong was so sad that he couldn't help it, he just felt that his heart was being tortured back and forth on the knife mountain oil pan. Ever since she fell in love with the nine princesses, she never thought that the ending would be so helpless, and she couldn't hear a word of her own explanation. Going in, she couldn't feel her own love at all, her heart was as cold as falling into an ice cellar.In fact, isn’t that what I was expecting the first time? Looking at the back of the nine princesses who have gone away, the pain in my heart is unbearable. The tears have already dried up, but the blood is dripping from the heart, spreading from the apex of the heart to the entire heart. .

Li Zhongzhong stood there blankly for a long time, but the pain in his heart was still not relieved.

"Master! Master!" Fucai ran over panting from a distance, looked at Li Zhongzhong who was in front of him and gave a careless salute, then gasped out of breath and said: "Master, old lady, she ...she's... seriously ill..."

Li Zhong sank down in his heart, as if he had fallen into an infinite abyss, which made his scarred heart even more worried, "What!" The pain in his heart was pressed hard to the bottom of his heart, replaced by That indescribable worry.

"What's going on?" Li Zhongzhong's face was pale at the moment, there was not a trace of blood on his fair face, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.The old lady and her father are the people who love me the most in this world. They have been pampered infinitely since they were young, and their every move reveals their concern and love for them. It is precisely because they have the soul of the 21st century, so since childhood, A hug, a kiss, and a look were all clearly seen by me and imprinted in my heart. Now that the old lady is seriously ill, how could I not worry about it.

Seeing that his master's face was not good, Fucai replied cautiously while walking back in a hurry: "Yesterday, the old lady had a fever and vomited. The little one wanted to invite the young master back, but the prime minister said that the young master is busy. So I asked the younger one to ask Dr. Chen to take a look. After reading it, Dr. Chen only said that the old lady needs to rest for a few days, and prescribed some medicine for the old lady to drink. After drinking it, she really felt better. The old lady was in good spirits this morning. After breakfast, I went to the Buddhist hall to chant Buddhist sutras as usual, but the old lady's face changed just after entering the Buddhist hall, and the maids beside her fainted before they could react."

Li Zhongzhong and Fucai had just entered the mansion, and went to the old matriarch's wing without even taking a sip of tea.As soon as he entered, he saw that the old matriarch was surrounded by people inside and out, and his eyes swept around. His father had not returned, and he was probably discussing political affairs in the court.

Seeing that it was Li Zhongzhong who had returned, everyone saluted respectfully and shouted: "Master." Then they made way for Li Zhongzhong.

Li Zhongzhong strode to the bed, looked at the sleeping old lady, his nose couldn't help being sore, and he blamed himself for how long he hadn't observed his grandma carefully. Before he got married, he enjoyed grandma blindly. Even though he didn't say anything about the love he gave, he always thought that grandma would always be by his side in his heart.After getting married, she shifted all the focus of her life to the Princess Mansion, even if she was free time, she didn't go back to see her grandma.Looking at the white hair on the old lady's temples, the soreness in her heart was even stronger, her eyes were red but she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.

He turned his head, took a few steps outside, and asked in a low voice, "Has the doctor been here?"

"Master, I've been here." Uncle Wen replied standing aside respectfully.

"What did you say? Is grandma's illness serious?" Li Zhongzhong looked at Uncle Wen at the side, and suddenly felt that these closest relatives from childhood to adulthood were indeed neglected these days.

"After Dr. Chen left, the younger one ordered his servants to send a message to the Prime Minister and the empress. Since it was inconvenient for the empress to go out of the palace, she asked the Imperial Physician Wu in the palace to come and have a look. Wu Imperial Physician said that the old lady was suffering from heart disease. , it’s really chest pain, it needs rest, and a prescription has been prescribed. I’ve ordered the kitchen to cook it, and I’ll wait for the old lady to wake up.”

Li Zhongzhong's heart sank when he heard this, chest pain?Isn't it the modern heart disease? !

"Grandma has been in good health for the past few days. Why did this disease come on so quickly? Did Doctor Wu tell you what to pay attention to?" Li Zhongzhong frowned, expressing concern.

"I don't know. Doctor Wu said that it might be caused by eating too meaty food, but the old lady always likes to eat light food. This matter really makes me puzzled."

Li Zhongzhong frowned and pressed down again. Just as he was about to say something, he heard some commotion in the room. After listening carefully, it turned out that the old lady had woken up, and immediately ordered: "Send the medicine to the old lady." In your room." After speaking, he strode back into the room.

"Is grandma feeling better?" Li Zhongzhong asked with concern while holding the old matriarch's hand.

"It's better, it's better, it's worrying Zhong'er." The old lady coughed twice, her head seemed to be hurting, and she put her hand on her forehead gently, but her face was better at the moment. Seeing this, Li Zhongzhong hurriedly stretched out his hand Take the pillow and give it to the old lady.

"Grandma, the medicine is ready, drink it while it's hot." Li Zhongzhong kept stirring the spoon.

The old matriarch leaned on the pillow, moved her body back, and ordered: "You all go down, it will be good if there is a young master..."

"Yes" everyone bowed and retreated.

"Zhong'er, do you know why I let you stay alone?" The old lady Jun Rang looked serious on the bed.

"Grandma, Zhong'er doesn't know." At this moment, Li Zhong seemed to sense something in his heart.

"Ahem, you have suffered a lot from being a daughter but disguised as a man since you were young. Your father doesn't want to marry again. You are the only one left in my Li family. Now I have to tell you You." The old matriarch's eyes were full of worry, but he did not conceal the love in his heart, and reached out to touch Li Zhongzhong's hair: "You are curious, but why did your father agree to the emperor's marriage that day? To refuse marriage?"

Li Zhongzhong looked at his grandmother who loved him since he was a child, and struggled in his heart. He had been mischievous since he was a child, and he was afraid that once he grew up, he would face problems that he didn't want to face, and what he was afraid of was the intrigue in the palace. What I am afraid of is the bloody wind of politics. Now I have to avoid it again and again, but after all, do I have to face it?

"Grandma..." Looking at his loving grandma in front of him, Li Zhong felt a bit of bitterness in his heart.

"I know that Zhong'er has been smart since he was a child, even more than ordinary people. His mischievous behavior is not out of nature, I'm afraid it's just a deception. No matter how you get into trouble these years, you have to be careful. Grandma knows, if it wasn't for your mother back then... .” Speaking of this, the old lady’s eyes were red, and her voice was a little choked up. "Forget it, I won't mention it... I have really suffered for you these years." Then there was another sigh.

"Grandma..." Li Zhongzhong also had red eyes, recalling the moment he was born, his mother lying on the bed was dying, but he still stretched out his hand to see himself in the arms of others. When he learned to love, he wanted to When I wanted to love, the person who gave me my life left. Thinking of this, tears fell down my face unconsciously. "Grandma, Zhong'er is not bitter. With the love of grandma and the teaching of his father these years, Zhong'er understands, and Zhong'er never feels bitter... Zhong'er is very happy to have the identity of a man and be free. This is very good." , Zhonger is really happy..."

"Okay, okay..." The old lady nodded her head in relief, but her eyes were still full of tears. "Then did you ever resent your father for not preventing the emperor from granting the marriage?"

Li Zhongzhong was really puzzled about this matter. With his father's meritorious service and his aunt's closeness to the emperor, even if he resisted the decree, he would not be able to confiscate his family and exterminate his family. "Zhong'er doesn't complain, but Zhong'er really doesn't understand that father doesn't stop marrying the Ninth Princess to me?"

The old lady who was lying on the bed suddenly had sharp eyes, and a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes: "That's because..."

. . . . . .

Li Zhongzhong was holding the empty medicine bowl from the old matriarch's hand in a daze, and suddenly he felt a headache. As soon as he came out of the room, he saw the servant who usually followed his father to court and hurried back.

"Why are you so panicked? Why didn't you go back to the mansion with your father?" Li Zhongzhong frowned a little sullenly. He usually had a good temper and rarely scolded his servants. There were already many things today. Grandma's body made him I was extremely worried, and now I saw the servants running over in a hurry, and I couldn't help feeling a little angry.

"Master, after the morning court, the empress asked Xiao Dezi from Meili Palace to give the servant a kit, and asked the servant to go to the princess mansion to hand it to the young master. The servant went to the princess mansion but did not find the young master, so she returned. house." The young man took out the kit from his sleeve.

"Young master. This is what the empress ordered the servant to give it to you."

Li Zhongzhong took the kit from the servant and opened it, but saw that there was only a note in the kit. He opened it, looked at it for a moment, his heart sank to the bottom with a thud, his face changed again and again, and he remained silent.

The little servant looked at his young master's face anxiously, and it took a long time to see his young master utter a sentence: "Prepare the sedan chair, go to the princess mansion..."
