Thirty-four years old!

Lu Hen Ge became the deputy general!

With the emperor's reward, he was promoted and given the title of Zuohu Hou.

Logically speaking.

Lu Hen Ge was only a deputy general, and even after winning a battle, he was not qualified to be granted a title of nobility. However, after learning that Lu Hen Ge was once the top scholar, perhaps out of guilt, he made an exception and granted him a title of nobility.

Lu Hen Ge's glory is boundless.

as if.

He returned to the state he was in before he was fifteen.

He just changed from a literary genius praised by everyone to a general respected by everyone.

The second year.

Lu Hen Ge got married.

Going around in circles!

He still married the daughter of the Minister of Rites. The daughter's original wife died in a few years of war, so she naturally set her sights on Lu Henge.

Their married life was not happy because the rich girl did not like Lu Henge and only agreed to the marriage out of the interests of the marriage alliance.

The next five years.

Lu Hen Ge has two children.

Perhaps because of her love for the child, his wife finally treated Lu Hen Ge a little better.

originally.

Lu Hen Ge also wanted to take a few concubines.

But his wife firmly disagreed. Considering that his father-in-law had great power in the court, Lu Hen Ge did not dare to provoke him easily and had to agree.

Time goes by day by day.

Lu Hen Ge thought that this was the end of his life.

But suddenly one day.

There were rumors in the palace that the eldest prince was plotting a rebellion, and the Minister of Rites was the eldest prince's most loyal supporter, and he was even the one who was behind the rebellion.

A moment.

Lu Hen Ge was dumbfounded.

His peaceful life was broken.

The whole family was imprisoned.

Deprivation of title.

In prison.

Lu Hen Ge tried to clear himself of suspicion, but the man sitting on the throne was old, and old people tend to be more suspicious. No matter how Lu Hen Ge explained, he chose to ignore him.

It was in prison that Lu Hen Ge accidentally learned that his two children were not his own, but the illegitimate offspring of his wife and the eldest prince.

In anger.

Lu Hen Ge vomited blood and fell into a coma.

When he woke up again, it was the day when the eunuch came to announce the decree.

Not unexpected.

Treason was a serious crime, and coupled with the old emperor's suspicion, the entire family was executed in the autumn.

The jailer had a decent relationship with Lu Hen Ge. He would occasionally secretly send Lu Hen Ge some delicious food, and even clothes and a dressing mirror.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Lu Hen Ge was suddenly stunned.

He is old.

His face was full of wrinkles and his hair was white.

Can't help it.

He recalled the scene when he was fifteen years old and the top scorer in high school. He wore a purple gold crown on his head, a red robe on his body, and cloud-climbing boots on his feet. There were admiring eyes on both sides of the street when he walked through.

At the age of fifteen, I was full of energy and ambition, and my name was on the list of successful candidates.

At the age of 45, I was imprisoned and my life was in danger.

Lu Hen Ge panicked.

He always felt that he had forgotten a lot of things, but he just couldn't remember them.

He grabbed his hair desperately, pulling out all the white hairs one by one. The still hot blood dripped from his scalp, staining his face into a half-human, half-ghost look.

What exactly did you forget?

I can’t remember…

but.

Lu Hen Ge gave up.

He leaned against the prison wall and looked at the outside world through a palm-sized window every day. It was sunny outside, but unfortunately the sunlight could not shine in through the palm-sized window.

He began to forget things.

even.

He almost forgot his own name.

Two months later, the weather gradually turned cooler and autumn was coming.

Lu Hen Ge knew that he was about to die.

My head will fall like a fallen leaf, gently and silently into the soil.

But fate played another joke on him.

The old emperor is dead.

It may be that the eldest prince's rebellion made the old emperor disheartened and his health deteriorated day by day. He died after only two months.

The new emperor was the third prince, who was only eighteen years old.

clever.

Brave.

Very ambitious.

The first thing the new emperor did upon taking office was to grant amnesty to the entire nation. This meant that Lu Hen Ge would not have to die again...

Lu Hen Ge was even more at a loss. All his efforts and energy were almost exhausted. Although he was only in his forties, his physical condition was the same as that of a man in his seventies or eighties.

What can I do even if I get out alive?

Even if there was a general amnesty, it would be impossible to restore his title. The moment Lu Hen Ge walked out of the prison gate, he was no longer a private school teacher, nor was he Zuo Hu Hou, but a commoner.

Where can he go?

It seems like nowhere is his home.

What's even more ironic is that the third prince, who became emperor, pardoned the eldest prince's death sentence in order to show his benevolence. He even made him a prince and sent him to the frontier.

On the day the eldest prince left the capital, Lu Hen Ge also went.

Among the huge crowd of travelers, he saw his wife, holding the hands of their two children, sitting in the carriage with a smile on her face.

Until the city gates closed, Lu Hen Ge was still standing there in a daze.

He doesn't understand.

The one who plotted rebellion was the eldest prince.

The person who made the suggestion was the Minister of Rites.

But why...is he the one who is left with nothing in the end?

What did he do wrong?

Lu Hen Ge was very confused.

This feeling of bewilderment overwhelmed his anger and unwillingness, causing his overall mental state to decline significantly.

“It shouldn’t be like this…”

“It shouldn’t be like this…”

Lu Hen Ge murmured to himself.
