Chapter 59 Who Are You



Only after getting on the carriage did Lu Zheng finally let go of his worries. Just now in the Qinzheng Palace, the invisible swords and sabers between Emperor Yongning and the King of Chu made him so nervous that he dared not breathe. But the King of Chu, the person involved, seemed to be fine and asked him if he wanted to go back home.

"Are you... okay?" Lu Zheng asked. Rong

Zhen asked back, "What's the matter?" He had long been accustomed to it. If not, he might not have lived to adulthood. Over the years, his heart had become so strong that it would not be disturbed by these things. But even so, he still felt a little warm because of Lu Zheng's concern.

The carriage suddenly became quiet. Lu Zheng was a little confused. He suddenly remembered Ge Hui's case and told him his experience and his own speculation.

Rong Zhen raised his eyebrows: "Two souls in one body?"

Lu Zheng could only explain: "This is not a bad omen. It's just that there is another personality in his body. It's just that Ge Hui's other personality is too aggressive. If it is treated well, it can be cured."

"What about you?" Rong Zhen suddenly asked, "Who are you?"

Lu Zheng's heart seemed to stop for a moment. He didn't think he was a movie star. After traveling through time, he also revealed a lot of flaws, but no one had exposed him, so he lived on deceiving himself. Now he was suddenly exposed by Rong Zhen. For a moment, he didn't know how to react.

"It seems that I am the first one to speak out about this matter." Rong Zhen said slowly.

Lu Zheng smiled bitterly: "What do you want to say?"

"I don't care who you are." Rong Zhen gently lifted his chin and slowly moved closer, "But you must tell the truth."

Lu Zheng hesitated: "I'm afraid you won't believe me."

Rong Zhen chuckled and sat back in his original position: "You speak first, I will judge."

This time, Lu Zheng was silent for a longer time, and Rong Zhen did not urge him. In the quiet carriage, only the "gurgling" sound of the carriage could be heard.

"I... come from another era." Lu Zheng spoke softly, "It's different there from here. We don't have an emperor, and everyone is equal... Of course, this is only on the surface. Classes will always exist. Some people are born rich, some are born poor, there are those who bully others, and there are those who are corrupt and break the law, but at least... no one will kill others and then not be punished because of their class. All lives are equal."

Rong Zhen's eyes slowly changed. Even though he had long known from Lu Chen that Lu Zheng came from a place they didn't know about, he was still shocked to hear Lu Zheng say it with his own ears.

As Lu Zheng spoke, the light in his eyes slowly dimmed. He never knew he missed that era so much. He missed his parents, friends, classmates, teachers, his computer, his online games that he had not yet completed, the steamed meat buns at the school gate, his endless homework and papers. Even though so much time had passed, the modern memories had not faded at all, just waiting for a breakthrough to burst out.

Lu Zheng's voice gradually stopped, Rong Zhen raised his head in surprise, but just in time to see a line of tears flowing from the boy's cold spring-like eyes, and he just stared blankly ahead.

Rong Zhen didn't say anything. He had seen such eyes before. It was at the end of a battle. He went to visit the wounded. A seriously wounded soldier looked into the distance with such eyes before he died. Later, someone told him that such eyes were homesickness.

A strange emotion surged in Rong Zhen's heart. His body embraced Lu Zheng faster than his brain. He whispered, "Don't be sad."

Lu Zheng's eyes were hazy and he could only smell the cool fragrance of pine trees. He didn't care about so much. His heart seemed to be immersed in the deep sea water. He was so sad that he seemed to be suffocated. After a long time, this emotion slowly sank.

Lu Zheng cried and felt a little depressed, but more embarrassed. He hadn't cried since he was five years old, let alone in front of a man.

Rong Zhen, on the other hand, showed no change of expression. His reaction comforted Lu Zheng very well, and Lu Zheng soon returned to normal.

Rong Zhen then said, "Although the war with the Jie people is unavoidable, we still have to uphold the righteous cause, so the case of Dai'er must be solved as soon as possible."

Lu Zheng concentrated and said, "I went over the case again, and I found a very strange problem. If the murderer wanted to frame someone, why would he frame Princess Dai'er?"

However, before Rong Zhen could answer, he continued, "We all had a preconceived idea that the other party was deliberately trying to provoke a war between us and the Jie people, but there are so many ways to provoke a war, so why sacrifice a princess?"

Rong Zhen frowned, "What do you mean?"

"I think blaming someone may be a reason, but the murderer did want to kill Dai'er." Lu Zheng paused, "I once told Jian Yu a story..."

"Jian Yu?"

"That's not the point!" Lu Zheng rubbed his cheeks, "The point is the story." He told the story of the elder sister killing the younger sister again.

Lu Zheng said in a deep voice: "I have always felt that the attitude of the Sixth Prince is a bit strange. Although he has been protesting against his sister's imprisonment, he has been protesting against our attitude towards Princess Dai'er. He doesn't care about the truth of this case at all, and he didn't even ask to see the evidence we have. If he is really a brother who loves his sister, isn't this behavior very strange?"

"Unless he already knew what the so-called evidence was, or, this was all directed by him." Rong Zhen said, but he was puzzled, "But isn't the prisoner a woman?"

"This is the key." Lu Zheng said, "Is this Sixth Prince really the Sixth Prince?"

Rong Zhen was stunned.

After all, Lu Zheng was a TV kid who had been bombarded by various TV dramas, so when he suddenly realized this, he quickly accepted it and even remembered many related details, which made him more certain of his guess.

Rong Zhen shook his head: "Although I have never seen this Sixth Prince in the Northern Frontier before, I have heard of his reputation for being both a scholar and a warrior. It may be easy to deceive one or two people, but how is it possible to deceive such a large Jie imperial court?"

"What if someone helps?" Lu Zheng asked.

Rong Zhen said calmly, "When Su Yiyun Ge and Su Yidaer were born, Su Yiwuya had already grown up and had great power in the imperial court. If he was willing to help, he could indeed deceive most people."

Lu Zheng nodded, "Even if Su Yiyun Ge really attached himself to Su Yiwuya, he didn't have to travel thousands of miles to a court that was against the Jie people. After all, if Wuya succeeded to the throne, his position would become extremely embarrassing and even dangerous. This is not a good choice for an ambitious prince or a prince who wants to live in peace."

Rong Zhen immediately knocked on the wall of the carriage, and the carriage quickly stopped. Someone asked outside the carriage, "What do you want, Your Highness?"

"Tell Nie Zhishu to go to the Libin Courtyard immediately to watch over Su Yiyunge and her group, and bring another horse over."

The man quickly took the order and left. Rong Zhen said to Lu Zheng, "I'll ask the coachman to take you directly back home."

Lu Zheng shook his head, "I'll get off the carriage. You have something important to do first."

Rong Zhen actually smiled slightly, "Don't worry, even if Su Yiyunge wants to escape, she won't waste this little time."

Lu Zheng was actually captured by this momentary smile. No wonder people say that the smile of the flower of Gaoling is the rarest. He was used to the serious His Royal Highness the King of Chu, and was simply unable to resist this smile.

His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu's carriage arrived at the gate of the Duke of England's Mansion smoothly, but Lu Zheng was stunned as soon as he got off the car: "Jian Yu, why are you here?"

Jian Yu's face was still a little pale, but he showed a relaxed expression when he saw Lu Zheng: "I came to find you, but I heard that you were taken away by His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu."

Lu Zheng walked towards the outer city with him. After all, Jian Yu just came to find him, and it would be inconvenient to go through a lot of etiquette if he went to the mansion.

The two walked side by side. Jian Yu turned his head and said, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

Lu Zheng touched his eyes and realized that he had cried and had not washed up. When he got off the car and was blown by the cold wind, his eyes were as red as a rabbit. He didn't know how to explain to Jian Yu, so he could only shake his head and said, "Don't worry, it's nothing."

Jian Yu didn't ask any more questions. The two walked silently and unexpectedly came to the restaurant where they had eaten pig's trotter noodles together.

Lu Zheng seemed to have remembered that part and was a little uncomfortable, but Jian Yu had already walked in.

"Two bowls of pig's trotter noodles."

"Hey! Why are you eating pig's trotter noodles on New Year's Day?" Lu Zheng was a little speechless.

Jian Yu turned his head and said, "I managed to escape death last night. Shouldn't we celebrate?"

This was a perfect logic, and Lu Zheng couldn't even refute it.

It just so happened that the box Jian Yu had stayed in before was empty, so the two of them were revisiting the old place. Thinking back to the time when they had a bowl of pork trotter noodles together, everything seemed like yesterday. Jian Yu

suddenly said, "I haven't slept so soundly for a long time since my mother passed away."

Lu Zheng seemed to know what he would say next, and hurriedly said, "Eat the noodles first! Otherwise, they will get mushy!"

"I'm not leaving without saying goodbye." Jian Yu continued stubbornly, and he took out the jade pendant from his arms, "I should have said it earlier. This jade pendant..."

"Don't say it!" Lu Zheng suddenly stood up and said loudly.

Jian Yu was stunned for a moment.

Lu Zheng was confused. He was not completely unaware of many things, but just pretended to be stupid out of habit. However, after Rong Zhen tore off his disguise, he could no longer turn a blind eye as before.

He looked at Jian Yu apologetically, and then ran away quickly.
