"oh?"
He dared to bring his wife's childhood sweetheart, a close friend of the opposite sex with whom he had a very good relationship, with him.
"The Regent has a big heart."
No need to worry about being poached.
Chu Dichi followed suit and spread his palms, leaning back in his chair, "I still have this confidence."
Although I had a headache because of Qin Muyu's matter...
I've had headaches many times...
But it's all over.
King Yin laughed in a deep voice, "I heard that the Great Chu was overthrown, and you were stripped of your title and fled?"
Chu Dichi narrowed his eyes, "I heard that you escaped death and luckily saved your life, but also lost some memories?"
King Yin turned the blood-red ring on his thumb, his smile not reaching his eyes:
"They are all insignificant memories, not worth mentioning."
It is enough to remember who you are and remember your hatred.
"The regent is more pitiful. I heard that he was stabbed by his beloved and now he has nothing."
Chu Dichi pulled his lips together and smiled.
He did it voluntarily.
No one could hurt him unless he wanted to.
"It's just a minor injury. I heard that King Yin can't even go back to the capital now. If he reveals his position, he will be hunted down and lose all his money and power."
King Yin said calmly: "Not all of them are lost. I have an Iron Blood Guard in my hands, which is invincible."
Chu Di smiled faintly:
"What a coincidence! I have a group of black-armored guards here, and they are also invincible."
The two men looked at each other, their slightly narrowed dark eyes were like eagles lurking in the middle of the night, sharp and narrow, enough to see through everything in an instant.
The two of them exuded a similar aura.
A lot of words are left unsaid in just one glance.
"cooperate?"
"All right."
"Don't force it."
"It's not too forced."
-
Imperial capital.
Fengyi Palace.
On the couch, Chu Li slept restlessly, his eyelids twitching constantly, and his dry lips kept mumbling something:
“No…don’t…”
"Xiaojiu!"
On the ten-mile red carpet, she saw a man in a black robe running towards her, his heart and eyes filled with her.
He opened his arms, his eyes full of warmth and smile, as if the bright moon was in his arms.
But she saw herself holding the broken sword and stabbing it into his abdomen.
Phew!
"Stop!"
That's not her!
no!
The scene changed, and on a long street covered in rain, the boy grabbed her shoulders, his eyes red:
"Why! You killed Aunt Zhu. How could I have wronged you that you would treat me like this?"
"Why! "
"Chu Li!"
"No...it's not me...no!" Chu Li suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
"Tanuki-chan!"
In front of the couch, Concubine Wen immediately held her hand, took out a handkerchief, and wiped the sweat from her head.
Chu Li was breathing heavily, his eyes filled with fear that had not yet dissipated.
When I woke up from a nightmare, it was like a taut bowstring that suddenly relaxed, as if all my strength was drained away and I collapsed.
"Li'er! Li'er, what's wrong with you? Don't scare your mother!"
Others were awakened from nightmares and it was just a false alarm.
But she...
Everything in the dream is real.
As soon as she closed her eyes, these images were like a flood and a beast, trapping her deeply in a nightmare, as if she were a sinner who had gone to hell and was being punished and tortured every day.
Her back was wet with sweat.
Concubine Wen was so worried that tears fell. "Li'er, you have to be strong. If anything happens to you, your mother will have no hope in this life."
She can't be strong.
Chu Li looked at the white curtains above her head, thinking of the past, tears silently welled up in her eyes:
"Mother, I have made many mistakes."
Did a lot of things that I shouldn't have done.
She felt sorry for Chu Dichi, both when they were young and now.
She will never be able to get over this hurdle in her heart. It will become a demon in her heart that will trap her for the rest of her life.
"That was not your intention," Concubine Wen choked and advised, "Li'er, you need to be more open-minded. The fact that there is no news about the Regent is the best news."
"He must still be alive."
Alive or dead, what does it matter?
Chu Li is now as numb as a corpse. Even if Chu Dichi is still alive, she has no face to see him again.
She tilted her head to the side, her tears silently wetting the pillow.
"Tanari, stop sleeping and get up and eat something."
Chu Li turned sideways, facing the inside of the bed, and said in an uncontrollable voice, "I'm not hungry."
Concubine Wen leaned forward and looked at her pale little face, which was devoid of any color. Her heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.
"You've been in a coma for three days and three nights. Your body is already weak. If you don't take good care of yourself, you might develop a chronic illness in the future!"
future?
She has no future.
Every day, with the sun rising and the moon setting, every moment, she felt extremely tormented. She had no expectations at all. The road ahead seemed grey and there was no sign of life at all.
"Mother, I'm really not hungry."
"Tanuki-chan!"
The child is hurt, and the mother is heartbroken.
Concubine Wen wanted to bear everything for her, "Be strong, there are so many people who care about you, the Eighth Prince, Concubine Xin, General Xie... everyone will be with you."
Chu Li shed tears silently:
"Tell them to stay away from me."
Hoarseness:
"Chu Yeli has gone crazy. Anyone who gets close to me will be in misfortune..."
"Come on, cheer up!"
Concubine Wen held her shoulders, but her body was so limp that she let him push and move.
Push it, move it, and it's like a lifeless cotton doll.
Concubine Wen burst into tears:
"What should my mother do if you do this? You are still young, are you going to let my mother die before her? How can you bear to do this to me!"
Chu Li opened his mouth, but his voice was hoarse and he didn't utter a single word.
"Don't you want to avenge the Regent?"
"I……"
"For his sake, you have to be strong. Otherwise, all his efforts will be in vain. If he were here, he would definitely not want to see you like this!"
Thinking of Chu Dichi...
There was a little light in Chu Li's eyes, but there was more guilt and self-blame.
yes.
revenge.
Even if she dies, she must take Chu Yeli with her!
He wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, propped himself up on the bed, and weakly raised his body, "Mother, I want to eat something..."
"well!"
With Concubine Wen's company, Chu Li's condition improved a little.
However, Chu Yeli did not allow Concubine Wen to stay overnight.
During the day, Concubine Wen was brought into the palace by the guards and sent to Chu Li. Before sunset, she was sent out again.
At night, Chu Yeli came over.
night.
Chu Li sat on the bed, listening calmly to the approaching footsteps. He stopped outside the door and did not move or leave.
The dim candlelight cast a dark figure on the door, silent and quiet.
Behind the door, the air was silent.
I don’t know how much time passed.
Squeak——
When he opened the door, he saw the face he had been thinking about, but the look in her eyes was extremely distant, which made Chu Yeli's eyes darken slightly, and a myriad of complicated emotions filled his heart.
"Xiaojiu."
Her face was so pale, she no longer had the spirit she once had.
He came over and wanted to touch her face distressedly, "Didn't you take your medicine well today?"
Chu Li turned his head away.
The man's fingertips were suspended in mid-air, slightly stiff.
