Chapter 36 I didn't expect that I was going for revenge, but ended up getting myself involved
System: [Yes, he is still my cousin, but he is a different person.]
Qin Yue immediately started thinking, [Could they be brothers? If they were not discovered by Li Zhaoyi, then they must look very similar. Then there is only one truth, are they twins?]
After hearing Qin Yue's answer, the system praised him in an exaggerated way: [Wow! Host, you are really smart. You guessed it right away.]
Mrs. Lu was also very happy that her daughter was praised. She couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth. Cui Xi, who
was standing next to her, saw that her eldest lady wanted to laugh but was trying not to laugh, and couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hand and giggled.
Qin Yue was praised by the system again, and she was still a little proud.
[Right, sister, I am still very smart, hahaha.]
[So the cousin who entered the palace is actually the first cousin's biological brother. He used the same appearance to deceive Li Zhaoyi, but what was the reason? Does the second cousin also like Li Zhaoyi?]
System: [Things are more complicated than this.]
Qin Yue: [How complicated is it? Sister, tell me more.]
Lu couldn't help but lean towards Qin Yue, and Cui Xi also turned her ear towards Qin Yue.
So how complicated is it, oh, I'm so anxious, tell me quickly!
System: [These two cousins are indeed twins. Their biological parents are the Liu family, which has been engaged in business for generations and has a considerable family background.]
[However, their family believes that twins are unlucky, so after the two were born, one of the babies was abandoned on the roadside. This baby was the cousin who appeared later.]
[This cousin was also lucky. He was seen by a woman named Wu who happened to pass by. The woman was working in a brothel in the capital. Seeing that he was pitiful, she took him in.]
[Later, cousin Wu followed the brothel woman and grew up in the brothel in the capital. When he was older, he also began to receive customers, regardless of gender. 】
Qin Yue suddenly realized: [No wonder Cousin Wu did not even let go of the palace maids and eunuchs after entering the palace. It turns out that he grew up in such a complicated environment in a brothel. 】
[It may also be that no one taught him well. But for him, he was lucky to be alive after being abandoned. 】
The system continued: [So when Cousin Liu just arrived in the capital, he happened to be seen by Cousin Wu who was doing business at the city gate. 】
Qin Yue continued: [Cousin Wu must be shocked that there is someone in the world who looks exactly like him, so Cousin Wu guessed that the two are related by blood at that time, right? 】
The system affirmed: 【Yes, at that time, cousin Wu thought that the two were relatives, but he did not act rashly after hanging out in brothels for many years, so he secretly began to investigate. 】
【The result of the investigation was naturally not what he expected, but the truth revealed was that he was the one who was abandoned. 】
Qin Yue: 【He must have been very sad, even hateful, so did he do that in the end for revenge? 】
System: 【Yes, after he found out the truth, and then looked at the situation he was living in, how could he not hate it. 】
【In order to have enough food, he started working in brothels at a very young age. At first, he only did some cleaning work, and later he received customers. 】
【But his biological brother lived a life without worries about food and clothing, was able to study, and even participated in the imperial examination. 】
【The lives of the two are so different! 】
Lu and Cui Xi were silent.
One is an abandoned child, constantly sacrificing herself for a living all day long.
The other is raised in the palm of her hand, without worrying about her livelihood, and can still study and have time to talk about love.
The contrast is really too strong!
Alas, I can only say that fate plays tricks on people.
System: 【So after Cousin Wu knew that Cousin Liu and Li Zhaoyi had an affair, he planned to deceive Li Zhaoyi and let her have an affair with him, and then expose it in front of Cousin Liu. 】
【He believed that watching the woman he loved betray him would definitely hit Cousin Liu hard. 】
【Then Cousin Wu began to frequently climb over the wall to meet Li Zhaoyi in private, of course, pretending to be Cousin Liu. 】
Qin Yue: 【But Cousin Wu certainly didn't expect that Cousin Liu had already made up his mind to give up this relationship because Li Zhaoyi was going to enter the palace. 】
【Then why did Cousin Wu follow Li Zhaoyi into the palace? 】
System: 【In the process of getting to know Li Zhaoyi, Cousin Wu gradually fell in love with Li Zhaoyi. 】
【He had lacked love since childhood, and he felt true love from Li Zhaoyi, even though he was pretending to be Cousin Liu. 】
【So when Li Zhaoyi was about to enter the palace, he proposed to sneak into the palace by pretending to be a personal maid, hoping to stay with Li Zhaoyi forever. 】
Qin Yue felt a little emotional, and didn't know if Cousin Wu had expected that the two of them would end up with their bodies thrown into a mass grave because they couldn't control their selfish desires.
【I didn't expect that he was going for revenge, but ended up getting himself involved, and in the end the two of them died in the same grave. 】
System: 【Oh, yes. After entering the palace, Cousin Wu gradually began to worry that Li Zhaoyi would fall in love with the emperor. 】
【So the two people who were originally just friends, under the deliberate guidance of Cousin Wu, had a relationship. 】
【Cousin Wu grew up in a brothel and knew how to use his body to please others. He also wanted to keep Li Zhaoyi's heart in this way. 】
【Gradually, Li Zhaoyi fell in love with Cousin Wu, who took her to experience different feelings every day, and gradually let go and became more unscrupulous. 】
【Cousin Wu was worried that the matter would be exposed and it would be disadvantageous to both of them, so he used the same method to sleep with all the palace maids and eunuchs in Li Zhaoyi's palace. 】 【
Later, Li Zhaoyi suddenly became pregnant, and the two wanted to use Emperor Jin Yuan to get away with it, but they didn't expect that they would fail in the end. 】
Qin Yue: 【If at the beginning, Cousin Wu just entered the palace with the simple intention of accompanying Li Zhaoyi. 】
【If I had been able to act firmly, without so many desires and worries, and had put myself in the right position, maybe I wouldn't have come to this point today. 】
Lu sighed slightly in her heart. Yes, I knew it was a desire that I couldn't control, so I shouldn't have touched it from the beginning.
If I hadn't taken that path, maybe the result would have been different.
It's just that emotional matters are difficult to control.
The system continued: [After leaving the court, Minister Li went to Cousin Liu's residence. Cousin Liu had to take part in the imperial examination, so he was naturally still in the capital.]
[But when Minister Li saw that Cousin Liu was still outside the palace, he was very surprised. Since Cousin Liu was outside the palace, who was the cousin in the palace?]
[Minister Li told Cousin Liu what happened in the palace, and wanted Cousin Liu to help analyze it. After all, Li Zhaoyi only had this one cousin.]
[After hearing this, Cousin Liu was shocked. He didn't expect that the cousin he once loved would do such a thing. 】
【When he heard Li Shilang talking about the cousin in the palace, he suddenly remembered that he had heard from his wet nurse that he had a brother, but twins were considered unlucky by the clan, so they were abandoned. 】 【
He guessed that the cousin in the palace should be his brother with the same father and mother. He naturally told Li Shilang this guess. 】
【After Li Shilang learned about this, he hurried to the palace to report. 】
Qin Yue: 【What will happen to the Li family in the end? 】
