Chapter 21: Twins!
Even if the brothers are similar, they can't be like this to such an extent.
Gan Qiongying stood on the edge of the bed, looking at Lihua hiding in the quilt, her brain was crackling, and she had a very ridiculous but reasonable guess, that is, Lihua is not only the brother of the male protagonist in the plot.
He is the same actor Zhongli Zhengzhen, I am afraid that they are twins......
Twins!
Hiss.
Gan Qiongying gasped silently, as if she had instantly revealed the mystery that had been difficult to solve in her mind, that is, the part of the plot that was not described in detail at all.
Why is Lihua, as the hero's own brother, but living incognito among the people.
Why is it the brother of the dignified prince of Jinchuan, who has now been found, but has never been recognized by the royal family of Jinchuan.
The more Gan Qiongying thought about it, the more cold her teeth felt.
Because they are twins, and all the TV series and novels she has read, and even history, are clearly telling her that modern people are happy to have twins, but the ancients regarded twins as ominous.
Especially the royal family, imagine that the imperial power is inviolable, if there is one person as the emperor, how can he tolerate others who are exactly the same as themselves?
Even if the emperor can tolerate it, who can guarantee that the courtiers will not harbor wolf ambitions, and will not vainly try to support the other person of the twins, and vainly try to replace him?
Therefore, the twins are destined to die one.
Gan Qiongying thought of Lihua's slightly limping left leg.
The most open
A person with a disability shall not be an emperor...... Lihua was apparently given up and should have died quietly at birth.
Gan Qiongying didn't know how he survived, but she thought of him, as a businessman, but he became the concubine of Princess Duanrong who was outside, and then thought of the plot, Zhongli Zhengzhen finally took Nanzhao Jiangshan...... Then Lihua is afraid that it is a move that Zhongli is really buried in the royal family.
The prince who was abandoned at birth, with a disability, will be used by Zhongli Zhengzhen to death again?
What he wants to use is not only the identity of the colt, but also the inexhaustible money he has in the world.
Thinking back to the plot a little, you know how successful this move is, and the dignity in the plot is not available because of the request, in order to win Zhongli's true love, he does everything.
I don't know how much convenience has been done for Zhongli Zhengzhen.
And the identity of the concubine seems to be useless, and he will only be humiliated and scolded by Princess Duanrong, but the name of Nanzhao Concubine's horse may be a laughing stock in the imperial city of Yindu, and it is not very useful, but when he goes out of the imperial city to act in business and collude with local officials, as long as he brings the name of the emperor's relatives and relatives, he is naturally invincible.
Gan Qiongying frowned when she thought of this, she was not good at strategy, and it was difficult to have a sense of reality since she crossed January.
She just wants to save her life, and she wants to live well in this world. She cherishes her hard-won life very much.
But she broke the true face of the colt today, and only after a little thought, she already realized the outright malice.
Now that she is dignified, she can't help but start to hate the thief who steals the country.
There are no eggs under the nest, if Nanzhao really destroys the country, she, the princess of the dead country, will end up being dragged to death by horses, and I am afraid that there will be no love and hatred.
Gan Qiongying thought of this, and all the warm colors on her face had already dispersed.
She didn't know that at this moment, she was no different from the real princess, with the same eyebrows and gloomy eyes, and the same indifferent expression.
She looked at the pony who didn't dare to reveal his true appearance, hiding in the quilt and shivering.
This time, she really had the urge to step forward, tear his quilt off, and then expose his conspiracy with Zhongli Zhengzhen.
It's just that Gan Qiongying is not really a princess after all, because she can withdraw from the plot of this world and look at this matter from a god's perspective, so her calm speed is amazing.
She thought of the ending of Lihua being humiliated to death in the plot, thinking that he was disabled because of his disability, even if he was his husband between the twins, but he was ruthlessly abandoned by his biological parents, and after finding it, he used it to the extreme, was he voluntary?
Is he trembling at the moment, is he afraid that his true colors will be exposed and ruin their plan to steal the country, or is he afraid of something else?
A prince who should have been precious and honorable was abandoned by his biological parents, had to wear a mask, and kept his name incognito, and married a princess of an enemy country who not only did not love him, but even humiliated and hated him, wouldn't his life be ruined?
Gan Qiongying stood by the bed and thought for a long time, if she changed places, she would not only be unwilling to cooperate, but even hate.
Does he hate?
In any case, she can't debunk anything tonight.
Even if it is revealed that the colt is exactly the same as Kanegawa Proton, so what? In the end, the discarded chess pieces will still be Lihua.
Even they can find a "coincidence" to explain, after all, they have never heard that the Jinchuan royal family gave birth to twins.
The room was so silent that it could be heard that the needles were falling, except for the sound of the quilt shaking and shaking, and a group of maids who had not been given orders all stood at the door with their eyes down, not daring to enter or leave.
Gan Qiongying slowly half-knelt on the bed, she leaned forward, did not pull down the quilt covering Lihua's face, just leaned over and gently hugged him and the quilt together.
She had already gathered the mess in her head, hugged Lihua and said, "Coming here at night, scared you, right?" ”
"I'm drunk, don't be afraid......" Gan Qiongying did still have a flush on her face, and pretending to be drunk was even better.
"I ...... I fell into the water today. ”
"The princess's mansion is too far away, it's too cold, I heard that you didn't come home, so I came here."
Gan Qiongying hugged Lihua tightly through the quilt and said, "I'll take a shower and sleep...... Don't bother you about not going home, okay? ”
"If you don't want to see me, then cover it," Gan Qiongying coaxed a child, patting Lihua's back through the quilt, but there was no warmth in her eyes.
"We'll see you tomorrow."
Gan Qiongying said: "Tomorrow we will go home together. ”
And Lihua is like a fossil from the moment it was hugged, and it has never moved again.
He curled up in the covers, holding his face, blood spilling from the corners of his mouth and tears streaming down his face.
His nails almost sank into his skin, and he wanted to tear his fleshy face off.
The misfortunes and disasters in his life all stem from this face.
He used to hate his parents and brothers, but now he only hates himself.
Hates himself for being incompetent, hates himself for not being able to get rid of all this, and even for not being able to save the grandmother who secretly picked him up and raised him.
The first time his face was exposed was when he was born, and that was the day he was abandoned and "fell to death".
Before he was exposed for the second time, he was seventeen years old when he was greedy to play on the street, his mask fell, and he was found and caught in the palace by his father's personal guards, and he was imprisoned in a dark cell full of blood, on the line of life and death.
Later, because he was good at business and had the value of being used, he survived.
Since then, he has been wearing a mask day and night, never daring to expose himself in the slightest, if he is exposed again tonight...... He won't survive.
But the cover he wanted to cover was not cruelly torn off.
There was no evil speech, no disgusted gaze, no anger that longed for him to die.
He was softly embraced, and what came through the quilt were soft words and gentle words that he had never heard in his life.
She said she didn't want to see her, so she kept it covered and saw her tomorrow.
She said don't be afraid, she's just drunk.
She said she didn't annoy him for disobedience, but just came to pick him up.
Lihua bit the tip of his aching tongue, and the pain of bleeding from the corner of his mouth couldn't stop his tears.
But he doesn't have a home.
The grandmother who secretly raised him died.
He has no home.
Gan Qiongying quickly went to wash up, giving Lihua time to disguise.
She soaked in the tub, even if she didn't want to think about it, she still couldn't help it.
She had to figure out two things now.
Is Lihua willing to help Zhongli Zhengzhen?
and her ridiculous marriage, whether the emperor really annoyed her, purely to humiliate her, or did he know something.
Gan Qiongying is more inclined to be the emperor with ulterior motives, otherwise the princess's concubine, no matter how she chooses, no matter how many people with a heart will promote it, it will never be a businessman's turn.
And if the emperor really hated her so much that he did not hesitate to humiliate her with life's events, what were the frequent gifts and the priceless rewards she gave to Zhongli Zhengzhen.
It simply doesn't make sense.
Gan Qiongying washed for a long time, and after washing, the sky was almost bright.
She thought about things so much that her brain was about to explode, and she wanted to go back to the house immediately, so that people could spread the word into the palace, and she wanted to face the saint.
She even began to wonder if Zhongli Zhengzhen suddenly showed favor to her last night, and did not hesitate to use the hallucinogenic drugs that he was willing to use on her in advance, if he had some conspiracy?
But there are many things, obviously not something that can be figured out for a moment.
Gan Qiongying took a shower and came out, thinking that she had given her a chance, and Lihua must have run away.
At least go and put the mask back on.
But she found that Lihua didn't run, and rolled up the quilt to lie down in the bed.
The quilt was covered on top of his head, obviously he didn't wear a mask at all, and he knew to cover his face, and his long hair was exposed, which was messy.
Listening to the rhythm of breathing, he actually fell asleep, and left half of his place.
Gan Qiongying looked at him, and the messy thoughts in her mind were temporarily dispersed.
She actually wanted to laugh a little.
She's really a soldier.
Although he doesn't get along much with Lihua, Lihua is indeed different from Zhongli's true methods.
Everyone says that those who become big things are not informal, Zhongli Zhengzhen can patiently coax her to open a room, before Lihua misunderstood that she wanted to share a room, and also took out a knife to threaten her, and after the knife was robbed, he bit his tongue and committed suicide.
He has such a heart, such clear and stupid eyes.
How is it possible to voluntarily be a pawn?
She heard him sobbing through the quilt just now, whose chess piece is still crying.
Gan Qiongying sat on the edge of the bed and laughed silently for a while, then sent the maidservant out, climbed into bed and closed her eyes and went to sleep.
Gan Qiongying tossed all night, and her brain cells were consumed too much, and she soon fell asleep.
She didn't know that Lihua hadn't actually slept, so she deliberately breathed evenly, lying in the quilt and waiting.
He didn't know what he was waiting for, maybe he would wait for Gan Qiongying to discover his secret.
He has a kind of self-defeating determination, but he has expectations in his heart that he can't hide and can't suppress.
Are those words she said true?
She would take care of his wishes, not to lift his quilt, not to annoy him for lying to her that she would not return to the princess's mansion, but to pick him up...... Go home?
No one can understand why Lihua has been humiliated and scolded many times, but on such a night, he has a cheap expectation of an abuser.
Maybe it's because the word "home" has always been an unattainable dream for him.
Maybe Lihua was just deceived by those soft words and gentle words, like a ghost.
Or maybe...... It is a dog that has been abandoned, beaten and scolded since birth, and does not even need a bone, as long as it hooks its fingers, it will follow people.
He waited a long time.
I heard Gan Qiongying go to bed.
Hear her breathing gradually steady.
Then after she fell asleep, I don't know how long, when it was dawn, he waited for an arm that was placed on his waist like a hug.
At this moment, Lihua even wanted to cry.
