Li Zhongci supported Jin Lu to the carriage and asked her to go up, but he
stopped outside.
Jin Lu looked back at him: "Brother Zhongci doesn't sit down?"
"The carriage is narrow, so my sister can rest by herself."
"But..." Jin Lu looked around, "You only brought a carriage?"
Li Zhong resigned, "It's hard at home now, and I can't afford so many carts
and horses."
Jin Lu was silent and said, "Then come up and sit together. It's all about
this time. Besides, you and I are a husband and wife, and it doesn't matter if
you ride in a carriage."
Li Zhongci wanted to say that it was just a concubine's room, not a husband
and wife.
But looking at Jin Lu's haggard and weak appearance, she didn't want to hurt
her again, so she didn't speak, and silently climbed into the carriage and sat
in the farthest place opposite her.
This carriage belongs to the Li family, but after the little princess was
born, in order to make the little princess sit comfortably, it was specially
modified. In addition to being spacious and comfortable, there are many hidden
compartments where you can put some clothes, food and toys.
Li Zhongci took out a pot of water and handed it to her.
Jin Lu drank half a pot of water, licked her chapped lips, and sighed slowly.
She put down the kettle, touched the thick and soft cushion in the carriage,
and whispered, "I thought I would never be able to get out again."
Li Zhongci didn't respond, and looked out of the carriage window motionless,
his eyes out of focus.
Jin Lu asked: "To redeem me this time, the family spent a lot of money,
right?"
"No money was spent."
"What?" Jin Lu puzzled, "I didn't spend any money, so what did it use?"
Li Zhongci didn't speak.
Jin Lu frowned: "Brother Zhongci, you have become less talkative now. You are
talking."
Li Zhongci smiled: "It's useless. If you insist, you probably use my face."
"What?" Jin Lu was stunned, "I don't understand."
"I went and begged the princess, and begged her to see my relationship with
her in the past and let you go this time." Li Zhongci said slowly, "Of course,
I can't be sure that the princess let you go because of this. Maybe she was so
kind."
Jin Lu stared at him, speechless.
She never expected that Li Zhongci would kneel and beg Princess Rouzhen for
her.
So much so that the last bit of love between them was consumed.
No wonder he looked so complicated just now when he looked at the carriage in
the princess mansion.
Jin Lu's heart was filled with infinite sadness, annoyance, and regret.
She looked at the man on the opposite side, and thought of how high-spirited
and proud he was before.
But now, he is depressed.
The eyes lost their light.
He went from a handsome and charming Duma Duwei to a haggard and silent poor
man.
Jin Lu is so sad.
She was sad and didn't want to talk.
Even, I don't want to see him anymore.
My heart is like being blocked by a heavy stone.
The bright autumn sun also became pale and uninteresting.
silence.
There is only unspeakable silence.
When approaching the door of Li's house, Jin Lu couldn't stand it anymore and
said, "Brother Zhongci, can't you forget Princess Rouzhen?"
Li Zhongci said indifferently: "It's up to now, what's the use of talking
about it."
"You just say if it's not."
"Sister Jin, from the very beginning, I never thought of accepting you as a
concubine. Although I and you grew up together in childhood, they are just
brothers and sisters. For a person like you, why bother to waste your mind? In
me, I have consumed myself to where I am now."
Jin Lu's heart was cut like a knife, and she was startled and shed tears: "Do
I love you, am I wrong?"
