Unspeakable hatred of rich men

Immediately Long Xi heard Zhuan'er's answer, turned his head and smiled to Zuo Yanting and said, "Don't worry about it? You still treat yourself like a child, but you don't know that you are bored at home every day, and your family is worried."

Zuo Yanting glared at him angrily, thinking who did it wrong?If you didn't ruin my marriage again and again, wouldn't my parents be worried about me?It's a pity that they were kept in the dark, thinking that their son was really relaxing in this mansion, but they didn't know that I was being bullied here.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he almost wanted to ask for the usual money back.Now he himself understands that when Zhuan'er led him to the study, he must have known Long Xi's thoughts about him, that he pushed himself into the fire pit.

Before he could speak, Zhuan'er was already happy.Then the other three or four little eunuchs said in a soft voice: "Return to the lord, the dinner is ready, shall we pass it on now? Where will it be placed?"

Long Xi thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Yanting, since you are here today, I will spend a little extravagantly and let you see the scenery of my mansion." After speaking, he said to the little eunuch: "Open the garden Put the door to Duyunxuan, and ask people to light up all the lamps nearby."

Zuo Yanting still didn't understand, but Long Xi had already dragged him away, and said with a smile: "I'll understand later, let's go, let's wait in the room and have some hot tea and snacks."

The two went back to the house and sat down, Zuo Yanting thought of his own fate in the future, couldn't help feeling a little worried, and couldn't eat anything.He was just in a daze, and after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly heard Long Xi say: "The garden must be ready, let's go, I'll show you."

Zuo Yanting was a little sleepy, after all, the "exercise" he did today was more intense than his total exercise in a year.But Long Xi took his hand and did not allow him to refuse, so he had to follow him to the garden.

At this time, it was the middle of the unitary hour. As soon as I entered the garden and walked through a quiet path, suddenly my eyes suddenly opened up. I could only see the distance, the height and the height, and I don't know how many lamps were lit, which only illuminated a place as bright as day.

Zuo Yanting had never seen these marvels before, he couldn't help being stunned.Silly followed Long Xi along the mountain road to Duyunxuan, leaning on the fence and looking around, there are tens of thousands of lights below, all hanging on the trees and grass, looking from a distance, it seems like a sea of ​​stars has fallen into this mortal world In general, it is really beautiful and magnificent.

Seeing that Zuo Yanting was staring blankly, Long Xi couldn't help showing a look of complacency on his face, because he dragged him back again and said: "Don't rush to watch, it's not too late to watch after dinner, today we will be here in Duyunxuan Rest, come, eat first, I remember all the things you like to eat on weekdays, try it, and see if the food in the palace suits your taste."

Zuo Yanting turned around speechlessly, only to see a table full of dishes in front of him, a dazzling array of delicacies, all delicious in color, fragrance, and taste, he sighed, thought for a while, and finally couldn't help saying: "My lord, I know that our Daning The dynasty is prosperous and prosperous, but you are so extravagant, it is too much."

"What are you afraid of? It's not like this every day. There are also lights in the lotus lake, and the flowers are blooming now. In summer, I often like to sit in the lotus wind pavilion and look at the lights all over the lake. Anyway, I know myself, die It is impossible to become a god in the future, so it is better to enjoy the scenery of this fairy house while you are rich and honored."

While talking, Long Xi gave Zuo Yanting a piece of tamales.But seeing his brows furrowed, he just murmured: "You are so luxurious, do you know what kind of life the common people live? Although most people can still live and work in peace and contentment, there are not beggars and disaster-stricken people on the street. Among the refugees, there are probably people who died of starvation.”

"You just eat at this time, what are you worrying about? When it's time to give alms, I won't be stingy." Long Xi felt a little panicked in his heart. He thought that Zuo Yanting would be delighted and praised, but he didn't expect it to be the opposite. It made him very sad.What does the refugee people have to do with him?Isn't he just a little nerd on weekdays?I can't see that there is still such a feeling of worrying about the country and the people.

So the meal was tasteless.Fortunately, in summer, the Duyun Pavilion is very cool, and it is lit with incense to help sleep and prevent mosquitoes, so it is a good night's sleep.

On the first day of Zuo Yanting, he didn't dare to take big strides when he walked, but gradually he got better.Those secret medicines that Long Xi used for him were indeed useful, but the process was too shameful.Fortunately, perhaps because of pity for him or other reasons, she did not commit violence against him again.

However, Zuo Yanting was always terrified in his heart. Having experienced a forced sexual act, he couldn't help trembling when he thought of those scenes.

Seeing that three days have passed, the redness and swelling in his backyard have long subsided, and since last night, he has noticed that Long Xi's eyes looking at him have a little more meaning, and occasionally he can catch a look of mad desire from the corner of his eyes .

Zuo Yanting knew very well that he might not let him off tonight.So without waiting for dinner, he told Long Xi that he was going home.

His reasons were good enough. He was away from home for three days, so he should have gone back to have a look.So Long Xi didn't stop him, he just told him to come back soon.

According to Zuo Yanting's mind, he didn't want to come back, but if Qingzhi said that, Long Xi might go crazy and ask him on the spot, so he could only vaguely agree.

However, Long Xi didn't seem to notice the perfunctory in his tone, and happily ordered someone to send him back, and also asked him to bring home two packs of high-quality tribute Maojian, as a gift for his family.

Zuo Yanting didn't care too much, and when he got home, he had no choice but to put on a smile because he was afraid that his parents would be worried.Zuo's father and left's mother only thought that their son was really relieved by his "friends" and his heart was untied, and they were all very happy.

During lunch, I couldn't help talking about finding a wife for Zuo Yanting again, but Zuo Yanting, who was still smiling, suddenly darkened, and even put down his chopsticks. He just showed a smile, why is he anxious to mention this again.

So he was busy and comforted him with kind words, but Zuo Yanting didn't listen, and said lightly that he was full, and went back to the room.

Lying on the bed, I felt tears were about to fall, and my heart was extremely sad.Thinking of her father and mother going in without knowing, she thought that she would really unravel the knot in her heart and be able to marry a wife and have children properly, but she didn't know that the current self would never have the possibility of marrying a wife and having children.

Thinking of this, my nose couldn't help but ache, and a tear fell.Zuo Yanting looked at the water stains on the bed, and suddenly tried to tear the bed curtain fiercely, but he had no strength to restrain the chicken, so he couldn't tear off the bed curtain so easily.

Recalling the day when Long Xi raped him, his clothes were ripped open several times, his hands were sharper than swords, and now the bed curtain was just a thin layer of gauze, and he was still helpless, How could it be possible to escape from his clutches, not to mention his power, there must be countless capable people and strange men under his command.

Is this life destined to be like this?Be a confinement in the palace for a lifetime, until the youth is gone and the appearance is old and ugly?

Zuo Yanting sat on the side of the bed in despair, and found that he seemed to have only this way to go.But he is not reconciled, he is a man, how can he play the role of a woman under another man, he must find a way to reverse this humiliating fate.

Looking up, inadvertently, he saw the bronze mirror on the table, which he used to illuminate when combing his hair, and it was lying flat on the table beside the bed.

Zuo Yanting picked up the bronze mirror, stared at the delicate face in the mirror, his fingers also slowly came to his own face, and rubbed it there repeatedly.

He remembered that Long Xi said that he was handsome and elegant, and that his skin was smooth and smooth, which was no less than that of a young girl.So, are these two things that attract him?If this is the case, then destroy the face, cut off the skin all over the body, and let the face and body be covered with ugly scars. In this way, that person will not be obsessed with himself anymore, right?

Zuo Yanting was excited like never before, he felt that he had finally found a shortcut to avoid Long Xi, he went around in circles, and finally found a fruit knife in the fruit plate on the table.

Sitting in front of the mirror again, Zuo Yanting's hands couldn't help trembling after the initial excitement. After all, this is about self-harm. The handsome face in the mirror is his own face. When he thinks about it soon, it will bleed Li Li was hideous and terrifying, how could he remain calm.

However, compared to the shame of being regarded as a taboo all his life, he felt that he had no choice.He took a deep breath, raised the knife, and slowly slashed at his face.

With a soft "ding", Zuo Yanting's wrist was instantly numb with severe pain, and the fruit knife fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"Ah..." He yelled in fright, and instantly thought that Long Xi was outside the window, but when he looked over, he only saw a strange man in black.

"You... who are you? What are you going to do?" Zuo Yanting leaned against the table in fright, staring nervously at the man in black. His fear was no less than Long Xi's.

"My lord, please don't forget what the lord said." The man in black looked at Zuo Yanting indifferently, thought for a while, and then said: "I think it's your first offense, this time I can pretend I didn't know." After finishing speaking, he He turned backwards, and when Zuo Yanting arrived at the window, he had disappeared.

"Yanting, what's the matter?" An old voice came, Zuo Yanting quickly turned around, walked over to support the silver-haired old lady, and said softly: "Grandma, it's okay, I just saw a stray cat outside. Startled."

"I seem to hear you talking to someone." Although the old lady is over 60 years old, her ears are still very good.

"Oh, it's...it's nothing, I scared it a few words, and it left." Zuo Yanting's forehead remained calm except for a layer of sweat.

"Silly boy, that wild cat doesn't understand human language. You wave your hand, and it runs faster than anything else. How can you talk to it? You are such an idiot."

The old lady shook her head with a smile, gave Zuo Yanting a few more words, and walked away on crutches. Zuo Yanting went all the way to the courtyard. When she saw a maid rushing over, she handed her grandma to her until she saw it with her own eyes. He didn't turn around until grandma entered the house.

Sitting on the bed in a daze for a long time, Zuo Yanting never thought that Long Xi would be so meticulous. He had seen in those legendary scripts that those high-ranking officials and aristocrats kept shadow dead soldiers who could disappear in an instant. In a flash, he thought that those were compiled in novels, and those masters raised in the palace who were said to be able to go high and high were already incredible. How can there be such a master who kills thousands of miles and pays back overnight? Not human anymore.

However, now Fang knows that this kind of people really existed, and they were used by Long Xi to guard him in secret.He slowly leaned against the bedpost, laughed at himself bitterly, and murmured: "My lord, my lord, you really think highly of me, and even sent such a capable man to watch over you, you treat me...you are so kind." Terrible."

Now that the matter has come to this point, Zuo Yanting also knows that the idea of ​​self-mutilation is to stop fighting.In fact, if you think about it carefully, you are also reckless.Since Long Xi said that if he committed suicide, he would be buried with his clan, if he killed himself, wouldn't he be angry at his relatives and other relatives and friends?

Could it be... is there really no way to escape?Zuo Yanting stared blankly at the green shade outside the window, if it was summer in previous years, he would like to go under that big tree to enjoy the shade, but today, he is not in that mood anymore.

Thinking of enjoying the coolness, I also thought of Baiyun Temple, which is also a good place to escape the summer heat. I used to go there often in summer. There were many people swimming and playing in the lake at the back of the mountain, and there were naughty half-grown children picking lotus flowers and water chestnuts. It's just that it's early autumn now, presumably there will be no way to go to Baiyun Temple in the next summer.

How nice it would be if... if I didn't go to Baiyun Temple that day?He wouldn't know Long Xi's identity, and he wouldn't impulsively come to the door to inquire about the crime. Now that he thought of himself who lost all reason at the time, how is it different from the lamb who took the initiative to send himself to the tiger's mouth?

That's the prince, can you, a commoner, be the one to ask the crime?Even the Han family had to withdraw their engagement because of his words, so what is a small scholar without even the title of a scholar?

Zuo Yanting laughed miserably again, he thought that Miss Han San had retired and married someone else in the future, there would always be happiness to speak of, but what about himself?I'm afraid that from now on, they will only be trapped in a boundless abyss of darkness.

Not reconciled, really not reconciled, why?He is a common man, why can't he live his life well?Why do you have to bow your head to that person?Why can't you marry a woman and have children?

"My son, if your family has more money, leave the capital as soon as possible. I don't know what kind of grievances you have with the Ninth Prince. However, if you stay in the capital for a day, your marriage will not go well. It's better to leave here, or you can ask for a husband and wife with white heads and children. "

Thinking of getting married and having children, the words Miss Han San said flashed through Zuo Yanting's mind like a flash of lightning, he stood up suddenly, his eyes flashed brightly, and said secretly: "Yes, Miss Han San said That's right, I can move, Long Xi is the prince, I can't fight him, but can't I hide from him?"

It's just... It's just that if you want to hide, it's not easy.Zuo Yanting sat down again in a blink of an eye, bowed his head and began to think, secretly thinking that if I want to avoid Long Xi's sight, it is really not easy, nothing else, just that shadow dead man, our whole family cannot avoid it.

What's more, even if he moved away and hid in a place where he couldn't find it, what would the relatives of the nine clans in his hometown do?If Long Xi can't find me, he will definitely find them.

Because the more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, and I felt that this was not feasible, but I really couldn't think of any other way.Zhengjue was in a state of panic, and suddenly heard a servant girl's voice from outside saying: "Master, Mrs. Madam asked you to eat in the front hall, and said that if you don't want to go, you can have the food delivered here."

Zuo Yanting was awakened from his contemplation, looked outside, and saw that the sky had turned dark at some point, he was only thinking about things, he didn't realize the passage of time.Yin hurriedly said loudly: "Got it, you go back and tell the master and madam, I'll go over to eat later."

After speaking, he hurriedly washed his face with water.Because the Zuo family is not a wealthy family, Zuo Yanting does not have a servant girl by his side, because the parents of the Zuo family are worried that the maid will seduce their son.Secondly, Zuo Yanting didn't want to be served by someone around him, he likes to be more free and undisciplined, Zuo's parents saw that their son was well-behaved and sensible, so they just let him go, and didn't give him anyone to serve him.

Immediately after washing up, I only felt refreshed, so I changed my clothes and went to the front hall.

The whole family sat together to eat, during the dinner Zuo Yanting saw that Zuo's father seemed to have a worried look on his brow, he couldn't help but feel anxious, wondering if his father had heard any rumors, the palace has a large population, and he lived there for three days, if It is very normal to have any gossip.

Yin cautiously opened his mouth to ask, but he heard Zuo's father say, "It's nothing, it's just that your third uncle wrote a letter from his hometown yesterday, saying that this year coincides with the centenary festival. Besides, he wants to take us back to our hometown in Changbai Mountain to worship our ancestors.”

Zuo Yanting almost screamed, and quickly suppressed himself, but his heart was beating wildly, and asked in a low voice: "Worshiping ancestors? But... is it true? Why have I never Have you ever heard of this saying?"

Father Zuo glanced at him, smiled slightly, and said, "No wonder you haven't heard of it, even I haven't caught up with you. Your grandfather hasn't caught up with him. He is the current patriarch. At that time, he didn't know where he was waiting to be reincarnated."

Zuo Yanting vaguely knew that his ancestors seemed to come from Changbai Mountain.I heard that hundreds of years ago when the dynasties changed, they were persecuted, so they took the whole family and grandchildren to move to Changbai Mountain, because there was a tribal leader there who was very kind and took them in. In the next few decades, the ancestors of the Zuo family have been living forever. Living in the mountains, the tablets of the ancestors are also there.

Later, when the world was settled, some young people from the Zuo family fell in love with the prosperity of the Central Plains. Knowing that the Zuo family also moved here, they thought about going back.After many twists and turns, they finally returned to the Central Plains to settle down. However, some old people were used to living in a paradise and did not want to come back.

Therefore, those Zuo family members who returned to the Central Plains set a rule that they could not worship their ancestors on weekdays, but they had to go back to Changbai Mountain to worship their ancestors every 50 years.But after hundreds of years, there are not many times that people can really go back to worship their ancestors on time, and there are so many people in the clan, even if they go back, there will always be people who can't go because of various reasons.

Although Zuo Yanting let go of the thought of self-mutilation, the thought of running away just now hadn't been completely given up. It was just because he felt that it was too remote and impossible, so he had no choice but to give up. Unexpectedly, at this time, his father Those words made him see hope again.

After careful planning, he felt that this matter was feasible. After returning to Changbai Mountain, he explained everything to himself and his clansmen to prevent them from returning to the Central Plains.If they insisted on coming back and were blamed by Long Xi, they would not be able to blame themselves.

As for those children who couldn't go, Zuo Yanting really couldn't care about them.Because they are all distant relatives, presumably Long Xi will not necessarily take his anger out on them.What's more, there is always a glimmer of hope in his heart, he feels that although the current Emperor Shengming, He Qing Haiyan, and Long Xi speak cruelly, if he really escapes with his family, he may not be able to move his clansmen, even if He thought, the emperor may not necessarily believe it, the crime of genocide requires the emperor to write the verdict himself.

Because of the secret plan at the moment.Just don't be in a hurry, so as not to arouse Long Xi's suspicion.

Zuo Yanting is too aware of that person's forbearance and shrewdness, and this is his only chance, so he must seize it well and be sure to be foolproof. Anyway, his father said that if he really wants to worship the ancestors with his tribe, he will need more than one It will be a month before I can leave, just to let myself plan and plan well.

The words were revealed, and Zuo Yanting rested at home for another two days. That night, the man in black suddenly came in through the window again, and said indifferently: "My lord, you must return to the palace tomorrow, no matter what you use. The reason.” After saying that, he left in a flash.

Zuo Yanting trembled with anger, thinking what am I?Am I your Longxi's plaything?You let me go and I will go.Immediately when my temper came up, I secretly thought that I would fight to shut down Shuxiangzhai, and I would not go out. Could it be that you can still take me away?You took me away, wouldn't my parents report the crime?Hmph, it's better to risk the lives of the whole family and fight you to the death, even if you die, it's better than being bullied by you.

Because of this bloody attack, he actually stayed behind closed doors.Zuo's parents became worried again. When they asked him, they heard that he didn't want to run Shuxiangzhai anymore.

Zuo Yanting couldn't tell because he was in trouble, so he had to say that he was preparing for returning to Changbai Mountain. Instead of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, it would be better to open Shuxiangzhai after returning from Changbai Mountain, and he could continue to operate for a long time.

His parents made sense after thinking about it, so they nodded in agreement.

At noon on the second day, the man in black came to remind him again, but Zuo Yanting still didn't move.It made the man in black laugh, shook his head and said, "Obviously it's an egg hitting a rock, so why do you have to touch it?" After saying that, he left without forcing him.

Zuo Yanting heaved a sigh of relief, in fact, although he was bloody, he was still terrified in his heart, seeing that the evil spirit was sent away so easily at this moment, he was surprised and delighted at the same time, secretly thinking that Long Xi really meant it. It's harsh to say, but it's still a bit measured.

Unexpectedly, in the evening, the chicken coop, cowshed and pigpen in the backyard of my house suddenly caught fire, and dozens of chickens, two cows and three pigs were burned to death. died.Mother Zuo was very sad, and to them, this was not a small loss.

Zuo's father comforted Zuo's mother a few words, saying that he would just buy it again.But Zuo Yanting stood there blankly, looking at the ruins that had been reduced to ashes, he could hardly believe his eyes.

Zuo's mother was still reading: "Why did it catch fire when it was so good? Why didn't we know it? Why didn't anyone see it?" and so on.

Zuo's father also felt that this fire was really strange, but since there was nothing to investigate, he had no choice but to let it go.
