He couldn't say it, as if he was admitting defeat when he said that he thought about him, Lu Ganjun's face was cold, Jiang Rong laughed ironically, stopped talking, and Dong Zhi walked in naked after coaxing him to sleep.

At some point outside the window, it started to rain lightly again, Jiang Rong was tossed by Lu Ganjun, his body hurt so much that he almost lost consciousness.

Coward... Jiang Rong said in his heart.

The days passed like this, and two years passed by. In the past two years, Lu Ganjun has brought down many forces in the court and China, and has really grasped the entire court in his hands. He is about to start thinking about the queen.

With the disintegration of many forces, many concubines in the palace are useless. The honest concubine Lu Ganjun secretly released her from the palace. Liang Qiuyi also left a year ago, and the dishonest one died quietly in the palace. No one knows either.

There have been no drafts in the past two years, and there are not many concubines left in the palace, and it is impossible for Lu Ganjun to find a queen among them.

Knowing that there was no need to rush this matter, Lu Ganjun simply let it be. He was a little nervous, not knowing what kind of person the queen would be in the future.

Jiang Rong's figure suddenly appeared in his mind, Lu Ganjun lowered his eyes and stopped thinking about it.

"Is there any son and crown recently?"

Xu Gongfu bowed his body and thought carefully, and said: "The second son of General Cui's family, Cui Lianzhu, seems to be crowned next month."

"Cui Lianzhu..." Lu Ganjun murmured to himself, General Cui was single-handedly picked up by him, and if his son becomes the queen, it is not impossible.

"Is there a portrait?"

"Yes." Xu Gongfu quickly presented Cui Lianzhu's portrait. The person in the painting was dressed in a thin summer dress, his waist was tightly tied, his eyebrows were gentle, his lips were red and his teeth were white. He was a delicate and beautiful young man.

"Cui Changsheng is a military general, but he can raise his son so delicate." Lu Ganjun was surprised, but it was just what he wanted, "I will go to the ceremony myself when I get ready for the crowning ceremony."

"Your servant takes orders." Xu Gongfu hesitated for a moment, but withdrew, accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger, it is better not to say some things, His Majesty's heart is like a mirror.

In two years, Su Yue's child was more than one year old and could not learn to speak. Su Yue was extremely anxious. The imperial physicians in the palace searched and searched, but they couldn't find the problem, and even the folk doctors couldn't cure it.

There is a palace banquet on the fifteenth of every month, that is, the royal family gathers to have a meal. In the past two years, there are fewer and fewer people, and the palace banquet has become more and more boring. Jiang Rong didn't plan to come, thinking that he had already rejected it twice. Yes, it's not decent to refuse any more, so here we go.

Dongzhi could already walk steadily by himself, Jiang Rong took him seriously and cared for him well, at this moment he was wearing a bright yellow dress, holding half a piece of Sophora japonica cake in his hand, walking like A little fat chirp who has lost a lot of weight, and looks back at Jiang Rong from time to time, for fear that his father will not be able to keep up with him, his appearance is extremely cute.

The palace banquet was held in Changle Palace, Jiang Rong and the others walked there quickly, sitting in the corner all the time, Dongzhi sat beside him honestly, neither noisy nor noisy, only a pair of big black eyes were rolling around , Shi Dongzhi was very happy to see Lu Ganjun, he knew this was his father.

Joyfully puffing out her small chest, she wanted Lu Ganjun to notice him. When she saw Lu Ganjun holding a child in her arms, the surprise in her bright eyes suddenly went out.

His father hadn't hugged him yet, Dongzhi was very sad, with tears in his eyes, and threw himself into Jiang Rong's arms.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Rong tried the water temperature and tried to make Dongzhi drink some water, but Dongzhi put his head in his arms and didn't speak.

He doesn't understand, isn't his father his father?Why are you holding another baby.

Jiang Rong hugged Dong Zhi in his arms, wiped Dong Zhi's face, children's emotions came and went quickly, Dong Zhi was soon attracted by the delicate snacks, Jiang Rong broke down a little bit. He kept looking forward.

Following Dong Zhi's gaze, Jiang Rong saw Lu Ganjun holding Su Yue's child in his arms, and Su Yue stepped back half a step to follow, like a family of three.

Thinking of Cai Dongzhi's sudden movement just now, and the envy that he still can't learn to hide in his round eyes, Jiang Rong felt a pain in his heart.

Dongzhi also wanted his father to hug her...

Realizing this fact, Jiang Rong felt very sad. He couldn't tell Dongzhi that his father was also the father of other children, and because of himself, even he was not liked by his father.

But Jiang Rong is considered an open-minded person now, he looked into Dong Zhi's eyes gently, and said, "I'm sorry Dong Zhi, because of my father, I can't make my father like Dong Zhi."

Unable to understand the words that were too profound, Dong Zhi shook his little head and leaned into Jiang Rong's arms, "Daddy."

"Ok?"

"Dongzhi, I like Daddy the most." Father made Daddy unhappy, so he didn't want his father anymore, he only wanted Daddy.

"Daddy also likes Dongzhi the most." Jiang Rong kissed Dongzhi's forehead, feeling relieved.

Now he just waits for the imperial physicians to cure Dongzhi's illness, and then take Jiang Rong out of the palace to live a free life.

I don't know if it's because of Lu Ganjun's temperament, or because of the tempering of the treatment process, Dong Zhi didn't love to laugh like when he was a child, and became silent. Jiang Rong thought of many ways, and Dong Zhi only said a few words in front of him, Other times they are silent, observing the world with only one pair of eyes.Fortunately, Dongzhi was smart, so Jiang Rong didn't think too much about it.

Another month later, Dongzhi's last treatment was over, and she looked no different from a normal child. The imperial doctor also said that she was recovering very well, and Jiang Rong finally let go of her heart.

It's just that his own health has not been very good, and he has become weaker and weaker recently, and he has not recovered after drinking a lot of soup.

Lu Ganjun went to attend Cui Lianzhu's crowning ceremony in person, which aroused countless speculations.After meeting Cui Lianzhu, Lu Ganjun was also very satisfied. Cui Lianzhu himself was calm and docile, which was exactly what Lu Ganjun liked.

As for the relationship, it can be cultivated slowly. Both he and Jiang Rong can have a relationship, and it should be easier with Cui Lianzhu.

Thinking of Jiang Rong again, Lu Qianjun simply took Cui Lianzhu into the palace, which caused countless discussions, both inside and outside the palace were discussing that His Majesty's good news was about to come, and that the harem was about to add a newcomer.

Naturally, Jiang Rong also heard about this, and met the protagonist Cui Lianzhu the next day.

Contrary to what he thought, Jiang Rong originally thought that Cui Lianzhu was a handsome and handsome man, but in fact he was a male and female indistinguishable type, and some people believed that he was a pair of children.Jiang Rong avoided him and took a small path, but Cui Lianzhu was unwilling to give up this rare opportunity.

Cui Lianzhu had heard about the love-hate entanglement between Jiang Rong and Lu Ganjun when he was outside the palace. He had always wanted to see what kind of person could make that man fascinated, but he was a little disappointed when he saw it today.

His complexion is gloomy, his figure is thin, and he has a lame foot. I heard that he is the same age as himself, but he looks a few years older, which is really nothing to be afraid of.

"Cui Lianzhu, I have met Jiang Shijun." Jiang Rong turned sideways to avoid his salute, lowered his eyes and nodded, as a greeting, and hurried away.

But Jiang Rong felt tired after walking a hundred meters. Sitting on the stool, panting, he couldn't help but think of Cui Lianzhu. He was good-looking and young, and he was liked by Lu Ganjun.

Jiang Rong thought, it's time to go.

In the next few days, there were several chance encounters, and Cui Lianzhu always seemed to like to play in places not far from Qingyan Pavilion.There are also many people in the palace who can't wait to flatter him, so they couldn't help but sarcasm when they saw Jiang Rong.

"I heard that His Majesty loves Jiang Shijun very much?" Cui Lianzhu seemed to have no intention of asking.

"That was in the past. Looking at him now, he looks like a ghost. Beggars on the side of the road can't even talk about it. His Majesty has long disliked him."

Cui Lianzhu took another look at Jiang Rong from a distance, "But I saw Jiang Shijun, he's quite pretty..."

"Oh! It's not half as good-looking as the young master. Don't worry, Mr. Cui. His Majesty must like you. Jiang Rong is nothing to be afraid of."

Cui Lianzhu lowered her head shyly, suppressing the ambition in her eyes, "Well, I'm afraid that His Majesty doesn't like me..."

"I don't like being able to bring you into the palace with such a high profile."

"That's it."

He looked at the things in the house, the small clothes he sewed for Dong Zhi, the small wooden sword he carved when he had nothing to do, and the picture book for painting, and some vegetables from the yard can also be picked and brought.Jiang Rong has saved up the routine silver issued in the past two years, and there are more than 200 taels, which is enough for him to live after leaving the palace.

After packing up his things, Jiang Rong asked Dong Zhi if he wanted to leave, Dong Zhi hugged Jiang Rong's neck tightly without thinking, and whispered in Jiang Rong's ear, "Dong Zhi will go with Daddy."

Although he was young, he vaguely felt that his father was unhappy, so he rubbed Jiang Rong's face, "Dong Zhi likes father the most."

Over and over again, only this sentence comforted Jiang Rong, but Jiang Rong would laugh because of Dong Zhi's words, "Daddy also likes Dong Zhi the most."

A few days later, it was reported that Qin Tianjian had planned the date of the confinement. Jiang Rong knew that he couldn't wait, so he went to Lu Ganjun to talk about leaving.

"It was agreed with His Majesty back then, and His Majesty should leave when he has a Queen."

That's what he said, but Lu Ganjun didn't want Jiang Rong to go.

"At that time, I didn't know that you would give birth to my child. Now that you have Dongzhi, the world also knows that I have a prince. You can go, but you have to keep Dongzhi." He knew that Jiang Rong couldn't be with Dongzhi. Knowing that they are separated, neither of them can leave in the end.

"Dongzhi is not His Majesty's child." Jiang Rong couldn't help reminding him, "What's more, Concubine Shu has already given birth to an heir to His Majesty."

Jiang Rong couldn't tell whether Lu Ganjun was real or fake, he only knew that his child was not the emperor's child at all, and recalled the envy in Dong Zhi's eyes when he saw Lu Ganjun holding Su Yue's child, Jiang Rong left in his heart The idea is even worse.

He does not want his children to envy others.He is not favored, and even Dongzhi will not be valued. In the future, when Dongzhi grows up and is sensible, he will think why his father doesn't like him. Jiang Rong himself grew up in such an environment, and he is reluctant to experience Dongzhi again.

"Whether Dongzhi is my child or not, in the eyes of the world, he is the eldest son of my emperor." Lu Ganjun talked to him impatiently, "In short, don't mention the matter of leaving the palace."

"Your Majesty said before that he would marry the person he really loves as the queen and keep his ministers in the palace. Isn't he afraid that the queen will be upset when she finds out?"

"The queen won't mind."

"I don't mind." Jiang Rong smiled, "I mind. I gave birth to Dong Zhi. I don't want him to grow up amid rumors, and I don't want him to grow up in an environment where he has been missing his father."

Anyway, it's out of the question, it doesn't make much sense to Lu Ganjun whether he agrees or not, Jiang Rong turned around and left after finishing speaking, he had already packed his things, Jiang Rong was about to leave with the package on his back and Dong Zhi.

Ever since Liang Qiuyi left the palace, there was no one in Jiang Rong's palace worthy of Jiang Rong's nostalgia, and he left without looking back.

The guards at the gate would naturally stop him, and Jiang Rong followed a carriage. The guards didn't dare to move him, so they could only rush to find Lu Ganjun.

Before the morning court, Lu Ganjun's forehead twitched suddenly. Jiang Rong had been keeping himself safe for the past two years. The obedient Lu Ganjun thought that his temper had changed, but sure enough, he hadn't changed at all.

Hurrying to the gate of the palace, Lu Ganjun said in an unhappy tone, "Go back with me!"

Jiang Rong's face didn't change, Dong Zhi hugged Jiang Rong's leg behind Jiang Rong, quietly poked his head out to look at Lu Ganjun, and hugged Jiang Rong even tighter.

"The minister already told His Majesty yesterday."

"I didn't agree!" Lu Ganjun held back his anger, "Don't let me say it a second time."

"Is the matter of the empress seal true?" Jiang Rong said coldly when he saw Cui Lianzhu walking towards him from the corner of his eye.

"Yes."

"Is Cui Lianzhu His Majesty's beloved?" Jiang Rong asked again. Lu Ganjun just looked at him and didn't speak. Jiang Rong also understood what he meant. I don't care, but since you decided to make him queen, you are ready to like him. People are selfish, and no one wants to share it. Your majesty doesn't mind letting me go now. When the queen cares, how can I deal with myself? ?”

"I said no." Lu Ganjun said coldly, "I will treat Dongzhi better in the future."

"No need." Seeing that Cui Lianzhu had come over, Jiang Rong felt very annoyed, "I owe you nothing with Your Majesty, why can't you let me go?" Jiang Rong couldn't figure it out, Lu Qianjun had already decided to be crowned empress But if you want to trap him in the palace, you can't fall in love with him, Jiang Rong thought to himself.

It can't be said that he is used to Jiang Rong's existence, but Lu Qianjun has to admit that two years is enough to change a lot, not to mention that Lu Ganjun has been accompanied by Jiang Rong for the past two years. To spend the long night with him.

"You can go, but Dong Zhi must stay." Lu Ganjun knew that only this reason could keep Jiang Rong.

"What's the matter?" Cui Lianzhu walked over slowly and saluted. He was dressed gorgeously, his face was fairer than ordinary men, and he spoke softly, making the surroundings quiet down.

A flash of impatience flashed in Lu Ganjun's eyes, and he remembered something, his face softened a lot, "Rong'er insists on leaving, for fear that the queen will be angry."

The suddenly gentle tone made people misunderstand. Everyone thought that Lu Ganjun was really interested in Cui Lianzhu, and the whole person became a lot gentler. Cui Lianzhu obviously thought so too. His cheeks turned red, and he whispered, "The queen is the master of the harem. Definitely not angry."

"That's what I told Rong'er, but he insisted on leaving."

Jiang Rong was so angry that his heart ached. It was clear that he had agreed to let him go after the seal, but now he made a fuss as if he was making trouble for no reason, especially the existence of Cui Lianzhu was simply shocking.

"Why does Jiang Shijun insist on leaving? Could it be that...do you have any opinion on me?" Cui Lianzhu said a little aggrieved, and got closer and closer to Lu Ganjun.

"I have no opinion on you, and I dare not have any opinion. What you do in the future has nothing to do with me." Jiang Rong felt uncomfortable when he heard his pretentious voice, "I just want to leave, it has nothing to do with anyone, I just feel that there is nothing in the palace. suit me."

"I really don't know good from bad..." A voice came from the crowd.

Many ministers thought this way in their hearts. They felt that Jiang Rong was just making trouble for no reason, and dared to take His Majesty's child away.

Not wanting to explain, and wanting to save some face for Lu Ganjun, Jiang Rong allowed these people to misunderstand, looking at Lu Ganjun, just waiting for him to express his opinion.

Those clear eyes seemed to be able to see through the contents hidden in his heart, Lu Ganjun turned his eyes away from him, and couldn't find a reason for Jiang Rongfei's stay, "Su...Xiaoshi can't speak until now, the imperial doctor said that he needs Dongzhi's blood Pray."

Jiang Rong couldn't be misunderstood, and Jiang Rong had to stay, so Lu Qianjun thought of such a reason.

Jiang Rong looked at Lu Ganjun incredulously, "Dongzhi has no origin at all with him, so how can he pray for blessings?" Xiaoshi is Su Yue's son, and has no blood relationship with Dongzhi at all.

"There is always hope in trying."

"Try?!" Jiang Rong was so angry that his eyes turned black, and he staggered, feeling very uncomfortable, "Why let Dong Zhi try!" After Jiang Rong picked up Dong Zhi and was about to leave, Lu Ganjun stretched out his hand to hold him , was slapped backhand by Jiang Rong who was in a hurry.

Everyone around was stunned, Lu Qianjun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at Jiang Rong, this slap used all Jiang Rong's strength, Jiang Rong's palms are still numb now, but he feels relieved.

"Today, you can either let me go or kill me. As long as I'm here, all of you, don't even think about it."

Guards, look at me, I look at you, stop or not, and finally Lu Ganjun said, "Let him go." He was also angry, no one dared to slap him in public, Jiang It's really courageous.

The crowd dispersed quickly, Lu Ganjun watched Jiang Rong dragging away, then turned and left, leaving only Cui Lianzhu, standing there thinking.

Perhaps in the eyes of the emperor, this Jiang Rong was not ignored on the surface at all.

_____

After leaving the palace, Jiang Rong didn't see anyone, and he returned to the small mountain village before.

After coming back after two years, the place has changed a lot. Fang Yuliang was admitted to Juren, Liang Dazhuang and Fang Shi also had a child, and Jiang Rong stood in front of her for a long time before she recognized Jiang Rong.

"You..." Fang walked in and looked at Jiang Rong carefully, and it took a while to recognize, "A Rong!"

"Sister Fang." Jiang Rong smiled weakly at her. After leaving the palace, his health went from bad to worse. Jiang Rong was also afraid in his heart, so he didn't contact anyone and came here.

"How did you become like this?" Fang welcomed her into the room.Two years ago, Jiang Rong was pregnant. Although she was thin, her complexion was not so bad, but now she seemed to be ten years older all of a sudden.

"I just experienced some things." Jiang Rong just came to say hello to her. He was very tired and didn't stay long. He only said a few words and went back to his cabin.

The reason why I came back here is because if I really have any accidents, I can ask Dong Zhi to take care of me.

He has always known that he is not in good health, and he can probably feel that he has not lived for a few years. He has felt it since he was in Liangcheng.It's just that at that time his heart was all on Dongzhi, and he seldom cared about himself. After returning to the palace, his heart was also on Dongzhi. In addition, he had to serve Lu Ganjun a lot, so he didn't have much time to recuperate. So that it was too late to feel something wrong with the body.

He was not in good health since he was a child, and he lost his health during childbirth. During the confinement period, he was beaten or scolded, and coupled with the severe cold in the north, Jiang Rong thought a little self-deprecatingly, that he is already very good to be able to live until now.

Every day you live is one day less, some things need to be discussed as soon as possible, Jiang Rong took advantage of Dongzhi's deep sleep, and carried Dongzhi to Fang's place with the money he had saved in the past two years.

He intends to entrust Dongzhi to the Fang family.The journey along the way was heavy, and Jiang Rong felt extremely painful every time he thought about it since he had this idea.He was reluctant, how could he be willing, he wanted to grow up with Dongzhi, watch him grow into a tall boy step by step, watch him get married, establish a career, and have children.

It's just that he has to let go as soon as possible, Dongzhi is still young, so he will be forgotten soon.

After explaining the purpose of coming, Fang agreed.She was mentally prepared for this. After all, Jiang Rong looked really weak, but she just lamented the impermanence of the world. In the blink of an eye, a person who was in full bloom at that time turned into this appearance.

"Since you entrusted me with it, I will treat Dongzhi as my own child."

"Thank you, Sister Fang." Jiang Rong put Dongzhi into Fang's arms, and the reluctance and nostalgia in his eyes turned into hot tears. After a while, he wiped his face vigorously and pretended to smile, "Then, please Miss Fang."

He got up and left without looking at Dongzhi again. Dongzhi was sleeping soundly. In his sleep, his little hands were grabbing Fang's skirt, scratching and smacking his lips, "Daddy..."

The murmur of dream talk reached Jiang Rong's ears, and he was walking to the door when he heard the sound of his father leaving in pain, so he walked away quickly and cruelly.

He was afraid that he wouldn't leave, so he couldn't bear it.

Returning to the cabin, Jiang Rong felt relieved.From now on, Dongzhi will be like everyone else, he has a mother who loves him, an honest father, and even a well-behaved and lovely sister, these are better than following himself, Jiang Rong thought.

In the future, no one will laugh at him because he has a strange father, no one will...

Lying on the bed clutching his chest, Jiang Rong was so painful that he was about to lose consciousness, tears rolled down his cheeks, and there seemed to be no light in front of his eyes.

He was so uncomfortable, he couldn't bear it.The child who has worked hard for two years will not remember himself in the future, Jiang Rong thought again, what can prove that he has lived in the future.

Restraining the desire in his heart, Jiang Rong hypnotized himself over and over again. The current result is good for everyone, and it is the most beneficial for Dong Zhi. He shouldn't destroy it.

It was getting dark soon, Jiang Rong dragged himself to wash his face, sat by the window and looked at the night sky.

The summer night sky is far and wide, and he remembered what Fu Bingmo said, that after death, people will go to the moon, where there is no cold, hunger, joy, anger, sorrow or joy. People who go there are happy, and they can watch fairies every day. Dance and listen to the fairies.

Moon, the moon is so round tonight, can Daddy see him?If you can see him, can you hear him?

"Daddy..." Jiang Rong whispered with tears in his eyes.

He was in so much pain that he couldn't help but confide to a person who had been dead for more than ten years. Did his father feel as sad as himself when he left him?

In the summer night, he felt unbearably cold. Jiang Rong climbed onto the bed and covered him with a thick quilt, and fell asleep again. He heard a familiar crying sound. Jiang Rong thought it was a dream. He wanted to hold Dong Zhi in his arms. Li comforted her, but when she opened her eyes, she saw Fang standing beside the bed with Dongzhi in her arms.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Rong stood up with difficulty, Dongzhi saw that he woke up and struggled desperately, and suddenly rushed into Jiang Rong's arms, crying out of breath.

"I woke up and cried for a long time. I told him that you have something to do. Let him stay with me for a while. He also behaved obediently, ate something, and fell asleep again. He woke up just now but insisted on looking for you. His voice was hoarse from crying, and I couldn't bear it, so I brought him here."

During the conversation, Dongzhi cried even more hoarsely, holding Jiang Rong tightly with his small hands, Jiang Rong patted Dongzhi's back to comfort him, "Sister Fang, go back and rest first, we will talk about it tomorrow."

Fang nodded and left, Jiang Rong managed to put Dong Zhi to sleep, but she didn't feel sleepy at all.

He was happy in his heart, Dongzhi couldn't do without him.But it was also painful, because Dongzhi didn't want to leave him.

"Dongzhi..." Jiang Rong gently stroked Dongzhi's face. If he had known that he could only be with him for a short two years, maybe he shouldn't have been born then...

Jiang Rong regained his composure the next day, and Dong Zhi kept hugging Jiang Rong's neck, afraid that Jiang Rong would not want him again.

"Dongzhi, it's not that daddy doesn't want you. Dad has something to do. Dongzhi will stay at that younger sister's house for a few days first, and come to pick him up when daddy is done with the matter, okay?" Dongzhi was still lying on Jiang Rong. On the shoulders, the small body trembled, Jiang Rong cried as soon as he said he wanted to leave, which made Jiang Rong even more reluctant.

"But if you don't do this, Daddy will feel very uncomfortable. Don't you know, don't you want Daddy to get better?"

Finally looking up at him, Jiang Rong continued his efforts, "Dongzhi will stay at my sister's house for a month, and after a month, Daddy will be fine."

"Dad doesn't hurt anymore?" Dong Zhi touched Jiang Rong's eyebrows, he knew that Jiang Rong would frown when he was in pain, and he didn't like Jiang Rong's pain.

"Yeah." Jiang Rong lied with red eyes, Dong Zhi raised his head, thought for a while and agreed, "Then Daddy is going to pick me up."

"Ok!"

He patted Jiang Rong's hand and signaled Jiang Rong to put him down. Dong Zhi knew that Jiang Rong didn't want him, so he was not afraid.

Jiang Rong didn't pack up Dongzhi's things yesterday, and originally planned to send them to him today, but Dongzhi himself came back.He found out his little clothes, and wrapped them up like Jiang Rong. He couldn't wrap them tightly, so he asked Jiang Rong to help, and carried them on his back by himself, looking back at Jiang Rong.

"Daddy must pick me up!"

"Hmm..." Jiang Rong tried his best not to let his voice choke. Seeing that he agreed, Dongzhi raised a big smile, pretended to be mature and waved to Jiang Rong, taking small steps, and walked to Fang's house by himself. .

Seeing the little figure turn a corner and completely lose sight, Jiang Rong covered his face and broke down crying.

He had such a good and obedient baby, but he didn't live with him.

Ten days passed in a flash, and Jiang Rong was too weak to get out of bed. He coughed up a mouthful of blood yesterday, which made him stunned for a long time. It was the first time he had such a straightforward feeling. I'm afraid I have to count on my fingers, but I don't know how many times I can meet Dongzhi.

He didn't know the day and night in a daze, until a small knock on the door sounded, Jiang Rong woke up a little bit and felt abdominal cramps, Jiang Rong realized that he seemed to have not eaten for many days.

As soon as he opened his eyes, the sky was slightly brighter. Jiang Rong supported the wall and moved slowly, and finally reached the door.

He thought Fang was worried about him this time, so he opened the door, but there was no one there until someone pulled the corner of his clothes, and Jiang Rong looked down, only to see Dongzhi standing there with tears all over his face .

"Why didn't Daddy pick up Dongzhi when he came back?"

A mouthful of fishy sweetness burst into his mouth, Jiang Rong tried his best to suppress it, and pushed the door ruthlessly, but he was still unable to speak.

He wanted to say that Daddy didn't want you anymore, but how could he bear it, so he closed his eyes in pain, and closed the door under Dongzhi's bewildered expression.

"Daddy is sick, and I'm afraid I'll tell Dong Zhi if he gets sick. When Daddy recovers, I'll pick you up."

The veil was covered with blood, and Jiang Rong couldn't hold back and fell to the ground. Hearing that there was no sound outside the door, Jiang Rong looked out through the crack of the door.Dongzhi stood motionless in front of the door, his small face, which was not fat at first, became thinner and lost flesh in the past few days, his expression was still dazed, his big eyes were full of bewilderment.

"Dad, don't you want Dongzhi?" He knocked on the door carefully again, with his whole face pressed against the door, wanting to hear if Jiang Rong had spoken.

Jiang Rong didn't speak, he covered his mouth to prevent himself from making any sound, moved to the window, and kept looking at Dongzhi outside the window through the screen window.

"Is it because Dongzhi made Daddy unhappy?" Dongzhi asked again.

Still no response, Dongzhi sat down on the ground with his head down, his little hands hugging his knees, he wanted to wait and tell his father when he came out.

Last night was covered with dark clouds, the night sky was not bright at all, and the weather in the morning was not very good. Summer is always cloudy and rainy, and the sky suddenly darkened. There was a loud thunder in the sky, which shocked both inside and outside the door.

Dong Zhi was most afraid of thunder, so Jiang Rong hurried to see Dong Zhi, and saw that he was still curled up and leaning against the door, so afraid that he would not leave.

There was another sound, and Dongzhi dropped the golden peas, his mouth shrunk, and he looked at the closed door.

He didn't understand, he was too young, he just thought that his father didn't want him anymore, so he was afraid, afraid that Jiang Rong would never talk to him again.

His temper always followed Jiang Rong a bit, he was stubborn and refused to admit defeat, no matter how frightened he was by the thunder, he would not leave, and would wait for Jiang Rong to come out.

Thunderstorms and strong winds came one after another, and the heavy rain poured down densely. Jiang Rong couldn't bear it anymore, and opened the door suddenly to bring Dongzhi in.

He didn't have much strength anymore, Jiang Rong hugged Dongzhi and collapsed on the ground, Dongzhi believed that he was sick, and was not angry at his father for shutting him out, so he touched Jiang Rong's small hand forehead, "Daddy is sick."

Jiang Rong asked him to find a thicker clothes to wear, Dongzhi didn't listen to him for the first time, trying to help Jiang Rong up, but realized that he couldn't lift Jiang Rong up, Dongzhi took the pillow and quilt to put Jiang Rong down again , I sat on the edge of the pillow, let Jiang Rong lean into his small arms, and comforted clumsily, "Daddy doesn't hurt, Daddy will be fine..."

I don't know what blessings I accumulated in my previous life to have Dongzhi, Jiang Rong felt that life was worth living.

Even if he met an unkind person and suffered many disasters in his life, Dongzhi saved him by himself, and he only hoped to be able to stay with Dongzhi for a few more days.

Fang has been watching from a distance, saw Jiang Rong carrying Dongzhi in and left.

The fate of parents and children is doomed, and Dong Zhi is destined to be only Jiang Rong's child.

He wanted to respond to Dongzhi, but he could only let his body gradually lose consciousness.

There are many people who care about him, and Liu Yuan has recently resolved the matter that happened many years ago. The old bustard in Fufeng Tower died, so Liu Yuan released all the young masters and ladies in the building, and came to Jiang Rong alone.

When he woke up again, his body was no longer cold, Jiang Rong was nestled under the quilt, Dong Zhi stuffed himself in his arms, Liu Yuan was burning firewood beside him to dry out the humidity in the room.

He already knew everything about Jiang Rong from Fang's mouth, and while feeling sad, he couldn't help complaining a little bit.

Both Fu Bingmo and Jiang Rong had no good results.Man, it's simply unacceptable.

"Uncle Liu?" Upon waking up and seeing him, Jiang Rong thought he was dreaming, Liu Yuan handed him a bowl of water, Jiang Rong took it, "Why did you come here?"

"If I don't come, are you going to hide it from me forever like your father?"

"I..." Jiang Rong wanted to say no, but felt a tickle in his throat, and spit out a mouthful of blood unexpectedly.

"A Rong!" Liu Yuan's complexion changed suddenly. He felt that he was holding Jiang Rong to spit out all the blood, and then helped him rinse his mouth. Dong Zhi was so frightened that he didn't move. Don't be afraid, Dad will only be like this when he is sick, and it won't be when he recovers."

After a big movement, Jiang Rong's pale face became a little bloody, and his lips were stained with blood. The whole person seemed to be more energetic, but this was just an illusion. He knew it, but Dongzhi didn't know it. Jiang Rong He believed everything he said, he nodded his head, "Then Daddy needs to get better soon."

"Yeah." Holding Dong Zhi tightly in his arms, Jiang Rong looked at Liu Yuan. Liu Yuan's face was very bad. He wiped Jiang Rong's mouth with some warm water on a handkerchief, "Did you see the doctor again?" Pass?

"The imperial physician in the palace has seen it." The imperial physician Zhang had already told him the actual situation. He was terminally ill, and there was no cure for it. This was one of the reasons why he was eager to leave the palace.

Liu Yuan didn't say anything more, just called the doctor who had diagnosed Jiang Rong's pulse before, the doctor shook his head after seeing it, and didn't say anything else.

From then on, Liu Yuan didn't say anything to him, just took care of him every day, and gradually became acquainted with Dong Zhi.

"Uncle Liu, if I...you can give Dongzhi to Sister Fang." He knew that Liu Yuan still had a lot to do, so he didn't intend to ask Liu Yuan to take care of her.

"Let's talk about it later." Liu Yuan cooked porridge and asked Jiang Rong to drink it, but Jiang Rong couldn't drink it in one sip, so she lay on the pillow and shook her head.

It was already dark, Dongzhi yawned obviously because he was tired, Jiang Rong beckoned, Dongzhi walked over with small steps.

"Will Dongzhi sleep well tonight?"

"What about Daddy?"

"Daddy also sleeps by himself." He was afraid that if he didn't wake up, he would cast a shadow on Dongzhi.

Dongzhi always listened to him, and this time too, when it was time to go to bed, he climbed into the crib and fell asleep.

"Uncle Liu, let's go to bed earlier." The room was too small, so Liu Yuan found a few boards and put them together, and bought cotton pads to cover it.

"I'll wait, you sleep first."

There was not much strength in his body, Jiang Rong fell into a drowsy sleep after finishing speaking, Liu Yuan couldn't fall asleep, he sat by the window drinking tea, he could only lower his eyes and sigh.

The next morning, Jiang Rong vomited blood again, and couldn't stop it, which made Liu Yuan and Dong Zhi very scared. Seeing their nervous appearance, Jiang Rong was not afraid anymore.

"It's okay, it's just a few mouthfuls of blood, I'll make up for it after drinking some water."

When Dong Zhi heard this, he quickly poured water for him, and carefully held it for him to drink.

This has been the case for several days in a row. Jiang Rong couldn't eat and became thinner and thinner. His face was sallow, and he looked like he had been ill for a long time.

People probably have premonitions about their own death, especially when breathing can feel pain.Only now did Jiang Rong feel afraid, he still had a lot of regrets, whether it was Dong Zhi or Liu Yuan, he cared about everyone in this world who cared about him.

There are many regrets, and he regrets not saying something earlier.

In this life, he has played many roles, father, friend, master...every one of him is not good enough, he cares too much about the pain that person brings him, and instead ignores the beauty of this world.

If only he could do it all over again, he would definitely not have so many regrets.

He wanted to tell Shen Yiheng that he hadn't seen him in ten years, but he actually missed him very much; he wanted to tell Jiayin that he never regarded her as a servant, but a friend he could talk to; he wanted to tell Liang Qiuyi that he was very grateful to be in that situation Now she is willing to be friends with him... He didn't say too many sincere words, he let his emotions control him, and bit by bit he became a gloomy and unpleasant person.

-

Jiang Rong left the palace but did not contact him, Shen Yiheng completely gave up.He understood that his old friend, the younger brother he cared about, had changed into someone he didn't know, and he didn't want to have any more entanglements with him, so Shen Yiheng could only return to the border with loneliness.

The farther you go to the side, the prosperity ends, and the streets are empty and lonely, which is almost the complete opposite of the scene in the capital.

Passing the border, the only touch of singing and dancing is peaceful
