Happy Spring Every Year

Chapter 205 The Cruel Truth

When I opened the silk cloth, I saw four unsigned letters.

Lu Yunzheng couldn't wait to pull out the letter from the first letter and unfold it.

When Lu Yunzheng's eyes quickly swept across the first line of words, they suddenly widened and his pupils contracted sharply, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.

His hands began to tremble involuntarily, and the letter paper in his hands made a slight rustling sound, echoing Lu Yunzheng's trembling.

His lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

After a long time, he finally turned his gaze away from the letter and looked at Gu Xizhi, who was sleeping soundly on the couch.

At this moment, his face was instantly distorted, and he looked like he wanted to laugh, but also like he wanted to cry.

A strange sound came from his throat, like a suppressed sob. He shuddered all over and quickly pulled out the other three letters.

Every word and sentence was exactly the same as what he had seen in his previous life. It was... it was the letter from Prince Xiang to him!

Lu Yunzheng was breathing heavily, his chest heaving violently, and his mind was in a mess at this moment.

His eyes wandered aimlessly around the room, filled with disbelief and panic, as if everything in the world had turned upside down in an instant, becoming strange and terrifying.

This letter is from Xizhi, who asked Mo Mama to keep it for many years. It should have been brought from the north to the capital.

So...so there really is a traitor who collaborates with the enemy and is Xizhi's father, the greedy, reckless and emotional right deputy general mentioned by Dad!

In this life, Xizhi is ready to hand the letter to Prince Rui, but in her previous life, the letter was in the hands of Prince Xiang.

So Xizhi in the previous life was just like him, always serving Prince Xiang?

But he is in the same boat with Prince Xiang. If Xizhi wants to help Prince Xiang, she can just tell him and give him the letter, instead of going around him and doing things for Prince Xiang privately!

What is the relationship between Xizhi and Prince Xiang? Is the child in her belly his?

This letter...Xizhi brought it with her when she arrived in Beijing? Why? Did Xizhi already hate the Shen family and want to destroy them at that time?

Was Xizhi sincere in her actions from the very beginning when she took the initiative to write to him, get close to him, and fall in love with him?

Who is he?

What does Xizhi want?

What is true?

Lu Yunzheng slowly collapsed to the ground, and the letter paper in his hand fell to the ground and scattered at his feet.

He couldn't understand all this, so he could only raise his hand to reach for the letter at his feet again. But as soon as his hand reached out, he suddenly withdrew it like crazy and scratched his head fiercely.

But the pain couldn't calm him down.

Two lifetimes...

He lived both his lives in confusion, becoming a puppet in the hands of others!

Where is he, is he really living again, or is it all just a dream?

Lu Yunzheng could no longer tell what was real and what was fake. He curled up unconsciously, hugged himself tightly with his arms, trying to find a little warmth and comfort from himself.

But at this moment, the emptiness and despair in my heart could not be filled.

The originally soft candlelight now became dazzling. Lu Yunzheng raised his hands to cover his eyes, and tears instantly burst out.

After an unknown amount of time, he staggered to his feet and walked to the couch.

Gu Xizhi was sleeping soundly under the effect of the knockout drug, with her long eyelashes cast on her eyes. Her already beautiful face looked even more pure and innocent, and she was completely unaware of anything in the outside world.

Lu Yunzheng's eyes were filled with pain and despair, and the beautiful memories he had spent with Gu Xizhi flooded back at this moment.

He once thought that Xizhi was the person who loved him the most in the world, and was also his comfort and support.

When he was reborn, the first thought in his mind was to stay with Xizhi forever, no matter the cost!

But all of this is a ridiculous scam!

And in this scam, his sincerity, his two lives, and...his father's life were trampled upon!

Did Xizhi already know the truth about her father's death? Or was Xizhi also involved?

Even...is this the idea Xizhi gave to Prince Xiang?

When his thoughts reached this point, Lu Yunzheng shook violently.

He looked down at Gu Xizhi, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and his eyes gradually became fierce.

That is the uncontrollable determination and hatred after discovering betrayal.

At this moment, Lu Yunzheng slowly stretched out his hand towards Gu Xizhi's slender neck, his fingers trembling slightly, as if filled with immense hatred.

However, the moment he touched Gu Xizhi's warm neck, those gentle scenes from the past came to his mind again, and Lu Yunzheng's hand suddenly froze and stopped.

The muscles on his face twitched slightly, veins bulged on his forehead, and his eyes were full of struggle and contradiction.

The overwhelming hatred after being deceived and the deep attachment to the past were entangled, almost tearing him to pieces.

The heavy breathing sounded particularly abrupt, rapid and disordered in the silent room.

Lu Yunzheng turned his head and looked at the letters scattered on the ground again. His heart suddenly ached, causing him to tighten his fingers instantly!

Cherish the branches... cherish the branches... cherish the branches!

Just as Lu Yunzheng's eyes turned red and his fingers tightened,

bang-

The crisp sound was like a thunderclap, instantly waking Lu Yunzheng from the brink of madness.

He withdrew his hand suddenly as if he was scalded, took a few steps back, and finally his legs went limp and he fell to the ground in despair.

From outside, Qingtao's muffled, reproachful voice could be heard faintly: "Hongtao, could you be more careful?"

Lu Yunzheng didn't care about anything anymore. He hugged his head with both hands, curled up in pain, and couldn't stop crying.

He just now...really almost killed Xizhi.

cluster--

The candle on the table burned out at this moment and went out.

The greenhouse suddenly became dark.

Lu Yunzheng closed his eyes tightly and disappeared into the dark night.

In this late night when no one knew about it, Lu Yunzheng's pride, self-esteem and sincerity were shattered one by one by the cruel truth.

A dry and desperate sob sounded in the darkness. It was Lu Yunzheng's soul... being tortured to death.

----

It was the hour of Mao, and it was still dark.

Jiang Xun walked out of the Anyang Marquis' Mansion, wearing a crimson official uniform, with steady steps, and was about to set off for court.

Jiang Xun has been busy with official duties these days, but he also wants to see Shen Jiasui during the day. He has been busy until late for several days in a row.

Nan Feng, who was standing by, rubbed his eyes and muttered, "Sir, you really have a body made of iron."

Jiang Xun glanced at Nan Feng and saw that he was yawning repeatedly. He said mercilessly, "Isn't he lighting the lamp again and reading those Jianghu and martial arts books?"

south wind:"......."

He was watching from the couch, how could he not hide this from the adults' eyes?

Nan Feng was about to make a few words of "argument" when his expression suddenly turned serious and he shouted coldly: "Who are you!"

I saw a man standing alone in the corner of the wall not far from the carriage.

His hair was a little messy, with a few strands lifted by the chilly morning wind and then drooping down weakly, making him look very dispirited.

Hearing the sound of the south wind, the man slowly raised his head, his face as pale as paper, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

Nanfeng saw the face clearly and was shocked.

Lu Yunzheng! ?

Nanfeng hurriedly turned around, only to see his young master walking towards Lu Yunzheng with a calm expression.
