"Not all of them, probably... only Keye and I are like this." Leia lowered her head and smiled bitterly, and said: "When I was young, everyone wanted me and my eldest brother to cultivate a tacit understanding, but no one knew that in fact, my favorite The second brother is Kee. Because the eldest brother always has a straight face. Every time we meet, he always asks me how many secret books I have memorized? Have I improved my deduction skills? How many medicinal materials and medical cases have I learned? But Kee just It’s different. Every time he comes back from outside, he always brings me novel toys, tells wonderful stories, and secretly takes me out to play... So compared to my elder brother, I am closer to Keye."
Gu Mengmeng did not interrupt Leia's words, because what happened in Leia's past was like Pandora's box, full of unknowns.
If he was finally willing to open it, even if the thing that jumped out in the end was a demon, Gu Mengmeng would now have the courage to hug Leia and face it together.
Leia kissed Gu Mengmeng's forehead, as if only in this way, he had the courage to continue: "But it wasn't until he pushed me onto the bed of his father's beloved concubine, and then rushed in with his father and a group of elders, I just realized... I was plotted against by my favorite second brother. My father said in a rage that he wanted to kill me, but he cried bitterly and hugged his father's legs to plead for me, asking my father to spare me for the sake of father and son. One life. Banishment... became my fate. And he gained a good reputation as a loyal father who loved and protected his young brother."
Gu Mengmeng raised her hand, gently touched Leia's knotted eyebrows, and asked: "If something really happened between you and that beloved concubine, there must be a mark. Since you didn't do it, you should Explain it clearly to your father, as long as you check the body of that beloved concubine, the truth will be revealed."
Leia gently held Gu Mengmeng's little hand, put it to her lips and kissed it, and said: "Fool, it doesn't matter whether anything happened between me and that beloved concubine. What matters is that the nobles of the whole clan The elders and my father witnessed me lying disheveled on that beloved concubine's bed. This was enough to disgrace my father. As for what happened or didn't happen between me and her, no one would care."
Gu Mengmeng looked at the indifference in Leia's eyes and felt her heart ache.
As a biological father, face is more important than his son.
So twisted.
Leia sighed and continued: "His Ninth Prince, overnight he changed from the heir to the theocratic power of Siod to a symbol of shame that his adulterous father's beloved concubine should be devoured by the fire demon. I was expelled, whipped, and I was bullied, but I stubbornly wanted to come back and ask for an explanation. I shouted that I was unjust and that I had never done those things! But what I got in exchange was more cruel and violent expulsion. Later, outside Sioder, I I met Keye in the forest along the road. He came to me on purpose and brought my favorite food. He said... He just came to see what kind of destitute man he was in the past, who was loved by thousands of people. appearance."
Gu Mengmeng frowned, hugged Leia's arm distressedly, and said, "Is his heart twisted? Why would he hurt you like this?"
Leia smiled bitterly and said: "I also asked the same question, why he wanted to frame me. He only said to me at that time, "Who told you to be His Highness Ninth Prince?" At that time, I didn't understand what he meant, but now I don't Got it. The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade. "
