With a "bang", his forehead hit the bluestone floor tiles heavily.Blood trails meander, and the rust-like smell is sickening.

"Do you want to wear it or not?"

Chen Wangzhi wanted to get up, but while struggling, he grabbed his hair with one hand and forced him to raise his face. Chen Xuan's face was distorted with anger, "Put it on."

Blood blurred his vision, and his clothes and hair accessories were scattered at his feet.

"No." He stubbornly refused.

"Monster..." Chen Xuan roared, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault!"

The fists rained down on his body, Chen Wangzhi curled up, and received more than a dozen kicks in his lower abdomen. He bit his lip in pain, warning himself not to groan.

"...It hurts." Chen Wangzhi opened his mouth and woke up suddenly.

Something in the belly kicked, once, again.It was the "child", the father was right, he was a monster.

The fetus moved, as if turning over, the strange feeling made Chen Wangzhi feel even colder, he curled up and hid in the corner, don't move, he pressed his protruding abdomen, don't move, why are you still alive?The children born of monsters must also be monsters.

Perhaps the induction was real, and the kicking and flipping stopped.Chen Wangzhi breathed a sigh of relief, he felt cold, cold sweat soaked through his pajamas, and Chen Xuan's cursing still lingered in his ears.

"You're going to kill us all sooner or later—"

It was night, the ever-burning lamp was dim, the candle light flickered, and footsteps came.

"Who," Chen Wangzhi gasped, "Get out! Get out!"

The figure stood behind the screen, listening to his powerless roar. "Get lost," Chen Wangzhi was extremely tired, "don't come here..."

"Ninth brother."

"Go away!"

"Ninth Brother," a woman's mournful call came from behind the screen, "Ninth Brother, don't you remember me?"

The voice was very familiar, Chen Wangzhi held his head and thought, who is it——

"Ninth Brother, it's me, I'm Chang'an," Chen Anzhi couldn't hold back anymore, he turned around the screen, "Ninth Brother! You don't even recognize me? I'm Chang'an, your little sister..."

Chang'an, Chen Wangzhi raised his eyes, his forehead hair was soaked with sweat, he saw a woman in a palace costume in a trance, her cheeks were wet with tears, "Ninth Brother, Ninth Brother, look at me, I am Chang'an, are you really Can not remember?"

"Chang'an," Chen Wangzhi murmured, "You are Chang'an?"

Chen Anzhi cried and lay down on the couch, "Ninth brother, it's me, what, what—look at it," she pulled off the gold jewelry on her forehead, revealing the long and narrow red mark, "Look at it, remember Me?"

Chen Wangzhi was stunned for a while, "Chang'an? You are, are you the third sister?"

"It's me," Chen Anzhi said with tears streaming down his face, "Ninth Brother, it's me, do you remember when I was a child I loved swallows the most? You wanted to climb up to the eaves and catch one for me... I don't like female workers, I always prick my fingers, The second sister helped me embroider my purse, you praised her for her dexterity, and said that the flowers I embroidered didn't turn into flowers, and the leaves didn't turn into leaves..."

"You are Chang'an..." Chen Wangzhi wanted to hold her hand, raised his arm, but suddenly saw his ugly abdomen, he couldn't help shivering and shrinking back. "Changan," he choked up, "don't cry, let me take a good look at you."

Chen Anzhi raised his face, and his movements were exactly the same as when he was a child. "Very good," Chen Wangzhi said, nodding repeatedly, "My little sister has grown up, very good."

"Ninth brother," Chen Anzhi opened his mouth, tears rolled down again, "I have missed you so much for so many years."

"Me too..." Chen Wangzhi closed his eyes in pain, "I—"

"I thought you were dead!" Chen Anzhi suddenly let out a cry of grief. She climbed onto the couch and hugged Chen Wangzhi's legs regardless, "Ninth brother, I thought you were dead, everyone thought you were dead! My night Went to sleep crying at night, woke up crying, I miss you... without you, I am terrified! I..."

Chen Wangzhi's heart felt like a knife when he heard his sister's crying.His physique is different from ordinary people, his biological mother came from a humble background, Chen Xuan is the least fond of among the princes.Several imperial brothers never looked at him directly, only two younger sisters regarded him as an elder brother, which was the only family affection he could feel in this deep palace.Chang Ping is slightly taller and has an introverted personality. Chang An is young and lively. He follows behind like a little tail and calls him "Ninth Brother" inarticulately. "Sorry," Chen Wangzhi tried to pull her into his arms, but his bulky body hindered him again, "...Ninth brother can't protect you anymore."

"This is not to blame Brother Nine." Chen Anzhi choked, "How could Brother Nine be blamed..."

The quiet room is silent, and the candlelight flickers like a ghost. "Brother Ninth," Chen Anzhi forced a smile, "I, we can finally meet, I shouldn't just cry about myself. What's there to cry about?" Tears were still on her face, and she couldn't help but see another tear in her eyes. Sour, "Ninth brother, I forgot to tell you, I—"

Chen Wangzhi said softly, "What happened to your leg?"

Chen Anzhi lowered his face, and put his face on his lap as he did when he was a child, "At that time, news came from outside... Xiliang's army is coming, and the capital is in chaos."

Chen Wangzhi hated, "Yu Wenche."

"I hate Yu Wenche, but my legs have nothing to do with him." Chen Anzhi sighed slightly, "Father has long been insane, suspicious, and everyone in the world wants to kill him... He took the sword and met him in the palace. People were cut, those who ran fast ran away, those who ran slowly—” She recalled the past, and tightened her arms in fear, “I ran slowly, and the second sister took me, run, run... …There were so many people, I didn’t know who tripped me and fell down. My father saw me, so he raised his sword and slashed. The second sister was screaming… My leg was punctured, and I passed out from the pain. etc. When I woke up again, the second sister was lying on top of me, and she was already terribly cold."

"Ninth brother," Chen Anzhi murmured dreamily, "I have never touched a dead man's hand. I held my sister's hand, and I cried and screamed, but she closed her eyes and refused to wake up. Her hands were so cold, It's so cold and hard. The second sister's hands are obviously soft, very soft, very warm. She will help me embroider my purse, comb my hair, and make custard for me..."

Chen Wangzhi shook his shoulders, and every word Chen Anzhi said seemed to stab him in the chest, "You have suffered. Sorry, I couldn't save you, at that time, at that time—"

"I don't blame you, Brother Ninth," Chen Anzhi shook his head slowly, "I can't help it... Later, I met Concubine Xiao Gui, and she didn't die. We fled to a nunnery, and I listened to the nuns in the nunnery. Saying that this is fate, it is predestined, and no one can change it."

"It's fine if you're still alive." The wound under the collarbone was throbbing with pain, and Chen Wangzhi was taken aback suddenly, "Chang'an, are you married?"

"Ninth brother, I'm married to Xie Yuan." Chen Anzhi hesitated, "It's the one from Xie's family."

"Xie Yuan? I remember you were originally betrothed to him?" Chen Wangzhi hesitated, "Is he still alive? Yes, it is him, he is by Yu Wenche's side... That Xie Yuan is him?"

Chen Anzhi nodded slightly, "It's him."

"You're married, so I'm relieved." Chen Wangzhi regained his composure, "I don't want to see you again, brother Jiu will die without regret."

"You don't want to die." Chen Anzhi became nervous, glanced at Chen Wangzhi's stomach, and quickly looked away.Chen Wangzhi smiled faintly, "You can see me like this."

"I," Chen Anzhi sat up, wiped his face carelessly, "no matter what Brother Nine looks like, Brother Nine is Brother Nine."

Chen Wangzhi said, "Yu Wenche hurt me so much, I just want to kill him. But I lost all my martial arts, and I am useless. Revenge is terrible."

Chen Anzhi held his hand, "Ninth brother, I also hate Yu Wenche. But I don't want you to die... I have no relatives in this world. If you die, who else can I go to?"

Chen Wangzhi said, "He destroyed the country and slaughtered the city. Since I can't kill him, I can't live on."

"He didn't!" Chen Anzhi hurriedly explained, "He is very annoying. I begged him to let you go several times before, but he refused. He brought a large army to annex our country of Qi, but he didn't massacre the city... Really, look, I am alive, Concubine Xiao is alive, we—”

"Chang'an" Chen Wangzhi coldly shook off his sister's hand, "You are here to help him persuade me, aren't you?"
