How to dress like a prince

For several days in a row, Wei Yunzhi lay in bed, uttering nothing and thinking of nothing except eating and sleeping. It was not until the afternoon of the third day that he spoke his first words.

"Little Dongzi, change my clothes for me, I'm going out for a while."

"Your Highness, it's getting dark, so if you have anything to do at this time, let the slaves do it, huh?"

Wei Yunzhi shook his head, lifted the quilt and sat up, Xiaodongzi saw that his persuasion was fruitless, so he squatted down to put on Wei Yunzhi's shoes.

While combing his hair, Wei Yunzhi looked in the mirror, as expected, he looked like a ghost, his pale face was so thin that it was out of shape, Wei Yunzhi laughed at himself in his heart, he just felt that it was worthless, it was okay to be stupid.

It's time for some things to end.

Wei Yunzhi sat at the table, drank a bowl of medicinal porridge in a leisurely manner, and Shu Guo swallowed another candied fruit before calling Su Ye over.

"Your Highness?"

"There is something to be entrusted to you to do. It's not a big deal, but I still hope to do the best."

"Yes, His Highness will do as you please."

Wei Yunzhi walked in front, Xiao Dongzi walked slightly behind with the lantern in hand, there were already a few fireflies in the grass under the shadow of the tree, as expected, summer had been here for a long time, Wei Yunzhi almost missed it.

"Your Highness, will the servant go in with you?"

"No, wait for me here, it won't be too long."

"Yes."

Someone took out the key and opened the door, Wei Yunzhi followed that person into the darkness.

Li Mao felt in a daze that someone was slapping his face in a rather rude way, so he woke up slowly.

It's okay to pass out, but when I woke up, there was no pain anywhere in my body.His vision was also blurred. Li Mao knew that his face must be swollen and his eyes were covered with blood scabs. However, he knew the surrounding scene without looking—it was nothing but the dark and damp ground and walls covered with He has tasted all kinds of instruments of torture in the past few days.

In front of him was a pair of clean boots, a pair of boots that absolutely shouldn't be here, they were too clean, just standing here was already a sin.

Li Mao slowly raised his head and smiled with the corners of his mouth tilted.

"Why did you come? I'm not dead yet."

Wei Yunzhi almost exhausted all his strength to prevent himself from rushing up.

It was just an impulse to rush up, and he didn't know what he would do next if he really rushed up.Let go of Li Mao?Scrub him clean?Ask the imperial physician to treat him?Or, give him a good beating?Or, give him a treat...

All of this, he couldn't do it all.

Li Mao's face is too unfamiliar, Wei Yunzhi doesn't know whether it's because Li Mao was beaten so badly, his face was swollen too much or because he wasn't very familiar with that face at first, but he just felt that Li Mao shouldn't be like this As for what it should look like, Wei Yunzhi didn't know either.

Standing in front of Li Mao, Wei Yunzhi suddenly felt that many things he was sure about had now become uncertain.

Li Mao's upper body was covered with whip marks, burns and many scars that Wei Yunzhi couldn't distinguish. I don't know what caused it. It was densely packed and almost occupied all the skin. Originally, this body was clean and strong. , Carrying him on his back, he walked through many roads in the palace, big and small, long or short.

Li Mao was tied to the pillar with his head down, his face was full of disdain and gloom, until now, he still harbors resentment.Wei Yunzhi tried to find some familiar shadows in his eyes, but failed in the end.

"Haven't seen enough? You don't really like me, do you?" Li Mao spat blood to the side, "I was thinking, why are you so kind to me? I didn't know until you came here, huh..."

The jailer at the side heard this, his clothes were instantly soaked in cold sweat, without even thinking about it, he whipped his whip down.

"Stop!" Wei Yunzhi kicked over, but unfortunately he was a little powerless and almost fell, "Who told you to hit him? Get out!"

"Your Highness, this guy is full of nonsense, this servant will teach him a lesson for you!"

"Are you deaf, I tell you to get out!"

"Yes, Your Highness, please calm down, this servant will get lost!"

Finally, there were only the two of them left, but there were still many pairs of eyes staring at them, Wei Yunzhi didn't want to take care of those, his time was running out.

"How did you get the injury on your head?"

There was a large wound above Li Mao's left ear, and his scalp was even turned up a little bit. It can be said that his flesh and blood were bloody, and it was frightening to see.

"call taxi."

"Is it me?"

Li Mao didn't understand Wei Yunzhi's intentions, but he still answered him: "No, I called after I came in."

Wei Yunzhi nodded, relieved.

"Why are you asking this? You came here to ask me this?"

"No, I just don't remember hitting you that day, by the way."

Li Mao thought about it, yes, that afternoon, Wei Yunzhi smashed a piece of jade, and the jade shavings splashed all over the ground. He was still thinking at that time, luckily he wasn't the one who smashed it, otherwise he would have died long ago.

"Then why don't you hit me? Hit me on the head, so many lives will be yours."

Wei Yunzhi glanced at Li Mao, and his voice became cold: "At that time, you were still Li Mao."

Li Mao laughed again, recently he laughed more than all the years before, but Wei Yunzhi hated this kind of smile, it was full of sarcasm and disdain, it was not Li Mao's shy and gentle smile.

"Are you serious that day?" Wei Yunzhi lifted his collar a little, the black fingerprints showed the determination of the person who did it at that time.

"Yes, I wish I could eat you!"

Li Mao gritted his teeth and uttered these words, bloody hatred, every word, shocked Wei Yun's back.

"why……"

There is no more sad question in this world than "why". I clearly understand it all, but I just refuse to believe it. I have to get a result, otherwise I will never let it go.

"Why? Why do you say?"

Li Mao's eyes were red, as if fire was about to burst out in the next second, burning Wei Yunzhi to ashes.

"You killed my grandmother, and made her die poorly! You killed my parents, and made me an orphan since I was a child, with no one to rely on! You killed my whole family, and it's not enough to let me linger at your feet. You are a Bodhisattva and a saint! You also killed Mei Lan, such a kind girl, she was tortured, and finally she couldn't bear it anymore, and bit off her own tongue! You still ask me why? Wei Yunzhi, I still want to I ask you, why? Why? Why are you still alive when they are all dead? Why don’t you die?!”

Wei Yunzhi was speechless, he just wanted an answer and a conclusion, how could this happen?The truth is always imperfect, everyone knows this truth, Wei Yunzhi has already realized, he is ready, but, it is too cruel, too shameful, too dirty...

"So, you've always thought this way for so many years?" Wei Yunzhi's legs and feet were flimsy, and his hands were propped on the wooden stake that tied Li Mao, which brought them closer than ever before.Wei Yunzhi's nostrils were filled with the stench of blood, sour sweat, and rotten flesh, but he didn't care anymore, these were nothing compared to the truth.

"That's right, I want to kill you even in my dreams!" Li Mao's face was always smiling, as if he was extremely happy. Seeing Wei Yunzhi crying, he felt relieved, "Do you think you have been so happy all these years?" Why did I experience so many unlucky things, God doesn’t have so much free time, I did it all. I just want to see you die, nothing else, hahahaha..."

Wei Yunzhi moved closer, his eyes were too close to the point where he could hardly see clearly: "Li Mao, let me ask you one last time, have you never regarded me as a brother in all these years?"

"Brother? Are you a pig? Who treats you like a brother, idiot!"

"……I see."

Wei Yunzhi's body became stiff, and he moved closer to Li Mao's shoulder inch by inch, and finally stopped in his ear, using the same low voice that Li Mao pinched his neck that day, but it was the calmest and gentlest tone , spit out one word at a time, as heavy as a thousand catties, but so light that you can't even catch the last sound.

"Anyway, thank you for all these years."

Wei Yunzhi let go of his hand, stepped back a few steps, and quietly looked at the man in front of him who was in a state of embarrassment but refused to admit defeat, as if looking at a cold corpse.
