However, Bei Mingchen was far from the only one who was worried. Shuojin also lived a life of fear outside the palace. When Shuojin was still very young, he had experienced the feeling of being chased many times.
In order to protect himself, Shuo Jin could only practice martial arts desperately. When other children were still acting coquettishly in their parents' arms, Shuo Jin did not cry or fuss, he just practiced hard. Even if his back ached, he did not complain.
Because he knows that he must become a strong man. Only in this way can he protect himself and the people he wants to protect.
However, when Bei Mingchen kept complaining, Shuojin did not interrupt Bei Mingchen. He just sneered and continued to listen to him telling his difficulties.
"This is a nightmare I will never forget."
That was Bei Mingchen's nightmare, his eternal nightmare. This is a fact that cannot be erased. It has been deeply imprinted in Bei Mingchen's mind since childhood. Even now, when Bei Mingchen dreams in the middle of the night,
When I see those scenes, I will still break into a cold sweat and wake up from my dream.
Nightmare? But, is this just Bei Mingchen’s nightmare? This is also Shuojin’s nightmare.
"But do you know? I was the one who died for you in the end!" Shuojin said angrily to Bei Mingchen.
Shuojin "died" twice, both because of Bei Mingchen.
The first time was when he was born. Shuojin endured all the poisons and narrowly escaped death. The second time was when he was ten years old...
At that time, Shuojin was very happy at the beginning of the period because his mother-in-law finally came out of the palace to see him. But he never thought that that day would be the last time that mother and son would see each other.
The mother and son didn't say a few words before a large number of pursuers came after them and wanted to kill them.
So they ran and ran, running as hard as they could. But, unfortunately, they finally ran to a cliff, a dead end. Once there, they were really desperate, and the pursuers quickly caught up with them.
Although Concubine Lan knew that they had no way out, Concubine Lan still chose to stand in front of Jin'er resolutely.
And Shuo Jin watched his mother-in-law die under the knife of the bad guys. The weak Shuo Jin was unable to resist at all.
You must know that Shuo Jin was only a ten-year-old child at the time, and he watched his mother and concubine die in front of him, and she died by being pierced through the heart by thousands of swords.
The blood-soaked scene scared Shuojin to the point of being stunned. At that time, Shuojin couldn't even cry, and he couldn't even breathe.
At that time, Shuojin even forgot about her situation and the vast abyss behind her. Shuojin was so frightened that she took two steps back and accidentally fell down, falling into the bottomless cliff.
…
On that day, Shuojin vaguely remembered that the bad guys were talking about "Fifth Prince", and even the last name of his mother-in-law was "Chen'er". Obviously, everyone thought that the person who died was the Fifth Prince Bei Mingchen.
…
Even though so many years have passed since this incident, every time late at night, a bloody person will still flash in Shuojin's mind, standing in front of him. That person's eyes look so firm, and there is so much in his eyes.
Full of tears, he looked at himself kindly.
Hearing Shuojin's words, Bei Mingchen was also very surprised. He stood aside blankly, listening to Shuojin talk about the incident. Bei Mingchen originally thought that Shuojin didn't understand anything and was living a miserable life outside.
He was so free and unrestrained, but he didn't expect that Shuo Jin would also be so worried all night long, and he also had those thrilling nightmares.
"Because of this, you should understand the intrigues involved. You should understand that as long as you don't fight or grab, there will only be a dead end, right?"
If this is the case, then this matter should be much easier to handle. Although Shuo Jinren is not in the palace, he should have a deep understanding of the intrigues in the palace.
This time Bei Mingchen spoke directly to Shuojin.
"Yes, I have a deep understanding of it. I also understand how difficult it has been for you these years. I know how tolerant you have been living these years, so I help you at all costs."
Shuojin said without hesitation, although Bei Mingchen's appearance just now made him uncomfortable, but he completely agreed with what Bei Mingchen said.
"Help me?" Bei Mingchen sneered, his eyes unremitting and cold. "You can die for me once! You can die for me twice! Do you have to die for me next time?"
Bei Mingchen walked towards him step by step and spoke to Shuojin in a questioning tone. Every time he walked forward for a certain distance, Bei Mingchen said a sentence harshly. Every time he said a word, his brows furrowed.
A little tighter.
"None of us need to die for the other! We will all live well!" Shuo Jin said firmly.
Shuojin is no longer the lamb that was left to be slaughtered, and of course, neither is Bei Mingchen.
"Don't be so harsh. It's been so long, and until now, we don't even know who is behind it. Isn't our fate still in the hands of others?"
Bei Mingchen snorted coldly and said to Shuojin, his silly brother is still so innocent and arrogant.
"Don't worry, I will definitely find out the truth. And I will never leave my fate in the hands of others."
Shuojin's fists clenched subconsciously, his tone remained firm, and there was a cold and fierce look in his eyes.
"Okay, I believe you. In that case, what are you still thinking about? What are you still hesitating about? Let's complete this arduous task together and complete our grand plan." Bei Mingchen said again.
After feeling Shuojin's firm attitude, Bei Mingchen felt very relieved. Fortunately, Shuojin also cared about the truth back then and his own destiny.
From this point of view, they should be brothers of the same mind.
However, it was obvious that Bei Mingchen still misunderstood Shuojin's meaning.
"Haha, an arduous task? I don't know what kind of grand plan you are talking about! Is it to sacrifice innocent people and complete your royal hegemony at all costs?"
Shuojin really wanted to investigate the truth of that year and avenge his mother and concubine, but he could still distinguish between good and evil. He just wanted to solve those problems in his own way. Shuojin hated those people, even more.
Become that kind of person yourself.
"We have endured for so many years, just to annihilate them in one fell swoop? Why, after doing so much, you regret it now? Do you want to back down at this critical moment?" Bei Mingchen stepped forward.
After a few steps, Shuojin was asked a series of questions again.
"Bei Mingchen! Are you really that cruel?" After hearing those words, Shuojin couldn't help but sigh.
"There is no way back from these things. I must be ruthless and decisive enough in doing things! I must not be merciful to my enemies."
Saying that, Bei Mingchen slowly closed his eyes.
"Bei Mingchen, how can you be so vicious? Is your heart really made of stone? Has it hurt so many people? Does your heart really not hurt?"
Shuojin shook his head slightly at Bei Mingchen and couldn't help but sigh a few words. These words were not only meant for Bei Mingchen, but also for himself. At this moment, he only felt that he was very grateful to Bei Mingchen.
Chen was a little disappointed.
"Even my mother and concubine died because of you, so what shame do you have to say that I am evil?"
Speaking of being sinister and vicious, Bei Mingchen is not willing to admit that he is that kind of person. After all, how can Bei Mingchen compare to the young master of Huanqing Pavilion who is feared in the world?
"That incident was just an accident. Bei Mingchen, you are simply unreasonable!"
Shuo Jin clenched his fists and said angrily. Every word and every sentence was bitten so hard by Shuo Jin.
He did not expect that Bei Mingchen would choose to poke his pain again, and Bei Mingchen's words were so ruthless, and he really had no concern for Shuojin's feelings.
"It's just an accident, haha, it's an accident again." Bei Mingchen laughed wildly, his eyes showing arrogance and a hint of madness. "Tell me, haven't there been many accidents in the past five years?"
If it happens once or twice, it can be regarded as an accident. However, if it happens like this year after year, how can it be regarded as an accident?
In the five years since Shuojin found herself again, there have been many accidents, and their plans have gone awry again and again.
Especially in recent years, Shuo Jin has violated his orders again and again, failed to act according to the plan, and repeatedly touched his bottom line.
Accident?
Hearing this, Shuo Jin didn't say anything more, but just listened silently. It had to be said that there had been many accidents in the past five years, and Shuo Jin had to admit that some things were indeed caused by him.
However, he is also trying his best to make up for it and doing his best for Bei Mingchen. He is also trying hard to find out the truth of the year and bring to justice those who have hurt them and framed them.
At this moment, Shuojin just stared at a certain direction without saying a word. His expression looked very serious, but it was not as fierce as before.
"Don't worry, I will definitely find out the truth in my own way, and I will never let my mother-in-law die in vain."
After a long time, Shuojin said slowly. His tone was still so confident.
"That's all, Bei Mingjin, tell me, how are you going to find out the truth?"
Bei Mingchen didn't understand why his brother was like this. His plan was obviously so seamless and perfect, but why did he always resist.
Hearing those words, Shuojin lowered his head and said nothing.
"Oh, by the way, Bei Mingjin, you can just take off your mask and tell them that you are the sixth prince of the current dynasty, or tell them that you are the fifth prince of the current dynasty. They will believe it. They will definitely
I will believe you."
At this moment, Bei Mingchen no longer acted angry. He spoke to Shuojin in a very normal tone.
Bei Mingchen slowly described those things while walking in the room, as if all this was a plan he had planned for a long time.
After hearing these words, Shuojin suddenly raised his head and looked blankly at Bei Mingchen in front of him. As Bei Mingchen moved, he also moved his eyes.
"You can easily have everything I have, and you can even completely replace me."
His tone sounded so calm, as if everything he said was serious. Even Shuo Jin, who knew Bei Mingchen best, believed what he said.
PS: The two brothers follow each other like a shadow.
