But even though Lan Shule's mother-in-law was completely crazy, she never hurt Lan Shule once.
Even sometimes when she wakes up, she will hold Lan Shule in her arms, reason with him, and teach him how to calligraphy and speech, for fear that he will really be tamed into a dog.
She would also cry to protect him and take care of him all night when Lan Shule bit the dog owners because of her and was beaten almost to death.
Although his mother-in-law is weak, she is brave and strong.⑧①ZW.????m
In fact, on the day he was picked up by the old emperor, Lan Shule had already had a premonition of what choice his mother-in-law would make.
But he left anyway.
Because he hopes that his mother-in-law can be freed.
Rather than for him, I am willing to be bound to this small place.
As long as he is around, he will always be his mother-in-law's reluctance and weakness.
"Luojia, don't be afraid, mother will always be by your side to protect you, so go forward boldly." (Luojia means treasure in Tibetan)
These were the last words his mother-in-law said to him.
At that time, Lan Shule was only eight years old.
But he was already carrying the life and blood of his mother and concubine on his way to revenge.
Is he crazy?
Crazy.
If he was not like a mad dog, biting people when he caught them, and biting them fiercely to death, how could he have found his way out on that thorny road, how could he have taken control of the military step by step, until he and his mother and concubine had suffered the same humiliation?
The day I return it.
Everyone thinks Lan Shule is heartless and heartless.
Because he has never worshiped the mother-in-law who protected him when he grew up, and he has never even killed those who insulted his mother-in-law.
Even the old emperor was deceived into thinking that he was just an emotionless, heartless mad dog.
But Gu Ruojiao knew that Lan Shule's only remaining humanity was in his mother and concubine.
Even when he talked about this, his expression was indifferent, as if he was telling someone else's story.
But Gu Ruojiao knew that those who had abused his mother and concubines all got their due end after he took over the power.
"Jiaojiao, do you think I'm dirty?"
His birth, the journey he has taken, and the things he has done are all made of blood and flesh.
Just like this doghouse.
Full of bloodshed and filth.
He grew up in a place like this.
What responded to him was Gu Ruojiao's little hand that slipped into his.
That hand is only half of his.
It's as if it's boneless, soft and soft, and it feels like it can be folded with just a little force.
Lan Shule's big hand shook violently.
After a moment, he held it tightly.
And his little princess boldly held his other hand.
I don’t know whether it’s because the temperature in early spring is still cold or because he’s revisiting his old place, but the man’s usually warm fingers feel a little cold.
But she still put his hand on her cheek and asked him to look at her.
Those clear and warm eyes looked seriously into his eyes.
"Lanshule, you are not dirty, so you don't have to listen to what those people say. If you must listen, then just listen to me."
Her voice was delicate and soft, but every word she spoke was as loud as a drum, hitting his heart with every beat.
"My man is never dirty. He is the cleanest and most beautiful in my eyes. If someone calls you dirty, just tell me and I will beat him up!"
Her words were sincere and passionate, like a silent confession.
It is obvious that this little princess is very timid, squeamish and picky about food, and even scratches her skin. She is so helpless that she actually wants to help him beat someone up.
It's really overestimating one's abilities.
But Lan Shule's heart couldn't help but come alive because of her words, and beat for her happily.
