Grandpa Chen Sheng, who loved him the most in the past, is now standing in front of him in such a mess, with almost no trace of his former majesty.
He really didn't have to be like the people in the other two dungeons, crowding for food and completely losing their appearance as a human being.
But he actually spent ten years in this boundless darkness. He lost his perception of time and lived just for the sake of living.
Jiang Huan looked at Chen Sheng in disbelief, not wanting to believe the situation in front of him.
Chen Sheng obviously died of illness ten years ago, and Jiang Guo also sent people to attend his funeral and deliver the funeral ceremony.
He is the real one who no longer exists in this world.
"Don't you recognize me?" Chen Sheng smiled bitterly and stroked the corner of his clothes, but the hand he originally stretched out shrank behind his back, "I am no longer the same as before. I am a sinner now, and now I am atonement for my sins here.
."
Chen Ruyi responded categorically, "Indeed, you are a guilty person, and you cannot touch Xiao Huan at all."
Chen Sheng smiled coquettishly and took a step back. Jiang Huan looked at Chen Ruyi in confusion, as if she didn't quite understand why he wanted to speak to such an extent.
But Chen Ruyi had no intention of staying here any longer. He took Jiang Huan's hand and turned to leave.
It wasn't until he reached the door that he finally looked back at Chen Sheng.
Chen Sheng just looked at the two of them with special nostalgia, his gaze couldn't be moved away at all, as if he was glued to them.
Jiang Huan could feel Chen Sheng's urgent desire to leave here, but this urgency was also blocked by this door and would never be realized.
Jiang Huan held back her breath until she returned to the dilapidated hut. She couldn't help but ask, "Why did you lock Chen Sheng here?"
Chen Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief when she smelled the fresh air again, and felt the bright sunshine, and her cold face disappeared completely.
It seemed that the look just now was his mask.
"The first level of prison holds criminals who have committed crimes other than murder, while the second level contains criminals who have committed crimes of murder. As for the third level..." Chen Ruyi paused.
After a pause, a wry smile appeared.
The setting sun shone on his profile, and his face, which Jiang Huan thought was cold and cruel just now, was extremely gentle, as if he had embraced the setting sun into his heart.
The boy Jiang Huan was familiar with and liked was back in front of him again, still looking the same as before.
"The late emperor who once committed regicide is imprisoned there." Chen Ruyi's voice became softer. The moment these words came out of his mouth, Jiang Huan was stunned.
She never expected that there would be such a reason.
"Regicide?" Thinking of Chen Yan's unfulfilled look, Jiang Huan seemed to be able to understand why Chen Sheng did this.
"He tried to kill his father, and when he found out, he was sentenced to death. However, because Chen Shengde was highly respected at that time, his father did not want to publicize the matter. He just announced that he had died of illness, and then sent people
Chen Sheng was executed secretly."
Chen Ruyi's voice paused, but his eyes became a little dim.
At this moment, Jiang Huan knew that what Chen Ruyi had revealed just now might not be his original intention.
What he wants to be, what he wants to show, may be another mask.
"Did you see it?" Chen Ruyi asked with a wry smile.
Jiang Huan looked at Chen Ruyi's appearance and had an idea in his mind.
No matter which country he is in, even if the late emperor was admired by many people, once he commits the crime of regicide, it will be difficult to be forgiven.
Even being stripped of his title and reduced to a slave for the rest of his life is the lightest punishment.
Chen Ruyi trapped him in this secret room. Although he looked embarrassed, he still never turned into an animal like others. This was the best reflection of Chen Ruyi's protection for him.
"My secret room is known to the royal family. They will send people to check the situation here from time to time to ensure that Chen Sheng is playing a good role as a criminal. In fact, there is nothing there except my key.
People can open that door. It is basically impossible for them to kill Chen Sheng." Chen Ruyi said lightly.
Although his voice was soft, he said every word firmly without any hesitation.
This is still the Chen Ruyi that Jiang Huan knows. She is always cold-blooded and ruthless on the outside, but in her heart, she is the Chen Ruyi with gentle blood flowing.
Jiang Huan smiled and sighed, she narrowed her eyes and held Chen Ruyi's hand with her backhand.
The moment the two crossed their fingers, they seemed to be able to communicate with each other.
Jiang Huan suddenly realized that Chen Du's name had been completely erased from his heart.
How much I hate the country's subjugation in my previous life, how much I love Chen Ruyi now.
By the time Jiang Huan noticed this, he was already deeply involved and unable to extricate himself.
"Chen Ruyi, what do you think Chen Guoguo will look like when we get married?" Jiang Huan smiled brightly. The smiles on his face were so stacked that it made people's hearts beat.
For Chen Ruyi, Jiang Huan is the person who can dye his life into brilliant colors and the softest light deep in his heart.
Chen Ruyi wanted to keep this light in his heart, and wanted his little princess not to be discovered by anyone.
But Chen Ruyi also understands that the more he values and what he owns, he wants everyone to see it together.
"At that time, Chen Guo should have covered the city with flowers. I want this place to bloom with the most dazzling luster. Only in this way can I be the most worthy of my little princess." Chen Ruyi said.
Just raising Jiang Huan's hand high, he had never had such a bright smile before, until Jiang Huan appeared in his life, until...
"My little princess, you are my treasure, and you should become the treasure of Chen State. I want the people of Chen State to know that although you are the princess of Jiang State, you are also the crown prince of Chen State."
Chen Ruyi spoke solemnly every word, and the look in his eyes was something Jiang Huan had never seen before.
Three points gentle, seven points firm.
Rather than answering his own question, Jiang Huan felt that Chen Ruyi seemed to be making a promise to herself.
Jiang Huan thought he would never listen to the promises in this world.
The promises she made in the past brought her nothing but disaster.
But this time, Jiang Huan still wanted to trust the man in front of him again and give his heart to him in this life.
"Chen Ruyi, we agreed, if you don't do it, I will beat you up."
