The past life is cold and the present life is warm

While Shao Zhiqi was still struggling, he was found by people sent by He Lanxi.The visitor told him that the Protector's wife had been released by the Protector, and that he was being sent here to tell him to go home quickly, otherwise the Protector would not let him enter the house again in the future.

As soon as Shao Zhiqi heard this, he immediately gave up all his plans.He planned so much just to get his father to recognize him and everyone to recognize him, instead of living in the shadow of Shao Zhikan forever.So he quickly packed up his things and rushed back to the Duke Protector's Mansion with the visitor.

But what he never expected was.As soon as he walked into the gate of the Protector's Mansion, he was immediately taken down by the guards guarding there.He didn't even have a chance to struggle, so his mouth was gagged and thrown directly into the dungeon of their Protector's Mansion.

At this moment, he thought that he had been deceived. His mother had probably confessed her crime. Her father had caught her, and she even dragged the person he wanted to back him up with.After all, she always liked to blame others.

But he was thrown into the dungeon like that, no matter how long it took, no matter who asked.He felt like he was so hungry that he was almost dizzy and almost couldn't hold on any longer.The dungeon door that had been closed was finally opened.

A guard moved a stool opposite him.Soon I heard footsteps approaching.Then someone sat on the stool.The man looked at Shao Zhiqi who huddled up and said nothing for a long time.When Shao Zhiqi thought he might just watch him starve to death, the man finally spoke.

As soon as the man opened his mouth, Shao Zhiqi recognized him immediately.It was none other than his father, Lord Protector.He groaned and struggled to sit up on his knees.It was a little hard to hear what his father was saying.

Lord Protector opened his mouth and said a few words when he saw Shao Zhiqi unsteadily sitting up on his knees. At this moment, he suddenly felt that the child did not seem to be completely exhausted. Looking at him, he was so hungry that there were stars in his eyes. Apparently, the Protector did not continue, but waved his hand and motioned for his men to bring some food over.

After Shao Zhiqi knelt down, he waited for a long time and found that the Lord Protector had stopped talking again, and was about to lie down again.A faint aroma of food wafted over.It floated over vaguely.His stomach growled unsatisfactorily.He really wanted to pounce on it and have a big meal right now, but he really didn't have the energy.He didn't even have the strength to speak anymore.

When the food was brought, the Protector did not ask anyone to immediately move it in front of Shao Zhiqi. Instead, he continued to say: "Qi'er, as a father, I won't beat around the bush with you. You don't dare to come back because you know that your mother has treated your brother badly." Let’s talk about the poisoning. Tell your mother in detail what she did, and you can eat this meal right away. After you are full, your father will let you out."

Shao Zhiqi was so hungry that not only were stars in his eyes, but his ears even felt buzzing from time to time, but he still heard clearly what the Protector was saying.It seems that my father did not find any evidence of my mother in the end. The person my mother found was indeed a powerful person.

But he was really hungry. He was only a 12-year-old boy. In the past 12 years, he had never suffered such suffering or received such inhuman treatment.The aroma of the food was too tempting to him.

He couldn't help but swallow, and kept struggling in his heart. He didn't want to betray his mother, but he was really hungry.

Seeing that Shao Zhiqi didn't answer immediately, the Protector felt a little satisfied in his heart. At least this boy still had a conscience.Even if he felt like he was about to starve to death, he would not immediately betray his mother for food.

But the Protector was still waiting there silently. He knew that with Shao Zhiqi's character, he wouldn't be able to hold on for too long.As he thought, after struggling for a moment without a stick of incense, Shao Zhiqi finally hesitantly told everything he knew.

He told the Lord Protector exactly what He Lanxi had said to him that day without adding any exaggeration, or even thinking about it.

The Protector himself thought that this time he had just caught evidence that He Lanxi poisoned Shao Zhikan, but he never expected that he would also hear about his wife's life and death.This incident shook him to his core.

He always thought that his first wife had hidden wounds because she was fighting abroad.In addition, the child had a difficult delivery and suffered massive postpartum bleeding, and his body was too weak to get through it.But he never thought that his wife's death was also planned.

And this person was actually in his house, and he even had a child with her, which made him feel extremely disgusted.

Maybe he was just a little disappointed with Shao Zhiqi in the past, but at this moment, when he looked at Shao Zhiqi, he thought that he was He Lanxi's child.It actually made him feel disgusted.

But after all, the Protector is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for many years.He quickly controlled his emotions.He sneered and waved his hand to have the food brought to Shao Zhiqi.And asked someone to feed him the rice one bite at a time.

After seeing that Shao Zhiqi had eaten and drank enough, he ordered others to send Shao Zhiqi back to his yard.Allowed to leave without permission.

After these instructions were given, the Protector stood up to leave.Shao Zhiqi, who had eaten and drank enough, was lying on the floor of the dungeon, rubbing his belly.It's not that I ate too much or that I ate very well.After all, he had been hungry for a long time and the Protector did not dare to feed him something too greasy or difficult to digest.I was afraid that he would eat too much at one time and choke to death.

When Shao Zhiqi saw that the Protector was about to leave, he propped himself up and sat up cross-legged.Looks a lot more energetic.But his attitude was no longer as respectful as before.He even said with a playful smile: "Father asked me if I am happy to hear the evidence of my mother's crime. Can you divorce my mother so that the bitch in the yard can take over?"

The Protector himself had his back to Shao Zhiqi, but after hearing what he said, he turned around and walked to him and squatted down in front of him. He looked at him with dangerous eyes and said, "Qier, I know you feel uncomfortable after betraying your mother. , but you don’t need to use such words to irritate me. Wrong, it is wrong after all. And don’t forget who brought you up since you were a child. Don’t forget just because of who you ended up with. The grace of upbringing in the past.”

After saying this, the Protector stood up and wanted to leave.Shao Zhiqi spoke again: "Is it because my father is asking me this question because he has tried hard for so long but failed to find any evidence or evidence against my mother?"

His words made the Protector take action.
