Chapter 187 Reasons for obsession with power

After the maid finished speaking, she got up with Ge Bu and Zhong Shui, who had already cleaned Xiao Lou Heng's face. Before leaving, she glanced at Xiao Lou Heng's pale face and continued:

"As for His Highness's medicinal diet, I have to trouble Your Highness to make it yourself. I have something extremely important at hand to do urgently."

Although the maid in front of her said respectful words, her eyes showed no respect for Xiao Lou Heng. Instead, she gave people the illusion that she was the master.

After listening to what the maid said, little Lou Heng didn't say anything out loud, but he coughed more violently. His face was a little bloodshot from the cough, and there were a lot of tears in Sanbai's eyes.

The whole look was so pitiful that Zuo Weiyue felt a little complicated.

Undoubtedly, the current situation of Xiao Louheng is very bad. It seems that it is not much better than that of Xiao Louhuai before. This should be something that Zuo Weiyue should be relieved and happy about, but she doesn't know why.

I'm a little bit unhappy.

The system noticed that her mood was a little low and asked in confusion: [Host, the worse Lou Heng's condition is, the less competitive he will be when competing for luck points with Lou Huai. Why do you feel unhappy? 】

Zuo Weiyue watched Xiao Lou Heng staggering down from the bed, almost falling to the ground several times while staying, and her conscience felt a little uneasy.

"It's not that I'm unhappy, it's just that I felt a little emotional when I saw that Lou Heng was just a child who had never done any bad things and was bullied by his servants when he was young."

To say that she thinks little Lou Heng is pitiful is not true. After all, no matter how weak he is now, in the future, he will indeed want Lou Huai's life again and again, and even once used her puppet body

The sword stabbed him to pieces.

She is not a holy mother who would soften her heart just because little Lou Heng was pitiful for a moment. It can only be said that she and Lou Heng have no fate and are destined to stand on opposite sides.

As long as the position is wrong, of course there is no way to simply comment on who is right and who is wrong.

So when watching Xiao Lou Heng about to fall, Zuo Weiyue did not choose to help him, but quietly watched him get up with difficulty.

After that, I followed him to a relatively dilapidated small kitchen and watched him struggle to pick up a kitchen knife that was larger than his two hands combined and cut up some lettuce that seemed to have been there for a long time.

During this process, Zuo Weiyue suddenly understood why the future Lou Heng would be so obsessed with power and status.

Because if he had these two things now, his life would not be so bad.

While Zuo Weiyue was sighing, Xiao Lou Heng also ended up cutting off his left index finger, burning off a few strands of his own hair, and making a pot of black "medicinal food".

He struggled to carry the pot of medicinal food that seemed to be edible to a wooden table. Then he endured the severe pain and applied some plant ash to the injured finger, and then simply bandaged it with a rag strip.

During the whole process, Xiao Lou Heng acted extraordinarily strong, but when he ate the pot of dark medicinal food, his eyes turned red unconsciously, and he burst into tears while stuffing food into his mouth.

"Mother, Heng'er misses you so much."

The boy's sobbing voice echoed softly in the small kitchen, making Zuo Weiyue's already complicated mood even more confusing.

Regarding Lou Heng's situation, Lou Huai told her that her biological mother was originally just the humblest maid in the palace, but one day she was bumped into by the drunken Lou Hanhai and took her into the dormitory, so Lou Heng was born.

It's just that Lou Heng's biological mother's status was too humble, and she gave birth to a prince at once, which made some other concubines in the palace very dissatisfied.

So it stands to reason that when Lou Heng turned five years old, she disappeared because of the palace's scheme, leaving Lou Heng alone in the world.

Four years later, I heard that Lou Heng was going to the City of Eternal Cold to recuperate due to a special disease he suffered from. It was nominally to recuperate, but in reality it was a different kind of exile from the emperor.

It wasn't until Lou Heng was sixteen years old that he accidentally saved the emperor's life and got the chance to become king. However, he still stayed in the Eternal Cold City and failed to return to the capital.

Overall, Lou Heng's first half of life was not smooth, and even a little bumpy.

But compared to Xiao Louhuai's previous situation, it's still a bit worse.

While thinking about it, Xiao Lou Heng also stopped sobbing. He quickly stuffed the medicinal food that looked hard to swallow, washed the dishes, chopsticks and pot, and wiped his tears.

Afterwards, to Zuo Weiyue's surprise, she found a bottle of potion with unknown medicinal properties, and took it with her into a nearby room that looked several times better than the private room he lived in.

.

He found a mahogany box in the house with ease. After opening it, he found a lot of good medicinal materials lying inside, similar to ginseng and the like. However, he did not touch any of them, but poured the transparent potions one by one.

After finishing it, he didn't forget to sort out the traces he left before.

Zuo Weiyue watched him find a place to hide again, as if waiting for someone to come over, so she waited with him out of curiosity.

After about a quarter of an hour, someone came into the house.

The person who came was the maid who was wearing a gray maid skirt before, but now she changed into a blue winter skirt that looked very expensive, and the red hairpin on her head hit her every step of the way.

On the fox fur cloak.

The maid's eyes were bright and she murmured, "Today I can have a good gamble with that little loser's money," and walked towards the place where the huge mahogany box was placed.

After that, she didn't even take a closer look at the fine ginseng she got. She hummed a little tune, found a pot and a small stove from the house, and started cooking it directly.

"I wonder what herbs the palace will send to this little waste next time. I'm a little tired of drinking this ginseng soup."

When Zuo Weiyue saw this, she still didn't understand. The good things that the emperor should have given to Xiao Lou Heng were all taken by the evil servant, the maid.

If this is the case, then the potion that Xiao Lou Heng poured on the ginseng just now, could it be...

Suspicious, Zuo Weiyue also noticed that after drinking the cooked ginseng soup, the maidservant frowned, and then her body began to twitch and tremble.

When she got to the back, she could clearly see white foam overflowing from the corners of her lips. She bounced her body a few times, and after a final struggle, there was no movement.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Lou Heng came out of the darkness, squatted beside the maid and tested her breathing. It seemed that he was sure that she was not breathing, and then he dragged her body to a pool in the corridor outside.

Seeing this scene, Zuo Weiyue's original complicated feelings towards Xiao Lou Heng disappeared instantly. She had forgotten that since Lou Heng was originally positioned as the male protagonist in the book, how could he be so easily bullied?

.

But after this trial, she discovered that Lou Heng was much more ruthless than she thought. Now he is only nine years old, and he can already kill people without blinking or panicking, let alone if he gets older.

It's time.

I can only say that everyone has their own difficulties.
