It's hard to guess the concubine: the black-bellied prince chases his wife

Chapter 593
When she went to Miaojiang with Zhonglici, Ye Ziyi knew a little about Zhonglici's past.But now, seeing Zhong Lici's gloomy appearance for the past few days, she knew that he must have been affected, so Ye Ziyi suddenly regretted that she should have brought Mo Yi here.

Maybe even Zhong Lici himself didn't realize that his love for Mo Yi was the first time in his life that he opened his heart to accept someone so openly.For some reason, Ye Ziyi suddenly felt that if a brave little girl like Mo Yi fell in love with Zhong Lici, the two of them would definitely have a different spark in the future!
Although looking at Zhong Lici didn't seem to be in a good mood, Yu Muheng and Ye Ziyi didn't intend to ask more questions.On the other hand, Zhong Lici took a deep breath, as if he was brewing some emotions, and turned to look at Yu Muheng with some embarrassment: "I... indeed... I can't control my emotions."

When he said that, Ye Ziyi noticed that his fists were clenched tightly all the time, and he never relaxed at all.He looked extremely sensitive and tense, his shoulders were tightly tucked, and his teeth were always clenched, as if he was enduring something.

Since he is willing to open his heart, Yu Muheng and Ye Ziyi are naturally happy to be the objects of his confidant.Patting him on the shoulder again, Yu Muheng's tone was very kind: "If you have something, just say it, don't hold it in your heart, it's all right now, isn't it?"

On the other hand, Zhong Lici shook his head, lowered his head, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, the shadow that had been covering his heart before, but now there are signs of it expanding: "At that time... I was just like them... Every day, I accept things that I can't control...Sleep, get up, eat, take medicine...everything is decided by others."

Seeing the unstoppable sweat on Zhong Lici's forehead, Ye Ziyi was also startled, and then felt his pulse.The pulse condition was normal, which made Ye Ziyi heave a sigh of relief.It seems that he is so unable to extricate himself because of that past.

Thinking of the desire-filled eyes of the High Priest of Miaojiang, Ye Ziyi also felt sick.Zhong Lici covered his face with his hands, and followed the memory to a painful situation: "But I couldn't kill him! I should have killed him a long time ago!"

Zhong Lici was right, Miao Xinjiang was undergoing a major reform before the epidemic.The leader of the reform is Zhong Lici.He almost fully grasped the situation in Miaojiang, and planned to abolish the system of medicine men and slaves.

In the process, he had many opportunities to kill the high priest directly.Today's high priest has no popular support in Miaojiang and no followers. He is just a puppet for Zhong Lici's convenience, so even if he is killed, it doesn't matter.

But he found that the thing that frightened him the most was that he couldn't actually kill the high priest!Even though he already hated that person to the bone, in his dream he swung a knife to kill him happily, but when he really saw him, seeing his old face, he still couldn't do it.

Ye Ziyi also couldn't tell why Zhong Lici did this.But come to think of it, it is also a kind of psychological barrier.He was instilled by the high priest as a slave since he was a child, and this kind of servility cannot be completely eliminated after he has been out for so many years.

So in the deepest part of his heart, there is still a fear of the high priest.And it was this fear that made him not unable to kill the high priest, but not daring to kill him.
