Chapter 63: Showdown
"For example, the time I fell into the water before I got married, it was your good sister Lehua who pushed me personally."
Le Jun's first reaction was that he didn't want to believe it, but he couldn't say anything to refute it. He remembered what his mother had said to him over the years, and what his sister had done to Yueqing over the years, bullying and abusing him. And he heard with his own ears that his mother had instructed his sister to do this... No, when he persuaded him, his mother and sister had clearly promised him not to do it.
Le Jun figured it out, and was almost deceived by Yueqing's rhetoric. Immediately, he retorted: "You are talking nonsense, they obviously promised me not to do that." What is your purpose in slandering my sister's reputation like this? You—You're not trying to maliciously ruin my sister's reputation and ruin my sister's karma?! ”
After Le Jun said this, he was shocked, it turned out that what his mother and sister said was right. Yueqing's scheming is really so vicious!
Chu Yueqing originally thought that she had given a dose of fierce medicine that would make this cheap brother come to his senses, but she didn't expect this medicine to be too fierce, and it rebounded!
Obviously feeling that her own patience had reached a critical point, Chu Yueqing finally said: "First of all, you said that they promised you not to do that, presumably you know that they have thought about framing me. You say they promised you, but how can you be sure they didn't promise it!
Also, you say I want to ruin your sister's reputation. Lejun, do you remember? The day after I fell into the water, someone came to the palace. Do you think that if I sue the emperor and the empress, it was Lehua who pushed me down the river, what will they do with Lehua, and what will they do with your mother?! ”
Le Jun wanted to say something more, but Chu Yueqing didn't give him this chance, and continued, "Don't be in a hurry to question me, you can decide that I am a bad person." Because that was the last time I didn't care about Lehua and Li, in the future, if they want to harm me again, I will definitely not tolerate it again. ”
After saying this, Chu Yueqing's mood was finally a lot happier. She is not good at and does not want to mediate with Lehua and Li, so she will use the most straightforward way.
"You, I..." Le Jun thought about it for a long time before he established his trust in Lehua, and he was in chaos in an instant.
Chu Yueqing saw that Le Jun was stunned, thinking that he had finally listened to his words, and as for how much he listened, he left it to fate.
Both were silent for a moment.
After a while, Chu Yueqing asked, "Do you still insist on going to confront your father?" ”
Le Jun hesitated, "I..."
How could he take her to her father, if what she said was true... If it was true, he couldn't forgive his mother and couldn't forgive Lehua.
Father? I'm afraid that my father will only be more angry than him.
"Don't worry, as long as they are no longer obsessed, I won't sue my father. Think about it. After Chu Yueqing finished speaking, he turned around and went to the backyard.
In the open land, only Le Jun stood there alone, frowning, and didn't say a word.
――
Walking to the backyard, Moori was walking in circles around Uncle Luo.
Seeing Chu Yueqing coming, he quickly ran to her side and hurriedly asked, "Princess, are you okay?" ”
Chu Yueqing smiled and said, "It's okay." Uncle Luo, let's go see Aunt Luo. ”
Uncle Luo didn't say anything, just walked forward slowly, leading the way for Chu Yueqing.
The woods are very wide, and after walking for a while, Chu Yueqing can no longer see the way he came, and looking ahead, there are endless trees. There are many trees in the forest, with a wide variety of varieties and uneven heights.
Some of the trees have only dead branches, and there are many dead leaves around the trees, and people are stepping on them and rustling. But as far as the eye can see, there are many pine trees, exuding proud greenery in this cold winter day.
I don't know how much there is to go to worship Aunt Luo, so Chu Yueqing chatted with Uncle Luo, "Uncle Luo, are the trees in this forest originally there or artificially planted?" ”
"Most of these trees are a hundred years old, and the old slaves don't know much about them. However, Uncle Luo pointed to the pine trees that grew in the shape of a wheel and said, "These trees were planted when the first lady was there. ”
Chu Yueqing was stunned for a moment and said, "My mother? Uncle Luo, can you tell us more about your mother? ”
Uncle Luo was very surprised, Yueqing had never said that he had taken the initiative to talk about Mrs. Xian before. But accidents are accidents, Uncle Luo is a very nostalgic person, and he can't help but talk a lot about the past.
He said, "Okay, the eldest lady wants to hear it, and the old slave must know everything." Let's start with these trees, when Mrs. had just married Master Hou.
At that time, the forest in the backyard was not so deserted. Master Hou would practice martial arts here every morning, and his wife would sometimes come together.
Later, in winter, the leaves of the trees in the forest have fallen. Mrs. didn't look good, so she told Hou Ye to plant some trees that are green all year round, and Hou Ye didn't believe it at first, and asked Mrs., 'The climate in this capital has always been like this, trees flourish in summer and depression in winter. Will there be trees that are green all year round? ’
Madame said that when she was young and traveled with General Xiao, she had seen it at the junction of Daqi and Beiling, where there was a kind of tree that was like spring all year round, and it was very easy to survive. ”
Speaking of this, Uncle Luo's eyes became very soft, "The prince ordered me to find it." But Daqi is far away from Beiling, and by the time the old slave finds it back, more than half a year has passed.
At that time, it was already summer, and few of the small saplings brought by the old slave from Beiling survived. However, the lady was still very happy, saying that she would be able to see the green trees this winter.
Hehe, Hou Ye is Hou Keshou, there are only a few small saplings surviving. It's not bare by the time of winter...."
Chu Yueqing also smiled when he heard it, "Yes, did your father ask Uncle Luo to look for it later?" ”
She looked at the many pine trees now, and must have gone to look for them later.
Uncle Luo shook his head with a smile, "How can it, the distance back and forth is far away, although this tree is easy to feed, but it can't stop the journey of two or three months." Later, Hou Ye found out that there were people in the capital who specialized in selling this kind of small saplings..."
The past can be recalled, in this winter to recall the past, and finally return to reality, it seems that life is more lonely. Aunt Luo's tomb was close in front of her, and Chu Yueqing and Uncle Luo also stopped talking.
Uncle Luo said that Aunt Luo has lived in the Hou Mansion for a lifetime. I didn't want to be buried outside after I died, so Uncle Luo asked Lehou to find a place in the forest in the backyard, and Aunt Luo was buried under the pine tree that blooms in all seasons.
The afternoon sun shines through the pine needles on the tomb. The area around the tomb is very clean, and I think Uncle Luo should come to clean it often. Chu Yueqing knelt on the bare ground and solemnly kowtowed three times.
Even if it's for Yueqing, knock it. (To be continued)
PS: Ask for collections, ask for recommendations.
In other words, will I hold on to this cry until the end of the book?
