Chapter 364: Let Go for Love
Seeing Xiao Jinwen's eyes full of sincerity and anxious explanation.
In fact, Xiao Jinxuan still understands the other party's personality quite well, and the things that coerce Liangjun to kneel, or verbally intimidate, are really not like what Xiao Jinwen, a lady, can do.
Therefore, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but turn around and look at Meng Liangjun, who was protected by herself, and then asked helplessly:
"You won't say anything again, you want to marry Meng Mian as a concubine, I told you a long time ago, you had better break this idea earlier, otherwise not only will you have a bad reputation, but you will kill Meng Mian if you know it."
The imperial court ordered the whole house to be beheaded, so there was no need to even think about it, Xiao Jinxuan also knew that Meng Mian's biological father must have committed the big crime of treason and power, otherwise he would not have been executed so harshly.
After all, the disaster will not affect the family, according to the law of the Great Zhou, if it is ordinary corruption and bribery, forming a party for personal gain, officials are beheaded, but it will never be involved to the point that all the people are executed.
And now Meng Liangjun is in the eyes of outsiders, that is, he likes his own brother.
In this way, others will be curious or surprised, and begin to pay attention to the family background of the two, and even the date of birth.
In this way, it is extremely easy to expose what happened after Meng Mian is a criminal minister.
And at that time, not only Meng Mian will not survive, but even the Meng family who shielded him will even be affected, and it will be impossible to ruin the family.
It was precisely because of so many heavy concerns that Xiao Jinxuan didn't even dare to show a little bit of her attitude in front of Meng Mian that she already knew the other party's true identity.
Because if she did that, it would definitely cause Meng Mian to panic, after all, although the other party was incognito, his real identity was a death row prisoner in the imperial court.
Xiao Jinxuan is also a person with a secret in her heart, if one day, she is reborn and returns, even if Zhou Xianyu knows, she will definitely feel afraid and uneasy.
Therefore, Xiao Jinxuan knew very well that it was actually the best choice to break Meng Mian's identity and ask him to have a good talk with Meng Liangjun.
But she couldn't do this method, otherwise Meng Liangjun's heart knot would not be untied by then, and Meng Mian would fall into a gaffe because of the exposure of his life experience.
At that time, it will not only affect the marriage date, but also what extreme things the other party is doing. That's where the real trouble is.
And Xiao Jinwen, who was originally standing aside and wanted to explain to Xiao Jinxuan that she really didn't have to be embarrassed by Meng Liangjun, when she heard the other party's words, talking about Meng Mian, she couldn't help but sigh and said:
"Jinxuan, in fact, it stands to reason that this married daughter will not return to the door until a month later to report safety to her mother's family. But since getting married, the husband has never shown a happy face, in fact, even if he doesn't say it, I know that Meng Mian is worried about Liangjun, but now I don't know how to face this sister. I saw that there must be a solution to this matter, so I hurried back to the Shuai Mansion on the pretext of returning to the door, in order to persuade Liangjun not to do things that hurt himself and implicate your brother. ”
Meng Mian is now the official head of the household department, because Emperor Ming attaches great importance to him, so he is intended to let him be trained, and then he will be promoted to the head of the household department.
However, the unethical relationship between the brothers and sisters of the Meng family is now spread all over the city, and this matter in the court has become a reason for the prince's faction to attack Meng Mian.
So today's Meng Mian doesn't talk about sealing the head of the household, that is, whether the position of this squire can be kept now, it is still a matter of two words.
And after hearing Xiao Jinwen, this was gracious and a little anxious.
Meng Liangjun, who was hiding behind Xiao Jinxuan and crying bitterly, shook his head and said:
"Jinxuan, don't be wrong, Sister Jinwen, she really didn't say a word to me. It was I who felt sorry for her and my brother, so I knelt down and hoped for her forgiveness. But Sister Jinwen, the relationship between me and my brother is not as unbearable as you think, I really like him, I don't know what I'm living for without my brother. ”
Seeing that Xiao Jinwen heard this, she immediately spoke anxiously and continued to enlighten Meng Liangjun.
But Xiao Jinxuan stopped her at once, and after thinking for a while, she decided to tell this cousin the truth.
After all, the other party is now Meng Mian's wife, and anyone may use Meng Mian's true identity to threaten and harm him, but Xiao Jinwen will not do this.
And after Xiao Jinxuan ignored Meng Liangjun's opposition and regarded Meng Mian as a criminal minister, it was not a matter of the children of the Meng family, and after he made peace with the other party.
Xiao Jinwen was even stunned, and when she came back to her senses, her first reaction was to take Meng Liangjun's hand in distress, and then looked at Xiao Jinxuan as if asking for help and said:
"When a biological brother and sister fall in love, it is naturally unethical. But if the truth is like this, then I, Xiao Jinwen, am by no means a jealous woman, and I am willing to do it if I can fulfill Liangjun's infatuation, so Sister Jinxuan, you have a way to make this matter both. ”
At this time, Xiao Jinwen's family upbringing since childhood was completely and fully displayed.
Because she is the eldest lady of the Shuai Mansion, Xiao Jinxuan is destined to be the lady of the main house no matter who she marries in the future.
And this man's three wives and four concubines are common, so Xiao Jinwen's education is how to become a decent lady, and jealousy is also something she must quit.
As a main house, I have the obligation to support my husband to reproduce and spread the leaves.
Therefore, in Xiao Jinwen's heart, Meng Mian can not only take a concubine, but if necessary, she will even personally find a woman to fill the house for the other party.
So before, she would stop and enlighten Meng Liangjun, just because she thought that the other party and Meng Mian were brother and sister, but now she knows that the two have no blood relationship with each other at all.
Therefore, Xiao Jinwen felt a little pity for Meng Liangjun coming, so he said Shicai's words that he was willing to fulfill.
And Xiao Jinwen, who thought that it would become the biggest obstacle, agreed so happily.
Immediately, Meng Liangjun cried out again with joy, and when he came to the other party, he knelt down to thank the other party.
But just when Xiao Jinwen and Meng Liangjun were almost sisters, Xiao Jinxuan stopped the two with an unsightly face.
"It's just nonsense, cousin, I will tell you the truth, one is to let you understand Meng Mian thoroughly, and you will not be caught off guard if there are any changes in the future. Another reason is that I don't want you to misunderstand Liangjun and think that her behavior is unusual. But when I do this, I don't mean that you will become a good king, and it is absolutely impossible for her to have any results with Meng Mian. ”
Seeing Meng Liangjun's face in disbelief, his eyes flashed and he looked at himself with injury, Xiao Jinxuan did not avoid his gaze, but also looked at the other party directly and said:
"Liangjun, we understand you because we know Meng Mian's true identity. But it is impossible to tell the world about this matter, and in the eyes of outsiders, your union is unethical and a kind of shameful family ugliness. And the most important thing is that Meng Mian has always regarded you as a sister, and you called him to take his sister as a concubine, I think according to his temperament, I am afraid that even if he dies, he will not do such a thing. ”
Seeing Meng Liangjun crying out of his voice, Xiao Jinxuan sighed helplessly, and then frowned and said:
"Actually, when you first came to Forsythia Courtyard and told me these things, I advised you and Meng Mian to make everything clear. As a result, you said that the other party didn't know, and you actually knew his true identity, and you were afraid that saying it rashly would cause trouble to the other party. Therefore, Liangjun, you were hesitating, delaying until the wedding day, and finally using such an extreme way to say what was in your heart in front of everyone, do you know that doing this is actually more harmful to Meng Mian. ”
Meng Liangjun, who was being held in Xiao Jinwen's arms and comforted softly, immediately became very excited when he heard this, and shouted in pain with hoarseness:
"Jinxuan, I can't help it, I'm afraid to tell Brother Meng Mian that after I know his true identity, he will hide, ignore me, and stop loving me as much as before. And because I know that he has always regarded me as a sister, I don't know how to say what I like him. I was scared that he would reject me, I was really scared. Lose him. ”
Meng Liangjun's complex and tangled feelings, Xiao Jinxuan felt uncomfortable in her heart, but she still spoke slowly as soon as the other party's voice lagged behind:
"So you are in this kind of nervousness, you missed the best opportunity to talk to Meng Mian, even if I persuaded you more than once, you couldn't muster up the courage. But on the day of the wedding, if you don't say what is in your heart, you will probably regret it in this life. So when you are pressed, impulsiveness prevails and you do things that show your heart in front of others. I'm afraid that now that you have calmed down, you will definitely regret it in your heart. ”
Hearing Xiao Jinxuan's words, Meng Liangjun first nodded, then shook his head firmly and said:
"Jinxuan, I regret it, but I was angry with my impulsiveness, which actually caused trouble to Brother Meng Mian. But I don't regret my decision, because I wouldn't have had the courage to tell my brother what was going on in private. But I love him, and I want everyone to know how much I love him. Even if everyone in Beijing thinks that I am shameless, I still have no regrets. ”
When she said this, Meng Liangjun's eyes were shining with a scorching light, but then her expression darkened, and then she suddenly said in a low voice:
"I remember that Jinxuan, you told me before, sometimes it is not necessary to be together to love someone, and letting go is actually a better choice. Now I can see that because of me, I have caused so much trouble to my brother, although I did want to be his concubine before, and I have made up my mind to be with him. But now that I think clearly, I don't want to be a drag on my brother, so I will always love him in my heart and not disturb his life. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Liangjun took the initiative to take Xiao Jinwen's hand, and then said sincerely:
"On your wedding day, my actions must have hurt my sister. But now that my brother knows what I want, that's enough for me. Sister Jinwen, you are a good person, I hope you can take care of my brother for me, as long as he is well, I will be satisfied. ”
