Prequel. Chapter Thirty-Eight: Everyone Knows, Only I Don't

Chongyang's departure is half a month.

The day before he came back, his mother called Mu Jing to the capital again because he was unwell, and as soon as he came, he asked me to go to drink with him, and the matter had not yet been clarified, so I didn't want to ask him, and I didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

He is familiar with Zhenyang, if he meets Zhenyang before me and knows my doubts, he will definitely find a way not to let Zhenyang tell me anything.

Mu Jing also wondered, how could I see him like I saw an enemy, I didn't even see them when I came to me, and I ignored him when I saw him.

He asked Xingyi to ask me if he had provoked me somewhere, but fortunately, Xingyi was towards me, and he didn't tell Mu Jing about that day, and promised that I wouldn't see Mu Jing again until I came back from Chongyang.

When I first got the news of Chongyang's return, it was already the afternoon of the next day, and I heard that he had rushed back overnight, and it was already midnight when I arrived in Beijing, and when I was about to go directly to Murong Mansion to find him, he had already come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to look for me.

Worried about my father and mother, I directly dragged him outside, and asked Xingyi to help me drag Mu Jing and don't let him go out until I came back.

Chongyang said that he asked the people in the house this morning if they had come to look for him during this time, but fortunately, the person who saw me at the beginning remembered that I had been there, so he told Zhenyang that he had just come to me when he was free.

Zhenyang took me directly to Baiyue Tower, he was extremely uncomfortable not drinking when talking to people, I didn't know how to ask, so I had to say something else first.

I probably asked him where he went, and he only said that King Chen had something to do in Beiliang, but he couldn't leave during this time, so he asked him to go on a trip, and now the matter has been done, he just went to King Chen's mansion in the morning.

When he left Beijing, it was after King Chen looked for him.

As soon as I heard him say King Chen, I suddenly became anxious, and Yang saw that something was wrong with me at a glance, and asked me: "You are in a hurry to see me, is there anything important?" ”

I clenched the teacup in my hand, and suddenly thought in my heart, Zhenyang is willing to go to Beiliang for King Chen, they have such a good relationship, if the truth is really like that, then does Zhenyang know, if I ask him, will he tell me the truth.

"Yi'er, what's wrong?"

I took a sip of tea before I said to him, "Lingyang, I really have something important to ask you." ”

He smiled at me and motioned for me to ask directly.

"Do you remember, before in Peach Blossom Village, you told me that when King Chen was ten years old, he was assassinated by the Bai family and chased to the river, how did he go back?"

He took a sip of wine and replied without thinking: "At that time, he didn't return to the palace right away, and he disappeared for a while, probably..."

Hearing the word missing, I couldn't help but interrupt him before he could finish it and asked, "Three months?" ”

He looked at me with a smile, "Probably, only two or three months." How do you know? ”

I didn't answer his question and continued to ask him, "Is he wearing a mask all the time?" ”

"That's when I came back from disappearance, and I have been wearing a mask."

"The last time you said that he was injured, and he still has a scar, is his scar on the corner of his right eye?"

He was suddenly stunned, the hand holding the wine glass trembled unnaturally, and he smiled at me, and avoided my eyes, without saying a word, his behavior was clear to me at this moment.

He continued to ask him, "Is it a knife wound?" ”

"Does he like to eat peaches and drink chrysanthemum tea?"

"Does he like to eat hazelnut crisp the most, and does he especially hate potatoes?"

"Doesn't he hate looking in the mirror?"

Zhenyang drank another glass of wine and looked at me, as if to explain something, "Yi'er, actually..."

"I'm going to ask him about it." I interrupted him again.

When he saw me getting up and preparing to leave, he quickly stood up and stretched out his hand to hold me, as if he had been thinking for a long time, and asked me, "What about Ah Hang?" ”

Emirates...

Suddenly in a trance, I stumbled and sat down again, what kind of grievance and hatred this is.

Two years ago, Murong Ling turned his back on Lou Yihang and fell in love with him, and two years later, he and Murong Ling both returned to Beijing, and I met him again, but I had promised Lou Yihang to be with him.

It's been more than eight years, no, it's been almost nine years, and I haven't seen him in the capital, but at this time, he came back, and I inadvertently learned his identity.

"You're going to ask him about it, and then separate from Ah Hang and be with him?"

"I just want to know the truth and why he lied to me. As for Emirates..."

That night I was determined to be with Lou Yihang, and made a two-year appointment, and the emotion at that time was real, his kindness to me was also true, and I said that as long as his mind remained unchanged, I would not fail him.

"I said I would never fail him."

Yang raised his eyes and smiled at me, as if he didn't believe my words, "But that's the person you've been waiting for for eight years, and Ah Hang is for you..."

"I'm not going to fail him."

This is both a reply to him and a promise to myself.

I said that I would not fail him, nor could I bear him, as long as he always had me in his heart, I would never.

Ling Xueyun... Lou Jing...

Since he chose to lie to me, it shows that he doesn't want to be with me. I shouldn't have gone to him, how could I pester him.

"Hello."

Yang called me lightly, I came back to my senses, and he spoke again: "But if it is, what if he loses you first." ”

"Huh?" I was stunned for a moment, and only after a moment did I realize that he was talking about Lou Yihang, and I suddenly had doubts in my heart, and hurriedly asked him: "What did you say?" How could he fail me? ”

He slowly explained to me: "Ah Hang has liked Ling'er since she was a child, and if you like it for so many years, how long have you known each other, how can you be sure how much he loves you." ”

"Ling'er has been away from Beijing for two years, in the past two years, he has never had any close women around him, he only saw you a few times at that time, and he said that he likes you, Yi'er, you are such a smart person, haven't you thought about it?"

When he said this, even I was stunned.

I didn't ask myself again and again if he was serious about me, but the day I fell into the water with him, he really didn't let go of my hand, and the lanterns and fireworks he prepared for me that night were also real.

What he said to me, I could even see in his eyes that it was sincere, and it didn't seem like it was fake.

If he doesn't have me in his heart, why do he do this for me?

Murong Ling betrayed him at the beginning, so he fell out with King Chen, and also cut off his relationship with Murong Ling.

And since Murong Ling returned to Beijing, he really hasn't had any trouble with her, and he hasn't heard anyone say anything about what happened to him and her.

Did he already dislike Murong Ling at all?

Listening to Lingyang's words, I was a little shocked in my heart, for two years, he had not had a close woman by his side, why did I fall into his eyes as soon as I appeared.

Yes, how special I am, in terms of appearance, family background, temperament, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I am not as good as too many people in this capital, why does he treat me unusually.

So why is he?

It's because of King Chen...

It's because he also knows that King Chen is Ling Xie Yun, and he knows about me and Ling Xie Yun.

So... Does he want to be with me?

"Why did he lie to me?"

"I don't know."

"Lou Yihang also knows about this, doesn't he?"

"Yes."

I think I should probably know what's going on, but there is still a trace of unbearability in my heart, I can't bear to think of Lou Yihang so badly, and I can't bear to be deceived again and again.

"Do you know why he approached you?"

That day, Ouyang Junyu also said such things to me, does he also know?

There is also King Yun, he also said that if Brother Yun is still alive, then he also knows.

Father, mother, Mu Jing, they all know it, right?

So this matter, everyone knows, only I don't know.

Even Lingyang hid it from me, and if I hadn't found out the clue and asked him, he might have been hiding it from me and would never have told me, just like them.

There is also Mu Jing, Mu Jing actually opened his eyes to me again and again and said nonsense, just don't tell me, and help lie to me together, the content of the letter he told me must have been made up by himself, just hoping that I could let go of the past earlier.

King Chen, it's really hard for him to lie to me with so many people.

"Yi'er, don't think too much, you calm down first, and when Xie Yun has time, I'll let you meet, you can ask him directly."

Xie Yun?

"Xie Yun?"

"That's what I've called him since I was a kid."

"Is that really his name?"

"His mother's surname is indeed Ling, and the name Xie Yun was given to him by his mother."

It turned out that he didn't lie to me, I thought it was really as my father said, he even told me his name was false, he didn't, he didn't lie to me.

Then he didn't recognize me, lied to me that he was no longer there, did he also have his own difficulties, when I first learned about the folding fan that day, didn't I still tell myself that I should believe him? It should be believed that he had a last resort to do so.

The Ling Xie Yun I miss in my heart, he only has me in his heart, he said let me wait for him, he said he would marry me, but what reason did he have, why did he lie to me that he was gone?

So he also knew about my amnesia half a year ago, he probably thought that I would forget him like this, forget him forever, no one thought of it, only half a year, I remembered everything.

Is the legend of the Lake of Forgetfulness true or false? When I made up my mind to forget him, he saved me again and told me that the legend of the Lake of Forgetfulness was false, and that I should not do anything like that again.

He advised me to live well and forget the person in my heart, he knew that the person in my heart was him, and he still said those words to me.

He said that on purpose, did he really want me to forget about him?
