Chapter Seventy-Nine

I didn't expect her to actually follow me to the palace, I didn't expect her to actually marry me. I remember that when she boarded the luxurious wedding sedan chair that day, there was no expression on the face of the beauty who should be happy.

I knew she couldn't like me, and I think she could guess that I was just using her as a dagger against the king of Gaul, and I think I was quite successful in that, at least the resentment on his face that day could not be disguised.

But I didn't think that it would end so soon, at least I could use her to torture that person again, the man who locked Rong'er alone in a small courtyard. I will let him taste the pain of losing his beloved, even if he is the most powerful man in Gaul, even if he is the king of Gaul. If this can compensate for the pain that Rong'er endured, I will let him suffer the pain for the rest of his life.

But I didn't know that she would be so willing to help me untie my clothes, I didn't know that her head could hang so low, looking at the obedient woman kneeling at her feet, the stubbornness and unyielding in her eyebrows are still vivid. In Ping, she was the most favored concubine of the King of Gaul, and she had the best food and clothing, no matter what, but now, not only did the housekeeper of the palace bully her, but even the only little maid was laughing at her lowly with other subordinates behind her back.

But I know that she is not as deferential as she appears to be, and that she must have a secret under the soft exterior of submissiveness. I tried to uncover the scars hidden in her heart, trying to make her reveal her original intentions, but she let me scold as if she hadn't heard anything, and even though I had read countless people, I couldn't see the flaws in her heart at all. If she had been just an ordinary eyeliner sent by the King of Gaul, perhaps I would have had another way to get her to speak, but she is now my nominal princess, and even if she is not as tall as a little maid in the palace, she is still my princess.

What was the reason why I didn't use those excessive means against her, even I knew. Maybe it was the glimpse she had at the top of the hall that day, or maybe it was her pleading with me for that person. I never thought I would be a good person, and I never thought I would be blessed with eternal bliss after death, but I knew that my heart relented when faced with that woman's face that seemed to be engraved on my heart.

I can still remember the scene when I married her, the phoenix crown was in the clouds, the red hijab covered all her face, supported by a little palace maid, as if she was really a bride who was anxious and faintly looking forward to walking on the sedan chair. The man standing on the high platform widened his eyes, and looked at me viciously with a gaze that seemed to be about to pounce on me in the next moment, and the brocade-clothed guards beside him were several times as many as they had been in the past, as if this was no longer a feast for rewarding meritorious heroes, but a great plan to win the world with the emperor as bait. Looking at the guards with tight cheeks as if they were facing a great enemy, I suddenly felt like laughing, was this the preparation of the king of Gaul for a sleepless night? It's not so much about saber-rattling as it is about pretending. If I really want to replace it, then why wait until now, wouldn't last night have a better chance?

Anyway, he can still only watch obediently from above, even if he is unwilling to be helpless in his heart, he can only swallow his anger, last night's fight, although he has no intention of continuing now, but he should also know how badly he lost, not only can he not even keep his beloved woman, but even the throne under him, and even his life I have at my fingertips. He was probably very unwilling, the woman who originally thought that she would stand on his side, even if she saw those bloody scenes, would only pretend to have a flat smile, would openly betray him in front of so many people. Compared with the pain of losing that woman, he probably hated his own incompetence more, the new monarch of Gaul who used to shake the neighbors in all directions, and now even the last brother who could be trusted was going to abandon him, his expression was so disappointed at that moment, and that familiar face turned old in an instant.

I didn't bother with the show, and even though at first I had even advised the woman to spend more time with him, she was clearly standing behind me and never looked back at the man. When she returned to the palace, she locked herself in the next room, and did not let any of the maids in, she said that she had to dress up carefully for the sake of Ming's family affairs, and she also said that she would be distracted if anyone else was there, so she told no one to disturb her. Although I knew that this was an excuse for her to shirk, I still agreed. I just sneered in my heart when I heard her suppressed cry, what is the pain!

I thought she would play some tricks when I wasn't looking, but she was already dressed in her new clothes and sitting there quietly early the next morning. Did she really think I would be pampered like my bride? I sneered, and casually put the red hijab on her slightly lightly applied face, even if her performance yesterday did make those so-called protectors and loyal ministers embarrassed, but only after one night to think about throwing herself into the arms of another person, is the woman whom the king of Gaul has taken a fancy to be so lowly?

When the drum music played, the body of the man with the hijab shook inexplicably, and the little hand that was handed over was cold, as if she felt the burning heat in my palm, and she trembled violently, as if she could feel the hot gaze of the man on the high platform and wanted to withdraw her hand from my palm. I unconsciously clenched the hand that seemed to grow colder until her struggle became smaller and smaller, and a triumphant smile appeared on her face again. I don't know what kind of shame she felt at that time, but she probably couldn't have imagined that the blessing of holding the hand of the son and growing old together would turn into another means of insulting her. But for me it was wonderful, I could even hear something cracking in her heart, I could even hear the mournful sound of her heart, and for me it was probably the best gift she had ever given me.

But when I looked at the woman who was prostrate at my feet again, I felt no pleasure in the slightest of revenge. Did I win? I do not know. Did I win? I do not know. The only thing I knew was that the woman who hadn't come to me willingly was now trying to make a willing appearance and kneel beside me, letting her delicate face rub against the ground. I suddenly felt frustrated, as if I didn't know anything about her and stood in front of her, while she knelt down in front of me as if she knew everything about me, and didn't hesitate to make any kind of movement that would please me.

Am I just a fool in her eyes who can be easily fooled no matter what? I sneered and stared at him for a full quarter of an hour, but I didn't notice the slightest dissatisfaction from her, and I couldn't help but be slightly surprised, could this woman be born to be obedient and not resist? Or is her city so deep that I can't even see it?

"What do you want?" After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't help but be the first to speak. For the first time, I felt so embarrassed in front of her, as if it wasn't her who fell to her knees, but me. I even had the illusion that she was looking at me with a condescending gaze, and that she was laughing at my incompetence and at not being able to see what was going on in her mind.

"Kid." She raised her head suddenly, as if only this sentence touched the string that seemed to be buried deep in her heart as if she would never make a sound for the rest of her life, and after seeing the coldness in my eyes, her head lowered again, but for a moment, a drop of crystal light that had never been seen before dripped heavily in front of me, as if after that moment she regained her original calm, "I just want to see my child." ”

"Kid?" My eyes froze, her child, isn't she with Rong'er? How would she find my head? But looking at the anxiety on her face, I put away the surprise on my face again, and my heart suddenly became clear, since Rong'er's child was picked up by me from the palace, I have never gone back, my brother must have wanted her to think that it was his own child, so he made up a lie that the child was with me, but what he never expected was that one day I would ask him to ask him to ask this woman over, and what he didn't expect was that just because of his words, this woman would willingly follow me here.

I sneered, I didn't expect that after so long, this woman would still remember her child, I wonder if once I tell her the truth of the matter, she will still love the man who hurt Rong'er deeply and hurt her deeply as before? I'm afraid that at that time, she only has hatred for that person in her heart.

The corners of my mouth gradually curved upward, it turned out that she had come here to find her child, so of course I had to take advantage of it. I casually pointed in the direction of the rockery and smiled, "She's right there." (To be continued.) )
