Chu Xingyue's words are reasonable, as the daughter of the Chu family, she does have the responsibility to protect her father and brother.

It's just that Zhao Xi didn't dare to underestimate his third sister-in-law, and the few questions in her words just now were like heavy thunder, hitting him in the chest fiercely; He should have thought that today's third sister-in-law is no longer the foolish she was at the beginning, she is very smart and delicate, even Luo Qing can guess things, how could she not guess.

But in that case, it was much easier for him to do; As long as he planted the seeds of doubt in the heart of the third sister-in-law, even if he didn't say some things too clearly, I believe that the third sister-in-law would also think of that layer, and when the time came, he would be regarded as having completed what his father told him to do.

However, he was curious, what did the third brother do to make the third sister-in-law so obsessed? What position does the person that the third brother can't tolerate occupy in the third sister-in-law's heart, so that the third sister-in-law can't let go like this.

Suddenly, Zhao Xi had an answer to Chu Xingyue's last sentence in his heart.

If that person really died because the third brother couldn't tolerate him, then the only reason why the third brother couldn't tolerate him might be the third sister-in-law; He is very aware of the third brother's possessiveness towards the third sister-in-law, driven by this possessiveness, how can the third brother look at his wife calmly and pretend to have other men in his heart?

If this is the case, then the third brother's move is inevitably too disappointing, since he killed that person, how can he let the third sister-in-law know the truth? With the character of the third sister-in-law, after knowing the truth, you still don't get into trouble with the third brother?

Zhao Xi took a deep breath, suppressed the messy thoughts in his heart, looked at Chu Xingyue directly, and told the lie without changing his face, and said, "Third sister-in-law, I won't hide it from you, in fact, before I came to see you, I had already entered the palace. ”

Chu Xingyue's eyes were still immersed in the pain of memories, but when she suddenly heard Zhao Xi say this, she immediately turned her head to look at him, and at the same time, her bright eyes looked straight at him, and the hand in the quilt also tightened subconsciously, vaguely, looking at Zhao Xi with such a serious expression, she had an ominous premonition.

"You saw Zhao Ling? Isn't it? ”

Zhao Xi followed Chu Xingyue's words and said, "Third sister-in-law, the third brother's original words are to let you stay in the palace to recuperate from your injuries with peace of mind, and he will take care of the rest." ”

Chu Xingyue knew very well how deep the brotherly relationship between Zhao Xi and Zhao Ling was, so she was convinced of Zhao Xi's words; But it was this deep belief that made her feel like she was struck by lightning after hearing this sentence at the moment.

Her husband, her only reliance in the capital, the man she cherished and believed in the most in this world, did not come forward in person after knowing what happened to her in the house, but let her brother casually bring her such a passage; Isn't it obvious what he meant by this, and what his attitude was at this time?

A crystal tear slipped silently from the corner of her eye, and instantly rolled into her thick black hair.

Chu Xingyue blinked her long eyelashes, and in her bright eyes, the black pupils looked like washed grapes, but they were heavy, "Is this really what he told you personally?" He also knew about my injury? ”

Zhao Xi hooked his head again, and kept apologetic in his heart, but said: "That's right, it was the third brother who said it, the third sister-in-law, in fact, you don't have to think about things so badly, Chu Shizi made a big mistake, but there is still room for redemption in everything, and the third brother did not give up, you just need to wait in peace." ”

Chu Xingyue laughed out loud when she heard this, as if she had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world, her whole eyes lit up, and she looked at Zhao Xi with a shocking light: "Wait in peace?" Zhao Xi, do you know that just a few months ago, Zhao Ling had said the same thing to me, making me believe in him, and let me wait quietly for his news with peace of mind, he promised that I would bring Yuan Feng back, and promised that I would keep him safe; But in the end, do you know what I'm waiting for? I waited for the fact that Yuan Feng died in front of me, and waited for the biggest regret and pain in my life. At that moment, the person I hated the most was not the murderer who killed Yuan Feng, but myself. If I hadn't believed him so casually, if I had come forward to save him in person, maybe the whole outcome would have been different. But, Yuan Feng is dead, there is no if, he died alive in front of me, just like fate's biggest mockery of me, tell me; Chu Xingyue, you see, this is the consequence of you easily trusting others, killing the most loyal friend to you in this life, what you owe him, you can't change it in the next life. ”

Speaking of this, Chu Xingyue's emotions became excited, obviously she was so sad and regretful, but at this time, she grinned at Zhao Xi and said, "After I have experienced so many things myself, do you think I will easily trust others?" Zhao Xi, do you really think I, Chu Xingyue, am stupid? Can't you see that Emperor Showa has done so much, is he going to me and the Jingbei Hou Mansion? No, maybe from the beginning, he didn't think of moving the Beihou Mansion at this time, because in the past few years, my father's reputation in the Great Wei is too good, and everyone sees him as a hero who protects the Taiping of the Great Wei, and it is really an unwise choice to move such a hero at this time; However, as things developed, Emperor Showa found an opportunity and a reason to start; He wanted to settle me and the Jingbei Hou Mansion together. ”

"I should have thought a long time ago, this emperor's heart is the most unkind, when he needs you, he can offer it with both hands, but once he doesn't need you, you are a nail in his eyes, and he can't get rid of it immediately, right?"

"Actually, I believe in Zhao Ling's feelings for me, after all, I can clearly feel his liking for me, and that kind of liking is definitely not a joke, nor is it taken out casually to deceive people; However, in front of his family and country, he will become ruthless, you know? I have learned his ruthless side, he abandoned me between him and me in the safety of the capital, and now he abandons me again, and I am not surprised. Because he is the prince of Great Wei, he is the person who will sit on the dragon chair in the future, and if he wants to sit in that position, the first thing he must do is to make me cold-blooded and cold-hearted, and I can't be easily swayed by feelings; He's always had a lot of talent in that regard, hasn't he? ”

The third brother once abandoned the third sister-in-law once? This is the first time Zhao Xi has heard of it.

After saying these words in one breath, Chu Xingyue seemed to gradually calm down, although there were still tears in her eyes, but the whole person felt different from just now; She looked at the top of the tent with empty eyes, as if she was saying to herself, and seemed to be muttering to herself, "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have pinned my hopes on others, I should have thought that only myself in this world would not really betray myself." ”

Zhao Xi's heart was suddenly startled, he looked at Chu Xingyue like this in surprise, and quickly stretched out his hand to support her shoulder, and said, "Third sister-in-law, what do you mean by this?" Don't do anything stupid at this time. ”

Chu Xingyue rolled her black eyes, looked at Zhao Xi slowly, and then smiled at him; That smile is still beautiful, but it makes Zhao Xi feel inexplicably uneasy.

"Don't worry, I've never been so sober and aware of what to do."

Saying that, Chu Xingyue looked out of the door and continued to say to Zhao Xi: "Old Seven, I'm sorry for you to go this way, you have also seen my situation now, as for the matter I want to entrust you with, there is no need for that; Now that I and the Marquis of Jingbei have become a thorn in the side of Emperor Showa, it will not end well to be entangled with me, so please trouble you from where you came in, and then go back from somewhere; Don't be discovered by the Guards, or it will be bad for you. ”

was already suffering and blaming in his heart, but now that he heard Chu Xingyue say this, Zhao Xi felt that he was not even a man; failed the third brother and deceived the third sister-in-law, even if he is with Luo Qing in the future, he will suffer the condemnation of conscience for the rest of his life.

"Third sister-in-law, I'm fine, the current situation is special, or let me guard you here; At least with me, these guards don't dare to do anything to you. ”

Chu Xingyue laughed: "Don't worry, Emperor Showa just ordered the Imperial Forest Army to trap me, and he won't really kill me at this time, as long as my father still holds the military power, everyone here must be polite to me; Besides, even if your third brother is ruthless, he will not watch me being persecuted, he is reluctant. ”

After hearing Chu Xingyue say this, Zhao Xi knew that she had made up her mind, no matter how much she said, she would not let herself stay.

After thinking about it, he got up from the round stool, and after saluting Chu Xingyue, he quietly exited the room.

Looking at the bright light and shadow outside the window projected on Zhao Xi's departing back, Chu Xingyue blinked her sore eyes, as if she saw Zhao Ling's figure from Zhao Xi's body; Looking at the similar shadow of their brother, she muttered open her mouth and said a silent goodbye to the back.

This scene happened to be seen by Xiao Ruiyuan.

After Zhao Xi left the Feiyu Courtyard, Zhao Xi hurried to Chu Xingyue's bedside and immediately asked, "Sister, the prince is unwilling to see us at this time, what should we do?" ”

After knowing a result, Chu Xingyue let go of many obsessions; At this moment, she will no longer be held back by some unnecessary things, and she will let herself go on strong for the sake of the people around her.

Chu Xingyue said: "Although the whereabouts of the eldest brother are unknown, at least it proves that he has not fallen into the hands of the Imperial Forest Army, and right now, I am the only one trapped in the capital; I can't be a burden to my father and brother, I want to get out of here. ”
