A tear crossed the corner of Ling Jiantong's eyes, but the corners of his lips hooked up a weak smile: "Mu Jinghong, look, I don't need your hot water anymore." ”

Mu Jinghong's heart suddenly seemed to have overturned the five-flavor bottle, watching her cry, his heart seemed to be torn apart.

"Eyes, you have to believe me, I won't do that kind of thing to betray you, last night...... I was drunk last night and I don't really know anything......"

"Is that your reason to be drunk?" Ling Jiantong suddenly interrupted his words and looked at him in a daze.

In her mind, from the moment she walked out of Jiao Zi Pavilion yesterday, she didn't know how many times she had repeated the picture of him and Gong Chuyue's intimacy, she was heartbroken from the beginning, until the final numbness and resignation.

"Eyes, don't be like this." Mu Jinghong wanted to hug Ling Jiantong again, but was dodged by Ling Jiantong, her eyes showed disgust, and she shook her head vigorously: "You stay away from me, I beg you, stay away from me, your hands have just touched other women, and if you touch me again, I feel dirty." ”

She almost gritted her teeth and said it, Mu Jinghong's hand paused in mid-air, her fingers curled slightly, revealing a little despair.

Silence, followed by a terrible silence.

Ling Jiantong was fed up, she buried her head between her arms again, and her voice was muffled: "Mu Jinghong, let's do this, I should have known from the beginning, you have been in love for many years, how could you stop on me, you go." ”

Mu Jinghong faced Ling Jiantong for the first time, there was a helpless sense of powerlessness, in the past, no matter where she was, he could feel that she was by his side, but now, they were obviously so close, but he couldn't touch her anymore, this feeling made Mu Jinghong scared for no reason, fear.

"Eyes, I know what I'm talking about now, and there is no way to change the facts, I think you should understand in your heart that this is a trap set by Gong Chuyue, just for us to have a misunderstanding, are you really willing to fall for her tricks?"

"Or else?" Ling Jiantong raised his head suddenly, and stared at Mu Jinghong with a pair of dissatisfied, bloodshot eyes: "Mu Jinghong, there is already an indelible gap between us, every time I see you, I think of everything last night, I feel distressed, I am about to go crazy, I don't want to torture myself like this anymore, Mu Jinghong, you go!" Just let me go! I can't touch a man like you, it's my mistake! I beg you, I beg you ......"

Ling Jiantong was hoarse from the beginning.

Her shoulders shook and shook from crying, Mu Jinghong looked at her, two lines of bitter tears flowed from his eyes, his hand was still half a foot away from her shoulder, but it was like touching ice, and he couldn't get close to it again.

Perhaps, this is the fate between them.

Mu Jinghong slowly got up, turned around and left Ling Jiantong's room.

Ling Zhishuang and Yun Yi, who were anxiously waiting outside the door, saw Mu Jinghong coming out, and naturally couldn't help but ask how Ling Jinghong's condition was, but Mu Jinghong seemed to have lost half of his soul, and his ears were buzzing, but he couldn't hear what they were saying.

It was the first time for Ling Zhishuang to see Mu Jinghong look so depressed, and he was even more worried, obviously the two of them were still very affectionate yesterday, but it was only one night, how did they become like this?

"Husband, you say, is there any misunderstanding between the cut pupils and the Seventh Prince? Otherwise, let's go in and ask about the cut-outs. ”

Ling Zhishuang, whose biological daughter is not easy to find, really can't bear it, but Yunyi stopped Ling Zhishuang with a light sigh: "If you are willing to say it, you won't drive us out, let's give them a little space and let them be quiet." ”

"There are still five days left before the day of marriage, how can this kind of thing happen at this juncture." Ling Zhishuang couldn't help but sigh.

Before Mu Jinghong left the gate of Fengguofu, a maid suddenly ran over, knelt in front of him, and kowtowed again and again: "Seventh Prince, go and see Miss, Miss is going to have an accident!" ”

The kneeling maid is Gong Chuyue's personal maid Bi'er.

Mu Jinghong now except for Ling Jiantong, he doesn't care about other people's affairs, not to mention Gong Chuyue, who is still the culprit.

Mu Jinghong bypassed her and went straight forward, but Bi'er unwillingly grabbed the corner of his clothes and begged: "Seventh Prince, you can't just care about Miss Ling's life and death, and ignore my young lady, now my young lady is standing on the edge of the lake, if you don't go to see each other, my young lady's temperament is strong, maybe she will jump down and commit suicide." ”

Mu Jinghong didn't want to go to the palace anymore, he sneered, grabbed the corner of his clothes from Bi'er's palm, and dropped a cold sentence: "If she wants to commit suicide, no one will stop her." ”

Bi'er saw that Mu Jinghong really didn't care, so she shouted at his back: "My young lady is at fault, but don't forget, prince, what did you promise Ye Daxia?!" ”

Mu Jinghong paused, Ye Zhengbai's face appeared in front of his eyes, and the words asking him to take care of Gong Chuyue lingered in his ears unconsciously.

He clenched his five fingers under the sleeves, unwilling but had to comply.

When Bi'er saw Mu Jinghong standing there, she took the opportunity to say, "My young lady is waiting for you at Liuyang Lake." ”

In the end, Mu Jinghong still went to Liuyang Lake, and saw Gong Chuyue standing by the lake in plain clothes from a distance, his cold eyes shrank, and he walked over.

"You're looking for me, what's the matter?"

Gong Chuyue looked sideways and saw Mu Jinghong's extremely impatient face, she was not annoyed, but stretched out her hand to summon a boat, and then said, "Let's get on the boat and take a look at the beautiful scenery of Liuyang Lake." ”

Mu Jinghong didn't appreciate it, so he looked away and said, "Don't play tricks, let's talk about something quickly." ”

Gong Chuyue smiled like a flower, a little charming: "Seventh Prince, don't worry, this is broad daylight, and I can't eat you in public." ”

After that, she got on the boat first, and Mu Jinghong followed with her eyes.

The boatman bent the pole and slowly sailed the boat into the center of the lake, Gong Chuyue stood at the bow of the boat, looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him, and sighed lightly: "Do you know, why did I ask you to be in this Liuyang Lake?" ”

Mu Jinghong didn't speak, Gong Chuyue continued: "The last time I saw Ye Zhengbai was in the small pavilion of Liuyang Lake, at that time, I begged him not to send him to death, but he still went for Ling Jiantong, and in a fit of anger, I threw the white jade he gave me into this lake. ”

When Gong Chuyue said this, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, but Mu Jinghong lowered her eyes and saw the piece of white jade he was wearing around his neck, which was the one given by Ye Zhengbai.

"How did you find it after that?"

Gong Chuyue smiled a little bitterly, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the shore where the boat was getting farther and farther away: "After Ye Zhengbai died, I went from that place to this place until I found this piece of white jade, in fact, that day, I thought about my own life, but this white jade saved me and let me survive to this day." ”

Hearing Gong Chuyue say this, Mu Jinghong suddenly felt that she was very sad, she obviously had Ye Zhengbai in her heart, so why did she do this last night?

"Since you like my eldest brother, you shouldn't do such a thing to betray him."

Gong Chuyue looked back at Mu Jinghong, and said word by word: "Do you think I am willing?" If it weren't for Ling Jiantong, would I have fallen to where I am today?! ”

"You are wrong, the eldest brother has always been righteous, even if he was a stranger at the time, he would definitely save it, Gong Chuyue, you don't know the eldest brother at all, that's why you did such a ridiculous thing."

Gong Chuyue smiled and took two steps back: "I don't understand, I don't understand, what if I don't understand, he is dead, the only thought I have to live now is to let Ling Jiantong live better than die, let her become like me, taste the pain of losing her beloved." ”

"You're really crazy." Mu Jinghong looked at Gong Chuyue's madness, and felt pathetic, pitiful and hateful in an instant.

"So, let's get back to business, I remember, you and Ling Jiantong's marriage hasn't been requested yet, right?"

"What do you want to do?"

Gong Chuyue's eyes dimmed, and she said leisurely: "Without the emperor's marriage, this marriage can also be stopped, I want you to go to the emperor today to ask for a decree and allow me to marry you." ”

"Don't think about it, I won't marry you." Mu Jinghong's eyes sank, and as soon as these words came out, they were like a rock.

"Before, I thought about giving you some time to think about it, but now I regret it, Mu Jinghong, you don't have the right to choose, even if it's for Ye Zhengbai, you have to be responsible for me for a lifetime."

Her words were prickly, and they poked at Mu Jinghong's soft underbelly.

But even if he agreed to Ye Zhengbai, Mu Jinghong didn't want to do anything to hurt Ling Jiantong.

"I can promise you anything else, even if you want my life, I can give it to you immediately, but if I marry you, it is absolutely impossible."

Gong Chuyue had already thought of this result, she stepped back step by step, and said sharply: "Since you don't marry me, then I will die, I see how you are worthy of Ye Zhengbai under Jiuquan!" ”

Mu Jinghong turned around, but saw a huge splash in the center of the lake, and Gong Chuyue really jumped down!

"Gong Chuyue!" Mu Jinghong looked at the calm water, and in a hurry, he jumped down alone.

Mu Jinghong's water nature is very good, and after a while, he saw Gong Chuyue who was sinking down, he grabbed her, and swam desperately to the water, he finally pulled Gong Chuyue back to the boat with the help of the boatman, Gong Chuyue didn't drown for long, tilted her head and spit a few mouthfuls of water, and then sobered up.

Mu Jinghong sat on the bow of the boat, his chest rising and falling violently, panting.

Gong Chuyue lay there, looking up at him, still not giving up and said: "Mu Jinghong, I have always done what I say, if you don't marry me, I have a thousand and ten thousand ways to die." ”

Mu Jinghong was really defeated, and he lost completely.

He stood up, looked down at the embarrassed Gong Chuyue, and said, "Since you want the title of the seventh princess, then I will give it to you." ”
