Chapter 299: The Sin of Desire

Xie Langhua avoided Sima Rui without a trace, and she said softly: "Your Majesty, the etiquette must not be abolished!"

She looked gentle and detached.

Sima Rui's hand stiffened slightly, he looked at Xie Langhua intently, and said in a low voice: "I always thought we were friends. ”

A flash of loss flashed across his face.

"Your Majesty, what are your orders for coming here today?" Xie Langhua looked at Sima Rui and smiled faintly.

There were only two of them in the antechamber.

Sima Rui suddenly took a step forward, and his hands suddenly landed on Xie Langhua's shoulders.

Xie Langhua looked at Sima Rui and frowned slightly, and she subconsciously stepped back.

Unexpectedly, Sima Rui pressed her shoulders tightly with both hands, not letting her back a bit.

The flickering candle flame stretched the figures of the two people long, and the house was full of incense, full of quiet plum fragrance.

"Langhua. Sima Rui looked at Xie Langhua for a moment, he had never called Xie Langhua like this, his voice was low and hoarse.

"Your Majesty is unconscionable. Xie Langhua flicked her sleeves, and she easily pushed Sima Rui away.

"Would you like to be my queen?" Sima Rui, who had always been moody, flashed a trace of invisible nervousness on his face, and he looked at Xie Langhua intently, his whole heart hanging.

He both expected her answer and feared his.

Under Sima Rui's gaze, Xie Langhua frowned slightly, and she said slowly with a calm face: "Did Your Majesty ask this sentence?

Unexpectedly, instead of answering his question, Xie Langhua asked rhetorically.

Sima Rui slowly lowered his hand, he looked at Xie Langhua and said word by word: "Now it is only Sima Rui who is standing in front of you." ”

The corners of Xie Langhua's mouth hooked: "I don't want to, Your Majesty also knows that I only have Ah Su in my heart, he gave birth to me and I am his person, and he died and I am also his person, and there will be no change in this life." ”

Sima Rui's eyes suddenly dimmed, he wandered alone in the dormitory countless times, from day to night, and only mustered up the courage to dare to go to the Xie family to ask her in person, he was unwilling to give her a cold holy decree in his capacity as His Majesty, regardless of her wishes.

This answer was both expected and unaffordable.

"Langhua, Cui Su has gone, he will never come back, you are going to marry after all, I don't care if you have someone else in your heart, I am willing to build a pure land for you in the harem, and wait until you are willing. Sima Rui took a few steps closer, and he and Xie Langhua were close at hand.

"What if I don't marry in my life?" Xie Langhua smiled faintly, even though they didn't want to admit it, but she was already Ah Su's wife, and from the moment Ah Su left, she decided never to marry again in this life.

"Will your parents agree?" asked Sima Rui, frowning.

"They'll understand me. Xie Langhua said lightly.

Sima Rui then asked: "What about the Wang family? Will the Wang family let you go? The proposal to make you the queen is the handiwork of the Wang family, and they have a way to force you to comply." ”

Xie Langhua was silent, and what Sima Rui said was the worry in her heart.

Since Wang Yan and Chen have this idea, if they can't make a plan, they will inevitably have another plan, which is really impossible to prevent.

"Do you think you are the opponent of the Wang family? Have you ever thought about what you should do if your family is affected?" Sima Rui asked Xie Langhua softly.

There are many things that never have a choice.

Xie Langhua looked at Sima Rui intently, she hooked the corners of her lips and couldn't say a word.

How could she be the opponent of the Wang family?

"Langhua, be my queen! You just need to stand behind me, you don't have to do anything, I will block this storm for you, I will never force you to do anything." Sima Rui said very sincerely, and he spoke word by word very slowly.

Xie Langhua could see that every word and sentence he said was from the bottom of his heart, this sentence was more like an oath, and she knew that people like Sima Rui were also true to their word.

But even so, she still didn't want to.

"I only have one husband in this life, and that is Ah Su. Xie Langhua said this sentence without thinking about it, this is her answer, no matter how many times he asks, she will not change.

"Langhua ......," Sima Rui said what he wanted to say.

"It's cold, Your Majesty, please go back!" Xie Langhua no longer gave him a chance to speak, she looked at Sima Ruiyingying, and turned to leave without looking at him.

Sima Rui stared at her back, his eyes falling silent little by little.

"Miss. As soon as Xie Langhua came out, Fang Huanyun immediately greeted her, holding a lantern in her hand, illuminating the ground under Xie Langhua's feet.

Xie Langhua bowed slightly at her.

The two of them walked towards Xie Langhua's courtyard together.

The night was already deep.

When Sima Rui came out, Xie Langhua was gone.

He came with hope, and when he returned, he was left with nothing but boundless loss.

Not a word of Sima Rui's words fell into Fang Huanyun's ears, and she could hear Xie Langhua's reply clearly, so she didn't say much, and sent Xie Langhua back to the room and retreated.

Some things still have to be decided by the eldest lady.

But the Wang family is a big trouble after all.

Xie Langhua was lying on the couch alone, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep for a long time.

It wasn't until the dead of night that Wang Xuan put down the brush in his hand.

Ah Ho and Ah Bi were still by his side.

He slowly got up and moved his somewhat stiff arm, glanced at Ah He and Ah Bi and said, "It's late at night, you guys retreat!"

Ah Ho and Ah Bi were slightly stunned.

Before Ah Bi could speak, Ah He said to Wang Xuanying Yingyifu: "Lang Jun has been sitting for a whole day, he must be very tired, let the slave and maid loosen Lang Jun's shoulders!"

She walked up to Wang Xuan as she spoke, and her hand was about to fall on him.

Wang Xuan's eyes sank, he dodged away from Ah He, looked at the two of them and said undoubtedly, "Stand down." ”

Ah He and Ah Bi knelt down instantly, and the two of them looked at Wang Xuan pitifully and said: "The master mother let the slaves and maids serve Lang Jun every step of the way, the slaves and maids dare not slack off, let the slaves and maids serve Lang Jun to wash and go to bed!"

Wang Xuan looked at them lightly: "Could it be that you only have the master mother in your eyes, and there is no me as a gentleman?"

Ah Ho and Ah Bi's faces changed suddenly, and the two got up and retreated.

Only Wang Xuan was left alone in the room.

"Wang Li. He glanced around and shouted.

"What does Lang Jun command? Wang Li walked in instantly.

"It is the handiwork of my father and mother to propose that Xie Langhua should be established!" Wang Xuan said slowly.

Wang Li arched his hand and said, "Lang Jun is really smart. ”

This matter is not the handiwork of the head of the family and the housemother, in order to test Lang Jun's attitude, but fortunately, when Lang Jun heard the news, he did not show any abnormality.

Wang Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and before he could speak, Wang Li arched his hand and said: "Just when Sima Rui went to Xie's house, he personally asked Xie Langhua if he was willing to be his queen. ”

Before Wang Li finished speaking, Wang Xuan hooked his lips and smiled, and he said very firmly: "She won't be willing." ”

Under Wang Xuan's gaze, Wang Li nodded lightly.

"I'm afraid that my father and mother won't stop there, so you send someone to keep an eye on them quietly, and report it to me as soon as there is any trouble. Wang Xuan said, a trace of worry flashed on his face.

It was precisely because he knew them too well that he did not dare to take them lightly.

"Yes. Wang Li arched his hand and said.

Wang Xuan waved his hand and asked Wang Li to retreat.

Before dawn on the second day, when Xie Changan went to court, he ordered to go down and wait for the old lady to wake up and send her back to the old house.

This time he has made up his mind, no matter how much the old lady makes trouble, he will not let her live in the Hou Mansion.

He has been back in Beijing for a long time, and it is time to go back.

He's not going to be as confused as he used to be.

In the early dynasties, no one mentioned the matter of the establishment of the posterior again.

The old lady was clamoring to see Xie Chang'an, but Xie Chang'an had already given an order, before he came back from the next court, the old lady must be sent back, the guards and servants did not dare to delay, no matter how the old lady cried, she was sent back to the old mansion.

Xiao Shi, Xie Langhua and Xie Heng did not come forward.

It's not that they're ruthless, it's that the old lady is disappointing.

After two days, even though Xie Changan was reluctant, he still set off to return to the border pass, before leaving, he repeatedly told Xie Langhua, don't wronged himself, don't be afraid, if there is anything to inform him as soon as possible, he will definitely rush back.

And so the days calmed down.

Cui Yin has never come to the door to ask for Cui You's ashes again, he has been in charge of the Cui family for decades, and he naturally has the ability to calm the turmoil brought by Cui You.

One day is colder, and in a blink of an eye, the New Year is approaching.

However, the calmer the days, the more uneasy Xie Langhua felt in his heart.

On this day, a very exciting news suddenly came from the border pass, Xiliang suddenly sent troops and had captured two cities in Yan State.

This news made the entire court panic, and even the huge Yanjing City was filled with a solemn atmosphere.

When Xie Langhua learned the news, she chuckled in her heart, and an ominous premonition hit her heart.

Yan and Xiliang are adjacent to each other, and Xie Chang'an has been guarding the border pass all these years, during which the two countries have repeatedly fought each other, and Xiliang has never had the upper hand, how could Xiliang capture the two cities of Yan in such a short time this time.

Xie Langhua didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately asked Fang Huanyun to send Xie Jiayingwei to the border pass.

On the second day, before the Xie family shadow guard arrived at the border gate, another news came that shocked everyone.

Not to mention that Yan Guo lost another city, Xie Changan, as the commander of Yan State, was also captured by Xiliang.

The news spread in Yanjing.

"Langhua, how is this good?" Xiao Shi and Xie Heng looked at Xie Langhua with worried eyes, and Xiao Shi even looked like he was sitting still.

For Xie Changan, she has relented.

In the end, it was a young husband and wife, even though there were a lot of sadness and sadness along the way, but after all, there was still a little bit of beauty, plus what Xie Changan did later, although Xiao Shi didn't say it, he had already forgiven Xie Changan in his heart.

Chun Tao and Fang Huanyun were afraid, and the two of them also looked worried.

"Mother......" Xie Langhua spoke, and she hadn't finished her words yet.

Suddenly rushed in a lot of Imperial Forest Army, everyone in the room was shocked, the Imperial Forest Army led by him arched his hand to Xie Langhua and said: "Miss, someone in the army reported that Xie Chang'an collaborated with the enemy and treason, so that my Dayan lost three cities in a row, and now the evidence is conclusive, I am tired of the eldest lady, Mrs., and the prince of the world to go with us." ”
