Chapter 19: The Past
Lu Ruoqing continued: "If this speculation is true, Lu Zheng'er is my aunt's biological daughter!" ”
Her eyes flickered, "Then ......, my aunt usually protects her, but today she desperately protects her, and even wants to strangle me in anger, so it makes sense." ”
"This ......, this can't be." Gu's mind was a little messy.
"When Aunt Wang gave birth, was there anything wrong?" Lu Ruoqing asked.
"...... of the year"
Gu's eyes flickered, recalling the past back then, and his face changed more and more, "Actually, seriously speaking, no one in the Lu family has ever seen Aunt Wang. ”
"No one has seen it?!" This time it was Lu Ruoqing's turn to be shocked.
"Hmm." Gu nodded, and then said, "At that time, I was still young and in good health, and I had a good relationship with your father. ”
Her gaze lit up with a layer of embarrassment.
"One day, your father suddenly came back with a child."
"It was said that he had a love affair overnight and had this child, but the child's biological mother had died in childbirth, so he brought it back to raise."
"Therefore, Aunt Wang has never entered the door of the Lu family at all, and no one has seen her."
"That's right." Lu Ruoqing's heart sank more and more.
"Hey......" Gu sighed, "I also had a relationship with your father for this." ”
She reminisced about the past.
"Later, I thought, Aunt Wang's mother is dead, so why should I bother with a dead person?"
"Besides, Zheng'er is just a concubine, but if she gives some dowry silver, she will not divide the family property in the future, so there is really no need to be angry."
"Later, my aunt adopted Lu Zheng'er again." Lu Ruoqing answered.
"That's right." Gu nodded, "Lu Zheng'er doesn't need me to raise her, nor does she need me to discipline her, and I can't see her a few times a year, so I don't care about it." ”
"At that time, was there anything wrong with my aunt?!"
Lu Ruoqing suddenly grasped the crux of the problem.
"Your aunt ......"
Gu Shi pondered for a moment and slowly recalled.
At that time, she had already returned to her parents' house as a widow. Maybe it was because she was in a bad mood, she had a serious illness, and then she hid in the house and refused to go out, and I didn't see her a few times. ”
"How long have you been sick?"
"Almost a year, right?" After Gu Shi said this, his eyes lit up, "Could it be that your aunt is not actually sick at all, but ......, but pregnant!" ”
"Quite possibly!"
"This ......, this is ridiculous."
"I guessed a little bit wrong just now."
Lu Ruoqing analyzed: "According to this situation, Aunt Wang may have been a fictitious person back then, and she didn't exist at all!" There is nothing to steal beams and change pillars, only darkness Chen Cang! ”
Gu also understood.
"You mean, there is no such thing as Aunt Wang at all!"
She was shocked: "It was your aunt who was pregnant, pretended to be sick for more than a year, and then gave birth to Lu Zheng'er, and let your father take it back to say that it was his affair." ”
"yes, that's probably it!"
"Yes." Gu Shi suddenly nodded slightly.
Suddenly realized: "At that time, your father and I were very young, and the relationship was just right, it was the first few years like glue, and he shouldn't have gone outside to have fun." ”
Lu Ruoqing frowned and said, "It's a pity, all this is just our guess." Not to mention that we guessed wrong, even if we did, we don't have any evidence. ”
"Your dad should know the inside story!"
"Mother." Lu Ruoqing smiled helplessly.
"If the guess is wrong, and you suspect that your aunt has an illicit child for no reason, how can your father not feel sorry for your sister and be angry with you?"
"If the speculation is true, then my father hid it for my aunt back then, how can he tell you now that he has ruined my aunt's reputation?"
A hint of gloom flashed in Gu's eyes, "Yes, it's useless to ask your father." ”
Lu Ruoqing smiled and said, "I'll find a way to verify this matter, mother......, don't think about it first." Your body is weak, it is important to take good care of your body, and it hurts your body if you think about it too much. ”
Gu sighed and said, "Hey, I'm really useless. ”
"Mother, don't say that."
Lu Ruoqing held her mother's hand tightly and said gently: "You are not in good health, it's not your fault." ”
She carefully persuaded, "If you always sigh like this, it will not help you to take care of your body, nor will it be beneficial to your mood, so why bother?" In the future, I will relax and recuperate. ”
Gu Shi was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes suddenly turned red, "Ruoqing, mother...... mother, mother is not as transparent as you." ”
Lu Ruoqing said in her heart, she is a person who has lived for two lifetimes, how can she be the same? The deceit she has experienced, the hardships and pains she has endured, I am afraid that few people can catch up.
Gu Shi wiped the corners of his eyes, and said: "Mother promises you, you won't sigh so much in the future, you have to live, and you have to live well!" ”
"Mother...... you can't be a motherless child!
She gritted her teeth and said, "Whoever dares to hurt you, my mother will also fight with her life to protect it!" ”
Lu Ruoqing's eyes were also a little astringent, and she smiled: "Well, we all have to be good." ”
The mother and daughter had a hearty conversation.
Lu Ruoqing saw that the hour was not early, so she asked her mother to go back to rest first, and she herself was a little exhausted.
Outside the window, the moonlight was shining.
Everything in the night is quiet and peaceful.
Lu Ruoqing was drowsy, and in her mind, the chaos of the day gradually faded into obscurity.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly felt a cold wind drifting in, and she couldn't help but open her eyes in fright, got up and looked around, but she didn't find anything wrong.
Lu Ruoqing breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that there are so many things that happened today that she is suspicious.
She was about to relax and lie down and continue to sleep, when suddenly a black shadow rushed towards her, as fast as lightning!
Before she could make any sound, she felt a pain in the back of her head, and then she couldn't move.
"It's me, don't shout!" In the darkness, Xiao Shaoxuan's voice sounded suddenly.
Lu Ruoqing's eyes widened, looking at the man in front of her, and she couldn't help but grit her teeth.
She whispered, "Are you crazy? What are you doing in my boudoir in the middle of the night?! ”
"Come and see if you're dead."
“…………”
In the night, Xiao Shaoxuan's handsome face revealed a touch of bewitchment, "If you die, what will happen to my antidote?" ”
Lu Ruoqing asked angrily: "Who said I was dead?" ”
Xiao Shaoxuan's thin lips pursed and did not answer.
Lu Ruoqing suddenly realized.
The person who assassinated King Huan was indeed him! He knew that she had been shot, but he didn't know whether she was alive or dead, so he came to find out.
Lu Ruoqing sneered: "Actually sent someone to assassinate His Royal Highness King Huan, it's not a small courage!" ”
Xiao Shaoxuan was not polite, and immediately ridiculed her, "In order to be the woman of King Huan, she even disregarded her own life." ”
Lu Ruoqing frowned, "You don't want to talk nonsense." ”
Xiao Shaoxuan looked at her carefully, "It seems that you can't die." ”
After a change of words, he said, "That's right!" If you die before you enter the gate of King Huan's mansion, wouldn't it be a loss? You can't bear to die even if you think about it. ”
"............" Lu Ruoqing choked angrily.
She and Xiao Shaoxuan are natural enemies, right? As soon as they met, they spoke ill of each other.
Xiao Shaoxuan sneered, "It seems that I was speechless when I said it." ”
"You're full, aren't you?!"
Lu Ruoqing really couldn't bear it, and said angrily: "What I do, it has nothing to do with you, can you target me everywhere like this?" ”
Xiao Shaoxuan pursed his thin lips.
He also knew that it was inappropriate to talk to a woman, but when he saw her, he was full of anger and couldn't help it!
His heart eased, and then he calmed down and said, "You give me the recipe for the antidote, and I won't look for you again in the future." ”
"Huh." Lu Ruoqing sneered, "Of course you won't look for me again." ”
"You don't want to?"
"I'm crazy to give you the recipe for the antidote!"
Lu Ruoqing knew that he couldn't solve the prescription, so he was not in a hurry at all.
"If you have the formula, then I ......, and I should be a dead man."
Xiao Shaoxuan said with a deep face: "How long do you want to blackmail me?!" ”
"Whoever told you to kill people at every turn."
Lu Ruoqing did not back down in the slightest, and said calmly: "I said, I will prepare the antidote for you every month, without interfering with each other, and each other will be safe." ”
"You're going to blackmail me for the rest of your life!"
"I just want to live a few more days."
“…………”
The two are deadlocked, and neither can convince each other.
After a while, Lu Ruoqing couldn't help it first.
"Let's go! This is my boudoir, and if you are a big man and are known, won't it ruin my reputation? Next time I take medicine, find a girl to ask me. ”
Xiao Shaoxuan sneered, "What does it have to do with me to ruin your reputation?" ”
Lu Ruoqing, "............"
If she could, she really wanted to strangle Xiao Shaoxuan.
Unfortunately, she couldn't.
Lu Ruoqing knows very well the danger of Xiao Shaoxuan, and in the future, the king of Zhenbei, who will be able to shock the imperial court and lead an army of 300,000, does not know how many lives have been stained on his hands! She ...... and couldn't afford to mess with him.
In fact, I have thought about poisoning the antidote before.
But if she does this, she poisons Xiao Shaoxuan, and the Lu family will be destroyed!
She doesn't care about her grandmother, Yun Lu and Lu Zheng'er, or even her father, but she can't let go of her mother and brother.
So, she and Xiao Shaoxuan fell into a predicament.
She couldn't kill him directly, and she couldn't kill him, and offended Xiao Shaoxuan and had to pinch the antidote.
Then in the future, Xiao Shaoxuan will endure again and again, and look for her again and again, it's really a headache to think about.
"Give me the antidote for next month." Xiao Shaoxuan said in a low voice.
"Nope! It hasn't been matched yet. Lu Ruoqing refused.
"You ......" Xiao Shaoxuan was angry and was about to say something, when a series of footsteps suddenly sounded outside.
"Don't talk!" Lu Ruoqing said in a low voice.
"Miss? Is the wound painful? The voice of the medicinal fragrance sounded outside the door.
Then he pushed open the door, carried a lantern, and walked in with his clothes on.
"I heard Miss speak just now, I didn't hear clearly, do you want to drink water?"
"Nope! No need. Lu Ruoqing hurriedly refused.
"Do you want to change the dressing?" Yao Xiang asked.
"No......, no need."
Lu Ruoqing has never been so nervous.
Because of the ......, Xiao Shaoxuan was by her side, hidden in the quilt, and the two were almost close together.
----It's just too much.
