Chapter 34: Yongshu's confession
Before his words fell, Yongshu's heartbeat had already begun to speed up, but he still had to show calm on his face, "Explain what?" What does the fifth master want to hear? ”
Leaning on the soft backrest, Hongyang tilted his head to look at her, his expression seemed to be casual, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, "The matter between you and Hongxi." ”
Yongshu slowly turned her head sideways, and what met her eyes was the cold eyes of Hongday, who was as cold as autumn frost, and she was not sure what kind of mentality Hongsun was asking for.
Maybe he didn't know it, but was just suspicious, so he deliberately said this to test her, or maybe he already knew about it and deliberately asked to see if she would tell the truth. If she lied, then Hongyang's suspicions would only increase, and he would not trust her even from now on.
But if she tells the truth, there will be two possibilities, one is that this matter has become a knot in Hongtian's heart, and he can't tolerate it and gradually alienates her. Or rather, he is not to blame for the past and no longer cares about the matter.
The possibility of the latter seems to be very small, just because most men are very stingy, and few men can tolerate their women's hearts, even if they are just once, they will feel faceless.
How to answer, this is related to the rest of her life!
didn't listen to her answer, Hongday's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, "What's the matter?" Don't have a story yet? ”
Many people like to explore the truth, but when the truth emerges, how many can accept it? "Are the fifth master sure you want to listen to the truth?"
Hongsun sneered contemptuously, "You can lie too, as long as you make sure I don't find out." ”
Telling a lie requires more lies to be fulfilled, and Yongshu is too lazy to make up a story, let alone being caught in the future, which makes it more and more difficult to clarify.
At this moment, she has been forced into a dead end, and there is no other choice but to gamble and tell what she knows.
"I'm an old acquaintance with Honghui, and we've known each other since before the draft."
As Xiao Jinzi inquired, they really know! Hearing this, the corners of Hongday's eyes twitched slightly, and he was silent for a moment before saying, "Go on." ”
At this time, Yongshu had no way out, so she could only continue, but in fact, she didn't know much about the original owner and Hongxi, so she could only guess with that letter.
"When I was young, I was in love, and I was moved, but I can't make the decision about marriage, and I have to enter the palace draft. On the occasion of the palace election, I was given marriage to you by the emperor, and the holy will cannot be violated, I understood this truth, so I broke off with him. ”
His wife, who had an entanglement with his cousin?
Hearing Yongshu admit this with his own ears, and then recalling the old things, Hongday's heart was like a fire, inexplicably restless!
"On the night of marriage, you refused to have a round room, just for him? You have married me, but you still want to guard him like a jade, this is what you call a break? ”
That may be the reason why the original owner refused to round the house, but Yongshu has never experienced it, because she has a clear conscience and still insists on the original statement,
"The reason for refusing to round the house was that I confessed to the fifth master, because I listened to the rumors and misunderstood the fifth master, and it has nothing to do with outsiders."
Her explanation seemed reasonable, but Hongyang couldn't convince herself to believe, "Master's woman, body and mind must belong to me, I don't allow any woman to have two hearts!" ”
But in Yongshu's opinion, she has never had two hearts, "I already belong to you, don't I?" ”
The two did have a round room, but all this is the appearance, in fact, his heart is like a mirror, "Your body is mine, but your heart is ...... Not with me. ”
It turns out that telling the truth doesn't end well, "The fifth master wants to listen to the truth, and if you doubt me if you tell the truth, then I might as well lie." ”
She's still angry? Why is she angry? Hongyang approached, pinched her chin tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think your lies can be concealed?" ”
Yongshu is not the original owner, she has no love for Hongxi, she just needs to give Hongtian an explanation, it is because of some cruel words, she can get it, without scruples,
"It's too tiring to lie, so I choose to tell the truth. It was true that I once knew each other, and now it is true that I let go, I know my identity clearly, and it is impossible to have anything to do with him anymore, this is my position, my true words!
Everyone has their own past, and this is providential, not something we can choose. Now that I am your wife, I should remember who I am and forget my past. If you are determined to pursue what happened before you got married, then I have nothing to say, let you go. ”
Hongtian shook his hand and let go of her, but there was still doubt in his eyes, "What's the matter?" What is the explanation for your meeting today? ”
Hongyan was already suspicious of Hongyan, if she said that Honghui was going to take her to elope, then it would be impossible to say if she really jumped into the Yellow River!
Yongshu didn't want to hurt others and herself, so she had to hide this matter, "Today he just came to celebrate his birthday in front of my brother, and he happened to meet him, and learned that he had lost the jade pendant, and Yonglan and Xingcai were helping him find the jade pendant, so he said a few words to me by the way." ”
Hongday's jawline tightened, he breathed a deep sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice: "What did you say?" ”
Yongshu avoided the important and replied half-truthfully, trying to dispel his suspicions, "He asked me, how do you treat me, and how are you doing after marriage." ”
Who is Honghui qualified to ask this? Hongyang angrily slapped the tea case, and sneered loudly, "What does it have to do with him whether you are doing well or not?" Even if I don't treat you well, what can he do? He still wants to rob people? ”
Yongshu was shocked by him, but he still had to calm down, and said lightly: "After all, it's an acquaintance, but it's just a polite word, why should the fifth master be angry?" ”
She behaved very calmly, her eyes were not red, and when she talked about it, she was as calm as a bystander, and there was no trace of pity between her eyebrows, as if she had really let go. staring at her, Hongday's eyes flashed suspiciously,
"Can you forget him, forget that past?"
It's only been two or three months, if he says he forgot, Hongtian will definitely not believe it, but if he says he hasn't forgotten, it will hurt his face.
At this moment, Yongshu is like walking on a tightrope, and if he is not careful, he will slip under his feet and fall into the abyss!
With each of his questions, she has to answer carefully, think from his standpoint, and then give the most sincere answer.
"I don't have amnesia, it's impossible to erase a person from memory. Memories can't be erased, but they can be diluted, I've let go of that relationship, sealed that past, and won't have any thoughts about him anymore. ”
Her answer was beyond Hongday's expectations, staring at her for a long time, Hongday asked coldly, "Then do you like me?" ”
