"Ah Yun won't marry her, it's useless to worry about it."

For his daughter's self-confidence, Ling Lie snorted, too optimistic.

"If he weren't the prince, it would be useless for anyone to care. But daughter, you have to be mentally prepared, even if it's not Li Duqing, he will have other women in the future. He lowered his voice again, "If you become the prince again, you will suffer it!" ”

"No, he said he would only marry me."

Ling Lie hummed again, refilled the cup with wine, and drank it all.

"Dad told you that a man's words are easy to believe. Now that you are young and kind to him, of course he swears that he only likes you. Have you ever heard that sentence, the most important thing is that you can't stay in the world, and Zhu Yan is a flowery rhetoric. Years are fleeting, youth is hard to last, and he will definitely get tired of it in seven or eight years. There has never been a shortage of women in the harem, and there are endless deceits, competition for favor and love. Do you see that the lady in the temple today is very different from last year? ”

Ling Yue smiled at her father's bitter words, but most of the concubines on the table had indeed changed, which made her feel unprovoked.

Suddenly, she thought of Qiu Xin, and she searched for her several times but didn't see her.

"Dad, why didn't you see Concubine Wen? Did she give birth to a child? ”

Ling Lie hurriedly made a gesture of silence, as if he had touched a taboo.

Ling Yue didn't ask anymore, but her doubts deepened in her heart. It happened that Han Xiao brought Xue Yu to look for her, and the sister-in-law left the table and went outside the hall.

"Sister-in-law, what happened to Concubine Wen?"

Han Xiao pulled her to a place to avoid people, and then she told the story.

"Qiu Xin is no longer a concubine, she was beaten into the cold palace by the emperor."

Seeing her surprise, Han Xiao said in a lower voice: "She and the guards had a tryst, and the emperor was furious, and he didn't deal with it for the sake of the child in her womb. But then do you know what happened? That kid is not the emperor's, but also the guard's! The emperor was angry and sent her into the cold palace, she became depressed and sick, and the child was not saved. Qiu Xin had provoked too many people to hate her before, and once she was in trouble, there was no one who visited her, and there were many people who fell into the well. I've heard that the meals delivered are all rancid and in a very bad condition. ”

Han Xiao shook her head and sighed, seeing the sympathy in Ling Yue's eyes, she persuaded: "Yue'er, Qiu Xin's mistake is unusual, although you have a personal relationship with her, you can't be confused and get into trouble, you know?" ”

"I know sister-in-law."

Thinking of something again, Han Xiao didn't vomit or be unhappy: "Yue'er, do you really want to marry the Fourth Highness?" This is not the case, and he is not destined to belong to you alone. But the second brother is different, the Xue family has not taken concubines since his grandfather's generation, the second brother is a talent, and he has a deep affection for you, so think about it again? ”

Ling Yue thanked her for her kindness, looked at the cold moon with a white light above her head, and had a little bitterness in her shallow smile: "Life is too long, maybe I will leave before he likes others?" ”

When you come suddenly, you should be silent when you disappear, right?

She's not a mediocre person, it's just that there's no trace of it. She hoped it wouldn't happen, at least not so soon.

Han Xiao nodded her forehead and said "Bah" a few times: "It's all New Year's soon, what are you talking about?" ”

"Don't talk about it, it's too cold, sister-in-law, let's go in!"

Back in her seat, Han Ming noticed that she was depressed, but she only said that she was a little sleepy after drinking too much.

"Then you can rest for a while, and we will go home when the feast is over."

"Okay."

She looked at Ah Yun who was surrounded by everyone from afar, and he was not used to socializing, and he was around the horses, which was very interesting.

"It's hard for him."

She picked up the wine in front of her and drank it again.

Qian Yingying slipped over while Qian Jin was toasting Ye Shijing, Ling Yue knew everything on her mind, and the two of them tacitly drank it.

"Yue'er, I want to get married."

"Marry whom?"

"I don't know. Why don't I set up a ring to recruit relatives? ”

I don't know if I was drunk or scared, the wine in Ling Yue's cup was sprinkled on the sleeve of my shirt.

The cuffs embroidered with pink peony overflowed with the refreshing aroma of wine, which made her intoxicated.

"Do you want to recruit relatives?"

Qian Yingying looked at her blankly: "Why is it competing?" I don't know martial arts, and I will suffer a lot if I do it in the future! I'm talking about the ring is Bimei, whoever is the most handsome, gentle, and personable I will marry! ”

Ling Yue held his chin and smiled: "Ning Yao is very consistent. ”

Qian Yingying smiled reluctantly in her big eyes: "Good horses don't eat back grass, I'm not the one he calls and comes and goes." That's all, you can help me check when the time comes! ”

"Believe me so much?" Ling Yue pinched her face, and the tears that Qian Yingying was trying to hold rolled down and dripped on her fingertips.

Taking the opportunity to wipe away her tears by brushing her hair, Qian Yingying's smile crystalline.

"It's not all about believing it, anyway, the husband you picked for me, if I am bullied in the future, I will find you!"

"Alright then, I'm your thug!"

The word "thug" instantly crushed Qian Yingying, and she couldn't suppress the thought of Ning bastard in her mind.

"I've met you these few times, either as a town or as a thug, I'm used to it."

The sound and smile are like in front of her, he is the lingering that she can't say, can't think and can't forget.

At this moment, Ning Yao was in Nanwangfu and told Yanxia about Yang Yi's death, there was no expression on her face, Ning Yao couldn't see any emotions in her, and once thought that she couldn't stand the blow.

"Yanxia, are you okay?"

Yanxia cried and smiled at him: "Do you want me to be okay?" ”

"I" Ning Yao couldn't take her words, looked at her slightly bloated body, said "take care of yourself" and left.

"Ning Yao!" Smoke shouted at her back.

Ning Yao turned around: "Is there something wrong?" ”

Yanxia walked in front of him step by step.

It's a short road, and she's walked half a life.

She had deeply hated his refusal, but she deeply expected his concern.

Just like just now, when he said the phrase "take care of yourself", she instantly threw off her armor.

"I didn't voluntarily commit to Yang Yi, I drank too much that night and treated him as you."

Ning Yao's eyes widened instantly, and he was at a loss for what to do when he looked at Yanxia who was crying silently in front of him.

"Yanxia, do you want to leave the palace?"

"Where can I go?"

Ning Yao didn't dare to look at her with a hopeful gaze, so he avoided it and landed on a bare tree, where there was a bird's nest, but it was empty.

Empty, just carrying his deep guilt.

"Go back to your hometown, or Yang Yi's hometown, he has a mother alive and can raise his posthumous son with you"

Yanxia smiled bitterly: "I don't like Yang Yi at all, he's gone, why do you think I'll give birth to his child?" ”

"His mother didn't know he was dead, and if he did, the old man wouldn't be able to accept it. If you give birth to a child and raise it, it will not only be a comfort to her, but also a future for you to rely on."

His sincere words made Yanxia shake her head.

He wiped his red and swollen eyes with a handkerchief, and suddenly put down something in his heart.

"Ning Yao, you are a good person, but you are just a good person, and you are really not a good match. If you are not self-righteous, maybe you and Qian Yingying have already married. ”
