After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo

Chapter 128 Unforgivable
"You must know that in Gong Country, if a woman dresses up as a man to join the army, it is a serious crime that will kill her head. But General Liu is such an upright person that he exposed her without any hesitation."

"Father originally wanted to calm things down and use the noble concubine's illustrious military exploits during this period to excuse her. But he didn't expect that General Liu, who had been upright all his life, knelt down in court and begged his father to deal with the noble concubine according to law."

Jiang Ning listened, and the movement of chewing grapes gradually slowed down. She looked at the curtain that fluctuated with the bumps of the vehicle, as if she was distracted.

Inexplicably, she seemed to recall the appearance of the imperial concubine and General Liu at the birthday banquet not long ago, when they fought tit for tat in front of everyone.

At that time, Jiang Ning thought that it was because of some friction between the father and daughter these days that this happened.

It was just a small fight between father and daughter, not a very important matter.

Only now did she finally understand that there was such a deep estrangement hidden under the seemingly petty dispute between the father and daughter at the banquet that day.

"General Liu, why did he do this?" Jiang Ning asked with some difficulty.

Obviously, what Liu Yue did was far beyond her cognition.

She has a happy family since she was a child, and her parents regard her and her sister as the darlings of their hearts.

Jiang Ning has been naughty and impetuous since he was a child, and he likes to mingle with boys. He also caused many disasters, big and small, and was scolded by his parents.

But in the end, her parents also took the initiative to clean up the mess for her, and couldn't bear her to receive the slightest scolding from others, let alone something related to her life.

Mu Jingzhao was slightly taken aback by her question, and then he said slowly, "General Liu has always been upright, strictly enforced the law, and put the country's righteousness before everything else."

Mu Jingzhao's words not only failed to resolve Jiang Ning's doubts, but actually deepened her confusion.

"Even before my own daughter's life?"

The carriage gradually drove up the wide and flat road, and the intermittent bumping sound gradually disappeared. On both sides of the road, towering old trees completely covered a small piece of sky above the road, blocking out the sunlight as much as possible.

The carriage gradually darkened, and Jiang Ning leaned against the corner, almost blending into the dim light.

"General Liu is upright and will always put everything before the righteousness of his family and country, even his own wealth and life."

Mu Jingzhao's voice was very soft and slow, as if he would be drowned out by the sound of the horse's hooves hitting the ground if he didn't pay attention.

But there was a sense of coldness without any emotion in it, which made Jiang Ning's heart tremble.

Jiang Ning closed her eyes, inexplicably, she felt that the dark and oppressive atmosphere made her have difficulty breathing.

It was hard for her to imagine what kind of situation Liu Jinfu was in back then. In just one day, she changed from a proud girl with great military exploits to a prisoner who everyone shouted for beatings.

And all this is just because she is a woman.

If it was yourself, what would you do?
Jiang Ning asked herself softly in her heart. After a long time, she still couldn't come up with a definite answer.

But there was only one thing she was sure of.

She will not forgive.

Life after life will never forgive.

Whether it's the so-called upright father, or the monarch who put her in a dangerous situation.

Jiang Ning didn't speak for a long time, she lowered her eyebrows and eyes, as if she was distracted, only the violent ups and downs of her chest showed that she was still awake.

Seeing her like this, Mu Jingzhao didn't stop talking. He adjusted his posture and planned to close his eyes and rest by leaning on the car.

Just when he was about to close his eyes, Jiang Ning spoke again. Her voice was very soft and shallow, but it seemed to reveal infinite sadness and lamentation.

"What then?"

"Later——" Mu Jingzhao took a deep breath, "Later, I told everyone how I got along with the imperial concubine in the military camp, and told everyone present that we had already privately decided to live forever, and I, perhaps promised that the imperial concubine would definitely Marry her back home. So, my father lenients me and promises my marriage with the noble concubine, and also takes advantage of the situation to dismiss the noble concubine's guilt."

When the story is heard here, it seems that everything has come to an end.

Jiang Ning's mind was in a mess. Listening to Mu Jingzhao's words, she knew that all these stories had already ended, but she felt vaguely that something was not right.

This feeling is like two countries with long-standing grievances provoking each other countless times and actively arming each other. In the end, the light handshake between the two sides on the battlefield is as absurd as it is.

Jiang Ning couldn't tell what the problem was. She mumbled her lips for a long time, but she didn't clear up her messy thoughts. In the end, she still hesitated to speak.

"Has the emperor ever—" to the imperial concubine?

She had just uttered half of her words, and she swallowed them slowly. Under the circumstances, such words always seemed a bit inappropriate.

Mu Jingzhao glanced at her, but chuckled uncontrollably.

Jiang Ning was a little confused by his sudden laughter. After a long time, she asked with a strange expression.

"why are you laughing?"

Mu Jingzhao coughed twice, managed to stabilize his emotions, and then said helplessly, "I seem to have a habit of Longyang?"

The carriage bumped violently, and Jiang Ning's body was squeezed and tilted with the carriage. She leaned on the seat and barely sat upright.

According to what Mu Jingzhao said, he never knew about Liu Jinfu's daughter after everything happened.

However, after many years of marriage, it is hard to say that there will not be some love between men and women.

Jiang Ning was silent for a few seconds, expressing her doubts about Mu Jingzhao's words, she muttered in a low voice, "What's the matter if they are all men? As a woman, I will be deeply impressed by the beauty of the imperial concubine."

Her voice was vague, but every word fell into Mu Jingzhao's ears.

After hearing what Jiang Ning said, Mu Jingzhao looked nervous, as if facing an enemy, "Then it seems that you should have less contact with the noble concubine."

His expression was a little too serious, which made Jiang Ning laugh out loud.

After laughing, she felt as if she was shrouded in a deeper loss.

She felt like she wanted to ask something, but she couldn't ask.

Not long ago, every word Mu Jingzhao said lingered in her ears.

She closed her eyes, and simply stopped talking, just waiting for herself to temporarily forget all this in the midst of the hunt.

Before he knew it, Jiang Ning actually fell into a peaceful sleep amidst the rocking and bumping of the carriage.

In the dream, she was a female general who galloped by on horseback, exuberant amidst the cheers of the people, and also a prisoner who was condemned by thousands of people and betrayed her relatives in the hall.
