Emperor concubine and phoenix

Chapter 458 Regret, free and easy

This is the place where he lived with Yan'er for more than a year.

The scenery in front of me is still the same, but the building is empty.

Lu Chong stared blankly.

"Since Yiyi entered the mansion, she has kept her duty and treated you fairly. She has never been more polite. What do you want her to do? She is pregnant with the flesh and blood of the Lu family, a living little life Ah, why are you so vicious?"

His beloved girl has always been well-educated, tolerant and gentle. This is the first time someone has labeled her with the word "vicious". What kind of despair should she feel in her heart?

"I haven't done anything to Bai Yiyi, believe it or not, it's up to you."

The feeble refutation was quickly thrown into the abyss by a sentence of questioning.

Lu Chong's face was as pale as paper, and he felt a gray color in front of his eyes.

Why didn't he choose to believe her once?
The girl he likes, the girl he loves deeply, has ever done anything unkind?
Why did he lose his head and give her a fatal blow when she was most desperate and helpless?
To what extent was she in pain, and to what extent was she forced to show such a mocking and sad expression, and complained word by word like weeping blood: "You accepted her into the mansion without my consent; as a concubine Entering the door, but wearing a red wedding dress, I endured it; you kept saying that she was weak, I believed it, and allowed her to be exempted from the daily greetings. Get in front of—"

She was obviously desperate to the extreme at that time, why didn't he hear it?

Not only did he not give her comfort, he didn't stand by her side when she was most vulnerable and helpless, he didn't choose to believe her, instead, the whole family forced her to question her...

Lu Chong staggered, stretched out his hand to support a sycamore tree in the courtyard, and slowly, slowly squatted down, leaning against the tree trunk weakly.

I couldn't help but think of the beautiful vows I once made in my mind.

Lu Chong closed his eyes, hugged his knees with his hands, and buried his head tightly on his knees, surrounded by bouts of dull pain.

……

"Yan'er." Nan Si and Gu Yan rode in the carriage together and headed towards the prime minister's mansion, "Lu Chong is no longer worthy of your liking. Now that you have reconciled, let's do it again and don't think about him anymore."

Gu Yan came back to her senses, smiled lightly, and her brows and eyes were calm and breezy: "Now that I have left the Lu family, I will not think about it anymore. Everything in the past is just an unforgettable experience in my life, and it will be kept in my memory. Just fine."

Nan Si pondered for a moment: "Then Lu Chong will wake up sooner or later. If he comes to ask for your forgiveness, what choice should you make?"

"There's nothing to choose, let the past go." Gu Yan sighed lightly, "It's no longer possible between me and Lu Chong."

Regardless of whether we can see the truth clearly in the future, betrayal is betrayal, the damage has already been done, and no matter how the broken relationship is repaired, it will not return to the original beauty.

Gu Yan leaned against the carriage, her tone was calm: "Bai Yiyi's tricks are too clumsy. She can act for a while, but not for a lifetime. It will be a matter of time before Lu Chong regrets it, but the moment I stepped out of the gate of Lu's house, I followed He doesn't matter anymore."

Nan Si was silent for a moment: "You still have a child in your stomach."

"This child belongs to me alone." Gu Yan said lightly, "It has nothing to do with his Lu family."

Nan Si didn't speak, just looked at her without saying a word.

"What's the matter? Why are you looking at me like this?" Gu Yan raised her eyebrows, "Do you think that I should be heartbroken if I leave Lu Chong, and I would rather die?"

Nan Si shook her head.

There is no one in this world who can't live without leaving.

"I'm just a little surprised." Nan Si smiled, "I'm surprised that sister Yan'er can be so free and easy."

Free and easy?

Gu Yanjing was silent for a moment: "There must be some sadness, after all, he is the only man I have ever liked in my entire youthful years, but feelings are very fragile and can't stand hurt, the more I like him, The more I can't tolerate the sand in my eyes."

After a pause, "As early as when Bai Yiyi entered the door, I knew that Lu Chong and I would not be able to go back to the past. The forbearance and humiliation in the past month may be just a final farewell, and even if we have to leave, we will not go back to the past. There must be a logical reason. It just so happens that Bai Yiyi took the initiative to create a reason for me."

Nan Si was silent for a moment, noncommittal to her last words, only said: "What are your plans for the future?"

Gu Yan quietly leaned against the carriage, pondering for a moment: "Brother hasn't married a wife yet, so I don't worry about anyone's dislike. First stay at home with parents, let's talk about it later."

"Sister Yan'er used to be a rare and talented woman in the imperial capital." Nan Si raised her eyebrows, "If it wasn't for falling in love with Lu Chong, she chose to marry and have children early, she could have become an official and a female official."

The status of women in Tangling has been greatly improved for two successive queens. In recent years, there have been women as officials in the court. However, due to the constraints of the previous system and deep-rooted concepts, there are still not many female officials who need to show their faces frequently. Most of them choose In order to stay in the Yamen or do some auxiliary duties in the six ministries of the three provinces.

There are two talented women in Wenyuan Pavilion, who are responsible for compiling Donglan's history books.

"I'm just a little girl with no ambitions. How can I have any aspirations to be an official?" Gu Yan smiled lightly, reaching out to caress her belly, "The only wish for the rest of my life is to raise this child up safely, and I have nothing else to ask for. .”

After a pause, Gu Yan raised her eyes to look at Nan Si: "The young man that Liu'er likes looks very expensive, I wonder whose son it is?"

Nan Si raised her lips, "Guess."

Gu Yan shook her head: "You have traveled all over the world these years, where would I, a frog in a well, guess?"

"Sister Yan'er is too self-deprecating." Nan Si said with a smile, "But it's true, Yan'er has never been out of the imperial capital when she grows up so big, how about this, when the child in Sister Yan'er's belly is born, I will take you out for a mountain tour play with water."

"With a child, where do you go for sightseeing?" Gu Yan shook her head, "I'm suitable for staying at home peacefully and not going anywhere."

Nan Si silently looked at Gu Yan's stomach: "Is the child two months old?"

Gu Yan nodded.

Nan Si silently calculated, "There are still more than seven months before the baby is born."

Gu Yan smiled lightly: "Yes."

"Yan'er." Nan Si smiled slightly, "Although you and Lu Chong have reconciled, but after the baby in your womb is born, I'm afraid you will encounter trouble. The Lu family will not let their own flesh and blood wander outside. Even if Uncle Gu is the prime minister, but his words are formidable, how will you choose then?"

Hearing this, Gu Yan couldn't help but also fell silent.

She also thought of the problem that Nan Si said, besides, the Lu family and the Gu family are not far apart, they are both under the foot of the emperor, and his father is a colleague of Master Lu, and I am afraid that there will be constant troubles when the child is born.

With Mrs. Lu's temperament, she will definitely try to get the child back.

　good night.
