Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 326 Unforgettable Love (2)
Emperor Xiande was startled when he heard the words, then frowned, thought for a while, and said: "Xuan!"

"Your Majesty, Xuanchang Wuhou, see you!" the little eunuch outside the hall shouted.

Outside the glazed door, Huo Yuan tidied up his clothes, then walked in calmly and respectfully, lifted his clothes, knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty Huo Yuan, long live my emperor, long live long live."

Emperor Xian De said kindly: "Huo Aiqing is alive."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After Huo Yuan thanked him, he stood up.

"Huo Aiqing came to see me at this time, but is there something important?" Emperor Xiande asked, "If I guessed correctly, Huo Aiqing should have received the imperial edict by now."

"Exactly." As Huo Yuan said, he suddenly took another step forward, knelt down on the ground, raised the imperial decree with both hands above his head, and said respectfully: "This time I entered the palace to face the Holy Spirit, because I dared to ask the Holy Spirit to take it back." .”

Emperor Xian De heard the words, narrowed his eyes and said: "Huo Aiqing, do you know what you are talking about?"

Huo Yuan said: "This minister understands. However, even if His Majesty commits a crime against him, this minister has no way to accept the will of the marriage."

"Oh? What does Huo Aiqing mean to disobey the imperial decree?" Emperor Xiande said lightly, "What will happen if you resist the decree and don't obey it? I believe Huo Aiqing must understand."

Huo Yuan was silent. He naturally knew that the end of rebellion and disobedience may be beheaded or exterminated.

However, if he just accepted the imperial decree, even he would look down on himself.

He was not reconciled.

That's why he threw away all his rationality and came here without hesitation.

"Your Majesty, I understand, it's just..." After a while, Huo Yuan moved his lips and said, but felt that his voice was extremely difficult.

Emperor Xian De didn't wait for him to continue, but said: "Since you know, you still want to resist the decree, what exactly do you want to do? Or do you have any dissatisfaction with me?"

"I don't dare!" Huo Yuan said immediately, after a pause, he took a deep breath and said: "I just don't remember my dead wife, and I don't want to remarry so soon, so I want to ask His Majesty to withdraw the marriage proposal."

Emperor Xian De sneered in his heart when he heard the words, he really dared to say it.

"Dead wife? I remember that Huo Aiqing seemed to have two deceased wives. I don't know which one Aiqing will forget?"

Huo Yuan was silent for a moment, but he cheered up and said, "I...don't forget Xiao Su."

Emperor Xiande couldn't help squinting his eyes when he heard the words, then stared at Huo Yuan with a half-smile and said: "Little Su?"

Huo Yuan nodded solemnly, and said, "Yes, I can't forget her, and I can't marry another woman."

What Huo Yuan said was not lying.

Even if Su Wan follows His Majesty, even if he knows that there is little hope, he actually still has some extravagant hopes in his heart, because he knows His Majesty's temperament, liking someone will not last long, and he will get tired of it sooner or later. Maybe he can make a military contribution and ask His Majesty for someone, but His Majesty may not return Su Wan to him.

However, after Su Wan was made Mrs. Chu, he knew that it was impossible for the two of them, but he still didn't want to believe it, or he couldn't be reconciled.

He couldn't figure out why she was no longer his own after only a few months.

He knew he was wrong, but she couldn't give him a chance to correct himself, and she had to be so decisive?
He recalled their previous events over and over again, looking for the reasons that led to this outcome over and over again, and then regretted, unwilling, sad, humiliated, and angry, so much so that he couldn't sleep at night many times.

If there is a chance to come, he will never let her be sent to Zhuangzi, and he will not let other men take advantage of it.

Yes, he had noticed—

When Su Wan was in Zhuangzi, she was already with Emperor Xiande.

Even if she didn't realize it at the beginning, when she thought about it later, she would realize something was wrong. Moreover, at that time, Su Wan's attitude towards him was both perfunctory and indifferent, and she even used various excuses to refuse his closeness. Unfortunately, at that time, he , I was so confident in myself that I didn't understand, and I forgot, the difference between Su Wan and other women.

No, maybe, he never really knew her.

Sometimes he wondered if she was deliberately playing tricks to cater to him during those sweet days.It is precisely because she has never liked herself that she changed her mind so quickly and fell into the arms of other men so quickly.

But even so, he still can't forget that beautiful day. Every time he thinks about it, it is actually torture for him, but he still thinks about it like masochistic, making himself even more unforgettable and making her a deep A thorn stuck deep in his heart, he couldn't pull it out, and it hurt so badly when he moved.

Sometimes, he even wished that Su Wan would really die, and he didn't want to see her smiling and lingering in other men's arms.

Unfortunately, no matter how much he regretted it, it was too late.

He was unwilling to marry another woman, because he hoped that one day, Su Wan would come back, and he would always keep her the position of wife.

But if he married someone else, Su Wan might never come back.

He will not even have the slightest hope.

Hearing that Huo Yuan was still thinking about Su Wan, Emperor Xiande was indeed very unhappy, besides that, he was also a little depressed.

Because even if he knew that the person the other party was talking about was actually Su Wan, he couldn't stop him unless he said something, but is it possible?
Even if he and Huo Yuan are well aware of this, they must not point it out, saying that they are deceiving themselves and others, but they really need this fig leaf.

It was precisely because of this that Huo Yuan dared to say that.

He knew that Emperor Xian De must be unhappy, but so what?
He stole his people, so why not allow him to take some revenge?
Emperor Xiande said: "Huo Aiqing's words are wrong. The dead are dead, and the living should be like this. I believe that Xiao Su must also want you to marry a new wife and start a new life. Why are you so obsessed and insist on guarding?" What about a relationship that's gone?"

Hearing this, Huo Yuan immediately raised his head to look at Emperor Xiande, his eyes were a little bit surprised, but more dejected and disappointed. Could it be that she meant him to marry a new wife?
Emperor Xiande seemed to know what Huo Yuan was thinking, with a smile on his lips, he nodded slightly, and said: "I believe that if little Su Shi is still alive, she must also hope that you can accept this will, not for the sake of She disobeyed the imperial decree, and even implicated the entire Hou Mansion. Moreover, even if you disobeyed the decree, she will not be able to return to your side."

Huo Yuan couldn't help being startled when he heard the words, and slowly put down the imperial decree in his hand, his whole body was enveloped in a heavy atmosphere, he was silent for a long time, as if he had finally accepted the reality, then he looked up at His Majesty again, and said: " I have a question that I would like to ask His Majesty, and I hope His Majesty can explain it to me."
