Chapter 367: Chapter 272
But that man will ascend to the throne sooner or later, how can his sister go to such lengths for an outsider.
In the future, facing a palace full of concubines...
Xie YanYu frowned slightly, but he still replied to his sister, saying: "Apart from being proud in state affairs, everything else about him is not so great."
Specifically, with Xie YanYu’s rivalry with Lu Ziyuan, it was not clear to him.
It’s just that, on the surface, you can see that this person isn’t doing well.
Under his sister’s gaze, Xie YanYu continued: "He just came of age, yet his temples are already gray, his form is thin and pale, doesn’t look like a young general on the battlefield."
...Looks older than Pei Changqing.
He ultimately did not say this, watching his sister’s eyes suddenly turning red.
The room was silent for a few breaths. Xie Wanqing lowered her head, staring blankly at the child in her arms, carrying with her a rare sense of sadness.
In her past life, after marrying into the Lu Family, she was always despondent, seldom smiling.
In this life, after recovering those memories, she never allowed herself to fall into such emotions again.
Towards Lu Ziyuan, at the beginning there was only disgust, annoyance, fatigue.
Later, those feelings gradually turned into being moved and...pity.
But she thinks, Lu Ziyuan, who is arrogant and bloodthirsty, wouldn’t need pity.
Only he won’t let go of others, there’s no one that won’t let go of him.
To make him let go of Pei Yuqing, she ran away.
Before running away, Xie Wanqing had thought about it.
She thought Lu Ziyuan would definitely be greatly impacted.
As he said, he would live like a walking corpse, no longer being carefree and unrestrained.
But it doesn’t matter, time is the best medicine for pain.
No one can truly not live without someone else.
How deeply she loved him then, but after dreaming of the tragedy of her previous life, she also knew how to cut off those feelings.
Once you touch upon life and death, all love and hate are fleeting clouds.
A year or two won’t suffice, but three years, five years, he will eventually forget her.
In the past life, he died on the battlefield, yet having learned those lessons, he would know how to avoid danger in this life...
He will be fine, everything will slowly return to normal.
She was already prepared, but hearing that Lu Ziyuan’s grief over her death led him to go gray early and become emaciated still made her feel uncomfortable.
"Are you going back to the Capital?" Xie YanYu asked, "After this incident, he should have learned his lesson, dispelling his intent to kill Changqing..."
"I’m not going back," he wanted to say more, but Xie Wanqing already shook her head: "My remarrying is a thorn that will forever remain in his heart, besides he will be the Emperor later, I...I don’t want to enter the palace."
She doesn’t want to be an Empress or a concubine.
Rather than being a caged bird clothed in finery, Xie Wanqing would rather stay in this remote small town, living as an independent and free person.
Moreover, it’s her death now that makes Lu Ziyuan forget the reality that she had married someone else because he is overwhelmed with grief.
Once she returns with the child, she has no doubt that he would be ecstatic, feeling reborn, thanking the heavens.
At first, they’d bury the hatchet, certainly be deeply affectionate, he will be with her day and night, without other concubines, this is beyond doubt.
But they are still so young, he is only twenty, life has just begun.
When the initial ecstasy of reunion dissipates, their lives return to normal.
Those once existing cracks will reappear.
The fact that she married another man, this truth Lu Ziyuan probably detests deeply, how could he truly forget.
