Looking at the direction where the old lady disappeared, Ruo Shuiyue stood there in a daze, unable to recover for a long time. At this time, her mind was full of the old lady's eyes when she left, with disgust, hatred, and a trace of unspeakable pain.
And helpless. She really didn't understand, this was the second time she met her, why did she have so many emotions towards her?
His long and slender hands gently stroked her soft blue hair. Xiahou Yexiu looked at her apologetically and distressedly. "Yue'er, I'm sorry, I have wronged you."
Ruoshuiyue smiled lightly and shook her head. Her cold fingers gently touched Xiahou Yesiu's red cheeks from being beaten, and asked distressedly, "Does it still hurt?"
Gently holding her hand on his face, Xiahou Yesiu also shook his head. "It doesn't hurt!"
"It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been killed by the old lady..."
Ruo Shuiyue was interrupted by Xiahou Yesiu before he finished speaking. "Silly girl, as long as I can be with you, I am willing to be beaten by my mother every day." After saying that, Xiahou Yesiu let go.
Her hands gently held her in her arms, greedily smelling the fragrance that belonged to her.
Holding his strong waist, Ruoshuiyue smiled lightly but said nothing, just leaned gently in his arms. But in her mind, she was thinking about whether she should ask Xiahou Yesiu about the identity of the old lady.
Wrapped up in this question, Ruo Shuiyue still didn't dare to ask until she went to bed. She was a little worried that if she asked, she would touch Xiahou Yexiu's pain. But if she didn't ask, she would...
Looking sideways at the thoughtful woman next to him, Xiahou Yesiu turned his eyes and suddenly raised his lips indifferently. "Do you have something to ask me?"
Glancing at Xiahou Yexiu, Ruoshuiyue bit her lip and nodded. "If I really ask, will you tell me?" When saying these words, Ruo Shuiyue was obviously a little cautious.
Hearing what she said, Xiahou Yesiu had already guessed what she would ask. After blinking, Xiahou Yesiu nodded. "You can ask!"
Looking at Xiahou Yexiu, Ruoshuiyue hesitated for a moment and finally spoke. "Um, that old lady, is she really your mother?" If true, it can only mean that she is the divorced woman back then.
concubine.
Without hastily answering Ruoshuiyue's question, Xiahou Yexiu asked indifferently, "Why do you ask that?"
"Um, didn't it mean that the Queen Mother had passed away five years ago? But she..." Looking at Xiahou Yexiu's dark and cool eyes, Ruoshuiyue's heart couldn't help but tighten.
"The Queen Mother is not my biological mother." Xiahou Yesiu believed that she already knew this.
With her big eyes open, Ruo Shuiyue didn't speak, but just stared at him, as if waiting for him to continue talking.
After a pause, Xiahou Yexiu narrowed his eyes and continued. "Back then, the Queen Mother and my mother, Concubine Li, gave birth almost at the same time, but her daughter died at birth. In order to compete for favor, she bribed the imperial doctor and midwife to give birth to her daughter.
I made an arrangement with her daughter who died in infancy. It was precisely because my mother was depressed that she passed away not long after!" When he mentioned his mother-in-law, Ruoshuiyue clearly saw a hint of pain in his eyes. But he just blinked.
The eyes disappear!
Ruoshuiyue knew what he said because what he and his aunt said back then was basically correct.
"Who told you these? How did you know?" He was still young at that time and had no idea about the past.
"My mother told me when I was ten years old." Until now, he seemed to still remember the scene when he saw her for the first time. It was the coldest night in his life, the sky was covered with snow, and he was dying.
, lying covered in blood on the cold snow, with no one paying attention, even his father, his biological father, left after leaving a cruel smile. Just when he thought he was about to die, she
Dressed in red, he descended from the sky like a god.
With her eyes tightened, Ruoshuiyue couldn't help but said, "Then what is the old lady's true identity???"
Looking at Ruoshuiyue with complex and profound eyes, Xiahou Yexiu hesitated for a moment and finally spoke. "Her name is Murong Yan, and she is the youngest daughter of the late Emperor of Dongmi Kingdom. Because she was not favored by her father, she was given the privilege of being in the harem.
Zheng, she was abandoned from the palace when she was very young. It was my mother-in-law who picked her up, took her home, and took care of her like a sister as she grew up. In other words, her real
She is my aunt."
Ruo Shuiyue raised her eyebrows. "Then why didn't you call her aunt, but mother?"
He lowered his eyes, and a helpless and sad look flashed across Xiahou Yesuo's handsome face. "Because, because she abandoned her own children for me. And she really loves me!"
Xiahou Yexiu's words shocked Ruoshuiyue. She really didn't expect that a woman as incomprehensible and difficult as Murong Yan would abandon her own children for someone else's son.
"Since she loves you so much, wouldn't your words tonight hurt her heart?"
Looking at the woman beside the pillow, Xiahou Yesiu's eyes suddenly showed a touch of pity, and he reached out to hug her into his arms. "Actually, the reason why I treat her like that is not just because I love you, but also because...
Hey! Forget it, it’s better for you to know less about her!” After a pause, Xiahou Yesiu finally decided to forget it!
Although she was very curious, after hearing what he said, Ruoshuiyue didn't ask any more questions. After all, it was really good that he could tell her the identity of the old lady. There are some things that, if you dig deeper, maybe the most painful thing is
He. Just like his past...
Thinking of this, Ruo Shuiyue's eyes were fixed, as if he suddenly thought of something.
Raising her head slightly and looking at Xiahou Yexiu's handsome face, Ruoshuiyue smiled sheepishly. "Um, how old are you, Yexiu, this year?"
"Uh-huh?" Xiahou Yesiu obviously didn't react for a moment when she suddenly asked him.
Twitching the corner of her mouth, Ruoshuiyue smiled awkwardly. "I told you not to be angry! In fact, until now, I don't even know how old you are this year!"
Hearing this, Xiahou Yesiu suddenly remembered something, and immediately narrowed his eyes, pretending to be dissatisfied and looking at her. "You really don't know?"
A pair of big eyes stared at him innocently, Ruo Shuiyue nodded. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I just..." It was just because she didn't love him at all before. Since she didn't love him, she still had the leisure to do it.
To understand how old he is. But now...
"Oh... I'm twenty-six after the New Year!" Although he had already guessed that she didn't know her age, when she actually asked him, he was still a little depressed.
Ruo Shuiyue smiled sweetly. "I remember! Okay! Good night then!" With that said, Ruo Shuiyue turned over and planned to sleep.
Seeing this, Xiahou Yesiu narrowed his eyes, half-stretched his body, leaned his handsome face towards Ruoshuiyue, and said dangerously, "Sleeping? You don't even know my age, don't you think you
Should he be punished to a certain extent?"
Looking at Xiahou Yexiu's look, Ruoshuiyue immediately knew what he wanted to do, so she stretched out her hand and pushed him away gently. "No, it will hurt the child."
"Pfft!" As soon as Ruoshuiyue finished speaking, Xiahou Yexiu couldn't help laughing. "Yue'er, I think you're overthinking it! The punishment I'm talking about doesn't mean that. I just want to
You just took the initiative to kiss me, but I didn't expect you... Haha... I never knew that Yue'er, you are still very perverted! Haha!"
"You, I...sleep!" He wanted to argue, but looking at Xiahou Yesiu's smiling face from ear to ear, Ruo Shuiyue pulled the quilt over in depression, turned over and lay down. Good guy! Give it to me.
Remember! There will always be a day when you take the initiative to ask me for help!
