The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

Xue Mingyue was stunned after hearing this.

She understood every word he said, but why couldn't she understand these words? Xie Lang's words directly overturned all her past perceptions.

The reason why she thought she was being imprisoned in another hospital must be because Xie Lang was tired of her...

But in fact, this was his last resort to avoid disaster in order to protect her?

Xue Mingyue's head was buzzing, and those years when she could only stay in the courtyard and look at the high walls came to mind again. She moved her pale lips, trying to sneer, but in the end she even moved her lips. There is no strength in the horns.

It took a long time before he finally came back to his senses.

He raised his head, looked at Xie Lang who looked apologetically in front of him, and fell silent.

She no longer wanted to believe it, but there was a voice in her heart urging her to believe it was true. She had already sensed a hint of the truth before, but later she shelved the idea due to circumstances.

In her previous life, she didn't understand the tense and complicated situation in the court, and the gossip that reached her ears was abbreviated gossip.

But when she was reborn, she had been involved in the situation since she started attacking the Yan family. No one knew the truth better than her. Many of the rumors that spread to the people came from her. Some of them were true and some were false. She knows best.

The battle for inheritance has become more and more serious, and several forces are muddying the waters.

And Xie Lang, the Marquis of Dingyuan, holds military power, and everyone wants to win over him.

The status of Xue Mingyue, the wife of the Marquis of Dingyuan, has naturally increased accordingly. These are considered external troubles for the time being, but Dingyuan's old people are dissatisfied with her wanting to support Bai Zhenzhen to rise to power. This is an internal trouble.

Dingyuan Hou Mansion cannot make mistakes, and neither can she.

The situation can be described as difficult to move forward.

If Xie Lang hadn't locked her up in the Marquis Mansion and was not allowed to go out, she would have had to face those people who eat people without spitting out their bones. Then would she really be eaten to the point where no bones are left?

--not necessarily.

But no one gave her this chance.

Xue Mingyue twitched the corner of her lips and said in a mocking tone: "After Mr. Hou made the decision, did he feel that he had done the right thing and the best?"

She felt as if her whole body had gone cold, and she looked at him deeply.

"When you said these words, did you feel secretly happy in your heart, thinking that I would be deeply moved by these words, understand your situation and choices, and thus let go of the past with you?"

Xie Lang looked at the figure reflected in those light-colored eyes and couldn't say 'no'.

He tightened his thin lips and tasted bitterness in his mouth.

After a while, he lowered his eyes and sighed: "Yes."

This was the reason why he didn't want to confess to her so early. No matter how many considerations he had before, saying it now would mean repaying a favor. This is not what he wants.

But he was despicable at heart, so even though he knew this, he still expected her to put aside her grudges and reconcile with him.

Xue Mingyue tilted her head and wiped away the tears that fell from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand.

"When you made the decision on my behalf, you already decided that I was not a person worthy of conspiring with you, so you chose to keep me in the dark and lock me in the yard, under your control."

She pointed out exactly what he was thinking.

Under the guise of doing her best, I never thought of asking her if she felt good about it. Do I still want her to shed tears of gratitude?

Xie Lang's temperament has always been the same in his past life and this life, and it has never changed.

Xie Lang's figure suddenly froze.

He clenched his fists, lowered his eyes to look at her, and said softly: "I just don't want you to get hurt."

She was the only person he had ever been happy to see in all his years.

Even if she does nothing and just stands next to her, he will feel happy. How can he not be concerned about this and not care about her? No matter how hard it was for him outside, just thinking that she was still at home kept him going.

"But most of the hurt I've suffered in my life comes from you."

Xue Mingyue looked into his eyes steadily.

Xie Lang swayed slightly and said with a wry smile: "Yes, it's my fault."

He had lamented how good her honesty was on more than one occasion. Because of this honesty, he and her had rarely had conflicts since his rebirth. Most of them were spoken out openly and resolved together.

But her honesty this time made him suffer to this point.

Xue Mingyue lowered her eyes and took two steps back. The corners of her lips tightened into a straight line, and her tone was indescribably cold: "It's getting late, it's time for the Marquis to leave."

Xie Lang subconsciously raised his hand hanging by his side.

After realizing that this was not just an eviction order, she took it back. If he didn't want to leave, she was afraid she would have to move out of the compound.

His heart was filled with depression, and when he saw her like this, he could only say: "You should have a good rest."

Xue Mingyue retorted without any politeness: "Master Hou is gone, so I can naturally rest well."

"..."

Hearing that she still had the strength to scold him, Xie Lang left the house with peace of mind.

The person who looked weak in the room just now turned cold as soon as she walked outside. She told the servants waiting outside not to go in and disturb her, and then walked straight towards the execution hall.

If he is unhappy, he will make others even more unhappy.

at the same time.

After Xie Lang left, Xue Mingyue in the room lowered her eyes and stood there blankly for a long time. After she realized that her feet hurt a little from standing, she suddenly remembered that there was a chair next to her.

She sat down, poured a cup of tea and took a few sips.

Her expression was still dazed, and the words Xie Lang just said echoed in her ears over and over again, as if he wanted to remind her that the things she had experienced before were just appearances.

Suddenly, Xue Mingyue pursed her lips and shook her head.

The originally confused eyes gradually became clear and firm again, and the tense shoulders slowly relaxed.

...No, that was real to her.

No matter how many secrets there are, what she experienced is real: being imprisoned in the palace is real, the lack of food and clothing is real, being sick without anyone seeking medical treatment is real, and being exiled three thousand miles is also real.

It was enough for her to know this.

Xue Mingyue stretched out her left hand, gently pressed on the pulse of her right wrist, and closed her eyes.

Feeling her heartbeat gradually calming down, she finally calmed down from her emotions of joy and anger, and was able to think back in a calm manner. How did she come to talk to Xie Lang about this?

And, after the showdown with Xie Lang, how to proceed with the follow-up plan.

Yes, she still has to leave.

·

From that day on, Xue Mingyue refused to see Xie Lang again.

Even if the two of them are in the same courtyard, Xie Lang can't even see her face as long as she doesn't want to.

This also made Xie Lang, who was desperately trying to explain things clearly to her, helpless. He could only use the accumulated depression in his heart to torment others, and the one who suffered the most was the second prince.

Emperor Jingping ordered him to be demoted to a commoner, but did not specify how he would be dealt with.

Xie Lang went to look for him every once in a while. Everyone knew that he was venting his personal anger. Xiao Duo always screamed that Xie Lang was beating him to death, but the imperial doctor could not detect any injuries on his body. Even Emperor Jingping could only give up.

Until Northern Xinjiang urgently reports to Beijing——

The barbarians from the prairie invaded the border.
