At night.
Jingyang City is extremely lively.
There was a lot of traffic and lanterns were lit everywhere.
It’s rare to lift the curfew, it’s like a city that never sleeps.
A few hundred steps away from the palace, there were imperial guards guarding it.
Lin Xianhong just stood at the door.
Facing the cold wind, it blew for several hours.
She watched the wedding carriage enter the palace.
I also saw the ten miles of red makeup.
More and more guests came in.
Listen to the joy within.
Lin Xianhong felt indescribably sad.
Drops of tears kept falling.
There is regret and guilt...
There was no such standard when she got married.
At that time, Ning Que had not yet inherited the title of king and was only the crown prince.
But the palace welcomed her with the highest standards.
Many court officials also gave face to the Ning Wang Mansion.
Take the initiative to add makeup for her.
The betrothal gift alone is worth a lot of money.
Houses, land, and many private properties.
She didn't say a word during the wedding night.
Just crying like now.
Ning Que didn't touch her.
Just sit in the house and read books.
I sat there all night...
Scenes from the past emerged in my mind.
Lin Xianhong raised his hand to wipe away his tears.
Just as Ning Que said.
Even if she blamed everyone else for everything, it was still her fault. It was she who married Ning Que, not someone else. If she had even a shred of trust in Ning Que, how could things have turned out like this?
Lin Xianhong sighed.
She is now only wearing a thin long gown.
Walking on the street, I looked out of place.
Walk through the bustling crowd and across the stone bridge.
Watching the Jing River flowing, I feel indescribably lonely.
She lived for so many years.
But now I am alone.
Everything she cherished was made up of lies. And Ning Que, whom she once thought had deceived her, was the only one who had never deceived her...
"Xianhong."
"Is it you?"
Lin Xianhong stopped.
All I saw was Gu Yuan wearing a bamboo hat.
There were still hideous wounds on his face.
His hands hung low, and he smiled sinisterly.
"Did you see that?"
"Ning Que has already married."
"A hundred times better than you!"
"Now your sister has become a prostitute, and your father, Lin Jiang, has become a slave and is about to be sent to the north. I'm afraid there's no hope of him returning alive. All of this is caused by you."
"It's none of my business."
"Because you are not from the Lin family?"
"How do you know?"
Gu Yuan sneered and said contemptuously, "My Gu family is one of the eight great families in Chang'an after all. It's not surprising that they know this. The Lin family suddenly had an extra person. Just think about it and you will understand."
"Get out of the way."
Lin Xianhong ignored him.
Now she only has hatred towards Gu Yuan!
"I told you before, you're only fit to rot and stink in the mud with me. Do you still think Ning Que would marry you? Even as a concubine, you, a bastard who doesn't know your parents, are not worthy. Lin Xianhong, you've hurt Ning Que so much!"
Lin Xianhong looked at Gu Yuan.
He suddenly raised his hand and slapped it.
Bang!
A crisp and loud slap sounded.
Gu Yuan covered his face and became furious.
He wanted to raise his hand to control Lin Xianhong, but was easily pushed away.
"You... dare to hit me?"
"I'm going to hit you, and why do I have to choose a time?" Lin Xianhong's eyes were cold as he whispered, "Yes, you're right. I hurt Ning Que too deeply, and there's no way I can undo it in this lifetime. But that doesn't conflict with you deceiving me. Ning Que is a true gentleman, and you're just a despicable villain, a worm in the stinking ditch!"
"Hehehe...you just found out?" Gu Yuan didn't care at all. He said calmly, "But don't you want revenge? Does it make you feel better when you see Ning Que so happy?"
“It’s not good.”
"Because I brought this upon myself."
"I don't blame him, I only blame myself."
"He's living a good life, that's what he deserves..."
Lin Xianhong laughed at himself.
She has been reflecting a lot these days.
It hurts to think about what I have done over the years.
She felt so sad just thinking about it.
He's so good to her...
But she didn't give Ning Que any good look.
Always speaks coldly to Ning Que.
Keep hurting him.
Ning Que had no relatives at that time.
She was the only one left...
"Gu Yuan, I hate you as much as I feel guilty. So even if I die, I will never marry you." Lin Xianhong walked down the stone bridge and said slowly: "Perhaps, Ning Que will never forgive me in this life, and doesn't want to see me again. At first, I also thought that I was just feeling guilty towards Ning Que, but...but..."
Tears fell.
Lin Xianhong covered his chest.
She looked at the still bustling palace in the distance.
"But I really have fallen in love with him..."
"He's so outstanding and so good to me. He always puts my feelings first. He's the only one in my life who treats me sincerely and has never cheated on me. But I..."
"Shut up!"
"You can't love him!"
"You can only love me!!!"
Gu Yuan almost roared.
Lin Xianhong smiled for no reason.
"I've been very calm these days and have understood a lot. Gu Yuan, people like you love to compare. You've never liked me. You just wanted to use me to prove that you're better than Ning Que. But in fact, you're inferior to him in every aspect. You're just a pitiful creature. Now you're not even a man."
