Chapter 308 Extra 1: Chu Lin
After the wedding ceremony, the bride will be escorted to the bridal chamber.
Prince Liang was still feeling moved. As he was feeling moved, he saw Cheng Nianying and Fu Yi disappear at the door together. The smile on his face suddenly disappeared.
The hall returned to silence, and most of the people left were from the Prince's Mansion and the Pei Mansion.
This is unfortunate... The former had a conflict with Prince Liang's Mansion in the past, and Prince Liang found it difficult to face the latter and felt guilty about it.
King Liang felt very uneasy.
Seeing this, Wu Xun stepped forward to save King Liang from the danger.
Pei Jia's voice rang out first: "Drink, drink!"
Fu Ruiming then said, "Please follow me to the table."
After Fu Yi left, his younger brother Fu Ruiming took charge of the situation.
Pei Jia was naturally outgoing and friendly, and in just a few steps he was arm in arm with Fu Ruiming. When he heard that this man was the commander of the Imperial Guard, he retracted his arm and behaved a little better.
Fu Ruiming is exactly the opposite of him.
He was born with a cold face and was slow to warm up.
But when I think about the fact that this person is my cousin’s brother, how can I neglect him?
Fu Ruiming hesitated for a moment, then grabbed Pei Jia's hand and put it back.
Pei Jia smacked his lips in surprise.
I thought that the nobles in the imperial capital were not as difficult to get along with as they said!
In a blink of an eye, most people had left, which made King Liang feel much more relaxed.
"Your Highness Prince Liang." Chu Lin suddenly called him.
King Liang's heart, which had just been relieved, was instantly lifted again.
"You're a good father."
When King Liang heard this, his eyes were sore again. Without thinking, he said, "You are also a good mother."
Chu Lin smiled and did not comment on this sentence.
King Liang couldn't help but become nervous, fearing that he had said something wrong.
The ever-victorious general who was invincible on the battlefield seemed uneasy at this moment: "I see you, I see you have raised the young master of the Pei Mansion very well, and Xiao He likes you very much..."
Chu Lin interrupted him and also broke his nervousness.
"We have seen everything you have done. Prince Liang was willing to give up the throne he had secured and single-handedly make up for what we both lost in Xiao He. Prince Liang is a gentleman."
When King Liang heard this, he was flattered.
"In the future, when King Liang has another wife and children, no one will be able to tolerate Xiao He."
When King Liang heard this, he felt even more that Fu Yi's decision was indeed a brilliant one.
"This fact was proposed long ago by Prince Danshuo. I am just a practitioner."
He paused and continued, "I... may not have the energy to get married and have children anymore."
"Why?"
King Liang then raised his head and looked boldly at Chu Lin.
Chu Lin and Chu Zhen have completely different temperaments.
Chu Zhen lives in Yujing. She has the aura of a noble lady that she has been immersed in for many years, and she has a kind of exquisite arrogance.
Chu Lin lives in Heqing, and she exudes the gentleness of a girl from a water town.
The figure of the woman who had long haunted Liang Wang's nightmares gradually overlapped with the clear face before his eyes.
Prince Liang hesitated and spoke, "Although it may be abrupt, I still want to know how Mr. Pei treats Madam Chu now."
Chu Lin said without thinking: "Of course."
“…”
Chu Lin vaguely understood something. She said, "People always mistake guilt for concern. Over the years, it becomes an obsession. But they forget that it is a shackle they have imposed on themselves."
King Liang opened his mouth, but in the end said nothing.
"It's impossible to say that I don't harbor any resentment towards King Liang. But we all know that someone else set up this situation, and King Liang is also the victim."
"Your Highness, please throw away your shackles and move forward."
King Liang was shocked.
No matter how much others say, it is useless. No matter how good he is to Xiaohe, it still cannot relieve the deepest pain in his heart.
Only Chu Lin is qualified to forgive him.
Chu Lin suddenly asked: "Do I look gentle?"
King Liang nodded in surprise.
"But it wasn't like that when I was with Pei Yuanwei."
Pei Yuanwei, when King Liang heard this name, he quickly realized that it was Chu Lin's husband.
"During the years when I was most miserable, I would suddenly smash anything I came across. Pei Yuanwei had never been a good talker since he was young. He didn't know how to comfort me, so he could only pick up the things I broke bit by bit and clean them up, saying that they would not hurt me."
"He knew I was afraid of people at the time, so he dismissed his attendants and took care of my daily life and clothing himself. So he was the one who cleaned up those messes."
"To ease the pain in my heart, he, who was just a respectful friend to me, suddenly began to tell me about a dark time in his youth. He broke his reserved attitude and showed me his wounds."
"If it weren't for the incident at Prince Ding's mansion, my marriage to him would have been nothing more than a proper marriage arranged by our parents and a matchmaker."
"He is a gentleman, raised in the Pei family with the Four Books and Five Classics, and I am a lady, raised in the Chu family with Ban Zhao's Instructions for Women. We two should behave with moderation. He shouldn't cry freely, and I shouldn't smile with my teeth showing. Even hugs shouldn't be too deep."
"In a few decades, I'll probably end up like my parents, having several children but never understanding each other's hearts until they grow old, let alone saying I can trust my partner with my back."
"This was probably a blessing in disguise. I lost my composure in front of him, so I didn't have to be a lady anymore. To comfort me, he opened his own wounds to show me. We licked each other's wounds, and only then did we become close in spirit."
"I look gentle now, not because of Ban Zhao's teachings on women, nor is it my natural nature, but because it has absorbed my resentment."
Chu Lin looked at King Liang deeply.
King Liang felt as if she could see through his thoughts completely.
"All in all, he's a wonderful person."
Prince Liang felt a deep blockage in his throat.
She told him that she and Mr. Pei Si were indeed deeply in love, just as Xiao He had said; she also told him that what he was obsessed with was just the alienated emotion of guilt; at the same time, she did not forget to say that her temperament was not as good as she appeared.
So many reasons.
He should let go of everything and move on.
Prince Liang nodded stiffly, "Yes, that's very good. He is a rare good husband to be Xiao He's father."
The self that Chu Lin described was indeed very different from what King Liang had imagined.
But after the initial strangeness and awkwardness subsided, King Liang felt that she was a very smart woman...
On the contrary, it makes people miss it more than the vague silhouette entangled in nightmares.
Liang Wangqiang suppressed these messy thoughts.
Chu Lin said, "We don't know enough about this Danshuo County Prince. If Your Highness has time, could you tell us about him?"
This brought King Liang out of his previous mood.
King Liang nodded instinctively: "Okay, okay..."
Today he finally experienced the true meaning of using softness to overcome hardness.
Chu Lin nodded slightly and took the lead: "I won't wait for Your Highness. I will go forward first."
Prince Liang's heart moved, but he could only give her a relieved smile: "Well, I will also move forward later."
Let it go, let it all go.
