Chapter 26
Chen He left the palace and reported to Li Zheng that he had been exposed.
Li Zheng didn't say anything, just let Chen He leave. He never intended to target just one person. There were more than one defense map.
In August, the summer heat plunged the Yuanxia Kingdom into a crisis.
Li Zheng allied with the Zhou and Chu states, sparking another war of Pingfang, which resulted in the Yuanxia Kingdom's defeat. Li Zheng simply wanted to sacrifice a region to preserve the Yuanxia Kingdom and his own regime. Li Zheng usurped the throne and married a princess from the Zhou and Chu states.
None of the Wang family troops sent by Wang Ding to fight against Zhou and Chu were spared.
The flat sky is very blue, the mountains and rivers are undulating, and there is no trace of green.
Chen He learns that Li Zheng is collaborating with the Zhou and Chu states in the Pingfang War in order to gain power and eliminate potential threats, of which the Wang Clan Army is a major one.
Chen He held the divorce letter given to her by Wang Ding in her hand and rode her horse to Pingfang like a madman.
The midday sun was high in the sky, its radiant light gradually drying the blood on the ground. A large group of people lay sprawled across the ground. Chen He couldn't see their faces clearly, so he had to get closer to examine them one by one.
The sun gradually set, sinking into the bottom of the mountain. Amidst the dead, Chen He found a man with a bloody face.
"Didn't you want to teach me how to dance with a sword? I've learned it. Do you want to see it?" Chen He murmured softly, picked up a broken sword on the ground, grasped the dark red hilt, and demonstrated it based on his memory.
It was the part where Wang Ding taught her in the palace.
"Your hands should be like this..."
“I’m trying harder…”
"Madam, you have practiced well..."
"Ah He, when did you learn it? Will you practice it for me?"
Memories of Wang Ding flooded Chen He's mind. At that moment, she wanted to make a decision for herself. In the countless days and months to come, she wanted to repay Wang Ding for the tenderness and love he had shown her.
"Wang Ding, if there is a next life, I will definitely come to find you first."
Chen He finally committed suicide in Pingfang. The sword fell and he died.
-------
After Liang He finished his previous life, he summed it up in one sentence: Love cannot be obtained, and it is too late to fall in love.
"Xiao Hezi, how do you feel after reading this?" the system asked curiously.
It has no past life, and it always remembers everything from the time it was born.
Liang He felt like he was reading a story. After thinking about it, he replied, "Very interesting."
"In your previous life, you had a deep obsession with Wang Ding, your ex-husband. So, you came here and carried out this mission to make up for your previous obsession."
——
The wedding day.
Liang He sat on the chair and let others help her dress up.
The woman before the mirror pursed her red lips, her brows etched with affection. A silver ornament with white pearls curved into a semicircle, a phoenix bird perched upright with wings spread in the center. A red silk ribbon looped beneath the ornament and looped back through her hair, leaving two red wisps. Liang He, dressed in a red wedding gown, looked even more charming and ethereal, her figure aglow with a celestial beauty.
"Today's bride is so beautiful that I can't take my eyes off her!" Mrs. Zhou praised.
It is said that the second daughter of the Fu family is pretty, and her looks are not as good as the other two in the family. But when she puts on this red robe, she has a unique charm, and she will surely fascinate General Song.
"That's right. Our bride today is the most beautiful person! Tonight, General Song will see her and cherish her well."
Another woman joked, and when Liang He heard that suggestive sentence, she thought of that and her face turned red.
"Haha, the bride is shy..."
There was laughter in the house and firecrackers outside.
When the time came, Liang He got into the bridal sedan. Listening to the sound of gongs and drums, she felt a little uneasy.
Liang He, wearing a red veil, let Song Ji lead her into the house, worship the hall, and enter the room. Then, amid the crowd's cheers, Song Ji lifted the red veil with full expectation.
When the veil was lifted, there was even more clamor, and everyone praised the bride's beauty.
Song Ji looked at Liang He and blushed when he heard the crowd's laughter. He then drove those people out and said, "If you see me, get out."
Well, only he can see his wife.
"Oh! General Song really loves his bride!" Someone said, causing another burst of laughter.
Song Ji drove the group away, then sat down beside the bed, shook Liang He's hand, and whispered, "Madam, I'll be back soon."
When Liang He heard the word "Madam", she lowered her head and curled the corners of her mouth.
Today, for some reason, she felt nervous and expectant, and replied awkwardly. When she thought about what was going to happen, her face turned red.
Song Ji looked at Liang He's timid and nervous appearance, and felt as if someone had tickled his heart. He chuckled and said, "Your husband will come to accompany you later."
When Liang He saw Song Ji leave, she walked to the dressing mirror, looked at her happy face, and smiled again.
When Song Ji returned to the room, it was already dark.
Song Ji had been drinking, and his mind was a little groggy. When he arrived at the room and saw Liang He sitting by the bed, he immediately smiled and moved closer.
"Madam, you are so beautiful today."
Song Ji stared at Liang He blatantly, his eyes were fiery and full of tenderness, which made Liang He fall for him.
Liang He had already showered and changed her clothes while Song Ji was toasting her. She was wearing a red gauze dress, but it was rather thin. Even through her clothes, Liang He could feel the warmth of Song Ji's palm.
A warm breath surrounded the two of them, and the aroma of wine gradually approached Liang He.
"Can I kiss this?"
Song Ji pointed at Liang He's red lips and expressed the thoughts that had been buried in his mind for a long time.
Liang He opened her red lips, and her face became even hotter after hearing Song Ji's words.
Just kiss her, and ask her what she is doing...
At this moment, the two of them looked at each other with red faces. Song Ji's cheeks were flushed with drunkenness, while Liang He's blush was a subtle shyness.
"Yeah." Liang He responded in a low voice.
Seeing Liang He agreed, Song Ji grinned, approached cautiously, and gently touched Liang He's lips.
The atmosphere in the room gradually became hotter, and the ambiguous smell between the two people became stronger.
Tonight, the moonlight is hidden by thick clouds, covering up the delicate things.
…
——
After marriage, Liang He, nourished by love, looks particularly beautiful and charming.
Fu Jinwan and Lu Xiuyuan also got married and their wedding date was in May of the following year.
"Mrs. Song is living a good life." Fu Jinwan looked at Liang He's rosy face and thought that Song Ji was quite nice to her.
"You too." Liang He glanced at Fu Jinwan and handed the orange in his hand to her.
The two smiled at each other.
The two chatted about the past and had a heart-to-heart talk. When they talked about Song Ji and Lu Xiuyuan, Fu Jinwan talked about the first time she met Song Ji.
"Don't overthink it. I had absolutely no contact with General Song at that time. Besides, I didn't have a good impression of him."
Fu Jinwan thought back to when she met Song Ji. That was also the third time she had met Lu Xiuyuan. Having lived her life over again, meeting Lu Xiuyuan was both her luck and her unexpected event.
Liang He also knew that Fu Jinwan had no interest in Song Ji and did not misunderstand anything.
It was not too late, and when Fu Jinwan was about to leave, Liang He saw her out. She saw a man in a white robe standing by the carriage, seemingly waiting for Fu Jinwan. As soon as he saw Fu Jinwan emerge, a smile brightened in his eyes, and he reached out his hand to help her up.
When the man saw Liang He, he said calmly, "Mrs. Song."
Liang He could guess that this person was Lu Xiuyuan, and then nodded, "Prince Lu."
When Liang He saw the carriage going away, he suddenly felt overwhelmed with emotion, as if everything was settled.
As soon as Song Ji walked out of the door, he saw Liang He looking at the blurred carriage in the distance with a lonely look in her eyes. He sighed, then smiled gently and said that he would take her to the Lu family more often in the future.
Song Ji walked down and took Liang He's hand.
"Ma'am, go home."
