Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

"I remembered," Lu Qiongshuang muttered again, "Isn't this the story told in the daily reading book?"

"The down-and-out young master met a kind-hearted woman and rescued him. The two made a lifelong pact. When the young master became famous, they would go back to marry him in a sedan chair. From then on, the two of them grew old together hand in hand."

"It's an old story," Lu Qiongshuang rolled her eyes, "but isn't this situation completely different from his? When he was in high school, he just threw away his family and married my cousin regardless of the relationship. He was a high-ranking official and the son-in-law of the emperor - no matter how you heard it, he married my cousin. It’s Chen Shimei!”

She chatted for a long time, and when she saw Jing Ye who was completely unmoved, she murmured angrily and continued to look back at the courtyard.

"I want to hear what he has to say."

In the hospital, Jiang Xue suppressed the mockery and tried her best to make her expression and voice full of grief, anger and sorrow.

"You actually have such a close relationship with her, and you even brought her to the capital today - I think the consort must treat her with more sincerity than I, the wife of a bright matchmaker, are marrying."

Gu Lintan shook his head repeatedly and said: "Your Highness, I already informed Your Highness of my thoughts when I drank the Hexin wine with Your Highness."

"I want to know you and live a long life without end."

Gu Lintan raised his head and looked at Jiang Xue sincerely and said:

"I was just grateful for Miss Suxi's kindness in saving me that day, and I didn't think about it at all! I only felt this way about His Highness."

"Don't you think about it?" Jiang Xue's voice was sharp and she winked at Chen Jin beside her. Chen Jin immediately strode to the carriage and took out the child from the carriage.

"Then this child!" Jiang Xue asked, "Tell me, where did this child come from?"

Hearing this, Su Xi, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled and almost fell to the side. Gu Lintan hurriedly reached out to support her body, and then looked at Jiang Xue with an extremely helpless expression and a look of regret in his tone.

"I really didn't know about the existence of this child before."

"A few days ago, Su Xi was traveling all the way with her children. After finally finding out about the minister, she came to the capital. After three or four years of separation, I didn't know about it until she came."

The contempt in Jiang Xue's eyes could hardly be suppressed. He made up such a lie, do you think she can believe it?

Although her intention tonight was to bring the mother and son back to the house, she could not break up with Gu Lintan. But if she believed her, Gu Lintan would become suspicious and think she was too easy to fool.

Jiang Xue smiled coldly and said: "Since you have a child, it means that you and her are married that day. Why don't you take her home and marry her with three letters and six gifts? Why is this child so old? You never went back to look for her?"

Gu Lintan gritted his teeth secretly, and then slowly said:

"Your Highness, when Miss Suxi rescued me, I had been suffering from high fever for days. In order to relieve my fever, Miss Suxi had no choice but to soak her body in water to relieve my fever."

"I was extremely ill and confused at the time. I lost my clarity of mind. I didn't know that I had ruined Miss Suxi's innocence."

"His grandma has legs!" Lu Qiongshuang heard this and said with indignation, "He can make up such nonsense, I can't even listen to it!"

In the courtyard, Gu Lintan looked at Su Xi, his hand hidden under the sleeves of his robe secretly holding her forearm tightly.

Su Xi's tears couldn't stop flowing down her face.

We have reached this point, what else can we do?

Having been dependent on each other for more than ten years, she believed in Tan Lang and believed that everything he said and did was to save her and Chuan'er's lives.

So, she slowly spoke with a voice that was choked to pieces.

"Your Highness Princess, Sir Gu really doesn't know anything about this matter."

"Seriously?" Jiang Xue hesitated for a long time before saying these two words.

Gu Lintan deserves to be damned. He will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, and he can even make up such insulting lies, and Su Xi——

Jiang Xue sighed in her heart, she was actually willing to do this for Gu Lintan.

Finally, I couldn't bear it.

Su Xi's face full of tears suddenly revealed a self-deprecating wry smile.

She knelt straight again and bowed solemnly to Jiang Xue.

"Seriously. It was the civilian woman who was eager to save people that day. Afterwards, I was afraid that Mr. Gu would misunderstand me, and I didn't want to repay the favor, so the civilian woman never told him what happened that day."

She sighed deeply and said: "Mr. Gu was already delirious from the fever that day. Even if he recalled some fragments afterwards, but I deliberately concealed them at the time, he would only think it was me... .It’s just a confused dream caused by illness.”

Lu Qiong's ears were very strong. Even if Su Xi's voice was very soft, she could still hear her clearly. She looked at Jing Ye aside in shock and asked, "Ah this? Is she willing to do this too?"

Jing Ye stretched out his hand to twist her head away and continued to watch the situation in the hospital as if watching a play.

Jiang Xue was a little stunned. What she couldn't believe was that Su Xi had given up her own reputation in order to fulfill Gu Lintan's wish.

She calmed down her mind, softened her tone a bit, and asked again: "Then this child..."

"Yes, Your Highness." Su Xi closed her eyes, her voice broken, "I, a commoner's wife, a commoner's wife, an unmarried woman with a child, it is really difficult to support her. So I searched for news all the way until I came to the capital."

"It's just that the common woman doesn't know that Lord Gu has already married His Highness. The common woman doesn't want to ruin his future, let alone trap the princess in an unfair situation. She originally wanted to leave..."

She opened her eyes and looked at Gu Lintan sadly.

Gu Lintan said sincerely: "Your Highness, the mistake made many years ago has been made. Even if I didn't know it at the time, I couldn't let my savior wander away with my child. This matter started because of me, and I have been reading it since I was a child. A book written by a sage cannot do anything unkind or unjust."

"I hope your highness will fulfill my wish!"

Jiang Xue felt that Gu Lintan was disgusting in her heart. The tears that could have been squeezed out had dried up now. If she couldn't mobilize her emotions anymore, it would be a flaw. She could only turn her back to the two of them and try her best to make her voice sound as painful as possible.

"What do you want me to do for you? Consort?"

"You can't be unkind, you can't repay your kindness, and you can't abandon your children and your benefactor. So - do you want me to invite you to come down and fulfill your marriage?"

"No!" Gu Lintan cried out in surprise, stood up and came to Jiang Xue to support her. He looked down at Jiang Xue with her eyebrows furrowed and a look of grief on her face, and said, "I just want to keep their mother and son aside. , give them a place to stay. My heart is only for Your Highness, and my wife is only for Your Highness!"

Jiang Xue weakly pushed him away and said: "I feel so confused, Prince Consort, I believe in your character and your love and justice, but I really don't know how to accept such a thing."

"Husband and wife are one. She saved your life, so she is also my benefactor. But if she has a child with you, her identity in the future, and the identity of the child..."

Jiang Xue took a deep breath and said, "Consort, let me think about it myself."

"But no matter what, we can't let them live outside without support. Let's take Miss Suxi and her children back to the house and live in the backyard." Jiang Xuedao, not allowing Lintan to refuse, asked again:

"I haven't asked the consort yet, why is there an assassin in this courtyard tonight?"
