Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 3: Pick up your life and carry on
The door was pushed open with a "squeak", a cool breeze was brought in, and there were muffled thunder outside the house.
It's September, and although it's sultry during the day, it's starting to get cooler at night, and it looks like it's going to rain heavily.
Jiang Xue took off her clothes and shivered when the wind blew her.
Gu Lintan walked into the room and was a little confused when he saw that she was only wearing Zhai clothes.
When he got closer and looked at her, he saw that her forehead was wet with sweat and she looked very hot.
But now he saw that she was having a cold war again, so he went to get his robe and put it on her.
"Princess, do you think the room is stuffy? It's almost early autumn. Don't suddenly wear thin clothes if you're sweating."
As he said that, he reached out to touch her forehead.
Jiang Xue instinctively avoided, but was afraid of exposing her panic, so she quickly answered: "I shouldn't let my consort see me in such a mess. I was too hot just now and was sweating a little. Now I feel a little dizzy due to the cold wind. Let me take a shower first." Come on, take a dip in the hot soup to take away some of the cold air and help you freshen up."
Gu Lintan nodded and said loudly toward the door, "Pass the soup and wait for the bath."
Across the screen, Jiang Xue was immersed in the hot water. The water was dense. She sat with her eyes closed, trying to suppress her unsettled emotions.
Gu Lintan's voice came from the other side of the screen, "I heard that a famous doctor from Jiaodong came to Beijing for inspection at the beginning of the month. I saw that the princess was feeling unwell tonight. I asked Huang Fu to ask him to come and check your pulse tomorrow morning."
Jiang Xue raised a sneer. Diagnosis and treatment for me? I'm afraid it's because of the three-year-old "Chuan'er" who has a high fever!
She then thought, maybe you find a reason to invite him here, so that I can find out where you have hidden the mother and son!
"Thank you, Prince Consort, for taking the trouble. By the way, have the arrangements been made for the distinguished guests whom Prince Consort went to meet just now?"
Gu Lintan's eyes darkened slightly and he said: "It turns out that I am an old acquaintance of our family in Hedong. He has also passed the exam and will soon come to Beijing to take up his post. I am here to congratulate you and I on our wedding, and to inform you about my mother's current situation. I A place to stay has been arranged for him, so the princess doesn’t need to worry.”
The sarcasm in Jiang Xue's eyes became even more obvious, and she even compiled the reasons in such detail. If it weren't for the dream, she would probably believe it. At the moment, he can only pretend not to know and deal with it.
"Okay, if you need my help in the future, please feel free to ask. My consort, I am really not feeling well tonight. Please rest first. After you take a bath, I can rest on my own."
Gu Lintan had some doubts. On their wedding night, she didn't treat him with due courtesy?
Although the bride was inevitably shy, she let herself sleep first, as if she didn't want to have sex.
"Didn't my consort say that he hired a famous doctor for me? It's already late at night now. I'll wait until the famous doctor sees me tomorrow. I'm in good health. Please follow all the etiquette."
Using the excuse of physical discomfort, Gu Lintan couldn't refuse, so he could only nod in agreement.
After Jiang Xue took a bath, she did not sleep in the same bed with him, but slept undressed on the small couch on the other side of the room.
The night was very long, and both of them had their own evil intentions, so they had no sleep all night.
Jiang Xue was lying on the couch, her eyes wide open, and she was sorting out the things in her dream.
Her marriage to Gu Lintan was actually granted by the emperor's decree. She did not recognize Gu Lintan before.
I only heard in the palace that Jinke's number one scholar was of outstanding literary talent. Not only was he outstanding in talent, but he also had a good face. He was so handsome that he could be called a handsome man.
After the palace examination, the emperor was very satisfied with this talent and his views, and expressed his appreciation.
Since the emperor liked her - so she used some means to let people know that she had admiration in her heart, so that the emperor and the empress knew about it, and then she gave the decree to consummate the marriage.
She was a person who had given up her life once, and she knew what the emperor's decree meant. For her own good, her father, the emperor, and her mother did not want her to suffer because of her love. They chose the best son-in-law for their daughter. They also hoped that this person could make her happy and love her until they grow old.
Before she got married, she had some expectations. After all, what she heard every day was the envy of others. How could she not be yearning for it?
She also thought that since she was an imperial princess, she would definitely marry the best person. No matter what the past was like, her father, the emperor, and her mother would definitely choose the best son-in-law.
She is also willing to abide by etiquette like an ordinary woman, and in the future, she will raise eyebrows with him, and her hair will be wet and her hair will turn white.
When it comes to relationships, she doesn't really have to rely on anyone.
In the past, she had sincerely expressed her love, and thought that she would be able to get a happy ending like deep love.
The result is harm to others and yourself.
A line of tears quietly flowed from the corner of Jiang Xue's eyes, and she quickly raised her hand to wipe them away.
Now that the past has become a thing of the past, we should not look back again and again.
As a princess, it is not difficult to have a good marriage.
She only knew that what she got would be the best in the world, worthy of her royal appearance and her status as a princess.
But tonight, this bloody foreboding dream, this shameful truth, was knocking at her self-esteem all the time, shattering her expectations and pride.
However, the anger had passed, and now that she had some idea of how ruthless Gu Lintan was, she had to find a way to deal with him.
She couldn't die in vain like this, nor could she be humiliated like this.
The humiliation this person brought to her and the royal family today will be repaid a hundred times in the future.
Now that she knew that this man was hypocritical and had ulterior motives, she would never think that she was really his bride.
We need to find a way to slow him down, find out the whereabouts of the mother and son, and find out why he is willing to marry her even if he is willing to deceive the king - is it just as simple as contemporary Chen Shimei? Just for glory and wealth?
If it was really for glory and wealth, he would not have killed her but would have concealed the matter in the dream.
Jiang Xue thought to herself that with Gu Lintan's talent and scheming, it was probably more than that.
Jiang Xue was tossing and turning, and Gu Lintan on the other side was also full of thoughts.
He thought over and over the recent events in detail, trying to find out how he might have made Jiang Xue aware of the abnormality.
Are they Suxi mother and son?
When he went to Beijing, he did not take them with him. He found another opportunity to find someone to pick them up from Jiangdong, and arranged a place far away from Gu's residence.
Except for my mother and Huang Fu, there would be no other people who had seen them before.
And several of the people who had been ordered to deliver items there earlier were also slaves who had been shackled to death by him.
One of them accidentally mentioned their mother and son in the palace, and he ordered him to be beaten to death. The others did not dare to say a word.
Su Xi suddenly came to the house tonight, and he had a good reason. It was unlikely that the princess would know about it.
After thinking about it, I realized that I was overly worried and made a fuss about the cramped and nervous wedding at my youngest daughter's house.
He had made many arrangements and plans over the years to prevent Su Xi's identity from being exposed, and lied that he was alone and never married. Even if he betrayed their mother and son, he had to do this.
As for the princess, Jiang Xue, he smiled mockingly, as long as she was in the house, as long as she was his wife in name—
Then what he wants to do will go much smoother.
