after i found out my new wife was a man

The next day, Xie Shuhan left the capital, Xie Linghe went to see him off, watching the horses and horses gradually go away, the traces left by the horseshoes and wheels on the snow were blown by the wind, and could no longer be seen.

He Yaoqing did not come with him today, Xie Ling and Xiu Mu just bid farewell to their uncle and returned to the residence.

He Yaoqing's birthday was approaching, and there was a sense of hanging lanterns and festoons in the mansion. Xie Ling and returned to Ling'an Garden all the way. He Yaoqing was looking at the secret letter in his hand, frowning slightly.

Xie Linghe closed the door and asked, "What's wrong?"

He Yaoqing handed him the secret letter: "It's really hard to find out the power behind the prince."

Most of the manpower he had managed to insert had been lost by now, but he hadn't even found out who was behind the scenes, let alone how it was arranged.

After reading the letter, Xie Linghe looked at his worried and thoughtful face, and comforted him: "But fortunately, there are already plans, and it won't be long."

"That's right," He Yaoqing saw the thin snow falling on his shoulders, so he walked over to pat it off for him, "Your uncle has already left?"

"I went back to Yanyang, but it's a pity that I couldn't stay together for the New Year. Uncle asked me to send you a message, saying that a mere gift is not respect, and asked me to make amends for you on his behalf."

He Yaoqing secretly investigated Xie Shuhan, of course he couldn't say it directly, so he just smiled: "It doesn't matter if your birthday is too late or not."

"There are still." Xie Lingyu was thinking about something secretly, with a smile on his face, "I will give you something on your birthday."

He Yaoqing raised his eyebrows slightly: "What is it?"

"You can't just say this now, I will give it to you on your birthday," Xie Lingyu paused, then said with a smile, "I hope you will like it then."

He Yaoqing calculated the time silently, and there were only seven days left before his birthday, but from now on, he already felt impatient.

But this time, no matter how intimidating or lure he was, Xie Lingyu didn't reveal anything, so for the first time in his life, He Yaoqing counted the days purely for an expectation.

------------

Day by day, it finally came to the day of my birthday.

Because of her status as a princess at this level, the whole day was very busy. Emperor Jingren bestowed a lot of things, and when night fell, Xie's residence held a dinner party. From morning to night, He Yaoqing and the two even got together alone. time is not found.

As a result, it was visible to the naked eye that the air pressure around He Yaoqing was getting lower and lower, and the depths of his eyes were getting darker and darker, with only a smile on his face, Xie Linghe looked at him, feeling helpless. funny.

Until late at night, all the guests left one after another, and bid farewell to Hou Xie and Mrs. Xie, and the two finally returned to Ling'an Garden.

Before Xie Lingyu could speak, He Yaoqing closed the bedroom door with a little hesitation in his voice: "Finally, today is almost over."

Xie Lingyu knew that he didn't like those social gatherings, so he took the Yuebai Crane cloak that He Yaoqing had just untied, and said with a smile, "It's only once a year."

"Just this one day is enough for me," He Yaoqing looked at Xie Lingyu, and said, "You have whetted my appetite for so long, if you don't satisfy me, we'll just wait and see."

Looking at his appearance, it seemed that if Xie Lingyu didn't satisfy him, he would do something. Xie Lingyu only thought that he was talking harshly, so he smiled connivingly: "Then listen If you are not satisfied, I can only let you deal with it."

Xie Linghe was wearing a dark purple gown today, unlike his usual simple attire. Standing there elegantly and handsomely, when he turned his head and smiled at He Yaoqing like this, it suddenly made him feel a little itchy in his heart, and couldn't help it She silently said in her heart: "Then you should not satisfy me."

But at this moment, Xie Lingyu's heart was actually a little nervous. He let out a deep breath, his voice was solemn, but also full of tenderness.

He stood there like that, and looked at the person in front of him so seriously, and the words he said seemed to have been practiced thousands of times in his heart alone.

"...Today is your 19th birthday. I calculated it a few days ago, and suddenly realized that two hundred and 67 days have passed since the first meeting downstairs in the spring breeze. At that time, I never thought that after So many things will happen. You know, I've never been good at words, and I don't know how to say everything, so I never told you. Ever since I glanced under the peach blossom tree that day, I can't move my eyes anymore .”

He looked at the person in front of him, and He Yaoqing was also looking at himself. Apart from the dancing candles on the table, there was also a little Xie Lingyu in his eyes.

"Then I found out that you are a man. It's ridiculous that I tried my best to escape, making excuses for my various behaviors, and only telling myself that it was because I was your brother that I wanted to treat you well."

"Actually, that's not the case." Xie Linghe paused, analyzing himself mercilessly, as if he wanted to dedicate himself to the person in front of him from the inside to the outside, as well as his thoughts and souls. "Blame me for being too slow. Feelings are so shocking and unreasonable. I desperately found all kinds of excuses, as if only in this way can I continue to face you with peace of mind. In this way, it seems that I have really deceived myself. But I Forget, even if emotional matters are suppressed in words, they will be revealed from various places uncontrollably."

He Yaoqing looked at him, the hand hanging by his side was trembling.

Xie Lingyu's eyebrows and eyes were a little guilty and distressed, and he blamed himself: "I showed it first and showed it to you, but I just dared not admit it like a turtle, which made you feel uncomfortable. It's all my fault for that long."

He never mentioned how He Yaoqing deceived him so miserably, he only took all the mistakes on himself.

"The thing I regret the most is that I never told you personally. Since a long time ago, whenever I saw you, the joy in my heart would overflow uncontrollably. I like you."

In fact, for more than a month, the two of them got along like ordinary lovers, but Xie Lingyu always felt that such ambiguity was too irresponsible. Speaking of it today can be regarded as confirming one of his obsessions .

"I only hate that I never knew you before, and that I couldn't be by your side when you were sad," Xie Lingyu said, with a long-hidden promise, "but from now on, no matter how long, I want to walk all the roads with you, and I want to bear all the things with you."

He Yaoqing didn't know when his eyes were already red. He looked at Xie Lingyu closely without pausing. The emotion in it was like a ferocious undercurrent, just sticking to it could crush people to pieces.

But even if his body was broken, Xie Lingyu was willing to do so. He covered He Yaoqing's trembling hand, and his voice was a little teasing: "I know your difficulties, and my Xie family is also walking on thin ice. Let's get together. There will be no more suitable person, I know the road ahead is dark, but even if the night is hard to see, I want to light a lamp for you, but I still have to ask Your Highness, would you give me this chance?"

When He Yaoqing's mood fluctuated too much, his chest would feel heavy and painful, making it difficult for him to breathe. For the first time in his life, this feeling made him happy.

He was unexpectedly speechless all of a sudden, and could only hold Xie Lingyu's hand tightly. The moment the two palms met, He Yaoqing almost felt that his dilapidated soul was filled.

Since you have said this, after that, I will never let go even if I spend my whole life.

After a long time, He Yaoqing finally found his own voice, his voice was hoarse: "Is this the gift you prepared for me?"

Unexpectedly, Xie Ling replied with a smile: "Of course not."

He said he led He Yaoqing to the table closest to the bed, it was only a short distance away, Xie Ling didn't show it on the face, but he was so nervous that he almost couldn't walk, it was already a matter of time When the time came, he still couldn't help being afraid that He Yaoqing wouldn't like it.
