Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 521 Mother and Daughter Arguing (2)
Ling Xihan's eyes shook, and Zhao Xinyue continued to say quietly: "Do you know why he only likes to wear black clothes? Because only black can conceal his inner darkness and inferiority." She looked at Ling Xihan, "You know that what attracts him most about you is what?"

Ling Xihan's eyes moved, and she seemed to understand a little bit.

"Because you are covered by the brilliance, the darkness in your heart is exactly the same as his. From knowing you, to understanding you, to falling in love with you. Everything is so sudden, but it is so natural. But the only fly in the ointment is that you The person in my heart is not him."

Her eyes were flat, but her voice was somewhat hoarse and desolate.

"He sympathizes with the darkness in you, and is also obsessed with your brilliance. Such feelings are like drinking wine into sorrow, and eating marrow to taste."

"Having said so much, what exactly do you want to express?" Ling Xihan was a little impatient, and said coldly, leaving aside the ripples in her heart caused by Zhao Xinyue's words.

Zhao Xinyue ignored her and continued talking to herself.

"He's never drunk, but today, he's completely drunk."

"What are you doing to me?" Ling Xihan said coldly, flicking his sleeves.

Zhao Xinyue looked up at her, "You are so cold-blooded." Then she lowered her eyes and murmured, "Same as him. Maybe this is what you have in common."

This time, Ling Xihan didn't refute her again.

After a long time, Zhao Xinyue took a deep breath and said, "He is extremely talented and beautiful, and the world can't match him. But he didn't know that he would be vulnerable, hurt, and heartbroken." Her eyes flashed The color of pain, the voice trembled slightly.

"You have seen it, right? It's just that you chose to turn a blind eye. No, it's because your heart has long been occupied by another man, and you can no longer see him." When she said this, her eyes were already blurred with tears.

"Just like him, his whole heart is on you, so he is indifferent to other people. Hehehe... how similar are you?"

She lowered her eyes and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"When I found him, he was already submerged in heavy snow. You know..." She trembled all over suddenly, and her eyes were full of fear and panic.

"He held his five senses and solidified his true energy. If I hadn't found him, he would have frozen to death in the snow."

Ling Xihan could no longer hide the shock and complexity in her eyes, and her fingers bent unconsciously.

Tears gathered again in Zhao Xinyue's eyes, "Do you know that he miss? He feels that he has nothing left to love." She couldn't hold back her tears any longer, her voice hoarse and painful.

"Perhaps, as early as many years ago, his heart had died, leaving only a shell. It was you, who brought him back to life, but made him despair again." She sobbed, only feeling that her heart hurt so badly that she couldn't breathe.

"Actually, he didn't want to get you. During that time, he just hoped that you could stay by his side and accompany him well. In fact, he is not as sophisticated and scheming as you think. He just... wants to stay The only warmth and light in my life for the next 19 years. But you want to break even such a small wish. Do you know how much pain he has?"

She approached Ling Xihan step by step, accusing with tears in her eyes.

"Actually, he has already given up a long time ago. He doesn't want to fight for the world. He doesn't want to fight for fame and wealth. All he wants is peace. And in this peace, you can be by his side for the rest of his life. " She sniffed and wiped the tears from her face.

"That war could have been avoided in the first place. You only know that he is cold-blooded and ruthless, but you don't know that he is not a cruel and heartless person. In that battle, Wuyou City suffered heavy casualties. Although you saved them with the blood phoenix, The blood all over the ground shows that his sins are serious. You would not know that all the city owners of Wuyou City who have been baptized and recognized by the blood phoenix have a benevolent heart. The defeat of Wuyou City was not because of Xiao Tingxuan How meticulous the calculation is is not because of your meddling. It is because the city lord identified by Xuefeng has committed a bloody crime. He made the entire Wuyou City Mincheng pay a painful price for his selfish desires. Therefore, He must atone for the mistakes he made."

"Atonement?" Ling Xihan murmured, his eyes a little confused.

"Yes, redemption." Zhao Xinyue stepped forward again, "You know Nether Holy Cave. It is the place where the Ouyang clan of Wuyou City committed unforgivable sins and was imprisoned. Luo Yushuang was tortured so badly back then. , you saw it. But what the young master has to bear is a hundred times more painful than her. Not only does he have to endure the double pain of flames and ice every day, but he also has to fall into the ecstasy and illusion to face the most painful scene in his life. Every day 81 times a day, and he has to endure this pain for three full years."

Ling Xihan was shocked, and suddenly remembered that in the years before she married Xiao Tingxuan, Ouyang Chen seemed to have disappeared and never appeared.And when she saw him again, she found that his face was abnormally pale and weak.

Now that I think about it, those three years must have been the three years he endured heart-wrenching pain.

It took a long time before Zhao Xinyue was freed from the extreme pain.

"Actually, he can completely avoid this kind of pain. As long as he is willing to hand over you, the chief culprit who made you, the city of worry-free, but was destroyed because of you, he won't have to bear any criminal law. But he didn't, He didn't want you to be hurt in any way. Therefore, he chose to silently bear the pain and despair that didn't belong to him for you alone."

Her steps were flimsy, yet she stepped on the ground step by step like a thousand pieces of gold.She looked at Ling Xihan, every word with tears in her eyes.

"He has done so much for you, shouldn't you save him?"

Ling Xihan suddenly raised his eyes coldly, "Then what do you want me to do? Should the betrayed husband and children comfort his broken heart, or give away my feelings for the guilt and touch that shouldn't belong to me?" She walked down step by step, her gaze as deep as a pool.

"Zhao Xinyue, I tolerate your selfishness, but it doesn't mean that I will pay for your selfishness."

Zhao Xiyue looked at her blankly as if struck by lightning.

Ling Xihan walked to the window, opened the window, and let the cold wind blow in.Bingxue slowly entered her ears with her voice.

"Haven't you ever thought about why you can't get his heart because you know him so well?"

Zhao Xinyue swayed, and subconsciously asked.

"why?"

Ling Xihan turned around, "It's because you know him too well."

"What?" Zhao Xinyue was puzzled.

Ling Xihan lowered his eyes and sighed, "As you said, since he has a dark heart and low self-esteem, how can he endure being surrounded by a woman who seems to completely dissect his heart every day? How can a man as proud as him allow that? A woman sees the deepest pain in her heart?"

Zhao Xinyue froze on the spot, recalling in her mind the desolation and emptiness in Ouyang Chen's eyes every time he asked her if she would marry him.

She bit her lip, maybe, because she knew him too well, there was no room for development between them, right?

It was already evening when Ling Xihan returned to reality from the depths of her memory.Xiao Tingxuan had already ordered someone to prepare dinner, seeing that she was still looking a bit sleepy, he walked over and put his arms around her waist.

"Don't think so much, eat first, you haven't eaten much today."

Ling Xihan sat down, looking at the table full of delicacies from mountains and seas, he couldn't eat.

"I'm not hungry."

Xiao Tingxuan paused for holding the food for her, put down his silver bag, and looked at her.

"Still worried about Yue'er?"

Ling Xihan shook her head wearily, "I don't know." She bit her lip, "Anyway, don't promise to marry me, let me think about it first."

Xiao Tingxuan sighed, "Aren't you afraid that Yue'er will be unhappy?"

Ling Xihan glared at him, "I did it for her own good."

As soon as the words fell, a girl's angry voice was heard.

"For my own good, you are selfish."

"Princess, the emperor and the empress are having dinner, you..." Yi Qiu's anxious voice followed.

"Go away." Xiao Yiyue gave a soft drink, opened the curtain, and barged in.Bluntly asked: "Mother, what do you mean? Why did you lock me in the palace and not let me go out?"

Ling Xihan's face darkened slightly, and he scolded lightly.

"presumptuous."

Xiao Yiyue raised her head, that face similar to Ling Xihan looked at her unyieldingly, with a look of rebellion in her eyes.

"Why am I presumptuous? Is it wrong for me to want to be with the person I like? Why don't you agree? You are selfish, you just hate me, and you don't want to see me well." Xiao Yiyue was full of grievances, and complained to the end. Tears were also rolling in the eye sockets, but stubbornly refused to let them flow out.

After all, it was her own daughter, and Ling Xihan felt distressed when she saw it.As she walked over, her voice softened.

"Yue'er, stop making trouble, I'm doing it for your own good..."

Xiao Yiyue avoided her touch, and looked at her coldly and mockingly.

"For me?" She raised her head, her eyes were cold and fragile, lonely and desolate.

"If it were my younger sister today, would you still object?"

Ling Xihan was taken aback for a moment, but Xiao Yiyue took two steps back mockingly, tears rolling down her eyes.

"I knew it, I knew that you only have Sanmei in your heart, and you and the emperor only like her. Since Sanmei was born, you don't love me, and you don't care about me. For more than ten years, I It’s hard to like someone, he treats me sincerely, loves me, takes care of me, and cherishes me. No one has ever treated me so well, why do you object to us being together, why?” She said in the end with a loud hiss Shouting, tears fell like broken pearls.

Ling Xihan was shocked, and Xiao Tingxuan's eyes were also shocked, and he looked up at Xiao Yiyue.

"Yue'er, you..." Ling Xihan never expected that her daughter would have such deep resentment towards her.Maybe she prefers the younger daughter, but that doesn't mean she doesn't love the eldest daughter.How could Yue'er feel neglected in her heart?She never expected that her daughter's affection for Su He was so deep.

"What about me?" Xiao Yiyue shook off Ling Xihan's hand again, and looked at her proudly.

"I don't care whether you agree or disagree. Let me tell you, in this life, I will not marry Su He. If you disagree, I will elope with him. Anyway, I don't want to stay in this cold and heartless palace anymore. "After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran out without looking back.

"Yue'er..." Ling Xihan closed her eyes, her figure shaking slightly.

"Han'er." Xiao Tingxuan's figure flashed and stabilized her figure.

Ling Xihan leaned weakly in his arms, "Xuan, did I do something wrong? I have been neglecting Yue'er all these years because of Lele's poor health. I didn't know that she hated me so much in her heart?" She grabbed Touching Xiao Tingxuan's lapel, he couldn't help but shed tears in the end, which wet his chest and burned his heart.

He hugged Ling Xihan tightly and comforted her softly.

"Yue'er is still young, she is unintentional."

Ling Xihan closed her eyes silently.Lele was born prematurely. She was in poor health when she was young and often fell ill.So she was very concerned about Lele, but she didn't expect that Yue'er would feel left out because of this, which caused a shadow in her heart.

She smiled wryly, "Forget it, she's grown up, and I can't control her anymore. Since she wants to marry, let's do it."
