Mingxin Lakeside.
Yi Huan sat alone on the stone bench, her eyes slightly moist.
This year in the Lin Mansion was not the life she had imagined, and it was far from the harmonious marriage she had envisioned.
Before she got married, Yi Huan was just an ordinary girl. She didn't ask her husband to pamper her alone, and she never took concubines like her father. I just hope that like most couples, they can respect each other as guests and live in harmony for the rest of their lives.
But after marrying Lin Qingpei, everything she imagined was shattered. In just one year, Lin Qingpei started to consider Gu Xiaoniang as his equal wife. How would she live in the future?
The more Yi Huan thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became.
It is said that a woman's life will be ruined if she marries the wrong person. Now Yi Huan feels that most of her life has been ruined and most likely hopeless.
Yi Huan was lying on the table with his pillow on his arm, his eyes were red and there was a wet mark at the corner of his eyes.
Jin Yuan couldn't bear to disturb her and deliberately walked slowly.
But Yi Huan was still shocked. She raised her head suddenly, turned around, and timidly called out: "Who?"
Jin Yuan stretched out his hand to brush aside the willow branches and walked in front of her.
Yi Huan's eyes widened slightly, as if he didn't understand, how could this person appear here?
Jin Yuan handed over a handkerchief and said, "Madam, her face is full of tears."
Yi Huan touched his little face and felt embarrassed, then took the handkerchief and wiped it with embarrassment.
I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but the man's slightly cold fingertips traced across the back of her hand.
"Your Majesty." Yi Huan knelt down and saluted him.
The man grabbed her wrist forcefully, stopped her movements, and said, "No need."
The sudden touch made Yi Huan break away like a frightened little rabbit and took two steps back.
The warm and delicate touch still remained on his fingertips. The man rubbed his fingertips, as if aftertaste, and asked, "Are you afraid of me?"
Yi Huan said: "How come your Majesty is here?"
Jin Yuan did not answer, but asked: "Why is Madam sitting here crying?"
Yi Huan lowered his eyes and did not dare to answer.
If you tell His Majesty the dirty things about the Lin family, they will taint Your Majesty's ears.
Jin Yuan didn't mind. He sat generously on the stone bench, his eyes softened a little, and asked: "Madam, are you unhappy in the Lin Mansion?"
Yi Huan hesitated and said, "No."
Jin Yuan shook his head in a funny way, but the little woman refused to tell him the truth.
He said: "Your father was once my right-hand man. Now that he has passed away to protect my country, I must take more care of his descendants."
Yi Huan said: "Marrying Lin Qingpei is originally the father's order, the parents' order, and the matchmaker's words. I have no dissatisfaction."
Before Yi Huan left the palace, she had always been a good girl. Jin Yuan's tone was helpless, his low voice was slow and patient, and he said: "Your father's original intention is to have a good life for you. If not, why not leave that man?"
"When I leave the Lin family, my wife will be stabbed in the back. How will outsiders view my wife? How will they treat my family? If I am abandoned by Lin Qingpei, even if I am right, I will be wrong, and I will have no hope in this life."
"Who said that?" the man said softly, "Why did he divorce you? It's almost enough for you to divorce him."
This is really shocking. How can a woman divorce a man?
Since ancient times, it has been difficult for a woman to get married and divorce.
Jin Yuan shook his head and said, "You just live too well."
Yi Huan said quietly: "I am a daughter of a noble family, so I should follow the rules. If you don't understand the rules, you will be gossiped about..."
"What are you afraid of?"
Jin Yuan suddenly wanted to take her to do something extraordinary.
The man stood up and the tall figure pressed down.
Jin Yuan grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
Jin Yuan originally wanted to figure it out slowly and take his time.
In the end, he couldn't help it anymore. Boiling a frog in warm water was not suitable for him.
Jin Yuan has been domineering since he was a child. When he was fighting for the throne in the past, his ambition was completely unconcealed, and now his naked possessiveness towards Yi Huan is also very obvious.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Yi Huan turned pale in shock.
The faint scent of ambergris from the man's body hit his face.
Jin Yuan held her waist, lowered his head, and whispered in his ear, "Be reconciled to him, I will make the decision for you."
The emperor's breath brushed against her ears, but Yi Huan only felt scared.
Why should Jin Yuan make the decision for her? What's his purpose?
At this moment, dreams and reality seemed to overlap. Yi Huan couldn't tell whether the scene in front of him was a dream or reality. If it was reality, how could the aloof emperor hold her in his arms and say such things to her!
absurd!
"Huan'er." Jin Yuan pinched her chin.
Yi Huan dared to hit him in the dream, but not in reality. This would cause his head to fall off.
"Your Majesty, please let go of me quickly." Yi Huan struggled eagerly, "I...I already have a husband. Your Majesty, it's not appropriate to be like this now..."
Yi Huan was ashamed and angry, and couldn't speak a word.
"Huan'er, be braver. Women don't just have to guard the three-quarter acre of land in the back house. The former female general Jiang Shuyun once fought on the battlefield, and she is no worse than men. As the daughter of General Yi, you are no worse than anyone else."
Yi Huan was startled by these words.
This was the first time someone said such words to her.
This was completely different from the education she had received in which her husband was her first priority.
"Female general... I, a woman like me, can't lift my hands or resist my shoulders, how, how can I be like a female general... I, I'm just an ordinary housewife!"
"Your Majesty, you'd better let go! If someone sees you, it will damage your reputation! Talking about you, saying that you covet my wife! This is not a good reputation."
"Huh? I do covet your wife, and you're right." The corners of Jin Yuan's lips raised slightly.
Yi Huan: "..."
Seeing her getting angry from shame, and forced by his power, she dared not speak out in anger.
Jin Yuan gently rubbed the corner of her lips with his thumb, thinking that one day he would have a taste of this place, so he hugged her today. If he went too far, he might scare the little woman.
Jin Yuan was about to let go.
Just heard a burst of footsteps.
"Huan'er? Huan'er? Are you there? Why haven't you returned after so long? Did something happen?"
It's Lin Qingpei's voice!
Lin Qingpei is here!
Yi Huan struggled even more fiercely.
"Shh." The man lowered his voice, stroked her hair, and said, "Don't move, Hao Huan'er, you don't want to be discovered by him, right?"
Yi Huan froze.
If she were seen by Lin Qingpei in this posture, she would be plunged into a pig cage.
She raised her eyes and looked at the man pleadingly, her eyes filled with water.
Jin Yuan touched his tender little face, clasped the person into his arms, and immediately lifted his feet and flew up the tree, all at once.
She leaned closer to him, almost all of Yi Huan's body was pressed against him, and she could hear his sonorous and powerful heartbeat.
The heat from the man's body spread through his skin.
Down below, Lin Qingpei has arrived at the shore of Mingxin Lake, right where they were standing.
The shadows of the trees were dancing, and Yi Huan was so scared that he couldn't help but clenched Jin Yuan's clothes tightly.
Jin Yuan hooked her chin, turning her face to look at her.
The next moment, the man lowered his head, relying on her not daring to make a sound or move, and gently pressed his thin lips towards her.
Yi Huan was so shocked that he couldn't help but raise his hand to cover the man's lips. He covered it with both hands with great force. His eyes were wet with pleading.
The man's eyes darkened slightly.
The palm of his hand felt itchy, and Yi Huan's body trembled slightly, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably. Your Majesty, Your Majesty actually licked it...
Under the tree is the cold moonlight, and on the tree are ambiguous overlapping figures.
"It's strange. The palace maid clearly said that Huan'er came here. Huan'er, are you there?"
