86.086

The Duke of Chu State.

A butterfly with yellow wings flew over gently. Lu Mingyu sat on the bench on the east side of the pavilion, chatting with Queen Wan’s niece Wan Shu about a new opera troupe in the capital recently, but his eyes were attracted by the butterfly. With so many colors of butterflies, Lu Mingyu has always had a special liking for goose yellow. She felt that the color was like the fresh and bright forsythia by the river, which made people shocked.

Wan Shu followed her gaze and saw the butterfly. The little girl held her breath and suddenly reached out to grab it.

Failed to catch it, the butterfly flew away in panic.

Wan Shu turned around, Lu Mingyu looked at her, and the next moment, both of them laughed.

"Sister A Nuan, you look so beautiful." After laughing enough, Wan Shu tilted her head and looked at Lu Mingyu, praising her with some envy.

Lu Mingyu was stunned for a moment, looking at Wan Shu's clear apricot eyes, but a scene from her previous life flashed in her mind. It was also at a flower banquet that she and her second sister slowly wandered along the garden path and ran into Wan Shu and her companions. Wan Shu was already fascinated by Chu Sui at that time, so she naturally disliked her and sarcastically mocked her.

"We are all good-looking." Lu Mingyu said with a smile.

Wan Shu laughed and was a little thirsty, so she asked Lu Mingyu to sit down first, and she went to the stone table to have tea.

Lu Mingyu turned his head and continued to look at the scenery outside the pavilion.

"Sister A Nuan."

Chu Ying's voice sounded in his ears, and Lu Mingyu turned back with a smile. Chu Ying's birthday today was dressed very beautifully, like a bud in bud. Lu Mingyu had already given a gift before. He glanced at the other little girls. Lu Mingyu patted the seat beside him and signaled Chu Ying to sit down.

She wanted to ask what gifts Chu Ying had received, but Chu Ying looked at her with some anxiety, "Sister A Nuan, did you lose a purse?"

Lu Mingyu asked in confusion: "Why do you say so?"

Chu Ying's little face gradually turned pale, and there was a hint of grievance in her big watery eyes. She looked at Lu Mingyu for a moment. She lowered her head, "It's nothing." When she spoke, she stuffed something into the left sleeve bag with her right hand. Lu Mingyu noticed that it was a purse. Chu Ying was moving too fast, and Lu Mingyu only saw that it seemed that there was a three-yuan embroidered on the purse.

The smile on the corner of Lu Mingyu's mouth froze, and his mind turned sharply, then he thought of something and said, "By the way, Ganlu's purse is gone, it seems to be a three-yuan person who won the whole country. Did Yingying see it?"

Hearing her say this, Chu Ying's face turned cloudy and sunny. She nodded with a blushing face, handed the purse in her hand to Lu Mingyu, and said in a soft voice: "It was picked up by the second brother. He said that he seemed to see Sister A Nuan wearing it and asked me to help you return it to you. It turned out that the second brother had read it wrong."

Last time, the second brother coaxed her to deceive A Nuan sister, but it angered A Nuan sister. Chu Ying blamed herself and was unhappy. She ignored her second brother for several days. The second brother kept pestering her and swore that she would never lie to her again. Chu Ying forgave her second brother. Just now, the second brother asked her to help her return the purse, and she was serious. Chu Ying was half-believing and half-doubted, and decided to test whether A Nuan sister had thrown her purse first. Unexpectedly, she almost wronged her second brother this time.

"Then sister A Nuan returns the purse to Ganlu, Xiangxiang calls me, I'll go over." After solving one's worries, Chu Ying left happily.

Lu Mingyu pinched the new strange purse in her hand, and felt something was wrong. She turned her direction and secretly unbuttoned the purse. Sure enough, she found a white silk handkerchief rolled up against the purse. While there was no one nearby, Lu Mingyu pulled out the handkerchief and spread it to the level. The lines on it were small and elegant, which was written by Chu Sui:

"I wish to tell you the truth about Yueyang, and there is another half of the false words, the heaven and earth cannot tolerate it.

If your heart remains unchanged afterwards, you will no longer be disturbed. Listen to Zhuxuan, see you all the time."

In just a few short sentences, it is concise and to the point.

After watching, Lu Mingyu immediately put the silk pals back into his purse and put them in his sleeves. Nearby were the laughter of the little girls. Lu Mingyu leaned against the red lacquer pavilion pillar and his eyes unconsciously turned to the direction of Tingzhuxuan. She was so familiar with the Duke of Chu's Mansion. She had been to Tingzhuxuan with Chu Sui and went to Tingzhuxuan to cool off in his previous life. The breeze was simmering and the sound of the bamboo was quiet. The couple walked hand in hand in the bamboo forest. When they were tired, they went to Tingzhuxuan to rest.

I hope to tell you the truth about Yueyang... Is there any other reason for his relationship with Dong Yue'er?

A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Lu Mingyu's mouth. Dong Yue'er's son looked so much like Chu Sui, and she didn't feel wronged that she had wronged Chu Sui. If she hadn't liked someone, why would a big man have to hold a woman's hand intimately and wander around Dongting?

If it were just to listen to Chu Sui's talk about him and Dong Yue'er, Lu Mingyu would never go to the appointment, but Chu Sui was finally willing to tell her the truth. Was she telling her bluntly that she would know that she would mind him and Dong Yue'er, and let Chu Sui know that even if he treats him honestly, she would not like him anymore, and it would be even more impossible for Chu Sui to give up.

Cousin Xiao Huan let go, Chu Sui is easier to reason than cousin. Perhaps, she and Chu Sui don’t have to worry about it in this life.

Looking at the sleeves, Lu Mingyu's eyes became firm. She and Chu Sui had to have a good talk sooner or later, otherwise Chu Sui would have tried every means to see her. As for whether it was dangerous to go to the appointment, Lu Mingyu was very relieved. Chu Sui might be fooling people, but Chu Sui was definitely not a playboy who bullies men and women. Before the two got married in their previous life, Chu Sui was very restrained against her.

~

There is a lush bamboo forest on the north side of the Duke's Mansion Garden, covering a wide area. People walk a few more steps inside and you will be invisible outside.

Tingzhuxuan is located in the middle of the bamboo forest, with a two-story building. After Chu Sui and Chu Ying separated, they came here immediately. After checking up and downstairs, they confirmed that there was no one. Chu Sui ordered Agui to find a hidden place to hide outside the bamboo forest. Lu Mingyu's master and servant could come over, but no one else was allowed to enter.

After getting ready, Chu Sui stood at the Yaju on the first floor, pushed open the carved hall window, and sat under the window, leaning against the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Chu Sui was not sure whether Lu Mingyu would come, but today it is rare for Lu Mingyu to come to visit his home. He always had to give it a try, otherwise he might not be sure when he saw him next time, and talking outside would be better off at ease in his own territory.

Lin Feng floated in with a fresh bamboo aura. Chu Sui's face was quiet, as if he had fallen asleep. Until he heard two gentle footsteps, Chu Sui's eyes moved, straightened up, turned his head to look out the window. Among the lush bamboos, Lu Mingyu walked over slowly in a white dress. His cheeks were fair and his eyebrows were picturesque, but the beauty's expression was faint and cold. Compared with her smile, she had another kind of spiritual charm of a fairy.

Chu Sui was drunk.

She was only thirteen, and Thirteen had such a fascinating beauty. How charming will she be in two years?

There is no man who doesn’t like beauty, but there are thousands of beauties. Before Lu Mingyu, Chu Sui had seen too many beauties, including Lu Mingyu’s mother. The only thing that made him fall in love with him was the one who was walking towards him. He stunned Lu Mingyu’s appearance, liked her pretty and sweet face, liked her sweet and pleasant voice, and liked her cunning and agile temper.

Chu Sui stood up and walked towards the door.

Lu Mingyu saw him and signaled that Ganlu was waiting in place. She walked towards Tingzhuxuan alone. She was almost in front of Tingzhuxuan before she said to Chu Sui coldly: "You are in the house, I am outside, let's talk through the window." Ganlu is her confidant maid, and she listens to her everything and will definitely keep it a secret for her. However, Lu Mingyu didn't want Ganlu to misunderstand any intimate actions between her and Chu Sui, so Lu Mingyu could not stay alone in the bamboo house with Chu Sui.

After saying that, Lu Mingyu didn't even look at Chu Sui and stopped in front of the window facing Ganlu.

The beauty's face was as cold as frost. Chu Sui wanted to please her, so she had to listen to her and walked around the window with a wry smile.

Lu Mingyu stood sideways at the bamboo window and glanced at him lightly, "The second young master keeps his word? After today, as long as I don't want to see you, you will no longer bother me."

"I'm just making you bored?" Chu Sui stood in the window, looking at the cold face of the little girl diagonally opposite, really confused.

Lu Mingyu turned to Zhulin and answered him with his actions.

Chu Sui sighed, knowing that Lu Mingyu could give him not much time, and he would definitely have to go back to the girls in a while. Chu Sui no longer took turns and looked at Lu Mingyu seriously, with a hint of nostalgia in Feng's eyes, "A Nuan, you can deny it, but if I was not wrong, you gave me that purse back then, did you like me, right?"

He missed Lu Mingyu's kindness to him at that time and the sweet "second brother" of the little girl. Although Lu Mingyu's face was unmoved, his heart was infected by his sad tone, and his thoughts returned to that day without controlling it. Do you like him? Surely yes, if she didn't like him, how could she secretly embroider his purse with one stitch and thread? How could she suddenly remember that he was going to study on a long distance, and her heart suddenly became empty, so how could she hear his voice from afar, and her lips were curled up?

"A Nuan, you were seven years old that year, and I was fourteen years old. In my eyes, you were just a child, my niece who had turned a few bends. I like you, the kind of love for children. I treat you as a child and never thought that you might like me." Chu Sui took a step forward, thinking of the two years he left the capital, his eyes became complicated, "A Nuan, if I had known that I would like you when I grew up, in Yueyang, I would never touch Dong Yue'er."

Touch Dong Yue'er...

Hearing Chu Sui admitting with his own ears, and hearing her husband in her previous life admitting that he had an outdoor room, Lu Mingyu's mind immediately saw Dong Yueer holding hands with Chu Sui, and Dong Yueer holding a beautiful boy appeared. She thought she didn't like Chu Sui, so she wouldn't mind anymore, but Lu Mingyu still felt wronged. She used to like him so much and trust him so much, and she wholeheartedly...

Tears came too quickly, and they slid down their faces, causing a slight itch, and Lu Mingyu realized that he was crying.

She turned around quickly, not wanting Chu Sui to see it.

But Chu Sui saw it and saw her crying for him. Tears came so quickly, which shows her concern for this matter. The speculation in her heart was confirmed. Looking back on the petite figure of Lu Mingyu fainting in her mother's arms that day, Chu Sui's mouth felt like he was hit by a heavy hammer, and she felt unstoppable self-blame and pity.

He still didn't understand why Lu Mingyu liked him so much, but she really liked him and was hurt by him.

"A Nuan, can I give me another chance?" Chu Sui grabbed the window ridge and looked at her thin back anxiously, for fear that she would speak up late, and she didn't know how regretful he was. "A Nuan, I was wrong. I blamed me for being young and not being firm at the time, and I blamed me for not understanding your intentions early, but I promise that from now on, I Chu Sui's only one in my heart, and I will never touch any woman again. A Nuan, I only ask you to give me another chance. If you look at me, I will do what I say."

Lu Mingyu turned her back to him and shed tears silently. She couldn't even tell why she was crying.

"A Nuan, stop crying? I really regret it." Chu Sui knew she was crying, and in desperation, she raised her foot and was about to climb out of the window.

"You stand!" Hearing his intention, Lu Mingyu whispered, still not turning around.

"A Nuan..." Chu Sui didn't dare to ignore it, staring at her slightly turned side face. He was anxious, "A Nuan, how can I forgive me if I do it? As long as you say, I will listen to you in everything."

Lu Mingyu took a deep breath and looked at the layers of bamboo shoots that were blown by the wind like waves. The place that belonged to Chu Sui in his heart was empty. She liked him and was injured by him. She spent three years to calm the injury. After returning to Beijing, she met a true gentleman, a man who stood up to the sky. She no longer cared about Chu Sui, and there was no question of whether to forgive him.

But Lu Mingyu did have a question that he wanted to answer, "Second Young Master, if I hadn't been to Yueyang, I wouldn't know about you and Dong Yue'er. Later, you liked me again, would you confess everything to me?"

Chu Sui was stunned.

Lu Mingyu slowly turned around, his eyes were a little red, but his eyes were clear and firm.

Into such eyes, Chu Sui could not go against his will. He looked away, remained silent for a moment, and whispered: "No, I'm afraid that you will dislike me, and you will avoid me because of a woman I regret touching and ignore me again."

Not only can he not, he will also try his best to hide the truth without revealing any clues, and not let the lowly woman affect him and Lu Mingyu at all. Chu Sui is not stupid. He knows that Lu Mingyu will not be satisfied with such an answer, but he has deceived her once in Yueyang, and this time Chu Sui doesn't want to hide it anymore.

The man's voice was low, Lu Mingyu chuckled softly, Chu Sui finally told the truth, he did this in his previous life, it sounded reasonable and understandable, but Chu Sui was only thinking about himself, where did he put her?

"Did you ever think that one day Dong Yueer will come to Beijing, find me, and even bring your flesh and blood, a beautiful child who looks like you. At that time, how do you treat them, mother and son, and how do you treat me?"

Speaking of the grievance and sadness, Lu Mingyu's voice became even more swallowed again, and he understood in his heart that his previous life was his previous life, and this life was his present life. It was meaningless to say that these things were, but she just couldn't hold them in! She didn't have the chance to ask Chu Sui clearly in her previous life, and she could only vent her. Chu Suifa, who was still trying to ask her for forgiveness.

Chu Sui raised his head in shock.

Tears floated in Lu Mingyu's eyes, and she couldn't see him clearly. The man opposite and her husband in his previous life overlapped in a daze. Lu Mingyu tried hard to hold back her tears and asked him again, "You only think about yourself, but you are not responsible when you touch Dong Yue'er. You said you like me but refuse to tell me honestly. There is no airtight wall in the world. Have you ever thought about how sad I will learn that my husband, who is deeply in love with me, will I actually have an outdoor room and a son?"

"A Nuan..."

Chu Sui panicked and watched her tears rolling down, as if what she said was true. He felt innocent and felt that she should not have written what had not happened on him, and felt inexplicably guilty, as if he had really hurt her so heavily.

"A Nuan..." Chu Sui was at a loss and could only call her, begging her to wake up from her imagination, begging her not to cry.

Lu Mingyu couldn't help but cry. He died so unfairly in his previous life. In this life, he found that he believed in the wrong person. All these grievances were related to Chu Sui, but no matter how many tears were, he would have to finish his tears. He had enough tears, and his vision became clear again. Looking at the man in the window, Lu Mingyu suddenly smiled.

She wiped her eyes and raised her head again. Her face was like a passing wind and rain, leaving only the calm and gentle wind. "Second Young Master, as you can see, I am a person who likes to think randomly. I liked you when I was a child, but after I learned that there was a girl Dong around you, I completely gave up on you. As for your youth, I don't hate you. After all, you have nothing to do with me. The second young master doesn't have to feel sorry for me. But I have a good memory and I can't forget Miss Dong. I can't let go and I can't be moved by you anymore. Therefore, I have to let go of my second young master's beauty. After today, there is no relationship between you and me. I hope that the second young master will do what he says and don't get entangled again in the future."

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.

"A Nuan!" Chu Sui was anxious, turned over and quickly stopped her, "A Nuan..."

Lu Mingyu took a step back, avoided his hand that was stretching over, and glared at him coldly, "Chu Sui, if you say nothing like this, then we can't even nod a friendship."

Her eyes were as cold as the cold lake, and Chu Sui subconsciously retracted his hand, but his eyes were filled with complex reluctance, "A Nuan, I can't change the past, but I really like you, you..." She was so good, she liked him so much, Chu Sui was already admiring him, but now she learned that Lu Mingyu had been infatuated with him, Chu Sui felt that as long as he worked harder, she would forgive him.

"But I don't like things that have been touched."

After all the truth was explained, he refused to let go. Lu Mingyu clenched his cuffs and for the first time in his two lives, he deliberately said harshly and hurt someone.

Something that has been touched?

Chu Sui's face turned pale and looked at her in disbelief. Anger surged in Feng's eyes. It is natural for men to have three wives and four concubines. Since ancient times, only men despise unclean women so much. How could men say that men are impure? He likes Lu Mingyu and never thought of taking a concubine again. He regrets and blames himself for being confused at the beginning, but he doesn't feel that he has become an unclean thing after touching Dong Yue'er!

The man's face changed red and white. Lu Mingyu knew that he was angry, but she didn't care. She took advantage of Chu Sui's anger and left quickly.

Chu Sui turned around with a calm face, Feng's eyes had her cold back and a blazing anger.

On the second floor of Tingzhuxuan, someone hid behind the window, watching the figure in the white dress walk farther and farther away. He closed his eyes and sighed silently.

It turned out that in her previous life, she lived so hard and suffered so much grievance.
