The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

Xue Mingyue: "??"

She sat up straight with a jerk, her face suddenly darkened, and she looked up at him: "Did he poison you?"

Xie Lang reached out his hand to steady her, then hummed and said, "When we left the capital, he was not involved in the Second Prince's rebellion. After seeing the Second Prince's failure, he turned to the Third Prince."

Xue Mingyue immediately sneered.

Why didn't he do this when he betrayed the prince twice before? Now he is loyal to the third prince.

If someone else had invited Xie Lang, he might not have been able to invite her, but Xue Xujun happened to be her nominal father, and Xie Lang's father-in-law. And using the excuse of giving away old things, Xie Lang would definitely take the bait.

As long as he can get rid of Xie Lang and release the third prince, he will be the greatest hero.

Moreover, Xie Lang had created excellent conditions for them this time... Emperor Jingping was under house arrest, and there was no one in the court who could take charge. As long as Xie Lang died, the third prince's ascension to the throne would be a foregone conclusion.

"That's a really good calculation."

Xue Mingyue gritted her teeth in hatred, and cursed Xue Xujun a few times before looking at Xie Lang anxiously: "Then you didn't fall into the trap at that time? Your health was already bad enough at that time."

Xie Lang met her concerned gaze, chuckled and shook his head.

Xue Mingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, her reason told her that Xie Lang certainly did not fall into the trap. If he had, it would not be the Xue family that would be executed in the end. But she still couldn't help but worry.

Thinking of the scene at that time, a trace of disgust flashed across Xie Lang's eyes.

Since he chose to lead his troops to capture the capital, it was certainly not an impulsive act. He had been planning for this for a long time before this, and was always keeping track of the movements of important officials in the capital.

In a sense, the Xue family is the place he pays the most attention to.

Therefore, everyone in the Xue family had been under his surveillance for a long time.

He had known about the poisoning in advance, and the reason he still chose to go to the appointment was just to collect all the old things left by Mingyue. But he didn't expect that Xue Xujun really had no feelings for her.

While talking about how things were when Mingyue was around, she gave him her concubine's daughter who looked somewhat similar to her.

He said something high-sounding that Mingyue was no longer with him, and he was now the regent and needed someone to serve him. This daughter looked and had the same personality as Mingyue, so he gave her to him so that he would miss her.

What a wonderful example of someone missing someone when seeing him!

Xie Lang sneered in his heart, and his disgust and impatience towards him reached a peak.

He didn't even have the patience to wait for Xue Xujun to get to the point and make him drink the cup of poisoned wine. He just had his entire family arrested and sent to the imperial prison to be treated well.

Thinking of this, the anger in Xie Lang's heart surged up again.

He closed his eyes to suppress the murderous intent, and when he opened his eyes again, he had calmed down.

There is no need to tell Mingyue about these dirty things.

"Your husband is so powerful that he can even establish himself as the regent. How could the small Xue family let him fall into such trouble?"

Xie Lang smiled nonchalantly.

To Xue Mingyue, it was as if he had suddenly changed from his gloomy look to his familiar, casual look. She blinked, feeling as if he was hiding something from her.

"Don't worry. Even if my body is already at the end of its strength, it will still be easy for me to deal with the Xue family."

Yes, yes, you were exhausted not long after cleaning up.

Xue Mingyue complained in her heart, but when she thought of those disgusting people in the Xue family, she felt a little uncomfortable and her little face suddenly wrinkled.

Xie Lang looked at her with an expression that seemed like she was chewing wax and couldn't help laughing.

After struggling for a long while, Xue Mingyue reached out and rubbed his face vigorously several times, and whispered: "Anyway, it's all a matter of the last life. This life is no longer the same as the past. Let's not talk about them anymore."

"it is good."

Xie Lang let her do it and responded with a smile.

Thinking that he put himself in danger for her old things, it always felt wrong to let her give him something she used.

After thinking for a while, Xue Mingyue said seriously: "I am here, the things are not important. If you want anything, you can come to me in person, and I can give you a new one."

She held his face in her hands and looked at him intently.

"The memories of the past are not important. What is important is always the present and the future. Jing Lan, do you understand?"

Xie Lang seemed stunned for a moment.

Xue Mingyue's words were not without purpose. Compared to her, the person who had a deep obsession with his past life was actually Xie Lang.

Everything he says and does is deeply influenced by the past.

It didn't seem obvious before, but after having several frank conversations with him in the past two days, Xue Mingyue discovered: whether it was last night or just now, he seemed to be obsessed with the past.

Xue Mingyue could understand. After all, he had to bear much more than she did, and he had lived many more years longer than her. The experiences he had later on almost broke him down and reshaped him into a different person.

But if you keep dwelling on the past, you won’t be able to move towards a new life.

Xue Mingyue looked at him worriedly.

Xie Lang quickly understood that she said these words to enlighten him, and his heart suddenly softened and swelled.

It was just like the green plums he had craved for as a child, sour and sweet.

This feeling filled his entire heart, making it impossible for him not to be moved.

The past was like a sky covered with haze to him, and his fall from a favored child of heaven to a sinner was in line with this sky full of haze - revenge was one of the reasons that kept him going.

But he will never forget the fire.

His lover, the only spiritual support that kept him going at the time, died in the fire.

Xie Lang had never felt so regretful and self-blaming... She had clearly behaved so abnormally before. If he had paid a little more attention to her, or asked one more question, what happened later would not have happened.

But he didn't.

And the words he said and the promises he made will never be fulfilled.

Xie Lang always dreamed about that day and the fire, and no matter what he did, he couldn't save the people. Over time, this incident almost became a knot in his heart that he couldn't express.

Now everyone in the capital, from top to bottom, inside and outside, says that when Xie Lang goes crazy, he is like a mad dog.

But no one knows that he is now tied with reins, and the other end of the rope is -

It's in her hands.

Xie Lang looked at her serious expression, raised his hand to hold her wrist, blinked and asked:

"Can you really have anything?"

Seeing that he finally came back to his senses from silence, Xue Mingyue's eyes lit up immediately, and she nodded affirmatively: "Of course, as long as I have it, I can give you anything."

"Well……"

"Then I want the amulets you got from the temple in your box."

Xue Mingyue: "?"
