My concubine is pregnant, I tear up the marriage certificate and marry another powerful official
Chapter 44 Others are the rules, but you are not
Thinking back to the time when they had played together, they had become schoolmates since childhood. Everyone in the capital knew that they were childhood sweethearts, and Qi Sheng was also dreaming of that childhood sweetheart relationship.
Unexpectedly, she married Lu Yanxiu in the blink of an eye and became a woman in the boudoir.
Qi Sheng regretted it too late.
Su He did not stop because of that call, and even left more resolutely.
Qi Sheng became anxious and wanted to chase after him.
Zhao Wanrong suddenly appeared and stopped him.
"Master Qi, why don't you sit down and have some tea?"
She had an intimate smile on her face as she spoke, appearing very kind.
Qi Sheng begged, "I came here today to tell Ah He..."
"No need to say high-sounding words. Young Master Qi, you have a happy family, so there is no need to interfere. Our Ah He has been spoiled since she was a child. She has been wronged for several years in the Lu Mansion for no reason. From now on, if you want to marry someone, you must go through a lot of discussions in the family. As for the idea of a co-wife or a concubine, let alone Ah He, I, your sister-in-law, don't agree either."
Zhao Wanrong said this with a hint of meaning. Although she was smiling the whole time, Qi Sheng felt empty inside and was speechless.
He came here today with some selfish thoughts.
If Qi Sheng had not bribed the nanny in his mother's courtyard, he would not have known that she had collected portraits and was determined to find a marriage for Su He.
Since other men in the capital can marry her, why can't he?
Qi Sheng knew that the concubine had wronged Su He, so he promoted her to be his equal wife!
But before he could even say anything, Zhao Wanrong had already seen through his thoughts. After being said out in the open, Qi Sheng felt that Su He was getting further and further away from him, and he was afraid that they would never meet again in the future.
"Young Master Qi, let's go back." Zhao Wanrong said.
Madam Duan said goodbye to Wang, walked a few steps to Qi Sheng, and glared at him unhappily: "Come back with me quickly!"
Qi Sheng didn't answer gloomily. Madam Duan grabbed his ear without caring that they were outside and said with gritted teeth: "Go back and accompany your daughter-in-law well, or I will confine you!"
"Tap, tap, tap..."
After Su He left the Su Mansion in a carriage, he drove forward all the way, not knowing how long he had been driving or where he had ended up.
She finally couldn't sit still anymore and asked the driver to stop. She lifted the curtain with her bare hands and looked out. The familiar scene in front of her made her pupils flicker slightly.
"Moat... Why are you here by the moat?"
Pei Xia blamed the driver in a low voice.
I just mentioned the incident of the young lady falling into the water at home, and now I’m here to bring you back to this sad place. Isn’t this going to make the young lady sad?
Su He said: "Nothing, I just want to come here to relax."
At this time, the dusk is blue and the lights are lit.
It’s the annual festival of lighting lanterns again.
The surface of the moat reflected beautiful light like flowing clouds. Girls walked by the shore in groups, their veils floating in the water, looking beautiful and charming.
Su He lifted her skirt and walked down the steps, then came to the fence on the shore and looked out at the water.
The blue sky and water are one.
Su He recalled that every Lantern Festival after they got married, Lu Yanxiu would use the excuse of being busy with official business to deal with something urgent. Every time this happened, Lu Yunqing would come forward with concern and play the role of a caring sister-in-law.
Now that I think about it, she was just keeping an eye on me.
Otherwise, how would Lu Yanxiu explain if Su He discovered Liu Qiuqiu's existence in advance?
There were couples walking hand in hand beside her, and their warm and friendly smiles hurt Su He a little. She looked at them with envy for a while, and walked along the shore for a long time until her legs and feet were numb, and then she leaned against the stone steps to rest for a while.
I couldn't help but recall Mrs. Duan's whispered words: "Wrong, wrong!"
There was some bitterness in Su He's eyes.
Isn't it wrong?
She originally thought that Lu Yanxiu was her savior, so she treasured his pursuit.
Now it seems really ridiculous.
"The lanterns tonight are too plain, not even one ten-thousandth of what they were back then."
Suddenly, a cold voice came from his ear and floated into Su He's ears.
Her heart subconsciously skipped a beat.
Looking back, I saw a face as clear and elegant as jade.
Lu Huaihe wears snow-white clothes, has black hair, and a jade belt around his waist.
Those dark eyes were staring at Su He motionlessly.
"Master Lu..."
Lu Huaihe bent down slightly, stretched out his hand in front of her, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a casual tone: "You can call my name."
Su He looked at the hand in front of him and hesitated for a moment, then covered it. His palm was wrapped by him and he pulled it slightly, and his body was lifted up lightly.
Her cheeks were as red as smoke, and she lowered her head, not daring to respond.
He was a dignified young man from a noble family, the calm and composed Chief Justice of the Dali Temple, and the only child of the eldest princess.
Even his father and mother had to address him as "Sir" when they saw him, so how could he be so presumptuous as to call him by his name?
Su He thought for a long time before saying, "Lord Lu is a descendant of the royal family. Su He is just an ordinary woman, I dare not address him by name, so I'd better address him according to the rules."
The words "ordinary woman" made Lu Huaihe look a little distressed.
He knew that after Su He and Lu Yanxiu divorced, a wave of mockery suddenly swept through the capital. People laughed at Su He for not having a child in three years, while her concubine had been pregnant twice in three years.
Even though he had warned and punished the person who spread the rumors immediately, those words still pierced his heart like thorns.
Lu Huaihe didn't even dare to think about how Su He felt when she found out that Lu Yanxiu had a pair of children in the other courtyard. She was so gentle, but she was forced to divorce.
Thinking of this, his eyes ached, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he raised his eyes slightly and said, "It's a rule for others, but not for you."
Su He was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red, she turned sideways, but her fingers were secretly entwined tightly.
Pei Xia, who was not far away, noticed that the young lady's expression was a little strange. When he was about to step forward to ask, someone grabbed his wrist. He turned around and saw that it was Qingyun.
"What are you stopping me for?"
Qingyun sighed, thinking that she didn't understand romance, "My young master didn't bully your young lady, what are you doing?"
"But……"
"Don't worry, just stay here with me."
A cool breeze blew over from the shore.
Su He's thin figure was shaking a little, and Lu Huaihe asked Qingyun to get a snow-white cloak. Su He looked at him secretly. He usually wore either official uniform or tight clothes, but tonight he wore a white suit, which made him look more elegant and flawless.
"I heard that your family is arranging a marriage for you."
Lu Huaihe said.
Su He's eyelashes trembled and he nodded.
She hadn't paid any attention to the marriage proposal her mother and Madam Duan were discussing today, nor did she care who was in the portrait.
She had just escaped from the wolf's den and hadn't even taken revenge yet, so how could she possibly put herself in it again?
Su He thought that she might have countless marriage candidates.
But there will no longer be a beloved lover.
"Do you have anyone you like?" His voice was clear, mellow and inexplicably tender.
Su He shook his head vaguely.
The next second, the back of his hand gently covered Lu Huaihe's palm.
His eyes were firm, with some unquestionable strength, and he gently said, "What about me? Can I be your candidate for marriage?"
