There was silence.
Rong Xiu paused briefly and raised his eyes to look at Chu Liuyue.
"You are Shangguan Yue, and you are also Chu Liuyue."
Chu Liuyue frowned.
"You clearly know that's not what I asked."
"But these two are indeed your identities." Rong Xiu replied, "The person who knows who you are best should actually be you."
Chu Liuyue felt a lump in her chest.
She paused.
"Rong Xiu, I have remembered something."
"You were the one who played chess with me at the Bajiao Pavilion, you were the one who deliberately drank my ginger tea, and you were the one who made a lifelong promise with me."
Chu Liuyue looked at him, and every time he said another word, the scene from that year would appear in his mind.
Most of it is fragmented and blurry, but these few fragments are all very clear.
"You have long known that I lost part of my memory, but you have never mentioned it to me. And in that disappeared past, the only thing I remember is you."
These are enough to explain too many things.
"We have obviously known each other for a long time, and I even said that I would go back and declare our marriage to my father, but - what happens after that?"
She couldn't remember where they first met, let alone what happened after that agreement. So after she returned to the Tianling Dynasty, she actually got engaged to Jiang Yucheng again, and even the following things happened. So many things!
She once thought that she liked Jiang Yucheng, but later when she met Rong Xiu, she realized that it was not actually a liking, but at most a lack of dislike based on various conditions.
When she learned that Jiang Yucheng and Shangguan Wan were joining forces, she felt even more angry and heartbroken at being betrayed by someone she trusted.
Thinking about it carefully, she didn't seem to care that much about them secretly being together.
It was just that she was harmed by an adulterer and was temporarily blinded by anger, and all she could think about was revenge.
She hadn't noticed it before, but now that she remembered some things, she found a lot of things that were wrong.
Since she and Rong Xiu have been together for a long time, and even promised to go back and talk to her father about it, it is impossible for her to make an engagement with anyone else.
What happened after she returned to Tianling
Rong Xiu looked at her deeply and sighed softly.
It seemed like joy and pity.
"It turns out you have already remembered so much."
No wonder that totem
He was silent for a while, and then, as if he had made some important decision, he said:
"We did know each other three years ago."
Chu Liuyue's heart skipped a beat!
three years ago!
It has been one and a half years since she was reborn, and two and a half years since her death.
If they met three years ago
That means they knew each other at least half a year before her death
As if he guessed what Chu Liuyue was thinking, Rong Xiu smiled and shook his head:
"Actually, it took longer than you thought. Later, you said you wanted to go back, and that's when we separated. But just a few months after that, something happened to you. You know everything that happened after that."
The blood in Chu Liuyue's eardrums gurgled loudly, causing her pain.
It was as if an invisible hand suddenly squeezed her heart, making it almost difficult to breathe!
She asked with difficulty, her throat tight.
"So, my rebirth in the Yaochen Empire has something to do with you?"
Fortunately, she saved a life, and she happened to be reborn in the body of Chu Liuyue of the Yaochen Empire. Moreover, that day, she happened to meet Rong Xiu!
There are so many coincidences that people can't help but be suspicious.
When Rong Xiu heard this, he lightly rubbed his fingertips on the tea cup.
There was silence in the room.
Every minute and every second became extremely painful.
Just when Chu Liuyue thought Rong Xiu wouldn't answer, he finally spoke.
"yes."
"I was there on purpose, waiting for your return."
"Why haven't the two of them come out yet? I don't know what they were talking about, but they have been chatting for so long?"
After the thirty-six elders of Ming Dynasty took care of some trivial matters after the concubine selection ceremony, they also came to the Temple of Sacrifice.
From afar, he saw Yan Qing and Yu Mo guarding the door of the room, and couldn't help asking strangely.
"I have met the thirty-six elders of Ming Dynasty."
The two of them saluted respectfully.
Ming Thirty-sixth Elder waved his hands and raised his chin, unable to conceal his curiosity.
"how is everything?"
"Old man, you also know that there are mysterious formations and barriers around this sacrificial temple. If His Highness doesn't want us to hear and see, there are naturally ways to do it. We don't know what the situation is inside!"
Yu Mo answered cautiously while raising his eyes to look at the pale sky in the distance.
Most of the night passed, and it was already daybreak.
But the people inside didn't come out, and they didn't dare to disturb them without permission.
"Girl, the princess traveled all the way, it was very hard, she may have rested directly inside."
Ming Thirty-sixth Elder stroked his beard and understood very well.
Glancing out of the corner of his eye, his movements suddenly stopped.
"Is that the child who came with the princess before?"
He asked, pointing to a small purple figure sitting on a jade bench in the distance.
"Yes. He has been here since yesterday, until now."
Speaking of this child, Yu Mo and Yan Qing also had a headache.
When His Highness and the Princess came back yesterday, the child had been with the Princess.
Later, the princess said she wanted to talk to His Highness alone, so she left the child behind.
Originally, they had specially arranged a room for him to rest, but no matter how they tried to persuade him, he remained indifferent and sat directly there.
They thought that it was okay for the child to have a stubborn temper. At worst, they would wait until he could no longer hold on and fell asleep before sending him to the house.
Who knew that he had maintained that posture until now!
"strangeness."
Old Ming Thirty-Six narrowed his eyes slightly.
That child didn't look like an ordinary child.
Moreover, although there were no Force fluctuations on his body, he actually had some kind of awe-inspiring aura.
I'm afraid this child is unusual.
Ming Thirty-Six Elders thought for a while and said:
"Let him do whatever he wants."
"yes."
He glanced back at the closed door again.
"That's all, I'll come back later!"
After saying that, he turned around and planned to leave.
However, just after taking a few steps, there was the sound of the door opening behind him.
Squeak—
"Did Mr. Ming Thirty-Six come to this palace for something?"
Rong Xiu's low and slightly hoarse voice came.
"I have met His Highness!"
Yan and Qing saluted quickly.
Ming thirty-six elders looked back.
Rong Xiu was still wearing the black clothes from yesterday, and his eyes were slightly green, as if he hadn't slept all night.
Ming Thirty-Six Elders glanced inside, but unfortunately didn't see anything.
"How is the princess?"
Rong Xiu smiled lightly.
"She's asleep now."
During this period of continuous running and the gradual recovery of her memory, she really needed a good rest.
"That's good"
Old Ming Thirty-six nodded in relief, then looked more serious and asked in a deep voice:
"Your Highness, have you heard about the academy?"
