Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 622 Secret Love

Mrs. Hu, Mrs. Lu, was lying weakly on the bed. She was as weak as silk due to excessive blood loss during childbirth. Suddenly the queen came to visit. She didn't care about her timidity, she just grabbed Jingshu's hand and asked: " Madam, are the generals coming back?"

 Her time is running out, so naturally she is looking forward to her husband the most.

Jing Shu felt sad and held her hand and said softly: "I can write a letter to your majesty. If the frontline war allows, your majesty will definitely let General Hu come back to see you."

War is no joke. Where can soldiers have freedom when they are away from home? Some wars last for several years. Even if the father and mother pass away, it is impossible for them to come back. Some generals fight for several years outside and wait until the war is over. At home, both parents passed away, and even three years of filial piety were missed. These are common things for military commanders.

But facing Lu's expectant eyes, Jingshu couldn't say no. As a woman, she could understand Lu's state of mind firsthand.

After hearing what Jingshu said, Mrs. Lu hurriedly said: "Mother, please don't tell my general about this matter. His journey has been very difficult, and I don't want to hold him back."

Although they are from humble backgrounds, they are really the most loving couple.

 Only loving couples will think of each other wholeheartedly.

Jing Shu comforted her and said: "The front line just sent back good news a few days ago. If everything goes well, the war will probably be over in three or two months. However, the capital is far away from the mountains in the south. When the army returns, it will probably be four About a month."

Lu coughed violently, but she did not let go of Jingshu's hand. This woman, who had always been weak and timid, said firmly: "I can wait, I will definitely wait. My dear, don't go and repair your books." On the front line, I don’t want to distract my husband.”

 Because of his weak body, Mr. Lu was already out of breath when he said these words.

Jingshu agreed: "Don't worry, I won't tell General Hu, but you must take good care of yourself." Jingshu choked: "You have to wait for General Hu to come back."

Mentioning this, a satisfied smile appeared on Lu's pale face, and she murmured: "I will wait for him."

Jingshu left an imperial doctor in the general's mansion to take care of Lu. It was already difficult for her to recover. Jingshu only hoped that she could survive until Hu Dahai returned in triumph.

Although we can’t live forever, even if we are gone, we can’t leave regrets in vain.

After leaving General Hu's house, Jing Shu's heart was still heavy. Seeing Jing Shu's sadness, Ziyun persuaded her: "Although Mrs. Hu is unlucky, it is worth it if she can have her beloved treat her wholeheartedly in this life."

Jingshu sighed: "She is only about thirty-five years old. She is still so young, which is really heartbreaking."

Jingshu sighed: "I think Mrs. Hu is much happier than those noble ladies who have a glamorous appearance but cannot get the sincerity of their husbands. They watch their husbands have groups of concubines and live a life of incompleteness all day long."

“It’s really not easy for people in this life to find someone who truly loves each other and who can treat each other wholeheartedly.”

Jing Shu looked at Ziyun and replied: "You are right." As she said that, she glanced at Liang Jin who looked thoughtful and asked: "General Liang is similar in age to General Hu and General Zhou. You are good brothers who have been born and died. Hu Zhou has several children, why don’t you marry a wife?” Liang Jin was an upright man and a close official of the emperor. There were many high-ranking officials in the capital who wanted to marry his daughter to him. Yes, many noble ladies had revealed this idea to Jing Shu, hoping that the Queen would make the decision to fulfill their marriage. Naturally, among these ladies, there were also people Jing Shu liked. He also asked people to ask Liang Jin what he meant. But they were all rejected by him for various reasons.

Today, Jingshu was with him, so she simply asked herself: "Does Mr. Liang already have someone he likes?"

Liang Jin heard Jing Shu say this, and his heart beat wildly. He, who had always been steady, was so panicked that he was at a loss. He hesitated and couldn't say a word.

A few people were walking and talking. When Jing Shu was talking to Liang Jin, she was also looking ahead. After she asked this question, she caught a glimpse of Liang Jin's abnormality from the corner of her eye, and subconsciously stopped and turned her head to look. Xiang Liang Jin asked doubtfully: "General Liang, what's wrong with you?"

If you are in love with someone, you can pay careful attention to every move of the other person, even the slightest look in their eyes. Therefore, if you love the person you love most, no matter how deeply the other person hides it, you can still understand his thoughts.

Liang Jin has a cold and reserved personality. No one knows his thoughts, but Ziyun always understands.

Seeing the embarrassment on Liang Jin's face, Ziyun calmly smoothed things over for him and said, "General Liang has always been shy. If the queen asks him this, he must be shy."

With Ziyun interjecting, Liang Jin gradually calmed down and he hesitated: "I am the worst at dealing with women, so I don't want to get a wife."

This reason was too far-fetched. As soon as the words came out, even Liang Jin felt that the stupid words were too ridiculous. He glanced at Jing Shu secretly and saw that her expression remained the same, but he was very annoyed at the stupidity of his words.

Liang Jin frowned and pondered for a while, then said again: "Actually, I think what Ziyun said is reasonable."

Jingshu just mentioned Liang Jin's marriage casually. Since she didn't mean it, and there was no reason to force others to make things difficult for others, Jingshu had already exposed this issue. When she heard that Liang Jin spoke again and came back, she was slightly startled. Ziyun has already exposed this problem, and was surprised when he heard this. He quickly recalled what he had just said in his mind, and Liang Jin was actually worried about it.

When Liang Jin saw Jingshu and Ziyun looking towards her, his face turned red again, but this time he calmed down and continued: "In this life, if you can meet someone you really like, and the other person is... Only if you can think highly of yourself can you be considered perfect, but there are many regrets in the world, and since I can't do what I want, I don't want to make do with it."

 These were his innermost thoughts, and today he finally said them out in front of the person he had always loved. Although the other person could not know, Liang Jin let out a long sigh of relief after saying these words.

Jing Shu really didn't know anything about this. He would never have thought that the person Liang Jin, who had always been indifferent and silent, liked actually liked him.

Although Liang Jin has followed Li Ling for many years, there are differences between men and women. Jing Shu has only had a handful of interactions with him, and Li Ling was always present during each encounter. Like today, there are only a few palace officials between the two. This is the first time for them to get along in person.

After hearing what Liang Jin said, Jingshu smiled and replied: "General Liang is really a person of the most affectionate nature." She said nothing else.

Ziyun on the side has been staring at Liang Jin secretly, feeling uncomfortable in her heart. She has become a married woman, not because she is sad for herself, but because she truly feels sorry for Liang Jin.
