113 Deep hatred
Fu Yunchong's death was too sudden and too coincidental, and I had to wonder if there was something strange about it.
Birth, old age, sickness and death are the destiny of heaven, how can you watch a star with the power of a mortal?
Putting aside the extremely fortuitous odds, being able to accurately determine a person's death and respond appropriately to it is probably something that only the person who planned it all.
So, was Fu Yunchong's death expected or even arranged by Kuang Xixi? I can't think of anything else that can explain it—though I'm not willing to admit it.
After all, that was the teacher who taught her for many years and her strongest supporter.
What is it for that you can force an emperor who already has the world to do this?
I don't understand and I don't want to.
However, the deceased is gone, and I am outside the government and the opposition, so I have neither a position nor the ability to interfere with anything...... At this time, the problem that I had been avoiding before was finally put forward again—perhaps it was time to visit my husband.
Jia Ci died, he didn't know how sad he should be, as his wife, even if I couldn't bring him any comfort and encouragement, at least the silent companionship was within my ability.
She took a deep breath, as if she wanted to refuse, but she was defeated in my insistent gaze, knocked on the table with a cold face, and said in a deep voice: "The Fu family was originally from the Wang clan of Zechang, and their ancestors have been buried in the cemetery of their hometown for generations. I immediately sent an urgent edict to order the palace to issue an edict to allow Fu Ruozhen to help the spirit return to his hometown - we will pass through Zechang on our way, and we will definitely be able to meet, you can rest assured. ”
"Then let's set off, get to Zechang early, and feel at ease as soon as possible." I thought about it and said.
She knocked on the table with her fingertips froze, and looked up suddenly, with a little injury in her eyes in disbelief, and it disappeared in a flash, so fast that I almost thought it was my own dazzle: "From Guanlan to Zechang, hurry up all the way, let alone take three or five days, not counting the effort to write a letter and issue a letter to pack up, no need to worry." ”
As she spoke, she took a few more sips of wine, was in a hurry, choked and coughed a few times, and waved her hand as I patted her nervously on the back, indicating that she was okay.
"I was thinking, if I went earlier, I could have made arrangements as soon as possible - the prince suddenly suffered a great mourning, he must have no energy to take care of chores, and the woman and husband are one, it would be good if I could help some." I looked at her face, and slowly talked about my plans, only to feel that every time I said a word, her face became ugly, and when I said "woman and husband are one", her complexion had become calmer, but her eyes were colder than before, I don't know how many times, and the fingers holding the wine glass were loose and tight, tight and loose, and people couldn't help but worry about whether this thin porcelain wine glass as clear as jade would be crushed by her.
The next moment, she put her fingers on the wine glass, and when I was about to breathe a sigh of relief, I suddenly grabbed the same wine jug containing the wine, and with a pinch of my fingertips, I delicately opened the lid and poured it directly into the spout.
I was startled, and before I could stop it, in a few blinks, most of the pot of wine went into her stomach.
By the time I snorted softly, and I reacted to snatch the jug of wine from her hand, it was too late—I had snatched the jug without much effort, but the tentacles had no weight, and it was full of three taels of wine, and it had already been drunk.
"You ......" I opened my mouth, not knowing what to say—accusing her? On what grounds? Persuade her? In what position? Questioning her? But I don't know what she was stimulating......
"Let's go tomorrow after the morning meal, and you can rest well tonight." She said lightly, and then stood up, her steps steady, as if not affected by the strength of the wine at all, and calm.
Looking at her departing back, I suddenly felt that my heart was empty, and I didn't know how to describe it, as if someone had dug a piece of it out of my chest...... There's one more hole that hasn't been filled well.
The next morning, when I finished washing up and opened the door, she was already waiting at the door, I don't know how long she had been waiting.
Seeing that I finally came out, I didn't have any impatient expression, just nodded and said, "Let's use the morning food first, there are almond sweet cheese shortbread and red bean cake you like." ”
The two things she said are my favorite snacks, did she remember my tastes, or did she discover them in the past few days? I've heard that my tastes have changed a lot since I lost my memory, so she probably remembered my newly developed tastes...... I can't tell the trembling in my heart at that moment, a little sweet and a little sour.
The dim sum in this inn is very exquisite, but there is something hidden in my heart, and I don't have much appetite, so I just swallowed a few pieces and stopped the chopsticks and drank tea to rinse my mouth.
Kuang Xixi's chopsticks were also a meal, and he asked me quietly: "What's the matter, the craftsmanship of this house is not to taste?" Then I'll send someone to buy it from another house. ”
"No, the snacks are delicious, it's just...... I want to leave early. "If she said that she had no appetite, she probably had to worry about something wrong with my body, and thought about a breathing effort—inevitably a complicated episode of sending someone to the doctor—and so on—I deliberately explained it this way.
found that her face suddenly turned ugly, the knuckles holding the chopsticks were so tight that she could almost hear the sound of bones "creaking".
My heart tightened, and before I could open my mouth, I saw her exhale a deep breath of turbidity, as if she had suppressed some terrible emotion, and then calmed down in an instant, and even smiled at me gently, as if to soothe me, and said, "In this case, pack some food on the way, and then set off." ”
"Well......" I didn't know what to say, so I nodded my head and watched her get up and walk out first, instructing the guard at the other table to bring the carriage.
Sighing, I also stood up, was about to follow her steps to go out, my eyes inadvertently glanced, but saw that there was a thin crack on the surface of the ash chopsticks she was holding, my heart moved, I couldn't help but stretch out my fingers and touch it lightly - as if I heard a "click" sound, the chopsticks that I touched lightly suddenly broke into three sections, and the middle section turned into crumbs and powder in an instant, which shows the strength used by the applicator, and the emotional fluctuations in the heart are far beyond imagination.
I only felt that the breath that I had just sighed slowly pulled back violently, choking my brain and my chest tightened, and it took me a while to come back to my senses and hurriedly chase after me.
got into the carriage, each of them guarded a corner, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was dull and depressing.
I had the heart to break the dullness and say something, but the other party closed his eyes and recuperated with a look of reluctance to talk more, so I had to close my mouth and lift the curtain to pretend to look at the scenery - the corner of my eye involuntarily fell on the side of her face.
Different from my softer face shape, Kwong Xihui's silhouette is more angular, but not delicate, when she looks at people expressionlessly, there is always a breathtaking momentum, teaching people not to dare to be presumptuous in front of her; However, when she softened, it was just a smile with a shallow arc, but it was like a spring breeze and snow, ten miles of floating flowers, teaching people to irresistible charm, I don't know how many tricks Xiaolangjun is rare, presumably even a woman is ...... Shaking my head, startled by my own ridiculous thoughts, I quickly looked away and sat upright, but my heart was pounding.
When he was flustered, he heard the cold and soft voice say softly: "Really...... Are you in such a hurry to see him? ”
"Huh? What the? She looked at her reflexively, but she didn't meet my gaze, but stared faintly at the teacup on the low table in the carriage, as if she didn't care, and just asked casually—if I hadn't been paying close attention to her expression, I am afraid that it would have been difficult to find that her fists at her side were almost bloodless, far from being as indifferent as she appeared.
I vaguely understood who the "he" she was referring to, and when I was about to answer, I hesitated again - it was only natural for me to reunite with my husband, why did she worry about it? Why did she teach her such a question, which forced me to feel inexplicably empty? (Note 1)
I thought about it again and again, but finally I was silent.
She didn't force me to answer, as if the question she blurted out just now was just an unintentional mutter, just a catharsis of some kind of emotion.
There was another unbearable silence, and all that sustained me was a few words of the mantra that I recited silently when I closed my eyes and a moment when I quietly looked at the mesmerizing side face when she wasn't looking.
After five days of suffering, the carriage finally arrived at Beiwu Street in Zechang City, and stopped at the door of a mansion with high walls and red tiles.
If nothing else, this is my husband, the ancestral home of Fu Ruozhen's family, right? It is worthy of a famous family.
Just got out of the carriage and was facing the courtyard and praising him, he heard an elegant and calm male voice sounding not far away, and there was a trace of excitement in his voice that could not be ignored: "Your Highness! ”
Following the prestige, a group of men, women, and children dressed in white linen clothes stood in a row, bending down to greet both sides of the gate, and it was a young and handsome man who stood first.
I frowned, and watched the man who excitedly called me "Your Highness" and then eagerly stepped forward with the hem of his clothes, and was about to pounce into my arms, I couldn't help but take half a step back, and turned my face to see Kuang Xixi, who had been silent since getting out of the car as if blending into the background.
She carried my delicate baggage in one hand and a sword in the other, pretending to be an ordinary guard, and the expression on her face was faint, and her scrutinizing gaze passed me straight at the man who was hurrying towards me, as if she was dutifully assessing the identity of the person who came, and guarding my safety.
Only I realized that there was only half a look in her eyes, half a point of contempt, and the remaining nine points were as cold as looking at a dead thing.
I felt like I was blessed to the heart, and I could immediately affirm that this young man was my husband, Fu Ruozhen.
As for Kuang Xixi's attitude towards Fu Ruozhen, it is really intriguing - those who don't know it, they still think they have some deep hatred. 166 Reading Network
