Chapter 163: Leaving the House
The air in the room seemed to become viscous, Rong Xi's expression seemed to become transparent in the night, and it was clearly visible, but Leng Yixiu felt that his eyes were a little blurry, and he couldn't really see it clearly no matter what.
Yes, I have never understood her, her joys and angers, her hobbies, and the things she has at her fingertips are not the same as the rumors and the impressions of herself.
And it is such a big gap that has always attracted his attention, and then he realized that he was completely in love with her until he became addicted.
But what about her?
seems to like herself, risking her own life, trimming and eliminating her heart that was originally Rong Qiu's heart little by little, and finally a heart belongs to her completely, but now she is so determined.
Leave no room for error.
"You really ...... Want to go? Leng Yixiu opened his mouth mechanically, and asked the question in his heart with difficulty, every word was like an arrow with a hook, stabbing him fiercely in his heart, and then bringing out a trace of flesh and blood.
"Yes." Rong Xi turned her head to look at him, her eyes were clear, as if passing through his side, looking into the distant void.
She was obviously slender and thin, but she had a posture of looking at the world, and suddenly a warm wind blew, pulling her hair, and hunting in this dark night like a fluttering battle flag.
Leng Yixiu's heart trembled, and he suddenly realized that such a Rong Xi ...... Maybe there should be a wider world, she really ...... It doesn't belong to him anymore.
He closed his eyes gently, the heat in his heart dissipated, and the pain had already become numb, like ice that had been frozen for thousands of years in a cold pool, and every drop of blood coagulated.
"Okay."
It was destined to be a sleepless night, and several important people in the palace did not fall asleep.
Rong Xi was lying on the bed, staring at the curtain on the top of the bed, staring at the cumbersome carved patterns, and constantly counting the hollowed out holes on it, repeatedly.
Leng Yixiu locked himself in the study, but did not light the lamp, he opened his eyes, his eyes were like stars in the night, "looking" at the letters on the desk, including a qiē incident that happened to Rong Xi in Eastern Xinjiang, which was sorted out by Leng 15 and Leng 16 each, he had read it countless times, as if he could see Rong Xi's heart from it, but now, he didn't have the courage to look at it again.
Rong Qiu walked around the room in the other garden, sat down in front of the mirror when he was tired, carefully looked at his face, or chuckled, or tender, or gentle, and kept changing different expressions in the mirror, feeling that each one was a hundred times more moving than Rong Xi.
The moonlight finally faded, the golden light in the sky erupted in the east, and the clouds on the horizon were dyed a beautiful orange red.
A new day has finally arrived.
There was no extra sound in the Red Sleeve Garden, it was quieter than usual, everyone knew what happened last night, and they were all cautious, even breathing as slowly and lightly as possible.
The mothers and cooks in the small kitchen worked hard, getting up an hour earlier than usual to make breakfast, the princess is not easy to mess with, she was angry again last night, if she is angry this morning, in case...... What to do if you get the gas out of the kitchen? After all, there is a criminal record here.
Rong Xi sat at the dining table and looked at the more and more exquisite dishes, and naturally understood what those people thought, in fact, there was no need, after eating this meal, he was going to walk out of this Ning Wangfu and get out of touch with here, and the small kitchen here should not be stored zài, presumably Leng Yixiu didn't even bother to look at these, right?
Well, according to his temperament, this Red Sleeve Garden should also be sealed, right?
Rong Xi ate one bite at a time, no matter when, she couldn't treat herself badly, not to mention that it was still this special period, Xiao'er stood beside her, without saying a word, hanging her head, but her ears were standing up to listen to the movement outside.
"Come in." Rong Xi finished eating the last bite of porridge in the bowl, put down the jade bowl in his hand and said softly.
Leng Fifteen walked in from the outside, Rong Xi didn't look at him, but knew his intention from his footsteps, and Xiao'er turned his head, and when he saw the paper in his hand, his face changed slightly.
Leng Fifteen met Xiao'er's gaze, frowning a little embarrassed, Xiao'er saw his expression, and his whole heart sank.
"Bring it." Rong Xi rinsed his mouth and said lightly.
"Princess......" Leng Fifteen seemed to sigh, but his hand shrank back, and his eyes fell on the thin piece of paper.
From the back of the paper, you can also see the body of the prince's pen, the pen peak is sharp, the atmosphere is stretched, like his personality, Leng Fifteen stared at the word, remembering Leng Yixiu's expression this morning.
His heart was a little sour, a little cold, the prince...... I guess it's rare to smile in the future, right?
"Xiao'er, go prepare something." Rong Xi turned his head and said to Xiao'er, who was stunned on the side.
"Yes." Xiao'er bit her lip, looked at the paper in Leng Fifteen's hand again, turned around and slowly left.
Leng Fifteen took a breath slowly, the princess was really different from other women, her calmness and decisiveness showed her difference at this moment, seeing that she meant that she had already been prepared, she was really determined to leave the palace!
Did she ever think about how she would live without the palace? Even though...... No matter how strong she is, she is a woman after all.
"Princess......" Leng Fifteen couldn't help but want to open his mouth to remind him, but what did he want to say? The matter has become a foregone conclusion, and the letter of resignation was written by Leng Yixiu himself, and it is in his hands at the moment.
"Needless to say." Rong Xi interrupted him lightly, raised his slender chin, and nodded at the small table under the window, "Put it there." ”
"......" Leng Fifteen lowered his head and walked over slowly, he never knew that such a close distance would sometimes be so difficult.
He pinched the piece of paper in his fingertips again, as if every exertion could change its contents, and finally, he closed his eyes slightly, raised his hand and placed the paper on the small table.
The small table of mahogany is polished smooth and delicate, with the unique warm feel of wood, and at this moment, Leng Fifteen only feels a kind of bone-seeping coolness.
As...... When he took the letter of resignation from the prince's hand, he inadvertently touched the same temperature as his fingertips.
"Alright, you go down first." Rong Xi watched him put it down, turned his head to look out the window, the leaves of the pearls had grown bigger, and the color was darker, densely blocking the sunlight that came over, "Wait a minute, I will take Xiao'er out of the house, and Mr. Li will also go with me, those things, you can go back to him, I will cooperate if you need to check it." ”
"Princess......" Leng Fifteen turned around with difficulty, how could he pass on this kind of words? Doesn't letting the prince listen to it is equivalent to making up for a knife in his heart?
How did this happen? Obviously, both of them have affection for each other and are willing to do everything for each other, but why did they suddenly become like this?!
Leng Fifteen wanted to beat someone, but he couldn't find an outlet, he felt that he was about to explode, looking at Rong Xi's still faint expression, he took a few heavy breaths, clenched his fists and strode out.
Rong Xi slowly stood up, turned around and walked to the small table, a ray of sunlight jumped in from the window, quietly spread in front of the crimson small table, the delicate and smooth wood texture gently unfolded in front of his eyes, and the line of golden sunlight gave it another layer of warmth.
It's just that the squarely folded book of resignation lay there gently, like a piece of falling snow in winter, with an overwhelming cold, which washed away the warmth of that line, jumped into Rong Xi's eyes, and seeped into her heart.
Leng Yixiu...... Say goodbye! But I hope you don't regret it.
"Miss......" Xiao'er called softly, her voice trembled slightly, although she had already prepared her mind, but this kind of thing really came to her eyes, Xiao'er was still a little panicked.
The thoughts in her head were already ingrained, and she really didn't dare to think about what kind of life Miss would start after she was divorced, how to face those rumors, and ...... in the future Is it going to be so lonely and old?
"Packed up?" Rong Xi looked back at her, Xiao'er changed into a little girl's clothes, which the two had agreed before. There weren't many things, just two small burdens, and in them were several sets of clothes for two people, and there was a small wooden box in her arms, which contained the silver tickets she had earned from selling jewelry.
Xiao'er nodded, in fact, the things had already been packed up, most of the things were not taken, only a few sets of men's clothes that were ordered a few days ago, as well as silver tickets and some broken silver, a few pieces of jewelry that were sold left, and nothing else.
"Okay." Rong Xi smiled, "You go outside and wait for me." ”
Xiao'er bowed her head and left, Rong Xi sat in front of the dressing mirror, looking at herself in the mirror, her appearance was that of Rong Xi before, but the look between her eyebrows and eyes, the brilliance in her eyes had changed the charm of the previous person.
And from today on, this Rong Xi has nothing to do with Ning Wangfu, she will go out from here, set foot in the mountains and rivers, and open another unknown future.
Xiao'er turned her head to look at Rong Xi who came out, she had changed into a men's dress, a dark blue brocade robe, the neckline and cuffs were embroidered with delicate bamboo leaf dark lines, elegant and exquisite, shining in the sun with the unique warm light of silk, and a moon-white belt was tied around her waist, like a ray of moonlight on the sea, and the whole person was like an elegant son who came from the sea.
Even if she was in a bad mood, Xiao'er couldn't help laughing, "Miss, you are dressed like this, but you are going to fascinate countless women." ”
Rong Xi couldn't help but smile, "Then I have to charm you first." ”
"Miss, have you forgotten? The slave is now your personal scholar and servant. Xiao'er said mischievously.
"Alright, scholar, let's go." Rong Xi waved his hand and strode forward.
As soon as the master and servant came out of the Red Sleeve Garden, they saw Li Haijiang running over panting, holding a burden in his hand, and when they saw the two people's eyes lit up, they immediately ran over quickly.
Rong Xi nodded, and she left King Ning's Mansion with two people.
There was no looking back.
