Chapter 25: Farewell
The news that Gao Mingxuan was going to defect to the prince spread in the mansion, and for a while it was like an explosion, and there were many discussions from top to bottom, some people were secretly happy, and some people were worried about him.
The two cousins came to visit Gao Mingxuan, and Gao Zixin asked straight to the point: "Mingxuan, you have nothing wrong with your brain, what are you going to do at this time, don't you want to die?" ”
Gao Qihao coughed lightly beside him: "Your eldest brother is a rough man, don't worry about him, we are just worried about you, it is not a wise move to defect to the prince at this time." ”
Gao Mingxuan insisted on his opinion, and instead persuaded the two cousins: "Now is the crisis of the Northern Li Kingdom, staying in the mansion is useless, it is better to go to the prince's side to do your part, although the future is slim, but there is also a glimmer of life, if you brothers are interested, it is better to go with me." ”
Gao Zixin refused, Gao Qihao hesitated, but his personality is also submissive on weekdays, and he can't make up his mind, he stammered: "This, I'm afraid this is not good, we won't trouble you." ”
In this way, Gao Mingxuan has already decided to go to the east, Liu Yingxue still feels uncomfortable in her heart, she is scared and frightened, in case he is like his father and brother, he will never come back after leaving, what a bad thing it will be, she came to the door of his bedroom, knocked lightly, and stood outside the door with trepidation in her heart.
Gao Mingxuan opened the door and looked at the petite figure at the door, her expression was helpless and sad, as if she had deeply captured his heart, if it weren't for the dangers ahead, he would have wanted to take her with him.
"Cousin, you'll be leaving tomorrow, and I'm here to say goodbye to you." She tried her best to hide the sadness in her eyes, and took off the jade pendant around her neck as she spoke, this is not a precious object, just an ordinary jadeite, so Hongmei didn't look at the jade pendant at the beginning, and it can be regarded as staying.
She slowly put the jade pendant into Gao Mingxuan's hand and smiled slightly: "This jade pendant is a relic of my mother's relatives, and I have nothing else on my body that can be given to my cousin. ”
This jade pendant is made in the shape of a cicada, the wings are emerald green, and it looks crystal clear, Gao Mingxuan only feels a cool feeling in the palm of his hand, as if it is not the jade pendant that he is holding, but her tears.
"I'll be back, Xiaoxue." He hung her jade pendant around her neck and stroked her head gently as he had done before.
The moment he put down his hand, Liu Yingxue grabbed his fingertips tightly, her little face showed a serious expression, and she mustered up the courage to say, "Cousin, I will wait for you to come back, no matter how long it takes." ”
She has nothing to lose anymore, and her cousin is the only one who is good to her right now.
"Silly girl, how can you keep waiting for me, in a few years, I will ask my grandmother to find a good family for you, and then find a husband who can be relied on for life." He let go of her hand, and his dark eyes became very deep, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.
Today's situation is not at all the time when children are in love, and she can see the depression in his eyes, as well as hope and hesitation for the future.
"Cousin, take care!" She pursed her lips, and after saying these words softly, she quickly turned to leave, she didn't dare to stay any longer, otherwise the tears would flow uncontrollably.
