Chapter Ninety-Two: Abandoning His Mother and Returning to the City
Although Ruoyu is a woman, she has the boldness of a man, and she has no intention of persuading, so she suddenly got up, met his gaze, and said in a small voice: "Whatever you want, since you have no intention of going back, then what I say will be useless." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Chu Shenxia lowered his eyes and was silent, bowed slightly, and made a send-off appearance, the corners of Ruoyu's mouth twitched, turned to leave, walked to the door and paused again, and finally said the words that Fang had swallowed a few times, "Hu Po was sent by His Royal Highness to kill him, just because he fought for your father and son in the main hall to kill." ”
The cup in his hand slipped, and when he got out of his palm, he slammed on the edge of the table and fell to the ground, and when he turned around in a crisp sound, Ruoyu's figure had long since disappeared.
Looking at the porcelain piece, Chu Shenxia couldn't help but look at it, a white light flashed in his mind, and he stood up with a "Teng", walked quickly to the inner room, and took a box from the mahogany shelf.
Inside is a white porcelain bowl, which was a birthday gift given to him by Chu Zhi ten years ago, and he was very unhappy when he received the bowl, and complained to Li Luo for a long time, saying how his father perfunctory himself. As a result, I learned that this was made by Chu Zhi for him personally, and there were four words printed on the bottom of the white porcelain, Wu'er is healthy.
The fingertips gently swiped the smooth mouth of the bowl, and at this moment I felt how simple my father's wish was from the heart, but it was so heavy. It's a pity that the Si people have passed away, and when I think of these again, it is sweet and pantothenic, and in the end it is bitter.
Chu Shenxia took a breath, searched carefully in the brocade box, and finally found a piece of tissue paper in the mezzanine, on which the names of many officials were densely written.
After quickly reading the content on the paper, the darkness inside was so outrageous that Chu Shenxia couldn't imagine it, his eyes fell on the white porcelain again, and his heart couldn't help but twitch.
My father was in officialdom for eight years, just to expose the darkness. He didn't intend to go along with it from the beginning, but he endured so many years of indifference.
Chu Shenxia finally understood what he said, I can't help Shen Yu, but I have never been sorry for you.
Hearing footsteps not far away, and knowing that it was my mother coming, I hurriedly stuffed the paper into the cuffs, put the white bowl back into the box, and just put it back on the shelf, and the people outside the house came in.
"Huh? What about the girl? Li Luo glanced into the back room, and then looked at the door.
"She still has something to do, so let's go back first." Chu Shenxia walked out of the back room, straightened his clothes, bumped into Jing Luo's gaze behind Li Luo, and moved away again: "Mother, are all things packed?" ”
The two of them were shocked, and some suspected that they had heard it wrong, Jing Min couldn't help it, and asked first: "Will you go back to the Taoist Temple today?" Found a lost item? ”
"Yes, Shen Xia, something found? If I don't find it, I can wait two more days before you run down the hill again. Li Luo clenched the handkerchief in his hand and looked at him very nervously.
Chu Shenxia really couldn't bear to meet her ten thousand years of glare, and lowered his eyes and said, "If my mother is cleaned up, I will send my mother to the Taoist temple before sunset today." ”
Li Luo nodded, didn't hear the strangeness in his words, looked around, and asked, "What about you?" How's it going? I see that the contents of your room don't seem to have moved half a minute. ”
Although she didn't hear anything unusual, Jing Yan had already caught that something was wrong, and her already hanging heart was even more uneasy at the moment, and she asked, "You sent your mother to the Taoist temple?" Could it be that you want to come back? ”
Chu Shenxia saw that the eyes of the two of them were so burning that they couldn't look at them directly, so he had to bite the bullet and said, "Mother, something happened to Jiankang, I may have to go back." ”
"Don't go." Li Luo said in a deep voice, his attitude was unprecedentedly firm, he paused, looked at him without squinting and continued, "If you have to go, just die there, and never come back, and you will not have this mother in the future." ”
In fact, Li Luo is not such a pedantic and resolute person, but her son and husband have left one after another, and she really can't accept that the last straw will be interrupted.
What is everyone's demeanor, what is right and wrong, who is this world, who is Mingjun, and what does it have to do with her? She just wants the people she cares about to be well.
Chu Shenxia saw that his mother's face was pale, his heart seemed to be suffocated, and his shoulders seemed to be pressed by a boulder weighing tens of millions of catties, and finally slowly knelt down.
"Mother, the child is not filial, the child can't watch the prince being played with power, and he can't forget Shen Yu's unjust case. If my mother forced me to go up the mountain and wanted me to spend an ordinary life on the mountain, then my mother would definitely not do it, and I would only live with regret in hating my powerlessness every day. Mother, sometimes destroying a person is not a sudden disease or killing, but a collapse of the heart, a kind of damage that nothing can resist, because it penetrates every blood, every bone, and pierces the soul in the deep valley. ”
Li Luo wiped the tears on his face with a handkerchief, and suddenly his emotions were out of control, and he hid his face and cried, no less sad than the moment he knew that Chu Zhi was dead.
Seeing that her mother was so sad, Chu Shenxia naturally knelt silently, not daring to say anything more, but Jing Min kept patting her on the shoulder.
After crying for a while, Li Luo stopped crying, and looked at Chu Shenxia with scarlet eyes, but his eyes were very ethereal, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he didn't speak.
"Have you ever thought about your mother's pain?" Li Luo opened her mouth and only said one sentence, and the tears that had just stopped crawled out again, and she wiped her tears and said: "I didn't know before, your child's heart is so hard, what should your mother do when you leave?" The hope and sustenance of my life have collapsed since then, who will stop the falling sky for me? After your brother left, I felt that time was a nightmare of my life, and I could feel the pain of my heart twitching even in my dreams. But when your father is gone, I only feel like my heart has been ripped out, and it is empty, but the pain of tearing out my heart has not faded for a minute. ”
She took a deep breath, and saw that the robe between his knees was already half wet, and her heart was even more painful, and she sobbed: "Mother knows that this is unfair to you, it is your mother who resisted the road of the second half of your life, and the thousand-pound mountain on your body is also given by your mother, which is unfair to you, and your mother can't stand you, because your mother is too selfish." But my mother just can't help but want to tie you firmly to her side, as long as I think that you can't come back, my mother will not only die alone, but also go to the grave for the three of you every year, my mother feels so cruel. I don't even have the courage to imagine what it would be like. ”
"Knock, knock," Chu Shenxia kowtowed again and again, and said while kowtowing: "Children are not filial, children are not filial." ”
Every time he knocked, the voice crashed into Li Luo's heart, caught a piece of blood on his forehead, his eyes trembled, his legs went limp, he fell to him, and knelt in front of him.
Chu Shenxia and Jing Yan were shocked at the same time, Chu Shenxia hurriedly reached out to help her, but she hugged her and let her cry on her shoulder: "What is going on?" What did I do in my last life? Mother doesn't embarrass you, she doesn't embarrass you! Don't embarrass your mother, okay, you go, I'll let you go! ”
Jing Yan slowly withdrew his outstretched hand, his brows tightened, and tears were about to fall out of his eyes, he hurriedly walked two steps, holding on to the edge of the door and clenching his teeth.
His breath was heavy and chaotic, and he couldn't control his tears anymore, looking down at the threshold, he only felt that the tears were as heavy as beads, drop by drop, as if there was a sound.
Not far away, a bird flew by, and the strange cry made the scene even more miserable, no matter how dark and miserable it was below, the sun in the highest place was still too bright to look at.
The sound of the horse's hooves under the crotch was very urgent, but the horsewhip in Chu Shenxia's hand did not stop, and the farmers who passed by were frightened by this sound, and wanted to retreat, but they still couldn't escape the end of eating a mouthful of dust.
His mind was extremely chaotic, and he couldn't think of anything at the moment, he only knew that he was going back to Jiankang, and he didn't know that his hand was waving a horsewhip at all.
When he saw a parked carriage in the middle of the road, he finally came back to his senses, but it was too late to avoid it, "Peng! With a bang, Chu Shenxia was lifted off the horse's back by this force, rolled on the ground a few times, and hit the trunk of the tree before stopping.
Fortunately, the owner of the carriage went out into the woods on a whim, and his groom jumped out of the carriage in time, and no one was hurt, but the carriage was not presentable, and obviously could not be used.
The horseman was angry, and he was about to have a seizure, but someone stuffed a silver ingot in his hand, and before he could react, Chu Shenxia had already untied the reins, turned over and wanted to leave.
The coachman hurriedly chased after him and said, "This is my horse, my horse ......"
Chu Shenxia didn't hear the second half of the sentence, the whip in his hand was still waving up and down, and he ran towards Jiankang.
In the past few days, except for Liu Yan's people, almost all the ministers have jointly played the crown prince, and all kinds of evidence have pointed to him, no matter how much the emperor believes him, he can't always choose to be perfunctory in the face of the Manchu Dynasty's doubts.
Everyone is waiting for the emperor's words, whether to move or not to move, who dares to move him Liu Yan if the emperor says that he is not moving? And once it moves, it means that the relationship between father and son collapses again.
If Liu Yan is bitten and framed again, the emperor may not have the face to treat him again, this is not only the relationship between father and son, but even involves the face of an emperor.
The minister was anxious, the emperor was entangled, and Liu Yan was no better, wanting to send someone to clean up all the clues, but he was watched by countless eyes behind him, and all actions were under their control.
Liu Yan even laughed at himself, he was afraid that he would eat a few bites of food a day, and the last few times he went to the toilet would be reported to him meticulously, although he was not imprisoned, but this kind of invisible surveillance was a thousand times uncomfortable.
What made him even more desperate was that Ruoyu, who came back from Jincheng, told him that Chu Shenxia would not come back, and he was so concise that he didn't even want to say a word, Liu Yan didn't understand what happened between her and Chu Shenxia, but when he saw her like this, he naturally understood in his heart that no matter what happened, it would be unpleasant.
