Chapter 121: Expulsion
"Don't you understand? Then I'll explain it to you! Zhao Ling looked at Ruyan coldly, "I have always regarded you as a confidant, even the most hidden plan, although I didn't take the initiative to tell you, but I never deliberately hid it from you!" I'm sure you've had some unrealistic illusions about me, but you're loyal to me! β
He smiled self-deprecatingly and continued: "But you disappointed me so much, I only want to ask you, did Su Xuan's plan for the death shield be revealed to Zhao Ye!" β
Ruyan's body stiffened, lowered her eyes and thought about it and said: "Ruyan does know that the prince plans to help Miss Su Xuan die, but this matter is definitely not leaked by the slave maid, the slave maid once persuaded the prince to marry Miss Su Xuan, what is the benefit of doing this to the slave maid?" It's not the slave and maid who know about this matter, maybe someone else accidentally said it, and it may not be necessarily! β
"You don't have to leak the plan on time It's Xiaoyu who leaks the plan, I believe in her!" Zhao Ling's expression became more and more cold, "You used to be one of my most trusted people, if there was no evidence, I wouldn't have suspected you, you can leak secrets to Zhao Ye, do you think there is no one with me by Zhao Ye's side?" Before I have the patience to talk to you about things, it's better to tell the truth! β
Ruyan suddenly collapsed to the ground, she could have continued to quibble, and she didn't admit it if she was killed, but that didn't mean anything to her, since the prince had begun to doubt her, then she would definitely not let herself stay by his side anymore, and the result was the same.
She wiped her tears, bit her lip and nodded: "I revealed the news!" β
Zhao Ling closed his eyes and couldn't hide his disappointment, although he already had the evidence, but he still hoped that the news he got was wrong, this woman had been by his side for eight years, and her henchman who could once trust her life would betray him today!
"Why?" The lighter Zhao Ling's tone was, the more angry he was in his heart.
"The slave and the maid did not betray the son, and the slave and the maid will not betray the son of the world if they die! Ruyan will do this, just because Ruyan loves you, and Ruyan wants to be your woman for real! Ruyan grabbed her collar and said bitterly, "Su Xuan's appearance made the slave maid see hope, if the prince can marry Su Xuan, then he should not refuse the slave and maid again, but the last choice of the prince is indeed to send Su Xuan away!" The slave maid thought to herself at the time that if the plan of this death shield was destroyed, then the prince should return to the previous plan and marry Su Xuan, but the slave maid did not expect that Su Xuan would fall into the wolf's mouth! β
"There are so many things in this world that you can't think of, but since you have done it, you have to be responsible for what you have done!" Zhao Ling's tone was still cold and indifferent, "You have followed me for so many years, you should know my temper, I don't kill you, it can be regarded as repaying your sister's life-saving grace to me back then, and you and I have nothing to do with each other from now on!" β
"No, I'm not leaving!" Ruyan knelt in front of Zhao Ling, hugged his legs and cried, "For so many years, I have been able to live only by looking at the back of the prince, please, don't drive me away, I can't live without you!" β
"That's your business, what does it have to do with me?" Zhao Ling said coldly, "You go by yourself, this is the last dignity I give you!" β
Ruyan raised his head in surprise, yes, the man in front of him was cold, never a good person, he was just blinded by his gentleness over the years, and he naively thought that he had at least occupied a place in a corner of his heart, and now it was ridiculous to think about it! Because of his sister, he barely glanced at himself, and now he has no temperature in his eyes, and he is obviously just a useless thing in his eyes.
She laughed miserably, the mechanism was exhausted, but she still couldn't escape this ending, but in this long life, if she couldn't look at him again, what was the point of living!
Since he spoke, even if he was stalked, there was no possibility of turning back, it was just sad, she kowtowed to Zhao Ling, and said with tears in her eyes: "Ruyan can no longer serve the son, take care of the son!" β
Then he got up, walked to the door very reluctantly, threw himself on the side of the door and cried, looked back with tears, the indifference on the face of the prince did not loosen at all, and the despair in his heart suddenly rose, as if there was an invisible hand pinching her throat, as if there was an invisible mouth laughing at her wishful thinking, she bit her lip and ran out of the Chu Wangfu with the only dignity left, but the world is vast, where should she go?
Jiang Xiaoyu asked Yanyan to pack a few clothes simply, and he went to say goodbye to Jiang Yuan and the old lady. Because of the inexplicable appearance of the matter of the Cardinal Sect, they felt the crisis, and the fear of ten years hit again, now that Jiang Xiaoyu is far away from the capital, they naturally can't ask for it, and when they are no longer sure that the matter of the Cardinal Sect will not affect them, they hope that she will go as far as possible.
And Liu Ruli originally planned to renew the old lady's life for another half a year, but now because of the eldest lady's suicide, she had to change her strategy and use medicine to prolong her life as much as possible, but the consequence was that her body was weak, hanging, and dragging ...... It's better to die simply, as a doctor, he couldn't bear it, but he had to do it for Jiang Xiaoyu.
On the way to the Taoyao Hospital, Jiang Xiaoyu met Jiang Youran, it turned out that the flamboyant girl because of the sudden death of her mother, she lost her shelter and became docile, and greeted her from afar: "The eldest sister looks good, those rumors of Lao Shizi are not taken to heart!" β
"Since it's a rumor, naturally don't bother, I'm going out with the son of the world at the moment, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a few months, and my father and old lady at home will have to trouble you to take care of it!" Jiang Xiaoyu said with a smile, humanity is easy to change, but it is just untouchable, after the ups and downs of life, seeing the warmth and coldness of people, what has to change, and what can be good if you stubbornly want to be happy?
In all fairness, Jiang Xiaoyu hated that his mother's death was inseparable from the eldest lady, but he didn't have much hatred for the two sisters who were still children back then, and it was only Jiang Huiran who embarrassed herself in the past ten years, and they didn't bully themselves, but the eldest lady repeatedly set traps in the next few times, and had a relationship with these two sisters, so this relationship has reached the point where it is incompatible today.
If people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, if Jiang Youran is still the same as before, she has a way to clean her up, but now she is low and small, so that she can't do it. As for Jiang Yiran's backer, unless necessary, she has no need to provoke for the time being, and she can be safe and sound.
"Eldest sister rest assured, younger sister will do her best!" Jiang leisurely lowered his eyes.
After separating from Jiang Youran, after Jiang Xiaoyu went back, she thought carefully about what to do next, and had a rough idea in her heart, just waiting for the car from the Chu Palace's mansion to come and pick her up to meet Zhao Ling.
In the afternoon, the frame of the Chu Wangfu came, and Yang Xing personally came to pick up Jiang Xiaoyu. And when Zhao Ling travels, he can rest assured that his fiancΓ©e, who is deeply trapped in the whirlpool of public opinion, is reasonable, and others know the character of the son, so they will not suspect anything, but when Jiang Xiaoyu's future is not clear, he can still make such a loving move, and they all praise him for being affectionate and righteous, and he is a trustworthy person. And who of the women in Beijing does not envy Jiang Xiaoyu's luck to be able to meet such a man, and if she were them, she was afraid that she would have withdrawn from her relatives long ago and completely wiped out the relationship.
Jiang Xiaoyu brought very simple things, and only brought Yan Yan and a maid, and walked lightly to the city gate and got on Zhao Ling's luxurious carriage. Zhao Ling is used to enjoying it, this carriage is worth a small living room, which has bookshelves, chessboards, fruits and vegetables, and aromatherapy.
"It's extravagant, you look like you're going to disaster relief, I think you're showing off!" After Jiang Xiaoyu got into the carriage, he looked around and said, "You're not afraid of stirring up a civil uprising!" β
"Even if you're going to help the disaster, you can't grieve yourself, can you?" Zhao Ling took the book from the bookshelf and said with a smile, "When you get to the disaster area, change to a more simple one, don't worry!" β
"Hypocrisy!" Jiang Xiaoyu glanced at him, scolding him and scolding himself, why didn't he enjoy this luxurious treatment? There is no shortage of upright people in this world, if you can always maintain your original intention in the face of pleasure, it is really admirable, in this regard, whether she or Zhao Ling, they are just mediocre people.
The convoy walked for most of the day, just at night, I stayed in an inn, I thought it was to calculate the time to set off, after a simple dinner, I asked for a few rooms, ready to rest, and set off again tomorrow morning.
Yanyan made the bed and said, "After a day of running, Miss should go to bed early!" β
"Yanyan, come here, I have something to tell you!" Jiang Xiaoyu called Yan Yan to her side and said a few words to her, Yan Yan listened, her little face wrinkled, she thought about it and said, "But the slave maid will go with the same young lady!" β
"You can't help me if you go, but stay with the world, so as not to make people suspicious, this is the task I gave you, I must ensure that it is completed, you have to be the same as when I am there!"
"Alright then!" Yan Yan pouted and said reluctantly, "Slave listen to Miss!" β
"That's good!" Pinched Yanyan's face, Jiang Xiaoyu found a simple men's clothes to change into, and took Zhao Ling's shop next door.
As soon as Zhao Ling saw her outfit, he probably already knew what she wanted to do, and sighed helplessly: "You still chose to take this step!" β
"I'm the right person in every way, and I don't have to go this way to rest assured!" Jiang Xiaoyu said.
"You had this plan in the morning?" Zhao Ling smiled self-deprecatingly, "I only thought I wanted to take you out of the land of right and wrong temporarily, and I missed your persistent temperament, I originally planned to protect your safety, but now I pushed you into danger!" β
"I really wanted to go to the northwest from the beginning, but my identity is not good to go out of Beijing, let alone go to the northwest, you gave me this opportunity!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "But you can rest assured, I will protect myself!" And with your ability, it shouldn't be difficult to create the illusion that I'm by your side, right? β
"Now that you've made up your mind, can I have any other way than to cooperate with you?"
