Chapter 525: And the hoof lotus opens
Listening to Chu Xingyue's such a determined figure, for some reason, Chun Xing believed it in her heart; I believe that her young lady will be able to do what she says.
Chu Xingyue drank all the bitter decoction that numb her tongue under Chunxing's service, you must know that before, she hated this kind of bitter soup the most, and every time she let her drink some medicine, it was like asking her to die.
But this time, she drank very happily, and even Chunxing was startled by her unhesitating movements; Only Chu Xingyue herself knows best that from now on, whether it is sweet or bitter, she can only rely on herself; Therefore, she can no longer be coquettish and squeamish like before, like a little flower in a greenhouse, living innocent, silly, and carefree.
After drinking the decoction, the strength of the medicine came up, and Chu Xingyue soon felt sleepy, but thinking of the next plan, Chu Xingyue still looked at Chunxing who was guarding her side with some worry.
She knew that as long as she spoke, Chunxing would go with her at the end of the world, but she couldn't be so selfish in deciding Chunxing's future; At the very least, she also has to give Chun Xing a chance to choose, no matter what decision she makes, she will support her unconditionally.
Thinking of this, Chu Xingyue held her sleepiness, grabbed Chunxing's hand on the side of the bed, and said, "Chunxing, I won't hide it from you, so many things have happened now, for myself, but also for the Jingbei Hou Mansion, I can't stay in the capital longer; Although you are my girl, you also know that I have never regarded you as a subordinate; Once we leave the Ling Wang's Mansion, our lives may change dramatically from now on, maybe we will live a life of displacement, maybe we may still be hungry and cold, without food and clothing, and maybe we will have to hide for a period of time, such a day is not something that ordinary people can bear; I will not force you, if you are willing to go with me, I will take you with me, because I promised you that I will not leave you rashly in the future; But if you want to stay, I don't blame you. Because everyone has the right to choose, your life should not be dependent on anyone, you are responsible for your own future. ”
Hearing Chu Xingyue say this, Chun Xing grabbed her hand tightly with tears in her eyes, sniffed and said, "Miss, the slave maid wants to follow Miss." ”
Chu Xingyue was not much surprised by Chunxing's answer, because she had already known Chunxing's character, didn't she? This child, although sometimes a little nagging, and some like to shake her wit, but she knows very well that in this world, Chunxing is a person who will never betray herself.
"Have you really decided? Follow me, and you may suffer. ”
"Slaves are not afraid." Tears fell from Chun Xing's eyes, grabbed Chu Xingyue's hand tightly, and said, "Miss, in fact, you said the wrong thing, since the moment the slave maid was sold into the Jingbei Hou Mansion and was assigned by the lady to serve you, this life of the slave and maid has been closely tied to you, Miss; The slave doesn't understand what the young lady says is responsible for independence, the slave only knows that the slave and the maid are young lady's people all her life, where the young lady goes, the slave and the maid will go with her, even if the young lady doesn't want to be a slave one day, even if the slave and the maid are crawling or rolling, they must follow behind the young lady and never give up. ”
Such stupid words immediately made Chu Xingyue's eyes red.
It seems that even if she encounters such a predicament today, God is still a little merciful to her, at least let her be accompanied by such a caring little girl when she is most lonely and helpless.
She's satisfied!
Seeing Chu Xingyue nodding and agreeing to herself, Chun Xing burst into tears, raised her hand to wipe the tears on her face, and said with a slightly hesitant expression: "Miss, you decided to leave, do you really not want to say a word to His Royal Highness the Prince?" His Highness has not yet returned, perhaps he has some kind of distress, and he does not really want to leave you alone to face the situation in front of him; Miss, should you give Your Highness a chance? ”
In the face of Chunxing's dissuasion, Chu Xingyue's face showed a sneer, "Actually, I should have known a long time ago that in Zhao Ling's heart, I certainly liked him, but once there was a conflict with his interests, I would make the person who was given up by him; It's just that before, I was carried away by love and felt that I should tolerate him and understand him; However, my tolerance and understanding are not based on his ability to harm my relatives and friends at will. ”
"Yuan Feng's death, he owes me an explanation, and he also owes me a life, I also wanted to ask him for clarification; But now I see how ridiculous my idea was. I saw him as my favorite husband, but I forgot that he had another identity; From the very beginning, I was right, and he and I seemed to be very close, but in fact we were thousands of miles away. He can't give what I want, but what he gives is what I don't like the most; Obviously the two most intimate people, I thought I would be able to grow old in vain, but I didn't expect that after experiencing the verification of reality, I could see clearly that I was in the same bed with him after all, and I had no fate. ”
Chun Xing was frightened by Chu Xingyue's words, and tears fell again: "Miss, the slave begs you not to say this, the slave believes and believes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not treat you so ruthlessly, the slave can see that His Royal Highness likes you so much, he really cares about you." ”
Silent tears slipped from Chu Xingyue's eyes, she chuckled lightly, and said, "Yes, even I know that he likes me; However, he was also the one who hurt me the most; Chunxing, can't you see it? In order to keep me by his side, he kept telling me lies, Yuan Feng's affairs are like that, and so is the affairs of my eldest brother. If I stay by his side any longer, I will not only hurt my eldest brother, but even my father will be dragged down by me. ”
Speaking of this, Chu Xingyue's eyes changed, and even his voice became colder: "The Jiang family has fallen, and now the thorn of the Jingbei Hou Mansion is left in the entire Great Wei world, and Emperor Showa has already hung the knife on our heads, if we do a little bit wrong, even the entire Jingbei Hou Mansion may be overturned; Isn't the townside palace of Nanchu the bloodiest example? Since ancient times, are there still a few emperors who have made the act of unloading the mill and killing donkeys? Do you really think that the Son of Heaven is a benevolent one? In order to take revenge, he can even hurt his own body, will such a man who will do anything to achieve his goals be a benevolent? No! Maybe he is a little benevolent, but that benevolence will definitely not be given to the Jingbei Hou Mansion. ”
Hearing Chu Xingyue say this, Chun Xing was completely dead.
If Miss was just a simple quarrel with His Royal Highness the Prince, maybe she could persuade her, but now even she could see that the rift between Miss and His Royal Highness was no longer purely emotional.
Emperor Showa wanted to attack the Marquis of Jingbei, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not stand up and say anything, no, perhaps His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already represented his answer with silence.
He stood on the side of Emperor Showa and acquiesced in what he was going to do to the Marquis of Jingbei; As the daughter of the Chu family, how could the young lady watch her father and brother embark on a road abandoned by her family and country; Therefore, the young lady looked down on all the glory and wealth in the capital, and wanted to take them back to Qingzhou.
It's just, what should they do when they return to Qingzhou? Isn't this a disguised clamore for the majestic imperial power?
Chun Xing came from the Hou Mansion, and he knew very well what kind of character the old Hou Ye was, he would never betray the Great Wei in his life, so Emperor Showa treated the young lady and the prince like this in the capital, if the old Hou Ye knew how sad he would be; However, throughout the ages, it is often the monarch who makes his ministers die and the ministers have to die, if Emperor Showa really has a jealous heart towards the Jingbei Marquis Mansion, and the young lady leaves the capital at this time, wouldn't it make the Emperor Showa, who originally wanted to be in the Jingbei Marquis Mansion, even more dislike and suspicion of the Marquis Mansion in his heart?
Chu Xingyue didn't need to guess much to know what Chun Xing was thinking at this time, she was really tired, so while her eyelids slowly drooped down, her voice became quieter and quieter: "I have always liked to take the initiative, and I disdain to be the one who is passively beaten; I know that if I leave the capital, I will give Emperor Showa an excuse to attack Qingzhou; But, even so, I'm leaving. Because, staying here can only be passively slaughtered, but if we leave successfully, we will not become fish on the chopping block of others, if Emperor Showa does anything to us again, we must also weigh what the consequences will be after he does this. ”
Speaking of this, Chu Xingyue opened her eyelids vigorously, looked at Chun Xing who was guarding beside her, and continued: "You help me pack some simple clothes and money, and when the hour arrives in the second half of the night tonight, someone will come and take us away; Chunxing, when I leave here, I don't want to come back. ”
Looking at the young lady who closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep after saying this, Chunxing covered her pounding heart and was shocked.
She thought that even if Miss made a decision, it would take some twists and turns for them to leave the capital, but she didn't expect that Miss had already arranged everything.
Only, in this case, who will take them away?
Although there were countless questions circling in her mind, Chun Xing still obeyed Chu Xingyue's explanation, quickly and simply packed some clothes, tied them into two cloth bags and hid them in the cabinet; Then he took out the money bag that he and the young lady had carried, filled it with silver, and carried a few silver tickets that could be used for emergencies; After Ma Li cleaned up everything, Chun Xing walked out of the wing room and quietly guarded the door of the room, but her thoughts were a little distant.
Since King Ling's Mansion was surrounded by the Imperial Forest Army, Yunxiao also disappeared.
Chun Xing didn't know where Yunxiao went, but vaguely, she felt that judging from Yunxiao's loyalty, she must be following His Royal Highness the Prince, if he really followed His Royal Highness, he must also know the situation of her and Miss in the palace; It's just that His Royal Highness doesn't come to see Miss, and even he doesn't want to come to see her?
Thinking of this, Chun Xing's mouth also had a hint of ridicule that was very similar to Chu Xingyue's, and secretly laughed at herself that she was really stupid, when the young lady wanted to point her to Yunxiao, although she didn't agree, she had quietly put him down in her heart.
even, silently cared about him; But what about him? Like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he can melt people when he is amorous, but he makes people feel cold when he is cold.
Chunxing laughed at her silly heart while taking out the sachet that had been carefully placed on her body; Looking at the sachet embroidered in her hand and opened by Tilian, Chun Xing forced herself to hold back the sourness in her eyes, and then, with a bite of her teeth, she threw the sachet away from afar.
This sachet was carefully embroidered by her for three days, and she wanted to give it to him, but now it seems that the two flowers that bloom just right are the most ironic existence, and the irony of her so simple surrender to her heart.
