Chapter 345: Centrifugation
This was Wen Ru's unexpected reaction, but when she really saw it, she couldn't help but feel a throb in her heart, and she thought that she had already thought it through, but when Chu Hongze looked at her with such a surprised gaze, she still couldn't help but want to retreat, and couldn't help it......
Wen Ruyi's silence made Chu Hongze fall into deeper doubts and helplessness, and he raised his hand to hold Wen Ruyi's hand, as if he could hold the person in front of him.
But Wen Ruyi, who was also emotionally fluctuating in her heart, saw Chu Hongze's outstretched hand, and her subconscious reaction was to retreat, she didn't want the two of them to get tighter and tighter, so she chose to retreat.
Wen Ruyi just turned sideways slightly, such a small movement naturally became the last straw that crushed Chu Hongze, and his outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, and his fingertips shrank inward, as if he wanted to save something.
Wen Ruyi didn't notice this small action, she just lowered her eyes and face, and pressed all her emotions under this action.
shouldn't hesitate, it should have been made clear a long time ago, Wen Ruyi thought so, even if she understood, but she couldn't say anything.
There was no word between the two for a long time, Wen Ruyi lowered her head, and Chu Hongze was always looking at her, as long as she raised her head, she could crash into the affectionate eyes.
But after a long time, Wen Ruyi didn't raise his head to take a look.
Chu Hongze's breath in his heart went up and down, slamming into his chest, and his heart hurt when he touched it.
Eventually, he asked, "Why?" ”
Wen Ruyi sat up slightly straight, her eyes still not raised, and her face seemed to be wearing a mask, covering all her emotions tightly, making it impossible to see what she was thinking.
"It's so sloppy, I think we all need to think about it," she said. ”
Chu Hongze seemed to think of something, and hurriedly said: "Ruyi, if you feel that the time is too urgent and not cautious enough, I will personally supervise the work, and let the Ministry of Rites handle the post-sealing ceremony foolproof, I will not wronged you!" ”
Listening to such a hurried explanation, Wen Ruyi's heart felt as if she had been hit with a heavy hammer, and her ears suddenly buzzed, her lips moved, and she said weakly: "I...... I didn't mean that, let's cancel the ceremony after the seal, it's more important for you to ascend the throne, let it go first......"
Before she finished her words, Chu Hongze became angry for a moment, and interrupted her words in a low tone: "Okay, the ceremony can be put aside for now." ”
Hearing this, Wen Ruyi's shoulders relaxed, but before he could breathe, he heard Chu Hongze say: "But you have to give me a time, right?" Not in a month, but two months later, three months? I can wait for half a year or a year, I just need a definite time. ”
This helpless and compromised voice made Wen Ruyi's fingers stiff, and he didn't dare to take a breath, only feeling that his heart hurt badly.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Chu Hongze couldn't bear it, so he could only slowly slow down his tone and said, "Ruyi, tell me why?" Good no good? ”
Wen Ruyi only felt that her throat was itchy, she felt tired from the pressure of affection, she couldn't give a clear answer, she was actually very uncomfortable, but ......
She thought about it again and again, and finally said in a roundabout way: "Lord Wang, in fact, I don't care if I can be the queen at all, and we don't need such a tie between us, you know that I don't care about those things, besides, no one can say for sure what will happen in the future, and the post-sealing ceremony is really not necessary." ”
As if he had heard a big joke, Chu Hongze took a breath, his eyes became deeper and deeper, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What do you mean?" ”
Wen Ruyi opened her mouth, feeling that she couldn't explain what she said, if she directly said that she would leave here one day, with Chu Hongze's temperament, I am afraid that she must break the sand pot and ask in the end, besides, she vaguely felt that Chu Hongze should know something......
Pain and annoyance flashed on Chu Hongze's face, and the two collided together, and finally became disappointed: "What do you mean by not caring?" What does it mean that there is no need? You ......"
He didn't continue with the rest of the sentence, but asked, "If you don't want to be my queen, then who do you want to marry?" ”
An incredible thought slipped through Chu Hongze's mind, but he was able to explain why Wen Ruyi was so abnormal, Wen Ruyi was so reluctant to enter the palace, and even a little disgusted, unwilling to be with him, is it because of ...... Is she in love with someone else?
Such an idea may be a bit ridiculous, but it is the most likely answer at the moment, otherwise how could Wen Ruyi reject him?
Some things are difficult to suppress when they start, not to mention that there is no such precedent, didn't Wen Ruyi just want to marry Mu Zirong?
Chu Hongze was tormented by such speculation, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high, and this was the truth.
Wen Ruyi, who didn't notice this, thought that Chu Hongze was just talking angry, so he wanted to appease him for the time being, hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Wang, you should also go back to the palace, right?" Now that you are about to ascend the throne, you have to personally check many things, and there are still so many things waiting for you to deal with in the court, so you better go back first. ”
Chu Hongze was already angry enough, and when he heard this, he was even more angry: "You drive me away? ”
Wen Ruyi was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect him to think like this, she was just afraid of delaying his business, why did she turn into driving him away?
When he was thinking about it, Chu Hongze's breath in his heart became more and more uncomfortable, and he stood up and said with a gloomy face: "I see that you have been too upset recently, you can rest in this mansion, don't think nonsense." ”
After saying this, Chu Hongze left.
Wen Ruyi couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at Chu Hongze's back as he left without any hesitation, thinking: Is he going to put me under house arrest?
With such thoughts, Wen Ruyi was suddenly shocked and angry in her heart, she hadn't said that she would leave in the future, Chu Hongze was already going to put her under house arrest, if he really knew, what would be the consequences?
No matter how long she stayed in ancient times, she was always a free-thinking modern person in her bones, and she couldn't accept Chu Hongze's approach at all.
If the Tao is different, they don't conspire with each other, and Wen Ruyi's idea of leaving has become stronger.
After a while, the original little girl walked in lightly, thinking about the ugly face of the new emperor when he left, so she asked worriedly: "Madam, you and Your Majesty...... What's wrong with the prince? ”
Wen Ruyi was also angry now, and when she heard this, she glared at the little girl, got up and entered the inner room.
The little girl looked at Wen Ruyi's back blankly, not knowing what to do.
And Chu Hongze, who was sad and angry, returned to the palace angrily, and did not let the chamberlain follow, and went to the Feng Palace that he specially rebuilt, and the decorations and furnishings in it were carefully selected by him according to Wen Ruyi's preferences, he thought that Wen Ruyi would definitely like it very much, but ......
When he came to this palace, Chu Hongze thought that he would be even more angry, but inexplicably, the anger in his heart suddenly dissipated, leaving only unspeakable loneliness.
Chu Hongze's hand brushed the ethereal curtain, and his eyes swept aimlessly in private, and everywhere he looked was familiar furnishings.
When will this empty palace wait for its owner? How lonely it would be if he lived alone in this huge palace.
In his imagination, this should be the belonging of him and Wen Ruyi, if he is the only one, it will not be considered a destination, he doesn't know the real reason why Wen Ruyi rejected him, he only knows that it is absolutely impossible for him to let her go.
The palace people all bowed their heads and waited respectfully, quietly looking at the new emperor standing alone in the palace with their eyes, everyone thought that the new emperor was just here to take a look at random, but they didn't think that this stop was half an hour, and they didn't know what the new emperor meant.
The palace people immediately looked at each other, exchanged glances with their backs to the new emperor, everyone was equally puzzled, and finally their eyes converged on a slightly older palace maid led by them.
When the palace maid received the news in everyone's eyes, her expression stiffened for a moment, then she took a deep breath, raised her feet and asked, "Your Majesty, what else do you have to order?" ”
Outside the palace, they are still worried that Chu Hongze has not officially ascended the throne, and many people still call him King Rui on the surface, but the people in the palace have long put the word "Your Majesty" on their lips.
Chu Hongze's eyes didn't look at her, and his expression was still bleak: "Okay, all of you go down, there is no need to wait here." ”
The palace people couldn't help but be stunned, and they didn't quite understand why Chu Hongze did this, but they were all people who had been in the palace for more than ten years, and they still knew how to advance and retreat, and they bowed obediently, and said respectfully: "Yes." ”
The others did not dare to delay, they all exited the palace one after another, and the young and bold little palace maid looked back at the moment when she stepped out of the threshold, and saw that the new emperor raised her head slightly, I don't know where she was looking, but it was just that one back, but it made people feel lonely for no reason.
Before the little palace maid had time to take a closer look, the big palace maid in front of her grabbed her ears and scolded her in a low voice: "Don't go quickly!" ”
After the palace people retreated, Chu Hongze walked towards the main seat of the palace and sat down hesitantly.
The empty palace was cold and unconcealable at this time, and at this moment, Chu Hongze suddenly felt that this palace carefully arranged for Wen Ruyi did not seem to be so good.
Recalling Wen Ruyi's carefree and casual appearance before, Chu Hongze's heart seemed to be poked by something, sour and sour, bubbling, Ruyi should not like the oppressive and closed environment in the palace, right? She loves freedom so much, like an unrestrained wind, and suddenly she is locked in the palace, she shouldn't feel good, right?
