Chapter 14 A Letter of Resignation

Yu Youwei finally forced herself to eat some food at night, and she knew that she couldn't be so thin anymore.

Even though she hadn't looked in the mirror since she was sick, she could guess how much she looked like from the eyes of the maids.

She used to touch her face with her hands, although she was thin, she still vaguely felt a little fleshy. But now that she stroked it again, she only felt a little awkward, as if she had lost so much that she couldn't even feel a bit of flesh.

She lay face in on the bed, and when the master left, she swore that she would take care of herself, and it had only been a few days since she withered. She didn't know how long she would be able to survive like this, and she didn't know if she still had the point of being here.

She was tired, she couldn't fight Pei's, and she didn't have the body and spirit to fight her.

Just as she was thinking, she suddenly felt a person standing behind her. She didn't look back, because she knew who was standing. The smell of the sachet that the man himself gave him had betrayed him.

Yu Youwei didn't dare to look back at him, she was afraid that he would see her like a withered body. When did she care so much about skins, she looked down and smiled to herself

"I know you didn't sleep."

The warm voice came into Yu Youwei's ears, her whole body trembled, and bean-sized tears fell from her eyes.

Even so, she didn't look back.

Li Yi didn't care, and continued: "I came to tell you something. ”

Yu Youwei vaguely knew what he was going to say, and she hoped that she was just thinking too much. She didn't respond, closed her eyes and waited for Li Yi's next words.

Li Yi looked at her emaciated back, and a trace of distress flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by indifference, as if it had never appeared.

"Youwei, no matter how much the Pei family messes around, because of my promise in front of my father, I can't let me divorce her like this."

Speaking of this, Li Yi paused.

"I know that you have been wronged too much since Pei came to Chang'an. However, I have just entered Chang'an, and my position is unstable, and the Pei family's power is all over Chang'an. With our current strength, we really can't fight with that Pei clan. ”

Yu Youwei listened to his words, and knew his difficulties in her heart, but now she has no energy to spend it like this.

Li Yi seemed to know what she was thinking, and said: "I know that with Pei's character, I won't stop there, and I can't always stay by your side to protect you." But your bones can't be hurt in the slightest. ”

Yu Youwei listened to him quietly, and finally spoke: "What do you want me to do?" ”

"There is a Taoist temple on the Qujiang River, called Xianyiguan. The scenery is beautiful and the environment is elegant and quiet, which is good for your recuperation. I have paid for the repairs and sent for everything to be settled there. If you go there, I'll be at ease. ”

Yu Youwei finally turned around, used all her strength to get up slowly, looked at Li Yi who was standing in front of her bed with a slightly haggard face, and asked word by word: "What about the book?" ”

Li Yi listened to her words, his whole body trembled, and the hand in his sleeve couldn't help but grasp the paper in his hand.

Seeing that he was silent, Yu Youwei lowered her head and smiled softly, and asked again, "Don't you plan to give me the letter of resignation?" ”

Li Yi frowned and lifted the book of resignation in his hand, while he squatted down and sat in front of the bed, looking at Yu Youwei levelly.

"Youwei, I really can't help it. For the sake of our future, I can only do this. ”

Yu Youwei raised her weak hand and took the paper. The words on the paper and the book made her pupils tremble. She slowly closed her eyes, and her bloodless face became even paler. It turned out that all this was true, and the whispers of the handmaidens in front of their windows turned out to be true.

"Li Yi!"

She opened her eyes as she shouted his name. The fog blindfolded her eyes, making it impossible for her to see the faces of the people in front of her. No one answered her call, only a heartache.

Weakened by the weakness of her body, she bent down and curled her whole body, holding the piece of paper tightly to her chest in her hand, as if she was going to rub it into her body, mix it in her blood, and shatter it into her bones. Tears finally fell from her eyes, and her body trembled, shouting his name over and over again.

"Li Yi! Li Yi! Li Yi ··········"

The voice grew weaker and weaker over and over again, until at last there was only a shallow sob.

How could Li Yi not flash a trace of distress in his heart when he saw this scene, how could he have seen her so weak. That call made him stunned in place, and there was a heart-rending pain in his heart.

She is his wife, and they once married in this home here, with heaven and earth as a witness, and mountains and rivers as an oath. Those sweet memories appeared in his mind one by one, and his chest was breathless.

But it was such a woman who betrayed herself, betrayed her oath, betrayed these memories. What she has done, how should he forgive, and how can he forgive?

He hated her, so hated that he wanted to take her life and then follow her away. Before he did it, he relented his damn heart, but because of the shaking of his hands, a little arsenic still fell into the soup. Unexpectedly, it was because of this little arsenic that they would kill their children.

Countless midnight dreams, the child wept in his dreams, asking him why he didn't let himself come into the world. He felt like his hands were bloody, and even now, he couldn't accept that fact. He couldn't tell Yu Youwei this fact, he was afraid that she would not be able to withstand the blow, so he followed the child away from him.

He found that he loved her more than he imagined, and a little crying and a little grievance from her could break her liver and intestines, and her heart was like a knife.

"Vicky."

Yu Youwei heard him call her name softly, and her warm voice was as warm as when they first met. She looked up and stared into his eyes, seeing her haggard self in his eyes. She put her hand on his face, slowly closed her eyes, and stroked it from her eyebrows to her mouth over and over again, until she made his eyebrows! It's all carved into the bottom of her heart.

She put down her hand, bowed her head and pondered for a long time, and said, "I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you!" ”

Li Yi never thought that Yu Youwei would say this, and his hanging hand trembled uncontrollably.

He was now beginning to wonder if the knot in his heart was real. He felt her movements, listened to her words, and wanted to speak several times, but in the end he still didn't ask.

The night was so long, Yu Youwei and Li Yi lay side by side on the bed.

Yu Youwei listened to the breathing of the people around her, and felt that everything was just like when she first got married.

But there's no going back!
