Chapter 133 Separation
Chapter 133 Separation
Guan Zhen immediately pushed the wheelchair forward and asked, "Is the princess basking in the sun?"
Rong Heqing rested his elbows on the stone table, held his chin with both hands, and said with a smile: "Yes, the weather is good today, I took myself out to sunbathe, what are you doing-"
Guan Zhen lowered his head and glanced at Qin Yunxian, "It's the master who wants to come back."
Qin Yunxian nodded, glanced at Chu Suifeng, and said, "I will not be in the mansion for a long time. You take good care of the princess. I will leave Tang Yiming here, and you two will be responsible for patrolling the mansion."
"How long is a long time? Where are you going if you are not in the palace?"
Rong Heqing's smile faded slightly, and she looked at him with wide eyes.
Qin Yunxian then looked at her and whispered, "My father has just given me a new mission. I need to go to Licheng."
"Licheng?" Rong Heqing frowned. Licheng is in the south. Not only is it far away from Yundu, but the terrain is also very complicated and the local forces are even more intertwined.
"What does His Majesty ask you to do in Licheng?"
Qin Yunxian's eyes moved slightly, and after a moment of silence, he said truthfully: "Investigating the collusion between local officials and bandits. This matter is extremely secret. On the surface, I am going to West City to find a doctor. At that time, the troops will be divided into two groups, one heading west and one heading south. You must remember not to mention it to others."
"So suddenly?" Rong Heqing was still a little shocked. "When are you leaving?"
"immediately."
"Ah?" Rong Heqing stood up suddenly. "What happened over there? Why are you so anxious?"
"I don't know the details, but judging from the attitude of my father, it should be quite serious, but not to the point of being a matter of urgency, so don't worry." Qin Yunxian turned to Guan Zhen and said, "Go pack your luggage."
"Yes."
Guan Zhen was about to go, and Rong Heqing hurriedly said, "Let me do it."
Qin Yunxian was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
Guan Zhen said with great shrewdness: "Then I will ask someone to prepare the carriage and horses."
Rong Heqing pushed Qin Yunxian into the bedroom, and Chu Suifeng stood at the door and did not go in.
Suddenly returning to the house from the bright outside, Rong Heqing closed his eyes feeling a little uncomfortable, and his vision became dark.
It took her a while to recover. When she opened her eyes, she saw Qin Yunxian looking at her intently.
Rong Heqing's heart trembled when he was looked at, "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
Qin Yunxian shook his head and said softly, "I'm not too reassured."
"Are you worried about Jingwei?" Rong Heqing reacted sharply and comforted him, "Don't worry, there are so many elite guards in the palace, they dare not come. This is the prince's palace. What's the difference between causing trouble here and provoking the emperor's power?"
However, Qin Yunxian was not comforted. He whispered, "The Jingwei group will do anything to achieve their goals. Although they dare not act in the palace, they may do something else. When you go out, you must bring enough people with you. Don't be bothered. If you encounter any problems, remember to go to Ruyi Tower to find Manager Zhou. I have left a lot of people there."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Rong Heqing knew that he cared about her, so she agreed with a smile.
Qin Yunxian didn't move after he finished speaking, still looking at her, his eyes revealing something that Rong Heqing couldn't understand.
The two looked at each other in confusion and fell silent.
At a certain moment, Rong Heqing's heart suddenly became restless.
She wanted to say something to ease the tension, but Qin Yunxian suddenly stretched out his hand. She was stunned, but he had already grasped her wrist and used a little force to bring her into his arms.
Rong Heqing stumbled towards him and was immediately embraced.
He hugged me so tightly, as if he was reluctant to let go.
"Take care of yourself and wait for me to come back."
Rong Heqing felt that he was in a bad mood, but she didn't know why. She didn't resist and let him hold her, feeling the warmth from him.
After a long while, she patted his back gently and said softly, "You too, I'll wait for you to come back safely at home."
Qin Yunxian smiled.
Come back home.
The word was so strange to him.
When he was young, someone told him that the palace was his home. Later, when he grew up, someone told him that the military camp was his home.
Later, he had his own palace, and people thought the palace was his home.
But he never took these seriously.
To him, home is both empty and sacred. A place with family and love can be called home.
When Rong Heqing told him to go home, he suddenly felt it was real.
He was like the petals floating in the wind that night, finally falling into her palm.
After hugging enough, Rong Heqing let go of her hands first, "Okay, I'll go pack your clothes."
The weather in the south was hot, so she picked out a lot of thin shirts and packed a few thicker clothes so that she could get by in case the weather changed.
After thinking about it, she asked someone to prepare some banknotes and small change, and packed them in different categories for Qin Yunxian to take with him.
Qin Yunxian watched her running around for him, and his heart was filled with joy.
However, everything has an end, and soon all the things were packed, and Rong Heqing sent Qin Yunxian out.
Rong Heqing stood beside the carriage and watched Qin Yunxian get on. Before leaving, he looked back at her, said nothing, just smiled.
The moment the curtain was lowered, Rong Heqing felt a sense of loss.
They had just separated after getting married, and there was no time for them to get to know each other better.
But it’s better this way. She’s feeling very confused right now and really needs some time alone to calm down and sort things out.
Maybe when they meet again, they will give each other a new answer.
She suddenly took a step forward, and with an impulse that came from nowhere, she called out, "Qin Yunxian—"
The carriage stopped, the curtain was opened, and Qin Yunxian's face appeared by the window.
His eyes trembled slightly as he looked at Rong Heqing across the bright spring light.
Rong Heqing moved his lips, smiled suddenly, and said softly: "People say that people with messy palm lines are thoughtful and cunning."
Qin Yunxian didn't expect her to say this. He was stunned for a moment and asked, "Then do you think I'm cunning?"
Rong Heqing shook her head, her eyes soft, and she said: "I want to say that you don't have to think about everything. Thinking too much is too tiring. You can try to live a simpler life in the future."
Qin Yunxian's heart was trembling, and he was speechless for a long time.
"Okay, let's go."
Rong Heqing waved to Guan Zhen who was driving.
Guan Zhen nodded, "Take care, Princess."
"drive--"
He raised his whip, and the long convoy slowly left, all the way to the end of the long street. When there was no one left, Rong Heqing sighed, "Let's go back too."
Chu Suifeng nodded silently.
However, when turning around, Rong Heqing suddenly noticed something and turned his head to take a look.
But saw nothing.
Chu Suifeng was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Rong Heqing asked: "Do you feel that someone is watching us?"
Chu Suifeng narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, glanced around cautiously, shook his head for a long while, and said firmly: "No."
"That might be my illusion."
Rong Heqing didn't think about it any more, "Let's go, go back and think about what to eat for lunch, I'm a little hungry."
"You're already thinking about what to eat right after they left?" Chu Suifeng was surprised, "Shouldn't you be unable to eat?"
