Chapter 98: leave
After a brief explanation, Eunuch Zhu led a group of little eunuchs out of the bamboo flute residence.
Seeing Eunuch Zhu's figure disappear behind the gate, Wen Chi gradually recovered, he lowered his head, and his slightly stunned gaze fell on the envelope in his hand.
Then, he opened the envelope and scanned the contents roughly.
Nowadays Wen Chi has read a lot of scriptures, and it is not as difficult as before to read this letter at this time. Even though there are many uncommon words on it, he still reads it at a glance.
The content of the letter, like its title, is nothing more than a simple letter of divorce.
Ruofang ran to close the door, turned around and saw Wen Chi froze in place, she pulled Ruotao together to drive away the eunuchs and palace maids who looked curiously here open.
Finally, the two little girls gathered around Wen Chi.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" Ruofang stuck her head, "What is this?"
Wen Chi not only did not rush to put away the letter, but took out the envelope under the letter and handed it to Ruofang.
Ruofang opened her eyes and frowned, stared at the two large characters on the envelope and looked at it for a long time, then she became discouraged and said sadly and aggrieved: "Sir, this servant is not Literacy…”
"The letter of cessation." Ruo Tao said, "This is the letter of cessation."
Getting this answer, Ruofang was stunned for a moment, and she was in an unbelievable state after reacting. She looked at the two big characters on the envelope in a panic, and then read it again. Looking at Wen Chi: "What, what's going on? How can this be a book break?"
"This is the letter of divorce." Although Ruotao was not as complacent as Ruofang, her frown still revealed her mood at this moment, she said solemnly, " This is the divorce letter written by His Royal Highness, I didn’t expect His Highness…”
Speaking of this, she choked up obviously, and she couldn't say anything more.
"Impossible, it's impossible! His Royal Highness likes him so much, why would he write a letter of divorce for him?" Tears welled up in her eyes, and she grabbed Ruotao's arm like she was holding a life-saving straw, "Ruotao, hurry up and take a closer look. Could it be that you are wrong?"
Ruo Tao was shaken by Ruofang, she looked at Ruofang silently: "I can't read it wrong, this letter of divorce is a note from His Royal Highness."
Ruofang still didn't believe it, and said anxiously: "But, but we haven't even seen the face of His Royal Highness a few times, how do you know that this divorce letter is a note from His Royal Highness ."
After Ruofang said this, Ruotao was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that she had just accidentally said something, she was always calm, but at this moment, she could not hide the panic in her eyes, He quickly raised his eyes to look at Wen Chi.
Wen Chi was looking at her for a moment, his expression was calm, and there was an obvious look in his seemingly indifferent eyes.
Ruotao's face was pale: "Master, slave..."
Wen Chi saw that Ruotao had been brewing for a long time, but still could not utter a word, so he stopped the topic: "Eunuch Zhu said that I can leave the palace at any time, but I will trouble you to go to Eunuch Zhu later. Go through the process."
Ruofang was completely stunned, her face wet with unstoppable tears, she muttered: "Master, why don't you go to Eunuch Zhu to find out, maybe there is some misunderstanding in this. ."
"No need." Wen Chi shook his head, "You guys go and pack for us first."
Ruofang wanted to persuade her, but seeing Wen Chi's firm attitude, there was no room for recovery, she hesitated for a moment, and had to walk away dejectedly.
As soon as Ruofang left, Ruotao was the only one left.
In fact, Wen Chi had more or less guessed that Ruotao might be someone by Shi Ye’s side, but Ruotao is a low-key person, and doesn’t like to toss around like Ping An, and has never done anything bad When the matter came, it was left to Ruo Tao.
I didn't expect Ruotao to be really the person beside Shi Ye...
Wen Chi said to Ruotao, "You go too, I want to leave early."
Ruo Tao's face was a little ugly, but he hesitated: "Young master..."
Wen Chi did not speak, and concentrated on waiting for Ruo Tao's next words.
After a while, Ruotao finally managed to hold back a sentence: "Anyway, I hope you will take care of you."
Wen Chi smiled: "I will, you all take care."
Do some work.
As a last resort, Wen Chi had to ask the **** in charge of the palace to contact him who could transport these gifts out of the palace.
Rewards are shipped out.
In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.
On the day of parting, Ruofang and the other eunuchs and maids of Bamboo Flute Curie cried to tears, only Ruotao stood silently at the edge.
"Thousands of mistakes are all the fault of the slaves. It's all the slaves' crows' mouths. It's all the slaves' words." Ruofang wiped her tears with a handkerchief and was still talking about that day. As soon as Eunuch Zhu sent the divorce letter to Zhudiju, he blamed himself, "I knew that the servant's words were so clever, and the servant would have said something else."
Wen Chi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He comforted Ruofang for a long time, but it didn't work, so he let Ruofang cry, maybe she would feel better after crying.
Wen Chi distributed the silver that had been prepared a long time ago to everyone, and then told Ruofang and Ruotao to take care of themselves in this palace. The **** went out.
Seeing that the gate of Bamboo Flute Residence was getting closer and closer, at this moment, Wen Chi suddenly had an unreal feeling.
As if in a dream.
When he stepped into the East Palace three years ago, he never thought that he would be able to leave here alive one day, nor that he and Shi Ye could be completely separated, no matter what the final outcome was, since he chose After this road, you can only bite the bullet and go down.
Thinking of this, Wen Chi couldn't help but speed up.
He's free!
He's leaving!
He finally, finally escaped the fetters between him and Shi Ye. From now on, he will walk on his Yangguan Road, and Shi Ye will walk on Shiye's single-plank bridge.
Wen Chi took a deep breath and stepped out of the door—
Ruo Fang and Ruo Tao stood in the front courtyard, watching Wen Chi suddenly freeze in front of the gate with a group of eunuchs and palace maids, and then did not move forward again.
The little **** walking in front quickly noticed the difference, turned around, put his hands in his hands, and asked cautiously, "Mr. Wen, what else do you have to do?"
Wen Chi didn't seem to hear the little eunuch's voice, and continued to shovel in place.
Ruofang slowly stopped crying, turned her head and looked at Ruotao, she quickly wiped the tears on her face, and hurried forward: "Master, what's the matter with you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Wen Chi turn around suddenly, took a few steps in hastily, and then hurriedly walked towards the gate. Fixed in front of the door.
Tried it a few times and it worked.
Wen Chi became more and more restless, and Ruofang became more and more inexplicable, so she dared to ask again: "Master, what's the matter with you?"
Wen Chi's empty eyes fell on Ruofang, his thin lips moved, and he said in despair, "It's over, Ruofang, I can't leave."
In the study.
Several officials stood in front of the desk tremblingly.
Eunuch Zhu was holding the Buddha dust and quietly guarding the right back of the prince. He quietly raised his eyes to look at the prince, only to see the prince holding his chin expressionlessly as usual, his eyes seemed to fall On the letters spread out on the desk, but my thoughts drifted to somewhere.
Eunuch Zhu has been with the prince for many years, so he naturally understands the temperament of the prince, and it is estimated that he is thinking about the bamboo flute now...
I don't know what happened to the prince two years ago. His temper is getting worse day by day, even more uncertain than three years ago. Touched the prince's inverse scales.
Obviously, the recent behavior of the officials in front of the case made the Crown Prince unhappy.
Gonggong Zhu did not show his face, but he was already mourning for those officials in his heart.
After thinking about it for a while, the prince came back to his senses, and the cold voice was like a cold spring: "Get out."
After hearing this, several officials breathed a sigh of relief, and scrambled to retreat.
Eunuch Zhu also lowered his eyelids and held back.
At this time, the prince suddenly shouted: "Zhu Xian."
Eunuch Zhu hurriedly walked over: "The servant is here."
The prince asked: "Is he gone?"
Eunuch Zhu replied cautiously, "This morning the servant arranged to send Young Master Wen out of the palace. The man hasn't come back yet, so he should still be on his way to send Young Master Wen out of the palace."
The prince was silent for a long time before he said to himself: "It's okay."
After a pause, he said to Eunuch Zhu, "You all go out, don't bother me without my permission."
"Yes."
Zhu Gonggong knew that the prince was in a bad mood, so he hurriedly led the others who were serving in the study and left.
Shi Ye was the only one left in the huge study, so quiet that you could hear the sound of the air moving, and it was empty and a little lonely.
Shi Ye has always maintained the same posture, like a rock, motionless.
He has a lot of things. Letters and brochures fill the entire desk. Since the emperor fell ill, almost half of the affairs have been on him.
But right now, he doesn't have the heart to deal with those things.
Shi Ye stayed in the study for a whole day, until the sun went down, the sky was getting dark, and the broken stars gradually occupied the dark night sky. Eunuch Zhu personally brought dinner from the kitchen, Lightly walked to the back of the arch in the study.
Unfortunately, his words were like the stones thrown into the lake, and they didn't make any waves.
Eunuch Zhu boldly said again: "His Royal Highness, the servant brought the meal over, is His Royal Highness eating in the study?"
Shi Ye still did not respond.
Eunuch Zhu hesitated for a while, thinking that it is the default temperament of the prince not to object, so he walked in with dinner, and saw that there was no one in front of the desk.
Eunuch Zhu put the dinner on the desk and searched suspiciously for a long time but couldn't find the prince, but found that the window of the study was wide open, and it was estimated that the prince flew out of this window again .
This is really…
Eunuch Zhu stood in front of the window, shook his head, and sighed again and again.
This prince is really getting more and more unruly, there are many taboos in the palace, and there are many places that should not go and can't go, but this prince thinks the palace as a market to come and go freely.
After countless experiments, Wen Chi finally determined that he could not leave Zhudiju.
Strictly speaking, as long as he holds the idea of leaving the East Palace, his feet seem to be rooted on the ground, no matter how hard he tries, he can't move a bit. With the idea of just going out for a walk, he can move freely again.
This reminded Wen Chi of the power that had controlled him twice.
He always thought that the power was the effect of gentle use of the system on him at the same time. Later, the stone that produced the system was taken away by General Lin, and that power should naturally disappear.
But now...
The power is still there!
Wen Chi was at a loss, and then fell into a state of self-isolation on the spot.
He lay on the bed for a day, and finally cleared up some thoughts in the chaos. He could feel that the only purpose of that power was to prevent him from separating from Shi Ye.
come over.
But after thinking about it, it feels wrong.
It fell into the hands of General Lin—from here on out, the plot line of the original novel was like a wild horse that ran away and could never be pulled back.
Exclude this possibility, and there is only one possibility left - that is, the gentle system is behind the trouble.
Wen Chi remembered that Wen Liang's wish in the original novel was that he did not want to marry Shi Ye, so the system replaced Wen Liang with the original owner. The point is fair enough.
Finally, Wen Chi fell into deep despair.
.
However, Wen Chi thought of General Lin's body full of tendons and a height of nearly two meters... He was counseled.
Never mind.
Just stay in this palace to eat and drink, it seems to be pretty good...
So Wen Chi persuaded himself, but after dinner, his disobedient legs drove him to the courtyard.
He looked up at the high wall surrounding the courtyard, and an idea suddenly occurred in his heart.
