In the evening, when she was lighting, Xia Li was resting on the stool in the courtyard. Her things had been packed up. As long as the wound on her head was healed, she could leave. But after waiting for dinner for a long time, she didn't bring it. She was hungry, and could not help but be worried. She kept looking at the door.
”Sister Li, this is a radish and two steamed buns sent by the princess.” Rushuang went into the yard with a sad face.
”Why?” A few days ago, Xia Li always had a girl who sent delicious food regularly. Now she was stunned for a moment when she saw this situation. But when she thought of Wang Leyi's disgust for her yesterday, she asked softly.
”Does that mean I have to cook for myself?”
”Sister Li is a smart person. The princess said that since Xia Li is not a person in the house, and she has nothing to do with the Lord, she is just a girl rescued by the Lord. Then she should follow the rules of the house. She should take money for the food, clothes, water and paper she needs every day. She should sweep the yard and cook the food by herself. There is no one to serve her.”
Rushuang said truthfully.
”Gong liangche, do you know that?” Asked Xia Li with a glimmer of hope.
”Wang Ye said, Sister Li, if you don't want to endure these bullies, you can leave ahead of time, or you can stay here until the wound on your head is healed. He respects your decision.”
Rushuang said here, silent. Don't you like summer quinoa?
Xia Li's heart sank a little bit. After thinking for a while, she was relieved and said with a smile.
”I told him before that I would leave. Since he also agreed, I'll leave tomorrow and send all the radishes back. I'm just an outsider, so I won't spend any money on his family.”
With that, Xia Li stood up and went back to the room. With a bang, he closed the door. He leaned against the door and slid on the ground. Looking at the dark room, he felt lost.
This time, he is really going to let go, no longer make her, no longer retain her, and even do not say some nice words to make her happy. After all, they are suffering more than happy. They want to be together and live a life of plain life. Now it seems that they are also extravagant. He has his position and responsibility, and she also has her own goals and plans. They seem to have two equal paths Line, no longer intersection, respectively, toward their own direction of reverse extension.
Outside the door, Rusheng takes a radish and two steamed buns. After a while, Rusheng walks out of the door. Gong liangche stands outside the door, and Wang Leyi is also there.
”Mr. Wang, you asked me to be a villain. Before that, I was good for Xia Li.” Wang Leyi reminds Gong liangche.
”This time, it's the king's idea. Late at night, the princess will go back to rest early.”
Gong liangche said coldly.
”Yes, I'll step down.” Wang Leyi's body is slightly blessed, and she only feels uncomfortable in her heart. Why does he always treat her so coldly! From beginning to end, a back to him, looking at his back, she can only live like this all her life?
Wang Leyi waved her handkerchief and went out of the yard. She slapped the maid beside her in anger and left angrily.
Gongliangche stands in the yard, his eyes follow Xiali's room. It's dark in the room. Since she came back to the room, it hasn't been lit. He must be angry. After all, except for the first time, he hugged Wang Leyi and made her run to Shu. This time, he must be angry for a long time.
Gongliangche stayed at the door all night.
Just after daybreak, Xia Li came out of the room early, carrying a small burden on his shoulder and facing the sky.
”Come on, send me out of this palace.” Xia Li smiles a little. She is wearing a plain skirt today. When she has long hair, she uses a wooden hairpin to wrap it in a bun. She looks like a village woman.
Gong liangche was in a trance for a moment, as if he had taken him back to his time in Tianshui village.
He took the burden from her hand, carried it on his shoulder, and walked ahead in silence.
Seeing that the king of Qing came out of Xiali's yard, he ran to the door to prepare the carriage.
Gong liangche takes Xia Li to the back door of the palace.
Rushuang had been waiting beside the carriage and took over the burden from his hand.
”Li'er, you will be free in the future. I hope you can have a happy life in the future. Of course, this period of freedom is very short. When I finish my great work, I will come to take you back to me.” Gong liangche turns around and comes to Xia Li. He takes her by the hand and says to her.
”We've talked too much about each other, so we don't have to be so fussy to see each other off. Let's go for a while.”
Xiali got on the carriage, put down the curtain and didn't show up again.
Rushuang nods to gongliangche and drives his horse away from the palace of King Qing.
Wang Leyi has been hiding in a corner of the palace, some of whom are not sure about asking the maid around.
”This woman left in this way, the palace did not have time to make friends with him.”
The maid around him didn't answer, leaving Wang Leyi alone to talk to herself.The carriage left the capital half a year later and ran in the direction of Qingzhou.
Sitting in the carriage, Xia Li felt that the route was different from her imagination and began to ask Rushuang.
”Where are you taking me?”
”Listen to the Lord's order and send his wife back to Tianshui village.”
Rushuang said in a hurry, driving the carriage.
”I said I would stay in the capital. When you come back, don't you even listen to my orders?”
As if frost didn't hear it, she drove the carriage straight ahead. Xia Li was angry, lifted the curtain of the car, jumped up, and rolled down to one side of the grass with inertia.
Rushuang did not expect that she would jump down and stopped the carriage with a scream.
”What are you doing, ma'am?”
