Chapter 870 - 870 Farewell (5)
870 Farewell (5)
Everyone in the Shen family naturally had to follow.
Luo Tan did not go. She said that Shen Miao was unwilling to bring her to the Daliang Dynasty, so she was angry. She refused to go and see Shen Miao off at the city gate.
In the princess’s mansion in the capital, Princess Rong Xin was restless.
“Your Highness, the wedding procession is about to reach the city gate,” the person who came to report said.
Princess Rong Xin waved her hand in frustration and asked the servants to leave. She fell into a chair and bit her lip uneasily.
In that letter she wrote, she exposed Prince Rui’s identity. She sent the letter to Emperor Wen Hui. This was her responsibility as a princess of Ming Qi.
Since ancient times, it was always a difficult decision to make between one’s family and one’s country. Although Xie Jingxing and her had a deep relationship that was closer than mother and son, the country they were part of was different.
If Xie Jingxing died because of this, Princess Rong Xin would be sad. However, if she did nothing and let Xie Jingxing return to the Daliang Dynasty with this secret, Princess Rong Xin would regret it.
Therefore, at the last moment, she chose to cut off her ties with him.
Princess Rong Xin chose to use a letter to explain everything, but she did not go to see Emperor Wen Hui personally, as if she felt that this way, she would feel less bad.
However, why wasn’t Emperor Wen Hui doing anything yet?
At this moment, the wedding procession was about to reach the city gate. Next, Shen Miao had to get out of the bridal sedan and get into the carriage to leave the capital for the Daliang Dynasty with Xie Jingxing. Being passive at such a moment didn’t seem to be her brother’s style.
She was a little puzzled and uneasy, but Princess Rong Xin could not take the initiative to walk out of her house to see what was going on.
It was because she could not face Xie Jingxing, or rather she was too ashamed to face him.
“Go and find out what’s going on!” She called another subordinate over.
…
Princess Consort Rui’s sedan chair had already arrived at the city gate. Jingzhe and Gu Yu helped Shen Miao out of the sedan chair.
Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan instructed Shen Miao in detail, “The Daliang Dynasty is different from Ming Qi. When you get there, remember to take good care of yourself. Write back from time to time. If you feel aggrieved, you have to tell us.”
Shen Xin turned to say a few words to Xie Jingxing.
He instructed Xie Jingxing not to let Shen Miao be bullied in the Daliang Dynasty no matter what. Xie Jingxing nodded without hesitation.
Shen Qiu, on the other hand, threatened fiercely that if he saw Shen Miao lose weight or look haggard next time, he would definitely bring the Shen army to flatten Prince Rui’s mansion.
Prince Rui only snorted at this.
If not for Luo Xueyan stopping him, Shen Qiu would probably have fought with Xie Jingxing on the spot.
It was time. Shen Miao said a few more words to Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan. She was about to leave the capital, but there were still many things unsettled in Ming Qi. However, she would be too far away to do the things herself, so she could only remind her family.
