love poison

Chapter 53

No matter how much Xin Mu resisted returning to the Duke of Yue's mansion, after he came back, his health improved day by day, and his face gradually became more colorful.Ronghua followed his promise and let Xin Mu and Zhizhen meet each other.

When he really arrived at Xin Mu's bedroom, he cried again when he saw Xin Mu.

Instead, Xin Mu smiled at him and said, "Don't cry, this may be fate."

Zhizhen said sobbingly: "I'm sorry for you, I couldn't take you away."

"It's already at this time, why are you still talking about these things? Play chess with me again. After you leave, I will really be alone." Xin Mu didn't frown at Zhizhen anymore, but took the chessboard out.

Just like when he played chess for the first time, Zhizhen still lost a mess in front of Xin Mu, but he was very happy, like two children, laughing and making trouble with each other, from early morning to dusk, all the time Did not stop.Until a servant came in to tell Zhizhen that the carriage to send him had arrived.

Zhizhen's eyes turned red, and she was about to cry again.

"Don't cry, you will no longer be attached to anyone, live your own life, be free and happy, and no one can restrain you anymore." Xin Mu hugged Zhizhen and whispered, "Didn't you tell me , when I leave here, I will write you a letter and post it in your hometown. No matter where you go, go back after a while to see if there is any letter from me. Come to me when you receive my letter. We can meet again, do you agree?"

Zhi Zhen said in surprise, "Are you still leaving?"

Xin Mu nodded and said: "I will not give up. I will take medicine, eat well, and keep healthy. I will leave whenever I have the chance. Even if people are imprisoned, I hope they will not be imprisoned. I must Go out, I'm going to find my second brother."

Zhizhen was dumbfounded and stared blankly at Xin Mu.

"What's wrong?" Xin Mu asked.

"Xin Mu, you...do you know..." Zhizhen hesitated, wanted to say but couldn't make up his mind, just as he was hesitating, there were footsteps outside.

Rong Hua has arrived.

Zhizhen immediately shut up, and finally decided not to speak.Xin Mu still has hope, but if he is really told that his second brother is married, he is afraid that his last hope will be ruined.

Zhizhen looked at Xin Mu with guilt, and bit his lips tightly.

After Ronghua came in, he didn't say much. After looking at Xin Mu for a few times, he signaled Zhizhen to leave with his eyes. Zhizhen stared at Xin Mu with red eyes, and walked out following Ronghua step by step.

Xin Mu stood there looking at him, her eyes turned red.

When approaching the door, Zhizhen finally couldn't help it, summoned up the courage to turn around, hugged Xin Mu, and cried loudly.

Xin Mu's eyes were also full of tears. He raised his hand and patted Zhenzhen's back, and said in a low voice, "Don't give up hope."

Zhizhen cried and nodded, then was pulled away by the gloomy Ronghua, and finally left.

Zhizhen thought in a daze, before meeting Xin Mu, he had lived all these years without relatives or friends, even though he always seemed to be kind to others, in fact he was indifferent and extremely selfish in his heart.He has never given and received anyone's sincerity until he met Xin Mu.He is willing to take risks for Xin Mu, willing to betray his master for Xin Mu, except to repay Xin Mu for saving his life, he somewhat likes Xin Mu, although the weight may not be too much, but for Zhizhen, This is all he has.

This time we parted, and I don't know if there will be a chance to meet again in the future.

Zhizhen couldn't help crying, until Ronghua took him to the back door of the Duke of Yue's mansion and stuffed it into a carriage, he still couldn't stop crying.

Ronghua looked at Zhizhen coldly, and threw him a brocade box. Zhizhen looked at the brocade box, stopped her tears a little, and stared blankly.

He would not fail to remember this brocade box, when he personally packed his deed of sale in it, and handed it to Ronghua respectfully.

Rong Hua said: "You can take all the things I gave you these years. I have exempted you from slavery, and you will be free from now on, but you can no longer set foot in Yuezhou. Your father saved me The Rong family, I saved you too, and now we are clear, we are no longer master and servant, so there is no need to say more, let's just say goodbye, don't see each other again."

Zhizhen was still in a daze, but the sound of horseshoes sounded, and he gradually moved away from the Duke of Yue's mansion.

In the future, he will no longer be someone's slave, and he will still be quite rich. He can even buy a dozen slaves to take good care of him.

He is already free, but this freedom makes him so at a loss, he doesn't know where to go.

After Zhizhen left, Xin Mu felt that the entire Yue State Mansion had become deserted, and he sat back in front of the chessboard numbly, staring at the chess pieces in a trance.

When Rong Hua came back, he saw Xin Mu who was staring at the chess board in a daze.

Ronghua sat in Zhizhen's seat, smiled flatteringly, and said, "How about I continue with you?"

Xin Mu didn't even look at him, she stood up and walked out the door.

Rong Hua hurriedly followed, and said, "Then let me go out for a walk with you. You haven't gone out for a long time. How about we go shopping in the street?"

Xin Mu withdrew her foot, didn't even want to leave the door, turned and went to the inner room.

Rong Hua looked at Xin Mu's back in disappointment, and finally sighed softly.

After Zhizhen left, Ronghua came to see Xin Mu every day, but Xin Mu never said a word to Ronghua.He spent a lot of time on chess records, playing chess with himself every day, completely immersed in his own world.

Sometimes Rong Hua wondered if Xin Mu was thinking about his second brother when he was playing chess with him.Jealousy makes Rong Hua's heart more and more twisted. He is often tortured by his own imagination so that he can't sleep at night, but he just can't stop these imaginations.

They are all so stubborn, no one is happy, but no one can compromise with the other, just tormenting each other like this.

Xin Mu didn't even go out of the gate of Hongyi Courtyard, the spring is over, and the early summer is here.

One day Xin Mu was reading a chess record in the house, when the maid who served him suddenly approached, and while wiping the decorations in the house, she pretended to be careless and said: "My lord, I heard that a person who is very good at chess came to Yuezhou recently." He said that there is no one in Yuezhou who is his opponent, and he set up a ring in the theater building on South Street, saying that he is looking for a master."

Xin Mu didn't reply immediately, the maid was a little anxious, and just when she was about to continue talking, Xin Mu said slowly, "Didn't Dr. Ying go? Dr. Ying is very good at chess."

The maid looked happy, and said: "The genius doctor Ying just went to Beicheng to treat someone in the past two days, but he didn't go. Why don't you go and see, young master, aren't you also very good at chess?"

Xin Mu thought, this is probably what Ronghua asked the maid to say to him. After all, these days, Ronghua has been trying to get him to go out, and Xin Mu has never paid attention to him.

But this time when the maid brought it up, Xin Mu suddenly wanted to go out.

He fantasized unrealistically that he might be able to sneak away when the crowd was chaotic and Ronghua was not paying attention. Although the possibility of success was very small, it was better than waiting so foolishly.

So he agreed, and said to the maid: "Okay, I'll go out and have a look this afternoon."

The maid hurriedly bowed, and happily went to Ronghua to receive her meritorious service.

After lunch, Rong Hua went to Hongyi Courtyard. He was as happy as a young boy in love, looked at Xin Mu and said with a smile: "Xin Mu, let's go. I've already taken care of the ring. That person competes, presumably that person is not your opponent at all, you will definitely win."

Xin Mu walked towards the carriage silently, Rong Hua walked quickly to the front of the carriage, raised his arm to serve as a handrail for Xin Mu, Xin Mu hurriedly dodged, and went up by himself while holding the door of the carriage.

Rong Hua's heart twitched again.

Xin Mu reminds Ronghua all the time how much he resists him, he doesn't love himself anymore.

Rong Hua clutched his heart and calmed down, and got into a carriage with Xin Mu in a stern manner. Xin Mu's expression changed, as if his next move was to push Rong Hua away from the carriage.

Rong Hua said cruelly: "Don't look at me like this again, I can't bear it. Whether you want it or not, I can't let you out of my sight. I'm afraid of you. If you sneak away again, I won't let you out of my sight." Know if I'm going crazy."

Xin Mu bit her lower lip, but in the end she didn't resist, she closed her eyes and said nothing.

Rong Hua kept staring at Xin Mu's face, even though he didn't look at himself, maybe Rong Hua could comfort him by looking at Xin Mu like this.

The carriage drove out of the gate of the Duke of Yue's mansion, and drove on the street for a stick of incense, the noise became louder, and it had already arrived under the theater building.

Before getting out of the car, Rong Hua took a bamboo hat and wanted to put it on Xin Mu to cover his face, but Xin Mu immediately took it and put it on by himself to avoid physical contact with Rong Hua.

After getting off the car, Rong Hua followed closely behind Xin Mu and watched.

The theater building was surrounded by teahouses, where many people gathered to drink tea and play dominoes. Xin Mu went up to the second floor, found a place with a good view and sat down, looking at the two people who were playing chess on the theater floor.

The person who opened the ring was a middle-aged man in his forties, who looked very ordinary, and the player who played against him was a young boy of thirteen or fourteen.

Xin Mu looked at it for a while, then felt boring.That middle-aged man made such a big commotion, in fact, his chess skills are not very good, and he is only one point better than Rong Hua Zhizhen.The lottery he bet is not high, and Yuezhou is a rough place, there are very few literati who like to play chess, so he has been allowed to compete here for the past few days without encountering any opponents.

Xin Mu stopped paying attention to the middle-aged man, and instead looked around randomly, wondering if there was a chance to escape.
