The Great Queen Mau Lewat
Chapter 359 Side story (A Feng story)
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
The letter that Sima Fei sent to the capital had already gotten a reply along with the arrival of the elite bodyguards that Sima Rui had sent to escort them.
Actually, Liu Ru was still unsure about this trip. Apart from his very young gestational age, he had not said about his departure to Sima Feng, especially about his pregnancy.
For Liu Ru, even though their current relationship was not fine. But as a wife, she still needs the permission of her husband when she wants to leave.
Instantly he was in a dilemma.
" A Fei, are we not putting it off until your brother returns? I haven't spoken to him about our departure. " Said Liu Ru showing her hesitation.
" Sister-in-law, you take it easy. As for our departure, I've sent him a letter. I am sure he has read the letter by now. He was just too busy rooting out the rest of the wei state rebels, so it would be very difficult for him to return now. "
Liu Ru looked pondering for a moment then nodded in agreement. " all right. We'll leave after this. "
He recalled, at the beginning of their marriage, Sima Feng gave Liu Ru the choice of whether to follow him to stay here or not. Because it's a choice, isn't it okay if he decides to return to the capital.
Originally Liu Ru chose to follow Sima Feng to the border hoping to find some calm here. Who would have expected there to be Gu Feifei, making the calm Liu Ru had just enjoyed should come to an end. Not long ago the woman lived in the prince's residence, but it had caused a lot of trouble and the biggest was when she was accused of poisoning the woman.
That's enough. Liu Ru doesn't want to see another drama. He had seen quite often the drama at Liu's residence. It was better that he relented and returned to the capital than that his mind and mental health were affected.
Their sudden departure naturally shocked butler Hu. After all he was in charge of the prince's residence during Sima Feng's departure.
" Wangfei, shouldn't you wait for His Majesty to return. I'm afraid the prince will be mad at you if he finds out you left without his knowledge. " Hu's butler's suggestion was more to prevent Liu Ru's departure.
Liu Ru who was looking at her servants packing her belongings put aside the attention for a moment to look at butler Hu.
" Servant Hu you calm down. His Majesty already knows. "
" really? " It was obvious that there was a look of disbelief on the face of butler Hu.
" absolutely. Does my face look like a swindler. "
Butler Hu was at a loss for words.
" all right. If Your Majesty has known of your departure. I can only hope that your journey will be smooth and arrive in the capital safely. I look forward to your return to this residence soon. "
There was a slight feeling when he heard the old man speak. Although he was always firm when it came to work. But to Liu Ru, he was like a father figure who always helped him especially at the beginning of his arrival.
Gu Feifei who heard that Liu Ru was going back to the capital, was naturally very happy. Especially with two other troublemakers, Sima Fei and Sima Yi. Without them here, it would be very easy for him to approach Sima Feng.
Thinking of this made her lips curl a smile. She was certain that soon, she would become one of the women in the harem of the second prince of the Jin Empire.
" Miss. Isn't this a good time to get rid of it. We can make it look like something happened to that woman on the way and make it look like an accident. "
Gu Feifei looked at his servant who had just given a crazy idea. Eliminating Liu Ru was certainly his greatest wish. She was a barrier to her becoming princess consort.
He glanced at his servant, the servant Sima Feng whom he had bribed to be on his side. Even so he still could not trust her completely. According to him, once someone betrays, there will be another betrayal. Not to rule out the possibility, his servant would betray him someday.
" no. There was Sima Fei and Sima Yi with him. Too many victims will only attract too much attention. Better just forget it. At least that woman had already left this residence. In the future, I have more opportunities to make my relationship with the prince closer. " Remember Gu Feifei. Even so behind his servant, he secretly planned another plan. A plan that would make Liu Ru completely go away for good from Sima Fengs life.
After all the preparations were finished, Liu Ru and the others prepared to leave the prince's residence. A moment before Liu Ru entered the horse carriage, she once again looked back at the residence that had almost been her residence for almost a year.
' I will miss this place very much. ' His inner. There was a slight feeling of unwillingness when it came to leaving that place.
Not wanting to get even sadder, Liu Ru immediately stepped inside the gate. Butler Hu and a few servants accompanied their departure. Gu Feifei was no exception, who looked as if he was unwilling. But Liu Ru was sure in her heart that she was partying to celebrate her departure.
Liu Ru opened the curtain slightly as their carriage passed through the center of the city.
" Sister-in-law, have you never attended a banquet at a noble house? " Tanya Sima Fei suddenly.
" Why are you asking that? "
" That's because during my stay here I didn't see you visiting a banquet or just getting an invitation from a local noble residence. "
" You think? "
Sima Fei covered her own mouth with a surprised expression. " Could it be that you're in bully sister-in-law? "
Stupefied. Liu Ru was truly at a loss for words. He also said." Your imagination is truly extraordinary. " Liu Ru gave her thumb to Sima Fei.
Then he continued with a chuckle. " It's not that I never came. I never came once. But then I chose to reject all the invitations that came, for me the meeting was very tiring. There are too many lies there. " Liu Ru remembers her first banquet at the border.
Although on the surface, the young mistresses and the local noble ladies looked respectful towards Liu Ru. But behind, they actually insulted and ridiculed her as a village woman who did not deserve to be with Sima Feng.
