Chapter 85: Leaving the Royal Capital
It was still dark and the room was still dark. Zou Heng, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.
Reaching out and gently rubbing his eyes, Zou Heng stood up slowly and looked outside. It was almost dawn.
Zou Heng didn't even light the lamp, so he got out of bed in a somewhat dim environment, put on his clothes, then went back to tidy up the bedding, fetched water for himself, washed himself, and then put all the tables and chairs in the room.
After placing them neatly, he opened the door and walked out.
"time to go!"
Standing at the door of the room and muttering to himself, Zou Heng raised his feet and walked outside. Everyone had practiced it for him yesterday. Today he wanted to leave officially. He didn't want to trouble others to see him off again. It was best to leave quietly.
Alright.
When you arrive at the door, leave a letter for the servant who opens the door and tell them so, that's all.
Zou Heng thought very well, but when he was about to reach the door, he saw Niwang sitting there on the steps near the door. Beside him, there were several wine bottles, including
Several of them are already empty, and it seems that he has been sitting here for a long time.
After a slight pause in his footsteps, Zou Heng leaned over again and came to Niwang's side, smelling the heavy smell of alcohol on his body.
At this time, King Ni also noticed Zou Heng's approach. His face was red from drinking, he smiled like a drunkard, and he spoke to Zou Heng with some unclear words.
"Master, you got up so early. By the way, you are leaving today. I am here to see you off!"
"Thank you for sending me off, Your Highness. Your Highness drank too much, so I'll take you back first!" Zou Heng looked at the drunk King Ren, sighed softly and said.
He originally wanted to leave quietly without disturbing others, but he didn't expect Nioh to be guarding here, and he might have been guarding for a long time, and he might even have stayed up all night.
"I don't want to drink too much. Isn't this wine intoxicating? I want to drink too much, but I'm still very sober. I'm still very sober!" King Ni heard Zou Heng's words and held the wine bottle in his hand to his ear.
He shook slightly, and then the smile on his face became very depressed, and his voice even sounded like crying.
"Master, I've been sitting here all night. It's been a long night. I'm so lonely and sad. I want to kill someone, kill that bitch, kill everyone in Chen Guogong's mansion!"
After his voice was filled with tears, Nioh suddenly stood up from the ground. Then he seemed to have gotten up too quickly, and he drank so much wine that he couldn't stand still and could only hold on to his side.
Zou Heng, then lowered his voice and said.
"Your Highness, you are drunk. I will send you back to your room to rest!" Zou Heng heard King Ni's words and pulled King Ni hard, preparing to drag King Ni to his own room.
Under his strength, Niou couldn't break away at all, and could only be dragged away by him.
After dragging Niou to his own room, Zou Heng prepared to knock Niou out and then leave. But when Niou returned to the room, he took the initiative to walk to the bed, then lay down and closed his eyes obediently.
When Zou Heng saw this scene, he was about to close the door and leave, but he found that two lines of hot tears were left in the corner of King Ni's eyes, which made him stop a little when he was about to leave.
King Ni seemed to notice that Zou Heng hadn't left yet. He was lying flat on the bed, eyes closed, and spoke in a low voice.
"Master, do you know what I went through when I went to the palace that day?"
Before Zou Heng could answer, King Ren's voice continued, "That day I arrived at the palace and saw my father. I cried to him and asked him to make the decision for me, so my father called the people from Chen Guogong's mansion."
"At the beginning, I was full of hope. I thought my father was going to make the decision for me. Even though my father didn't like my princess, she was my princess after all. But later I found out that I was wrong, even if
After staying in Qi for so many years, I am still my father’s least favorite heir.”
"After the people from Chen Guogong's Mansion came, my father only asked them to apologize to me, and then asked the people from Chen Guogong's Mansion to severely punish the servants who accompanied Chen Le that day, and also asked Chen Le to be grounded at home for half a year.
, that’s all, I lost my beloved, but this is the punishment they received!”
When he said this, Niou, who was lying on the bed, opened his closed eyes and his voice became cold.
"When Chen Le apologized to me in front of my father, he said that if I liked Qi Guo Dancer, he could give me more than ten or twenty of them, just as they were given to me, just as they were given to me
,Ha ha!"
"I still wanted to argue with him, but at this moment, my father, he actually kicked me out and asked the guards to throw me out of the palace!"
As King Ni said this, he actually laughed out loud, then he sat up from the bed and looked at Zou Heng, his eyes full of coldness.
"Master, if you were me and you suffered what I suffered today, what would you do?"
Zou Heng stood there, looking at the King of Ren at this time. After a slight pause, Zou Heng slowly said: "If you have a grudge, take revenge, if you have a grudge, take revenge!"
He uttered these words, and when Niou who was sitting on the bed heard the words, a smile appeared on his face again, and he slowly lay down, then closed his eyes again, and seemed to fall asleep with a smile on his face.
Zou Heng looked at him for a moment, turned around and walked out of the room, closed the door again, and then walked out.
This time, no one stopped him, and Zou Heng walked directly out of the gate of Prince Ren's mansion.
Looking back at the mansion where he had lived for a while, Zou Heng turned around and left without any regrets. On the way, he met a vendor who got up early to sell breakfast. He bought some breakfast with his hands. While eating, he walked towards the city of the royal capital.
Go to the door.
By this time it was already dawn, and there were gradually more and more people on the street, especially the vendors who got up early to set up their stalls. They got up relatively early.
And because of these people, they also ignited the hustle and bustle of the day and made it lively.
Zou Heng was walking and eating, looking around constantly.
Although he visited some places during these days in the Royal Capital, for a big city like the Royal Capital, the places he visited during this period were actually very limited, and he did not see most places.
Now that he is leaving, he can only come back to these places if he has a chance. However, Zou Heng does not think that he will have this opportunity in a short time. If one day he will come to the capital again, then he really doesn’t know when it will be.
.
The road from King Ren's residence to the city gate was actually quite long. It took Zou Heng about an hour to walk there. When he arrived, the city gate was already wide open, and there was an endless stream of people coming in and out.
Most of them are traders transporting some supplies in and out.
The soldiers guarding the city at the city gate would collect a small amount of entry fee from these people from time to time, but the amount was not large. Part of it was collected according to regulations, and the other part was their money.
Zou Heng was obviously dressed as a warlock. When he was preparing to leave the city, he did not face any difficulties and left the city easily.
Although the soldiers guarding the door are not very shrewd, they are definitely very discerning. They know very well who can be provoked and who cannot be provoked. Warlocks like Zou Heng fall into the category of those who cannot be provoked.
of.
The moment he walked out of the gate of the royal capital, Zou Heng suddenly felt like he had escaped from the quagmire. He felt inexplicably relaxed and his mood could not help but feel better.
Looking back at the city gate, Zou Heng walked forward with a smile on his face. As for where he was going, he didn't know for the time being. Anyway, as long as he walked forward and didn't encounter any vicious places, Zou Heng would be there.
You can guarantee that you can survive, even in the wilderness.
Zou Heng set out on the road in a good mood. The last exchange between Nioh and him before going out was now forgotten by him.
After leaving the royal capital, he no longer needed to worry about these things that had little to do with him. He was now a little warlock and could finally take a good look at the world.
Not long after Zou Heng left the royal capital, Li Sheng got the news. As a member of the army, the soldiers guarding the city at the gate of the royal capital could be considered one of their daily sources of information.
After receiving the news, Li Sheng stopped and looked outside the royal capital for a while, and then suddenly turned his gaze in the direction of the palace. The emotions in his eyes were a little complicated. In the end, these complicated emotions turned into a long sigh.
In Nioh's mansion, Nioh fell asleep drunk, but he woke up in the afternoon. After he woke up, with no expression on his face, he came to the house where the princess's coffin was stored.
Standing in front of the coffin, Niou's expression softened a little, and he looked at the coffin and spoke softly.
"Master Zou is indeed a person who can understand my thoughts. It's a pity that I still can't keep him. If I could keep him, what I want to do next will be a lot easier. What a pity!"
"But this is fine. After all, his cultivation level is still too low. Although he is very capable, he may not be able to protect himself. It is rare to have someone who can understand my pain at this time and be kind to me along the way. He
It’s good for Yu’er, I really don’t want anything to happen to him!”
"Perhaps, I regard him as a friend. I have confided a lot of things to him and told him a lot of my weaknesses, so it's okay for him to leave, so that I don't have to worry about the possibility of falling out with him one day!"
"There is revenge, and there is resentment. What he said in the end is exactly what I will do next. I have made arrangements for Yu'er. He will be safe next, but please forgive me, I may have to let us
My child will also play the role I played before. In this way, if I do something next, the national teacher will not directly get rid of me. This is also something that can't be helped. In Yu State, using normal means, I have no chance at all.
