Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly saw Xiao Zhen pull out another letter from the box.
His expression suddenly changed when he saw the signature above.
"Father, what's wrong?" Rong Qingqing asked quickly when she saw it.
Xiao Zhen had already opened the letter and quickly began to read it.
After reading the letter, he was furious and slammed his fist on the stone table in front of him.
With a loud bang, the stone table shattered into pieces.
Rong Qingqing disregarded her fear and immediately picked up the letter he had dropped on the ground, quickly glancing through it.
After reading it, she looked at him in surprise. "Father, is this the letter you wrote to Mother?" The letter actually contained only a few lines, which were roughly about Father wanting to break up with Mother.
Could it be that this letter led my mother to resolutely marry Rong Shiqing even while she was pregnant?
"I didn't write it." After a long while, Xiao Zhen said through gritted teeth, his eyes bloodshot, and his murderous aura was so heavy that it was frightening.
Rong Qingqing saw that the signature was indeed his, but judging from his reaction, she believed that the letter was not written by him.
But if it weren't true, why would Mother believe it?
“This handwriting is exactly the same as mine, but it’s not mine,” Xiao Zhen said with certainty, then said sadly, “Someone must have forged my handwriting and written it to your mother.”
Upon hearing this, Rong Qingqing was taken aback. "Someone imitated your handwriting and wrote to my mother?"
Xiao Zhen rubbed his temples and replied wearily, "Mm."
"Who could it be?" Rong Qingqing was very surprised. Who would do such a thing? Was his purpose to separate her mother and father?
If that's the case, then that person has achieved their goal.
Because of this letter, my parents were unable to be together, and now they are separated by death.
"I don't know," Xiao Zhen shook his head.
Looking at the weariness in his eyes, Rong Qingqing thought for a moment and asked, "Father, what exactly happened between you and Mother in Suzhou? Why did Mother leave you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhen felt somewhat desolate and reluctant to bring it up, but faced with his daughter's curious expression, he had no choice but to say, "Your mother has misunderstood. That day, Princess Huaiyin happened to come from Huaiyin to visit me. Since we grew up together and have a bond, I hosted a banquet for her. However, she may have drunk too much. When I saw her off, she suddenly hugged me. Your mother happened to see this scene and was very unhappy at the time, so she turned around and left."
I wanted to chase after her, but Princess Huaiyin was drunk and wouldn't let me leave. By the time I took Princess Huaiyin to be settled, it was already late at night. I thought your mother might have already gone to bed, so I planned to go and explain to her the next day. But when I went to find her the next day, she wasn't there. I had to go inspect the military camp and couldn't delay. I thought that by the time I returned from my inspection, your mother's anger would have subsided. But unfortunately, something happened at the military camp, and by the time I finished dealing with it and returned, three days had passed. I rushed to find your mother, but when I arrived, the place was deserted. Your mother had left Suzhou with her servants without leaving a single word.
After hearing this, Rong Qingqing didn't know what to say.
After a long pause, she scolded, "Father, how could you be so foolish? Mother loves you so much, how could she tolerate you being entangled with other women?" Besides, her mother's parents had both passed away at that time, and she was naturally more sensitive, so it was understandable that her feelings for her father would waver. However, she felt that a woman as clever and intelligent as her mother would not leave her hometown because of such a thing; there must be some hidden reason behind it.
