Chapter 744 Trouble (5)
Aunt Yang also laughed: "Young Marquis is as precious as gold and jade, and purple is precious. Only the young Marquis can look so good in it. When His Highness brought the young Marquis into the palace, others thought he was a prince."
"She looks like a member of the royal family. Even Yuqing didn't have such a bearing back then." Princess Rongxin also laughed, stroking the dark patterns embroidered with gold thread on the corner of her robe, but as she laughed, she couldn't laugh anymore.
His expression gradually became solemn.
Just as she and Aunt Yang had just said, Xie Jingxing was very picky about his clothes. He liked to wear purple clothes and liked gorgeous things, but he didn't want them to be too ostentatious. He insisted on using dark golden silk thread to embroider patterns on the corners of his robes or on the lapels. Because of his high standards, the silk thread was very fine and the patterns were very unique.
But that day in the palace, Prince Rui, who was tugging at Shen Miao, was wearing a purple and gold robe, pulling Shen Miao's hand upwards. The gold thread on the sleeves was exactly the same as the one Xie Jingxing used to wear.
Princess Rongxin wasn't feeling well, but she wasn't blind. When she saw Prince Rui that day and heard Shen Miao call him Xie Jingxing, she briefly mistook him for Xie Jingxing. But then, seeing Prince Rui's demeanor and aura, she felt strangely unfamiliar. After hearing Prince Rui's explanation, she dismissed the thought. But she always felt like something was amiss, and after returning to the Princess's Mansion, she kept thinking about Xie Jingxing and Prince Rui.
She had always thought that the reason she was so upset about this was because Prince Rui and Xie Jingxing had exactly the same small characters, but now she suddenly realized that it had nothing to do with the name, but was simply because she saw the edge of the other person's sleeve.
Having lived with Xie Jingxing for over a decade, Princess Rongxin treated him like her own child. A mother always pays special attention to her child's affairs, no matter how small. She also remembered the pattern on the sleeve clearly, but she hadn't seen it in two years since Xie Jingxing's death, so she hadn't remembered it for a while. But today, she remembered it here. It was exactly the same pattern as Prince Rui's!
Some things are destined to happen. Sometimes all it takes is a trigger, just like stringing together all the scattered beads, and then everything will have an answer.
They both love to wear purple clothes, have the same pattern on the corners of their robes, are both called "Jingxing", and both have a special relationship with Shen Miao.
Princess Rongxin suddenly remembered the basket of medicine.
Why didn't it exist before, but it appeared today? Was it because she had a heart attack in front of King Rui a few days ago, and a few days later, merchants from afar came to sell medicinal herbs?
When coincidences happen too often, they are no longer coincidences.
Once the seed of doubt sprouts, there is no way it will grow back. It quickly sprouts branches in the heart, quickly grows upward into a towering tree, until it takes deep and unshakable roots in the soil and stands there indestructibly.
Thinking about it now, there was always an inexplicable nobility about Xie Jingxing at such a young age. I thought it was due to his good upbringing, but I didn't realize it was probably just due to his different bloodline. Although his temperament and figure had changed, some things couldn't be changed, like small habits, like... the connection between family members.
Princess Rongxin suddenly squatted down and pressed her chest. Aunt Yang was shocked to see that Princess Rongxin's face was pale and beads of sweat began to ooze from her forehead. She hurriedly shouted, "Come! Call a doctor! The princess's heart disease has recurred!"
A hand suddenly grasped Aunt Yang's hand. Princess Rongxin's face was painful, but her tone was very firm. She said, "Help me back to the study and bring me a letter."
She had to verify one thing for herself.
