Speaking of which, it has been several months since I married into the Yuwen family. I don’t know whether it was for fear of embarrassing myself or for some other reason. From top to bottom in the entire Yuwen family, almost no one mentioned him. After saying those words to himself, Shang Ruyi even doubted whether there was such a person as Yuwen Sui.
Unexpectedly, at this time, I finally heard them talking about Yuwen Cui again.
Even if he is not Guan Yunmu's biological child, she is still her legitimate mother after all. It is unjustifiable that he did not come back for Mrs. Guan's funeral.
Sure enough, Yu Wenye was silent for a long time and said solemnly: "I know you have difficulties, but this dynasty governs the world with filial piety. As a son of a man, he didn't even show up for his mother's funeral. I'm just afraid that he will be criticized in the future."
"..."
"Aunt Hui, this is for the sake of my eldest brother. I hope you can send more people over and inform your eldest brother no matter what."
Aunt Hui across from me let out a long sigh and said, "This is natural. I will definitely send more manpower."
"Okay, please excuse me, Aunt Hui."
"Second Young Master, please don't talk about this. There is something else going on outside, so I'll go and get busy first."
"You go first, I'll be there in a moment."
The two of them were polite, but they heard footsteps walking away. It was Aunt Hui who left.
Immediately, there was another set of footsteps at the door, but they were getting closer and closer. Shang Ruyi panicked and subconsciously ran to the bed for some reason. But as soon as he turned around, the door behind him was pushed open with a creak. .
Suddenly, the wind rushed up from her back with a familiar breath, as if holding her whole.
Shang Ruyi's footsteps froze in place.
Then, I heard Yu Wenye's cold voice coming from behind: "What are you hiding from?"
"..."
There was obviously no place to hide, and she obviously didn't feel that we couldn't meet each other. But for some reason, Shang Ruyi's face suddenly turned red when she heard his voice. She didn't even dare to look back, she just lowered her head. Standing where you are, not moving forward.
The person behind him entered the room, closed the door with his backhand, and then walked to her step by step.
Shang Ruyi lowered his head and said softly: "I, I didn't hide..."
"oh?"
The person in front of her lowered her head to face her, and her breath blew on her forehead. It was not as hot as last night, but returned to the usual warmth and long-lasting warmth. Shang Ruyi subconsciously raised his head and met a pair of bright eyes. Just now When he spoke, his voice was obviously cold, but at this moment, his eyes seemed to have melted away from the usual coldness, instead showing a softness that was imperceptible.
Just looking at each other, Shang Ruyi felt a numbness in his back and immediately lowered his head.
Yu Wenye looked down at her, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be raised slightly, but he still pursed his lips and said, "You didn't hide, so what were you doing just now?"
Shang Ruyi lowered his head, his mind confused: "Don't listen to anything inappropriate."
"..."
"I just heard it accidentally."
Yu Wenye frowned subconsciously: "Then, do you want to hear it?"
Shang Ruyi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
It may be a bit selfish to say it, but for her marriage with him, and for her to continue to be the young lady in the Yuwen family, it is best for Yuwen Sui to never appear, or even be mentioned in front of her. He is the best...
Yu Wenye's eyes flickered and he was silent for a long time before he said, "If you don't want to hear it, then just pretend you didn't hear it. This matter has nothing to do with you."
Shang Ruyi nodded gently.
After saying these words, the two of them faced each other again, feeling a little awkward for some reason. Especially when Shang Ruyi lowered his head, he could clearly see the messy quilt on the bed behind him, and it seemed that he could still see the two people on it last night. The traces left by sleeping in each other's arms.
Her face suddenly felt a little hot, and then she felt soft and swaying all over her body.
Yu Wenye reached out and held her arm: "What's wrong?"
When Shang Ruyi raised his head again, his cheeks were a little red and his voice was soft: "I,
Seems a little hungry. "
"..."
After being busy these past few days, she had not eaten properly. Yesterday, she accompanied Yu Wenye to rest because he fainted. After such a long time, she was already hungry.
Yu Wenye's eyes immediately became cold again.
The hand holding her arm was a little harder, and there seemed to be a hint of anger. He pulled her to the side of the room and sat down in front of a short table. Then he went out and gave orders. After a while, steaming soup, rice and side dishes were served. It was brought up.
He sat opposite her: "Eat quickly!"
Shang Ruyi picked up the bowl, thought about it and looked at him again: "What about you?"
Yu Wenye let out a deep breath: "I'll eat it too."
After saying that, he also picked up the bowls and chopsticks. Shang Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief. The two stopped talking. Only the sound of bowls and chopsticks was heard in the room. After a few mouthfuls of hot soup and rice, his hunger was immediately dispelled. and weakness also made Shang Ruyi feel more energetic.
She raised her head to look at Yu Wenye and whispered, "Do you still have a fever now?"
"It's okay now."
"That's good."
"..."
Yu Wenye was silent for a moment and looked at her with twinkling eyes: "Thank you for taking care of me last night."
For some reason, his voice was obviously calm, but as soon as he heard the word "take care of", Shang Ruyi thought of how she had jumped on him in a hurry last night and pressed him with her body, and her face suddenly turned red again.
She bit her lower lip and whispered, "You're welcome."
After saying that, he stood up to leave.
But Yu Wenye held her arm again and pushed her back to sit down: "Wait, I have something else to ask you."
Shang Ruyi lowered his head, just wanting to avoid his hot cheeks from his sight, and said, "What's the matter?"
"..."
Yu Wenye stared at her for a long time before saying, "How did you and the emperor meet?"
"...?!"
Shang Ruyi was stunned and looked up at him in astonishment.
Didn't he already ask about this matter in the backyard of Yanmen County's government office? She also answered that the two people's words became more and more irritating, almost quarreled, and finally broke up.
More than a month later, they returned to Luoyang in the same car, and he didn't ask any more questions along the way.
Shang Ruyi thought that this matter was over, but he didn't expect that he would ask again?
So he said softly: "Didn't you already ask?"
Yu Wenye's face gradually darkened, but those eyes were fixed for a moment, as if they refused to let go of her expression and emotion. He said in a deep voice: "Before, I asked you when we met. Now What I want to ask is - why do you know each other?"
"..."
"As far as I know, you have never been to the palace, and the emperor has not been to the Shen family."
"..."
"Why did you meet each other, and why did he-"
At this point, he seemed a little angry, and he swallowed the rest of the words, staring at Shang Ruyi with burning eyes: "Answer me!".
