??Shang Ruyi didn't notice the gaze behind her that was almost piercing her side. She led Eunuch Yu and the others to the side hall to drink tea. While talking, she couldn't help but be distracted.
??I don’t know what the two people in the backyard are talking about now...
??say what? It's impossible to say something about oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, right?
??She felt a little bored, why should she care about what others said? After all, she was the one who arranged for them to go to the backyard, and she was also the one who took Eunuch Yu and the others to the side hall so as not to disturb the two of them. And all of this was not her fault. Is it the price of exchange that was discussed with Yu Wenye before?
??Since it’s an exchange, then you shouldn’t think too much about the money and goods!
??"Young Madam...?"
??Eunuch Yu's voice suddenly sounded in her ears. Shang Ruyi woke up from a dream and hurriedly raised his head: "Ah? What's the matter, Eunuch?"
??The Jade Eunuch sat opposite her, looked at her, and said for a long time: "My condolences, young lady."
??「……?」
??Shang Ruyi was stunned. He didn't show a sad expression just now. How could he suddenly say such things to himself?
??So he hurriedly smiled and said, "Forgive me, father-in-law, I was a little distracted just now."
??Eunuch Yu said with a smile: "Young Madam is in charge of such a big place in the house at such a young age. With so many people, it is inevitable that you will be tired. I hope Young Madam will take care of yourself."
??"Thank you for your concern, father-in-law."
??"Where, where?"
??The two of them were not familiar with each other, and they could only exchange polite words when they went back and forth. But Shang Ruyi could vaguely feel that this Eunuch Yu was different from the few servants he had interacted with before, and he had treated Yu Wenye since he had just delivered the order. From what he said, it seemed that he had a friendly attitude towards the government of other countries.
??Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi said carefully: "Father, I take the liberty to ask, why did your majesty confer my husband on the title at this time?"
??The Jade Eunuch smiled and said: "The second young master has been diligent in protecting the king this time and has made outstanding military achievements. If we don't canonize him, who should we do?"
??「……」
??These words are obviously perfunctory.
??Shang Ruyi didn't feel like asking any more questions, so he smiled and was modest.
??On the other hand, Eunuch Jade looked at her with his shrewd little eyes for a while, and then said with a smile: "The Duke of the country avoids relatives because of his talents. The second young master has outstanding martial arts, but he has been buried and cannot be reused. If Your Majesty does not canonize him, there will be no chance for him to make contributions." ah?"
??「……?」
??Shang Ruyi was startled.
??Opportunity to make a contribution...Did Eunuch Yu say it politely, or did Chu Yang already have such an arrangement?
??If there is such an arrangement, then the current opportunity seems to be only——
?? She suddenly felt a chill in her body, but she still had a humble and slightly proud look on her face. She drank tea and had snacks with Eunuch Yu, but her thoughts couldn't help but drift away.
??When will these people leave? She is eager to tell Yu Wenye her suspicions.
??As soon as this idea came to her mind, she immediately laughed at her wishful thinking. Not to mention that the coming and going of people like Eunuch Yu was not up to her, but that of the princess in the backyard, Yu Wenye was afraid that she wanted her to stay for a long time. If you are by your side, how can you hope that she will leave quickly?
??Speaking of it, it is really not easy for Her Royal Highness the Princess. She is in the palace, but she is always thinking about this person outside the palace. She tries every means and overcomes all difficulties and dangers to come and see him. Probably the only one who can be so gentle is Only emotion can soothe Yu Wenye's pain at this moment. ….
??Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
??Compared with this, my pathetic "sentimentality" is not too hard.
??Now, the people who are really working hard are——
??Shang Ruyi glanced at Eunuch Yu again, smiled and said, "Eunuch, I have one more thing to ask Eunuch."
??Mr. Yu said impartially: "Young madam, please ask."
??Shang Ruyi is careful
Said: "When he was in Yanmen County, His Majesty promised me that he would release my uncle to return to the Eastern Capital. I don't know what happened now -"
??"oh,"
??Eunuch Yu nodded and said: "Our family knows about this. After His Majesty returned to the palace, he immediately sent an edict to Lingnan, which was to pardon Master Shen. Now, the edict should still be on the way, but it won't be long. It should be delivered to Lingnan, please don’t worry, Madam.”
??Shang Ruyi was overjoyed.
??"This, this is great."
??As he said that, he said to Eunuch Yu again and again: "Thank you so much, Eunuch."
??The Jade Eunuch looked at her with a smile and said with emotion: "Master Shen is lucky to have a junior like Madam who cares for him wholeheartedly."
??Shang Ruyi felt happy and fortunate at the same time, and said with emotion: "Ruyi was raised by his uncle and aunt since he was a child. They are the most important people in the world to me——"
??While they were talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the side hall door, and just when Shang Ruyi finished speaking, the footsteps stopped at the door.
??Shang Ruyi turned around and saw that it was Yu Wenye!
??He stood at the small door of the side hall, his tall body immediately blocking all the light outside, which was not bright, giving people a feeling of a cloudy sky.
??Even when Shang Ruyi met his eyes, she felt that his eyes were full of darkness.
??Especially when looking at yourself.
??She was stunned - what happened?
??Looking behind him subconsciously, the Crescent Moon Princess dressed as a little eunuch also followed in. Her eyes were slightly red, as if she had just cried, but her emotions have calmed down now.
??Why did they end so quickly?
??Shang Ruyi fully thought that if they got together in the backyard, they would have to delay at least one more cup of tea.
??But it’s better to do it so quickly, so as not to reveal the truth. After all, there are so many officials in the palace coming to express their condolences. If they are found out, if it tarnishes the princess’ reputation, they will all be in trouble.
??Sure enough, Yu Wenye walked in with a gloomy face and said very politely to Eunuch Yu: "Eunuch, it's getting late. I'm afraid there are still many complicated things in the palace waiting for your father-in-law to go back to deal with, so I'll keep you here for you." Already."
??Eunuch Yu hurriedly stood up and said with a smile, "General, you're welcome."
??After saying that, he walked to Princess Crescent Moon, whispered a few words, and then left.
??Shang Ruyi naturally got up and followed him out to see off the guests. When he walked to the gate, Aunt Hui came up to him and gave Eunuch Yu a box, saying that he had prepared some cakes for them to eat on the way, but looking aside The heavy look on the little eunuch's face when he took it over clearly meant that it was not just a pastry, but Eunuch Yu understood it and took it over with a smile.
??Just as they were being polite, a sweet and soft voice sounded in Shang Ruyi's ears——….
??"Thank you."
??Shang Ruyi's heart moved slightly, and as soon as he turned his head, he met those clear eyes that were still a little red.
??It’s the Crescent Princess.
??I saw her standing aside. Although she was wearing a futou robe and was not eye-catching, but if you look closely at that bright and charming face, even as a woman, you can't help but feel that it is pleasing to the eye, and you can even find it hard to take your eyes away.
??Speaking of which, this is the first time the two of them have faced each other directly.
??Although Shang Ruyi's emotions were complicated, he was still quite polite when facing her, with a hint of respect in his politeness. He said in a low voice: "Your Highness, you're welcome."
??Faced with her polite and distant look, Chu Ruoyan hesitated for a while, and then said: "I didn't want him to be too sad, so I came to visit him and comfort him. We didn't do anything evil. I hope you don't ..."
??The golden princess didn’t seem to know how to say the next words.
??Shang Ruyi glanced at her, and for a moment, he felt a little astringent.
??Sure enough, there is only such mutual happiness between two people,
Only then can they travel thousands of miles without regretting it, and the innocence and openness of the two of them makes it seem that the random thoughts they just had were too unbearable.
??Moreover, she did not expect that the princess, who was clearly considered to be a noble person, would be so polite and a little cautious when speaking to her, as if she was afraid of offending herself.
??Shang Ruyi smiled lightly and said, "Your Highness is serious."
??At this time, Eunuch Yu and the others had finished their greetings, and everyone walked out. Chu Ruoyan gave Yu Wenye one final reluctant look, and followed them.
??Shang Ruyi stood at the door, watching their carriage disappear at the end of the long street.
?? Then he breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and walked inside.
??As soon as he took a step, he heard Yu Wenye's cold voice from behind: "Stop!".
