??From the first time she met Queen Jiang in Yanmen County, she had been worried about the Queen's attitude towards the relationship between Yu Wenye and Princess Xinyue, and what she would think of herself; and Judging from her words and attitude towards herself at that time, she didn't seem to have much hostility towards herself for ruining her daughter's marriage.
??But at the same time, she doesn't seem to object to her daughter continuing to associate with Yu Wenye, who is already married.
??This is very strange.
??Yu Wenye is already married, and with Chu Ruoyan’s status as a princess, not to mention avoiding suspicion, even if the two of them continue to develop, this relationship will be very embarrassing, and Chu Ruoyan will be even more embarrassed.
??Because any three-year-old child knows that it is impossible for a princess to be a concubine.
??Are they trying to do something to themselves——?
??Shang Ruyi suppressed this idea as soon as it came up. It was not that his idea was redundant, but that this approach was redundant. If the queen really did not hesitate to get rid of Yu Wenye's first wife to pave the way for her daughter's love, then half a year ago, before they got married, they could have used this thunderbolt method, and there was no need to put Princess Crescent into such an embarrassing situation.
??So, what she is doing now is something that Shang Ruyi cannot see through no matter what.
??Just as countless thoughts were swirling around in Shang Ruyi's mind, Empress Jiang seemed to be missing something again, and said quietly: "Speaking of which, the Duke's wife has passed away, and I should also visit her. It's a pity. There are so many things going on in the palace this time when I return from Northern Xinjiang that I can’t get away for a while.”
??Shang Ruyi hurriedly comforted him: "Your Majesty is thoughtful, and Ruyi's mother-in-law will also be grateful."
??Queen Jiang smiled and nodded.
??Chu Ruoyan on the side blinked her big eyes and said softly: "Next time, the queen can tell the second brother and the others to come to the palace to meet each other."
??When she heard this, Queen Jiang immediately shook her head, looked at her with a bit of reproach, and said: "Do you think it's still the same as when you were a child, and you can let him enter the palace at any time?"
??Shang Ruyi was stunned when he heard this: "Two--he often went to the palace when he was a child?"
??Chu Ruoyan immediately rushed to say: "Yes, my second brother often went to the palace to play with me when he was a child, even in Daxing City. My father even left someone to take care of him."
??While they were talking, the sound of Chu Chengfei's laughter kept coming from outside. He was running around, attracting several palace maids and eunuchs to chase him. Everyone was sweating profusely, but he was having a great time.
??Looking at this scene, Empress Jiang's gentle eyes showed a trace of nostalgia, and she smiled and said: "Feng Chen was also a naughty child when he was a child, just like Fei'er, jumping up and down in the palace. Yes, the older eunuchs can't keep up with him. Thanks to him, Ruo Yan is not so lonely."
??Hearing this, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but look outside.
??That Yu Wenye, who was cold and indifferent, could hardly smile at her, who could shoot and injure the Turkic Khan among thousands of troops and defeat an army of 100,000, was he like this when he was a child?
??What kind of experience made him become what he is now?
??No one told her the answer. Only Empress Jiang sighed: "It's just that later, as they grew older, they couldn't be like they were when they were children - he hadn't been to the palace for many years."...
??「……」
??Shang Ruyi was a little stunned for a moment.
??This is something she doesn’t know.
??No wonder Yu Wenye has such a good relationship with the princess. They grew up together as childhood sweethearts. The emperor and empress were probably well aware of his character, so they decided to get married to each other. It was a pity that he——
??She just felt a little guilty in her heart, and was immediately disturbed by another wave of thoughts.
??Why did Queen Jiang say these words to herself?
??Does she really not mind that her daughter continues to be married to Yu Wenye, and she still wants to accept it all?
??Shang Ruyi shook her head gently. She felt that she was a little bit villainous. But if it weren't for this, she really couldn't explain what the dignified empress said to her at this moment.
What other thoughts could you have?
??Although she was very confused, she didn't show anything on her face. She only chatted and laughed with the queen and princess.
??Gradually, time passes.
??When we looked at the sky outside, it had already darkened. Queen Jiang and Princess Xinyue had been chatting with her for so long, but they really just talked about some gossip, and even talked about the delicious snacks in the palace. Come to think of it, This time, the queen really just called her into the palace to talk, and had no other deeper meaning.
??So Shang Ruyi stood up and said: "I have disturbed the empress and princess for so long, it's time for Ruyi to go back."
??Empress Jiang said: "Come into the palace when you have free time and talk to me."
??"yes."
??"Ruo Yan, please send Mrs. Yuwen to you on my behalf."
??Shang Ruyi was about to refuse, but Chu Ruoyan had already stood up and walked to her side. He seemed to have something to say to her. After thinking about it, she apologized and walked out with Chu Ruoyan.
??As soon as she walked outside the main hall, she heard the princess say softly: "Madam, I have something that I would like to ask Madam to deliver to my second brother on my behalf."
??「……」
??Shang Ruyi couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
??This princess, I don’t know if she is naive or magnanimous, or perhaps she is really naive to the point of magnanimity.
?? She smiled and turned around and said, "Your Highness, if you have anything, please feel free to give it."
??There were two young palace maids standing outside the main hall. They had obviously just followed the princess. Chu Ruoyan waved his hand, and one of them immediately brought a small brocade box and sent it over. Chu Ruoyan handed over the brocade box. After placing it in Shang Ruyi's hand, he said softly: "Please Madam, please pass this on to me."
??"This is--"
??"Here are the prescriptions I've been looking for everywhere."
??"prescription?!"
??If it were something else, even if it was a token of love between two people, Shang Ruyi would have accepted it calmly and handed it over without saying a word more, but the word prescription shocked her.
??Yu Wenye actually asked the princess for a prescription. Could it be that he was sick?
??Shang Ruyi said hurriedly: "Your Highness, Er——Yu Wen, Feng Chen, what happened to him?"
??Seeing that she was a little incoherent and seemed to be deliberately avoiding the same title as him, Chu Ruoyan pursed her red lips and said softly: "Madam, I know you have always called him second brother, you don't have to do that. Avoidance. I, I don’t mind..."
??「……」
??As soon as these words came out, Shang Ruyi was startled for a while.
??Speaking of it, she was the one who should have minded, but she avoided the taboo, but the princess didn't mind. I really couldn't tell who of them should evade the taboo and who should mind.
??How can it be so confusing?
??Shang Ruyi gave a bitter smile and said softly: "Thank you, Your Highness. Then, what is this prescription for, Your Highness? Does Second Brother have any disease? Why don't I know?"
??Chu Ruoyan waved her hands and said, "Madam, don't worry, it's not a serious illness."
??"That is--"
??"It's his old problem, cramps in his legs."
