Just when everyone was in panic, roaring and charging forward, and the surrounding pedestrians were scared to scream and run away, Yu Wenye suddenly reined in the reins and stopped in front.
The Praetorian Guards who were pursuing him were caught off guard and almost hit him.
Everyone was in shock and didn't know what happened. Wang Shaoji galloped up on his horse and looked at him standing there calmly. Then he looked around and said with red eyes: "You, what are you doing?"
Yu Wenye said calmly: "It's nothing."
"Nothing, why are you running?"
"You're riding a horse, not running?"
"..."
His slow and understated look made it even more obvious that Wang Shaoji had been frightened and at a loss just now, as if he had been teased by him. Wang Shaoji was so angry that his mouth was twisted.
Shang Ruyi, who came up behind them, was also a little panicked at this time.
Looking at Yu Wenye's calm face, it was obvious that he was not trying to escape, nor did he seem to be teasing these people, but he was not a person who was aimless. There must be a reason for such a false shot just now.
But what's the reason?
Shang Ruyi glanced around subconsciously. Some of the people who were running away from each other recognized them, and some did not. They just murmured curses in a low voice. After all, everyone who came to the street was just wandering around to relax. If you are hit by a horse, it can be fatal.
Nothing unusual.
Shang Ruyi looked back in confusion, only to find that Yu Wenye was stopping at the door of Tinghe Tower.
There were quite a few people inside, and some people were attracted by the noise outside. They all poked their heads out to take a look. It seemed that nothing was out of the ordinary.
Shang Ruyi looked at Yu Wenye with increasing confusion.
What was he doing when he made such a fuss?
Although he was a little shocked, at least Yu Wenye was still there and didn't really run away. Wang Shaoji was frightened and winked at his men to surround him before continuing to move forward.
This time, it was completely impossible to escape.
They didn't stop until they reached the fork in the road.
Here is where he is going to Dali Temple, and Shang Ruyi and the others are going back to Yuwen Mansion, where they part ways.
Yu Wenye stopped his horse and looked back at Shang Ruyi in the team. Shang Ruyi also immediately got off his horse and walked over. But as soon as she got closer, Wang Shao and the people around her immediately stepped forward to stop her: "What are you doing?"
Shang Ruyi frowned and looked at them.
Yu Wenye also glanced at them, then looked at Wang Shaoji, who was looking coldly at the side, and said with a faint smile: "General Wang, are you so cautious?"
"..."
"Even if my wife could turn into wings, she wouldn't be able to fly out with me."
"..."
"However, if you are really worried about me running away, then it would be better for us and my husband to say a few words. At least, General Wang can feel at ease."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Shaoji's face became even more ugly.
Just now Yu Wenye feinted a shot, and it seemed that he was making a fuss, but now he is so cautious, as if he is really afraid of him. He thought for a long time, then sneered and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. I would also like to see what other tricks you can pull off."
After saying that, he waved his hand and the few guards blocking the road got out of the way.
Shang Ruyi hurriedly walked to Yu Wenye and looked up at him: "Second brother!"
….
Yu Wenye did not dismount, but leaned down to face her.
Shang Ruyi said worriedly: "You——"
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Yu Wenye, who said calmly: "I'm going to Dali Temple, and it will probably take a few days to come back. You take Mr. Mu and the others home. I made it clear to you before, Don’t go out for a walk, let alone leave the city.”
Shang Ruyi said: "I know."
"As for the people at home, try your best to comfort them. Don't let any more trouble happen in the past few days."
"OK."
"I have already sent all my father's letters. If he writes again,
Come on, please consider your answer carefully and don't make him worry too much. "
"Don't worry about this, I will take care of it."
Although he explained these things, Yu Wenye's tone was very calm and his expression was as usual, as if he was just going out on his own and would be back in a few days. Who would have thought that the place he was going to next was Dali Temple, and What is going to be tried is the case where he lost three battles, fled with his troops, and even killed the supervisors personally appointed by the imperial court!
That's a serious crime that can make someone's head fall to the ground if you're not careful!
Although Shang Ruyi didn't want him to worry too much, at this time, he still couldn't help but ask: "How many days will it take for you to come back?"
Yu Wenye said: "The matter has been explained clearly, it will only take a few days."
"Then I——"
"You stay at home and take good care of yourself."
Realizing that he could do nothing and seemed to be a useless person waiting for him to come home, Shang Ruyi's mood became increasingly depressed, his eyelids drooped, and his eyelashes covered his bright eyes.
And Yu Wenye looked into her dim eyes and suddenly said: "You actually don't eat mutton, do you?"
"...?"
Shang Ruyi was startled and looked up at him in surprise: "How do you know?"
It is true that she has not eaten mutton since she was a child, but when Yu Wenye took her to a restaurant on the second day after their wedding in Taiyuan Prefecture, he ordered a table of mutton. She had no appetite at all and only pointed to a plate of stew. After a few words, at that time, because the relationship between the two was just a transaction, she felt that there was no need to be sentimental, so she did not tell him her likes and dislikes.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly mentioned this matter at this time.
However, Yu Wenye seemed a little displeased, glared at her and said, "It's okay to talk about this kind of thing."
Shang Ruyi bit his lower lip.
Yu Wenye snorted lightly before asking again: "Do you want to eat venison?"
Shang Ruyi didn't know why he had to ask this at this time, so he just said: "Eat."
Yu Wenye nodded.
Shang Ruyi became more and more puzzled. The two of them were obviously talking about family arrangements and the case in Dali Temple before, so why did they suddenly bring up eating mutton and venison again? Just when he was confused, he heard Yu Wenye say: "I just took a look and heard that there is a new water sign on Helou. When I come back in a few days, I will bring you to eat Xiaotiansu and Medicinal Soup."
"...!"
Shang Ruyi looked at him stupidly for a while, then said hoarsely: "You, you just ran - and then stopped, just to see the water sign?"
Yu Wenye smiled lightly and said, "Go back and wait for me. Don't worry too much."
After saying that, he straightened up and said to Wang Shaoji, "Let's go."
Wang Shaoji and everyone immediately stepped forward and took him away.
Shang Ruyi stood there, although her heart hurt a little as she watched him being taken away by a group of people, but his gentle and peaceful words just now seemed to still echo in her ears, and inexplicably soothed her heart.
Even, because of the expectation, it has a little more strength.
Watching Yu Wenye's back disappear in front of her, she took a deep breath, turned around and said, "Go home!"
Mu Xian and others immediately took the order, mounted their horses and followed her.
