"His Majesty,"
After a moment of silence, Shang Ruyi looked at those slender eyes that seemed a little confused and seemed to be waiting for some answer attentively, and said solemnly: "Of course Ruyi cares about him."
"..."
"He is a wonderful husband."
The expression on Chu Yang's face was slightly shocked.
But after saying these words, Shang Ruyi's heart seemed to be a little firmer than before.
Because what she knew more clearly in her heart was that she did choose him, but it was not a choice at this moment, nor was it a choice she made after experiencing life and death in Xingluocang.
She had already made her choice when she first met him and agreed to the marriage.
And choice is life.
only--
She looked up again at the man in front of her.
If her fascination with Yu Wenye began with her stunning appearance at first sight, then Chu Yang, the most powerful and wealthy Ninth Five Supreme Being, also has a handsomeness that is enough to surprise her, or in other words, attract any woman, and She was not completely unaware of the words he said to her and the things he did.
In the past, she had never thought that her choices would affect him.
But now, she couldn't help but think about it.
Even if she still wasn't enough to influence him, she couldn't help but think about what his future would be like.
What will happen to his life?
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi raised his head and said cautiously but urgently: "Your Majesty——"
But before she finished speaking, she felt a sudden gust of wind blowing on her face. When she looked closely, she saw that Chu Yang's face suddenly changed, and he coldly threw away the oil-paper umbrella in his hand.
Her long sleeves were waving, and a gust of wind picked up the rain and snow, which suddenly hit her face.
Shang Ruyi closed his eyes subconsciously.
When she opened her eyes again, the exquisite oil-paper umbrella had floated into the air. It only delayed for a moment, then slowly floated down and landed at her feet. Chu Yang had already turned around and got on the carriage without looking back. .
"His Majesty!"
Shang Ruyi wanted to say something else, but Eunuch Yu had already walked over and stopped in front of her.
"Young Madam, Your Majesty is returning to the palace."
"..."
"It's getting late, Madam, please come back early."
After saying that, there seemed to be a hint of worry on the white and fat face, but he didn't say anything more. He just sighed softly, then turned around and walked to the carriage. After a while, he heard the coachman shouting. The carriage drove forward slowly.
There was no sound from the drooping curtains and closed car doors.
Shang Ruyi stood motionless. The wind and snow got worse. The coachman behind him finally couldn't hold himself back anymore and let out a slight sweat: "Young Madam?"
At this time, Shang Ruyi slowly turned around.
Under the gloomy sky, her face was full of contradictions and struggles, but the moment she faced the outsider, all her emotions were restrained and she said calmly: "Let's go."
She returned to the carriage, and after walking for a while, she arrived at Yuwen Mansion.
Naturally, the family had been waiting all day, and everyone was relieved when she came back. Shang Ruyi said a few words to Jinyun and asked her to comfort the servants, and then he took Tu Sheer and the others back to their room. .
After taking a shower, washing away the chill that almost penetrated her muscles and bones, and returning to the room, she asked Chang Wan who was making her bed: "Have the things been delivered?"...
Changwan hurriedly turned to face her: "Young madam, all the clothes have been sent in."
"Have you met the young master?"
"No. The people in Dali Temple didn't let the slaves in at all. They still used money to bribe the people inside before they sent the clothes in."
"Did you ask anything?"
"My servants asked about it. They said that the second young master was not imprisoned or tortured. It seems that he did not suffer much."
The corners of Shang Ruyi's eyes twitched slightly.
When Chang Wan said, "What crime is confiscated?", her heart
Li doesn't quite agree. To torture a person in Dali Temple, you don't necessarily need to go to jail or use torture. They have too many ways to make people uncomfortable. What's more, the person involved in the interrogation of this case this time is Wang Shaoji.
The two families have always been political enemies, and Wang Shaoji has done countless things to harm the Yuwen family, both covertly and overtly. This time, Yuwen Ye has fallen into his hands, and there is no way he can do nothing.
For example, today——
She was silent for a while, but did not express her thoughts. She just nodded and said, "You have worked hard. Go down and rest."
Chang Wan said: "Yes."
When she left, only Shang Ruyi and Tusheer were left in the bedroom. Tusheer immediately walked to her side and said eagerly: "Miss, the emperor and the queen asked you to enter the palace today. Why did they ask you to enter the palace? Is it because of my uncle?"
Shang Ruyi glanced down at her and said softly: "Yes."
Tusheer asked hurriedly: "What's going on? Will they let me go?"
Shang Ruyi thought for a while and said, "Maybe it will be soon - at least, there should be a result."
"What's the meaning?"
"I met Wang Shaoji and Zhai Ying in the palace today."
Tu Sheer blinked. Although she knew Wang Shaoji was a bad guy, the name Zhai Ying was still unfamiliar to her. So Shang Ruyi briefly said that Yu Wenye's case would be handed over to the Shaoqing of Dali Temple for trial. thing.
As Tusheer listened, a look of fear appeared on her face: "They actually interrogated the young lady in front of the emperor and empress!"
"..."
"Then, what did they ask? How did you answer, Miss?"
Mentioning this, a cold light flashed in Shang Ruyi's eyes.
She said: "They asked me, when Yu Wenye and I left Xingluocang and were blocked by Kou Yunliang's people, a group of people attacked the imperial troops led by Kou Yunliang, causing chaos and saving us - that group of people, who who."
In this battle of Xingluocang, Shang Ruyi had told Tusheer intermittently since returning. Although he had concealed many details after he was captured into Cangcheng, such a big event naturally had to be told to her.
Tusheer immediately said: "So, the lady said, it's Tao Kesheng and his people?"
Shang Ruyi shook his head: "No."
"No?"
Tusheer's eyes widened in surprise, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "What did the young lady say?"
Shang Ruyi said: "I said, I don't know."
"..."
"But it looks like they are from the Wang Gang Army."
"ah!?"
This time, Tusheer was even more surprised: "Why?"
"..."
"Didn't Miss arrange for Tao Kesheng and the others to wait at Luokou Ferry to pick you up? Moreover, it was clearly them who did this. Miss, you have told this slave before, why do you say they are from Wang Gang's army? This, this no--"….
Shang Ruyi looked at her and said calmly: "I lied to the people in Dali Temple—no, I lied to the emperor and the queen."
"...!"
Tusheer gasped.
Although she is usually careless, she often does some bold things, but she can deceive the emperor and empress, and in the case where Yu Wenye was tried, this move is the crime of deceiving the emperor! Regardless of the final outcome of this case, once found out, his head will be chopped off!
Tusheer was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. When he spoke again, his voice was as low as if it was squeezed out of his throat, and he whispered: "Miss, why did you do this?"
Shang Ruyi glanced at her and said nothing.
Tushe'er's heart was pounding like a beating drum, making her unable to calm down. She thought for a while and then said: "By the way, the lady just said, who did Wang Shaoji and that Shaoqing ask? After receiving my uncle’s confession, I have to have other people’s confessions to verify that my uncle is telling the truth, right?”
Shang Ruyi nodded.
Tusheer said hurriedly: "Then,
What is my uncle's confession? Did they say it? "
Shang Ruyi shook his head.
Tusheer gasped again.
She said in disbelief: "So, the young lady told this lie without knowing at all how my uncle would answer this question?"
"Um."
"Miss, you, you--you don't want to die?!"
"..."
"What if, what if my uncle didn't give them this answer?"
"..."
"Then when the time comes, don't you, Miss, have to—"
Tu Sheer's eyes were a little red, and she grabbed Shang Ruyi's hands flat on her knees with both hands. Compared with her excitement and fear, this person had already committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and maybe she would really do it. The man whose head was beheaded was as calm as an ice sculpture, and his hands showed no signs of trembling at all.
Shang Ruyi looked down at her and said, "Maybe."
Tusheer became even more anxious: "Miss, why did you lie?"
"..."
"Why did you tell this lie?"
Seeing her eager look, Shang Ruyi became calmer. Even while calm, he laughed when he saw her eyes were red and scared like a frightened little rabbit.
She smiled and said, "Why do you think that is?"
Tu Sheer immediately shook his head angrily.
She is not afraid of anything else. Now that she has decided to follow this master, she will not back down even if it is a mountain of swords or a sea of fire. If there are any thorns and bumps in the future, she is willing to go in front and smooth them out for her.
But she couldn't imagine that Shang Ruyi would put herself in such danger.
She said angrily: "I don't know why. I only know that my uncle doesn't let the young lady go out, just to let the young lady avoid trouble. Why does the young lady have to go out into this muddy water by herself?"
"..."
"Young lady, you are putting yourself in danger because you are getting angry!"
"Putting yourself in danger? Getting yourself into trouble?"
Shang Ruyi repeated these words, and after a while, he smiled lightly and said, "Not necessarily."
Tusheer was stunned again: "What do you mean?"
Shang Ruyi smiled and then said, "I won't tell you now, lest you start to think too much and annoy others. Anyway, I have already told this lie. No matter whether the testimony is correct or not, there will be a result in the end."
As soon as he heard the result, Tusheer became more energetic and a little more nervous.
She asked, "When will the results be available?"
Shang Ruyi made the calculation and said: "Even if Wang Shaoji delays it any longer, it will take at most five or six days before this case should be adjudicated and there should be a result."
