Shang Ruyi's heartbeat dropped.
But she didn't say anything, she just raised her head calmly and looked at the word "Wanggang" on the stone tablet outside the pavilion, which was reflected by the setting sun and looked like it was stained with blood.
Hearing this, Shen Wuzheng said: "You don't even know about the new emperor's accession to the throne. It can be seen that this section of the road is dangerous and the information is not available. I only found out the news after asking many people, but it is really difficult to know anything about the queen. Got it."
After speaking, he looked at Yu Wenye and said, "The second young master seems to care about the queen very much."
"..."
Yu Wenye raised his head and glanced at him, then immediately looked at Shang Ruyi beside him.
He was silent for a moment and said, "Yes."
Shen Wuzheng's eyes became deeper and his tone became more solemn: "Why?"
But this time, before Yu Wenye could speak, Shang Ruyi on the side had already whispered: "Brother, you probably don't know that the Queen has watched him grow up, and she is also very good to me."
"...?"
Shen Wuzheng turned his head to look at her with some surprise. After a while, he said, "Really?"
Shang Ruyi smiled: "Why are you lying to me?"
"..."
"So, whether he is a minister or a junior, it is his duty to care about the Queen."
Although her words relieved the situation, the way Yu Wenye looked at her was even more shadowy than before.
Shen Wuzheng's eyes gradually softened.
He said: "Since the Second Young Master is worried about the Queen's safety, when this matter is over, we can speed up the tutorial and rush back to Daxing City, so that we can know the Queen's situation."
Yu Wenye just nodded: "Yes."
Shang Ruyi then smiled again and said, "Okay, it's getting late, let's hurry up and find a place to stay."
After saying that, the three of them went down the slope together.
Shen Wuzheng went to the forest on the other side to fetch the horse he tied there, while Shang Ruyi slowly walked to the carriage, just as she passed Yu Wenye and was about to board the carriage. At that moment, Yu Wenye suddenly whispered in her ear: "I'm worried that she will -"
But before he could finish his words, Shang Ruyi immediately interrupted him: "It's okay."
"...?"
Yu Wenye frowned and looked at her, and Shang Ruyi said calmly: "No need to explain."
"As one wishes."
"Let's go first. If you wait too late, you won't be able to find a place to stay."
After saying that, she got into the carriage on her own.
Although the two of them came in the same carriage, because Shen Wuzheng had also arrived, Yu Wenye rode another horse to ride alongside him. The group of people joined up with the people they had left behind before, and then walked east together. After a long journey, we finally entered Yanyue City when the sun was setting.
This is the city closest to Wanggang Village.
Although there are endless wars in the world, and many cities have been destroyed by the war, Yanyue City has always been as prosperous as ever. This is not because the government soldiers here are effective, but because there are dozens of temples, large and small, and many monks in the city, just like a Buddhist temple. important place. Although rebels in various places continue to kill people, they still have some scruples about monks. No matter how the war outside goes, this place always enjoys peace.
Therefore, many people who pass by this war-torn place will choose to stay here. ….
After they entered the city, the sky had completely darkened, and lights everywhere in the city had been turned off early, making it almost impossible to see them. They walked for a while holding torches, and finally found a temple as a place to stay. After a brief conversation with the abbot and the monk, several monks took them to a dormitory behind the temple to stay.
Shang Ruyi and Yu Wenye were naturally arranged in the same room.
The monk who brought them over put down a basin of hot water and some utensils, and then said: "You two, please rest early. The young monk resigned."
After that, exit the dormitory.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Shang Ruyi stood in the middle of the room and turned around subconsciously
After taking a look, he saw Yu Wenye standing at the door, closing the door with both hands, and then slowly turned around to look at her.
The air suddenly became a little weird.
In fact, even if they were not alone together along the way, they were relatively calm. Especially after the trip to Songzhou, the two of them had normal conversations. But at this moment, when the two people looked at each other, there was an indescribable feeling of tension spreading between them.
Shang Ruyi subconsciously looked away.
She wanted to go inside, but found that the dormitory was very simple. Except for two futons outside for people to rest and sit on, there was only one bed inside.
Moreover, this dormitory is too small. Yu Wenye's tall body standing at the door seems to have filled half of the room, and his aura diffuses, almost filling the entire dormitory, making Shang Ruyi feel confused The illusion of nowhere to escape.
Could it be that - they are going to sleep together on the same bed tonight?
Just thinking about it made her feel as uncomfortable as needles pricking her heart.
What made her even more uncomfortable was that even if she turned her eyes away, she could feel the gaze of another person in the room looking at her. There was an indescribable heat in the tenderness, and this feeling was so familiar.
The last time, two people faced each other in the temple dormitory...
She wanted to forget, but some memories felt like needles sticking into her heart, taking root, unable to be removed, and causing her constant pain.
She felt a little restless, especially when she was next to this person, so she said softly: "I want to go out for a walk. You, please rest first."
After saying that, he passed him and prepared to open the door and go out.
But just when her hand touched the door, another hand suddenly reached out, grabbed her wrist, turned her around in a circle, and pressed the door hard. Shang Ruyi frowned and was about to struggle, but was held tightly by a hot body that pressed forward.
As soon as he raised his head, he met Yu Wenye's dark eyes.
He stood in front of her, clasping her arms with both hands, as if holding her whole body between his body and the door, making her unable to move.
Shang Ruyi's heartbeat was a little fast, but there was no expression on his face. He just said calmly: "What are you doing?"
Yu Wenye's eyes were cold, but there seemed to be a little flame burning deep in his pupils.
He said: "Are you angry?"
"..."
Shang Ruyi found it a bit funny.
But immediately, she felt that even the emotion she found funny was a little funny. So he sighed, looked at him and said, "I didn't."…
Yu Wenye said: "If you say so, it means there is."
"..."
Shang Ruyi felt speechless. It is true that although Yu Wenye is not a talkative person, it does not mean that he cannot speak eloquently. On the contrary, if he wants, his words can be sharper than his sword. What's more, if he can't say it, he can still take action directly, just like the situation between the two of them at the moment - no matter what, he can't get the upper hand in front of him.
So she sighed and said feebly: "Yu Wenye, if I am happy or angry, that is my own business."
Yu Wenye looked into her eyes: "So, you are angry."
"..."
"Is it because I mentioned the queen?"
"...!"
This time, Shang Ruyi failed to control himself.
She frowned, as if she had been stabbed in the heart again.
But this time, her subtle changes were clearly captured by the close eyes. A look of understanding appeared on Yu Wenye's face. He raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "It is indeed true."
"..."
Shang Ruyi bit her lower lip, feeling that she was embarrassed again at this moment, but she immediately took a deep breath, raised her head to face him, and said calmly: "I just don't want my brother to worry about me."
"...!"
Yu Wenye frowned: "What?"
Shang Ruyi said: "You should be able to see that my brother is a very keen person.
, not only in the big things that your man is good at, but also in some small things, he is also very careful. Ever since I was little, he has been the person who cares about me the most. If I am a little unhappy, even if I haven't noticed it yet, he will know it before me. "
Yu Wenye said nothing, his brows furrowed even more.
He said: "So, you helped me speak in front of him, and also helped me - 'cover up,' were you afraid that he would find out?"
Shang Ruyi sighed and said, "That's right."
"Really?"
Yu Wenye narrowed his eyes slightly: "What do you mean?"
Shang Ruyi gave a bitter smile and said: "When my uncle and the others were exiled, I made that condition when I begged you to send someone to help me rescue them. I will not prevent you from meeting your sweetheart. Not only will I not , I can also help you cover it up."
"..."
"It's just that at that time, I made the wrong person."
"..."
Speaking of this, until now, she still felt a little ridiculous, so she really laughed. But with this smile, she did not dare to face Yu Wenye again, and just buried her face deeply.
His eyes were hot, as if something was about to drip.
After struggling for a long time, she finally calmed herself down and continued: "But no matter what, my promise is still valid. Besides, this time, you went south to Jiangdu Palace to save my life. It's better than before when you sent someone to follow me." Go save my uncle and aunt and pay more. I, I will-"
"Shang, Ru, Yi!"
Yu Wenye interrupted her words word by word, almost gritting his teeth.
These gritted words also shocked Shang Ruyi. She subconsciously raised her head and found that the cold eyes in front of her seemed to be a little red at the moment.
He is angry...?
Looking back, although there were many emotions between the two of them, she seemed to have never seen him angry. The only time she felt that he seemed angry was the last time when she offered to cover up for him and Princess Crescent Moon. In exchange for sending someone to help him rescue the Shen couple.
But this time——
She felt the body next to her was hot, as if there was a fire burning in his body. Not only was it about to burn away his sanity, but the fire seemed to be about to burn her own body as well.
Shang Ruyi suddenly panicked and struggled subconsciously: "You——"
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. .
