"When I returned to Jincheng, my aunt also told me that she hoped for the best for me and hoped that I would be better than everyone else."
Cui Tingyu's eyes were red with pain, "I didn't believe it at that time. She and I have been strangers for a long time. When we bump into each other on weekdays, she won't even look at me, so how can she wish me well."
"I went to the banquet, I changed our food and drinks, I arranged secret guards, I guarded her at every step." Cui Tingyu covered her face, but she couldn't hide her sadness no matter how hard she tried.
"My aunt did meet Zhou Wanwan, but instead of helping her harm me, she put everything before others to make a way for me and cut off my last extravagant hope."
“You can’t bring your heart back when it’s gone astray.”
"That's when I realized that she didn't want to associate with me because she didn't want to taint me."
"She wanted me to be clean, safe and happy."
"Yang Shu, my body is still clean, but my aunt is dead."
"They killed her in the most horrible way."
Cui Tingyu's eyes overflowed with hatred, her nails dug into her flesh, and her hands were soaked with blood.
"She doesn't like men at all, but only if her reputation is ruined and despised by others, she won't have to be treated as a reward object to show the emperor's kindness."
Cui Tingyu spoke word by word. At the end, the resentment in her eyes disappeared, and the corners of her lips curved slightly, "I will never let go of any of these people."
"The eldest princess of Ye Kingdom can no longer write the character Jun."
Yang Shu narrowed her eyes, this was the scary thing about Cui Tingyu, she hated him, but no matter how much hatred she had, it would not make her lose her mind.
In the blink of an eye, she can adjust her emotions.
Between the two points, she walked absolutely in a straight line.
"Cui Tingyu, we are allies." Yang Shu reminded, not to let Cui Tingyu rely on him, but because he was afraid that the girl would get jealous and kill him as well.
"I know." Cui Tingyu closed his eyes.
"You can't just know, you have to remember!" Yang Shu wrung out the cloth and wiped away the tears on Cui Tingyu's face.
"Don't pretend to be asleep, but make a promise!"
"Cui Tingyu? Cui Tingyu..."
Seeing that the person's breathing had calmed down, the corners of Yang Shu's eyes twitched. He was chattering in her ear. How did she fall asleep?
If the cloth on his hand hadn't been wet, Yang Shude would have suspected that the scene just now was his imagination.
I was so emotionally moved that I fell asleep in an instant.
There is no incense in the house.
After standing by the couch and watching for a while, Yang Shu walked out lightly.
"Is there anything unusual in Wuzhou?" Yang Shu asked Pai Gow, tilting his head. Looking at the pond noodles, he sprinkled a handful of fish food.
Pai Gow shook his head, "It's in order, not messy at all."
"Go get some medicine." Yang Shu waved his hand. Cui Tingyu's medicine was taken and boiled now. After another half month, her condition would be stabilized.
When the time comes, he will send her away. Yang Shu wants to see Cui Tingyu's true style.
After feeding the fish, Yang Shu went to Fuxiang Courtyard.
In one month, the baby will be born. Liu Yun pays little attention to outside things these days and concentrates on sewing small clothes.
"It's only been a while, and there are two more items."
Yang Shu picked up the baby clothes on the table and looked at them.
"Yun'er sent it." Liu Yun looked at the small clothes in Yang Shu's hand and said.
"No wonder." Yang Shu nodded, as if that was indeed the case.
Liu Yun looked at him and said, "My needlework can't catch your eyes?"
Yang Shu raised her right eyebrow and said, "Madam, why do you say this? Every time I wear the clothes you made for me, I don't get a lot of praise."
Walking to the chair, Yang Shu took Liu Yun into his arms, "There is a blue one among the two, but the material you asked Zi'er to get, besides powder, is lotus root starch."
"We're not prepared for boys at all." Yang Shu squatted down, put his ear against Liu Yun's belly, and said warmly: "Madam, it's both male and female, don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
"I'm not worried that you won't like it." Liu Yun hugged Yang Shu's back and sighed softly, "The eldest son has to bear a lot. I hope I can love him without any scruples."
"He can be naughty and playful, and he doesn't have to live by standards."
"With you in front of you, your son will be too mediocre. He will not be able to breathe freely in this life."
"Yang Shu, a person's mouth cannot be blocked. You cannot protect him forever."
"No matter how heavy your responsibility is, those people will still compare it to the fact that the eldest son of a powerful overlord is so incompetent."
Liu Yun's expression darkened. Before the great cause was accomplished, Yang Shu was away on an expedition, and his eldest son would receive everyone's attention.
The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. When the mood comes up, there is no room for tolerance. Liu Yun really doesn't want her children to smile under the pressure every day.
"It will be a daughter." Yang Shu hugged Liu Yun, her voice a little muffled.
"I should have known..."
"Yang Shu." Liu Yun interrupted him and gently touched her belly, "I want to have a child who is connected by blood with you."
"Every time he moves, I feel indescribable joy."
"I hope this baby is a daughter, but if it is a son, I will still be happy. As a parent, it is inevitable to worry about the long term."
Looking at the small clothes on the side, Liu Yun's eyebrows became softer and softer.
"I had a dream last night. A pink and tender little girl smiled at me with a soft voice. She called me mother."
Speaking of this, Liu Yun pinched Yang's waist and was a little annoyed, "It's all your fault. If you hadn't woken me up, I would have picked up the little girl!"
Yang Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't want Liu Yun to sleep. It was almost time for dinner.
"Who does he look like?" Yang Shu sat down next to Liu Yun and took her soft body into his arms.
Liu Yun frowned and thought seriously, "I can't remember much. I just remember that her eyes were very bright and agile." Liu Yun's lips curved.
"It makes people look forward to it." Yang Shu looked at Liu Yun's belly with loving eyes.
Just thinking of the little soft baby made Yang Shu's heart melt.
The two of them chatted softly, and the room was filled with warmth.
…
…
"Your Majesty, Pan from Nanning has come to Qinzhou and will arrive in Huining County in the next two days." Pai Gow entered the study and reported.
Yang Shu raised his eyes and asked, "Are they going to have a meeting?"
In the past half month, aristocratic families from several surrounding counties have come to Huining County.
After arriving, they settled in, and so far no one has left, and no one has come to visit him.
The intention is obvious.
This is a group effort to strive for the greatest benefit.
Yang Shu sneered lightly. The aristocratic family can provide him with a lot of help, but these people like to point fingers and turn you into a puppet.
Yang Shu would rather spend more time than support them all day long.
The most important thing is that the aristocratic family has no loyalty and a dark heart. Once you lose power, he will immediately kick you away and fall out faster than turning the page in a book.
"Keep an eye on it." Yang Shu took a sip of tea, "Look at their tricks first."
Leaning back, Yang Shu tapped his fingers on his thigh, turned his eyes, and looked at Pai Gow, "They haven't finished the sandalwood bed I ordered?"
"I'll ask Fang Zhuang to urge him," Pai Gow said.
"I can rush the work, but I have to guarantee the quality."
Pai Gow smiled, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, there won't be a single wooden thorn."
Yang Shu nodded and asked Pai Gow to do it.
