Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 391 You are still a good daughter-in-law of the Yuwen family
Shang Ruyi's eyes flickered, and he wanted to explain something in a panic.

But at this moment, her throat was throbbing, and her whole body was trembling uncontrollably. Before she could even force her voice out of her throat, she heard Yu Wenye coldly say: "Do you think that I don't care about you?"

"..."

"It's the same as in Jiangdu Palace. You think I will put your life and death at risk, don't you?"

"I--"

At this time, even if he could speak, Shang Ruyi didn't know what to say.

At that moment just now, she was indeed lost, even desperate.

Also because she was cornered to a desperate situation, all her body, mind, and energy were spent in wrestling with those people, and she had no time to cover up the emotions in her eyes, so he could clearly see through her.

But when asked again at this moment, there was nothing but embarrassment.

She lowered her head and looked away, trying to avoid the question.

"talk!"

Yu Wenye raised his voice a bit, although it was still very low, but it was like a sharp sword between the two of them.

Shang Ruyi couldn't avoid it—after all, he was still holding her hand, and even at this moment, he was holding it even harder, completely not allowing her the slightest chance to evade.

Obviously, just now, she escaped from the almost airtight impenetrable situation, as if she had saved her life, but immediately, she was forced to a dead end again, and she couldn't find a way out, and she couldn't escape. At the end of the road, Shang Ruyi suddenly felt an indescribable grievance, she bit her lower lip, and looked up at him.

That glance was hot and fuzzy.

And Yu Wenye's hand froze at this moment.

She... looks like she's about to cry.

Although it wasn't the first time I saw her eyes filled with tears, nor was it the first time that she was forced to cry, but this time——it wasn't the best time.

His breath also became disordered, and he said in a deep voice, "You—"

"sorry,"

Feeling the heat in her eyes was about to come out of her eyes, Shang Ruyi lowered her head and swallowed the grievance and embarrassment that had not yet dissipated in her heart, but her voice was already stained with sobs, she could only keep saying: "I'm sorry ,sorry……"

She said these three words back and forth.

There are only these three words, but it seems that she has already said all the words that made her feel embarrassed and unable to say.

And I don't know why, it was obviously to make her feel uncomfortable, embarrass her, and make her understand that she did something wrong, but when she really heard these three words, and the crying voice mixed in between, Yu Wenye's heart seemed to be stabbed by something one time.

He gritted his teeth, trying to calm the strange pain in his heart.

After being silent for a while, he managed to recover his voice and said in a hoarse voice: "Shang Ruyi, there is no invincible person in this world, and no one can guarantee that he can deal with any situation, any difficulty. I'm happy to see you when you see me."

"..."

"But I didn't speak up right away because I agreed with what you said - you should face your own affairs."

"..."

"Besides, someone who can't even handle this kind of situation can't be my Yu Wenye's wife, let alone the Yu Wen family's daughter-in-law."

"..."

"However, you did what you were supposed to do."

"..."

"So, what should I do as a husband, I will not be short of anything, and it will not be too late."

Having said that, he looked at Shang Ruyi's red eyes again, and his voice lowered again, with a gentleness that he was not used to: "You, you did a good job."

"...!"

He was obviously trying to comfort himself, but for some reason, Shang Ruyi felt a little more sour after hearing his words.

She could only grit her teeth, desperately swallowing the inexplicable throbbing in her heart.

Then nodded gently.

When she finally calmed down her emotions and raised her head again, she saw Yu Wenyuan who was standing not far in front was lowering his head to give Xue Daotong and the others a few words—presumably it was a measure to deal with this big event. After those people were ordered to leave, he raised his head and glanced at Eunuch Yu who was on the steps.

And the other party, seemingly inadvertently, nodded slightly.

Then, he turned and walked into the Daxiong Palace.

Shang Ruyi froze in place for a moment, the suspicion that had arisen in his heart just now when he saw Eunuch Yu walking out of the hall, seemed to be a little deeper at this moment.

Eunuch Yu and Yuwen's family...

But before she could think about it, a strong sense of oppression gradually approached her. When she looked up, it was Yu Wenyuan walking towards her.

His expression was quite relaxed. Obviously, the resolution of the matter of Xiandi Bintian was for him to let go of a big stone that had been weighing on his heart these days, but his eyes were not completely relaxed. Even when he looked at Shang Ruyi, he still looked at him With a bit of dignity.

He said, "Ruyi."

Shang Ruyi's back went numb, but she still hurried forward and said softly, "Father."

Yu Wenyuan looked at her for a while, then sighed again, and said, "Since the truth is like this, why didn't you say it earlier? If you tell it earlier, Dad can also be prepared, so it won't be like this today."

Shang Ruyi lowered her head, and said softly: "This matter—it is indeed Ruyi's intention not to talk about it."

Yu Wenyuan frowned: "Why?"

Shang Ruyi took a deep breath and said softly: "If I keep telling others that His Majesty was forced to commit suicide along the way, then the rumors will not be believed by people, but will reduce their credibility. ;When I speak again in person, everyone has already made up their minds, and they will only doubt my words even more."

"..."

"The pustules are not necessarily the sooner you pierce the better. Sometimes, you need to pierce them at the biggest time to get the best results."

"..."

"So, if you want to say this matter, you can only say it once, and only at the most critical time."

Hearing this, Yu Wenyuan also nodded slightly.

He has been powerful for many years and has experienced countless things, so he naturally understands this truth better than Shang Ruyi.

And Shang Ruyi looked up at him again, and said with a smile: "Besides, Dad, you don't know all this, so you don't need to speak today."

"..."

"If——I mean, if, if Ruyi really can't get rid of the crime of being a kingslayer today, at least, she won't have to involve you too much."

"You kid—"

Yu Wenyuan frowned, although his expression was still a bit gloomy, but when he heard her words, there was still a trace of elder love and pity for her in his eyes, and said: "This kind of thing, why don't you You don’t have to carry it alone.”

"..."

"When you marry into Yuwen's family, you are a member of Yuwen's family. You can't be separated from each other, and you can't get rid of yourself."

"..."

Hearing these words, thinking back to her journey, in this half of her life, she has always experienced countless difficulties, but there is always someone who can take care of herself and protect herself—this is the way of life, which makes her go on firmly and get to where she is today.

Shang Ruyi's eyes were red, and said shyly, "Ruyi, I understand."

"As long as you know."

Yu Wenyuan sighed, but looked back at the Daxiong Palace, where the gate was closed again, and said, "You can find a place to rest for a while, the afternoon puja will still be held."

"Yes."

The two agreed, but Yu Wenyuan had already turned and walked away.

Looking at his back, Shang Ruyi felt both emotional and relaxed, but at this moment, Yu Wenye's cold voice sounded next to his ear: "You still think about your father the most."

"...!"

Startled, she turned to look at him.

But Yu Wenye looked down at her again, and said with a half-smile: "You are still a good daughter-in-law of Yuwen's family."

Of course Shang Ruyi could hear the sarcasm in his words at this moment, but just now, he was so gentle to him.

For a while, she couldn't say anything to refute, so she just lowered her head.

Seeing her almost acquiescing appearance, Yu Wenye frowned even tighter.

Just when the atmosphere between the two became a little tense, the gate of the Daxiong Palace opened again, and Eunuch Yu came out from inside. But this time, when he walked down the steps, he walked directly to Shang Ruyi. In front of him: "Ma'am."

Shang Ruyi hurriedly said, "Eunuch Yu."

After a long absence, when seeing him again, Shang Ruyi felt very emotional. After all—in the Jiangdu Palace, during those years that I don’t know whether it should be called a fantasy dream or a nightmare, it was this valet who accompanied him all the time. I reminded myself word by word, and let myself get through those days.

Just now, he even saved himself from fire and water.

Shang Ruyi said softly, "Elder-in-law, are you okay?"

"well."

Eunuch Yu looked at her with a smile, and then glanced at Yu Wenye who was beside him with a strange expression. He seemed to sense something, so he just smiled and said, "Ma'am, the Empress Dowager wants to see you."

"...!"

Although she had been prepared for such a long time ago, Shang Ruyi's heart skipped a beat when she heard what he said.

Queen Mother...

Empress Jiang...

She wants to see herself!
As Yu Wenye said, he never asked much about Chu Yang's death, because he knew that it was difficult for her to face, but he also told her that in the world, she only needs to explain to one person.

It is Empress Jiang.

It is also now, the queen mother of the Daye Dynasty!

Although I had dealt with everyone just now, that wasn't the saddest hurdle, the saddest was this hurdle!
Shang Ruyi suddenly became a little nervous, and said, "Okay, I—"

As she said that, she looked up at Yu Wenye, but saw a complicated expression on Yu Wenye's face. She turned her head to look at the backyard of Dayan Temple, and said, "You go. Me, I'm going to Jushilin."

"...?"

Shang Ruyi was a little strange—won't he go?

However, Eunuch Yu seemed to just say that the Queen Mother wanted to see him.

She nodded, and Yu Wenye didn't say anything more, turned around and walked away, watching his back disappear into the mountain gate in front, Shang Ruyi turned around, followed Eunuch Yu up the steps, and walked into the Daxiong Hall.

Inside the hall, it was a little dark.

No matter how hot the sun is outside or how noisy people are, once entering this hall, it seems that everything in the world is cut off. On the side, there is a low table, and a familiar figure is sitting behind the table.

At this moment, she looked up at herself.

The moment Shang Ruyi saw her, her eyes widened in disbelief——

"Miss!?"
