Noble First Daughter-in-law

"..."

Hearing his words, Shang Ruyi froze immediately.

But she didn't turn around immediately, instead she was silent for a moment, and then she turned her head slowly. Under the moonlight, that handsome face was a little deeper than that of the daytime, and even her eyes were deeper.

What he said was right.

Now that he has officially returned to Yuwen's family as the son of the Duke, there will be many opportunities for them to meet in the future. If every time it is like today-it may be okay for him. As the daughter-in-law of the Duke, Shang Ruyi may live like a year .

But she knew better in her heart that even if the truth is right, many things may not be as simple as the truth.

She thought for a while, turned around, and said calmly, "Brother, what do you want to say?"

Yu Wenzhen smiled slightly and walked towards her.

As he got closer and closer, Shang Ruyi's breathing became heavier and heavier. Even the relationship between an ordinary uncle and younger siblings should not get too close in such an environment, let alone them.

not to mention--

Facing the leisurely smile in his eyes, Shang Ruyi realized more keenly that their encounter was not as simple as "getting lost".

Since the meal is ready in the dining room, Yu Wenzhen should rush over there instead of looking at the moon here.

He seemed to be here specially to wait for him.

Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi's eyes suddenly sank, and she immediately took a step back.

Yu Wenjian also stopped immediately.

There was exactly two steps between them.

It's not too close, and it's not too far away. You can just see the expressions on each other's faces and eyes, but to see them more clearly and clearly, you need two people to go one step further—but no one wants to see each other. Know, none of them will take another step.

In such a close distance, Yu Wenjian looked down at Shang Ruyi's cautious expression, and said with a smile, "It seems that you understand your situation and its position very well."

Shang Ruyi didn't accept his words.

He only said softly: "I don't know what big brother wants to say to me, so that our future relationship will not be as embarrassing as it is now, so embarrassing—"

Hearing this sentence, the smile in the corner of Yu Wenjian's eyes deepened a little.

He said calmly: "Actually, with the wisdom of my siblings, I should understand that no matter what we say or do tonight, it is impossible to change the relationship between you and me."

"..."

"In the eyes of the world, you, Shang Ruyi, abandoned me, Yu Wenqian!"

When he said these words, I don't know if it was because Shang Ruyi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and these words seemed to suddenly become heavier several times when he heard these words.

Shang Ruyi raised his head subconsciously, but still met those calm eyes, which looked even clearer under the moonlight, but the corners of his mouth remained unchanged, as if the heavy and deafening voice just now was just his own illusion .

Yu Wenzhen continued to laugh and said: "So, we can't be as close as ordinary relatives, and from now on, no matter who I, Yu Wenzhen, marry, as long as she is slightly better than you, it will be a disaster for your Shang Ruyi; And if Fengchen has the slightest ups and downs, it will become an excuse for the people of the world to criticize you."

"...!"

Shang Ruyi's breath sank, and her pupils dimmed instantly.

She didn't expect that Yu Wenzhen was so perceptive, and he could see through people's hearts.

When she discarded one and chose the other, the good and bad of these two men, good and bad, were no longer their own business, but instead became the wisdom and ignorance, success and failure of her Shang Ruyi.

In the past, Yu Wenyuan had been wandering around all the time, and this situation was not so obvious, but now, Yu Wenyuan has gained power and is only one step away from the highest position. These two men have almost reached the pinnacle of the world. Everyone He will look at both of them, and he will also see himself.

She is successful in business, and she is destined to become the standard by which everyone judges these two men.

Thinking of this, the little warmth left in her body by the entanglement just now was completely swept away by the cold night, Shang Ruyi only felt the chill rising from her heart, and shivered suddenly.

She was silent for a long while, then said softly: "In this case, what else can I say if the elder brother keeps me here?"

Yu Wenjian smiled and said, "But all opinions are the business of outsiders."

"..."

"I have no hostility towards you."

"...!"

Shang Ruyi's eyes flashed, and he subconsciously looked up at him.

Yu Wenzhen smiled again, turned around and walked back to the pond, the night wind blew gently, although the wind was so light that he couldn't lift his light clothes, it made faint ripples on the surface of the water, It also caused the moonlight to sway, reflecting in those blue-gray eyes, there seemed to be thousands of emotions flickering.

Shang Ruyi said, "You mean—"

Yu Wenwen said: "I said, I have no hostility towards you."

"..."

"Not only is there no hostility, but I also don't want to have a rift between us because we don't have a bond."

"..."

Shang Ruyi looked at him without saying a word, his eyes were full of inquiry, and there was even a hint of disbelief in astonishment.

Is this person a Buddha?

In all fairness, even if you live in a different place, if you are rejected by him before you get married, even if the two have never met and have no emotions at all, they will definitely be dissatisfied and resentful; and even if men and women are different, they will not Being ridiculed by the world because of being rejected for marriage is more likely to affect future marriages, but how can there be no evil in people's hearts?

Isn't such a realm a Buddha?

Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi suddenly thought of the last gatha given to him by Master Xinzheng when he left Dayan Temple during the day: Those who become Buddhas seldom recite the Buddha, but they will become demons after a long time.

What is he-

Yu Wenzhen turned his head slowly, looked at Shangshang Ruyi's questioning eyes, smiled slightly, and said, "You don't believe me?"

Shang Ruyi was silent for a while, and said, "These are what big brother wants to say to me tonight?"

"..."

"In the future, no matter what outsiders think of us, we don't have to have any more suspicions, and we don't have to be more hostile because of what happened, right?"

Yu Wenzhen smiled and said, "These are indeed what I want to tell you."

"..."

"But these are just a problem."

"Oh?"

Shang Ruyi raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes flickering.

Sure enough, she also understood in her heart that Yu Wenzhen was waiting for her here suddenly tonight, so it was impossible to just say this one sentence - "I have no hostility towards you" in an open and honest manner.

But, this is just a problem, so what is he going to say next?
Shang Ruyi said: "Then, what else will Big Brother say next, Ruyi will listen carefully."

Yu Wenzhen slowly walked towards her with his hands behind his back, and still stopped two steps away from her. At this time, the sky was darker, but his blue-gray transparent eyes were under the cold moonlight. It showed a bit of strange solemnity, as if it was stained with the depth of the night.He said: "Siblings must have heard that Xue Xian led an army of 30 to march eastward, and the soldiers pointed at Daxing City. Now, they are about to take down Fufeng."

"...?"

Shang Ruyi was stunned for a moment.

She thought that Yu Wenzhen would continue to tell her about the matter between him and himself, or between him and Yu Wenye, but unexpectedly, he changed the subject and suddenly mentioned Xue Xian.

Why are you talking about Xue Xian at this time?
When Shang Ruyi was a little surprised, Yu Wenzhen continued: "Fufeng is only a hundred miles away from Daxing City. If he really takes Fufeng, then Daxing City will have no barriers in front of him. Therefore, we must send troops Going out to fight against Xue Xian."

Shang Ruyi said: "Then, so what?"

Yu Wenzhen looked at her, smiled, and said word by word: "I hope, brother and sister, you can find a way to persuade Feng Chen to give up this expedition to Fufeng."

"...!"

Shang Ruyi's pupils shook violently.

He let himself convince Yu Wenye?
This--

Normally, Shang Ruyi would have laughed when she heard him have such an idea; but facing him now, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but chuckle inwardly when she heard such fantastic words.

He actually asked himself to persuade Yu Wenye not to go out? !
Who doesn't know that this time Xue Xianbing refers to Daxing City, which is the biggest crisis for the new imperial court that has just been reborn. It is also the biggest military achievement after he took down Daxing City without bloodshed. Whoever wins it will stand out from the crowd.

Even as a woman, Shang Ruyi understands that this kind of military merit should not be handed over to others.

So, just now Yu Wenye told her bluntly in the room that he wanted to go.

And Yu Wenjian, unexpectedly——

Shang Ruyi pressed it again and again, but finally she couldn't hold it down, and sighed softly.

Yu Wenzhen raised his eyes, and those clear eyes looked at her fixedly, as if he was trying to identify how much smile was in this light sigh, but Shang Ruyi straightened his face immediately, and said calmly: "Brother, open your mouth, Ruyi Naturally, I have to obey. But this matter is of great importance, and it is a real military and national matter, and I am afraid that Ruyi will not be able to open her mouth."

"..."

"not to mention,"

Speaking of this, she looked at Yu Wenzhen with flickering eyes: "How could elder brother know that Fengchen must want to lead the army?"

Yu Wenjian smiled and said, "I just know."

"..."

Shang Ruyi's heart sank again.

Yu Wenzhen laughed again and said: "Actually, younger brothers and sisters don't need to belittle themselves. I heard before that when the second younger brother made great achievements in attacking Xingluocang, the younger brother and sister participated in the whole battle and did a lot for him. matter. Your husband and wife are united, which makes me, the eldest brother, both gratified and envious."

"..."

"That's why I came to you."

"..."

"The challenge against Xue Xian this time is not only a tough battle, but also an unprecedented vicious battle. I don't want my brother to be in danger."

"..."

Shang Ruyi didn't speak, just looked at him quietly, those clear eyes suddenly shrank at this moment, as if she was shocked by something.

Yu Wenqian also looked at her quietly.

After a long while, Shang Ruyi suddenly said, "How did Big Brother know that this would be an unprecedented battle?"
