Noble First Daughter-in-law

At this moment, the wind stopped.

The entire long street fell into a dead silence where one's breath was suffocated, and even one's heartbeat stopped.

I just don't know if it was because of the "Miss Yu" or because of the sentence - "The real origin".

I don't know how long it took before Shang Ruyi heard a chuckle from inside the carriage, but this time, the laughter no longer contained the confidence that everything was under control and the arrogance of being superior when facing ants, but was mixed with There was a trace of sadness and helplessness that was not easy to detect, but she clearly felt it.

After laughing, the man said, "What did you call me?"

Shang Ruyi raised her chin slightly, and repeated calmly and clearly: "Miss Yu."

The other party chuckled again: "If you are well-informed enough, you should know that Madam Yu has brought Miss Yu back to her mother's house because of the plague in the city."

Shang Ruyi smiled and said, "Of course I know that Madam Yu and Miss Mingzhu have already left."

"Oh?"

"So my name is——Yu, big, small, sister!"

She word by word, especially accentuated the sound of the word "big", and this word, like an invisible hand, instantly grabbed the other person's throat, making that person unable to say another word.

But Shang Ruyi didn't speak any more, just looked at the carriage quietly, as if waiting for the other party's reaction.

After a long time, the voice sounded again.

But this time, the light and melodious voice was even more hoarse and deep, as if it was forcefully squeezed out from the choked throat, and said: "How do you know?"

Shang Ruyi smiled faintly.

She said: "Actually, I didn't know it at first, because you are indeed very cautious; but no matter how cautious you are, there is still no way to appear alone, so whether you are in Dayan Temple or outside the Hanguang Gate, I can see you." The shadow of General Zuo Xiaowei."

"..."

"And I am a little concerned about people's faces."

"..."

"I thought, since I feel that a person is mean-spirited, and people around me also say that this person is mean and ungrateful, has this person really done anything heartless and ungrateful?"

"..."

"Plus, my first time with Miss—"

Having said that, Shang Ruyi paused for a moment, her face trembled a little imperceptibly, but she still took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and said in a deep voice: "The meeting is at the foot of Banyan Temple Mountain. on a river."

This time, Shang Ruyi clearly heard the voice of the other party gasping for air.

And this proved once again that her guess was correct.

So, she pursed the corners of her lips and continued, "So, I sent someone back to Luoyang, and tried to find out if there was anything related to the people of the Zuo Xiaowei Army near the Banyan Temple. Let me find out!"

The other party took another deep breath, and his voice was a little deeper: "Oh? What did you find?"

Shang Ruyi said: "I found out that more than ten years ago there was a young man who practiced martial arts since he was a child. He was smart, studious, and ambitious. Even though he was married and his wife was pregnant, he refused to take care of him at home Wife and children, because he wholeheartedly wants to make contributions and become a master.”

"..."

"So, he left home and his pregnant wife, and went to Daxing City to seek a way out."

"..."

"Later, he actually found a way out—he joined the Zuo Xiaowei Army, and because of his meritorious service several times, he was valued by the commander. In the end, the commander betrothed his daughter to him."

"..."

"In order to cling to the powerful, this man wrote a letter of divorce and divorced his wife without any hesitation. The reason was that he had nothing to do. Because his wife only gave him one daughter, which is the opposite of a For a man who wants to have a son to inherit the family business, this reason seems to be enough."

"..."

"Later, this man was indeed on the rise and flourished; but his wife and daughter were poor and struggling to survive; especially his first wife, who was given a divorce letter just after giving birth, almost died of panic, even though she survived. The root cause of the disease has been lingering on the sick bed all year round. The mother and daughter can only rely on the kind people nearby and do some needlework to eke out a living. But in the end, the original wife still did not survive the age of 40."

"..."

"As soon as she left, her daughter was left behind, and the daughter who couldn't reach her..."

Speaking of this, Shang Ruyi could already clearly hear the heavy panting coming from the carriage, but it wasn't the pain of recalling the past, nor the torment of being ripped open.

It is a kind of entangled and complicated emotions, as if it is so entangled that people can't breathe.

Shang Ruyi continued: "Then I found out that that helpless daughter, on a certain day, accidentally, slipped, fell into the water..."

"..."

"That day was the middle of May in the 11th year of Dazhi."

"..."

"It was also on that day that I crossed the river by boat and rushed to Banyan Temple to pray for blessings, but on the way—"

"enough!"

Before she could finish her sentence, the other party interrupted with a sharp low cry. Shang Ruyi even heard the other party's slight panting more clearly, and the whole carriage trembled slightly because of the low cry just now.

It seemed that to her, that was also an unbearable and even scarier memory.

Shang Ruyi closed her mouth obediently.

She looked at the carriage quietly, although at this moment, she was only a few steps away from the final truth, but, like the frightened emotion mixed in that low cry, this emotion was also invading her, making her Exhausting all his strength, he could barely say these words, but he couldn't go any further.

She could only watch quietly.

I don't know how long it took, the other party finally calmed down and calmed down, and when he spoke again, his pleasant voice was tinged with a bit of ruthless coldness, and said: "It seems that I really underestimated you. "

"..."

"Although at that time, I almost died in your hands."

"...?"

Hearing this, Shang Ruyi frowned, and said with a cold expression, "I'm afraid I should say this."

"..."

"Miss is sitting firmly in the car at the moment, I am still standing here, I am the one who obeys the etiquette; but if I forcefully get on the car and pull you down, don't you fight hard?"

"..."

"Man is the most spiritual, knowing the etiquette and keeping the rules, and he can't do such a thing as a magpie's nest and a dove."

"..."

Probably because Shang Ruyi's words were too harsh, they had already pierced this person's heart, the person in the car suddenly sneered, and said, "You don't have to make yourself seem innocent."

"Oh?"

"If I guessed correctly, Mrs. Yuwenshao—no, at that time, you should be called Miss Shang. Why did you go to Banyan Temple? Besides praying for blessings, what else was there for?"

"...!"

Shang Ruyi's tongue froze.

A feeling like a stick in the throat welled up, Shang Ruyi opened and closed her lips slightly, but couldn't say a word, and the other party then said coldly: "If I remember correctly, shortly after that, you suddenly changed your mind, If you don't want to marry—him, marry Yu Wenye instead."

"..."

"Why...do I need to say more?"
