Noble First Daughter-in-law

Without disturbing anyone, Shang Ruyi returned to the room.

When the door was closed, only a bit of night breeze blew through the candlestick on the table, causing the candlelight to flicker for a while, but the air was still filled with his aura, and even the little bit of charm left in her body still made her heart beat heavily.

But it seemed like nothing was the same again.

Shang Ruyi walked over and blew out the flickering candle, everything was plunged into pitch darkness, but her heart was like a mirror, she walked all the way back to the inner room and sat on the bed.

Some things became clearer in front of my eyes.

Just now, it was Eunuch Yu who came.

He was not serving the eldest princess, if the eldest princess wanted to summon Yuwen Ye to enter the palace, he should not be the one to come, but he said that the queen mother is with the eldest princess, so it is understandable for him to pass the message.

It's just - he said, Eunuch Cao went to invite Lin Shi'an.

Imperial physician order, Lin Shi'an.

In such a late night, when the eunuch accompanying the eldest princess in the palace went to ask for an order from the imperial physician, there was only one possibility—something happened to the eldest princess.

That's why the Empress Dowager stayed by her side, and asked her trusted father-in-law Yu Wenye to invite Yu Wenye.

However, when the eldest princess had an accident, she invited the imperial physician. It can be seen that she was either sick or injured.

But the eldest princess should not have fallen ill, because if she was ill, it would be impossible for her to leave the palace quietly to invite someone. All the people from the Imperial Medical Office should enter the palace and wait, and even if she really came to invite Yu Wenye into the palace Accompanied by her, you can also explain things clearly, but Eunuch Yu is a secretive look.

Therefore, it is not a disease, but an injury.

But in the palace, and at this time when the queen mother has returned to the palace, who can hurt the eldest princess?

No one can hurt her, only possible, herself.

She hurt herself.

In other words, maybe she -

Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi shivered suddenly. It was clearly a cold night, but she suddenly felt a chill penetrating into her bones. The chill was about to penetrate her heart and freeze her whole body.

She slowly fell on the bed. The familiar, soft mattress gave her an almost comforting feeling, but it was still not enough.

She thought for a while, then stretched out her hand, pulled the quilt beside her, and held it in her arms.

On it, there is still a bit of his breath left.

his taste.

It seems that he is still around.

Although now, man, has gone far...

In this way, in the chaos that was half-indulgent and like a dream, time passed little by little.

It was not yet clear, and there were already sounds of people walking around.

Shang Ruyi also knew what day it was, and the entire family had been looking forward to it for a long time, and those of them who were the masters had thousands of honors attached to them, not to mention later, I am afraid that some people stayed up all night last night. It's hard to fall asleep.

However, Shang Ruyi curled up quietly on the bed.

The faint morning light shines through the window, reflecting the somewhat empty room even more emptiness, and even every bit of her faint breathing and heartbeat are so clear at this time.

A little, a little.

As if waiting for something obediently.

But what is she waiting for?

Today, what everyone is waiting for is the final and most shocking verdict in the court, and she should have known the result a long time ago, so why is she still waiting at this time?
Even though she thought so, she still didn't move, and with the clearer and clearer heartbeat, another voice sounded more and more clearly.

It was the sound of familiar footsteps.

From far to near, from the path outside, into the courtyard gate, then through the courtyard, up the steps, and finally stopped at the gate.

However, she didn't really stay there, because the next moment, she heard the sound of the door being pushed open, and a long and hoarse cry, which seemed to spread the feelings of the night and finally ended.

Then, there was the sound of footsteps.

It was neither light nor heavy, but after the door was closed, the footsteps were more real and closer than before, almost stepping on her heart step by step, gradually, even her heartbeat followed the footsteps. The rhythm became heavier bit by bit.

Finally, it stopped by the bed.

It's Yu Wenye.

Even though his eyes were still closed, even though he was still curled up and facing the wall, the familiar aura on his body had spread silently as usual, and unconsciously, it enveloped her surroundings.

However, it was different from the hug last night.

The hug last night was real, and between the pressing of the skin, I could feel each other's heartbeat and body temperature. Even if she was in pain, she could still absorb the real temperature from the pain.

But at this moment-

The familiar breath gradually approached, but it made her tremble involuntarily.

And just when her skin was trembling slightly, and her breathing was so disturbed that she could hardly keep going, a big warm hand, with the familiar rough and heavy texture, slowly stretched out and caressed her cheek, He brushed a strand of messy hair away from her ear and brushed it behind her ear.

Then, Shang Ruyi felt that he sat on the edge of the bed.

The breath and body temperature are also approaching again.

But still, it didn't feel real, even though his hand still rested on her cheek, the back of his hand slowly moved along her ear, stroking her cool cheek all the way to her chin.

Finally, just like last night, he reached out and pinched her chin.

Slightly exerting force, trying to make her turn her head around.

Keshang Ruyi remained motionless.

The hand froze.

she is awake.

Of course he knew.

Even, what he knew was that she didn't sleep at all.

She was obviously disobedient and was waiting—but not only for him, but also for the news he brought back.

After being silent for a while, his fingers were also exerting a little force, but it was not to turn her face away, but he was slightly struggling to grab the phalanx, and there was a crackling sound from the joints, as if he was struggling invisible. .

After a while, the hand finally retracted.

Then, two hands were placed on the bed. On both sides of her body, a warmer breath slowly approached. It was the chest that hugged her all night last night and leaned down to cover her body.

Like last night, he wants to hold her in his arms again.

But he didn't.

He just looked at the little girl under him in such a dim light—last night, she had the same posture, and she was so close at hand, the distance between skin and skin. He clearly knew that he had never found out her true identity. The mind, therefore, always seemed to detect it when she was most vulnerable.

But even when she was at her most vulnerable and the two of them were closest and could only rely on each other, she refused to deliver.

So what now?

Yu Wenye took a deep breath, and that breath, like a flame, patrolled his "territory" again.

And Shang Ruyi was also trembling slightly from the heat, almost unable to hold on, the moment he opened his eyes to look at him, he heard a deep and hoarse voice in his ears——

"After today's court meeting, I will accept Chu Ruoyan as my side concubine."
