Noble First Daughter-in-law

Just when the two people faced each other silently, but there seemed to be some broken voices echoing in each other's ears, even a little deafening, a very light footsteps slowly walked towards them.

It also shattered the silent silence.

Yu Wenye's somewhat bewildered expression suddenly lifted, and immediately regained his previous calm and sternness, turned around, and bowed his hands to the tall and handsome figure: "Brother."

"Second brother,"

Walking to his side, he looked at him with clear eyes, and passed across Shang Ruyi's pale face without any trace, and finally a faint smile appeared on Yu Wenzhen's way, saying softly: "Your name is wrong."

"...!"

"...!"

These words shocked the hearts of the two of them again.

But immediately, Yu Wenye smiled, with a bit of sarcasm in his smile, and said: "Yes, it was wrong."

After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands to Yu Wenqian respectfully and bowed again: "Brother Huang."

The smile on the corner of Yu Wenzhen's mouth deepened a bit. He looked Yu Wenye up and down, as if he saw his brother clearly for the first time, and in the clear appreciation of his eyes, he also added a bit of unspeakable emotion. Sighed: "I have been away from home for many years. This time I gave up my practice and came back. I knew that with my second brother's intelligence, I must not be the same as when I left home. How it looks today."

"..."

"Be brave and resourceful, able to bend and stretch, and do what a man does."

"..."

"Brother Yu, it's—"

Having said this, he smiled slightly and said, "I'm very surprised."

Yu Wenye also looked at him, with a smile on his face all the time, and said: "After three days of farewell, you should look at him with admiration. Besides, the emperor's brother has practiced for several years, and he can get the enlightenment of the real dragon, and the foolish brother can't waste his time in vain. .”

"well said."

"..."

"Today, the father ascended the throne and took his karma to replace him, but the world is divided and the flames of war will not go out. We still have many difficulties to face. It depends on whether the second brother can use today's situation to break the chaos of the world."

"of course."

Yu Wenye raised his head slightly, looked at the pair of eyes that seemed gentle, but had a different kind of brilliance in the gentleness, and said word by word: "I will also wait and see how to determine the true dragon revelation of the emperor brother." The situation of the world."

Yu Wenzhen looked at him and smiled.

The two people looked at each other like this. Although neither of them spoke, their eyes, one hard and one soft, flickered slightly, as if there was a sharp edge hidden in them.

After a while, there were more people coming and going around, and many complicated and cautious eyes fell on the three of them, Yu Wenzhen said: "Let's go, I still have some things to do, you should go back to the Duke's mansion." , Father means that we will all move into the palace by tomorrow at the latest. After all, the enthronement ceremony is scheduled for the sixth day of the lunar new year, so time is tight."

"Yes."

After saying that, Yu Wenzhen turned his head again and smiled lightly at Shang Ruyi, who had never said a word, but his mind was already changing thousands of times at this moment. At this time, his eyes were more complicated and deeper than before, and then Turned and left.

Yu Wenye also walked up.

Just when he was about to leave, Shang Ruyi called him again, but this time, her voice hesitated: "...Feng Chen."

Yu Wenye's footsteps stagnated again.

But this time, he didn't stay too long. He turned around calmly, with no emotion of joy or anger on his face. In a daze, Shang Ruyi seemed to see the man who met him for the first time. He was not disturbed by any outside world, cold and rational. It looks like a sharp young man with a completely unsheathed sword.

Even when he spoke, his voice had the coldness of a weapon: "Don't force yourself."

"..."

"However, between us, we don't have to be born like this just because our father has accomplished his great career."

"..."

"You should still call me 'Second Brother'."

He slowly turned his head and said with a faint smile: "I should still have some value..."

After he finished speaking, he left without looking back.

Shang Ruyi was stunned for a moment, looking at his back, he couldn't recover for a long time.

value……?
What does he mean by value?
At this time, Shang Ruyi was not only confused, but even the memories that had been numb due to excessive shock were beginning to stir up at this moment. She vaguely recalled that just now Yu Wenye and Queen Mother Jiang were talking at the door of the side hall, and Queen Mother Jiang would When Chu Ruoyan entrusted it to Yu Wenye, he seemed to have said something——

She has always been sincere to me.Also useless.

Just now, Shang Ruyi waited quietly inside, deliberately providing them with a moment to be alone and say goodbye, and it was only at this moment that she came back to her senses.

Yu Wenye's words were not only disheartened, but also harsh.

Linking these two passages together, Shang Ruyi felt even more unspeakably uncomfortable, as if an invisible black hand was tightly pinching her heart, not only making her heartbeat sluggish, but her breathing difficult , There is even a feeling that even the way ahead is blocked by this black hand.

Why, so?
For no reason, why did Yu Wenye say the word "use" to Empress Jiang, and the word "value" to himself?
What was he thinking about?
The troubles in her heart were full of twists and turns, but at this time, it was no longer the time for her to think quietly. Seeing that Yu Wenye was about to walk down the hall, Shang Ruyi could only follow up as soon as possible. After a while, she passed the familiar Yes, in the future they will only be more familiar with the silent corridor, they exit the Hanguang Gate, and board the carriage that has been waiting at the gate of the palace.

The journey was rickety, but Yu Wenye kept his eyes closed and lips closed, and didn't say a word until the carriage stopped at the gate of the Duke's Mansion.

Yu Wenye opened his eyes and immediately got out of the carriage.

As soon as you stand still, you can feel the silence around you—a few days ago, because of the impending big event, there was almost an endless flow of people coming and going to the Duke’s Mansion, even in the middle of the night, but today, there are very few people, not because these people are unwilling to come. , but because the major event has been accomplished and the pattern has been set, and if you come to the door again, it will become a flattery instead.

Besides, Sheng Guogong can still curry favor with him, who has ever heard of currying favor with the emperor?
So at this time, there was no one at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, and even the gate was closed tightly.

But there was a familiar figure, tall and tall standing in front of the huge stone lion outside the gate, wearing a blue-gray long gown with a certain awe-inspiring air, even the eyes that slowly lifted up and stared at Yu Wenye coldly , which also adds to the coldness.

It's Shen Wuzheng!

Although he didn't know why he appeared at this time, and he was standing alone at the door of the Duke's Mansion, but when he met those eyes filled with restrained wisdom, Yu Wenye's breath couldn't help but sink. When the two people's eyes met, It even seemed to strike out an invisible spark.

Until two surprise voices sounded from behind the two——

"Brother? Why are you here?!"

"Fengchen, you are finally back!"

The eyes of the two people immediately looked behind each other. On the one hand, Shang Ruyi jumped out of the carriage. Although there was still some confusion on his face, when he saw Shen Wuzheng, he immediately beamed with joy and smiled all over his face. On the other side, Pei Xingyuan popped his head out from behind the stone lion, and when he saw the two of them, he jumped out joyfully, and greeted warmly: "His Royal Highness, Qin Wangfei!"

This title made Shen Wuzheng frowned slightly.

Yu Wenye's breathing also seemed to sink.

But he immediately walked up with Shang Ruyi, first looked at Shen Wuzheng solemnly, and then looked at Pei Xingyuan: "You guys are here..."

"Of course I'm coming!"

Pei Xingyuan had a natural expression on his face: "Hey, other people don't come to celebrate in order to flaunt their nobility, but who am I--I'm a real celebrity, I don't care about those gossips. Besides, brother, you have to be alone. Dao, how can we people not follow up to heaven, or are we worthy of these injuries on my body?"

"..."

"Look, look at my hand, the scab just formed two days ago, it hurts!"

Yu Wenye's face had always been gloomy, as if he had put on - no, more like it had turned into a hard and cold mask. Until this moment, listening to Pei Xingyuan's complaints and watching his pretentious approach, it seemed that he had just become infected. There was a bit of human fireworks.

Even the cold look in his eyes eased a lot.

After looking at Pei Xingyuan for a long time, he said in a low voice, as if talking to himself: "You... haven't changed, it's fine."

"Look, and on my wrist—"

Pei Xingyuan was still complaining to his heart's content. Hearing this, he blinked his eyes and looked up at him in a daze: "What did you say?"

Yu Wenye shook his head: "It's nothing."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Shen Wuzheng again.

Different from the previous few meetings, although Shen Wuzheng has been assisting him since the meeting in Wanggangzhai—or, in other words, advising him, and he also completely trusts him, telling him the difficulties he is facing one by one. They were almost obedient, but even so, both of them understood that they always had a secret, unspeakable hostility towards each other.

At this moment, this hostility has spread from the heart to the eyes.

At that moment just now, Yu Wenye even saw an unprecedented sharpness in Shen Wuzheng's eyes. Although when Shang Ruyi appeared, his eyes immediately turned into familiar tenderness, but the feeling of being stabbed at that moment was absolutely not his delusion.

Therefore, when they looked at each other again at this time, a hint of hardness appeared in their eyes involuntarily.

Until Shang Ruyi said: "Brother, why are you here?"

Shen Wuzheng is not a person who pretends to be lofty, but he is also a person who does not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. He made suggestions for Yu Wenye before, for Shen Shiyan and himself, and for his own ambitions. Cheng, with Shen Wuzheng's personality, he didn't want to be someone who would come to the Duke's mansion immediately.

When he heard her voice, Shen Wuzheng's eyes softened again.

He said, "I'll take you home."
