Noble First Daughter-in-law

"for example--"

Shang Ruyi suddenly held his breath, his eyes flickering under the trembling waves under his feet. After a while, he murmured: "Taiyuan."

"...!"

Shen Wuzheng's eyes flashed.

From childhood to adulthood, the way he looked at his little sister was nothing but tenderness and pampering, even in times of hardship and hardship. At this time, his eyes were naturally gentle, but when he heard these two words, there was a trace of Surprised shock.

After a while, he murmured again: "Taiyuan...?"

At this time, Shang Ruyi came back to his senses and found that he had said these two words unconsciously. He hurriedly wanted to explain something, but in a hurry, he didn't know how to speak.

After all, there were so many things that even she herself hadn't figured out yet.

Just like that, there was a brief silence between the two people. The wind stopped and the water was still, but the two pairs of eyes looking at each other were still flashing in this silence.

I don't know how long it took, but Shang Ruyi still spoke, but with a bit of hesitation: "Brother..."

Shen Wuzheng looked at her and said, "Ruyi, do you, do you know that something will happen to Taiyuan?"

Shang Ruyi shook his head.

She also understood that the pause in Shen Wuzheng's words probably also thought of Yu Mingyue's prophet. Up to now, even if they have caught this person from behind the scenes, they still haven't figured out her origin and where her ability of prophet comes from. Where.However, Shang Ruyi believed that whether it was Yu Wenye, Shen Wuzheng, or even the carefree Pei Xingyuan, they probably sensed to some extent that there was an unclear relationship between her and Yu Mingyue.

However, they all tacitly agreed not to ask questions.

But even if they really asked, Shang Ruyi didn't know how to answer, just like the silence at this moment.

Shen Wuzheng looked at her for a while and said, "Then why do you think that Taiyuan...is an opportunity for you to make meritorious deeds?"

"..."

Shang Ruyi thought for a while and said softly: "I just think that Princess Qiancheng has been weathered for a long time. Since she can write letters to come, then there must be movement in the Turks, and Taiyuan is indeed the easiest place to open this hole at the moment. The place."

Shen Wuzheng said: "But you should also remember what we planned before."

"..."

"Yu Wenxin and Yu Mingyue, they have done so many things before, just for the position of prince, but today they are tricked by Yu Wenye. They will definitely not give up, let alone give you this opportunity to make meritorious deeds. "

"..."

"What's more, this credit——"

He stopped here without continuing, his gentle and cold eyes flashed with a dangerous light, and Shang Ruyi completely understood it at this moment.

After all, with Yu Mingyue's knowledge and means, if she kills them again, it will only be more dangerous than the huge rock in the valley and the plague in Fufeng, but they have nothing to do with the future. Known.

If you have the heart to think about this credit, you may not have the life to take it.

Shang Ruyi was silent for a while and said softly: "However, if we don't win huge military achievements, we will have to stay in the palace and be controlled by others."

No matter what, military merit is an important means for Yu Wenye to break out of the tight encirclement.

"..."

Shen Wuzheng didn't answer her words immediately. He just thought about it quietly for a long time, then looked up at her and said softly: "I'm not worried about this now."

"...?"

Shang Ruyi glanced at him in surprise.

Compared with her worries about this matter, Shen Wuzheng is a person who plans for a rainy day. He has already started to do many things before they even thought about it. For example, the treasure map of Zuo Gong's suspected tomb in Wanggang Village was reversed today. He showed such an almost lazy attitude toward something that was obviously likely to happen.

Although it was unexpected, Shang Ruyi really did not want to think too much about unsolvable things at this time. After all, she came back because she wanted to enjoy the warmth of her family and her brother's tenderness, so as to give her enough strength to continue to overcome obstacles.

So he smiled and said, "Yeah."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at the crescent moon in the sky and the moon reflected in the water, then picked up a small stone at his feet and hit the crescent moon reflected in the pond, only to hear a plop, Throwing a stone broke through the water and the sky, and suddenly the light and broken shadows shook non-stop, and ripples of laughter appeared in her eyes.

Shang Ruyi immediately laughed.

Hearing her happy laughter, a smile appeared on Shen Wuzheng's face, he shook his head and said softly: "You."

But when he looked at the moonlight that was swaying in the pool and gradually gathering into shape, his expression gradually became serious, as if he had some undercurrents of thoughts going on silently.

This night, just so quiet, and the dark tide was raging, passed away.

Although I felt that I was upset before, I was afraid that I couldn't sleep, but then I lay down on the bed and almost fell asleep as soon as I touched the pillow. When I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn.

Shang Ruyi couldn't help but blush. Although this return was not a serious return to her parents' home, it was indeed a bit shameful to sleep in like this. What's more, her current identity was no longer the daughter-in-law of Sheng Guogong in the past, but the emperor's daughter-in-law, Princess Qin. , so she hurriedly got up. Fortunately, Mrs. Yu had someone waiting outside. As soon as she got out of bed, several maids hurriedly came in to serve her.

After a while, after washing up, the family sat together to have breakfast.

Because he drank wine last night, the breakfast was relatively light, but there were several dishes that Shang Ruyi liked, and there was even a plate of carefully prepared cold sheep. It was obvious that Yu had gotten up before dawn to prepare it. No wonder he had just sat down. , and saw that her eyes were red and bloodshot.

But regardless of her fatigue, she just smiled and said to Shang Ruyi: "Eat quickly."

Shang Ruyi was half happy, but [-]% sad. She still had a smile on her face. She picked up her chopsticks and ate, then nodded immediately: "It's delicious!"

Yu smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed.

Although she was happy, she ate this breakfast absentmindedly. Either the porridge was spilled on her body, or the chopsticks were clattering on the edge of the bowl. Even Shen Shiyan frowned and said, "What are you doing? If you want to eat, just eat well." .”

"..."

Hearing this, Mrs. Yu did not speak immediately, but curled her lips in grievance.

Then he looked up at Shang Ruyi and said softly: "I don't know if there will ever be a time when the family will sit together and eat together."

Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi's heart ached.

Shen Shiyan and Shen Wuzheng also looked at each other. Shen Wuzheng glanced at his sad mother and sighed softly. Shen Shiyan heard these words as outrageous. He wanted to blame her, but he couldn't say anything harsh to his wife, so he just sighed. Said: "What are you talking about?"

"..."

"Ruyi is already married, and now she has become Princess Qin - how can she come back from time to time?"

"..."

"You say that, are you making yourself sad, or are you trying to make Ruyi sad?"

Hearing what he said, Mrs. Yu immediately stopped feeling sad. She raised her head and looked at Shang Ruyi, who also looked a little sad. She forced a smile and said, "Ruyi, don't be sad. Auntie just - just said it casually."

"..." Shang Ruyi didn't show a sad expression, but just put down her chopsticks, got up and walked to her side, then knelt down and hugged her.

She is not cold-tempered, but because she is too sensible, even though she has been doted on by her uncle and aunt and her elder brother, she seldom acted like a baby and willful. But today, she broke through the etiquette and self-restraint, and she understands the most After getting close, not only Yu Shi but also Shen Shiyan was stunned, and even Shen Wuzheng opened his eyes slightly.

Shang Ruyi leaned his face on Yu's shoulder and said softly: "Auntie, I'm not sad."

"..."

"I'm very happy. My aunt has never changed herself or looked at me differently because I got married or because I got promoted. My aunt has always been so good to me."

"..."

"And I - no matter which family I come from or which family I marry into, the most reluctant thing in my heart is my uncle, aunt and cousin. You are my closest relatives."

"..."

"I will think of ways to find opportunities to come back to see my uncle, aunt, and brother more often."

Hearing what she said, Ms. Yu suddenly beamed, but Shen Shiyan on the side shook his head and said: "Ruyi, don't make any decisions. Princess Qin, and the young lady of the Duke's Mansion, seem to be only two days behind in their skills, but the rules There is a huge difference between responsibility and responsibility.”

"..."

"Don't tire yourself."

Shang Ruyi understood clearly that the tiredness he mentioned was not tiredness from overwork, but tiredness from involvement.

As the princess of Qin, she made a mistake in her travels, which was indeed very different from the behavior of the young lady of the Duke's mansion. This was what Shen Wuzheng reminded her again yesterday.

Shang Ruyi smiled and said, "Ruyi understands."

But it was a fact that she couldn't let go of the Shen family, so opening a mansion and building teeth was a prerequisite.

With the power to control yourself, you can reunite with your loved ones and protect them.

The prerequisite for opening a mansion and building a tooth is——

After saying a few words of intimacy to Mr. Yu, Shang Ruyi returned to his seat and sat down again. When he raised his head, he met Shen Wuzheng's pure eyes. At this moment, a little light seemed to flash through his eyes. .

Neither of them said anything, and the family just finished their breakfast happily.

Then, they sat around and drank tea again.

The fragrance of tea is long, and as the light smoke from the cup gradually dissipates, it is thick in the air. Shang Ruyi takes the tea cup from Shen Wuzheng's hand and takes a gentle sip. The slightly bitter tea soup enters his throat, and there is a slight feeling at first. It's astringent, but after swallowing it, a sweetness immediately spreads from all parts of the mouth, and it seems to be injected into the heart along with the tea for a moment.

Shang Ruyi felt so comfortable that he sighed softly in his heart.

It's not a bad thing if this is the start of a long day of work and the bumpy life that follows.

However, when she finished sipping the taste and opened her eyes again, she saw Shen Shiyan looking at her again. In fact, from last night to just before breakfast, he had this look in his eyes, but he always seemed to be worried about something. Didn't say much.

But this time, it's time.

So Shang Ruyi smiled and said, "What does uncle want to say to me?"

Shen Shiyan was startled for a moment, then raised his head to look at her. His eyes were a little more complicated. After thinking for a long time, he said softly: "As you wish, merchant——"

As soon as these two words were mentioned, the sweet taste on the tip of the tongue immediately turned into bitterness.

Even the sweet spring in his heart seemed to dry up at this moment, and Shang Ruyi's smile involuntarily froze.

Before she could say anything, Mrs. Yu had already said angrily: "Why bother mentioning that family?"

Shen Shiyan frowned and glanced at her, and said solemnly: "That family, that family is still a businessman after all. Wherever Ruyi goes, even if she enters the palace and becomes Princess Qin, she is still Shang Ruyi."

"..."

"My brother-in-law and my little sister are still her parents after all!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Yu was angry, but she was speechless.

In fact, she knew there was nothing to say.

Although the world has changed and many women have the right to marry independently, even before Emperor Congwen, all dynasties used filial piety to rule the world. When Shang Ruyi was kicked out of the business, they could use all kinds of excuses, but they did not go home for more than ten years. Paying homage to your parents is just unfilial.

Moreover, family status is one of the most valued identities in the world. Her "unfilial piety" will not only affect the reputation of her parents, but also affect the Shen family who raised her and make them criticized by the world.

Another point is her current identity.

Now she is already the princess of Qin. Before Yu Wenyuan's concubine became a concubine in the harem and Han Wang Yu Wenjian got married, she was almost the top woman in this emerging Dasheng Dynasty, and everyone's eyes would be focused on her.

If people know this, and then spread the word——

Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi suddenly shuddered.

Looking at Shen Shiyan with a heavy look of worry on his brows, Shang Ruyi also understood why he had been looking at him like that since last night. He must have thought of this and just wanted to spend the day easily. , happily reunited with her family, but after the reunion, when she left the Shen family, she was Princess Qin, and she could not make any mistakes in every move she made.

As his uncle, he couldn't let her make mistakes.

Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi said softly: "Uncle, Ruyi understands what you mean."

"..."

"I will handle this matter properly."

Shen Shiyan nodded.

Shen Wuzheng on the side remained silent, and after hearing her last words, he only sighed softly.

A few people sat and chatted for a while. Then they looked at the sky and saw that it was getting late.

Although they were reluctant to leave, they also knew that it was time for Shang Ruyi to go home.

After all, the new emperor asked them to move into the palace no later than today. If they go back later, they will enter the palace even later. I am afraid that they will make another mistake by then. So Shen Shiyan said to Shen Wuzheng: "Hurry up and call someone. Prepare the carriage to take Ruyi back to the Duke's mansion."

As soon as these words came out, Yu's eyes immediately turned red.

Shang Ruyi hurried over to comfort her, and Shen Wuzheng was about to turn around and go out to make arrangements. But just as he was about to go out, he saw a young man walking in and reporting: "Master, Madam."

Shen Shiyan asked: "What's the matter?"

The boy said: "The carriage of the Duke's Mansion has been waiting outside the door for a long time."
