Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 912 I just assume you won’t come back

After the man left, Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi were still sitting in the private room, drinking and eating food calmly. The waiter from the outer restaurant came up carefully and walked around twice, but did not dare to come and ask anything. The boss and others downstairs It was quieter.

However, Shang Ruyi could still hear the sound of carriages and horses coming from the half-closed window.

After the person ran away, the guards were depressed for a while, but they also knew that they still had to face the consequences. So the group of people were shocked and even more depressed, driving the empty carriage to the palace to apologize.

He also took away Su Qinglan, who was in a daze and pale.

Although she had just warned these people in danger, after all, she had witnessed everything and was involved, so she needed to go to the palace to explain to the emperor.

When Shang Ruyi got up and walked to the window, he happened to see her nodding calmly and leaving with the guards.

After the carriage had gone far, Shang Ruyi opened the window further.

Compared to the chaos just now, the noise on the street had gradually subsided at this time. Of course, it was not completely quiet. When she lowered her head, she saw some people standing on the street, gathering in twos and threes, talking in panic. What just happened.

The bodies on the ground had obviously been cleaned up by the people just now, but there was still blood on the ground, and the dazzling bright red reminded them of what had just happened.

After a while, someone came over with a bucket to wash the ground.

Seeing the water flowing on the long street stir up waves of blood, and the smell of blood was a bit pungent even in the cold air, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but frown, turned his head slightly, and saw Yu Wenye also getting up. He walked to her side and looked down with the same solemn expression.

The two of them have been quiet until now.

But this kind of quietness was filled with complicated emotions. Shang Ruyi pondered for a long time and finally said: "When I said those words to the Crown Princess, I just wanted her to continue to act as before. The more she acted, the more trouble the Crown Princess had. The plan will become more chaotic.”

"..."

"But, I never expected that she would dare to-"

After all, in order to erase the credit of the Lou family's father and daughter, she just asked Yu Dingxing to check the people in Jiang Ai's village, and also used a trick in front of Yu Wenyuan. Even if she knew that she had different intentions, she couldn't say anything.

But taking action against Pei Xingyuan is completely different from a plot to kill someone.

If found out, he will be severely punished!

She knew that Yu Mingyue was courageous and could act arbitrarily, but she really didn't expect that she would be so courageous. In order to compete for favor and power, she would really put her family and life at risk?

After hearing her words, Yu Wenye's eyebrows frowned slightly.

His eyes slowly moved from the blood that was gradually washed away on the long street to Shang Ruyi's somewhat pale cheek. He reached out his hand and touched the cold back of her hand that was leaning on the window frame. After squeezing it, he said in a deep voice. : "This matter is a bit weird. I didn't expect that someone would directly attack Pei Xingyuan."

"..."

"Even if you really want to kill someone, it's too rough."

Hearing this, Shang Ruyi also frowned.

She suddenly thought that from the beginning, this matter was Yu Wenzhen's revenge on them after the battle of Longmendu. He had almost accomplished all his efforts in one battle by seizing power and hurting people. However, with the release of Su Qinglan, the investigation of this case If he couldn't go on, could he simply kill someone to silence him out of venting his anger, or because he was worried that Pei Xingyuan would really be rescued by them again?
But, as Yu Wenye said - it's too rough.

So she whispered: "It can't be the prince..."

Yu Wenye glanced at her and said nothing. In fact, it is useless to say anything before there is definite evidence, and this matter is too weird. Although the result may not be bad, this process does require them to give a reasonable explanation, otherwise -

Yu Wenye was silent for a long time, then looked back at the food and wine on the table, and then said: "Let's eat some more to fill our stomach before returning to the palace."

"..."

"Stay a while, we all have to deal with it."

Shang Ruyi said: "Okay."

The two of them walked back to the table calmly and sat down to continue eating and drinking. On the other side, the city gate had been closed. Several groups of imperial guards soon appeared in the city to search various places and cities. For a time, the entire Chang'an City People are panicked and everyone is in danger.

After eating, Yu Wenye took Shang Ruyi back to the palace.

As soon as I walked into Suzhangmen, I saw Eunuch Yu and a group of young eunuchs walking over in a hurry. They all had serious expressions, and some of them were full of fear. It was obvious that they had just been scolded and had not yet recovered.

Eunuch Yu walked up to them, gave a simple salute, and said: "Your Highness, King Qin, Princess, you are finally back. Your Majesty invites you."

Yu Wenye said calmly: "Lead the way."

Eunuch Yu didn't say much, turned around and led them all the way inside, but not to Liangyi Hall, but to Xuanzheng Hall. As soon as the few people walked to the door, they heard a loud "boom" from inside, as if something hit the ground heavily, making the entire palace tremble.

Eunuch Yu's hand when he pushed the door froze immediately, and he hurriedly stood still. After a while, he heard no other sounds inside, and then he said carefully: "Your Majesty."

Several more low-pitched breathing sounds like a tiger's roar came from inside.

After a while, the gasping gradually subsided, and then Yu Wenyuan's deep voice was heard: "Come in!"

Eunuch Yu hurriedly opened the door and led Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi in. They saw Yu Wenyuan sitting directly in front of the Xuanzheng Hall. In the empty hall, standing on one side was Shangshu Yan Shaoxuan. Behind him, there was a minister and a minister. The principal, Su Qinglan, was kneeling on the other side. Everyone had their heads lowered and their hands lowered, and they couldn't even hear their breathing.

On the ground, a copper incense burner rolled down, and the incense ashes inside scattered all over the floor.

The two walked over, their soles immediately covered with incense ash, and walked step by step until they reached the center of the hall. Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi all knelt down and said, "I pay my respects to my father."

Yu Wenyuan sat on it half sideways, not even looking at them, but clasped one hand hard on the imperial desk, his finger bones rattling.

He spoke, but not to them, but to the others: "Get out."

Yan Shaoxuan and others did not dare to delay and retreated in a hurry. Even Su Qinglan slowly stood up. Her face was pale and her red eyes only glanced at Shang Ruyi, then she also followed him out of the Xuan Zheng Hall. Eunuch Yu was the last one to leave and closed the door.

Suddenly, there were only three of them left in the hall, and it was so empty that even the sound of people's breathing was amplified, almost deafening.

Shang Ruyi subconsciously held his breath.

Then, I heard Yu Wenyuan say coldly: "I'm finally back."

"..."

"If you don't come back, I will just think that you have gone away together and will not come back."
