Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 948 I miss you...

Seeing that Shang Ruyi was a little distracted, Tu Sheer whispered: "Princess, what's wrong?"

"Uh?"

Shang Ruyi suddenly came back to his senses and immediately shook his head in a covert manner: "It's nothing."

Tusheer blinked. After all, she had followed Shang Ruyi since she was a child, and they were very familiar with each other. She could clearly see the deep sadness in Shang Ruyi's eyes just now, but she said "nothing", so she was not okay. When he asked again, he just said softly: "The princess has been focusing on the emperor's affairs for the past two days and has not had a good rest. Why don't you take a nap for a while, and I will take your highness out to play."

Shang Ruyi was silent for a moment and nodded: "Yes."

So, Tusheer picked up the little Yuanzi who was shaking the rattle loudly and walked out. Shang Ruyi smiled and looked at her son's happy appearance. It wasn't until they walked out of Qianqiu Palace that the smile on her face slowly faded. fade away.

A deeper sadness than before came to my heart.

She knew that she shouldn't think about him, not only because she and him had ended long ago, or in other words, had never started, but also because now she should be more careful and cautious than ever before, thinking about him, even if she just thought of him. , is a very dangerous thing for oneself.

Shang Ruyi stood up and walked to the inner hall. He threw himself on the bed with some exhaustion and buried his cheek deeply into the pillow.

It has been almost half a month since Yu Wenye left.

The scent of him on the pillows, bedding, and even the few clothes he left behind was almost gone. It was as if there was a huge emptiness in his heart, and the Qianqiu Palace was also so empty.

While half asleep, Shang Ruyi murmured: "I miss you..."

……

Time flies by very quickly, and it’s April in the blink of an eye. The weather has been very good since the beginning of spring, and the flowers in the inner courtyard are blooming one after another, attracting bees and butterflies, which is very lively.

But at this time, Shang Ruyi calmed down. On this day, he put aside the four treasures of his study and started practicing calligraphy.

In fact, before she got married, she liked writing because writing can calm her mind. However, since she got married, she has hardly lived a peaceful life. She was either dealing with the wind and rain in the court or going out to fight with Yu Wenye, so naturally she couldn't calm down. , this calligraphy has been neglected for many years, so that when I picked up the pen today, I felt a lot unfamiliar.

After finally writing a piece of paper, she looked at it and muttered silently: "How can I say that I have no clothes and share the same robe with you..."

By chance, Tu Sheer came over with tea and said with a smile: "My lady's handwriting is much better than before."

Shang Ruyi knew that she was trying to flatter her, so he asked deliberately: "Where is the best place?"

"Um……"

Tu Sheer rolled his eyes and said, "Miss's words are much more powerful than before."

Shang Ruyi laughed and said angrily: "That's called vigorous. What does it mean to be powerful? You don't understand, so don't talk nonsense, so as not to make people laugh. Besides, my word is also called powerful, right?"

Tu Sheer could only stick out her tongue when she told her.

Shang Ruyi asked her to put the calligraphy aside. He turned his somewhat stiff wrist, spread out another piece of snow-white rice paper, and began to write another poem with soft brushwork——

The katydid feathers are flying and flying. The descendants of Yi'er are vibrating.

The katydids are feathered and dying. The descendants of Yier are like ropes.

The katydid feathers are bowing to each other. The descendants of Yier are hibernating.

... Just as she was writing more and more smoothly, there was suddenly a pattering of footsteps outside, as if someone was walking into the yard.

Shang Ruyi raised his head and took a look. Tu Sheer immediately went out and came back soon, with a helpless smile on her pretty face and said: "Princess, please go out and have a look, someone else has brought gifts."

Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi frowned and said, "What do you want me to see? Why don't you retreat quickly?"

Tu Sheer smiled bitterly and said: "Old Madam Qiao Guo and Madam Pingnanhou are still offering me gifts. I dare not retreat."

"..."

Hearing this, Shang Ruyi said nothing, put down his pen, stood up and walked out, only to see two little eunuchs who helped move things over standing under the eaves, smiling and saluting Shang Ruyi: "Princess."

Shang Ruyi nodded and saw the table next to him was filled with gifts.

There were several pieces of brocade, which seemed to be of rare fresh colors, a pair of phoenix hairpins neatly placed in the brocade box, a finely carved white jade statue of Guanyin, and several baskets of tangerines with a faint sweet fragrance.

Shang Ruyi couldn't help but said: "Why are there so many?"

One of the young eunuchs said with a smile: "The two ladies originally wanted to come over to see the princess, but they heard that the princess had been feeling uncomfortable for the past two days, so they stopped coming and asked the slaves to bring the gifts. If the princess didn't have anything else, At the command, the slaves retreated."

Shang Ruyi winked immediately.

Tusheer, who was beside him, had already prepared a handful of money. He walked over and gave him two. The two young eunuchs kowtowed and left happily.

Shang Ruyi looked back at the table and sighed deeply.

Tusheer smiled and said: "Princess, they can really think of a way."

Although Shang Ruyi didn't go out these days, not only Chu Ruoyan came to the door, but also those who gave gifts.

Ever since Yu Wenye led the troops to the expedition and learned that the emperor had given Xiao Yuanzi the name "Yuan Qian", the ministers in the court had keenly smelled something, and they all started to get ready to take action. It's a pity that Yu Wenye left Chang'an. No matter how they tried to find a way, it was hard for the foreigner to directly enter the palace to meet Princess Qin. Although some people also sent gifts, as long as they were given to the King of Qin, Shang Ruyi regarded them as His Highness the King of Qin. Since they were not there and it was difficult to deal with them, they were all sent back.

These people began to think of other ways.

As a result, the ladies who had been in contact with Shang Ruyi, or even just met her once, began to walk to Qianqiu Palace. Even several concubines from Yu Wenyuan's harem came to sit there from time to time, tease Xiao Yuanzi, and talk about intimacy. words, and the direction of their gift-giving also changed to Shang Ruyi.

It would be difficult for Shang Ruyi to return these gifts.

After all, if the water is clear, there will be no fish. Even if Yu Wenye can fight again, he will still need someone to speak for him in the court. This kind of wooing is not only from him to others, but also from others to him. Shang Ruyi had returned all the generous gifts before because he didn't want to be too obvious, but the courtesy exchanges between ladies did not need to be so strict.

This can be regarded as releasing her attitude.

It’s just that it’s out of season and there’s no reason for it. As Princess Qin, she can’t accept gifts from others in vain, so after accepting the gifts, she will check out some things from the warehouse, which are always more valuable than the gifts sent by others. , as a return gift.

After going back and forth, she also suffered a lot.

So when I saw this today, I couldn't stop complaining, but the things had been delivered and of course they couldn't be returned. I could only tell Tushe'er, "Call Wuxue and the others to come and move all these things into the warehouse. Then bring over the list." , I’ll see what I can get back.”

Tusheer responded with a smile, turned around and went down.

It was only after a long time that Wuxue and Chang Wan arrived late. Shang Ruyi wrote two more pieces of paper and put them aside and asked, "Why did it take so long?"
