Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 978 Grievance
Under Yuwen Yuan's gentle coercion, everyone thanked him and left Liangyi Hall.

As soon as he walked out of the hall, Shang Ruyi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and almost at the same time, Chu Ruoyan beside him also breathed a sigh of relief. Shang Ruyi turned his head to look at her, smiled and said, "Are you okay?"

Chu Ruoyan also smiled, but the forced smile seemed a little stiff.

Shang Ruyi knew that she was afraid of Yu Wenyuan, so he took her hand and walked out. When they were far away from Liangyi Palace, he felt Chu Ruoyan's cold fingertips gradually warm up and her cheeks became a little more red.

Shang Ruyi said softly: "Thank you very much this time."

Chu Ruoyan lowered her head and said softly, "Sister is being distant with me."

"No, it's not a formality."

Shang Ruyi turned to look at her and said seriously, "I understand very well that you know the pros and cons of this matter. Any mistake will drag you down and you will be doomed. You are willing to step forward to take care of Yuan Qian. I shouldn't say I am grateful, but I am indeed very grateful to you."

Chu Ruoyan looked up at her and smiled, "If you shouldn't say it, then don't say it. I understand."

Shang Ruyi smiled and nodded.

As they walked forward, Chu Ruoyan felt more and more relaxed. However, Shang Ruyi looked a little troubled and solemn, with her brows still furrowed. She recalled what she had just done in Liangyi Palace when she begged Yu Wenyuan, so she asked, "Sister, what's going on with Sun Xianyue?"

"He..."

Shang Ruyi sighed softly, and then told the story of Sun Xianyue's identity and his experience of being used by Han Yuhui when he entered the palace to perform for the Pei family. He only omitted the part that his sword dance was similar to someone else's. After listening to it, Chu Ruoyan sighed: "This is a man of character."

"..."

"But since he has been proven innocent, why won't Father let him go?"

"..."

"Just because he wanted to plead for the Pei family? But after the incident at Tangquan Palace, many people in the court also pleaded for the Pei family. Should they all be convicted together? Since those people were not convicted, why did they only hold Sun Xianyue, a commoner, captive?"

Shang Ruyi was silent for a moment, then said, "So, the reason why Father didn't let him go may not necessarily be related to the Pei family."

"...?"

Chu Ruoyan looked at her in surprise: "What else could it be related to?"

Shang Ruyi didn't say anything, and seemed to be still thinking, and his expression became more and more solemn.

The two men walked forward and first arrived at Jinyuyuan. Just at this time, Lin Shian also came here, and was ordered to examine Xiao Yuanqian.

Little Yuan Qian, who had been quiet for a while, opened his mouth wide to let Lin Shian see his tongue. His big eyes rolled around and suddenly saw Shang Ruyi walking in from outside. He was stunned for a moment, then pursed his lips, and his eyes were immediately filled with tears.

Seeing him like this, Lin Shian was stunned for a moment, turned around and saw Shang Ruyi and others, and hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Shang Ruyi didn't care about anything else and immediately walked over to hug Yuan Qian.

Just as she stretched out her hand and hadn't touched him yet, she heard a "wow" sound, and the child suddenly opened his mouth wide, two bubbles of tears actually popped out, and then he burst into tears. Shang Ruyi's heart was broken, and she hurriedly said: "Yuan Qian, Yuan Qian, mother is here."

As she spoke, she tried to reach out to hug him, but the child turned around and threw himself into Nanny Feng's arms. After crying for a few times, he turned around to look at Shang Ruyi and suddenly cried even louder with more grievance. His tears flowed down and soon wet Nanny Feng's shoulders.

Seeing him like this, everyone felt distressed and amused.

It was Nanny Feng who gently patted his back to calm him down and said softly, "Oh, little prince, you have been wronged. Little prince, you have been wronged so much. Now that your dear mother is back, you won't be wronged anymore."

As he said this, he smiled and looked at Shang Ruyi: "Princess, your Highness has missed you a lot these days because he can't see you, but he just can't say it."

Seeing the child like this, Shang Ruyi knew what was going on, and hurriedly surrounded him with everyone else, kissing and touching him. It took a long time before they finally coaxed the child into silence. The child sobbed and threw himself into Shang Ruyi's arms aggrievedly, burying his red little face in his mother's chest, refusing to look up.

Shang Ruyi smiled and caressed him affectionately.

Then he finally had some free time and said to Lin Shian, "Imperial Physician, how is Yuan Qian?"

Lin Shian had been standing by with a smile on his face. Only at this moment did he come forward to greet her and say, "Princess, don't worry. I have just inquired about the little prince's condition. He was crying and making a fuss before because he was frightened that night. Children are fickle and it is easy for them to lose their minds if they are frightened like this."

Shang Ruyi's face turned pale when he heard this: "Then what should we do?"

Lin Shian said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Princess. In this case, you just need to rest for a few days and you'll be fine. Now that Princess is back, it would be even better if she can take care of him herself."

Shang Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then, that Ding Xiang..."

Lin Shian said, "I have also investigated this matter. Your Highness did take some medicine mixed with clove powder, but fortunately the dosage was not large. I just checked and found that there were rashes on several parts of his body, but it's nothing serious. Later, I will prescribe some medicine and boil it for your Highness to take a medicinal bath for two days, and then take some pills to clear the lungs and detoxify."

Hearing him say this, Shang Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he said, "Then I'll trouble Doctor Lin."

"I dare not. I will do it right away."

After saying this, he said goodbye to everyone and went back to the Imperial Medical Bureau to get the medicine.

As soon as he left, Shang Ruyi also had to return to Qianqiu Palace. Chu Ruoyan knew that she was very tired these days, so she didn't stay any longer. When they returned to Qianqiu Palace, Lin Shian immediately sent soup medicine for Yuan Qian to bathe, and took a detoxification pill. The child became much calmer.

Seeing her son suffering so much after only two days of separation, Shang Ruyi felt so distressed that she was reluctant to let go until she coaxed him to sleep. It was only when Tusheer urged her to leave that she reluctantly left.

She went to the bathroom first and washed herself thoroughly. She didn't come out until her hands and feet were a little weak. Tusheer helped her to the bed, hugged the child and fell into a deep sleep.

I slept for almost an hour.

When he woke up the next day, it was almost noon. After sleeping for such a long time, and not eating much because he was too nervous and too excited after coming back yesterday, Shang Ruyi felt so weak that he handed Yuan Qian to Nanny Feng to feed him, and with the help of Tushe'er, he got up and washed himself, and finally he woke up a little.

Then we sat down to have a meal that was either breakfast or lunch.

After taking two bites, Tusheer said softly, "Princess, I heard that the prince went to Liangyi Palace early in the morning."
