Chapter 101

"You think I care?" Gu Jinxi put both hands on the table, one hand was pressed on the page of the book and the other was rhythmic on the rosewood table, once and for all.

The round and white fingertips pressed on a word in the book.

Nguyen.

Ruan Xuchen nodded and smiled, "Yes, you are the heir of King Xuan, and your wealth is comparable to mine. Although the outside world doesn't know about it, except for mine, most of the other industries in the capital belong to you! Even the emperor doesn't know."

After tapping his fingers, Gu Jinxi's eyes were calm, and he swept across Ruan Xuchen's body without stopping. Instead, he looked at the Guqin placed on the shelf behind Ruan Xuchen, and Gu Jinxi laughed. , "It seems that you know more than what I let you know!"

"I dare not say completely, but at least, what I know is enough for me to understand you."

It was because of understanding that Ruan Xuchen began to agree with Gu Jinxi and Ruan Cailing to get close. He never fought uncertain battles, but Dingguo Palace and Xuanwang Palace were not battlefields, so he had to deal with them carefully.

"Tell me, what on earth are you here for? You're not here to take pity on me, are you?" Gu Jinxi closed the scroll with a bang, and put one hand on it.

Ruan Xuchen really wanted to laugh, he really came to laugh at Gu Jinxi, but...

"If the Third Prince is interested in Ling'er, what will you do?"

Ruan Cailing didn't see Ruan Xuchen and Gu Jinxi until dinner, and they didn't know where they were hiding. She was with Su Wanyue, and she also saw Xie Qingyuan and Ji Jingyan together. Xie Qingyuan wanted to come over the moment he saw Ruan Cailing.

But Ji Jingyan next to her enthusiastically introduced the dignitaries in the court to Xie Qingyuan, so she couldn't get away. When she recovered, Ruan Cailing had disappeared.

At this moment, Ruan Cailing and Su Wanyue were sitting in the corridor outside, "Just now Miss Sun Jiasan mentioned to me your cousin, isn't he called Cheng Xuan?" Speaking of which, Ruan Cailing hadn't heard this name for a long time.

Ever since the married family moved away, she has been busy. Things are connected one by one, and she has no time to take care of other things, let alone the married family. A group of people who just came from the countryside are trying to integrate into the capital city. Luxurious living area, but also very busy.

She didn't even think about asking Jiang Chen to inquire about the news, and forgot about the whole family.

Now, it was quite surprising to hear it from Su Wanyue's mouth. Holding a cup of hot tea in her hand, she nodded, "What's the matter? Cheng Xuan is causing trouble again?"

"It doesn't seem like a big deal for them to start a family. They should be used to it. They molested a girl from a small family. The girl hanged herself every day at home, and finally got married and gave a sum of money." Su Wan Yue said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ruan Cailing hummed, "I'm really used to it."

Tingniang and Jingshu mentioned that before the married family moved to the capital, they were always helping Chengxuan deal with this mess.

However, the people in the capital city are no more than those in the countryside, and even small households have more rules.

Being molested by Cheng Xuan, the girl's good reputation is gone, who will dare to marry in the future?But if she wants to marry Cheng Xuan, she is definitely not happy, so she can only make a fuss, cry out her grievances and call it a day.

It's not easy to get a sum of money from Chengjia. If it wasn't for Cheng Li's fear that something big would happen as soon as he took office, he probably wouldn't even give him the money, and it would be fine to send a few people over to scare him.

This is the usual means of starting a family.

"I heard Brother Ruan mentioned before that the family's house was snatched from someone else? You are very courageous! Can you do whatever you want without using a mask?" Su Wanyue stretched out her hand and grabbed a handful of melon seeds to eat. .

Ruan Cailing put the teacup aside, took out the cold jade piccolo from her waist with her backhand, and played with it in her hand.

Seeing that Ruan Cailing was really distressed, Su Wanyue advised, "Don't be too distressed, anyway, you won't see the third prince many times, so just treat it as a hush money for you, okay?"

If only it were that simple.

Eunuch Wang gave her the gift and said it was from Mu Yizuo. She was startled and subconsciously looked for Gu Jinxi, but Gu Jinxi was facing her sideways. She couldn't see any expression of Gu Jinxi, let alone Gu Jinxi. What did Jinxi think.

Could he be thinking wrong?Do you think she has something to do with the third prince?
She has been worried from just now until now, but she didn't see her eldest brother and Gu Jinxi after searching around. She thought that the two of them should have gone to discuss something, so she gave up searching and came to chat with Su Wanyue.

But I was frustrated and couldn't figure out this problem.

This is no ordinary thing!The cold jade piccolo is worth thousands of gold!
If Mu Yizuoruo gave her any jewelry, accessories, etc., she could still take it with a clear conscience, no matter whether it was sealing or other intentions, because she could afford those items.

But Mu Yizuo turned into a city when he made a move, so how embarrassed she is!
She was worried, when Su Wanyue suddenly bumped her shoulder, pointed to the front and said, "Hey, isn't that your elder brother and the elder brother you miss so much?"

Ruan Cailing looked up, and sure enough, she saw these two people walking side by side.

She immediately pinned the piccolo to her waist, got up and ran towards them with her skirt, and stopped in front of Gu Jinxi, "Where have you been?"

Seeing Ruan Cailing's appearance, frowning seemed to be very distressed, Gu Jinxi raised his hand and twisted Ruan Cailing's little nose, "I just found out that I was looking for me, and then I went to the study with your elder brother to talk about something, what's wrong? The third prince gave it to me." Don't you like the flute?"

Speaking of the flute, Ruan Cailing lowered her head and tugged at Gu Jinxi's sleeve, "Are you angry?"

Gu Jinxi laughed and said, "Why am I angry when Mu Yizuo gave you a gift, this gift is... just, do you like it?"

To be honest, Ruan Cailing likes it very much, not to mention whether this flute is precious, or whether it is really so magical that it can nourish the body and detoxify. As if looking for an answer, Ruan Cailing pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Well, I like it."

Gu Jinxi nodded, "As long as you like it."

After staying in Prince Xuan's mansion for a whole day, it was dark when everyone left. As the son of Prince Xuan, Gu Jinxi was given a lot of alcohol. Ruan Cailing left with Ruan Xuchen after seeing him being helped back by Mu Bai. Ruan Qi The carriage with Ruan Su has already left, only the two brothers and sisters are left.

"Today, you are in the limelight at Prince Xuan's Mansion." Ruan Xuchen said worriedly to Ruan Cailing.

Ruan Cailing put down the hand that opened the curtain, lowered her head and patted her fingertips, "So what? Looking at the ladies of the official family in the capital, which one has not been in the limelight? Anyway, no matter whether it is good or bad, people must remember that I am a certain person. The eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion will save a lot of trouble."

"I thought you didn't like compliments from others." Ruan Xuchen asked.

She really doesn't like it, but sometimes, malicious compliments are more enjoyable to fight back. For example, Shen Yunyun broke the dirty water today. Only when Shen Yunyun shows this side can she fight back fiercely.

If at that time Shen Yunyun just cried on her knees, didn't speak, and didn't direct the conversation to her, how could she get rid of her popularity?Can those noble girls target Shen Yunyun?

Speaking of which, what Ruan Cailing valued was never status, but everything she didn't value was more important than life in Shen Yunyun's eyes.

There is no way if we do not agree with each other.

Ruan Cailing took out the Hanyu Piccolo with his backhand. Ruan Xuchen looked at the flute in Ruan Cailing's hand. Gu Jinxi never told anyone that he was also looking for this flute, so Mu Yizuo snatched it halfway.

Mu Yizuo is too stubborn, and he doesn't know what will happen in the future.

"Like this flute very much?" Ruan Xuchen asked Ruan Cailing.

Ruan Cailing held the flute in both hands, "I like it very much, but you should take it away and return it to Mu Yizuo when you enter the palace tomorrow."

"Why?" Ruan Xuchen asked puzzled.

Ruan Cailing feels that giving gifts is also a matter of relatives and estrangements. If the eldest brother and Gu Jinxi give gifts, she will be ecstatic no matter how expensive the thing is, because it is from the heart, but if it is an unfamiliar person, the more expensive the gift, the more expensive it is. It is to give her a kind of pressure, as the saying goes, take advantage of others.

Although Ruan Cailing knew how much she weighed, she didn't have anything Mu Yizuo could use on her body. Because of this, she couldn't accept this gift for granted.

If Mu Yizuo used her to do something like he used Gu Jinxi and his eldest brother, Ruan Cailing would still consider it.

But now, forget it.

"I have no reason to accept such an expensive gift from Mu Yizuo," Ruan Cailing said.

She stuffed the flute into Ruan Xuchen's hands, and her reluctant gaze made Ruan Xuchen understand that Ruan Cailing really liked it.

"Okay." Ruan Xuchen raised his hand to press the top of Ruan Cailing's head, and rubbed it vigorously a few times, "Brother Piccolo can find a better one for you if you like it."

"Ah."

In the middle of the night, in the backyard of Duke Dingguo's mansion, in Shanyun Pavilion, there were bursts of crying.

Xie Qingyuan sat at the table and looked at Shen Yunyun who was lying on the bed and crying for a while, her face was a little irritable, but she didn't say anything.

Today, he was pestered by Princess Anyang for a whole day. As soon as he returned to Duke Dingguo's mansion through the back door, Tingfei came to send a message, saying that Shen Yunyun had been crying all afternoon, and asked him to come and have a look.

At that time, Xie Qingyuan really didn't want to come, but he still had some use for Shen Yunyun, so he couldn't be so heartless, so he had to say that he would come when he changed his clothes.

As a result, Shen Yunyun has been crying until now.

"Okay, stop crying, isn't it just that someone said a few words?" Xie Qingyuan thought it was no big deal, but it was a big deal for Shen Yunyun. Hearing what Xie Qingyuan said, Shen Yunyun suddenly raised her head Come on, staring at Xie Qingyuan with teary eyes, "Xie Qingyuan, what do you mean? You also think I am unworthy!"

Yes, you really don't deserve it!
Xie Qingyuan stared at Shen Yunyun, but finally didn't say anything, and sighed, "What can you do? Ruan Cailing's identity is suppressing there!"
