Ruan's wife is pregnant

Chapter 260 Xie Qingyuan and Shen Yunyun Meet
"What did you say? Who wants to see me?"

Shen Yunyun didn't hear clearly, and thought it was something wrong with her ears.

Holding the tray, Chu Yao said, "Son-in-law of Prince Ping's Mansion, thank you for sending me the invitation. I invite you to have a tea banquet in Baihualou tomorrow."

Baihualou!

Generally speaking, those who drink tea, watch operas and listen to music go to Yanhua Building, but everyone knows that Yanhua Building is Ruan Cailing's property, and everyone in the room belongs to Ruan Cailing.

If the two of them went, they would definitely be discovered by Ruan Cailing's people, and everything Bao Buqi said would be overheard.

Looking at the capital, it can be regarded as an interesting place, except for the Yanhua Building and the Baihua Building.

Baihualou has only been open for two years, and its business is booming. Unlike the elegance of Yanhualou, there are only storytellers in Baihualou, not even opera singers, it is clean.

But at this time, what does Xie Qingyuan want to see her for?

Could it be because of the poisoning in the border town?

"Oh, I see." Shen Yunyun responded, and threw the invitation on the table without stopping.

Ting Fei at the side glanced at the light blue invitation card on the table, and asked suspiciously, "Young Master Xie hasn't seen Miss for a long time, why did you propose to meet Miss at this time?"

"What else could it be? Xie Qingyuan didn't see me because he felt ashamed. It's the same when he sees me now. He is a person who only thinks about himself. I feel a little sorry for the condensation that stayed in Fengyue Tower."

Speaking of Ninglu, Tingfei said to Shen Yunyun, "I heard that some time ago, Ninglu sent someone to secretly send out a letter, and someone followed, saying that it was sent to Prince Ping's Mansion."

"Give it to Xie Qingyuan?" Shen Yunyun paused and looked sideways at Tingfei.

Tingfei shook her head, "No, it was delivered to Princess Anyang."

Click.

The scissors in her hand cut off the flower branch, and Shen Yunyun was stunned for a moment.

Ninglu delivered the letter to Ji Jingyan?Does this mean you don't want to live?
But it's not right!According to the domineering and domineering character of Princess Anyang, if she knew about the relationship between Ning Lu and Xie Qingyuan, how could Ning Lu still live till now?And it seems that Ji Jingyan did not disclose the matter of Xie Qingyuan and Ninglu, otherwise the city would be full of troubles by now.

She is a daughter of a thousand gold, born as a princess, well-clothed and well-fed, and has never been wronged in the slightest.

It's different from people like them who have nothing since childhood.

Shen Yunyun sneered, "I'm looking for a dead end, I guess Xie Qingyuan doesn't know it yet, just after I see Xie Qingyuan tomorrow, remind him that it is his first wife, even if it is death, it is best to die on his own." hand, otherwise how can you be willing?"

It was afternoon when Ruan Cailing and the others arrived at Beiyun Wharf in the capital, when the sun was shining brightly.

Seeing someone waiting from a long distance away, Ruan Cailing thought it was her parents who came, but after a closer look it didn't look like it.

"It's Uncle Fan."

The sun was shining outside, and they didn't want Mrs. Ruan Su to bask in it.

"Miss Shizi, you are back!" Uncle Fan waited for an unknown amount of time holding an umbrella, and Uncle Fan finally laughed as the boat gradually approached the pier.

"Uncle Fan, why are you still here to pick us up!" Ruan Cailing was helped out of the boat, and felt that Uncle Fan's palms were covered with sweat.

The weather in the south of the Yangtze River is cloudy and rainy, while the capital is always scorching sun. Although it is not yet the middle of summer, it is much hotter than in the south of the Yangtze River.

Uncle Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "Madam can't wait, she said that the young lady is coming back today, let us pick him up!"

"Mother really... let's go, go home!"

Ruan Cailing turned her head and said to Gu Jinxi, "Then you go back to the palace first, and no matter what happens, we will meet at the Yanhua Building tomorrow."

Gu Jinxi nodded, "Okay, mother-in-law must have missed you after not seeing you for so long."

"it is good."

After returning to Duke Dingguo's mansion, Ruan Su took Ruan Cailing's hand and talked for a long time, asking her how she was in Jiangnan, whether she was used to it, whether she was sick, etc. Ruan Cailing couldn't laugh or cry, what was wrong with her body? How weak is it?

Going out to play can still make parents so worried.

But Ruan Qi was not there.

"Your father recently had some matters to deal with with the yamen in the suburban county. He left before dawn and hasn't come back yet, but he knows that you and Chen'er are coming back today, so he should go home as soon as possible." Ruan Su Said.

Ruan Cailing nodded, and the yamen of the suburban county?
After taking a rest in the front hall, Ruan Cailing and Ruan Xuchen returned to their respective courtyards, the maids had already gone back to pack their things, and Ruan Cailing walked around from the garden to Sihua Building by herself.

"Is there any big news about the capital city that Jiang Chen hates the most?"

Upstairs, Qing Rui was packing her underwear, and everyone else was displaying the things she bought, sorting them out for others and for her own use.

This time Jiang Chen was left at home mainly to protect the safety of Ruan Su and Ruan Qi, and on the other hand to let him pay attention to the movements of the capital.

Half of the letters sent to them recently were sent by Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen said, "I just got the news that Mr. Xie and Miss Biao met at Baihualou, and they should still be here right now."

These two met?

Ruan Cailing was taken aback.

She tilted her head and glanced at Jiang Chen, "Why? Who proposed it?"

"The news came out from Cheng's mansion that Mr. Xie sent an invitation to Miss Biao to invite her to the Baihualou for a tea banquet. Miss Biao went to the banquet without thinking too much," Jiang Chen said.

Not thinking too much or thinking too much?

"Send someone over there to take a look."

"Yes."

After Jiang Chen left, Ruan Cailing was still sitting in the flower hall downstairs, tapping lightly on the table with her fingers, but looking at a plant in the distance, as if thinking about something.

After tidying up her things, Qing Rui saw Ruan Cailing sitting in the flower hall in a daze.

"Miss, what are you thinking?" Qing Rui asked.

Ruan Cailing came back to her senses and glanced at Qing Rui with deep eyes, "You said that Xie Qingyuan met Shen Yunyun, what is the reason?"

In fact, she already has the answer in her heart, but it needs to be confirmed.

"Come on, let's go to the attic and rest for a while."

Facing the ancestral tablet, Ruan Cailing was actually at peace in her heart. At least in this life, she was no longer at the mercy of others, nor was she deceived by people like Xie Qingyuan. She knelt in front of the tablet, and it was reasonable to say that she done.

Even at this point, her hands are covered with blood, but in order to protect the people around her, she is not afraid.

Ruan Cailing had a knee injury and couldn't kneel for a long time. After offering incense, Qing Rui helped Ruan Cailing get up.

Before he could stand still, Yue'er's voice came from outside.

"Miss is not good! The master was assassinated in the suburban county!"

Ruan Cailing staggered, and almost fell to the ground, but Xuan Qingrui supported her, and then stabilized Ruan Cailing's body, Ruan Cailing panicked, watching Yueer push open the door of the ancestral hall in a hurry, and fell to her knees with a plop before.

"Master was assassinated!"

Ruan Qi was assassinated on the way back.

The news soon spread to Prince Xuan's mansion, Gu Jinxi first went home to greet his parents, then went to the yard of the old lady and princess to greet him, and had tea with the old lady and princess before leaving.

He was reading the latest news in the study, when he heard the news that Ruan Qi was assassinated, he hurriedly put down his pen and rushed to Gu Yu's study.

"Father!" Gu Jinxi opened the door and called Gu Yu.

Gu Yu seemed to have also received the news of Ruan Qi's assassination, his brows were furrowed, and when he saw Gu Jinxi coming in, he raised his hand to signal Gu Jinxi to be quiet.

"I already know. There is news from Dingguo's mansion that Ruan Qi has been sent back, but his life is in danger, and their mansion doctor is not in the capital. Now the emperor knows about it and sent the imperial doctor there."

But could the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital be from Mu Yichen?

Who did it this time?
"It must be about the salt tax." Gu Yu turned sideways, looked at Gu Jinxi and said, "Someone can't wait!"

There are too many people involved in the salt tax matter. Both Gu Yu and Ruan Qi knew it was a dangerous job, but they had no choice. The emperor asked them to investigate, and they could only accept orders. Perhaps the emperor never thought that the person who did it would actually So fast, how long has it been?
"Go and have a look. You and Ling'er are already engaged. Speaking of which, Ruan Qi is also your future father-in-law. It's normal for you to care about it now."

Looking at Gu Jinxi's expression, he knew that he wanted to rush to Dingguo's mansion immediately, but Gu Yu didn't say much, and let Gu Jinxi go.

Gu Qu looked at his son's back, feeling a little worried.

"Your son, don't you know? He puts his whole heart on the girl from Ruan Qi's family! He is not in a hurry to see Gu Yu, he is worried about Ling'er's situation." Gu Yuan threatened Gu Qu's.

She said faintly, "I know, it's because of this that I'm even more worried! I know Ling'er's temperament, and Mother even gave her a bunch of eighteen sons, do you think Mother gave them for fun?"

Gu Yu and Gu Qu knew about this from the very beginning.

But regarding Ruan Cailing's character, even if they didn't hear about it from other people, they still knew about it. At first, Gu Qu felt that such a girl would at least not be bullied by others, and would be able to support the status of Princess Xuan in the future.

But gradually, Gu Qushi became a little worried.

After a long time, will a person's cruelty endanger the people around him?

But Ruan Cailing was really kind to Gu Jinxi, and Gu Qushi kept this worry in his heart, and never mentioned it to Gu Jinxi.

That's right now.

Ruan Cailing will never let the person who hurt Ruan Qi go unpunished. If Ruan Qi is fine, maybe it's okay. She may only be hostile to one person, but if Ruan Qi is dead...

Those who have anything to do with this matter will suffer.

If Ruan Cailing really went crazy, she wouldn't care about the prince or emperor who was behind her. Those who harmed her family were all accomplices, and none of them could escape.

So Gu Qu also hoped that Ruan Qi was safe and well.

Gu Yu said, "Don't worry, the children have grown up, they know what to do, besides, isn't Jin Xi by Ling'er's side, he will never watch Ling'er step into the abyss."

"I'm afraid, your son is too indulgent!"
