Ruan's wife is pregnant
Chapter 45 Ruan Xuchen's Situation
Chapter 45 Ruan Xuchen's Situation
She has been in Dingguo's mansion for so long, although her surname is Shen, most of the people are still called Miss Biao, and her status seems to be the adopted daughter of Dingguo's mansion.
But Su Wanyue talked about Miss Shen, clearly hoping that she would remember the difference between herself and Ruan Cailing, and also let her understand that she was not from Dingguo's mansion at all.
At the beginning, Shen Yunyun also wanted to make friends with Su Wanyue, thinking that Ruan Cailing was so easy to deceive, then Su Wanyue must be a fool.
But she didn't expect that from the very beginning, Su Wanyue looked down on her because of her status!
So Shen Yunyun also dismissed this idea, since Su Wanyue and herself have a birth, then she just finds a way to make Ruan Cailing and Su Wanyue have a birth.
But unexpectedly, after so many years, the relationship between Su Wanyue and Ruan Cailing is still the same, and it hasn't changed at all because of her provocation.
Just pissed her off!
Ruan Cailing glanced at Shen Yunyun, who was secretly annoyed, and smiled, "Since my cousin has to go back to her room to rest, then we won't bother, and we'll leave first, I'm going to send Wanyue back home!"
"Oh, then... you guys go first! Be careful on the road!" Shen Yunyun came back to her senses, and hastily made way for Ruan Cailing and Su Wanyue. This was a subconscious action.
Usually only servants would make way for the lady like this, Shen Yunyun also felt embarrassed after she made way for her.
But so what, she did it herself, no wonder others, she can only be angry with herself secretly.
……
Ruan Cailing and Su Wanyue got into the carriage, and Qing Rui was pouring water for Su Wanyue, Su Wanyue said with a smile, "After all, you are from a small family, and you can tell at a glance how you behave, but what about Auntie Ruan?" Do you love Shen Yunyun like this? I still can't figure it out!"
Ruan Su has always been a kind-hearted person, and the same is true for his servants. After learning that something happened to his sister's family and only one daughter was left behind, he immediately asked someone to take the child over without thinking about anything else.
After seeing Shen Yunyun, she felt that Shen Yunyun was sensible.
Since then, it has been rumored that Shen Yunyun is the adopted daughter of Duke Dingguo, and Shen Yunyun's status has also changed a lot.
In fact, in Ruan Cailing's heart, Shen Yunyun was not like this when she first entered the mansion. When she first entered the mansion, she was cautious, and no matter what she did, she had to look at people's faces, for fear of doing something wrong and being kicked out.
I also know that Dingguo Mansion is not my home, but a place to accommodate me, so even if everyone in the mansion respectfully calls her Miss Cousin, Shen Yunyun's performance is still submissive, and her vision of seeing people has improved a lot in her rebirth. , she could see that the former Shen Yunyun was really innocent.
He is definitely not the kind of person who is weak on the surface and vicious on the inside.
So why did it change?Why did Shen Yunyun become like this?
He became very scheming, wanted everything, and even tried to kill his parents and the entire Dingguo mansion.
I really don't know what kind of hatred Shen Yunyun has towards Duke Ding's Mansion, and what is the source of the hatred?
One day, she will find out everything.
Thinking of this, Ruan Cailing sighed, "My mother dotes on Shen Yunyun because she is the daughter of my mother's only relative, but if things go on like this, I'm afraid she won't be able to dote on her for long. I'm just worried that after my mother knows Shen Yunyun's true face, How sad and disappointed it will be, hey, let's not talk about it, I will take you back to the mansion first, and I will go to the Yanhua Building later."
"I think you are in a hurry to go to Yanhua Building to see your elder brother Gu!" Su Wanyue bumped Ruan Cailing with her shoulder, and looked at her with a handkerchief covering her lips with a smile.
When Ruan Cailing thought of Gu Jinxi, she didn't have the nerve to speak.
She didn't go to the Yanhualou to see Gu Jinxi at all, but to ask about Brother Xiyin's situation. Besides, it's not certain whether Gu Jinxi will go to the Yanhualou today.
Of course, it would be great if you could see it!
"Miss is all about Prince Xuan's son, and she smiles when she thinks of him." Qing Rui said jokingly.
Ruan Cailing frowned, and glared at Qing Rui pretending to be annoyed, "You dare to say that about me? Do you want to punish me by kneeling!"
Qing Rui stuck out her tongue immediately and stopped talking.
Seeing Ruan Cailing's appearance, Su Wanyue couldn't help being a little funny, thinking that her good friend really likes Prince Xuan.
"In fact, to be honest, it may not be a good thing for you to have a good relationship with Prince Xuan's son. After all... well, you also know that King Xuan is a prince with a different surname. The honor and disgrace of this process are all in the emperor's mind. After all, he is not his own. Brother, it's hard to say what the future holds!"
"I know that." In fact, Ruan Cailing had also considered what Su Wanyue said.
The prince with a different surname worked very hard. In the previous dynasty, he did not dare not work hard for fear of being impeached, but he did not dare to work hard for fear of being remembered by the emperor. King Xuan and Gu Jinxi were both in a very dangerous position.
After she told her parents that the person she likes is Gu Jinxi, needless to say, she could see the sadness on her father's face.
So far, the emperor has absolutely not allowed it, and the two major forces have joined forces.
Especially the aristocratic families like Prince Xuan's Mansion and Duke Dingguo Mansion.
Once married, it will involve great pros and cons. For the royal family and the emperor, it is a threat to his throne, so the emperor will never agree.
Besides, the marriage between Duke Dingguo's Mansion and Prince Xuan's Mansion is still a matter of eight poles.
Even if she really wanted to marry Gu Jinxi, it would only be when the emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne. When the new emperor ascended the throne, his foundation was not stable, so he would try his best to win over the ministers. Dingguo Palace and Xuanwang Palace must be the first to bear the brunt.
So at that time, Dingguo's mansion proposed to marry Xuan Wang's mansion, and the new emperor would definitely agree to it in order to win people's hearts. At that time, it was her chance to be with Gu Jinxi.
But after the death of the previous emperor, who ascended the throne?
Ruan Cailing's face turned pale, she found that she suddenly couldn't remember, what's going on?
"This is impossible!" Ruan Cailing screamed.
She didn't know why she suddenly couldn't remember who the new emperor in her previous life was, and she always felt that there was something blocking her in her mind, preventing her from crossing over.
Could it be God?
Ruan Cailing's loss of control startled Su Wanyue, "Ling'er, what's wrong with you? What's impossible?"
Ruan Cailing came back to her senses, and shook her head with a pale face, "It's okay, I was distracted just now."
"Really?" Su Wanyue looked at her suspiciously, but didn't ask any further questions.
Ruan Cailing continued the topic just now, "You have to talk about these court marriages, I get a headache when I think about it! I finally hoped for you, so you can just say something to make me happy!"
"I'm just reminding you, even if you meet Shizi, you have to pay attention! Your elder brother has escaped to hide from the eyeliner, and you have to pay attention to what's going on in the open and in the dark."
"I know." Ruan Cailing responded, suddenly, she thought of the man who broke into her boudoir and got injured that night.
Could that person be someone who came to stare at Duke Ding's mansion?
"You didn't fall ill after falling into the water, did you? Why are you in a daze every now and then?" Su Wanyue shook her hand in front of Ruan Cailing's eyes, looking very worried.
Ruan Cailing rolled her eyes, and slapped Su Wanyue's hand off, and Qing Rui, who was beside her, also nodded in agreement.
"I was in a daze because I was thinking about something, you don't understand!" Ruan Cailing despised them.
The rickety carriage finally arrived at the Su residence.
"Go in and have a cup of tea." Su Wanyue said.
"No, go back quickly, I'll wait for you in the carriage!" After speaking, Ruan Cailing put down the curtain.
Qing Rui hesitated: "Miss, isn't it impolite not to enter the door?"
Just as Ruan Cailing was about to speak, Su Wanyue knocked on the car window, showing a helpless smile, "Looks like I'm going to the Yanhua Building with you. I wanted to talk to my father, but the guard just said that I Dad has gone to the palace."
Ruan Cailing smiled, "It's okay, I just happen to be very happy! Let's go, let's go to the Yanhua Building and take you to the theater!"
"Let's go!" Su Wanyue got into the carriage again, and the driver drove the carriage towards the Yanhua Building.
Whether it is day or night or whatever, the Yanhua Building is always bustling with guests, and the boxes upstairs are always full.
Seeing Ruan Cailing and Su Wanyue, Xiyin, who was leaning against the cabinet at the door to settle accounts, let out a yo, walked out from behind, and saluted Ruan Cailing, "Miss, why are you here today?"
After finishing speaking, his eyes turned to Su Wanyue's face again, Xiyin was silent for a few seconds before continuing to salute with a smile, "This is Miss Su Wanyue, the daughter of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Miss Su, right? it is good!"
"You know me?" Su Wanyue was surprised, pointing at herself and asked in doubt.
After Xiyin got up, she smiled very nicely, "There are not many people in the whole capital that I, Xiyin, don't know, and besides, Ms. Su has a good relationship with my eldest lady. You two came together like this. Xiyin guessed that Miss Su is the only one who can be so close to Missy."
"I see." Su Wanyue nodded.
"Two young ladies, please go upstairs! I will go and make tea for you!" After speaking, Xiyin called a waiter and led the two of them upstairs.
While going upstairs, Su Wanyue asked Ruan Cailing who this Xiyin was.
Ruan Cailing held up her skirt and followed Xiaoer, only saying that Xiyin was brother's subordinate.
After all, she didn't know more about Xiyin herself. "
About a cup of tea time, Xiyin pushed the door in with the brewed tea and asked while pouring the tea:
"Why is Missy here today?"
Ruan Cailing tapped lightly on the table before replying: "I just took Wan Yue to watch a show, but..."
She looked up at Xiyin, who nodded, indicating that there was no one here for her to talk to.
"How is brother?"
Xiyin glanced at Su Wanyue, and Ruan Cailing immediately understood what she meant, "Wanyue is my good friend, you can trust her."
Hearing this, Su Wanyue was very moved.
Xiyin didn't worry about it either, and replied, the eldest son has already settled in the suburbs, so the young lady doesn't have to worry. "
"But it has been found out who put my brother in danger and had to avoid the limelight?" Ruan Cailing's small white hands tightly clutched the teacup, her face was full of worry and solemnity.
She wanted to know if the person who let her brother hide from the limelight this time was the person behind Xie Qingyuan who made her brother disappear in his previous life.
Xiyin shook his head, "This group of people is too mysterious, and they haven't been found out yet."
"Really?" Ruan Cailing was a little disappointed.
In the sound of beating gongs and drums and singing opera, Su Wanyue comforted her, "You don't have to worry too much, you know what your elder brother is capable of, since he smelled the crisis in advance and avoided it, it means that he will find out in the future the people behind it."
"Yes, miss, you have to trust your brother." Xiyin helped Ruan Cailing fill up the teacup again, echoing Su Wanyue's words.
Both of them comforted her like this, Ruan Cailing felt that she was a bit hypocritical if she still couldn't let go.
"Forget it, it's good that brother is fine, and we can discuss the rest after brother comes back."
After finishing speaking, she took a long breath, and persuaded herself to think about it, because it was useless to always be on the edge of a dead end.
"That's it, those two ladies are playing, and the servants will arrange operas for you."
"Then I will trouble you." Ruan Cailing said politely.
Xiyin is her elder brother's capable subordinate, and she can afford to treat her with courtesy.
Xiyin arranged a new play, Su Wanyue could hear it with relish, but Ruan Cailing kept staring thoughtfully at the tightly closed doors and windows on the fifth floor opposite, as if waiting for something.
Su Wanyue put the melon seed skins in a small bowl on the table, and joked: "I didn't see your elder brother in the Yanhua Building today, are you a little disappointed?"
Brother Shizi?
After regaining her senses, Ruan Cailing waited for Su Wanyue to take a look, "I know two princes, who are you talking about? My elder brother is also a prince, and I am also called elder brother!"
"What do you think? Of course I mean Gu Jinxi, Prince Xuan's son!" Su Wanyue smiled.
"Brother Gu didn't just come here to drink tea and watch a show when he has nothing to do!" Ruan Cailing rolled his eyes.
Su Wanyue felt the affection for Gu Jinxi in her words, and jokingly said, "Hey, it's only been a few days since Brother Gu! I heard that until now, Lin Ziyan is still a well-behaved son of a bitch." Grandpa!"
Cut, what is the relationship between Lin Ziyan and Gu Jinxi?A concubine, still wanting to call Brother Gu Jinxi?Come on!
"You talk too much!"
The two were playing around.
After a play was finally over, Su Wanyue yawned after listening to another piece of pipa.
Compassionate for Su Wanyue who just came back from martial arts training, exhausted from traveling and traveling, and was very tired after spending another day with her, so Ruan Cailing asked Su Wanyue to return home earlier.
Su Wanyue was also about to go back, so she took her leave and left.
"Miss Su is gone, isn't the eldest lady going back to the house?" Xi Yin came over again and asked with a smile.
Ruan Cailing stretched her waist, "It's not too early to come out, it's time to go back."
I came to Yanhualou because I wanted to know about my brother's situation, and also because I wanted to see if I could meet Gu Jinxi.
But now it seems that I can't touch it, and it's meaningless to stay.
"Then I'll arrange a carriage for Miss."
As Xiyin said, just as she was about to go out, Qingrui rushed in with a look of excitement, "Miss, I saw Shizi's carriage downstairs."
Prince?elder brother?
Xiyin and Ruan Cailing looked at each other, and Ruan Cailing hurriedly asked, "Isn't my brother in the suburbs?"
"No, no, it's Prince Xuan's son, not our son!" Qing Rui waved her hand and said.
Upon hearing Gu Jinxi, Ruan Cailing's eyes lit up, full of surprise.
She didn't expect that she would really wait for Gu Jinxi.
"Come on, let's go down." Ruan Cailing quickly walked out of the box and rushed downstairs.
Qing Rui quickly followed.
Xiyin looked at the backs of the master and servant leaving with a funny face, shook her head, and sighed, "It's nice to be young."
……
When they got downstairs, Ruan Cailing looked in the direction Qing Rui pointed, and it was indeed Gu Jinxi's carriage.
But before they could walk over, the carriage drove suddenly.
"Miss, the son is gone." Qing Rui said.
Ruan Cailing pursed her lips, "I know."
"Then what shall we do?"
"Come up."
"This...isn't very good." Qing Rui hesitated.
Ruan Cailing didn't care so much, she finally met her sweetheart, there was no reason to miss it without saying hello.
"Stop rambling, let the coachman come over."
"Oh……"
Ruan Cailing followed Gu Jinxi's carriage all the way, the more she walked, the more weird she felt, this was not the way to Prince Xuan's Mansion, but the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Sure enough, Qing Rui's voice sounded outside, "Miss, the eldest son stopped at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
What did Gu Jinxi come to the Prime Minister's Mansion for?
"Let's stop too." Ruan Cailing ordered immediately, and got out of the carriage.
Her position is some distance away from the entrance of the prime minister's mansion, but she can clearly see a carriage parked at the gate of the prime minister's mansion, which belongs to Gu Jinxi, and then there are many tables at the door with several large barrels on it. It is a meal given to beggars, and many beggars and poor people are waiting in line at the door to eat.
"What's the situation?" Ruan Cailing frowned.
The prime minister's mansion turned out to be giving alms, why didn't I hear about it?
"Did you see Brother Gu?"
"No, I didn't see Shizi." Qing Rui replied.
Ruan Cailing didn't see Gu Jinxi either, she only saw Mu Bai sitting on the carriage frame, and when no one found herself and Qing Rui in the prime minister's mansion, she called Qing Rui, bent down and walked along the wall to Gu Jin Behind Xi's carriage, just as he was sneaking up to wait for Gu Jinxi, a sword suddenly stopped in front of him.
"Miss, be careful!" Qing Rui was anxious in her heart, and hurried over, fearing that Mu Bai's hand would shake and the sword would hurt Ruan Cailing.
Ruan Cailing thought that Mu Bai didn't see her face clearly, that she was someone who was planning to do something wrong, so she hurriedly said, "Mubai, it's me! Brother Gu is still inside, right?"
For some reason, Mu Bai looked a little strange, looking at Ruan Cailing's eyes filled with strangeness.
Ruan Cailing raised her eyebrows, thinking, even if I only met her two or three times in my life, I still don't know her, right?
But soon Ruan Cailing remembered that in the previous life, Gu Jinxi had always been surrounded by two guards, and they were twin brothers.
So this is...
"Are you Mu Han?"
Surprise flashed across Mu Leng's indifferent eyes, which happened to be caught by Ruan Cailing.
Sure enough, it was Mu Han, Mu Bai's elder brother.
Although the two brothers look the same, they have completely different personalities. Mu Bai is lively, while Mu Han is very indifferent. He has always kept a straight face and doesn't like to talk, so it is easy to distinguish them.
"Who are you?" Mu Han asked directly.
This person can accurately call his own name, does he know Shi Ziye?
"I'm Ruan Cailing, daughter of Duke Dingguo's mansion, and I'm a very good friend with your son." Ruan Cailing said.
If it is allowed, she even wants to say that I am the fiancee of your Shi Ziye, and your future Shi Zifei!
However, even if Ruan Cailing said so, Mu Han still did not let go of his vigilance, his sharp eyes were still staring at Ruan Cailing.
Ruan Cailing couldn't help laughing, "Forget it, when your master comes out, you will know that I haven't lied again, but can you let me go in and wait for Brother Gu?"
She pointed to Gu Jinxi's carriage.
Mu Han refused without hesitation, "No."
"Don't be so rigid."
"no!"
Being rejected again, Ruan Cailing was also a little annoyed, and hummed: "You can't do it if you say no, I want to go up, if you have the ability, you throw me down, hmph!"
With that said, she got into Gu Jinxi's carriage directly.
Mu Han was very angry, but he couldn't really throw Ruan Cailing down.
Firstly, the other party is a woman, a lady of Dingguo's mansion, and secondly, if he really has something to do with his elder son, then he will never forgive him if he does this.
So the result was that Mu Han watched Ruan Cailing get into Gu Jinxi's carriage, but couldn't do anything.
Successfully getting into Gu Jinxi's carriage, Ruan Cailing was very proud. She didn't let Qing Rui come up with her, but asked her to go back to their own carriage and wait. She waited quietly for Gu Jinxi in the carriage. Jin Xi came out.
After being angry for a while, Mu Han moved to the front of the carriage, but he didn't dare to sit on the frame of the carriage, and stood beside the horse all the time.
I don't know how long it took, but the sky gradually darkened.
Ruan Cailing also fell asleep waiting, and Qing Rui had already been sent back home by her.
Outside the carriage, Mu Han saluted Gu Jinxi, "Master!"
"En." Gu Jinxi nodded slightly, and was about to get into the carriage.
But Mu Han stopped him, "Master, in the car..."
"What happened in the car?"
Mu Han didn't know how to answer.
Mu Bai was straightforward, opened the curtain of the car, and then stared at the boss, "Master, there is a woman in the car, Miss Ruan."
Ruan Ruan?
Almost at the same time, Ruan Cailing's face appeared in Gu Jinxi's mind.
He walked to the car curtain, looked at the girl sleeping soundly inside, and couldn't help but feel his heart soften.
"Why is she here?" Gu Jinxi asked Mu Han.
Mu Han clasped his fists and told everything about Ruan Cailing's visit.
Mu Bai laughed and said, "Master, Miss Ruan is really interesting."
There was also a slight smile in Gu Jinxi's eyes, "Let's go, go to Dingguo Mansion."
The girl is asleep, so I have to send her back.
"Yes!"
……
Ruan Cailing was woken up by shaking. The swaying carriage made her sleep unsteadily. She opened her eyes in a daze, feeling as if she was lying in a warm embrace, with the sound of steady breathing on her forehead.
what's the situation?How did the carriage move?
Ruan Cailing immediately woke up, and suddenly sat up from Gu Jinxi's arms.
Because the movement was too fast, even Gu Jinxi didn't have time to react, the top of her head hit her chin directly, fortunately she didn't bite her tongue.
But Gu Jinxi was amused by Ruan Cailing. He rubbed his chin and asked softly, "Ruan Ruan, does your head hurt?"
Perhaps because he was not fully awake yet, Ruan Cai covered the top of his head with his hands, staring blankly at the man, and it took him a long time to react.
"Brother Gu?"
"Well, it's me."
Ruan Cailing blinked her eyes, and after confirming that the man in front of her hadn't disappeared and was real, she was stunned again.
(End of this chapter)
She has been in Dingguo's mansion for so long, although her surname is Shen, most of the people are still called Miss Biao, and her status seems to be the adopted daughter of Dingguo's mansion.

Just as Ruan Cailing was about to speak, Su Wanyue knocked on the car window, showing a helpless smile, "Looks like I'm going to the Yanhua Building with you. I wanted to talk to my father, but the guard just said that I Dad has gone to the palace."
Ruan Cailing smiled, "It's okay, I just happen to be very happy! Let's go, let's go to the Yanhua Building and take you to the theater!"
"Let's go!" Su Wanyue got into the carriage again, and the driver drove the carriage towards the Yanhua Building.
Whether it is day or night or whatever, the Yanhua Building is always bustling with guests, and the boxes upstairs are always full.
Seeing Ruan Cailing and Su Wanyue, Xiyin, who was leaning against the cabinet at the door to settle accounts, let out a yo, walked out from behind, and saluted Ruan Cailing, "Miss, why are you here today?"
After finishing speaking, his eyes turned to Su Wanyue's face again, Xiyin was silent for a few seconds before continuing to salute with a smile, "This is Miss Su Wanyue, the daughter of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Miss Su, right? it is good!"
"You know me?" Su Wanyue was surprised, pointing at herself and asked in doubt.
After Xiyin got up, she smiled very nicely, "There are not many people in the whole capital that I, Xiyin, don't know, and besides, Ms. Su has a good relationship with my eldest lady. You two came together like this. Xiyin guessed that Miss Su is the only one who can be so close to Missy."
"I see." Su Wanyue nodded.
"Two young ladies, please go upstairs! I will go and make tea for you!" After speaking, Xiyin called a waiter and led the two of them upstairs.
While going upstairs, Su Wanyue asked Ruan Cailing who this Xiyin was.
Ruan Cailing held up her skirt and followed Xiaoer, only saying that Xiyin was brother's subordinate.
After all, she didn't know more about Xiyin herself. "
About a cup of tea time, Xiyin pushed the door in with the brewed tea and asked while pouring the tea:
"Why is Missy here today?"
Ruan Cailing tapped lightly on the table before replying: "I just took Wan Yue to watch a show, but..."
She looked up at Xiyin, who nodded, indicating that there was no one here for her to talk to.
"How is brother?"
Xiyin glanced at Su Wanyue, and Ruan Cailing immediately understood what she meant, "Wanyue is my good friend, you can trust her."
Hearing this, Su Wanyue was very moved.
Xiyin didn't worry about it either, and replied, the eldest son has already settled in the suburbs, so the young lady doesn't have to worry. "
"But it has been found out who put my brother in danger and had to avoid the limelight?" Ruan Cailing's small white hands tightly clutched the teacup, her face was full of worry and solemnity.
She wanted to know if the person who let her brother hide from the limelight this time was the person behind Xie Qingyuan who made her brother disappear in his previous life.
Xiyin shook his head, "This group of people is too mysterious, and they haven't been found out yet."
"Really?" Ruan Cailing was a little disappointed.
In the sound of beating gongs and drums and singing opera, Su Wanyue comforted her, "You don't have to worry too much, you know what your elder brother is capable of, since he smelled the crisis in advance and avoided it, it means that he will find out in the future the people behind it."
"Yes, miss, you have to trust your brother." Xiyin helped Ruan Cailing fill up the teacup again, echoing Su Wanyue's words.
Both of them comforted her like this, Ruan Cailing felt that she was a bit hypocritical if she still couldn't let go.
"Forget it, it's good that brother is fine, and we can discuss the rest after brother comes back."
After finishing speaking, she took a long breath, and persuaded herself to think about it, because it was useless to always be on the edge of a dead end.
"That's it, those two ladies are playing, and the servants will arrange operas for you."
"Then I will trouble you." Ruan Cailing said politely.
Xiyin is her elder brother's capable subordinate, and she can afford to treat her with courtesy.
Xiyin arranged a new play, Su Wanyue could hear it with relish, but Ruan Cailing kept staring thoughtfully at the tightly closed doors and windows on the fifth floor opposite, as if waiting for something.
Su Wanyue put the melon seed skins in a small bowl on the table, and joked: "I didn't see your elder brother in the Yanhua Building today, are you a little disappointed?"
Brother Shizi?
After regaining her senses, Ruan Cailing waited for Su Wanyue to take a look, "I know two princes, who are you talking about? My elder brother is also a prince, and I am also called elder brother!"
"What do you think? Of course I mean Gu Jinxi, Prince Xuan's son!" Su Wanyue smiled.
"Brother Gu didn't just come here to drink tea and watch a show when he has nothing to do!" Ruan Cailing rolled his eyes.
Su Wanyue felt the affection for Gu Jinxi in her words, and jokingly said, "Hey, it's only been a few days since Brother Gu! I heard that until now, Lin Ziyan is still a well-behaved son of a bitch." Grandpa!"
Cut, what is the relationship between Lin Ziyan and Gu Jinxi?A concubine, still wanting to call Brother Gu Jinxi?Come on!
"You talk too much!"
The two were playing around.
After a play was finally over, Su Wanyue yawned after listening to another piece of pipa.
Compassionate for Su Wanyue who just came back from martial arts training, exhausted from traveling and traveling, and was very tired after spending another day with her, so Ruan Cailing asked Su Wanyue to return home earlier.
Su Wanyue was also about to go back, so she took her leave and left.
"Miss Su is gone, isn't the eldest lady going back to the house?" Xi Yin came over again and asked with a smile.
Ruan Cailing stretched her waist, "It's not too early to come out, it's time to go back."
I came to Yanhualou because I wanted to know about my brother's situation, and also because I wanted to see if I could meet Gu Jinxi.
But now it seems that I can't touch it, and it's meaningless to stay.
"Then I'll arrange a carriage for Miss."
As Xiyin said, just as she was about to go out, Qingrui rushed in with a look of excitement, "Miss, I saw Shizi's carriage downstairs."
Prince?elder brother?
Xiyin and Ruan Cailing looked at each other, and Ruan Cailing hurriedly asked, "Isn't my brother in the suburbs?"
"No, no, it's Prince Xuan's son, not our son!" Qing Rui waved her hand and said.
Upon hearing Gu Jinxi, Ruan Cailing's eyes lit up, full of surprise.
She didn't expect that she would really wait for Gu Jinxi.
"Come on, let's go down." Ruan Cailing quickly walked out of the box and rushed downstairs.
Qing Rui quickly followed.
Xiyin looked at the backs of the master and servant leaving with a funny face, shook her head, and sighed, "It's nice to be young."
……
When they got downstairs, Ruan Cailing looked in the direction Qing Rui pointed, and it was indeed Gu Jinxi's carriage.
But before they could walk over, the carriage drove suddenly.
"Miss, the son is gone." Qing Rui said.
Ruan Cailing pursed her lips, "I know."
"Then what shall we do?"
"Come up."
"This...isn't very good." Qing Rui hesitated.
Ruan Cailing didn't care so much, she finally met her sweetheart, there was no reason to miss it without saying hello.
"Stop rambling, let the coachman come over."
"Oh……"
Ruan Cailing followed Gu Jinxi's carriage all the way, the more she walked, the more weird she felt, this was not the way to Prince Xuan's Mansion, but the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Sure enough, Qing Rui's voice sounded outside, "Miss, the eldest son stopped at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
What did Gu Jinxi come to the Prime Minister's Mansion for?
"Let's stop too." Ruan Cailing ordered immediately, and got out of the carriage.
Her position is some distance away from the entrance of the prime minister's mansion, but she can clearly see a carriage parked at the gate of the prime minister's mansion, which belongs to Gu Jinxi, and then there are many tables at the door with several large barrels on it. It is a meal given to beggars, and many beggars and poor people are waiting in line at the door to eat.
"What's the situation?" Ruan Cailing frowned.
The prime minister's mansion turned out to be giving alms, why didn't I hear about it?
"Did you see Brother Gu?"
"No, I didn't see Shizi." Qing Rui replied.
Ruan Cailing didn't see Gu Jinxi either, she only saw Mu Bai sitting on the carriage frame, and when no one found herself and Qing Rui in the prime minister's mansion, she called Qing Rui, bent down and walked along the wall to Gu Jin Behind Xi's carriage, just as he was sneaking up to wait for Gu Jinxi, a sword suddenly stopped in front of him.
"Miss, be careful!" Qing Rui was anxious in her heart, and hurried over, fearing that Mu Bai's hand would shake and the sword would hurt Ruan Cailing.
Ruan Cailing thought that Mu Bai didn't see her face clearly, that she was someone who was planning to do something wrong, so she hurriedly said, "Mubai, it's me! Brother Gu is still inside, right?"
For some reason, Mu Bai looked a little strange, looking at Ruan Cailing's eyes filled with strangeness.
Ruan Cailing raised her eyebrows, thinking, even if I only met her two or three times in my life, I still don't know her, right?
But soon Ruan Cailing remembered that in the previous life, Gu Jinxi had always been surrounded by two guards, and they were twin brothers.
So this is...
"Are you Mu Han?"
Surprise flashed across Mu Leng's indifferent eyes, which happened to be caught by Ruan Cailing.
Sure enough, it was Mu Han, Mu Bai's elder brother.
Although the two brothers look the same, they have completely different personalities. Mu Bai is lively, while Mu Han is very indifferent. He has always kept a straight face and doesn't like to talk, so it is easy to distinguish them.
"Who are you?" Mu Han asked directly.
This person can accurately call his own name, does he know Shi Ziye?
"I'm Ruan Cailing, daughter of Duke Dingguo's mansion, and I'm a very good friend with your son." Ruan Cailing said.
If it is allowed, she even wants to say that I am the fiancee of your Shi Ziye, and your future Shi Zifei!
However, even if Ruan Cailing said so, Mu Han still did not let go of his vigilance, his sharp eyes were still staring at Ruan Cailing.
Ruan Cailing couldn't help laughing, "Forget it, when your master comes out, you will know that I haven't lied again, but can you let me go in and wait for Brother Gu?"
She pointed to Gu Jinxi's carriage.
Mu Han refused without hesitation, "No."
"Don't be so rigid."
"no!"
Being rejected again, Ruan Cailing was also a little annoyed, and hummed: "You can't do it if you say no, I want to go up, if you have the ability, you throw me down, hmph!"
With that said, she got into Gu Jinxi's carriage directly.
Mu Han was very angry, but he couldn't really throw Ruan Cailing down.
Firstly, the other party is a woman, a lady of Dingguo's mansion, and secondly, if he really has something to do with his elder son, then he will never forgive him if he does this.
So the result was that Mu Han watched Ruan Cailing get into Gu Jinxi's carriage, but couldn't do anything.
Successfully getting into Gu Jinxi's carriage, Ruan Cailing was very proud. She didn't let Qing Rui come up with her, but asked her to go back to their own carriage and wait. She waited quietly for Gu Jinxi in the carriage. Jin Xi came out.
After being angry for a while, Mu Han moved to the front of the carriage, but he didn't dare to sit on the frame of the carriage, and stood beside the horse all the time.
I don't know how long it took, but the sky gradually darkened.
Ruan Cailing also fell asleep waiting, and Qing Rui had already been sent back home by her.
Outside the carriage, Mu Han saluted Gu Jinxi, "Master!"
"En." Gu Jinxi nodded slightly, and was about to get into the carriage.
But Mu Han stopped him, "Master, in the car..."
"What happened in the car?"
Mu Han didn't know how to answer.
Mu Bai was straightforward, opened the curtain of the car, and then stared at the boss, "Master, there is a woman in the car, Miss Ruan."
Ruan Ruan?
Almost at the same time, Ruan Cailing's face appeared in Gu Jinxi's mind.
He walked to the car curtain, looked at the girl sleeping soundly inside, and couldn't help but feel his heart soften.
"Why is she here?" Gu Jinxi asked Mu Han.
Mu Han clasped his fists and told everything about Ruan Cailing's visit.
Mu Bai laughed and said, "Master, Miss Ruan is really interesting."
There was also a slight smile in Gu Jinxi's eyes, "Let's go, go to Dingguo Mansion."
The girl is asleep, so I have to send her back.
"Yes!"
……
Ruan Cailing was woken up by shaking. The swaying carriage made her sleep unsteadily. She opened her eyes in a daze, feeling as if she was lying in a warm embrace, with the sound of steady breathing on her forehead.
what's the situation?How did the carriage move?
Ruan Cailing immediately woke up, and suddenly sat up from Gu Jinxi's arms.
Because the movement was too fast, even Gu Jinxi didn't have time to react, the top of her head hit her chin directly, fortunately she didn't bite her tongue.
But Gu Jinxi was amused by Ruan Cailing. He rubbed his chin and asked softly, "Ruan Ruan, does your head hurt?"
Perhaps because he was not fully awake yet, Ruan Cai covered the top of his head with his hands, staring blankly at the man, and it took him a long time to react.
"Brother Gu?"
"Well, it's me."
Ruan Cailing blinked her eyes, and after confirming that the man in front of her hadn't disappeared and was real, she was stunned again.
