Ruan's wife is pregnant

Chapter 56 Unknown Direction

Ruan Xuchen was silent for a moment, "Alright, if you ask Jiang Chen to come up later, I can still trust him."

"Well."

Li'er had already urged her again, Ruan Cailing put on the belt of her coat again, thanks to the fact that she hadn't completely taken off her clothes just now, otherwise if the eldest brother came out directly...

Although they are biological brothers and sisters, she is already at this age, and the elders in the family have also started to help her brother find a wife, which is still a bit embarrassing.

Back in the boudoir, Jiang Chen was gone. Ruan Xuchen, who was supposed to take a nap for a while, was sitting cross-legged on Ruan Cailing's bed. There was something on the bed sheet, and Ruan Xuchen was concentrating on watching.

Ruan Cailing didn't let Qing Rui come up with her, she just said that she would just rest when she came up, and she didn't need to be waited on by anyone, so she drove everyone away.

She also specially lit incense downstairs and served it up.

"Brother, have you eaten yet?" Ruan Cailing put the incense burner on the table beside her and walked to the bed.

On the bed was a hand-painted map that had already turned yellow, it was drawn on silk, Ruan Xuchen stared at it intently, and shook his head when he heard Ruan Cailing's voice, "It's okay, I'm not hungry, come and take a look, Ling'er."

What was drawn on the map seemed to be a secret room, because Ruan Cailing didn't see any words like windows, it was completely airtight walls, and Ruan Cailing couldn't understand many organs and the like.

Ruan Xuchen looked up and said to Ruan Cailing, "Ling'er, this map is here with you, you must not let anyone know about it, and you must remember all the directions on this map clearly!"

all?Remember clearly?

Ruan Cailing's eyes widened, and she pointed at the map on the bed with one finger, "Everything? Brother, are you right? This map is so complicated that I can hardly even understand it. How can I remember everything clearly!"

"No, you don't have to understand, even if you memorize it by rote, you have to keep it in my mind!" Ruan Xuchen said seriously.

Ruan Cailing was puzzled, but Ruan Xuchen had never put forward such strict demands on herself, Ruan Cailing sighed, and imitated Ruan Xuchen's way of crossing her legs and resting her chin with one hand, "Okay, I'll give it a try."

"This thing will save your life!"

This was the last sentence Ruan Cailing heard that day. Ruan Cailing looked at it by candlelight for a long time, and finally fell asleep in a daze. The next day, she put away the map. No one other than Jiang Chen knew that their eldest son had already returned home.

Just hide quietly.

The only thing that is surprising is that Ruan Cailing seldom dined with Ruan Su and Ruan Qi in the lobby, and always ate alone in the Sihua Building. Faced with everyone's puzzlement, Ruan Cailing only said that she had a headache I have committed the same problem again, and I don't want to go out.

In order to protect his brother, he even turned down Gu Jinxi's appointment.

Regarding this point, Ruan Cailing regretted it!

Originally, she could go out, but if she went out, her brother who hid in his room during the day would be hungry all day!Moreover, Ruan Xuchen also had intentions to keep Ruan Cailing and Gu Jinxi at a distance, and dragged Ruan Cailing to prevent her from leaving. In the end, Ruan Cailing could only ask Jiang Chen to report to Prince Xuan's mansion that she was ill.

As a result, the high-quality Ganoderma lucidum was delivered to the door.

Ruan Cailing looked at the Ganoderma lucidum neatly placed in the purple jade box on the table, and Qing Rui on the side also suppressed a smile. If Ruan Cailing's expression was not too sad and indignant, she might have laughed outright.

Picking up the Ganoderma lucidum and looking at it, Ruan Cailing threw it back directly.

"Brother blames you!"

Ruan Xuchen, who was reading carefully, could see Ruan Cailing's movements clearly from the corner of his eye, "Why are you blaming me? Look, brother Gu sent you Ganoderma lucidum, didn't he? I care about you!"

Easier said than done!
Turning down the invitation with Gu Jinxi, her heart is bleeding!
Ruan Cailing yelled, and threw the purple jade box in her hand towards Ruan Xuchen. Ruan Xuchen held the book in one hand, and caught the box with the other hand, and put it on the shelf beside him lightly, and withdrew his hand. Turned a page of the book.

Ruan Cailing was not affected at all.

Ruan Cailing always felt that her elder brother did it on purpose.

"Brother" She raised her right eyebrow and approached Ruan Xuchen, leaning sideways and asked, "Do you not want me to be with Brother Gu?"

This time, Ruan Xuchen finally gave Ruan Cailing a reaction, and tapped Ruan Cailing's head lightly with a book, "I said it all, don't call me Brother Gu, Gu Jinxi is the son of King Xuan, you should call him the son of the prince." Better."

Imperial power is insurmountable, this is a rule engraved in the bones.

Ruan Cailing curled her lips, "Even he said yes! What are you afraid of? If you don't tell me, I will go out of the house to find Gu Jinxi right now!"

Seeing that one trick didn't work, Ruan Cailing started threatening.

But Ruan Xuchen was not afraid at all, and chuckled lightly, "You go, today, I won't stop you."

Ruan Cailing: "..."

Ruan Xuchen received the news early in the morning that Gu Jinxi had entered the palace overnight and has not yet come out. I am afraid that the emperor has something to hand over to Gu Jinxi, so it is no wonder that the prince in the palace is dissatisfied with Gu Jinxi.

Obviously there is a son who doesn't need it, but he can't be beaten with eight poles, but he is still the son of the royal family and nobles in name, so the people in the palace will inevitably be wary of Gu Jinxi, but Gu Jinxi has a gentle face and a ruthless personality. With a black belly, no one really dares to do anything to Gu Jinxi.

Otherwise, he would have been the same as himself today, needing to escape.

"Oh, by the way, big brother, why is someone chasing you like this, and you are also the prince, why is no one chasing you, big brother Gu?" Ruan Cailing was puzzled.

Ruan Xuchen finally took a look at Ruan Cailing, and sighed, "Gu Jinxi has always been the one who doesn't give others a way out, so where is it for others to decide whether he will go or not? A few years ago, there were some people who didn't know what to do. They sent someone to chase and kill Gu Jinxi, but in the end the whole family was wiped out by Gu Jinxi."

This happened many years ago, when Gu Jinxi was still young, the group of people who didn't know the so-called thought that Gu Jinxi was too young to pose any threat, so they went there.

In the end, Gu Jinxi's subordinates mercilessly killed the whole family.

The emperor also knew about this, and it was a way of completely conniving at Gu Jinxi.

Since then, some people have suspected that the emperor is not satisfied with his several princes, so he wants to choose one of the princes to inherit his throne?

Gu Jinxi, who is proficient in everything from literary to martial arts, is the most popular candidate.

But this is only the trend of the past few years. In the past two years, the third prince and the ninth prince have excelled. No one dared to do anything to Gu Jinxi.

Ruan Cailing shook his head.

Why doesn't she remember this?
Has something like this happened in previous lives?

Or, did this incident never happen in the previous life, and it only happened in this life?
Gradually, Ruan Cailing actually had a feeling that things were starting to develop in an unknown direction.

But the two princes have always been the emperor's favorite assistant ministers, even better than the current Duke Dingguo and King Xuan, but at the same time, they are also the emperor, and the thorn in the flesh of the princes.

It's very confusing.

Ruan Cailing propped her chin with both hands, snatched the book from Ruan Xuchen's hand, glanced casually and threw it aside, "Brother, tell me the truth, are you really hiding from others in the mansion? How do I feel, you Does it seem like you didn't let me go out on purpose?"

Ruan Xuchen, "..."

It was already afternoon when Gu Jinxi came out of the palace, and the sun was setting.

Yesterday he came back from the outside and entered the palace overnight, but the emperor had already rested and he didn't bother him, he was just resting in the temporary residence in the palace, but he met someone he shouldn't have seen.

"Master, are we going home now?" Mu Bai asked.

At this moment, Gu Jinxi was sitting in the carriage and reading a book, "Go to Dingguo's mansion."

"Ah? Now?" Mu Bai was surprised.

A few days ago was the day they had agreed to meet, but suddenly the guards came and said that Ruan Cailing was ill and could not meet him. At that time, Gu Jinxi had other things to do, so he had to send a Ganoderma lucidum over there. But thinking about it now, there has been no news from Ruan Xuchen for several days. I'm afraid it's not because he's sick, but he can't go out!
The only person who can make Ruan Cailing stumble is Ruan Xuchen, the heir of Duke Ding's mansion!

Although Mu Bai didn't understand, he rode his horse to an alley near Dingguo's mansion, and didn't park the carriage at the gate of Dingguo's mansion. There must be people monitoring Dingguo's mansion around here. Ruan Xuchen is really hiding at home, and if he goes there in a big way, he will let those people succeed.

Ruan Cailing and Ruan Xuchen's hard work these days will be in vain.

Gu Jinxi changed clothes in the carriage, not the one that came out of the palace, then lifted the curtain and a figure immediately skipped over the roof, while Mu Bai continued to ride the horse towards the direction of Prince Xuan's mansion while driving the carriage While talking to the 'people' in the carriage.

But there is no response.

"Brother, when will you show up? I've been at home for several days, and even Wanyue came to see me and I have to close the door to thank you!" Since Ruan Cailing was reborn, this is the first time that she doesn't leave the house without leaving the house. .

Very boring.

Ruan Xuchen had already changed his posture and was eating snacks. Hearing Ruan Cailing's impatient tone, he was about to speak when he suddenly noticed a shadow passing by outside the window. Although it was already dusk and the shadow was not obvious, Ruan Xuchen Still can feel the strange breath around.

"Brother..." Ruan Cailing dragged his voice, but Ruan Xuchen suddenly covered Ruan Cailing's mouth with his hand and hissed.

Gu Jinxi on the eaves outside was deliberately discovered by Ruan Xuchen, so that Ruan Xuchen and Ruan Cailing would retreat.

"Qing Rui, go and rest first, let Jiang Chen watch downstairs, don't come up." Ruan Cailing said to the drowsy Qing Rui.

Qing Rui cheered up.
