After the new widow, I became a tyrant's tender outer chamber

Chapter 268 Invitation

Ruan Yuyi was embraced by him, raised her head slightly, and looked into those pair of lacquered eyes.

She felt that she was probably still drunk, so she could see a little bit of grief from inside.How ridiculous, how could a person who could even disregard her life and death show such emotion.

She drew back a small step, opened the distance between the two of them, and took the hand on her shoulder, all the way down to the wrist, and then to the fingertips.

Jiang Huaiyang's heart tightened, and he grabbed her fingertips.

He looked at her silently for a long time before saying, "Where did you go today?"

"Have a banquet and enjoy the scenery," she paused, then sneered, "If your majesty wants to know, just arrange a few eyes and ears around the concubine, why bother? Isn't this the usual method of your majesty?"

She spoke slowly, but her voice was cold.She seemed to be thinner than last time, with cloudy temples and thick waist, a pair of weeping eyes, like willow branches in the wind, weak but tough.

His expression darkened a bit.

"lie."

This time the banquet was clearly just a cover-up, the ladies who came were there to deceive others, and none of the rest of the young men came here to see others.

The chill climbed up her spine, she shivered, but she still met his gaze and said, "Your Majesty admits it?" Sure enough, he still planted someone beside her.

That being the case, last time when he said that he was removing the people around her, was it also coaxing her?In fact, what the Empress Dowager did was a little indulged by him.Only in this way can we grasp the empress dowager's handle and have a reason to put her to death without getting a name of unfilial piety.

She didn't want to be suspicious, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt that he could really do such a thing.

Jiang Huaiyang didn't know what she was thinking, but after that he knew she didn't like it, and he really never put eyes and ears around her.

He squeezed into her hand, held her hand tightly, sighed with lowered eyes, and said, "Don't talk to me in such a tone." This mouth can express tenderness, even if you don't want to. Sneering words, every sentence pokes people's hearts.

She didn't take his words to heart, and after struggling a few times, he gripped him even tighter.Looking away, I caught a glimpse of hot tea on the table.

She couldn't stay here any longer, and she could hardly hold back her tears.Feeling anxious, he picked up the cup of hot tea and poured it on his hand.

The movement of her hand was faster than she thought in her heart. When she touched the wall of the cup and felt the unusual heat, the water was already pouring out.

His hands were quickly stained red.

She couldn't help splashing some on her own hands, and the hot tea made her snort uncontrollably.He finally let go.

He thought that this high-ranking king was about to get angry, but he didn't seem to care about the redness in his hand at all, and he was not affected by it at all, and instead held her hand.

"Is it hot?" He frowned.

Before she could answer, his icy kisses fell and covered her wounds.In fact, because his hand was on her just now, and she splashed it on him again, the amount she splashed was far less than his, so now it doesn't hurt anymore.

Staring fixedly at the red back of his hand, he suddenly felt sour on the tip of his nose.

He frowned even more, and wiped away the tears from her eyes with his fingertips, "Why are you crying?"

Only then did Ruan Yuyi feel the wetness on her face.There were some thin calluses on his fingertips, which rubbed against the soft skin under his eyes, making her keep hiding.

He was obviously taken aback, placed her on the soft couch, and left.

Her cheeks leaned against the pillow, and for some reason, her tears couldn't be stopped, dripping out violently, and wet a large area.

Perhaps Jiang Huaiyang ordered something, he walked forward, and Mu Xiang came in with a copper basin on his back, filled with warm water.She stood up and saw a vague face reflected on the bottom of the copper basin.

After removing the hairpin and cleaning her face, her tears finally stopped.

Mu Xiang waited on the bed and lowered the curtains. She was probably a little tired, and as soon as she touched the pillow, she fell into a dream.Therefore, she didn't notice the figure in Xuanyi standing beside her bed in the middle of the night.
.
When she woke up the next morning, she sat in front of the mirror and let Mu Xiang pull her hair.

Mu Xiang hesitated for a long time, and asked softly, "Did miss sleep well yesterday?"

She nodded wildly.Memories about the hot tea yesterday surged up uncontrollably, like a stalk protruding from the ground was pulled out, implicating thousands of roots from the ground.

She treated him like yesterday, and he probably won't come again.While she breathed a sigh of relief, she felt a little stuck in her heart.

Seeing her nodding, Mu Xiang finally let go of the heart that had been hanging all night.

After dressing up, Ruan Yuyi took Mu Xiang to Mrs. Ruan's side to pay her respects.

Mrs. Ruan had been awake for some time, she was sitting by the desk, holding a net, when she saw her coming, she waved her to go over with a smile.

Xu Shi was infected, she couldn't help but also smiled, and her mood was much more relaxed.

After a while, my brother and the others also came.Xian'er was even more chattering, relying on being a daughter, she held Ruan Yuyi's arm and acted like a spoiled child, while quietly giving Ruan Zhuoying a very provocative look.

Ruan Yuyi was disturbed by her and had no time to think about other things.
.
Leaving Mrs. Ruan's courtyard, I saw Meng Jin waiting in front of the gate of his own courtyard. He was standing under the tree in front of the courtyard with his hands behind his back, looking up slightly at the lush and moist leaves on the tree, which made people feel that he was almost falling. In a moment, some verses will be chanted.

Ruan Yuyi hesitated for a while before stepping forward, "Why are you here, sir?"

Hearing the sound, he tilted his head and let out a warm smile, but the words in his mouth were straightforward, "I am waiting for you, my lady."

She instinctively felt that his eyes were wrong, and she couldn't answer for a while, but fortunately he continued, "I don't know if the empress might appreciate it, why don't I go out of the mansion for a while?"

She subconsciously wanted to refuse, thinking that there might be Jiang Huaiyang's eyeliner by her side, her heart skipped a beat.

Meng Jin saw that she had been silent for a long time, and added, "I seem to be depressed when I see my mother, and I have been thinking about it for a long time. I have a good place to go, the scenery is very beautiful, and I want to enjoy it with my mother."

"Sorry, I was being rude—"

"Mr. enjoys the scenery generously, but he is disrespectful." She raised her head and smiled back.

Meng Jin was stunned for a moment.Maybe she doesn't know it, but her features are curved, bright eyes and white teeth, as if she has a face carved from fragrant jade, even unintentionally, she is extraordinarily seductive.

"gentlemen?"

He came back to his senses and gestured, "Please."

Ruan Yuyi walked forward generously, with her skirt rippling like a flower behind her.
.
Since I was bored, I didn't prepare chariots and horses, I just told the mansion and picked a quieter place to go.

Before leaving, Meng Jin sent his maid to get the fence, and asked her to wear it, saying: "If your mother doesn't cover her face, I'm afraid it will be uneasy on the way."

"Sir, you are joking." She took it and put it on without thinking too much.

Through the white gauze, only some shadowy figures can be seen.
