The most beloved princess in the prosperous world

Chapter 99 Goodbye Longyan
"Tell me, what exactly do you want?" Upon entering the study, Ruan Song pointed to a table for Ruan Fu to sit down, and asked directly.

After traveling for a long time, Ruan Fu also had a trace of exhaustion in her eyebrows and eyes. She smiled loosely, "What does father want me to say?"

Ruan Song's complexion was a little bit bad, "Don't play dumb with me, you made Da Wen so popular in the street today, will you continue to stir up major events in Yongjia City with your identity as Meng Changqing?"

"What's going on in Yongjia City now?" Ruan Fu asked back, seeing Ruan Song's unhappy expression, she continued, "Besides, I also want to give advice to my father. Where are you going to put your daughter?"

Ruan Fu's voice was calm enough, but it could easily arouse Ruan Song's anger, but he couldn't do anything to her.

After a long time, Ruan Song sat down on the desk chair, sighed and said, "The situation has become like this today, what do you plan to do in the future?"

"No matter what the situation has become, and no matter who Meng Changqing is, Ruan Fu is still Ruan Fu, this will not change." Ruan Fu said.

"Can you guarantee that you will not intervene in the affairs of Yongjia City in the future?" Ruan Song was a little surprised.

Ruan Fu seemed to laugh, and looked up at Ruan Song, but Ruan Song could no longer see the grace and restraint she had when she first returned to Yongjia, Ruan Fu said, "I never said that I would not interfere in the affairs of Yongjia City. matter?"

"You..." Ruan Song choked for a while, and after a sigh of relief, he said, "No matter what, no matter you are Meng Changqing or Bai Yinbing, since you are the daughter of the Ruan family, you should put the house as the most important thing when you do things in the future. If you do, you will understand."

Ruan Fu lowered his eyes, "Does father want me to stand in line?"

Ruan Song said, "Now the emperor has many sons, and the wings of the princes have gradually formed. Within the royal family, the battle for succession is inevitable. Your second sister has married the king of Chu and will get married in August this year. It has nothing to do with standing in line. Now we The Ruan family is on the same boat as the King of Chu, we can only choose to assist the King of Chu, besides, since you are so familiar with the situation in the world, you should know the strength of the King of Chu among the princes and the support of the military is the strongest."

Ruan Song thought while thinking, maybe after such a long time, when he first knew that Ruan Fu was Meng Changqing, he couldn't accept it. , There have been regrets, disappointments, and even ruthless attempts to control Ruan Fu by some means in an instant, but he still didn't do anything afterwards, and now he has accepted this fact calmly.

No matter what the original decision was, at least, if possible, Ruan Song didn't want to ruin this smart daughter.

Ruan Fu glanced at the contemplation hidden in Ruan Song's heart, and after a few times getting along, she still doesn't know her father, she said, "Father wants me to assist the King of Chu?"

Ruan Song nodded in a deep voice, "You only have this choice."

Ruan Fu seemed to be smiling, "What if I say I don't want to?"

"I don't want to?" Ruan Song wasn't too surprised by this answer. Instead, it was like an elder giving advice to a younger generation, "Fu'er, although you, Meng Changqing, are very famous, but now you are the daughter of the Ruan family. If you don't want to, just be your eldest lady at home. As a father, he naturally has no objection. Any gossip outside, as a father, can smooth it over for you. However, if you have other ideas, no matter how famous Meng Changqing is, You won’t be able to gain the other person’s total trust.”

After a pause, Ruan Song continued, "With your intelligence, you may have already realized that our Ruan family and the King of Chu are on the same boat. This is an unavoidable choice in the court. Today's study It's just us father and daughter, and we don't have to go around the bush. Supporting the King of Chu for the father is something that the court has already tacitly understood. Now that you are back, next time, even if those sour scholars in the court cannot accept you, they still oppose you. No one will fight for you and try to pull you into the camp. If you don’t want to just be a lady, you can’t be alone. Otherwise, you are not facing one or two enemies, but all of them. And if you If you don’t choose King Chu, you won’t have a better choice.”

Ruan Fu looked at Ruan Song, with a look in his eyes that was too late to be caught, "It seems that the king of Chu has extraordinary trust in his father."

Ruan Song narrowed his eyes, this daughter was too sensitive, she was already trying to trick him.

"You know, the struggle for imperial power, no matter who it is, may become the next cannon fodder. Since you are a man of the world, even if you are a woman, I don't want to ruin your future as a father."

Ruan Fu smiled softly, "Thank you for your father's teaching today. It's just that my daughter has gone out for a few years and stayed with Master, and she also understands a truth that all scholars in the world know, being a minister and being loyal to the emperor."

Ruan Song's face sank, being told by his daughter how to be a minister, where should he put his face?
But looking at Ruan Fu, Ruan Song still narrowed his eyes and said, "You mean, you don't help anyone?"

Ruan Fu was noncommittal, and shook his head slightly, "Father, I still have to advise you, don't act too hastily."

"You are so young, what do you know?" Ruan Song snorted coldly.

Ruan Fu looked at Ruan Song with a smile that was not a smile. This kind of expression was completely the attitude of one politician facing another politician. Although Ruan Song didn't say anything today, it was just what he said in the study, which already put his father The boundaries between women were clearly defined, and Ruan Fu never had any hope at all. After a long time, Ruan Fu smiled under Ruan Song's eyes that were gradually sinking, "There is one thing that I have never understood."

Ruan Fu's eyes darkened, and he looked at Ruan Fu, "Say it."

But there was a little more vigilance in his tone.

Ruan Fu chuckled lightly, but there was no smile in his voice, "Whether it is in the court or among the people, King Jin's reputation is far higher than that of King Chu. Who in the court of Chen Kingdom knows that His Majesty favors Jin intentionally or unintentionally?" Wang, sooner or later the king of Jin will become the king of the kings is the consensus among most people, I am very curious, father, why did he abandon the king of Jin and choose the king of Chu."

Ruan Song's pupils shrank, and his voice was low, "Is the relationship between the court and the court so simple as you think?"

Ruan Fu didn't care either, but the corners of his lips hooked up, but his eyes swept to a bamboo tube made of bamboo and wood on Ruan Song's table, with some strange patterns carved on it, Ruan Fu couldn't help being stunned for a moment. She has always paid attention to interesting things.

On the contrary, Ruan Song followed her gaze, lowered his eyes, and said, "Think about what you're going to say today. Since you are not an ordinary daughter in a boudoir, I won't treat you as a girl who doesn't understand anything in the future."

Ruan Song's opening turned Ruan Fu's gaze back. Although she nodded, she didn't give Ruan Song any hope, "I hope my father will think about it too."

"You!" Ruan Song stood up, a little angry.

But he looked at Ruan Fu's calm expression, but he couldn't say anything more to criticize him, "Fur, I think you know the princes of the royal family, you should know their methods."

Ruan Fu smiled, "So, when faced with such a choice, how would father choose?"

Ruan Song pursed his lips. In Ruan Fu's sight, he couldn't give an answer for a long time. Ruan Fu didn't seem to care, and just said, "Thank you for your teaching today, but since I was young, the road I walked and the things I did Every choice has always been made by myself.”

Therefore, even if Ruan Song is his father, he has never had the right to interfere.

"If there is nothing wrong, my daughter will leave first." Ruan Fu turned around after speaking.

When Ruan Fu was about to step out of the door of the study, Ruan Song suddenly stopped her, "Fu'er, how did you come here in those years?"

In fact, what he asked was how Ruan Fu grew from a timid child to the world-famous Meng Changqing in those years.

Ruan Fu's footsteps paused, she turned her head, "Father, despair can change people."

These words were not for her own sake, but for the fragile little girl who had been silently buried in the south five years ago.

Only Ruan Song looked at Ruan Fu's leaving back, and there was a look of complexity in his eyes. He put his hands on the desk, and there seemed to be some forbearance in his eyes, but it gradually dissipated in the end.

The news that Ruan Fu has returned to the mansion is naturally known to everyone in the mansion. Therefore, not long after she left Ruan Song's study room, she saw Ruan Yan wearing a thick fox fur coat in the garden with the cold wind in winter. The fur cape was waiting for her on her way back to the yard.

Seeing Ruan Fu appear, Ruan Yan also stood up and walked towards Ruan Fu, "Elder Sister."

Ruan Fu nodded, as a greeting, "Second Sister."

"Big sister is finally back. Yan'er is inconvenient and couldn't come out of the house to welcome her. I hope big sister will forgive me." Ruan Yan said.

"No need, since you are not in good health, take it with you in the mansion. You and I are not at the point where you need to go out of the mansion to meet me." Ruan Fu said lightly.

She spoke so directly that Ruan Yan was stunned for a while, seeing that Ruan Fu didn't intend to say more, she could only say, "Big sister is tired, so Yan'er won't stay." After finishing speaking, she already turned sideways to make way.

Ruan Fu nodded, glanced at her and then continued to go in the direction of Qianyunju.

Only Ruan Yan still stopped at the same spot, looking at Ruan Fu's back, as if lost in thought.

To her, the cold wind in winter seems to be gone. Now that she has seen Ruan Fu after three months, she faintly feels that something is different. I don’t know if it’s because she knows that she is the famous Meng Changqing. It is because of some changes in Ruan Phuc during this period of time.

A layer of self-mockery flashed across Ruan Yan's lips. In the past few months, because of her engagement to the King of Chu, she had been in and out of Concubine Qi's Lama Temple several times, but Concubine Qi had secretly asked her about Ruan Fu many times, but she She felt extremely sour in her heart, and... her father's attitude, she could also be sensitive to the changes during this time.

If you never know what it's like to fall into despair again after hope rises, Ruan Yang has understood it thoroughly in the past few months, but even so, she still wants to grasp the last hope of living.

"Sister, she is not only the eldest lady of our prime minister's mansion, but also a famous scholar Meng Changqing, how can she think highly of us?" Ruan Shu appeared at some time, stood aside, and said in a strange tone.

Ruan Yan turned her head and smiled, "Third sister, the eldest sister is our sister after all, so don't talk about it in the future."

Ruan Shu snorted coldly, looked at Ruan Yan's pure and peaceful expression, and said after a long time, "If I don't like Ruan Fu, I just don't like it. People feel sick."

Ruan Yan's complexion changed suddenly, Ruan Shu just left this sentence and turned to leave.

Only Ruan Yan stayed where she was with a dark complexion.

-

"Miss Ruan, please come in with this old slave." An Cheng bowed slightly and said to Ruan Fu.

Ruan Fu has been waiting outside the imperial study room for nearly half an hour, and it snowed last night, dyeing the whole palace white. Although she is already warm enough, the imperial study room is ventilated on all sides, standing for a long time, It is also true that the soles of the feet feel cold.

But is there any way, Ruan Fu raised his eyebrows slightly, after all he "deceived the emperor" first, His Majesty the Emperor, no matter what he had to coerce.

"Thank you, Father-in-law." Ruan Fu smiled, and after finishing speaking, he followed An Cheng into the imperial study.

An Cheng only nodded lightly. The last time I saw Ruan Fu was at the recruiting hall, but at that time, the young man could not see the shadow of the girl now. It was obvious that Ruan Fu was raped by Yuan Chang. Di Hang was outside the imperial study room, but his face remained calm at this moment, and he couldn't help but admire secretly in his heart, he deserves to be Meng Changqing.

Although it was time to rest, Emperor Yuanchang looked like he was not idle at all. There was a memorial on the imperial case in the imperial study. When she entered, Emperor Yuanchang did not raise his eyes to look at her. Dots on the notebook, the movement is fast, and the notebook is picked up from time to time, and the person leans back, it seems that it is caused by the lack of eyesight after reading the notebook for a long time.

Ruan Fu lowered his eyes and stepped forward, "Ms. Ruan Fu, I have seen Your Majesty."

Emperor Yuanchang hummed lightly, his eyes still did not leave Zhezi, and the pen in his hand did not stop.

However, Ruan Fu had no choice but to kneel and kneel and squat at the lower head of the imperial case.

Looking at it like this, An Cheng felt a little worried. His Royal Highness Jin Wang had the intention of protecting the man in front of him, and Emperor Yuanchang obviously wanted to let the man in front of him hang out, in case the King of Jin knew about it , which caused some dissatisfaction between the father and son, isn't it worth the candle?

An Cheng thought about it, and although Ruan Fu's expression showed no arrogance or dissatisfaction, he coughed lightly, "Your Majesty, Miss Ruan is here."

Emperor Yuanchang raised his head from the memorial, and took a cool look at the cautious An Cheng, who was terrified again.

Only then did Emperor Yuanchang drop the folder in his hand, looked down at Ruan Fu who was still curtseying, and said after a moment of silence, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Yuanchang couldn't see any emotion on his face, and after looking at Ruan Fu again, he said, "Ruan Fu, are you guilty?"

Ruan Fu stood up straight. Although she didn't meet Emperor Yuanchang, who was trying to exude his coercion, she could clearly feel a subtle atmosphere. She took a sip of her spring and said after a long time, " Please Your Majesty redeem my servant for being dull, I don't know what crime my servant has to confess?"

Emperor Yuanchang snorted coldly, looked at the woman who was neither humble nor overbearing, and said angrily, "You deceive the emperor in the name of Bai Yinbing, and now no one in Yongjia City knows that Bai Yinbing is Meng Changqing, and Meng Changqing is you Ruan Fu. Do you still want to deny it now?"

"Your Majesty, my servant dares to be brave. Those who don't know what she has done are not guilty. When my servant was drinking ice for nothing, Your Majesty has never shown her status as the Son of Heaven. If this is the case, she is deceiving the emperor. There is nothing I can say about this."

After hearing this, Emperor Yuanchang seemed to be stunned for a while before he realized that he was put together by this girl. He first brought up the so-called bullying that he met in the recruiting hall that day. Now she said so, it is reasonable, but he The emperor "got it wrong".

After being stunned for a while, Emperor Yuanchang said seriously, "Bold, how dare you refute me?"

This bold sound could not be said to contain momentum, even An Cheng's heart skipped a beat, and there were some small movements outside the imperial study room.

Ruan Fu was speechless, just stood quietly in the hall with his head down, as if he was not afraid of Emperor Yuanchang's anger at all.

After Emperor Yuanchang yelled out angrily, he observed Ruan Fu for a while, but saw that she was still calm, and couldn't help but lose the battle. Everyone said that Jiang was still old and spicy, but this woman who wandered among the countries in the Central Plains He is better than several of his sons.

In this way, in an instant, Emperor Yuanchang could not but feel a subtle jealousy towards an old friend who had become Ruan Phuc's stepfather.

After coughing lightly, Emperor Yuanchang waved his hand, "That's all, girl, don't put on such an old-fashioned and calm appearance for me."

An Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and Ruan Fu said lightly, "Go back to Your Majesty, my daughter, everything is as usual."

Emperor Yuanchang snorted softly, and had already stepped down from the imperial case, "Come with me, I was left outside for half an hour, if you go back and complain to that old man, I will still have a headache!"

Ruan Fu had no choice but to follow, but felt that Emperor Yuanchang was indeed as good as what his adoptive father said, but even so, there are differences between monarchs and ministers, and there are some things that cannot be overdone. is her.

Following a few steps behind Emperor Yuanchang, Ruan Fu hurriedly said, "I dare not."

"Don't dare, Meng Changqing, is there anything you dare not do? It's been almost a year since you returned to Yongjia. I don't believe it. Before you came back, Bai Moru didn't ask you to come see me." Emperor Yuanchang turned his head and glanced After glancing at Ruan Fu, he sat down on the couch in the Nuan Pavilion next to the Imperial Study Room. The Nuan Pavilion was already angry and full of warmth.

Emperor Yuanchang pointed to Ruan Tang on the opposite side, and motioned Ruan Fu to sit down. Ruan Fu knew that this woman was extraordinary, so he couldn't sit down, and no matter who she was, she was not qualified to sit with the emperor.

He just thanked Emperor Yuanchang with a pleasant smile, and stood still.

Emperor Yuanchang looked at her again, and then signaled An Cheng to bring a stool to Ruan Fu, and Ruan Fu sat down on the stool An Cheng brought over.

Only then did Emperor Yuanchang continue to speak, "Tell me, why haven't you come to see me after such a long time, do you really need someone to ask you to come to see me?"

Ruan Fu coughed lightly and said, "I don't know if Your Majesty still remembers the bet that the adoptive father made with His Majesty when he left Yongjia 20 years ago."

After Ruan Fu's reminder, some old things that were as old as old wine came back to his mind again, and there was a huge wave in his heart.

At that time, Bai Moru and him were still in high spirits, even if some irreversible things happened, it never affected the friendship between the two.

That complete trust has not been eroded by the imperial power.

Emperor Yuanchang also thought about whether it was because the time was too short and the imperial power had not yet eroded the friendship, or Mo Ru had too much insight into the way of the emperor through the ages, and he withdrew before reaching the torrent.

The day Bai Moru left Yongjia was the time when the wind was blowing. At that time, parting was already doomed, and there was no possibility of change. He still remembered that before Bai Moru left, he made a bet with him. Might as well return Chen Kingdom as a genius in the world, but when the time comes, it just depends on whether he, as the emperor, can observe his talents.

At the time, it was a tacit bet.

Emperor Yuanchang recalled the past, feeling a sense of loss in his heart, unexpectedly he sighed softly in front of Ruan Fu.

Then he shook his head slightly, "It is true that there is such a thing, the vicissitudes of the world, the changes of Baiyun Canggou, but I have forgotten many things."

Ruan Fu couldn't tell what kind of emotion was in Emperor Yuanchang's voice. Apart from pity and pity, it seemed that there was something in it, at least in the eyes of Ruan Fu today.

It was just a sigh, Emperor Yuanchang looked at Ruan Fu, "Why don't you tell me what to bring to me?"

Ruan Fu was not surprised that Emperor Yuanchang asked this question, but he just took out an object wrapped in high-quality silk from his sleeve, and gave it to Emperor Yuanchang with both hands.

Emperor Yuanchang stretched out his hand, paused, and then decisively took it from Ruan Fu's hand. Without hesitation, he opened the silk and satin in front of Ruan Fu, and took out a piece of pure white, engraved with a unicorn. jade pendant.

Emperor Yuanchang stared at the jade pendant for a long time, and then sighed lightly again. This time, he was obviously disappointed.

He put away the jade pendant, glanced at Ruan Fudao, "Over the years, Meng Changqing's fame has spread all over the world. I see you appearing in the Central Plains or some corner in the south every now and then to play tricks. Come to think of it, the time you spent on Nanshan Not many."

Ruan Fu nodded, and a look of pity flashed in his eyes, "It's not much, but it's not too little."

"Tell me, what happened to those two couples on Nanshan."

Emperor Yuanchang might have asked her this, but since the emperor asked, Ruan Fu naturally wanted to say that he should tell Emperor Yuanchang what he knew about Bai Moru and Leng Yueying's life on Nanshan. Some.

This said, it was less than half an hour, almost noon.

After hearing this, Emperor Yuanchang felt nostalgia for the past in his heart, and he seemed to laugh, "That old man, I didn't expect that in the end, he would live a happier life than me."

When Emperor Yuanchang said this, Ruan Fu felt the sadness in his tone, but at this time, she naturally would not accept an emperor's sigh about her unknown past.

"How is your adoptive mother?" Emperor Yuanchang asked again.

"Nanshan has a very good Fengshui climate, which is very suitable for the mother-in-law to raise her body. Now it is considered very good. I can leave Nanshan for a month at most, but I still can't leave for a long time." Ruan Fu said.

Emperor Yuanchang nodded, "That's all right, so she can feel relieved."

Ruan Fu couldn't tell who she was, but said, "With the adoptive father, the adoptive mother should be fine."

Emperor Yuanchang glanced at Ruan Fu, and recalled the past as if suddenly, "Back then, I also made an agreement with the queen that Nanshan Fengshui treasure land, when the big event in the court, I would take the queen to Nanshan, but Unexpectedly, after all, the Queen will not be able to wait until the affairs of the court are over."

Facing the emperor who was suddenly immersed in nostalgia for the past, Ruan Fu remained silent. Emperor Yuanchang still had some sadness in his tone, which made the emperor not seem so cold, and also a little more cold than the emperor. The love that can be seen in the body.

Anyone who knows something about the past knows that the affection between Emperor Yuanchang and the former empress can be passed down as a good story.

Emperor Yuanchang has always been uncertain, even though there are many old foxes in the court, they may not dare to say that they have figured out Emperor Yuanchang's temper, so he quickly looked calm and did not say a word or say anything. Ruan Fu, who would say nothing, said, "Since you have returned to Yongjia, what are your plans?"

Ruan Fu pulled his lips lightly, "I regret the unfinished business of my adoptive father."

"Although you are Meng Changqing, in the eyes of the world, Meng Changqing is a man. Now, you are a woman. Even Meng Changqing can't stand up to the rumors." Emperor Yuanchang frowned.

It's not that he doesn't trust Ruan Fu's ability, but that some abilities and some things that exist naturally cannot complement each other.

"Your Majesty, since my daughter has returned to Chen Kingdom, she will not always show her identity as Meng Changqing. What's more, when this identity appears frequently, there will be more and more connections with him. If you find out that it is causing unnecessary trouble, it is better to let those who should understand understand it from the beginning." Ruan Fu said.

Hearing this, Emperor Yuanchang still frowned, but nodded, "You are right." Then he took a leisurely look at Ruan Fu, "I heard that when you came back yesterday, you gave Wen Liangzhe When the street is sick."

Ruan Fu's expression was natural, "Is that so, why did I hear that it was because Mr. Wen was old and couldn't stand the cold at the gate of the city? If it was really the reason, I would have personally come to the door to apologize."

Emperor Yuanchang Langsheng smiled, because although Ruan Fu said so, there was no apology in his tone. Regarding Ruan Fu's actions when he became ill when he was in college, Yuanchang Emperor seemed to only mention it, and did not go into details. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "It's good that you know what's in your mind. The situation in the court is still complicated. Although it has been rectified, it still has some atmosphere."

Ruan Fu didn't answer, but Emperor Yuanchang said, "Although you are Ruan Song's daughter, and even have some connections with the outside world that I don't know about, since I don't care about you, you are indeed capable. Willing to believe in you, if you can do for Chen country, then do it."

Emperor Yuanchang's words were not harsh, but Ruan Fu knew in his heart that even though Emperor Yuanchang said he believed in himself, he did not fully believe it, and only said seriously, "My daughter understands."

Emperor Yuanchang nodded, looked at Ruan Fu with a smile and said, "Girl, don't worry, don't be nervous, I won't do anything to you."

Ruan Fu silently glanced at Emperor Yuanchang, and Emperor Yuanchang's tone was also relaxed, but what he said did not make Ruan Fu feel relaxed, "Since Mo Ru has cultivated a disciple, he will know why Mo Ru did it 20 years ago. You will leave Chen Kingdom. Back then, Chen Kingdom was not yet stable, and the reforms failed. You also know the consequences. At that time, the timing was not ripe. Now, this matter is already being done. Now that you come back, you will start from this matter. I don’t care. Are you someone's daughter?" After that, Emperor Yuanchang glanced at Ruan Fu again, "If you choose this path, you are destined to stand on the opposite side with some people."

Ruan Fu felt a little helpless. His Majesty's words were taken for granted, even though she and Ruan Song didn't have much father-daughter relationship.

In the end, a wry smile rose from the corner of his lips, and he felt a little clear in his heart. Emperor Yuanchang actually knew many things, but he was also an emperor, and she might have some ulterior motives for letting her start this matter.

She didn't hesitate, nor refused, "My daughter understands."

"It's good to understand." Emperor Yuanchang said leisurely, "An Cheng, the chess game is here. You and Mo Ru didn't finish playing the chess back then. Now you can take over."

"Your Majesty, the minister's daughter is not good at chess." Ruan Fu said, this is indeed the truth, at least, compared to Yifu, she is really not very good.

Emperor Yuanchang snorted coldly, "I won't behead you if you lose, just do whatever you want."

What else could be said, Ruan Fu had no choice but to accept it with a smile on his face.

When Yu Wujue asked to see him, it was already the time when Ruan Fu and Emperor Yuanchang were fighting peacefully on the chessboard, and when he heard Yu Wujue's request to see him outside, Emperor Yuanchang, who had always wished for this son-in-law to come see him more often, glanced at him. After glancing at Ruan Fu, he said nonchalantly, "It's the New Year's Eve, why doesn't he just stay in his house and wait for all the officials to celebrate the New Year, what is he doing here to see me?"

After all, another chess piece fell.

Ruan Fu quietly stood aside, as if he didn't know anything.

But An Cheng couldn't answer Emperor Yuanchang's words. Emperor Yuanchang said, "Tell him to go back if he has nothing to do. I'm busy and don't have time to see him."

An Cheng had no choice but to go out to deliver the decree, but he came back soon, "His Majesty King Jin said that it is natural to celebrate birthdays at the end of the year. Since His Majesty is busy, His Highness will wait outside the palace."

Emperor Yuanchang ignored it and continued to play chess with Ruan Fu. After dropping two pieces, he suddenly said angrily, "Tell him to get out!"

Ruan Fu watched all this silently, but felt that Yu Wujue and Emperor Yuanchang might not be very similar, but King Yi was more like Emperor Yuanchang.

Yu Wujue came in. As soon as he entered the Nuan Pavilion, he saw Ruan Fu who was playing chess with Emperor Yuanchang. There was a look in his eyes, and Ruan Fu also got up and saluted normally, "I have seen the prince."

Emperor Yuanchang looked at the two of them, and then said to Ruan Fu, "Girl, Ning Yang is also in the palace, and she has been talking about you for a long time, you go and see her."

What else could Ruan Fu say, Yu Wujue only nodded his head slightly, with a look of tenderness in his eyes, Ruan Fu had no choice but to leave, and An Cheng led him away from the imperial study.

Inside the Nuan Pavilion, there were only father and son left. Emperor Yuanchang glanced at Yu Wujue. He had only seen Yu Wujue yesterday. Over the years, how could he see him for two consecutive days? Why did the Royal Study Room get frequent visits from His Royal Highness King Jin, just pointing to Ruan Fu's previous position, "The girl is gone, her son, you come and hold it."

"Yes." Yu Wujue stepped forward and sat down on Ruan Fu's previous seat.

"I won't do anything to people again, what are you doing, even I don't believe it?"

"I dare not." A faint voice.

After losing two more sons, Emperor Yuanchang sighed, "Jue'er, that girl is not suitable for you."

Yu Wujue held the hand of the chess piece for a moment, but the chess piece did not land on the board. He raised his head, looked at Emperor Yuanchang with a serious expression, and slowly put the chess piece back into the chess box. There was no sound. What emotion, "Why?"

-

After Ruan Fu was taken out of the imperial study by An Cheng, he went directly to the palace behind the imperial study. Today is [-], and the royal family will have a banquet in the royal family in the evening. Naturally, Princess Ningyang has already returned to the palace early in the morning.

However, before arriving at Princess Ningyang's palace, she had already seen Princess Jin'an, seeing Ruan Fu, Princess Jin'an still had some surprises, but she was even more excited, "Afu!"

Ruan Fu smiled, "Jin'an."

The leader of the Jin'an group had already waved his hand and said to An Cheng, "Eunuch An Cheng, go back, I'm enough for Afu."

An Cheng naturally did not refuse, "In this way, there will be Princess Lao." After finishing speaking, he nodded to Ruan Fu and left again.

When there were only two of them, the smile on Princess Jin'an's face became even bigger, "Long time no see, Afu, you disappeared for no reason at the beginning, and later we heard some news, which really worried us for a long time , My mother is almost going to ask His Majesty to send someone to investigate your news."

When Ruan Fu heard Jin An mention this matter, he could only say, "It happened suddenly, I'm really sorry."

At this time, Princess Jin'an reacted from the joy of seeing his friend, but his face became a little embarrassed, "Look at me, I forgot, you are not an ordinary woman."

Ruan Fu sighed, and said with a wry smile, "Could it be that Jin An and I are separated because of something else behind Ruan Fu's back?"

In these words, the element of jokes is more serious. The princess of Jin'an originally felt a little sense of sadness in her heart, but it disappeared quickly. She held Ruan Fu's hand and said, "Isn't it? I miss Jin'an." How can He De be able to become handkerchief friends with Meng Changqing, a well-known scholar in the world, and this is probably the only one in this world."

Ruan Fu also smiled, "After all, you are the princess of Jin'an."

Princess Jin'an smiled cheerfully, "It doesn't matter if you are Meng Changqing, Ruan Fu or that Bai Yinbing, in short, from now on, you will only be my princess' friend. Whether you dislike it or not, this cannot be changed. It's a fact."

Ruan Fu's tone was a bit embarrassed, "So, I have no choice but to be your friend."

Saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled, but they both burst out laughing.

Jin An smiled and said, "Let's go, ever since the elder brother and the elder sister-in-law came back, Wuyang found out that the secret brother Meng was Aunt Afu, but he had been wondering for a long time, and insisted on arguing to see you, at this time , it’s rare for the little girl to be angry with the emperor’s sister-in-law and not let her see you, seeing you today, she will definitely be very happy.”

Thinking of Wuyang, Ruan Fu also smiled, and went in another direction with Princess Jin'an.

After Ruan Fu and Jin An left, a luxuriously dressed young woman walked out of a rockery next to the garden. She was over thirty but not yet forty. Her well-maintained face made her look young, but She was dressed in luxurious palace attire, which made her look extraordinarily graceful.

Seeing her silently looking at the direction where Ruan Fu and Jin An left for a long time, the palace maid couldn't help reminding, "Your Majesty, are we still going to visit the Eldest Princess?"

The concubine curled her lips into a smile, "Come back, Eldest Princess, at this time, I don't have time to see Ben Gong anymore."

"Yes……"

After saying that, the group of people turned their heads and went back the same way.

Seeing Wu Yang looking at him with a tangled face, as if he was in trouble, Ruan Fu couldn't help feeling amused.

Princess Jin'an couldn't help covering her lips and smiling, "Don't Wuyang know Aunt Afu?"

"Mother and concubine said that Aunt Afu is Brother Meng, but Brother Meng is obviously an older brother, so how could she be Aunt Afu?" Although Wu Yang was still young, when Wu Yang opened his mouth, he seemed a bit contemplative and his tone was mature.

Ruan Fu couldn't help bending down and pinching Wu Yang's face, "Brother Meng is Aunt Afu..."

Before Ruan Fu finished speaking, he was about to say something to let Wuyang understand why Aunt Afu and Brother Meng were the same person, but Wuyang curled his lips and wrinkled his face, and in an instant, the whole People burst into tears.

The sudden situation startled Ruan Fu, Princess Jin'an was also taken aback, and then immediately realized, "Wuyang, what's wrong."

"Wuu...Aunt Afu...Aunt Afu is a liar." Wuyang choked up while crying, and this burst of crying attracted all the surrounding maids. After all, Princess Wuyang made a lot of noise, but And never before.

Princess Jin'an and Ruan Fu, who was at a loss, looked at each other and smiled, and they understood the whole story. She thought she was wronged by such a little girl, so she had to wave back the maid who came up because of Wu Yang's crying, "here It's okay, as long as the princess is with me."

Wuyang was still protesting, "Woooo... Aunt Afu lied to Wuyang, Wuyang doesn't...don't like Aunt Afu..."

Ruan Fu had no choice but to smile bitterly. She really didn't have much experience in coaxing children. She grew up so big, and she only treated Wuyang. However, Princess Jin'an was overjoyed, hugged Wuyang, and said with a smile, "My little ancestor , why are you so wronged?"

Wu Yangzhong cried aloud for a while, his voice gradually subsided and gradually choked up, he turned his face and lay on the shoulder of Princess Jin'an, intending to stop looking at Ruan Fu.

Princess Jin'an and Ruan Fu smiled, pretending to say, "Yes, we don't like Aunt Afu anymore, we don't want Aunt Afu anymore."

When Wu Yang heard what Princess Jin'an said, his head moved, and he seemed to be a little shaken.

Ruan Fu smiled and said, "Aunt Afu was wrong. Aunt Afu went to ask His Majesty for a crime. Wu Yang was upset and she will be punished."

Upon hearing what Ruan Fu said, Wu Yang immediately turned his face away from Princess Jin'an's shoulders, although his eyes were still red, but there were no more tears, "Don't want Grandpa to punish Aunt Afu."

"But Aunt Afu lied to Wuyang? Wuyang doesn't like Aunt Afu anymore." Ruan Furen said with a smile.

Wuyang's face was wrinkled again, and he whispered, "Wuyang doesn't dislike Aunt Afu, Wuyang is angry."

"That's it..." Ruan Fu blinked, "It's Aunt Afu's fault to make such a cute Wuyang angry."

Wu Yang pouted, "Wu Yang is not angry with Aunt Afu, Aunt Afu should not go to Grandpa Huang, Grandpa Huang will beat people."

Ruan Fu lowered his face, as if he wanted to think about it. Seeing this, Wu Yang stretched out his hand towards Ruan Fu, "Aunt Afu, hug..."

The soft voice and the choking after crying made Ruan Fu's heart melt, so he stretched out his hand to hug Wu Yang from Princess Jin'an's hand, Wu Yang immediately hugged Ruan Fu's neck, and let out a cry Hee hee laughter.

The change was so obvious that both of them couldn't help but shook their heads, but they both knew what the little girl said earlier, probably because they knew that Brother Meng, whom they had been thinking about for so long, was actually someone they had known for a long time. It's just the grievance caused by Aunt Fu.

But Wu Yang looked at Ruan Fu for a long time, and then said, "Aunt Afu doesn't look like Brother Meng at all, how could she be the same person?"

At the end, she seemed to be talking to herself again, "However, Aunt Afu and Brother Meng are equally good-looking."

Ruan Fu had no choice but to smile, Wuyang didn't understand the whole story, but finally accepted it, the two girls and one child continued to laugh and make trouble in the garden.

Yu Wujing went to the palace early this morning to meet Concubine Qi. When she left the palace, she was ordered by Concubine Qi to meet the Eldest Princess. She heard that Ruan Fu had also come to the palace. She was in the garden at this time. The Eldest Princess was worried that Wu Yang would appear. The palace was too long, so he asked him to tell Princess Jin'an to bring Wuyang back to the palace when he came out.

When he stepped into the garden, what he saw was Ruan Fu hugging Wu Yang and the two of them chatting.

Ruan Fu at this moment is different from the decisive, intelligent, decisive, calm, self-restraining, and keen insightful woman he saw on the battlefield. After leaving the battlefield, she seems to have a soft and graceful look on her body. appearance.

At this moment, Yu Wujing didn't have time to think about what it was until many years later, when he felt the chill in the ice and snow, he realized that it was something called warmth that he had never felt in his life. No, or rather, there was one, but he ignored it.

He couldn't tell what kind of feeling he had in his heart, but he had already stepped forward, and the maids all saluted when they saw him, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu."

Princess Jin'an also stood up when she heard the voice, "Second Brother."

It's not as kind as when seeing Yu Wujue, Yu Wufan, Yu Wuhen and others.

Ruan Fu also bowed, "I have seen His Royal Highness the King of Chu."

On the other hand, Wuyang smiled and called Second Uncle.

Yu Wujing nodded lightly, her eyes stayed on Ruan Fu for a moment, she said lightly to Princess Jin'an, "Auntie said it's cold outside, so I want you to bring Wuyang back to the inner hall."

Princess Jin'an was stunned for a moment, and then realized, "Look at me, I've almost forgotten, thank you, Second Emperor Brother."

Yu Wujing nodded lightly, said nothing, turned around and left after humming.

Wu Yang and Ruan Fu headed towards the inner hall together, but after the two of them turned and left, Yu Wujing paused, looked back, frowned, turned and left again.
