The setting sun turned yellow, staining the entire imperial city.

Shen Rui played for a day, and finally noticed a little tired, especially thinking that there were still people in the palace who were worried, and she had no interest in playing, so she went home.

Gao Zhongping has been hiding in the shadows, he was dispatched by Yu Jinfan to protect Shen Rui's safety, firstly, his kung fu is good and trustworthy, and secondly, he is familiar with Shen Rui. As for the fact that Shen Rui is a woman, Gao Zhongping really spent a lot of time digesting it, and he can understand the ambiguity between Shen Rui and Shizi when he was in the war camp.

Escorting the person back to the palace safely, turning around, he went to the study. Sure enough, Yu Jinfan has come back and is immersed in state affairs.

"Has the princess returned to the palace?" Min Hyuk asked, seeing him nodding, he entered the house and reported the situation to Yu Jinfan, and then passed him into the house.

The newly renovated study is neat and bright, surrounded by books on three sides, and on a long table, stacks of processed and pending official documents.

"Shizi." Gao Zhongping stood below and said respectfully.

The pen stopped, Yu Jinfan put the brush aside and raised his eyes to look at him: "Something?" ”

"Yes." Gao Zhongping said, paused, and told Shen Rui about going into the Bird Tower to listen to the music, and sneaking into the backyard to meet Jin Zhi. It's a pity that he was afraid that Shen Rui would find out, so he was far away, and when he saw the two talking, he couldn't hear the specifics clearly.

"What's that man's whereabouts?" Yu Jinfan frowned.

Gao Zhongping shook his head: "This person's name is Jin Zhi, who came a month ago, and is famous in the imperial city for her songs, but no one has seen her true face so far." ”

The hand resting on the table tapped on the tabletop, making a slight sound of 'dong dong', and after a long time, the fingertips stopped, Yu Jinfan raised his eyes, and said coldly: "Send someone to investigate the details of this person." ”

Gao Zhongping said yes, hesitated for a moment, and hesitated: "That princess is over there."

"I'll take care of it." Yu Jinfan said indifferently, glanced at the folds on the table waiting for approval, and his already slightly frowning brows tightened.

When I returned to the house, I didn't see Yu Jinfan there, and when I thought about it, I knew that she was dealing with state affairs again, and Shen Rui, who was full of interest, suddenly felt bored, and asked Bi Ding and the others to pack up their things and sneak away to the courtyard.

"The princess." The palace people who saw her on the road saluted respectfully.

Shen Rui bowed her head carelessly, and she had already begun to complain about Yu Jinfan's busyness, she had been in the palace for nearly a month, and it had been less than three days since she saw her get together.

"The cold moon sinks into the cave and the room is quiet, and the shadow of the sycamore outside the pearl curtain.

The autumn frost wants to start the prophet, and the tailor scissors at the bottom of the lamp are cold. ”

Thinking of the resentful woman who was like an empty boudoir, Shen Rui sighed and recited.

Yu Jinfan thought of her wholeheartedly, dropped the fold, and rushed to this side, who knew that when he passed by the small courtyard, he heard someone sighing.

Min Hyuk followed behind Yu Jinfan, heard this grievance from a distance, and then saw the black lines on Shizi's face, he couldn't help laughing, and laughed out loud.

Shen Rui heard the movement, turned her head reflexively, and saw the person in her heart standing there: "Fan! She excitedly said, almost pounced, and took the emaciated man in her arms.

The palace people passing by in the distance happened to see this scene, and they were all stunned by the enthusiasm of the princess, and then looked at the strange posture of the two with inexplicable harmony

Finding that there was someone in the distance, the person who was hugged in his arms struggled unnaturally, and coughed lightly and reminded: "Nanmu, there are people." ”

Shen Rui knew that her own face was very thin-skinned, so she kissed her passionately on the face unpreparedly before letting go of her.

"Have fun?" Yu Jinfan asked, straightening his waist unnaturally, and his cheeks were pink because of her kiss.

Min Hyuk knew that his master was shy, so he couldn't help but laugh and sent away the palace people who were watching the excitement with his eyes.

"Happy! Or outside the palace interesting. Shen Rui said casually, and accidentally said what was in her heart. She blinked, looked at the stunned person in front of her, and her subordinates quietly held her hand, swaying from side to side in a small arc: "Without you, no matter how interesting it is, it's not interesting." ”

Yu Jinfan glanced at her and withdrew his hand.

Shen Rui looked down at the empty palm, rolled her eyes, and approached the person: "I'm angry." ”

"Nope."

"If you say no, you're really angry." Shen Rui touched her chin and looked like I know you too well.

Yu Jinfan glanced at her again, turned his little chin, turned around and walked back.

Seeing this, Min Hyuk raised his leg and was about to chase-

"She's having trouble with me, what are you making a fuss about." Shen Rui gave her a disgusted look, and opened her legs to chase Yu Jinfan, who had just walked a short distance.

Min Hyuk looked at the distant backs of the two of them, and silently retracted the leg that had taken him. It seems that she can rest early today.

The pace of the people behind accelerated, the people in front also accelerated, the people behind slowed down, and the people in front also slowed down, and the distance between the two people always remained two meters.

Yu Yunyan came to Yu Jinfan to discuss things, and from a distance, he saw the two of them going fast and slow, as if they were playing a game, which was very interesting. "Fifth brother, fifth sister-in-law!" Yu Yunyan shouted.

The two of them paused, and at the same time turned their heads to look at him.

Yu Yunyan beckoned, showed a mouthful of white teeth with a bright smile, and ran over quickly: "Fifth brother, fifth sister-in-law, are you playing a game?" ”

Play the game

Yu Jinfan's ears were red in embarrassment, and his face struggled to maintain a expressionless state.

"That's right, I'll play games with your fifth brother." Shen Rui smiled and gently bumped Yu Jinfan's shoulder with his shoulder: "Yes, Fan~"

"I'm going to play too!" Yu Yunyan said excitedly.

Yu Jinfan's face darkened, and Yu Yunyan's invisible left hand twisted Shen Rui's waist angrily.

Shen Rui was itching, her hand reached to her waist and held her hand of revenge, and smiled gently: "Seventh brother, this game can only be played by husband and wife, and when you marry a wife, the fifth sister-in-law will teach you again." ”

"Huh?" Yu Yunyan scratched her head in confusion, she can only play as a couple? What game is this? Thinking about it, he asked curiously, "Why?" ”

The hand in his hand moved again, Shen Rui was really helpless about this studious child, and then looked at Yu Jinfan's embarrassed appearance, pursed his lips and held back a smile, and directly changed the topic: "Seventh brother, do you have something to do with your fifth brother?" ”

"Ah, yes!" Only then did Yu Yunyan remember what was going on, his smile faded, and he glanced at Shen Rui hesitantly: "Fifth brother, I have something to talk to you about." ”

Seeing this, Shen Rui's brows furrowed slightly, and then stretched his waist-

"I went back to the house and rested." As soon as he opened his legs, the whole person was dragged back again.

"Go to the study and say." Yu Jinfan said lightly, and pulled Shen Rui to the study without refusing.

Coming back to her senses, Shen Rui looked at her expressionless delicate side face, the corners of her mouth gradually raised, a few steps to keep up with the footsteps, her hands around her arms, and walked with her affectionately.

"The fifth sister-in-law has only known her for a long time since the fifth brother, why did she trust her so much?" Shaking his head incomprehensibly, Yu Yunyan thought about the matter, no longer worried, and followed up with the study.

"Fifth brother, there is movement over there in the second brother." In the study, Yu Yunyan said straight to the point: "The person I installed in Gaode Mansion has news, he has recently frequently summoned several important ministers such as Na Lang and Zhang Kai, in addition, in the past few days, the soldiers under him have been abnormally safe, and I am afraid that it will be calm before the storm." ”

After being silent for a long time, Yu Jinfan asked, "What about Zhong Honghai?" ”

Hearing this, Yu Yunyan's face showed a little embarrassment: "The people who were sent to him are all missing." ”

Yu Jinfan's willow eyebrows tightened, and for a moment, she tugged at the corners of her mouth, as if smiling: "This old fox is really not to be underestimated." ”

"Fifth brother, I'm worried that Zhong Honghai's strength in his hands is not less than ours." Yu Yunyan said that he was worried, Zhong Honghai was the person they really wanted to guard against, Yu Chenghai, just a chess piece.

"Send someone near the Zhong Mansion, don't come close." Yu Jinfan explained, and after speaking, she fell into deep thought.

Shen Rui has been sitting next to them and listening to their conversation, Zhong Honghai She knows a thing or two, the prime minister of Southern Chu, the uncle of the country today, the veteran of Southern Chu, has a lot of achievements, according to legend, if it weren't for him, the king of Southern Chu today is rare.

"Yun Yan, what kind of person is this Zhong Honghai?" Seeing Yu Jinfan thinking, Shen Rui asked Yu Yunyan in a whisper.

Yu Yunyan thought for a while and said seriously: "An old fox with great ambitions and unfathomable depths. ”

"He wants to be king?" Shen Rui blurted out.

Yu Yunyan was frightened by her straightforwardness, and nervously looked outside the palace gate, making sure that there was no one, and then patted her chest: "Fifth sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense." If it reaches the father, he will surely be angry. ”

Shen Rui shrugged, but she knew in her heart that she was right.

"By the way, Brother Wang, there is another person." What comes to mind, Yu Yunyan added.

Yu Jinfan, who had been silent, raised his eyes.

"Zhong Honghai's daughter and Yu Chenghai are very close, and they have been in frequent contact recently."

"Zhong Ziyan?" Yu Jinfan said.

"Brother Wang remembers her, look at my brain, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, my father laughed and said that he wanted to marry her." Yu Yunyan patted his head and smiled.

In fact, Yu Jinfan had forgotten about this a long time ago, and the reason why he remembered Zhong Ziyan was simply because she was Zhong Honghai's daughter. However, it seems that some people are very concerned about this.

"Zhong Ziyan, the name is good, I think it looks good, right?" Shen Rui asked with a smile.

Yu Yunyan didn't want to nod his head: "Beautiful!" If this imperial city can be compared to the fifth sister-in-law, it is Zhong Ziyan. I remember that the reason why my father wanted to marry her to the fifth brother was precisely because the fifth brother praised her for her beauty, and you must know that the fifth brother rarely praised people. ”

Yu Jinfan choked on his own saliva.

"Oh?" Shen Rui raised her eyebrows and smiled brightly: "Fan, how did you praise her at that time?" ”

Yu Jinfan coughed lightly and said nervously: "I forgot." "But—

"I remember! An increase of one point is too long, and a decrease of one point is too short; Shi Zhu is too red, and pink is too white, and the fifth brother said so. Yu Yunyan shook his head and recited.

Yu Jinfan couldn't wait to kick him out of the door, and then looked at Shen Rui's unsmiling smile, Yu Jinfan's heart was like ashes.
