The dust finally settled on what had been haunting her, and although it was the worst thing Ruyi could have expected, she really calmed down.

Because of the injustice of the Son of Heaven and the oppression of Liuli, the injustice and anxiety hidden in the heart have also disappeared.

She is not the biological daughter of the Son of Heaven, so the Son of Heaven cannot love her from the bottom of his heart; She possessed a lot of things that should have been the exclusive possession of Liuli, so Liuli was hostile to her, which is also human nature - at least there is a reason, so Ruyi can look at it calmly.

Once she gets rid of blood kinship, the fact that the Son of Heaven raised her has become a pure kindness to Ruyi.

It's not a good feeling to owe someone a favor, but Ruyi thinks that she will pay it off one day.

On the contrary, he can be calm.

Ruyi is still studying in Guozixue.

After such a change, what is the exclusion and bullying of children in the kindergarten hall?

As for the fact that his identity may be detected by his classmates, Ruyi really doesn't care. Therefore, she is much more frank and frank in the museum, although she will not deliberately make friends with anyone, but when others are in trouble, she often helps without any worries.

At this time, her advantages of good learning became commendable. She is always easier to get close to and more patient than doctors, and her explanations are often easier to remember and understand, so those who are interested in learning but have real talent in the academy love to ask her for advice.

Therefore, although her identity was confirmed quickly, and rumors began to spread faintly in the school, her interpersonal relationship never collapsed to the point where Liuli and Zhang Ben were back then.

And she herself is calm, as if she is not aware of it, how to continue in the daily life - perhaps because she is originally a kaolin flower in the kindergarten - gradually the teenagers themselves do not take it very seriously.

As for what Xu Yi was worried about, after he left, Ruyi had no relatives and friends in the kindergarten, and it didn't happen.

It is true that no one is as inseparable from Ruyi as Xu Yi, but Ruyi always has friends by her side, and they are all very good at handling things. Whenever she wants to study quietly, she will not come to disturb her, but when her classmates have something to do and there is no one around her, someone will always take the initiative to invite her. Even if she was in a daze for a while, inadvertently revealing some lonely movements, and even when she didn't even notice it, someone would take the initiative to talk to her.

Sometimes Ruyi feels as if she is being taken care of.

At first, she thought it was Liu Jun - this young man is sociable and has the best popularity in the kindergarten. The wind direction in the museum is often guided by him intentionally or unintentionally. And he did help Ruyi out of the siege repeatedly.

But then she was a little suspicious, because the two or three people who took special care of her seemed to be the ones who were more estranged from Liu Jun.

It wasn't until the first month of the second year that Ruyi suddenly wanted to go to see Erlang's palace, but accidentally met his classmates in his mansion, and finally figured out what was going on.

She wasn't hit hard, she just wanted to...... This is really in line with Erlang's consistent style of doing things.

I just don't know if these two people were □□ by Erlang from the beginning, or bought them later.

…… Although he is just a child, as a prince and a member of Gyeonggi, he really doesn't know what to say about him in a place where young children study in a kindergarten hall.

- Childish or not.

Looking at her eyes, Erlang knew what she was thinking, of course he wouldn't be annoyed and angry because he was caught, he only calmly added white sugar to the white porridge - the only age-appropriate problem in his body was undoubtedly his love for sweetness, and he had to mix white water with honey. This makes the milk aroma on his body sweeter than that of others - he is indeed still at the age of milky smell.

Ruyi guessed that if she didn't ask, he would definitely be cheeky and act as if nothing had happened, and he wouldn't confess a word.

But Ruyi doesn't think there's anything to ask - should she blame Erlang for being nosy?

But she didn't ask at all, and she seemed to be very sad - you see that her relationship was so bad that she needed her brother to arrange friends for him, and she even buried her head in the sand and pretended not to find out—so she should have asked.

Ruyi thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a question that she was quite curious about, "Do they listen to you?" ”

Jiro nodded calmly, "Hmm." ”

Wishful:......

"How the hell did you do that?!" Ruyi is finally a little unrighteous - if these bear children were really so easy to control, Liuli and Zhang Ben would not have fallen into such a situation at the beginning.

Erlang said that the matter was not worth mentioning, "This king and their fathers are colleagues, isn't it natural for them to be friendly with each other?" If I'm older, maybe they'll call me uncle. ”

"Impossible." Ruyi retorted categorically, "They will only call you lord or prince." ”

In this way, Erlang is only so popular because of his power and convenience, and he is only a difference between fifty steps and a hundred steps with her.

Erlang was choked and said arrogantly, "There's nothing wrong with that." ”

The two siblings were speechless for a while, and after a while, Ruyi laughed first. Erlang saw that she really didn't have any trouble, so he also smiled, and then he was willing to defend obediently, "Actually, I didn't tell them anything, I only vaguely mentioned that I was worried about Sister A's situation...... Is Sister angry? ”

When he admitted this, Ruyi couldn't help but feel a little lonely. But he still replied honestly, "They take good care of me, what do I have to be angry about?" ”

On the contrary, Erlang became dissatisfied, raised his eyebrows and asked, "How much care?" ”

Ruyi couldn't bear it anymore, and raised his hand to give him a powerful brain crash. Jiro covered his forehead, almost bursting into tears by her.

Ruyi looked at his sullen appearance, and couldn't help laughing, "You are a ...... person"

Erlang covered his head and must finish his words, "Sister must know that these people will get close to you because they ask for something, don't make friends with them without permission." ”

Ruyi thought to herself that this bad debt was not arranged by you! What are you in a hurry to dismantle yourself!

"Shall I break them off immediately?"

Erlang struggled for a moment, and finally didn't look at it unconvinced, and said, "That's not enough." Their character is generally reliable......"

After all, it was Erlang's partner chosen for her, and he must have also investigated. It's just that he can see through others, but for some reason he is always inaccurate in Ruyi, and it is easy to think of her as extremely fragile and easy to deceive. Therefore, he always behaves irritatingly in front of her. At this moment, he realized his gaffe, and he must have been very annoyed.

Ruyi wasn't angry with him, but he couldn't help but want him to reflect more. He smiled and watched him add sugar to the porridge with a spoonful of anger, and let him be distressed for a while before explaining, "They are also very modest, and there is no flattery or cowardice, but the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water." ”

Only then did Erlang look up at her again, recovering his usual upright posture.

Ruyi smiled again, "What's more, even if they are close to me because they ask for something, there is nothing to be angry about." She thought for a moment before she said slowly, "This is also a common situation in the world. Aren't those world friends who are in the same breath just because they are friends with each other? It's probably not because of a variety of opportunities and interests. When one is prosperous and the other is lost, it is two people who are very incompatible with each other, and they will soon be intimate and help each other. Besides, without these real opportunities, how many opportunities are there for anyone to make friends? How can you know if a person and you are in each other's hearts? If a person is so high that he can't even tolerate and look down on such things, then how many people in the world can he befriend? She said, "So I really have nothing to be angry about." It's like being stained with your light and taken care of by your friends. ”

Jiro couldn't help but look at her carefully for a while.

Ruyi was not as cheeky as him, and said angrily, "Look at it!" Could it be that I'm such a pedantic person in your heart? ”

Jiro bent his eyes and chuckled, "Really." ”

"Hey!"

"But I think that although you have a pedantic and noble side, you are also very accommodating. So never worry about being found out by you. ”

After settling the matter, he was finally able to go back and enjoy his bowl of white porridge with sugar and rice. It's a pity that after only one bite, he was so drunk that he drank a full cup of water.

Ruyi couldn't help but laugh.

But Ruyi thought about Erlang's consistent temper, and felt that even if she was really angry, Erlang would probably go his own way, and he had no scruples at all. Her younger brother is too smart, so he is quite conceited, and he has never known what introspection is. In the book, it is often described that the monarch is "wise enough to refuse advice, and words are enough to be right and wrong", Ruyi sometimes feels that Erlang may also have this problem.

Perhaps the older one gets, the easier it is for one to turn to the Buddha for sustenance. After establishing himself as the crown prince, the enterprising spirit of the Son of Heaven also suddenly weakened, and he turned to the Buddha. In the past two years, the monk Xuan Tianzhu often entered the palace to explain Buddhism for him, and ordered people to sort out and translate many Buddhist classics from the West.

Families often either follow the Tao or the Buddha. There are more people who believe in Buddhism. Now even the Son of Heaven has a preference, and the trend is majestic. Buddhist temples have sprung up.

Ruyi every time she sees the quiet beauty and extravagance of the temple, and sees the poor people seeking the Buddha's way, she is worried about her heart - because of the family style, she has read many Buddhist scriptures since she was a child, and she has also heard the great monk say a lot of Buddhism. Buddhism talks about the cycle of cause and effect, that the suffering in this life is the result of the sins of the previous life, and that the suffering in this life is the result of good karma in the next life...... Ruyi always thinks, how desperate do people have to be to believe this kind of past and present life statement?

Perhaps she is a layman, and she only believes in this life and does not wait for the next life, and she is resolutely unwilling to repay any debts for the so-called "past life". If anyone dared to use such words to cross her, she would have to kick him in the face.

If it weren't for the hardship and helplessness, no matter how hard we tried, we wouldn't be able to improve our situation, so where would people believe in the past and present lives?

The belief Ruyi on the side was not clear, but she vaguely felt that the prosperity of Buddhism and the flood of reincarnation were probably parasitic on the despair of all sentient beings in this world.

Sentient beings are suffering and ignorant, so they have to go against the grain and accept it, but Ruyi just doesn't quite understand that the Son of Heaven has any despair that cannot be relieved in this life, and he also needs to seek the Dharma.
