By the time Shen Ruyu returned to the banquet a little tired, most of the guests had already gone to the garden on the other side to enjoy the flowers in pairs of threes and twos at will, and in the hall of Nuoda, there were only Cui Wenjun and Wang Zizhi left, staring at each other face to face, each sitting in place with a strained face.

When he saw Shen Ruyu coming back, Cui Wenjun immediately stood up and greeted him, and seeing Shen Ruyu walking towards Cui Wenjun without hesitation, the prince couldn't help but snort coldly.

Obviously, he had been sitting here just waiting for Shen Ruyu to come out, but when she really came out, the prince stood up instead, showing a look of disgust, as if he had dirty eyes after looking at them more, and got up and walked out.

It's a childish way of attracting attention.

Shen Ruyu heard his sound, and thought a little helplessly, this guy must not be very old before he crossed over.

"What's wrong with him?" Shen Ruyu sat next to Cui Wenjun, which was considered to be a return to her original position, she raised her eyes to look at the back of the prince who left in a hurry, and turned her head to look at her friend beside her with some confusion, "Did you quarrel?" ”

"I don't know...... It's not that he treats us badly today. Cui Wenjun was now very afraid of hearing Wang Zizhi's name in Shen Ruyu's mouth, and even more afraid that she would show even the slightest concern for him, she asked nervously and dissatisfied, "Were you guys together just now?" I found out that you were gone, and he was gone, so I followed you to look for you, and you two disappeared all at once. ”

Shen Ruyu blinked and explained innocently, "I happened to meet when I went to change clothes, and we chatted for a while on the road...... Wen Jun, you also want to change clothes? ”

She smiled, "I knew you were going too, so I would have waited for you." You didn't react at all when I called you, and I thought you didn't want to go. ”

Cui Wenjun suddenly "coughed" with a weak heart, and argued with a hard mouth: "I don't know how...... I didn't want to go when you said that, but you wanted to go as soon as you left. ”

Shen Ruyu glanced at her with a smile, but she didn't seem to have the intention of delving. "It's just your weird fault."

It's really strange, obviously Cui Wenjun's reason and position for asking are more sufficient, but after Shen Ruyu stopped replying to this question, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The soft-looking girl didn't seem to notice the ups and downs of her friend's mood, she turned her head, stretched out her hand to the table in front of her, and gently picked up a piece of peony-shaped bean paste flower cake. And seeing her slightly lowered her eyebrows, her white fingers unhurriedly approaching the pink pastry to her tender lips, Cui Wenjun on the side couldn't help but lean over, lowered her voice and asked, "Then, what about later?" ”

"Later?" Shen Ruyu stopped her hand and looked at her as if puzzled.

"Later......" Cui Wenjun looked at her worriedly, "You met Your Majesty, right?" ”

Just against the posture of the Praetorian Guards just now, the momentum of preparing a carpet search, as long as Ruyu is still in that courtyard, it can be found by digging three feet into the ground.

"Ah," Shen Ruyu seemed to realize that she was asking this, showing an expression of sudden realization, and then took a bite of the bean paste flower cake unhurriedly, chewed it slowly and swallowed it, and then ordered, "Met it." ”

Cui Wenjun's face suddenly appeared, "Ah, it's disgusting, I want to ask what happened, but if I ask too much, it will seem very gossipy, and Ruyu will find it very annoying, but I really want to know, ahhh

Shen Ruyu couldn't help laughing, and then sighed slightly, saving Cui Wenjun from such suffering. "I've handed over my mother's recital to His Majesty."

Cui Wenjun was suddenly shocked and asked, "...... What, what? ”

Shen Ruyu slowly took another bite of the bean paste flower cake, "The impeachment ...... that my mother originally wanted me to hand over in public" said that she smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "The wording is not polite." ”

Cui Wenjun was slightly stunned, she had also been in the Cui family for so many years, she had been exposed to it, and she had become an internal guard again, hearing Shen Ruyu say this, she quickly understood Shen Nanfeng's plan, and suddenly couldn't help frowning, she couldn't help frowning, it was not that she couldn't understand her behavior, but this was completely relying on the emperor's good impression of Ruyu to force him to make concessions, so that the Shen family gained a lot of prestige, but put the male emperor in an extremely passive position, it was like a slap in the face of the world's supreme, and he had to endure it.

But she thought about it again, Shen Ruyu did not do what her mother wanted, that is, she was not extremely disgusted and disgusted by the persecution of the male emperor as in history, but completely stood on the position of the Shen family.

Could it be ...... In fact, Ruyu, she is not at all interested in the male emperor?

Cui Wenjun thought about it, and suddenly her eyes widened, and she looked at Shen Ruyu's face, as if she had written "I like Li Cong" with a special pen on her face, which only sincere people can see.

Speaking of which, although Li Cong is already an old man according to the views of this era, he is just entering his youth after a thousand years, and although his appearance does not conform to the gentlemen's demeanor that has always been popular now, gentle and introverted like jade, but in the aesthetics of a thousand years later, this kind of aggressive appearance with flamboyant and handsome eyebrows, as well as his arrogant personality, can simply be regarded as an otaku male god-

Moreover, he is also the noblest and most powerful being of this era.

- Ruyu likes him, well, it seems, there are quite enough reasons, eh?

But she immediately reversed her speculation.

No, no, no, how could Ruyu be so vulgar! She's not the kind of person who only looks and looks at her family background! She is indifferent to fame and fortune, noble character, no matter the peddler or pawn, as long as she can talk, she will all be equal and sincere, if Ruyu will like someone, it must not be because of the other party's appearance and family background, but because of the other party's talent and inside!

That's right!

Ruyu must be just soft-hearted, after all, the male emperor likes her so much, even if she is very troubled by this, she will not bear to hurt him like this.

That's right, that's it!

Thinking like this, Cui Wenjun's eyes when he looked at Shen Ruyu suddenly softened by three points, and his attention shifted instantly, "...... You haven't mentioned this to me before! ”

She said a little aggrieved.

Shen Ruyu was slightly stunned, and replied with some amusement, "Because I didn't plan to take it out in person, and I didn't plan to let others know." ”

Cui Wenjun looked at her unhappily, "Am I someone else?" ”

Hearing her words, Shen Ruyu looked at her with some surprise and laughed curiously, "Wen Jun, why have you become so coquettish recently?" ”

Cui Wenjun was quickly defeated.

And with the passing of the flower appreciation banquet, the peony poem of the prince was quickly popular in the capital, but the crazy Ji Cui Wenjun was quite disdainful of it, but the two of them, a man and a woman, Cui Wenjun, as a woman, was always bad at getting along with a teenager in public, and she seemed narrow-minded for no reason, and surrendered her identity, but she had been secretly vigilant in her heart, and even used the eyeliner of the internal guard, and finally half relieved, half nervously determined that the reason why Wang Zizhi hated her did not seem to be because he knew that she also came through time, It's just that as a traverser who likes Shen Ruyu, he is resistant to her, the official match of "Yuwen's friend".

After knowing this, Cui Wenjun became happy, and looked at Wang Zizhi more and more pleasing to the eye - what, it turned out to be jealousy.

Then the more Wang Zizhi hated her, the more he showed that he could not do anything about her.

But after this incident, Cui Wenjun began to mobilize all the secret guards under his command, and paid 120,000 attention in the capital, secretly investigating whether there were any suspicious characters.

"Landlord, I don't know why the internal guard has been active recently, did you find something?"

On the third floor of Shanshui Building, a well-known pen and ink xuan in the capital, Shen Ruyu was lying on the soft couch by the window, without the upright demeanor of a family, leaning on the soft pillow as if she had no bones, with a satisfied face.

And in the direction of the soft couch, a man in Tsing Yi sat behind the piano, indifferent to Shen Ruyu's movements, he was frowning, talking with a little worry.

The man in Tsing Yi has fair skin, a pair of slightly raised Danfeng eyes, and when his face is expressionless, he looks very indifferent, he is not very outstanding, he can only be said to have good facial features, but the cold temperament of the whole body makes his whole person look pure and unattainable.

…… Shen Ruyu felt that the so-called cold temperament was more in line with the ascetic temperament.

Because I was born in a green building, I have seen too much disgusting * entanglement, so I am very disgusted with physical contact with people, and therefore, even in the summer, I try my best to wrap myself tightly.

"Ah, nothing." Shen Ruyu could probably guess that the reason why those internal guards suddenly moved more nervously than before was most likely due to the order given by their leader - Cui Wenjun had obviously comprehended the "Law of the Dark Forest" by himself and began to use his own forces to try to start an investigation.

But compared to Shen Ruyu, who has been vigilant since she wore into this world, and once she can move freely, she will observe quietly, it is too late for her to move.

Late to almost all the "secret forces" she thinks she thinks are no longer hidden in Shen Ruyu's eyes.

"Tell them, the internal guards are not aimed at us, don't be too nervous, don't try to provoke, stop every qiē action, hide yourself carefully, don't do anything, try to avoid the activities of the internal guards for a while, and ensure your own safety."

She hugged a soft pillow, lazily rolled on the soft couch, and said in a somewhat vague tone.

"And ......" I don't know what came to mind, Shen Ruyu's tone became a little helpless, "Ah Jin, I said you called me Ah Yu, Ruyu can do it......"

The landlord or something.,It always reminds her of a place called a post bar before crossing over......

As well as the supporting use of Lanzhou baked cakes or something.

But the young man named Song Jin on the other side replied with a blank look, "Because you are the shopkeeper of Shanshui Building, but you don't want me to call you the shopkeeper." ”

Shen Ruyu let out a long sigh, "Alas, I think the title of the shopkeeper is very difficult to hear." ”

"So, that's called the landlord."

"Can't you just call me by name?" Shen Ruyu continued to sigh.

"Respect and humility should not be chaotic." Song Jin replied stubbornly.

Shen Ruyu completely closed his eyes with no way to do it, "It's really a defeat for you." ”

Then, the sound of the piano gradually rose, and the man's cold voice sang in a low voice, and in the singing, it slowly revealed boundless tenderness.

This man was accidentally saved by Shen Ruyu on the street a few years ago-

The orphan who was abducted into the Qinglou was adopted by the kind piano master, but after the death of the piano master, he was forced to pick up customers - although his appearance is mediocre now, but at that time, his ungrown facial features have a unique youthful demeanor, plus he always looks "clear and tall", which is quite attractive - and the thin young man who finally escaped ran into Shen Ruyu who was shopping at the time.

At that time, the young man's desperate wolf bèi and embarrassed appearance, as well as the strong unyielding appearance in his eyes, to this day, Shen Ruyu still remembers it vividly.

Shen Ruyu was drilling the tip of the bull's horns at that time, the memories of her previous life and the experience of this life were constantly conflicting, so that no matter what she saw, she could remember the things before the crossing, her parents and friends before the crossing, and then she couldn't sleep all night long, she tried to figure out what the crossing was all about, and even felt that she was dressed as the daughter of the Shen family, and there should be a scientific theory.

But she is not a physics major, and mathematics is even more blind, relying on a few bits and pieces, such as black holes, wormholes, beyond the speed of light, the Big Bang, the butterfly effect, and grandmother's paradox, and delusions to piece together all the truths and causes, and as a result, she almost didn't toss herself into a nervous disorder.

No one can understand and relieve her confusion, but even if she is tormented by the unanswered questions in her mind every day, Shen Ruyu is still a quiet and gentle daughter of the Shen family on the surface, never making mistakes in her words and deeds, noble birth, young and intelligent, and full of saintliness.

Every day she was summoned to the palace by the queen to accompany her, she hung her wrist on the rice paper and carried the pen, her vision was full of white snow, as if a piece of nothingness, and when she came back to her senses, the drawing paper was already full of the strokes she unconsciously fell on the brushstrokes, she could see the madness hidden between each stroke and the stagnation and hardship that could not be relieved, but only she understood.

When she smiled at others, no one could see how tangled she was.

Now that I think about it, I may have had a cross-over depression similar to postpartum depression.

So at the moment when he was knocked down by that child, Shen Ruyu, who was thinking about philosophy, instantly substituted himself.

At that time, she often wondered how she got the name she has today, she may indeed be quite talented, but if she hadn't been born in the Shen family, she would have been able to afford to be enlightened by a famous family, and everyone would have helped her to promote it with face, she would not have been able to reach today's level anyway.

There are also musical instruments, riding archery, this kind of family used to judge a person's standard, if it weren't for the fact that she was born in the Shen family and is the eldest daughter, she can be noble, leisurely and rich, and even a little boring shopping on the street, after being bumped into, can she protect the other party lightly?

In the final analysis, it was just because she was lucky that she crossed over and became the daughter of the Shen family.

What would have happened if she had been in the same situation as the teenager in front of her - her parents died, and together with the poor pianist, she had to get up early and return late every day, and even played until she came home every day, her hands were tired and couldn't move, so that she could barely make ends meet, and then she lost her last pillar and dependence, and was accused in the Qinglou by the vicious villains, coerced and enticed, and even beat him to give up his dignity and pride as a human being?

Does she have the courage to resist? Even if she mustered up the courage to resist the first time, did she still have the courage to continue to run away again and again after being caught back and tortured even more?

This young man never seemed to be intimidated by the vicious lynchings in the Qinglou, so Shen Ruyu protected him in his arms when the villains in the Qinglou chased him.

If she runs away again and again, but is caught again and again, no matter how much she resists at first, she will eventually give in.

What kind of world is there outside the green building? The teenager didn't really understand. Maybe it's more desperate, harder to survive and more incapable of living than the place he escaped, but even then, he wants to fight to the end.

Maybe he had encountered many times when he was dragged on the street and then handed back to Qinglou, so when he was held in her arms, he was still struggling desperately, and even bit her wrist viciously, until she said to them, "I want to redeem this child." He was stunned.

If he just watched him being caught, maybe he would be completely disappointed outside, if he fell into the dust and fell into the quagmire, it always felt like ...... The same as she pushed down.

- It was as if she were the one who ran away in panic, pain, fear and despair.

If I hadn't been the daughter of the Shen family, would someone have reached out to save me when I ran away like this child? Or is it none of your business, standing by and watching yourself finally be caught up, little by little in complete despair?

Of course, Zhengda Guangming's statement is, of course, to rescue the abducted children...... No, it starts with me.

So Shen Nanfeng didn't say anything to help her get Song Jin back, just looked at her and said something that Shen Ruyu had seen countless times in the traversal text, "Being kind is a good thing, but Ruyu, there are so many miserable people in this world, how many can you save?" ”

Shen Ruyu was very irritable and thought that I was most annoyed by this kind of person who felt that she couldn't save a few and didn't save a few people, but she finally replied calmly and uprightly, "But I saw it, so I can't ignore it." ”

For people like them, sometimes it's just a gesture, but it can change a person's fate.

But people only know that because Li Cong likes Shen Ruyu, she is not allowed to have a man by her side, but people rarely remember that when the queen is alive and has the power alone, Shen Ruyu can't leave any man by her side, Song Jin can't stay by Shen Ruyu's side, so the Shen family is silent, and the only people who know Song Jin are Shen Ruyu and Shen Nanfeng, Song Jin's piano skills are very good, Shen Nanfeng sent him to a music shop under the Shen family, this is a really talented person who also loves to play the piano, It's a pity that this era can't accommodate so-called artists.

Shen Ruyu likes his piano sound very much, so he often runs to see him, Song Jin grows up very fast, it seems that because of that experience, he works very hard to prove that he is useful, and when he can almost become the shopkeeper alone, Shen Ruyu bought the original green building and handed it to him on his birthday.

Song Jin was reluctant to accept it, Shen Ruyu thought about it, and said, "Then you can help me find out all the suspicious news in this capital." ”

"I want this capital for me, there is no secret."
