Du Yunjin did not regain her past closeness because of Ruyu's courtesy, for Du Yunjin, if Ruyu was not the old man who followed Xiao Yu, she was afraid that she would not even let Ruyu enter and exit the door.

Although she did not investigate the disaster five years ago, she occasionally reminisced about the days when she was behind closed doors. Guo Ruyu, as her personal palace maid, did not serve closely, which is one of the doubts, and Guo Ruyu was the first to take Concubine Qing and others to the house where the accident occurred, and claimed to have been injured by her. All kinds of signs show that Guo Ruyu is very suspicious.

But why did Ruyu frame her? Du Yunjin couldn't figure it out when he thought about it. She is Xiao Yu's concubine, and she is the help of Xiao Yu's ascension to the throne, Ruyu is the old man next to Xiao Yu, and it stands to reason that she will not have two hearts, but she actually participated in the incident five years ago, what does this mean? Either she is the person of Xiao Yuli, the former king of Qing, or she has another thought. If she were Xiao Yuli's person, Du Yunjin would never allow her to stay in the East Palace and stay by Xiao Yu's side! But Du Yunjin observed carefully, but determined that she was not Xiao Yuli's person, so it seemed that she had a different mind.

What kind of thoughts did she have in mind that was worth her bothering to frame herself?

Du Yunjin shook his head gently, not thinking of the reason.

"Mother?" Ruyu saw that her face was different, and she came to her with a flattering smile, and asked softly, "Niangniang is uncomfortable?" ”

In Du Yunjin's view, her concerned inquiry was more like an inquiry, which made Du Yunjin more vigilant in his heart, so he waved his hand and said, "Get ready to get up." ”

"Yes." I touched my nose for no reason, but I didn't even have a place to cry. Ruyu could only endure her grievances by herself, and still waited for Du Yunjin to get up with a smile on her face.

With his wet hair scattered behind him, Du Yunjin sat on the low couch by the window with his knees crossed, his head leaning on the window lattice casually, and looking up at the bright moon in the sky wordlessly. Ruyu half-bent over and carefully wiped the drops of water from her hair.

"Niangniang, there are some things that the slave doesn't know whether to say or not?"

As if he hadn't heard her speak, Du Yunjin was stuck in his own contemplation and didn't respond. Ruyu poked her head out, looked at Du Yunjin's expression, hesitated again and again, but said slowly: "Now that His Royal Highness has pacified the rebellion of King Qing, there is no more chaos in the court. His Majesty is now seriously ill and recuperating in the Longqian Palace, and has not heard of state affairs for a long time, His Royal Highness is naturally a heavy and precious person. Not to mention that the young palace maids up and down the palace are looking forward to the rain and dew of His Royal Highness, and there are also Liang Liangdi who go to the east study every now and then to meet His Royal Highness in the name of visiting. ”

At first, these words sounded reasonable, and every sentence was for her Du Yunjin's sake. If it were others, I am afraid that they would all applaud Ruyu's words. But she is not an outsider, she is Du Yunjin, and she naturally has to think about Ruyu's words.

"Such a disabled woman in this palace, it is already considered His Highness's mercy to have a place to live in the palace, where is she qualified to compete with Liang Liangdi?" Du Yunjin let out a long sigh, turned his head slightly, and secretly observed Ruyu's expression with the corner of his eye.

When Ruyu heard Du Yunjin mention that incident, the disdain on her face flashed, she thought she had hidden it very well, but she didn't know that it had fallen into Du Yunjin's eyes.

"Niangniang is the crown princess appointed by His Majesty, as long as His Majesty has not issued an edict, as long as His Royal Highness has not asked for the abolition of the concubine, Niangniang is still the most noble woman in this East Palace. His Royal Highness can ascend to a high position one day, and only Niangniang is respected in the harem. ”

"Really?" Du Yunjin flashed a sneer, and Ruyu's hurried statement made her more sure that Ruyu was actually hiding other thoughts. She is not Xiao Yuli's person, nor Liang Naixin's person, let alone Xiao Chen's person, so who will she be? In this deep palace, who else would hate her to the point of gritting her teeth so much?

Just when Ruyu wanted to show her loyalty again, she was suddenly pulled away from Du Yunjin's back mercilessly.

Ruyu was smashed to the ground, and just raised her head and was about to angrily reprimand where the barbarian came from, but she saw that familiar figure. The figure she would never be able to climb was like a star in the night sky to her, and she could only look up from afar, unable to touch it.

"Your Highness......"

"Get out!" Xiao Yu, who was full of alcohol, turned her head leisurely and reprimanded Ruyu impatiently: "You, don't get out of here!" With that, he kicked her right in the heart, making her face pale in pain.

"Ayu?" Obviously, his violence not only frightened Ruyu, but also frightened Du Yunjin on the side. She had never seen such a Xiao Yu, no matter how difficult it was, he was as upright as the green bamboo forest outside the study, and at the same time maintained the demeanor and elegance of a prince of a country.

"Jin'er?" Xiao Yu raised her eyes to look at Du Yunjin, and the moment she met her gaze, all the violence faded, leaving only the bright joy. He stepped forward and hugged Du Yunjin tightly, and called affectionately in her ear: "Jin'er, this hall can find you." ”

"Huh?" Du Yunjin, who was tightly imprisoned by him, couldn't move, and looked at him helplessly: "Ah Yu, I've always been here." You let go of your hands first. ”

The moment he hugged her, she subconsciously tensed. Such an overly intimate contact always reminded her of the night of confusion five years ago, reminding her of an unclean woman who betrayed her husband, and made her afraid that she would be forced to stay away from Xiao Yu's side from now on.

"The main hall will not let go!" At this moment, Xiao Yu pursed her lips, leaned on her shoulder like a child, and said coquettishly: "If the main hall is released, Jin'er will never be found again." ”

Du Yunjin wrenched his hand, and the more she wrenched, the tighter he hugged him, making it almost difficult for her to breathe. "Ah Yu, let it go, there are still people here."

"Who?" Xiao Yu followed her words, turned her head to look inside the room, and happened to see Ruyu kneeling on the ground. "If you don't go down, do you want this hall to kick you again?" As he spoke, he was really ready to kick him again.

"Your Highness......" Ruyu raised her head in disbelief and looked at him with teary eyes: "Your Highness......"

Hehe, I see.

Xiao Yu didn't look at Ruyu much, but Du Yunjin could see it clearly, it turned out that her ulterior motive turned out to be Xiao Yu. That's right, with Ruyu's age and qualifications, she could have asked to be released from the palace a long time ago, but she didn't, and she was willing to bury her years in the East Palace. What she thinks about is nothing more than a certain position next to Xiao Yu, it is very difficult to make a side concubine with her background, but it is more than enough to make a room with Qiao's qualifications. Is that why she was involved in that incident five years ago? As long as she destroys Du Yunjin, she will have a chance to get a certain position, it must be the black hand behind it, or it is Concubine Qing and King Qing who promised her that she participated in that conspiracy.
