The north wind is bleak, and the three princes of the god of war once again led their troops to the battle, but this time they are not dealing with the invading enemy, but the moths of the country. [No pop-ups. 】ziyouge

On horseback, Mu Lingzhi wrapped Yu Ruyan tightly in his cloak and led her towards the city gate.

It was freezing cold, and according to his previous practices, he would definitely not let her brave the cold to send him away. But today, for some reason, he really wanted her to give him a ride

Under the cloak, Yu Ruyan wrapped her arms around his waist tightly, feeling the warmth on his body.

Along the way, the two didn't say anything, until they came to the city gate, Mu Lingzhi hugged her and got out of the car, gently brushed the snowflakes on the tip of her nose, and said with a smile: "Wait for me at home, eat on time every day, eat more meat, and when you come back, I want to see you grow two catties of meat." ”

Mu Lingzhi is not a person who likes to laugh, otherwise outsiders' impression of him would not be cold-blooded and cruel.

But he is not stingy with his smile in front of Yu Ruyan, as long as he meets her eyes, he will always give her the best-looking, most dazzling, and warmest smile in the world.

Such an eye-catching and touching smile will always belong to her, as it is now----

The deep eyes looked at her with a smile like a pool of quiet spring water, the handsome eyebrows were rippling with the most cheerful smile, the corners of the mouth were raised in front of the whole army, and he unceremoniously imprinted his kiss marks on her forehead, and said with a smile: "I will go to the south this time, if there is no accident, I will bring back a person who surprises you, can you expect who it will be?!" ”

Yu Ruyan looked at him stupidly, and her eyes suddenly turned red. She stepped forward to help him tie his dark cloak, and said with red eyes: "I don't look forward to anyone, I just look forward to His Highness coming back, and seeing His Highness early is the most beautiful and happy thing in the world for me." Therefore, Your Highness must remember to feed the horse's belly so that it can walk faster when it brings you back."

Yu Ruyan seems to be weak, but she is tougher than ordinary women, Mu Lingzhi has never seen her so sad, and the sorrow of his little daughter's home, somewhere in his heart has become extremely soft, and he is more and more reluctant to her.

He had to arrive at the next county town before it got dark, so Mu Lingzhi couldn't delay any longer, he finally hugged her into his arms and said solemnly: "Don't worry." I will feed not only the horses' bellies, but also my own, and when I come back, I will give you a husband in good condition. ”

Although the palms and ten fingers are calloused, they are the gentlest on her face. His finger stopped on her red eyes, and he commanded seriously: "You must do what you adapt to me, and you must not think nonsense and do things that hurt yourself, this is my last plea to you!" ”

With his cheek against his broad palm, Yu Ruyan leaned his cheek against his palm and rubbed it carefully, and said with red eyes: "Your Highness, don't worry about me, what I promised you will definitely be done." His Highness goes early and returns early. ”

Then let go of his hand and send him on his horse.

Mu Lingzhi turned over his horse and ran towards the city gate, but he was about to leave the city, but he couldn't help but turn around, and finally glanced at Yu Ruyan deeply----

In the whistling north wind, she held the carriage and watched him fixedly, her palm-sized face wrapped in the silver fox cloak, and a pair of sparkling eyes followed his figure eagerly, with a sad expression.

Seeing him turn around, she was slightly stunned, and the next second she was already trying to raise the corners of her mouth and smile at him

Even if he was reluctant in his heart, Mu Lingzhi had to turn around and ride away

Seeing that he was walking farther and farther, Yu Ruyan couldn't help but run up to the city tower, wanting to see him again.

Kan Kan climbed the city tower, and the oncoming people made her slightly stunned.

In the cold wind, Xiaodao stood quietly on the city tower in a bright yellow prince suit, and saw Yu Ruyan running up, a glimmer of unknown meaning flashed in his dark eyes, but he didn't say a word, turned around and passed by her, and went downstairs directly.

A puzzled look flashed on her face, and she thought that the knife might also be here to send Mu Lingzhi. It is estimated that Fang Cai saw that he was saying goodbye to him, so he didn't go down.

Thinking of this, thinking of his intimacy with Mu Lingzhi just now, and he could see it clearly from the city tower, he couldn't help but blush.

In this way, she was embarrassed to chase after the city tower to chase Mu Lingzhi's figure in front of him again, presumably after Fang Cai's delay, Mu Lingzhi also walked away.

Looking at the figure that disappeared on the horizon, Yu Ruyan's heart was empty, and Chunhua and Qiuyue persuaded her to go down while stuffing the stove into her hand, worried that the wind on the city tower was too strong, and it was easy for the wind cold to enter the body.

While going down the city tower, Yu Ruyan instructed the two maids beside her: "Now that His Royal Highness is not in the Eastern Capital, after we go back, let's close the gate of the other garden and live our own lives!" ”

The two maids respectfully responded.

After getting off the city tower, the knife left without a sound, Yu Ruyan sighed silently and got into the carriage of the palace to go back.

As soon as they returned to the garden, the spring flowers and the autumn moon were as Yan said, which made people close the door of the garden.

Obviously, it has only been separated for less than an hour, but Yu Ruyan has already felt that she has been separated from Mu Lingzhi for a long time. She began to count the hours with her fingers, hour by hour, counting how long Mu Lingzhi would have to come back

Seeing that she was so anxious, Chunhua and Qiuyue both thought of ways to let her pass the time, knowing that she was not good at being a female celebrity, so they took the initiative to teach her to be a female celebrity and make a new dress for His Royal Highness.

This suggestion is excellent, Yu Ruyan was immediately attracted, and immediately asked them to bring needles and threads and start learning to be a female celebrity.

Because Yu Ruyan grew up in Putuo Temple since she was a child, the temple was full of monks, and no one taught her what women like Nu Red had to learn. After she entered the palace, Concubine Lian did not send her to teach Mama Xi to teach her these things, so that she could fend for herself in the palace, which gave her a lot of time to peek at many books in her father's library.

Therefore, compared with ordinary women, Yu Ruyan is well-read, broad-minded, well-versed in righteousness, good at planning and open-minded like a man, but she is very unfamiliar with female celebrities and cooking.

Yu Ruyan was already exquisite, very intelligent, and under the teaching of Spring Flower and Autumn Moon, she quickly mastered the techniques and various skills of female red. Gradually became more and more comfortable.

Seeing her enthusiastic appearance, Chunhua couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Highness said that she will come back in five days at the shortest, and according to the wisdom of our princess, it seems that we can make a coat for Your Highness before Your Highness comes back." ”

Qiu Yue also smiled: "I guess, if His Royal Highness sees that the princess personally made clothes for him, he is afraid that he will fly to the sky happily, and he will not be willing to wear it, and he will definitely put it away like a baby." ”

Seeing them making fun of themselves, Yu Ruyan glanced at the two maids and said angrily: "Making clothes is meant to be worn." In order to reflect the value of clothes, if it is put away like a baby, can this still be called clothes? And according to my current craftsmanship, His Royal Highness is afraid that His Highness will not dare to wear out the clothes, not because he is reluctant, but because he is afraid of wearing them out and making people laugh! ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Chunhua and Qiuyue both pursed their lips and laughed, and Yu Ruyan herself felt funny and couldn't help laughing

The three of them sat in the warm pavilion and passed the time by roasting charcoal fire as female red, but they were happy and harmonious, and before they knew it, time passed very quickly

Yu Ruyan was ambitious to help Mu Lingzhi make a complete set of clothes from the inside out, and after having this idea in her mind. She is even more energetic when she becomes a female celebrity, thinking that she must make a dress for him before he comes back.

With this thought, Yu Ruyan was full of energy, and on the third day, she had already made more than half of a coat, and it seemed that it would take another day to complete it.

After breakfast, Yu Ruyan asked her subordinates to remove the table, and was about to pick up the needle and thread to continue the work, when Chunhua came in from outside, and said with a solemn face: "Princess, someone came to the palace just now, saying that His Majesty's paralysis was committed, and he fell off the dragon bed last night, and now he is half paralyzed, and the imperial doctor is trying his best to save him, although his life is saved, but he can't get out of bed." ”

Hearing this, Yu Ruyan's whole body was shocked, and the needles in her hands were pierced into her fingers, and she was stunned: "How can this be?" ”

"Princess, now the princes and nobles, as well as the ministers and wives have all entered the palace to visit, and the princess and the two side concubines in the palace of the eldest prince have been ordered to enter the palace to serve the sick, the princess. You see"

Yu Ruyan was stunned for a long time before sighing: "Although I have not officially married His Highness, I am also His Highness's wife in name." Now that His Royal Highness is not in Beijing, Huaying's position is not enough to enter the palace, but the Three Princes' Mansion cannot be left unattended. Although I can't do filial piety for His Highness, I still should greet him. ”

After that, immediately let them comb a simple hairstyle for themselves, change into an elegant and inconspicuous dress, and go to the palace.

was about to go out and get into the carriage, but saw a beautiful and luxurious carriage parked outside the garden, and before they could take a closer look, a person dressed as a palace man came and took a closer look. It turned out to be the little Fushou next to the prince.

He knelt directly on the snowy ground, greeted Yu Ruyan, and said softly: "Princess Qiyu, my prince is invited!" ”

Hearing Xiao Fushou call himself 'princess', Yu Ruyan suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart----

After arriving in Daliang, few people call themselves princesses, they all call her the third princess. How could Xiao Fushou call himself another way?

But now these are not the most important, what surprised her the most was that such a big thing happened in the palace, Xiaodao, as the prince, did not stay by King Liang's bedside in the palace to serve the sick, how could he appear at the gate of the other garden?

There were countless questions in her heart, Yu Ruyan walked to the carriage, Xiao Fushou lifted the curtain and asked her to go up, hesitated for a moment, Yu Ruyan did not get into the car, just stood in front of the carriage and said to the knife sitting in the car: "Prince, why are you here at this time?" ”

In the luxuriously decorated carriage, Xiao Dao sat with a gloomy face in a Ming Huang prince suit, hearing Yu Ruyan's words, the expression on his face was bitter, and he said with a wry smile: "My father is sick, so that I will be in prison overnight from today, and the entire beam will be handed over to my sister, I am so panicked, I want to come and see my sister."

After that, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to Yu Ruyan----

In the past, in Daqi, whenever Xiaodao was sick or encountered something, the first thing he wanted to find was Yu Ruyan, and only when he saw her could his heart calm down!

There was a big change in the palace last night, Xiaodao was officially ordered to supervise the country in danger, although he suddenly had more supreme power, but he was inevitably not flustered in his heart, so he involuntarily came to the other garden to find Yu Ruyan.

After being with him for so long, of course Yu Ruyan knew his habit. In the past, she would let him lie on his knees, touching his soft hair, and comforting him in a soft voice, so that his flustered heart could settle down.

But now it is different from the past, not only their identities are different, but their status has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Before, he was just a younger brother she adopted, but now she has become his sister-in-law, and he has become the prince of Daliang, how can she no longer have any worries about treating him as a younger brother who has not grown up, and hugging him into her arms to give him love and comfort?

Looking at the urgency in the eyes of the knife. As well as stretched out, Yu Ruyan sighed and didn't get into his carriage after all, and said softly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to be anxious, the more this time, the more you have to calm down, don't panic, as long as you calm down, there must be nothing that can be difficult for you." ”

The hope in her eyes darkened, and Xiao Dao saw that she had been deliberately keeping a distance from herself, and her heart ached, and she silently withdrew her outstretched hand

The changes in the palace certainly made him panic, but this was not the most important thing, but he also wanted to take this opportunity to see her openly----

What Yu Ruyan didn't know was that from the day Mu Lingzhi left the Eastern Capital, Xiao Dao would come to the outside of the garden every day, but when he saw the closed door, he didn't have the courage to knock on it and see Yu Ruyan

Seeing her finally come out of the courtyard today, he couldn't help but see her again, but he didn't expect her attitude towards him to be so rusty now.

Thinking of this, Xiao Dao's eyes were a little angry, knowing that Yu Ruyan would definitely not be willing to enter the palace in the same carriage with him, so he said in a deep voice: "Thank you sister for your teachings." I'll go back to the palace first! ”

The curtain was lowered, and the carriage turned to leave, disappearing from view in an instant.

Yu Ruyan was stunned for a moment, intuitionally, she felt that the knife was a little strange, the last time she sent Mu Lingzhi out of the city to meet him on the city tower, and today he suddenly appeared here, which made Yu Ruyan feel a little uneasy in her heart.

Because of the sudden illness of King Liang, the palace gate was full of cars, and the ministers who entered and exited the palace gate were all dignified. But the crown prince is still young after all, and he suddenly took over the entire Liang and officially supervised the country as the prince, but the ministers were secretly worried in their hearts, only afraid that there would be changes in the court, because the prince had never died for the crown prince.

As everyone expected, the sudden fall of King Liang, the eldest prince and Mu Xiang's faction were the happiest----

In this way, without the support of King Liang, the eldest prince and Mu Xiang can show their strength, and take advantage of the prince's unstable foundation to seize the Great Liang country!

In the dormitory of the Imperial Palace, Yu Mingzhu and Yu Wan have already arrived, and they are all serving carefully in front of the bed. And Mu Ziyue also came, and her master Yiqing Shitai was checking the pulse of King Liang at the bedside.

Seeing Yu Ruyan come in, Queen Xie, who had been sitting aside and secretly wiping her tears, had cold eyes, and her disgust was self-evident.

Although he didn't want to see her in his heart, he didn't say much in front of the people in the hall.

After thinking about it for a while, Yu Ruyan did not serve at the bedside like Yu Mingzhu and them, but knelt outside the screen with other women outside the palace to say goodbye.

After the peace, he did not stay in the temple for a long time, but withdrew with everyone.

Out of the Imperial Palace, Yu Ruyan did not stay in the palace for more than half a moment, and led the spring flowers and autumn moon to the palace gate. But I didn't expect it. The three of them were just about to leave the palace gate, but they were stopped by the Praetorian Guards.

Seeing that the three of them looked puzzled, the leader of the Praetorian Palace stepped forward and said respectfully: "The prince has an order, from now on, please ask the three princesses to stay in the palace, without the prince's order, you can't leave the palace!" ”

The words of the forbidden army exploded in Yu Ruyan's heart like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and her whole body was cold, and she didn't understand why Xiaodao wanted to ground herself in the palace for no reason?

In the imperial study, the knife asked the ministers to all go down, and stood quietly in front of the window waiting for Yu Ruyan to come.

After a long time, the sound of footsteps finally sounded at the door. The knife turned around, and sure enough, he saw Yu Ruyan walking in with a frosty face.

"Dare to ask His Royal Highness the Prince, why do you forbid me to leave the palace?"

As soon as they met, Yu Ruyan didn't say a word, and asked him directly.

On the way to the imperial study just now, Yu Ruyan had already guessed countless possibilities in her heart, but after thinking about it, she didn't understand why he wanted to do this? When King Liang fell ill and there was a panic in the palace, why did he keep her?

Xiaodao stood with his hands in his hands, looked at her fixedly for a while, and then slowly spoke: "In the days when the imperial brother was not in the Eastern Capital. I took my sister into the palace to live and take care of her. ”

Hearing this, Yu Ruyan unconsciously took a step back and refused: "No need, it's good for me to live in another garden, it's clear and quiet, but living in the palace is restrained!" ”

Expecting that she would refuse, Xiaodao's expression became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Sister, do you know what the imperial brother went to the south for this time?" ”

Looking at Xiao Dao's solemn expression, Yu Ruyan was shocked and wondered: "I heard from Your Highness that the bandits in the south were rampant and killed the former minister. Your Highness is going to the south to suppress bandits."

"It's not as simple as my sister thinks!" The little concubine interrupted her words bluntly, and said coldly: "The suppression of the bandits is fake, but the people that the imperial brother really wants to deal with are the eldest prince Mu Yunzhi and Mu Xiang." Because, I have received a secret report that the eldest brother colluded with Mu Xiang to embezzle more than 200,000 taels of disaster relief silver, and killed the minister. I think Brother Xin should also know the inside story, so he will resolutely ask for orders to go to the south to suppress bandits in person! ”

"This time, if the royal brother can successfully find the evidence, solve the murder case of the former Qincha, and find the evidence of the crime of the eldest prince and Mu Xiang, I am afraid that the eldest prince and Mu Xiang's mansion will have to become the soul of the sword."

"But what does all this have to do with me?" Yu Ruyan couldn't help but blurt out.

The knife hooked his lips and smiled coldly. Said: "Sister, the matter is related to their life and death, does my sister think that Mu Xiang and the eldest prince will stand by and sit on the ground and wait for death?" The rabbit is in a hurry and still knows that it has bitten, let alone the murderous and cunning prince. ”

A chill spread from the soles of her feet to her whole body for no reason, Yu Ruyan didn't know that Mu Lingzhi was in such a big crisis, she stayed on the spot, and she was speechless for a moment because she was scared and worried.

Xiaodao continued: "Sister should know that at such a critical moment of life and death, Mu Xiang and the eldest prince will definitely not be caught and wait for death, and they are bound to fight to the death with the imperial brother." As the saying goes, hit a snake and hit seven inches. Dealing with a person, especially against an invincible person like the imperial brother, can only have a slight chance of winning by holding on to his weakness. And everyone in the world knows that the biggest weakness of the royal brother is his sister. Therefore, if Mu Xiang and the eldest prince want to win this battle, they will definitely attack their sister to threaten the royal brother! ”

Yu Ruyan understood the meaning of Xiao Dao's words, and her heart was cold, and she also knew why Xiao Dao wanted to leave him in the palace.

Although she knew that the situation was critical, she still didn't want to stay in the palace, so she said: "I understand what you mean, but please rest assured, the prince is guarded by His Highness's secret guards in the garden, and I will definitely not take a step out of the gate of the palace during this time, before His Highness comes back, so even if they want to deal with me, I am afraid that they will not be able to do it." ”

Hearing her say this, Xiaodao's heart became inexplicably angry, and he couldn't help but say, "Does my sister believe in the secret guard of the imperial brother so much?" If those secret guards were really invincible, why did there still be Qin Xianglou? Sister, don't forget, the five secret guards who followed my sister that day have all died in vain! ”

Xiaodao's words made Yu Ruyan's face pale, and he had nothing to refute him.

"So. In order to allow the royal brother to deal with the flood without any ties, my sister still lived in the palace for a period of time, so as to truly avoid the worries of the imperial brother! ”

Knife's words made her mind a mess, and her expression hesitated----

It's an eventful time in the palace, she really doesn't want to stay here, and she also understands that Xiaodao is obsessed with her, so if she can avoid it, she will definitely avoid it.

But when he thought that if he became a drag on Mu Lingzhi because of himself, or if Mu Xiang threatened Mu Lingzhi's life with himself, he would encounter an accident. But it was what she was most afraid of seeing.

Moreover, looking at the expression of the knife, I am afraid that even if I don't agree, I won't be able to leave.

Her heart was cold, and she said coldly: "In that case, please also ask the prince to allow me to go back to the other garden to pack my luggage before entering the palace." ”

As soon as she agreed, a flash of excitement flashed in the knife's dark eyes. He said: "There is no need to be so troublesome, everything has been prepared for my sister in the East Palace." ”

"East Palace?"

Yu Ruyan's heart was shocked, and she frowned and said resolutely: "Prince, although I promised to live in the palace temporarily, I can't live in your East Palace, I still live in Chaoyang Palace." ”

"But Chaoyang Palace has no defense, and it is not safe for my sister to live in it."

The scorching eyes looked straight at the jade Ruyan on his head, and the knife insisted on saying: "Moreover, everything that my sister needs in the East Palace and my sister has been prepared."

"But that's your East Palace, the Prince's East Palace!" Looking at the knife in front of her, Yu Ruyan suddenly became a little angry, and said with an angry expression: "I am your imperial sister-in-law, how can I live in your harem?" ”

At this time, Yu Ruyan simply made it clear.

As soon as these words came out, he stunned the knife, and his expression was sluggish for a moment, but the next moment, his eyes flashed with anger, and his expression became more and more firm!

"Come on, send the princess to the East Palace, without the main palace to listen to the order, the princess is not allowed to leave the East Palace!"
