Chapter 126: Like a light on the back
Shang Ruyi looked up and saw an elderly chamberlain. Although it was him who spoke, he was obviously asking questions on behalf of the emperor, so he hurriedly responded: "My wife Shang Ruyi."
"Where is Yu Wenye?"
As expected.
I don’t know why, even though there were so many people present, they asked Yu Wenye first as soon as they arrived. It seemed as if the emperor was paying special attention to him. Shang Ruyi lowered his head and said softly: "Husband, he still has some things to deal with. He will be there soon."
The chamberlain asked again: "His Majesty has arrived, do you want everyone to wait for him alone?"
"..."
At this time, Shang Ruyi felt angry in his heart. , and frustrated.
If the people in front of her were not the emperor and the chamberlain, she really wanted to tell them clearly and word by word that the one who left Yu Wenye behind was the daughter of His Majesty the Emperor, the golden Crescent Princess. Instead of asking yourself, why not ask them!
But, how can you say this?
Even if she could ignore her own face, what she said would hurt the face of the princess or the royal family. If she really pissed off the emperor, she would probably fall under the emperor's sword before the world was in chaos.
There are also her uncle, aunt, and brother who are already suffering...
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi could only bite her lower lip and said solemnly: "Yes, it is my wife who failed to persuade me. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
There was a rustling sound in the carriage, as if he was leaning against the window and whispering something to the chamberlain.
I heard the shrill voice of the chamberlain continue: "Then, let's wait for Mr. Yuwen. If he doesn't come when the time comes, don't blame the emperor for punishing him for deceiving the emperor."
Shang Ruyi lowered his head, his forehead almost touching the ground: "Yes."
So, the entire North City Gate fell silent.
At this time, everyone also figured out some tricks. When the emperor came, he asked Yu Wenye first, as if he was deliberately trying to embarrass him, but it was obviously to embarrass him, why didn't he send someone to find him? Or punish him directly, but instead stare at his wife.
Everyone’s eyes also fell on the young lady of the Yuwen family.
At this moment, Shang Ruyi understood better than anyone else at any time what it meant to have a light on his back, not only the strange sights of those around him, but also the golden car parked in front of him. The eyes that seemed to be staring at her through the gauze were like thorns, which made her extremely tormented.
Time passed little by little.
Shang Ruyi felt that all the blood in his body was almost drying up bit by bit during this long wait.
Why hasn’t Yu Wenye come yet?
At this time, even though she knew that she had made an exchange with the other party a long time ago, she still couldn't help but feel aggrieved. She just wanted to catch him in front of him and ask him, if you have anything important, do you have to? Say at this time? What's so important that we have to do it at this time?
Finally, it’s time to set off.
The chamberlain said coldly: "Is Yu Wenye not here yet?"
Shang Ruyi suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Master chamberlain,"
Said, and then Looking at the golden car behind the chamberlain, through the layers of gauze curtains, he could vaguely see the figure inside, Shang Ruyi boldly said: "Your Majesty, my husband must be dealing with important matters, and I am still I hope your Majesty will grant you some more time."
Lei Yu beside her also said, "Yes, Your Majesty, please wait a moment."
Although it was just a word, Shang Ruyi was still grateful. He glanced at her - at this time, she was more isolated and helpless than ever, and even the only "husband" she could rely on was not around, but Lei Yu was willing to speak a word for her.
Just as the two people were begging, a man suddenly ran over on the long street. Taking a closer look, he saw that it was none other than the young eunuch sent by Princess Crescent to invite Yu Wenye away.
I saw him hunched over, cautiously running to the golden car, and whispered something to the chamberlain. The chamberlain frowned and glared at the little boy again. The eunuch glanced at it, then turned back and walked to the shaft of the carriage, whispering a few words inside.
Shang Ruyi knelt closest and faintly heard the words "princess" and "Yu Wenye".
Her heart was beating harder than before.
The entire North City Gate fell silent again. No one dared to speak, and even breathed cautiously. The only sound left was the whistling sound of the wind blowing through the city gate.
I don’t know how long it took, but a long, helpless sigh sounded from inside the golden car.
“Alas——”
Hearing this voice, Shang Ruyi’s heart suddenly thumped.
Why does this voice sound familiar?
She subconsciously raised her head to look into the golden car, but the layers of gauze still covered the people inside, leaving only a vague outline. When she looked further, the waiter turned around and glared at her. She could only immediately Lower your head.
The people in the car whispered a few words again, seeming to be explaining something.
After a while, I saw the chamberlain walking over, looking around, as if to make sure that all the other people were there, and then said: "Get ready to go!"
" ...?”
Shang Ruyi was stunned and quickly raised his head: “Master Chamberlain, then my husband—”
The waiter glanced at her coldly and then said, "Second Young Master Yuwen will be on his way later."
Shang Ruyi immediately frowned.
She suddenly remembered that she had heard someone say before that there were many people patrolling Northern Xinjiang this time. In order to avoid accidents on the road, they set off in two ways. If Yu Wenye was with the princess and the others, the second If the batch sets off again, wouldn't it mean that we have to be separated from them?
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi felt a sense of suffocation in her chest again. She subconsciously reached out and grabbed the hem of her clothes and took a deep breath.
Then he said solemnly: "Yes."
The waiter gave her another cold look, then turned to the team behind and shouted loudly: "Let's go!"
With this order, everyone at the North City Gate moved, and everyone came up Those who got on the carriages and those who got on their horses, Lei Yu seemed to want to say something to her, but it was too late, so she could only get on the horse immediately and lead her people into the team.
Shang Ruyi also immediately got on the carriage, and soon, their team followed the holy driver, slowly heading out of the city with the large army.
Just as he passed the city gate, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but lift the curtain and look back.
Behind them, there was a line that was too long to end, a dense crowd, but the faces of those numb people were blurred, and she could not find a face that could make her feel at ease.
At this time, Tu Sheer, who was following the carriage, looked at her with worry and said softly: "Miss, we -"
"..."
Shang Ruyi looked at her A glance, a long moment, and then a forced smile.
“We have to walk the next road by ourselves.”
