Chapter 417 Big world, small heart
Mu Xian said: "I don't know this very well, but I heard that it is your Majesty's will."
"Your Majesty? ”
Shang Ruyi’s mind immediately pictured that plump face with pink makeup—Chu Chengfei?
Is this his order?
The King of Zhao, Chu Chengfei, who used to be naughty and mischievous in front of him, was just a child who didn't grow up. Although he was now supported as emperor by Yu Wenyuan and was responsible for the important principles of the country and the country, Shang Ruyi knew very well in his heart that this child's future , only in front of you.
Furthermore, he is only so old after all, so it is impossible for him to become sensible overnight, and to be so sensible.
I'm afraid there are other people who will make a decision for him in this matter——
The Queen Mother?
Or the Crescent Princess?
No matter who it was, Shang Ruyi finally understood why Yu Wenye was in a hurry to go out before dawn today and didn't even go to court with his father and brother. He should be fighting for an opportunity for himself to go to Fufeng.
No matter how much he tried to win over the ministers at the court meeting, it would be difficult for him to make the final decision. The final decision could only be made by the emperor, and those who could influence the emperor were the queen mother and the eldest princess.
These two people have a different kind of affection for him.
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi's heart sank unconsciously.
Just when her eyes were a little gloomy, Mu Xian said softly: "Young Madam, this time for the expedition is very tight. We will set off the day after tomorrow at the latest. I still have many things to prepare for. , let’s go down first.”
Shang Ruyi came back to his senses, nodded and said: "Go quickly."
Mu Xian saluted her again, then turned around and left in a hurry, while Shang Ruyi glanced at his back and also He hurriedly turned around and walked to the room. As soon as he opened the door and walked in, he saw Yu Wenye standing in the middle of the room, lowering his head to untie the belt around his waist.
He was wearing a court robe, many layers thick, but even so, his waist, tightly bound by a jade-colored belt, still looked thin, flexible, and extremely powerful.
Of course, that sense of power is not just in the eyes.
Thinking of the almost tireless movements of his waist last night, Shang Ruyi suddenly blushed again, and the steps that he was about to move in suddenly stopped.
When he heard her footsteps, Yu Wenye immediately turned around.
I could see her red face at a glance.
He said with a faint smile: "Where have you gone again? You took everyone away. I can't even find anyone to change my clothes."
Shang Ruyi heard this , hurriedly walked in without calling anyone, and went over to help him gently untie his belt. The thick and loose court clothes suddenly fell apart, and a wave of heat came over him.
Yu Wenye reached out and took off his clothes. Even his chest was wet with sweat. He said, "If I stand in that court for a while longer, I will be swollen with my own sweat."
Shang Ruyi hurriedly helped him take off his clothes and hung them on a hanger. While smoothing the wrinkles of the clothes, he said softly: "That's why you call it hot? Isn't it even hotter when you put on armor?"
"...Hmm."
Yu Wenye raised his eyebrows slightly and looked down at her: "You all know "
Shang Ruyi came back with a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead and neck, without looking up, and just said: "I just met Mr. Mu on the road. He said, His Majesty decreed, Let you lead the army to go out."
Yu Wenye nodded: "Yes."
"..."
Shang Ruyi hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and glanced at him again, as if he wanted to ask something, but hesitated.
When he met her eyes, Yu Wenye looked clear.
He said: "Do you want to ask me if I have asked the Queen Mother for help?"
Shang Ruyi looked at him: "Have you?"
Yu Wenye said: "Yes."
"..." "However, I haven't seen her yet. The eldest princess has sent someone to tell me that she has convinced His Majesty that she will attend the meeting today. Promulgated the decree for me to lead the troops to fight against Fufeng."
Shang Ruyi lowered his eyelashes, covering the sadness in his eyes, and nodded lightly.
“…Oh.”
It turned out to be Chu Ruoyan.
Her movements were actually faster than that of Empress Dowager Jiang, who had always been concerned about court affairs. She had already settled the matter without Yu Wenye even having to ask her in person.
Speaking of which, in the past, Chu Ruoyan was more innocent and naive than her younger brother. She didn’t even care about matters in the court, let alone making arrangements. After all, in her big world There is only a small heart inside, and there is only one person in her heart.
I didn’t expect it now——
When I thought of meeting her at the door of the Buddhist hall of Dayan Temple yesterday, and the numbness with almost no warmth when she looked at them, Shang Ruyi suddenly felt helpless. Out of anxiety.
These days must have been an earth-shaking change for Chu Ruoyan.
It will transform her from an innocent little princess who was pampered to a eldest princess who now begins to care about the government, and even the deployment of generals and border wars.
But is this the end of her change?
Or, what will she become?
Just when her heart was in a mess, she suddenly felt a pain in her chin, and then she came back to her senses. Yu Wenye reached out and pinched her chin, looking at her with a hint of displeasure. Said: "What are you thinking about again?"
"..."
"Are you doubting me and her again?"
Shang Ruyi hurriedly shook his head: "No."
"Really?"
“Really!”
"..."
For some reason, after hearing this answer, Yu Wenye did not feel relaxed or happy as he should have. Instead, he raised his eyebrows, showing a complex and playful expression that was half a smile but not a smile.
Shang Ruyi didn’t know what he was thinking, but the most important thing in front of him was the important matter, and he added: “So, it’s lucky that this matter has been settled like this.”
"..."
Yu Wenye was silent for a moment, his eyes showed a bit of strangeness, and said: "That's true, not necessarily."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Shang Ruyi's heart skipped a beat, and she looked up at him in surprise - what does it mean?
Yu Wenye went to get a light casual clothes and put it on himself, then sat at the table and said in a deep voice: "Actually, before His Majesty's decree was promulgated, some ministers had already decided who should send troops. There was a lot of quarreling, and the leader among them was Yu Dingxing."
When he heard the name, Shang Ruyi frowned again.
She has not completely let go of this person, or in other words, she feels that there are some mysteries about this person that she has not solved. It is just that the special circumstances yesterday prevented her from investigating further, but If you give her some more time and opportunities——
Just when she was thinking this, Yu Wenye said again: "Guess, who did he recommend?"
"..."
Shang Ruyi felt a little excited when she heard this. Startled——
Isn’t Yu Dingxing one of Yu Wenzui’s people? Then besides Yuwen Chou, who else could he recommend?
A ray of light flashed in Yu Wenye's eyes.
Said: "He recommended me."
