Wen Xia hurriedly went to pick up the little bun to go to the bathroom.
Chu Younan raised an eyebrow at her, "Do you really want me to go back by myself?"
This question made Su Bei stunned.
That’s right, this is not her style. She may not want this man, but she can never give him to someone else just like that!
"Let her in! Doesn't she want to greet me?" Su Bei sat upright.
Guizi's mouth twitched, he turned around and walked out without saying anything.
After a while, a woman in a pink dress walked in.
Su Bei was quite shocked by her appearance. To be more precise, it was her temperament that shocked Su Bei.
In his imagination, Ruan Ningyun should be a charming woman, or a pitiful green tea character, or a pure white lotus. However, in reality, she is very cheerful and always smiling. If it weren't for this awkward relationship, Su Bei would think that this person should be quite cheerful and kind.
"I came here today, firstly, to pay my respects to the prince and princess, and secondly, to ask for a favor!" Ruan Ningyun knelt down as soon as she entered the door.
A bit rare.
Su Bei curled his lips, "Get up first and tell me."
Ruan Ningyun stood up and glanced at Baoqiu and Guizi. Su Bei tactfully asked them to leave. Ruan Ningyun then slowly said, "It is not my wish that the Queen Mother let me enter the palace. I only ask to stay in the palace for a while. In the future, whether we can divorce or reconcile, it is all up to the prince!"
This request surprised Su Bei and Chu Younan a little.
I thought she was going to fight for favor, but who knew she was so sensible? Seeing that they were quite surprised, Ruan Ningyun smiled and said, "Actually, I didn't want to get married. It was arranged by my family and the Queen Mother. I know that the prince and princess are deeply in love, so I hope the prince and princess will agree!"
This enemy is so weak! Su Bei couldn't help but feel a little dizzy, and glanced at Chu Younan.
Chu Younan said without hesitation: "The king agrees!"
Ruan Ningyun actually went out happily.
Is the battle over just like that? Are the people arranged by the Queen Mother too weak?
Su Bei sneered.
But the misunderstanding about Gu Rui has not been resolved yet, and she is not happy to talk more about it with Chu Younan.
Chu Younan was relieved. He thought that dealing with the concubine would be a headache, but Ruan Ningyun was just too awesome! Now, he just needed to find Gu Rui and clarify this misunderstanding.
Not too difficult.
According to Yun Rou's report, Gu Rui disappeared in the room that the inn arranged for the little princess. Chu Younan knew his ability, so hiding from Yun Rou should not be a problem. Then he went to Queen Mother Mei to see if there were any clues.
A calm night.
It was also the night when the regent slept on the floor.
On the second day, Chu Younan brought Su Bei into the palace, and naturally brought little Baozi and little Tangyuan with him.
It is necessary to visit Queen Mother Yao first.
When Queen Mother Yao saw that Su Bei was pregnant again, she smiled and asked, "Have you asked the imperial physician to check? Is this a boy or a girl?"
Su Bei shook his head, "The imperial physician didn't say."
In fact, there was no need for the imperial physician to tell her, Su Xiujie had already checked her pulse and it was a boy. But she just wanted to keep Queen Mother Yao hanging.
Asking her to arrange a concubine, it makes her anxious! Asking her to favor boys over girls, it makes her anxious! I thought Queen Mother Yao was going to get angry, but who knew she was still smiling, "You are all still young, there is no need to rush."
Chu Younan laughed awkwardly. She was already threatening to run away from home, so why was she still anxious? He was so anxious! Before Su Bei could speak, Queen Mother Yao spoke again: "Have you met Ningyun?"
Su Bei was furious. Not only had she seen it before, but she had also been sold out. It was clearly her who forced the other person into the palace!
"Yes." She said calmly.
Queen Mother Yao looked apologetic, "I know you two are deeply in love, but I really can't do anything about this..."
Hmm? Are you pretending to be pitiful?! Su Bei wanted to scold her, but she said, "Your aunt asked to see me that day, saying that when Ningyun was watching a play with her sisters in Huatangchun, something fell out of her sleeve. When people looked at it, they found it was a golden lock with a nickname engraved on it..."
Su Bei and Chu Younan couldn't help but look at each other. What did this have to do with them? Jinsuo was just Jinsuo, how could it be related to the concubine?
Queen Mother Yao continued, "It would be fine if no one recognized the nickname, but the Second Miss of the Jiang family was there too, and she would have recognized at once that the thing came from the palace, and she would have also recognized that the nickname on it was Nan'er's..."
Su Bei’s eyes widened instantly.
Chu Younan said anxiously, "How is that possible? The gold lock has been lost for many years. If Ningyun had found it, she would have returned it to me long ago."
"Is it really lost?" Queen Mother Yao sighed. "You said so, but others don't believe it. They say you gave it to her, and that you said you would marry her in the future..."
Chu Younan was wrongly accused. If he really said this, could he still marry Mo Qingying?
"Mother, you must ask your son about this matter!"
Queen Mother Yao looked embarrassed. "I wanted to ask you, but somehow the news got out. Your aunt came to me crying, saying that it was spread everywhere that you and Ningyun secretly got engaged, but you were unfaithful!"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Su Bei and said, "Ah Bei, mother knows that you have been wronged, but she is my biological sister after all. I can't just watch her be so sad..."
Su Bei said, "It says the prince's nickname? What is the prince's nickname?"
As soon as the voice fell, Queen Mother Yao shut up, and Chu Younan also looked embarrassed.
What's the nickname? Why is it so mysterious?
"It's not a big deal. Let's go see Queen Mother Mei. We must not abandon etiquette." Chu Younan quickly changed the subject.
Su Bei was even more puzzled. Chu Younan had a nickname? Seeing how the mother and son kept their mouths shut, it probably wasn't a nice nickname.
The ancients seemed to like to give people cheap names. Could it be called "Amao Agou"? This really aroused her strong curiosity. This curiosity even covered up her dissatisfaction with Queen Mother Yao.
After leaving Queen Mother Yao, Su Bei couldn't help but ask, "What's your nickname?"
Chu Younan didn't reply and just kept walking forward.
The little boy was anxious, "Daddy! You have to answer the questions!"
Little Tangyuan was also anxious, "Mom asked you what to call her!"
Su Bei seemed to sense a little bit of the weirdness of the child's message...
Chu Younan followed the lead, stopped and said seriously: "Dad calls your mom Ah Bei, or Xiao Bei Bei, or..."
"Chu Younan, I want to ask your nickname!" Su Bei interrupted him quickly.
"Or maybe Madam, Madam..." Chu Younan answered the child slowly, then looked at Su Bei, "By the way, Madam, what do you think we should give the little princess when she turns 100? Oh, right!"
As if he suddenly remembered something, he turned around and quickened his pace.
Su Bei was confused. Although he didn't ignore her, he still ignored her!
