Chapter 141 Promise
When Li Ruanruan heard this, she subconsciously tightened the tray in her hand.
What does this mean?
Let her spend a few days with Miss Xu?
How to get along.
It is impossible for Miss Xu to live in the Marquis' Mansion before she gets married.
Does that mean letting her go to Xu's house?
Thinking of this possibility, Li Runrun became extremely nervous. She looked at Ye Yunchu and her breathing stopped.
She looked at him from the side, but couldn't tell his attitude. He only said indifferently, "How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be so concerned about my marriage?"
"Xiuzhu's marriage has attracted so much attention, so I'm naturally concerned."
Ye Yunchu didn't answer and changed the subject: "The recipe for this alcohol is a bit complicated, and it requires a few skilled craftsmen."
"Those people in the Ministry of Industry are idle all day long, so you can use them as you like."
They continued talking about this recipe for a while.
The tea was almost cold, so Li Runrun took it out again and replaced it with two cups.
Xiao Jing watched Li Ruanruan come over to serve tea. He glanced at her up and down before asking Ye Yunchu, "Why, you, the concubine, are not feeling well today. You look so bad."
Li Runrun stood behind Ye Yunchu, feeling like she was enjoying the fun.
I wonder how much the prince contributed to this bad idea of going to Xu Mansion to accompany Xu Wan for a few days.
Ye Yunchu turned around and glanced at Li Ruanruan: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Li Ruanruan shook her head.
Ye Yunchu looked at the prince again: "I wonder if Your Highness has anything to ask her about the winery?"
Xiao Jingcai replied, "It's nothing serious. I just finished the two jars of wine you gave me last time, and I wanted to ask how the new wine is doing."
When Ye Yunchu heard about this, he said to Li Ruanruan, "Go back and have a rest."
Li Runrun's face looked a little bad. She bowed and left with the tray.
After closing the door, the cold wind blew on Li Ruanruan's body, and she felt the biting cold.
My whole body felt like I was falling into an ice cellar.
She didn't know how to get back to the ear room.
Honghua stepped forward worriedly: "Master, are you still not feeling well?"
Li Ruanruan shook her head and supported her forehead with her hand.
Will the prince send her to the Xu Mansion?
If she really went to Xu's house, she would be in trouble.
I guess Mrs. Xu's methods are even more extraordinary.
The prince said he would protect her. The prince is a man of his words, right?
Not long after Li Runrun left, the prince also got up and left.
Ye Yunchu saw the prince off and turned around to see that the light in the ear room was still on.
He sent Haitang: "Call her over."
Haitang went to invite Lirunrun.
Li Runrun came to the study, and Ye Yunchu reached out and held her in his arms.
He lowered his eyes to look at her: "Send the court doctor to check on you?"
Li Ruanruan shook her head: "It's okay."
After a moment of silence, Li Ruanruan asked softly, "Master, will you agree?"
"Um?"
"Let me stay with Miss Xu for a few days."
"Are you unhappy about this?"
He actually saw through it at a glance. Li Ruanruan lowered her head, then gently pinched her fingers before saying, "No."
Ye Yunchu pressed the back of her neck and let her lean against him. He hugged her in a very intimate manner and said, "They won't make things difficult for you. They asked you to go over there just to see if you can get along with them. Be good, and I will take you back in a few days. When the time comes, let Haitang follow you. With my people around, nothing will go wrong."
Li Runrun's heart sank. Ye Yunchu said this because he wanted to send her over.
She suppressed her heartache and tears, and thought that the prince must have his own difficulties.
I let her go because I couldn't refuse her, and I had already made all the arrangements for her.
I'll just be gone for a few days and will be back soon.
But Li Runrun was still very sad. It was not the prince's fault. It was because of her humble status that she had no say at all.
Can.......
The prince clearly said that he would protect her.
What he had just said didn't count anymore. If he really loved her and treasured her, she didn't believe he couldn't refuse.
Why didn’t you refuse? Was it because you thought Xu Wan was a good person?
By the way, the prince said that Xu Wan is a very easy person to get along with.
Li Runrun wanted to tell the prince how much Xu Wan targeted her.
But when she stood up and met the prince's eyes.
Li Runrun closed her eyes. If she said it, would the prince believe it?
She asked the prince to consider not marrying Xu Wan and to find someone else.
He didn't listen at all. The prince even gave Xu Wan gifts, including a jade pendant. The prince must like Xu Wan very much.
How can one person love two people?
Oh, sure. This is ancient times now. The prince can love not only two but even eight women.
It would be rare for him to love only two people.
But does he really love her?
At least, he still liked her very much.
That's enough.
Li Ruanruan pulled up the corners of her lips, smiled, and then said, "I heard from my father and brother that the new wine is almost brewed. Once the new wine is brewed smoothly, can the prince convert my father and brother into good citizens?"
Li Ruanruan lowered her eyes, looking obedient: "Wanting a good family is what people like us pursue our entire lives."
Ye Yunchu only asked: "Do you want it?"
Li Ruanruan raised her eyes, as if she didn't understand what he meant by asking this.
Then I heard Ye Yunchu say, "When you come back from the Xu Mansion, I will release your whole family into good households, okay?"
He also promised her: "When Xu Wan comes home, I will make you my concubine, okay?"
Li Runrun's tears fell, but she didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow.
What he promised her, in fact, someone else promised her more.
But she didn't want it, she only wanted what he gave her, and she was happy to take it.
Li Ruanruan hugged Ye Yunchu's neck: "Okay."
She took the initiative to kiss his lips. Ye Yunchu was stunned for a moment, then held her face and responded to her.
Under the flickering candlelight, their shadows intertwined, swaying along with the candlelight...
Within two days.
The nanny beside the Marquis' wife came over with a nanny from the Xu Mansion.
Li Runrun was well prepared. She packed a few plain clothes and went there with Honghua and Haitang.
Li Bai sent her away with great concern. She wanted to go, but she couldn't speak, which was inconvenient.
Now that Haitang is here, there is no need for her to follow me.
When she was still getting on the carriage with her two maids, the nanny from the Xu residence said something sarcastically: "As expected of the young master's only maidservant, she is so grand."
Haitang immediately scolded him: "It was the prince who asked me to follow him. If you have any objections, please tell the prince."
The nanny rolled her eyes, lowered the carriage curtain, and said to the driver, "Let's go. We'll talk when we get to Xu's house."
Li Ruanruan sat in the carriage, and Haitang comforted her: "Don't be afraid of being a concubine, it's just a formality. I am the prince's person, I follow them, they know that the prince values you, and they will never embarrass you."
Li Runrun took a deep breath at this time. She lifted the curtain and took a look at the majestic vermilion gate of the marquis' mansion and the magnificent stone lions in front of the gate.
His tone was calm: "Let's take it one step at a time."
