Chapter 013: It's no good to offend anyone

In the Prince's Mansion, when He An entered the room, he saw Ji Lingchuan sitting with his legs crossed, and his expression immediately became gloomy.

Ji Lingchuan chuckled twice and pointed to the seat next to him: "Sit down, sit down."

Jiang Ming went to Ji's house yesterday and clearly said that Ji Mingchuan had not returned yet. It seemed that this guy just didn't want to help, so he deliberately made people say that he had not returned to Beijing yet. Unexpectedly, he ran into him today.

Ji Lingchuan was frightened by his gaze and shook his shoulders: "You can't blame me for this. I'm a grown man and I haven't even started a family yet. If you really leave Liu Yueru in my house, rumors will surely spread everywhere."

"Are you the only one in Ji's house?"

"My parents are not very willing to do it." Ji Lingchuan pretended to be embarrassed: "They don't have a very good impression of Liu Yueru. When they heard your request, they immediately refused. I can't do anything about it."

"Why do you have a bad impression?" He An frowned.

Ji Lingchuan was about to scold him for being ignorant, but then he thought about He'an's personality and thought it was not surprising that he didn't know the shortcomings of these parents.

"Liu Yueru was Liu Zhongju's half-sister. When Liu Yueru's mother was rumored to have committed adultery, she should have been put in a pig cage, but Liu Zhongju secretly helped save her life."

"Is that true?"

"It's more than that." Ji Lingchuan continued, "Zhong Ju was a rough man who only knew how to lead troops in battle. He finally married a wife during the truce and she became pregnant. However, he had an argument with Liu Yueru and accidentally fell during the scuffle, and he lost the baby."

He sighed and said, "Originally, after the war, he had made up his mind to separate Liu Yueru from the family, but unfortunately..."

He'an's frown deepened as he recalled what he had said to Ruan Qinghuan in Changchun Garden on the second day after Liu Yue arrived at Prime Minister Rulai's residence.

From this perspective, he is indeed quite scheming.

Ji Lingchuan rolled his eyes at her and said, "I never thought you would take her back to the Prime Minister's Residence. So, did you upset your new wife?"

"Who has offended Madam?" As soon as the words fell, the prince walked in with a thick stack of files in his hand.

Ji Lingchuan glanced at He An and said venomously, "Who else could take another girl home on the wedding night except the stubborn Prime Minister?"

This time, He'an didn't refute.

The prince did not stand on He'an's side either: "Let's not talk about Miss Liu's character, but you did something wrong in this matter. The new wife did not make a big fuss after such an incident, which really made me look at her in a new light."

Therefore, although there was a sense of affection for the couple, the commotion would also make the Prime Minister's Mansion a laughing stock to others.

You have to know that in this capital city, there are probably countless people who want to get a piece of the big melon from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Ji Lingchuan agreed: "Your Highness, what you said is exactly what I want to say. It seems that this girl from the Ruan family is either very cunning and good at laying out a long line to catch big fish, or she simply doesn't care about the Prime Minister. No matter what he did, she didn't take it seriously at all."

He An: "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."

Ji Lingchuan was shocked when he heard this: "You reacted so strongly, could it be that I guessed it right? The new wife really doesn't like you?"

While listening to the prince talking about the disaster relief in Lucheng, He'an was thinking about every detail of his interactions with Ruan Qinghuan over the past few days. Not to mention trying to please him intentionally, even smiling would make people see that it was a perfunctory act.

She really didn't seem to care about his opinion, otherwise she wouldn't have made such a scene at the Ruan family's return party in front of him.

This was the first time He An was ignored like this, and the other person was his new wife. He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

At night, Ruan Qinghuan invited her mother-in-law back to Changchun Garden, and her plan was half fulfilled. As long as her mother-in-law stayed here, He'an would have to sleep in the study tonight.

Back in the modern world, she was an unknown white-collar worker. When she had nothing to do, she liked to go to the lifestyle center for massage. She never expected that after traveling through a book, she would have to rely on this skill to save her life.

Meng Suqiu was lying on the couch, and after being pressed by Ruan Qinghuan, she felt so comfortable that she liked her daughter-in-law even more. She praised her, "She is so restrained. I didn't expect that our Qinghuan has these two tricks."

She didn't feel tired during the days at Fuyuan Temple, but when they came back, the old man insisted on taking her to visit the towns along the way. After a few days, she was so tired that every bone in her body ached.

Ruan Qinghuan heard this and continued, "Mom, you are exhausted. Just one day of massage is not enough. Wait for me to massage you for a few more days. I guarantee that everything you eat will taste delicious and you will be full of energy and vitality."

"Really?" After lying down for a day, Meng Suqiu was still weak and powerless. When she heard Ruan Qinghuan's words, she was half-believing and half-doubting.

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, try it. Let's do it for ten days?"

"You must be so tired, forget it, I'll let the maid give me a beating tomorrow."

"No, mom, this massage is about acupuncture points. If you don't press them correctly, not only will it not be comfortable, but it will also easily cause damage."

Ruan Qinghuan's eloquence finally persuaded her mother-in-law to give her a massage for five days. This meant that she would have to stay in Changchun Garden for five days.

In five days, Hean's cousin should also be entering the mansion, right?

**

Ruan Qinghuan pressed her mother-in-law to sleep, and came to the yard to rest and enjoy the cool air. Although she was a little tired, she was lucky to have achieved twice the result with half the effort, and successfully kept her mother-in-law.

Xia Lian originally wanted to ask someone to send the old lady back to Meixuan, but Ruan Qinghuan stopped her and scolded her, saying that Xia Lian was ignorant.

If you want to live well in the prime minister's mansion, you have to please your mother-in-law.

Xia Lian thought all this made sense, but she was just worried about what would happen if the Prime Minister came back.

However, the young lady didn't care at all: "In such a big mansion, He'an will have his own place to go."

He An had just walked to the gate of Changchun Garden when he heard these words.

"But, my Lord and the Young Madam have just gotten married, and sleeping in separate rooms... is not a good idea."

Ruan Qinghuan leaned back in the recliner, ate an apple, and looked at the stars in the sky: "You don't understand, a short separation is better than a new marriage, two people will get bored if they are always together."

He'an frowned when he heard this. Always together?

When did they always get together?

clove:"……"

What kind of perverted logic is this? She only knew that when they were in the Ruan Mansion, the old man separated from the old lady and got together with that vixen Ye Fang.

He An's eyes became deeper and deeper. It was a pity that she had thought of inviting her mother over in order to avoid the marriage consummation.

Jiang Ming only felt that the air pressure around him was getting lower and lower, until the Prime Minister flicked his sleeves and turned back to the study, he hurriedly followed.

On the way back, He An asked, "What do you think of the young lady?"

"Ah?" Jiang Ming was confused: "Young Madam... Young Madam is filial and respectful, and takes good care of the old lady."

He An: "What about her true self?"

Jiang Ming was silent for a while, then uttered, "Young Madam is also good to you, sir."

After saying this, Jiang Ming secretly looked at the adult's expression and found that his face was darker than before.

"Jiang Ming, you've been with me for ten years. When did you learn to lie?"

Jiang Ming felt very troubled. In the past, he had to deal with official matters. There were ways to investigate both overt and covert cases. As long as he followed the rules, everything would be fine.

But this was a private matter between the Lord and the Young Lady, and he had no experience in this matter. He also saw that the Prince looked like he was being ignored and was unwilling to accept it, and he had never seen this before...

What's more, one is a lord and the other is a young lady, both are masters, and it will be bad to offend either of them.

At this moment, the door rang. Just when Jiang Ming was hoping that the young lady had come to ask for the master, Liu Yueru's voice came from outside the door: "Brother He, Yueru made a bowl of ginseng tea and brought it to you specially."
