"Su Yue, Su Yue, what's wrong with you?"
Several maids and servants stood by, watching him rolling on the ground in pain, ready to help him, but they didn't expect her to rush back to the backyard like crazy. Su Yue slammed the door shut, looked around with tears in her eyes and said, "Please, don't think about it anymore, don't think about it anymore, I won't have such thoughts again!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the voice around her that was like a spell finally disappeared. She sat down on the ground exhausted, and then she collapsed like a puddle of mud.
In the court, Lord Ji was proposing to the emperor that Ji Heng should marry Princess Dongping. The emperor was planning to call several ministers together to discuss an auspicious date. He looked at the silent Rong Zhen and said, "Prince Zhao, what day do you think should be chosen for Princess Dongping and the young master of the Ji family to get married as soon as possible?"
"It depends on the intentions of the two newlyweds. The other ministers are unwilling to interfere." Rong Zhen maintained a neutral attitude. As soon as he came down from the court and reached the steps, Lord Ji rushed up to him.
"Prince Zhao, please stay! Prince Zhao, please stay!" Hearing the earnest voice behind him, Rong Zhen stopped and looked at Lord Ji in front of him and asked, "What's wrong, Lord Ji?"
"It's like this. I haven't seen the princess for a while. The Ji Mansion is holding a banquet in a few days. Why don't you and the princess bring Princess Dongping with you? It will be more lively with more people."
Hearing Lord Ji's invitation, Rong Zhen was silent for a while, an idea flashed through his mind, and he looked at him and said: "Then please allow me to go back and discuss it with the princess." After that, he left. Lord Ji looked at Rong Zhen's back, frowned suspiciously, and couldn't help but think in his heart: King Zhao looks so wise and powerful, but I didn't expect him to listen to a woman.
Has the world really changed? Lord Ji was puzzled and thought about it. Rong Zhen returned to the mansion and told Gu Yunru about this matter.
Gu Yunru prepared salt-baked chicken and fried chicken strips for him, and placed snacks and delicacies on the table. Seeing that he was talking so much right after he came back, she quickly took a piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth. "How is it? I put dried plums, honey, and dried cranberries in it. How does it taste?"
"It tastes sweet and delicious, melts in your mouth, and leaves a lingering fragrance in your mouth. It is very delicious. But did you hear what I just said to you?" As he said this, his hand dishonestly touched her slender waist, wanting her to stop suffering so much.
Gu Yunru said coquettishly and sat on his thighs, looking at him charmingly and said, "Now you know, it's just a feast for all the blessings. Shu'er is almost like a normal person now, and can go out to the yard to bask in the sun occasionally."
"That's good. I haven't had time to visit Shu'er these days. You can go with me to see her later."
"good."
On the other side, Su Yue buried all the five hundred taels of gold under the roots of the locust tree in distress. Carrying so much money on her would surely attract thieves. Few of the servants in this mansion had noble morals. When these guys heard that she had received a reward from the princess, which was five hundred taels of gold, they all flattered her with a frivolous smile.
Even sleeping was frightening, and they had to sleep with the gold in their arms. As the saying goes, it’s not the thieves who steal, but the thieves who think about it. They had to find a way to bury it nearby...
Just after burying the soil, she saw a handsome young man walking towards her from behind.
The man was wearing a black gold brocade robe, with a black swirling jade belt tied around his waist. He had a pair of bright tiger eyes, staring at Su Yue quietly. Su Yue's heart sank, and she thought, could he have seen her when she was burying the gold just now?
She quickly stood up and looked into his deep eyes and said, "You... who are you? Why did you suddenly come to the mansion? Tell me now, or I will report you to the police."
The man who came was of solid build, with a fresh and handsome appearance, and he was leisurely and unforgettable. He walked towards her slowly, and the charm of his heroic figure gradually magnified in front of her.
Su Yue felt a heavy pressure coming towards her and took a step back.
"You don't even recognize me. I'm Zhuge Jinyu." Call out your princess and prince, and you'll understand." Zhuge Jinyu came all the way from a foreign country, and was naturally shocked when he learned their true identities.
He rushed here just to see Ruo Wei. Ever since Ruo Wei was taken away by that guy, he had lost his appetite, so he came here specially to see her.
"Zhuge Jinyu? I don't know her. The prince and princess are visiting the Ji residence. If you want to look for them, come back tomorrow." After saying that, she turned around, thought for a moment, looked back at his lazy eyes and said, "Did you see what I was doing just now?"
Zhuge Jinyu raised the corner of his mouth, and his gentle and elegant temperament really attracted everyone's attention.
"I only saw you sneaking around as if you were digging for some gold and silver treasures, and I didn't see anything else." After saying this, the corners of his mouth raised with a playful arc.
When Su Yue heard this, she was shocked. This handsome young man must have seen her burying the gold just now, so he quickly turned around and dug out the jewels and took them away.
Zhuge Jin was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, so he walked around the yard and saw Nangong Ruowei planting camellia. He didn't expect that Ruowei had been tamed by him like a country girl.

She was wearing a light green long skirt with a row of blue sea and clouds underneath. Her every move was full of charm, as graceful as a willow tree in the wind. Zhuge Jinyu looked at her quietly. They hadn't seen each other for more than a year, but she hadn't changed.
Her eyes were full of spring water, her face was as white as cream, and the brilliance emanating from her body was enough to make everyone else pale in comparison. She walked quickly forward.
"Ruo Wei, it's me."
After hearing the voice, Nangong Ruowei's almond-shaped eyes slowly opened wide, she turned around, and said with her cherry-like mouth opening and closing, "Why are you here?" Nangong Ruowei was overjoyed and hurried forward.
"Why can't I come? Life in the villa is too leisurely. Besides, that woman Gu Yunru told me that if I get bored, I can come to you guys. How about that? Did he give you a status during your year in the mansion?"
Zhuge Jinyu felt indignant when she thought about how Nangong Ruowei was not even qualified to be the imperial consort and followed Rong Zhen back to Da Qi.
Nangong Ruowei, with eyes as gentle as spring water, smiled and said, "My identity is really embarrassing, but I know that Brother Rong has not explained it to me out of consideration for the princess's feelings."
