"I didn't expect Deng Yi to actually bring you to the Su residence," Su Ruojin said as she walked to Su Muyao's side.
Su Muyao was familiar with the Su residence, and at this moment she stood quietly in a corner of the Su residence, somewhat out of place with the bustling Su residence.
"I should come and see Fifth Brother's wedding," Su Muyao said, looking at Su Yiting, who was happily drinking with others.
"Do you regret it now?" Su Ruojin stood next to Su Muyao, also looking at Su Yiting not far away.
"Didn't my older sister tell me that people have to be responsible for their choices? Since I've chosen this path, I have nothing to regret," Su Muyao said calmly.
"Now that the Su family has restored its reputation, Deng Yi will probably not make things difficult for you and will likely marry you as his principal wife."
"There's no need for you to worry about that, elder sister. Whether I am your wife or your concubine, since I have chosen Deng Yi, I will naturally prioritize him for the rest of my life."
Just then, Deng Yi walked over and bowed to Su Ruojin, saying, "Greetings, Your Highness. Your Highness, it's getting late, Mu Yao and I should head back now. We'll definitely bring Mu Yao to pay our respects to Your Highness another day."
Su Ruojin nodded and watched the two leave.
Xiao Yanchu walked up to her and said, "He's been behaving well lately, nothing unusual. Did you and Su Muyao have a bad chat?"
Su Ruojin knew that the "he" Xiao Yanchu was referring to was Deng Yi, and gently shook her head, "It's not a matter of whether it's pleasant or unpleasant."
She didn't say anything more, but continued to watch the two figures from behind, one in front of the other, which was very proper.
"Tomorrow, my third brother and I are going to Ciyun Nunnery. I want to see if Miss Qin's face can be healed. You have things to do, so you don't need to come with me. Your third brother will be fine."
Su Ruojin didn't tell Xiao Yanchu about her third brother's love life for the time being; she'd wait until everything was settled before telling him.
With the Su family's affairs settled, Xiao Yanchu still had many matters to attend to in the court. Ciyun Nunnery wasn't far away, and with Su Wenzhou by his side, he felt at ease.
"Alright, then go early and come back early. I'll have An Yi go with you."
"good."
The guests gradually took their leave, and Su Ruojin returned to Madam Su's side to see them off together.
After everything was over, Xiao Yanchu took her and the Su family back to the Prince's Mansion.
Su Ruojin had originally planned to talk to Xiao Yanchu about the child, but then thought it best to wait until she returned from Ciyun Nunnery.
The next morning, Su Wenzhou came to pick up Su Ruojin, and they arrived at Ciyun Nunnery in a little over an hour.
In the Great Chu, there are not many nunneries for women to become nuns, and there are none in Yulin. This is why Qin Xiaoyan chose to stay at Ciyun Nunnery near the capital.
When the abbot of the nunnery heard that the Regent's wife had arrived, he hurriedly led the nunnery staff to greet her.
"This humble nun greets the Princess."
“Master, there’s no need for such formalities. I came to worship Buddha on a whim and also to see an old friend from the nunnery.”
The host was somewhat surprised to hear that the princess had come to visit an old friend.
"Who is the princess's old friend?" the abbot asked cautiously.
"I only know that her secular name is Qin Xiaoyan, but I don't know what her Buddhist name is in the nunnery."
Upon hearing this, the abbot and the nuns in the temple looked towards the last row of the crowd.
Su Ruojin followed everyone's gaze and looked over.
Qin Xiaoyan was dressed in a light blue robe, her long black hair simply tied back, her head bowed as she blended into the crowd.
I suppose he hasn't had a chance to be ordained yet.
