"But I still remember clearly what you said when you married me." Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "You are just a concubine's daughter. It is a blessing from your previous life that you marry into my Dingguo Palace. If it weren't for the imperial decree, I would never marry you." Her eyes fell on He Jingheng's face: "Isn't this what you said?"
"Cough, cough, cough." He Jingheng couldn't help but start coughing: "Will you stop interrupting me?"
Shang Ruoyi curled her lips and said no more.
"There will be someone monitoring you every moment after you enter the palace. I arranged this because I'm worried that you will plant spies around me."
In fact, Shang Ruoyi knew about this matter.
With such a keen sense, how could she not know that someone was secretly watching her?
The only person monitoring her was a woman, and she had no ill intentions, so she didn't say anything.
"I know that the exile of the He family has nothing to do with you. It was caused by the emperor and Shang." He Jingheng said in a deep voice: "You are just a chess piece thrown by them." But none of them thought that this chess piece would have such a great influence on you. I believe that the emperor and Shang must be regretting it now.
"On the way to exile, you mentioned divorce many times." He Jingheng gently rubbed her hand with his thumb: "This is the first time I feel what fear is. I am afraid that you will really leave." At this point, he couldn't help but smile: "It is said that heroes are hard to resist beautiful women. I used to sneer at this saying, but now I finally understand the taste of it. I have led troops in many battles and almost died on the battlefield many times. Even so, I have never experienced what fear is."
Shang Ruoyi couldn't help but laugh when she heard him say this.
"why are you laughing?"
"Your Highness, where did you get all those books you read? Why are you so dumb?"
Shang Ruoyi's words made He Jingheng stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"
"You've been talking so much, aren't you just trying to tell me that I like you?"
Hearing her say this, He Jingheng's lips curled up slightly: "What did you say? I didn't hear clearly."
"I like you." Her voice was much louder than before.
Yunqi and Yuntian just walked to the door and heard these words.
Yunqi laughed and Yuntian was stunned.
Isn't Master Lingjun a man?
What kind of lewd words did he say to the prince?
He Jingheng’s next words made Yuntian even more frightened.
"Well, I like you too."
When Shang Ruoyi heard him say this, she realized that he said it on purpose just to hear those words from her mouth.
Her pretty face turned slightly red, luckily she was wearing a mask, otherwise He Jingheng would have noticed her thoughts.
Just then, He Yunyi came over: "Where is my brother?"
"Miss, the prince is inside."
He Yunyi walked forward and knocked on the door: "Brother, can I come in?"
"Come in." He Jingheng's voice was no longer as gentle as before. Shang Ruoyi glared at him: "Yunyi is your sister after all, why do you speak in such a tone?"
"Humph, if she hadn't taken the initiative to not let the secret guards follow her, wouldn't she have encountered such a thrilling incident today? If it had been a little later, the consequences would have been disastrous."
Hearing the door open, Shang Ruoyi immediately pulled her hand away from He Jingheng's.
Seeing this, He Jingheng's face darkened.
Looking at He Yunyi who walked into the inner room, his expression became even colder.
He Yunyi walked into the inner room, twisted her fingers together, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Brother, sister-in-law."
"Go back and reflect on your mistakes. You are not allowed to come here without my permission!" He Jingheng said angrily, "What I told you before is all for nothing. Don't you think about it? If something really happens, what will you let your grandmother and mother do? What will you do yourself?"
He Yunyi lowered her head and listened to He Jingheng's scolding.
"Okay." Shang Ruoyi walked to He Yunyi and said, "It's not all her fault. If I hadn't helped you with your leg surgery today, she wouldn't have to go to the street by herself and wouldn't have been targeted by that group of people."
Hearing this, He Yunyi looked at Shang Ruoyi gratefully: "Sister-in-law..."
"Shut up and stop crying!" He Jingheng had just finished yelling when he heard Shang Ruoyi's "hiss" from the side.
"What's wrong?" He asked hurriedly without bothering to scold.
Shang Ruoyi spread out her hand, a bloodstain appeared on her palm: "Xu accidentally did it when he was dealing with Du Sheng."
Upon hearing this, He Jingheng transferred all his anger to Du Sheng.
"Someone come!"
Yuntian and Yunqi hurried into the room.
"Prince."
"Cut off the hands and feet of that Du Sheng, and throw him into the jungle to feed the dogs!"
"놆!"
Just as they were about to turn around and leave, they heard Shang Ruoyi whisper, "Wait."
Yunqi turned around immediately and asked: "What do you want, sir?"
Yuntian bowed without saying anything.
"Du Sheng's brother-in-law is the Minister of Works, and he belongs to the Shang family. If you just let him go, it would be a waste of talent."
When He Jingheng heard her say this, he knew that she had a new idea, and said with a smile: "Then tell me, what should we do?"
"Of course we have to make the best use of everything." Shang Ruoyi said to He Jingheng, "The Minister of Works has many concubines. He doesn't love his wife very much, and can even be said to hate her, but he treats his brother-in-law very well. Why is that, my prince?"
"Haha, the world is bustling with people, all for profit. He treats this brother-in-law so well, there must be a conflict of interest between the two of them." He Jingheng looked at her with appreciation: "Smart."
Seeing this, Yuntian lowered his head even more.
It's clear from the look on the prince's face that he has feelings for Master Lingjun!
Yunqi whispered, "Prince, should we torture him to extract a confession?"
"Not only must we torture him to extract a confession," Shang Ruoyi said in a cold voice, "we must also let the Minister of Industry know that he was captured by a mysterious person, so that he will be worried and afraid."
"놆!"
After Yunqi and Yuntian left, He Yunyi was looking at Shang Ruoyi with shock on her face: "Sister-in-law, you are so smart!"
Shang Ruoyi took off the mask on her face and smiled: "What's the good of becoming as calculating as me?"
Doesn't she want to live an easy life?
놆Reality doesn't allow her to live like this.
"Are you okay? If not, I'll have someone take you back."
"Something's going on, of course something's going on!" He Yunyi looked at He Jingheng and moved her lips.
After a while, she whispered, "Brother, who is in the innermost room?"
He Jingheng frowned: "What's wrong?"
"Daddy?"
He Jingheng looked into her eyes and saw that she was determined.
Sighed: "놆."
He Yunyi's tears fell instantly: "Is Daddy hurt? Should I go and see him?"
Shang Ruoyi heard this and said softly, "The prince's injury is a bit serious, it is not appropriate to disturb him."
"I'll just take a look, I won't make any sound." He Yunyi grabbed Shang Ruoyi's arm: "Sister-in-law, please, just let me take a look!"
