Yuntian and Yunqi were slapped away by their own prince. Before Yuntian could react, Yunqi covered his mouth and said, "Shh, the prince's wife is back."
Crown Princess?
When did Shangnian's daughter really become the Crown Prince's Consort?
That's not how they call her in private.
He Jingheng stared at her face and said calmly, "Don't you have anything to ask?"
"What are you asking?" Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "If I don't ask, I shouldn't know. When we get to the place of exile, didn't we say that we would get divorced when we get to the place of exile?"
She mentioned the divorce again, and He Jingheng's eyes turned cold. He originally thought that the divorce was just something she said casually because she was angry, but now that she mentioned it again, it was obvious that she had thought it over carefully.
"Why do you want to divorce so much? You should know that even if you divorce, you can't leave the exile place and will be imprisoned there for life." He Jingheng said in a deep voice: "After the divorce, as a woman, you will experience what in the exile place, do you know?"
Shang Ruoyi nodded: "Of course, but who says that women can't survive on their own?"
He Jingheng was stunned by her question.
"Since ancient times, you men have always believed that women should obey their parents, obey their husbands after marriage, and obey their sons after their husbands die. Who gave you a sense of superiority?" Shang Ruoyi fixed the dead branch on his leg again, raised her head and looked at him firmly: "In fact, many women can live well without relying on anyone. Although I was born in the Xiangfu, I have never enjoyed the life of a lady in the Xiangfu. Today, even without the identity of a lady in the Xiangfu, I can still live. For example, now you need my care for your legs."
He Jingheng looked at the light flashing in her eyes, and his tongue trembled.
In his twenty years of life, he had never seen a woman's eyes as bright and shining as hers at that moment.
Shang Ruoyi patted his leg and said, "According to your recovery speed, this leg will be back to normal in a dozen days, but if you want the other leg to recover completely, you will need surgery."
"Surgery?" This word was completely unfamiliar to He Jingheng.
"The operation is to cut you open, reconnect the broken tendons, and then sew up the incision." Shang Ruoyi suddenly laughed when she said this: "If I can heal the prince's leg, I wonder what the prince wants in return?"
"What do you want?" He Jingheng's eyes were slightly teasing: "Could it be that the Crown Prince's Consort wants to..." He suddenly moved his face closer and stretched out his index finger to lift her lower body. His fingertips accidentally brushed across her lips. Before she could speak, Shang Ruoyi said coldly, "Your Highness's leg is broken. I don't think you want this hand anymore."
He Jingheng paused, looked at her cold eyes, and withdrew his hand a little uncomfortably: "Just teasing you."
"Your Highness is so leisurely. You are almost disabled, yet you still have the time to think about those things." She stood up and looked down at him, feeling quite condescending.
He Jingheng touched the tip of his nose and coughed lightly: "Then tell me, what reward do you want?"
"Let's talk about it later!" Shang Ruoyi returned to her seat without looking back and no longer looked at him.
He Jingheng looked at her back and put his hand on her chest.
Just now, his action was definitely not meant to tease her. As for why it happened, he couldn't explain it clearly. He just stretched out his hand naturally. With his appearance, there were not many women who could even open their eyes to look at him, let alone tease them.
Yunqi, who was hiding far away, patted Yuntian on the head and said, "Now you know why she is the Crown Prince's Consort?"
Yun Tian's eyes were as big as cow's. If he didn't need to hide, he would have shouted out loud: "Prince, Prince, he actually!"
Yunqi nodded: "That's right!"
"Did that woman give the prince some kind of drug? Otherwise, how could the prince do such frivolous things like a street hooligan?" Yun Tian said angrily, "Does this woman know any kind of witchcraft? No, she can't stay! Absolutely not!"
Yunqi held his forehead with his hand and wondered if this kid was mentally ill.
Their prince was obviously moved.
Shang Ruoyi returned to her seat and lay down at the foot of the mountain with her clothes on. The temperature was not too cold at night in summer, but there were too many mosquitoes in the mountains. She secretly took out a bottle of mosquito repellent from the space and sprinkled it around herself. Although her consciousness could enter the space, her body was outside after all. If she was bitten by mosquitoes, she would be the one who felt uncomfortable.
The next morning, the family woke up one after another. The officer on duty rubbed his forehead, constantly recalling how he fell asleep.
"Boss, I don't know what happened to me. I actually fell asleep last night."
"Fortunately, nothing went wrong last night. From now on, two people will be on duty."
"Okay."
Shang Ruoyi overheard their conversation and curled her lips secretly. What would happen if two people, let alone twenty people, were hit by the smoke?
Over the next few days, except for some troubles occasionally caused by the second branch of the He family, the exile was relatively smooth.
But things were not going well in the capital.
Since the Dingguo Palace was sentenced to exile, Shangnian has been thinking about taking Shang Ruoyi away and retrieving her dowry from the Dingguo Palace.
The emperor naturally wanted to take over all the foundations of Prince Ding's palace.
In the imperial study, after the emperor discussed state affairs with several ministers, he left Shangnian alone to talk.
"My dear, now that all the people in the Ding Kingdom's palace have been exiled, all their property should be transferred to the national treasury. I will leave this matter to you personally!"
Shangnian was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my unfilial daughter was exiled with the He family just after she got married. Her dowry..."
"Of course it has to be added to the national treasury." The emperor smiled and said, "Since she has joined the Dingwang Palace, she is the owner of the Dingwang Palace. Her dowry is also the property of the Dingwang Palace. Now that it has been confiscated, her dowry must be turned in. My dear, am I right?"
"Yes, yes, your Majesty is right." Shangnian wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"In that case, my dear, why don't you go quickly? What are you standing there for?"
"I'll take my leave." Shangnian brought the emperor's oral order and personally led 500 elite soldiers to the Dingguo Palace.
He stood in front of the king's palace, with a droopy face, and said to the leader of the Royal Guards: "The emperor said that all property must be confiscated into the national treasury, without leaving a single cent."
"yes!"
Five hundred elite soldiers rushed into the Dingguo Palace. They went around and found nothing but some worthless ornaments in the palace, not even a tael of silver.
The leader of the Imperial Guards reported the matter to Shangnian.
"What? How is this possible?" Shangnian frowned. "How could there be nothing in the palace? When they left, they were only wearing prison uniforms. Even if they hid some gold and silver, it was very limited. How could they empty the palace?"
