"How can people feel at ease if a woman like you goes so far alone?" The old princess frowned slightly: "Why don't you leave the matter to Jingxi or your third uncle?"
He Jingxi heard this and waved his hands: "Grandma, I can do this job."
"Yes!" He Zhiyuan also said, "He family affairs have always been managed by Ruoyi. I am also very familiar with Beiling's business dealings. It is better for me to intervene."
The old princess glared at them secretly, and after hearing their refusal, she had no choice but to give up.
But before Shang Ruoyi left, she gave her many instructions.
"As a woman, you should try to show your face in public. If there is anything, try to let the servants do it." The old princess whispered, "lest you lose your status for nothing."
"Grandma, what's wrong with a woman showing her face in public?" She raised her chin slightly, a faint cold light flashing in her eyes: "The so-called status is given by oneself. If it is disturbed by the eyes of the world, and the whole life is under the eyes and discussions of others, what's the point? There is a saying: be happy and have fun, sit in a banquet with the guests, the scenery can be preserved, life is like a turning tumbleweed, it is better to achieve it early than late, and it is shameful to be compared with an old fisherman. People should live happily and sing wildly, grandma, what do you think?"
The old princess looked at her and murmured, "Time can only last, life is like a tumbleweed." After a while, a self-deprecating smile appeared at the corner of her lips: "I am an old man, but I am not as clear-headed as a little kid like you."
"Yes, mother, although Ruoyi is young, her insights are extraordinary." Qin said with a smile: "I feel most at ease leaving the He family to her."
"Come with me." The old princess took her to the inner room, took out a box from the cabinet, opened it, and found a ring inside.
Shang Ruoyi's pupils shrank slightly. This was exactly the same as the one He Jingheng gave her.
When the old princess saw her expression, she knew that she had seen this ring before.
"Haha, it seems that Jing Heng has already given the ring to you." The old princess said with a smile: "In this way, he recognizes your position as the mistress from the bottom of his heart."
"Grandma, what on earth is this?"
The old princess took out the ring and placed it in Shang Ruoyi's palm: "From now on, the He family will really be handed over to you." The old princess said solemnly: "There are two rings in the Dingguo Palace. One can command thousands of troops, and the other is the key to the underground palace."
"Underground palace?"
"No, I also know what is in the underground palace. When your grandfather handed it to me, he only said that it was of great importance and must be kept properly."
Shang Ruoyi was a little confused: "Then why did you give this ring to mother?"
The old princess shook her head and said, "Your mother-in-law is weak by nature. Even a concubine dares to climb over her. If such an important thing was entrusted to her for safekeeping, who knows where it would have gone long ago."
"Grandma, I can't keep such an important thing." Shang Ruoyi refused and said, "I'd better leave it with you."
"Child, grandma is old, and I don't know how long she can live. You should take care of things clearly. If something happens and no one inherits this ring, there will be a big mess." The old princess put the ring in her hand: "Since I give this thing to you, it means I recognize you. Under the Dingguo Palace, everything will be managed by you."
Shang Ruoyi nodded and put the ring away after hearing this: "Grandma, don't worry, I will keep it well."
This time, Shang Ruoyi still brought 깊 Acheng and Shaoyao with her.
Ever since the two of them rode together, their relationship had become much more ambiguous than before.
Shang Ruoyi looked at Shaoyao's blushing face and couldn't help shaking her head. If she had known earlier, she should have brought Yunqi out.
Along the way, Shang Ruoyi discovered that more and more people were heading to Beiling.
Beiling is located in the far north, and there are not many people coming and going for business. How come there are so many vendors?
Just then, the conversation of several people passing by reached Shang Ruoyi's ears.
"Have you heard? There is a purple oriental pearl at the Beiling Auction House!"
"Of course I have heard of it. The purple oriental pearl has not been seen for a hundred years. That is why I have come all the way here."
"Even if I can capture it, it would be a great honor to see it with my own eyes. It would be a waste of time!"
"I don't know which force will end up with such a precious treasure."
Just then, a luxurious carriage slowly appeared in everyone's eyes.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" a man shouted, "If you delay my sister's schedule, I'll make you suffer!" I saw him raising his whip high and swinging it at the people on both sides of the road.
"Heart!" The whip was lashed towards Shang Ruoyi's face. Ah Cheng flew forward, grabbed the whip and pulled it hard. The coachman was taken out of the carriage and hit the ground heavily.
"Ouch! It hurts so much!" The man cried out in pain and got up from the ground: "Who! Who plotted against me!"
The carriage door opened, and a woman in purple grabbed the reins, stopped the carriage, and shouted angrily: "How dare you! How dare you attack our sister Xiao's carriage? Are you still alive? I have no patience!" She cast her eyes on Ah Cheng: "You are the one who took the whip away!"
Ah Cheng's face was stern: "So what?"
The woman pulled out a thin whip and said, "How about this? I will show you what happens if you offend the right person."
Just then, a woman's voice came from the carriage: "Child."
"Sister 께."
Just when everyone thought that the woman in the carriage would ask the maid named 꼇儿 to stop, she said in a cold voice: "You must hold back."
"yes!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but widen their eyes.
This is simply unreasonable. It was clearly her driver who whipped the whip around and almost hurt the master. How could she turn the tables on him? It is really speechless.
Xiao Er sneered and raised the whip. The whip was covered with dense barbs. If someone was whipped by the whip, the skin on his body would be lifted up. The barbs on the whip glowed with a faint green light under the light, and it was obvious that they were poisonous.
She just raised her eyebrows and whipped Ah Cheng in the face.
Ah Cheng has been with Yun Shang Ruoyi these days, training with Yun Qi every day, and Yun Qi's moves are no match for Yun Qi.
He drew out the soft sword from his waist, with a thin whip wrapped around the sword. Ah Cheng snatched the thin whip away with a clever move, and Xiao'er fell heavily to the ground.
"Ah Cheng, that's enough." Shang Ruoyi said calmly, "You will miss your trip."
"Yes, sir."
He threw the whip to the ground and turned away.
Xiao Er's eyes were filled with anger, wishing she could stab Ah Cheng through and through.
How could she be willing to embarrass herself in front of everyone? If she loses to the person in front of 깊, Sister 께 will punish her severely when she returns.
She clapped her sleeves, and a hidden weapon flew out.
