Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1257 has changed history!
Seeing that the prince's people had left, the crowded road in front of the palace gate was half clear in an instant. Yuwen Ye also sent away some officials who were surrounding him and were eager to know his next arrangements. Those who could not be sent away were dealt with by Shen Wuzheng and Pei Xingyuan, and he took Shang Ruyi into the carriage.

Soon, the carriage turned around and left the palace, heading towards the Prince of Qin's Mansion.

Although Shang Ruyi had someone prepare an ice basin under the seat, making the carriage cool and comfortable, Yuwen Ye did not look relaxed sitting there. On the contrary, he clenched his teeth, his temples slightly protruded, and his face was gloomy, and it was obvious that there was still some resentment in his chest.

Shang Ruyi certainly knew what he was angry about.

She knew it the moment she saw that Xiao Yuansui was unharmed and came out with the prince.

So he said, "Father really gave Xiao Yuansui to the prince. What official title did he get?"

Yuwen Ye said, "The prince is the horse groom."

Shang Ruyi's eyes flickered slightly when he heard this, and he sneered, "Su Qinglan mentioned when she came to see Yuan Qian the other day that Father had been reading the Tao Te Ching these days, and it seemed that he benefited a lot from it. The way of heaven is to reduce the excess and replenish the deficiency."

"..."

"He not only wants to transfer you to Luoyang to balance things, but also wants to balance you and the people under the crown prince."

"..."

"But Xiao Yuansui..."

She was just about to say that this man was not someone who could be inferior to others, and certainly not someone who could be fed by being the prince's groom, when Yuwen Ye lowered his voice and continued, "Let him be the general of the Right Thousand Bull Guard, commanding 10,000 troops."

"what?!"

Hearing this, even though he had prepared himself mentally, Shang Ruyi still frowned.

The emperor is suppressing the King of Qin completely without mercy.

She looked up at Yuwen Ye again, only to see his ears moving slightly, caused by his gritting his teeth, which made his whole face look a little ferocious - Shang Ruyi knew that although he had wanted to strive for the greatest power from the beginning, he had never wanted to take it from Yuwen Yuan, but wanted to compete with Yuwen Qian. However, after Yuwen Yuan favored his eldest son time and time again, he gradually bypassed his brothers and began to fight with his own father.

But no matter what, he was still concerned about the relationship between father and son, so when Yuwen Yuan showed weakness, he actually considered retreating to Luoyang.

But the reality is...

Seeing Yuwen Ye's face turn ashen, although the carriage was cool, he felt as if he was being roasted on a brazier. The torment in his heart was almost draining him dry. Shang Ruyi reached out and gently stroked the back of his hand, and felt that his whole body was as tense as a bow that was stretched to its limit and was almost about to collapse.

Feeling Shang Ruyi's touch, Yuwen Ye subconsciously retracted his hand.

But Shang Ruyi refused to let him get away, and stretched out her hand to grab his hand directly. Even though his hand was almost twice as big as hers, she still held it tightly. She took the opportunity when his fingers loosened and slid her fingertips deftly into his palm, tightly intertwining her fingers with his.

The slightly cool palm touched his hot palm, and Yu Wenye couldn't help but shudder.

As a result, it seemed as if some of the hostility in the body was removed, and the whole person felt a lot more relaxed.

"Fengchen,"

Shang Ruyi looked at him and said calmly and calmly: "You always know what to do."

Yuwen Ye raised his head and met those clear and sober eyes, and finally found a glimmer of redemption in the torment of loss and frustration - yes, there were those who gave up on him, and there were those who always stayed with him and never gave up, and it seemed that there was really no need for him to be obsessed with something he had lost long ago.

So he took a deep breath and held her hand tightly.

"You've always been with me!"

Seeing his eyes become clear and sharp again, Shang Ruyi smiled: "Of course."

When they returned to the Prince of Qin's Palace, the Prince's Palace on the other side was also crowded with guests and noisy, which was rare.

Although everyone gathered to discuss how to deal with the Qin Palace next, no one talked about this matter after they got together. They just talked and laughed and celebrated. After all, today was a good day for them to see the moon after the clouds had cleared. No one expected that the Qin Palace, which had been pressing step by step, would be hit hard by Yuwen Yuan and had no ability to fight back. As long as Yuwen Ye retreated to Luoyang, there would be no threat to the prince in Chang'an.

This is really great news!
Even Yu Dingxing, who had been somewhat gloomy because of his injury and loss of an eye, smiled at this time, and even smiled at his daughter who had not been on good terms with him these days and said: "Crown Princess, this time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can finally rest assured."

Yu Mingyue smiled without comment.

Of course, Yu Dingxing didn't need her too enthusiastic response. After all, the atmosphere around him was already joyful enough. He turned around and said something to Su Changjing beside him with a smile. Several officials on the other side were dancing and rejoicing.

Yu Mingyue was sitting in the lobby, looking at the lively scene below. For some reason, she felt a little tingling on her scalp.

She felt like she was in a dream.

Although from the day she came into this world, from the day she realized what she had experienced, from the day she followed Yuwen Qian, she wanted to change his fate and everything in this world, and now, it seems that she has finally got her wish. It is not a question of whether Yuwen Ye is considering whether to agree to go to Luoyang, but the emperor has issued a clear decree, almost with a derogatory attitude, asking him to go to Luoyang.

Yuwen Ye, the man who always hangs over their heads like a dark cloud, will no longer stay in Chang'an and will no longer compete for power with Yuwen Qian. And there will not be a military coup under the Xuanwu Gate that is so earth-shattering that it could change the fate of the entire dynasty!
All this happened too suddenly, even making Yu Mingyue a little overwhelmed.

is this real?
Did they really defeat Yuwen Ye?
"What’s wrong with you?"

Hearing this question, Yu Mingyue turned her head in surprise and met those calm, translucent eyes. The one who asked her was Yuwen Qian.

At this moment, when almost everyone in the hall was clapping their hands and congratulating each other, the only one who noticed her abnormality and asked about her was Yuwen Qian, who was always indifferent to everything and hardly paid attention to her mood. Yu Mingyue was even a little bit unbelievable for a moment, but she saw a hint of inquiry in the other's quiet eyes.

She said: "You——"

Yuwen Qian asked, "Did you think of something?"

"..."

"Is all this different from what you remember?"

Yu Mingyue pondered for a moment, and instead of answering, asked: "Why do you ask me that?"

Yuwen Qian looked at her for a while, then turned his head and smiled calmly, saying, "I was just thinking that we did so much before just to change my fate, or to change the 'history' you know; but the more we did, the more mistakes we made - no, maybe not more mistakes, but there are some things that we probably need to do in order to move forward."

Hearing this, Yu Mingyue's face suddenly darkened.

She trembled and said, "You mean, no matter what we do, we can't change history?"

Yuwen Qian was silent for a while, then said, "At least judging from what has happened in recent years, this is the case."

"..."

“Have we really changed anything?”

"..."

"My father ascended the throne as you said, and I became the crown prince as you said. Yan Ji became the King of Qi, and he also became the King of Qin. Moreover, he is indeed extremely powerful and invincible—"

At this point, Yuwen Qian's eyes flickered: "Even at Hulao Pass, with such a huge disparity in military strength, he was able to win..."

"..."

"Looking through the history books, there has never been such a victory in all dynasties."

"..."

"I think, maybe he really is the chosen one—"

"Your Highness!"

Before he could finish, Yu Mingyue interrupted him with a ruthless look in her eyes, and said in a deep voice: "But he has already lost. He has been demoted to Luoyang by his father, and he can no longer compete with you for the position of crown prince!"

"..."

"We have changed history!"

"..."

Yuwen Qian turned his head to look at her, his thin lips moved slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything, just pursed his lips and smiled faintly.

"maybe."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the people in the hall. Although they were celebrating that the Qin Wang's family was finally going to be cleared out of Chang'an and no longer posed a threat to the Crown Prince, everyone's celebration seemed to have nothing to do with him. He was like a person standing quietly on the shore, watching the rippling water.

Yuwen Qian smiled faintly, then stood up and walked out.

Looking at his back, Yu Mingyue frowned, and her originally dazed expression became sharp.

perhaps……?
When dealing with someone like Yuwen Ye, there is no such thing as “maybe”.

We must defeat him thoroughly and make sure he never has a chance to turn things around, only then can we feel at ease. Yuwen Qian was right - this was probably why Yuwen Ye's attitude had been so strange since he returned victorious from the Battle of Hulao Pass. Winning a battle with such a huge disparity in strength was something that ordinary people could hardly imagine - Yuwen Ye was not an ordinary person.

What Yuwen Qian didn't finish saying actually made sense.

This person may be the chosen one.

But in comparison, isn’t it the same for myself who has truly experienced life and death?

Thinking of this, Yu Mingyue took a deep breath and raised her head, but what she saw was still a group of people celebrating enthusiastically. Although everyone saw the prince get up and leave, he often did this on weekdays and did not often participate in discussions with them, so everyone was not too surprised. However, when Yu Mingyue saw that even her father Yu Dingxing and several other old ministers were chatting and laughing, as if no one noticed what they had just said, Yu Mingyue felt a chill in her heart, as well as a sense of desolation and loneliness as if the room was full of friends but with few soulmates.

At this moment, she saw a pair of eyes that were as bright and sparkling as pearls.

This was the only person in the lobby who seemed a little unfamiliar to her, but he had also been famous for a long time.

Xiao Yuansui.
