Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1264 Yu Wenyuan's Good Daughter-in-law

The one who spoke was Shang Ruyi.

She was sitting next to Yuwen Ye, in the depths of the equally dimly lit lobby. Because of her petite figure, she was almost completely shrouded in the darkness. But the moment she uttered these light words, her petite figure seemed to have grown countless times larger in an instant.

But immediately, two voices said almost at the same time: "No!"

Not surprisingly, Shang Ruyi looked at Yuwen Ye, who had a stern look beside him, and then at Shen Wuzheng, who had a very ugly expression on his face. When she thought about how these two people were obviously incompatible, but sometimes, they seemed to have a telepathic connection, she couldn't help but chuckled.

Yuwen Ye raised his head and exchanged glances with Shen Wuzheng. The two immediately turned their eyes away. He lowered his head and glared at Shang Ruyi: "This is not a joke."

Shang Ruyi still had a faint smile on her lips, and turned to look at him: "I'm not kidding either."

"..."

"No matter who stays here, the emperor will not let them go easily. If you anger him, he might punish you for disobeying his orders. How can you "play along with him" at that time?"

"..."

"If I miss this opportunity, will there be such a good opportunity next time?"

"..."

"But I'm different. I—"

"no!"

This time, it was Shen Wuzheng who spoke. His face was ashen and there was a hint of regret in his eyes.

In fact, when he just said that there was a gap in this plan, he had a bad feeling in his heart. He just didn't expect that Shang Ruyi's reaction was faster than his. Before he could think of how this matter could be resolved, Shang Ruyi had already thought of a solution.

It's her.

Only if she stayed would Yuwen Yuan show mercy. After all, until now, when the Prince of Qin's Mansion had become a thorn in the emperor's side, she was still considered a good daughter-in-law in Yuwen Yuan's eyes and could still please the father-in-law.

Shang Ruyi looked at his stiff expression and smiled, "Brother..."

"..."

"You know, there's no other choice."

"..."

Shen Wuzheng's brows were twisted into a knot. If possible, he really hoped that time could go back and let him seal his mouth before he opened his mouth!

At this moment, everyone in the hall was silent. They just looked at the Princess Qin smilingly facing her husband on one side and her brother on the other, as if she was fighting two people alone and still able to do it with ease.

Shen Wuzheng's throat was a little choked with anger, and he looked up and glared at Yuwen Ye.

Yuwen Ye also stared at him.

The two of them glared at each other, but in the end they could only look at Shang Ruyi. Yuwen Ye thought for a moment and finally spoke first: "Even if you really want to stay, you have to have a reason."

Shen Wuzheng immediately said: "What reason do you have to tell the emperor that everyone in the Qin Palace is leaving, but you are the one who wants to stay?"

"..."

Shang Ruyi blinked.

Yes, she hadn't thought about this yet. Although she was the only one who could stay without being punished, it was also a problem to find a reason to stay. Once Yu Wenyuan discovered her flaw, the whole plan would be affected. The meeting hall suddenly became quiet again.

This silence did not last long, because the next moment, everyone heard a very light tapping sound of footsteps, but that was not the sound of maids or servants walking. The footsteps were very light and wanton, and as they got closer and closer, they did not have the caution of ordinary people, but instead revealed a cheerful rhythm.

Everyone's eyes turned to the door, and the next moment, they saw a small figure appear outside the door.

It’s Yuan Qian.

He didn't know when he got here. His short and stocky figure ran to the front of the lobby and climbed over the high threshold with great effort. But when he looked up at the dimly lit lobby, the people sitting on both sides were like the strong and ferocious Eighteen Arhats in a Buddhist temple. This invisible yet awe-inspiring aura shocked him at once.

He stared at everyone blankly.

Shang Ruyi's eyes lit up immediately, and she immediately smiled and said, "Yuanzi, why are you here?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Yuan Qian was no longer afraid. He shouted with joy, opened his arms and flew towards her. Shang Ruyi also hurriedly stood up and caught the child.

The mother and son embraced each other with smiles on their faces. Shang Ruyi held him on her knees and ruffled his hair. "Why are you here? Where's the nanny?"

As they were talking, Nanny Feng and Chang Wan also ran over from outside.

The two were obviously looking for little Yuan Qian, and came here when they heard the noise. When they saw Yuan Qian already in the princess's arms, and surrounded by the trusted generals of the Prince of Qin's palace, and no one said a word, they knew that he had come here to disturb everyone. The nurse and Chang Wan were both scared and sweating, and hurried in to salute the Prince of Qin, the princess, and everyone else. The nurse said to Yuan Qian, "Little prince, don't disturb His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin from discussing important matters with everyone, let's go back quickly."

"Well!"

Little Yuanqian turned his head and buried his face in his mother's arms.

Chang Wan was trembling a little at the silent but intimidating gazes around her. She raised her hand to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead and clapped her hands, saying, "Little Prince, be obedient and don't disturb the master."

"Ok!"

Xiao Yuanqian's voice became louder, and he buried himself in Shang Ruyi's arms, with his butt facing them.

Shentu Tai was amused by this scene and burst into laughter.

Nanny Feng and Chang Wan were afraid they would be punished, so they tried to coax the child. However, Shang Ruyi waved his hand gently at them and said, "It's okay. You all can go down. Let him play with me for a while first."

The two had no choice but to retreat.

While Shang Ruyi was rubbing the soft and tender meat ball full of milk aroma in her arms, she raised her head and looked at Yuwen Ye with a bright smile on her face, and then looked at Shen Wuzheng. Both of them seemed to have realized something. They sat stiffly with stiff expressions, and their glares became more anxious.

Shang Ruyi said: "Now, don't you have a reason?"

"..."

"This child is naughty and has caught a cold and has a fever. As a mother, how can I not feel sorry for him and let him stay to recuperate?"

Yuwen Ye immediately said, "How can you curse your own child like this!"

Shang Ruyi smiled and said, "As the prince of Qin, how could he not be able to withstand this?"

Shen Wuzheng was silent for a moment, then said, "If that's the case, then what if His Majesty sends a royal doctor to see him and the truth is revealed?"

"..."

Shang Ruyi thought about it, then looked up at Jiang Wei and said with a smile: "General Jiang, have you managed to coax Doctor Su?"
