Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 697: What to do with the position of Crown Prince?

The blazing flames were constantly beating in front of his eyes, but they could not disturb Yu Wenye's thoughts. It was not until a gentle breath approached that he withdrew his thoughts from the dark abyss.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Shang Ruyi approaching.

Under the firelight, after washing away the blood stains that had been stained on the bank of the Cangtou River, her cheeks looked particularly white and clean, but she was a little thinner than when she left, and she seemed a little more pitiable.

Yu Wenye felt that his heart couldn't help but feel weak.

However, before he could say anything, Shang Ruyi had already walked over and sat down. After thinking about it, he moved closer to him. After being quiet for a while, he rested his head on his shoulder. The soft and fragrant breath immediately Dye it.

Yu Wenye was slightly startled.

Although this is not an overly intimate move for the couple, after all, the two of them were closer than this on horseback just now, but no one was watching at that time; but now, they are in the camp. In the center, there are busy figures coming and going around. You can even see Shen Tutai walking over, laughing and scolding, and carrying away the good boy who was struggling and wanted to come here.

Normally, Shang Ruyi would not be willing to show such a childish attitude in public, especially in the military.

What's going on here?
Thinking of this, he turned his face slightly and put his cheek against Shang Ruyi's forehead. When he lowered his eyes, he could see her long and trembling eyelashes, as if she was breathing rapidly and restlessly heartbeat at this moment.

Yu Wenye said: "What's wrong?"

Shang Ruyi said: "What should I do with the position of prince?"

"..."

"When you went on the expedition, my father said that whoever can capture Taiyuan will be crown prince."

"..."

"But, you didn't enter Taiyuan City..."

Shantong'er had just told him that Yu Wenzhen was the one who attacked Taiyuan at the same time as Yu Wenye. They were two groups of people who combined to attack the city; but now she understood why General Pasha had almost no resistance at all, but he came back. At that time, he told Ashina Zari that it was Yu Wenye who attacked Taiyuan.

Because Yu Wenye has been outside the city.

Even at the end of the war, when Yu Wenzhen invaded the city, Yu Wenye never entered the city in order to capture the surrendered soldiers to replace them, so General Pasha who escaped from the city saw him; and he captured nearly [-] surrendered soldiers. He didn't stop at all. After leaving half of his troops behind, he immediately went north to the Turkic tent on the grounds of "pursuing the poor bandits".

Then the person who took down Taiyuan City was just Yuwen Chou!

It had been a rough and arduous journey before, rescuing Yu Wencheng at the foot of Cangbai Mountain, venturing into Qixian County to subdue Lei Guo, and Nie Chong and others lurking in Taiyuan City, cooperating with them inside and outside... all of this ended in this result.Then wasn't this battle in vain for them?

Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi felt even more confused and uncomfortable.

"Blame me."

She never wanted to do everything, nor was she a self-pity person, but what happened this time was indeed because she was too impulsive and ran out of Qi County alone and was caught by Ashina Zhuxie, which made Yu Wenye even He didn't bother to enter Taiyuan City, only took down the descendants, and immediately went north to the Turks to rescue her.

All the hard work along the way was in vain.

But Yu Wenye did not answer this immediately. He only frowned, his eyes staring at the flames flickering slightly, as if he was really seriously considering whose fault it was.

After a while, he sighed and said, "That's all, I have a responsibility too."

"..."

"I shouldn't have listened to Yu Mingyue's lies and doubted you in my heart; I shouldn't have doubted you but refused to ask you, so that you really believed the news of Shen Wuzheng's death and did such an impulsive thing."

"...!"

Hearing the words Yu Mingyue, Shang Ruyi couldn't help gritting his teeth.

Just now, Yu Wenye had told her what Yu Mingyue said to Yu Wenye alone when she left when the plague was completely lifted, that is, when they witnessed the last batch of patients in Anlefang being cured and leaving.

Although some memories were taken away from him, Yu Mingyue obviously knew and could know more than he did.

Therefore, she should have easily learned about her "calculation" from her refusal to marry and remarried, and used this to stimulate Yu Wenye.

This is actually not a clever method, but sometimes, the simpler the method, the more useful it is.

What's more, Shang Ruyi also recalled that when they were talking about Pei Xingyuan's feelings for Lei Yu, Yu Wenye once said that men also have emotional pride. It's nothing if they are not loved, but being treated as second best is more utilitarian. And choice, this is also very harmful to men.Thinking about it now, he would have expressed such emotion at that time, and it was obvious that he also thought so.

And some of his actions, coupled with Yu Mingyue's instigation, just put him in such a predicament.

That's why the two people were trapped in this predicament.

Now, the two people are honest and honest with each other. The dilemma has been resolved, but a big mistake has been made.

Shang Ruyi only came back to her senses at this time. No wonder she had such a strong and uneasy premonition about the battle in Taiyuan from the beginning - some of the things she snatched from Yu Mingyue became her whole life. There are some "instinctive" knowledges, such as Yu Wenyuan will ascend the throne as emperor and become the great ancestor of the Dasheng Dynasty; some of them became her nightmare when she was sick and frail, and returned to her dreams from time to time, such as the prince's mutiny and the was killed, and the tragic ending of the people in that house.

Others became her premonitions.

But this time, even the premonition didn't bring her any use.

As expected, she is somewhat useless...

Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi sighed again.But just when she was really falling into the mood of self-pity, she suddenly felt the bun on the back of her head loosen.

"Huh?" She raised her head in surprise. Yu Wenye raised his hand, pulled out a hairpin from her head, and threw it into the fire in front of her!

Shang Ruyi suddenly became anxious: "What are you doing!?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Yu Wenye suddenly stretched out his long arm and grabbed the hairpin back from the flames.

What a quick move!
Shang Ruyi couldn't even react, but she was still instinctively startled and hurriedly grabbed Yu Wenye's hand: "What are you doing! You will get burned!"

Yu Wenye smiled faintly and put the hairpin in front of her: "No way. I'm fine."

Looking carefully, there were indeed no burns, except for a little carbon ash on the fingertips when it touched the firewood.But Shang Ruyi was still frightened, and when he raised his head to curse, he saw Yu Wenye saying: "I'm just telling you, it doesn't matter if you lose it."

"..."

"It's mine, I can always get it back."

"..."

"This time, we both made mistakes, and we deserved that this battle was in vain."

"..."

"So from now on, I won't doubt you, and you will trust me."

As he said that, he put the hairpin that was not even burned back into Shang Ruyi's hand, then held her little hand that was a little cold due to fright with his big hand, and squeezed it tightly into a fist: "We, there are more Chance!"

Almost instantly, the coldness and uneasiness just now were dispelled by his firm words and warm breath.

Shang Ruyi nodded solemnly.

However, there was some strange silence.

Feeling this strangeness, Yu Wenye lowered his head and looked at her. Sure enough, he saw Shang Ruyi's eyebrows frowning slightly and his eyes full of complicated emotions, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

At this moment, the gang leader brought the cooked broth and some dry biscuits.

They had been running around on the grassland for a whole day, and their physical strength was extremely exhausted. It was not until this time that they were far away from the Turkic tents before they could set up camp and get some food. Although he still felt uncomfortable, Yu Wenye immediately took the steaming soup. The bowl was handed to Shang Ruyi first.

Shang Ruyi was indeed hungry, so he immediately took it and took a sip without saying anything.

Although it was just a simple broth, the simpler the food, the more rustic it tasted, not to mention that everyone was hungry at this time. Shang Ruyi took a sip of the hot soup and felt the oily aroma overflowing, and a warm current flowed straight into his heart. , which makes all limbs and body warm.

Even though she was still a little worried, she couldn't help but sigh comfortably.

"It smells so good!"

Yu Wenye only smiled faintly and said nothing. He picked up the dry biscuits and broke them open. He threw two pieces into her bowl and said, "You've been hungry for too long. Don't eat too hastily. Wait until it's softened before eating."

"Ah."

Shang Ruyi nodded obediently and sipped the soup in small sips.

After a while, the cake softened and filled the bowl. She ate it with a slurp, and her whole body felt warm.Yu Wenye beside him also had enough to eat and drink, and handed the bowls and chopsticks to the gang leader who came to clean up.

At this time, except for this camp, the surroundings were completely invisible.

After running around all day, and with the howling cold wind, even standing by the fire, she felt chilly to the bones. Yu Wenye was ready to let her go back to the tent to rest, but as soon as she lowered her head, she met Shang Ruyi's worried eyes. .

He said, "What's wrong?"

Shang Ruyi looked at him: "Are you really going to fight for this prince?"

"..."

Yu Wenye said nothing and frowned.

It wasn't that he didn't know how to answer the question, but that he was wondering why Shang Ruyi would ask this question.Shang Ruyi obviously knew this, so he thought for a moment and then slowly expressed his uneasiness.

"I was just in a daze at the beginning. In the nightmare of that serious illness, I dreamed about all this. I knew that the prince of Emperor Gaozu would rebel and die. The people in the prince's house, together with his cronies, concubines, everything People will be implicated and killed.”

"..."

"But, I just remember now that I have never known who the prince is."

"..."

"What if it's not eldest brother, but you?"

As she said that, she looked at Yu Wenye with a trembling voice: "If it were you, if you really took over the position of crown prince, wouldn't everything I saw in the nightmare befall you?"

Then if you choose him, wouldn't you be choosing a dead end?
