Chapter 178 The feeling of being calculated
"That's true. Why did I come to be this bad guy? That's right, let them fight on their own, so that I can sit back and reap the benefits of the fisherman." She smiled coldly.

In fact, Hongyu has always found it very strange. Isn't Marquis Dingnan on good terms with the empress? Why doesn't the empress just like his daughter?

"Young lady, did Princess Yu offend you before?" Hongyu asked suspiciously.

Originally, the queen didn't want to talk about this matter, but the secret that has been suppressed in her heart for so many years can only be said now, and she slowly opened her lips and said: "The emperor always had affection for Ruan Xiyue's mother back then. This palace gave birth to a prince earlier, so the emperor didn't let the emperor marry that bitch to be the queen, but it's a pity that this bitch also died miserably, and it's a pity that the most beautiful woman in the capital has lost her beauty."

After hearing the words, Hongyu finally understood, with a helpless expression on her face: "That's right, the maidservant has been by your side since you became the empress. Who knows, after so many years, what happened? It will be like this."

"Who said no? I thought that bitch's daughter would die of illness sooner or later. Who knew that Ruan Dingtian sent her to be raised by an expert. After so many years, she came back and married Prince Yu. This is God's will." Is it?" As he spoke, he revealed a look of confusion.

Hongyu sighed and said, "Don't worry, ma'am, even if she becomes Princess Yu now, so what, our crown prince is the crown prince, and in the future, one person will be under one person and will be above ten thousand, how much trouble can he, one Prince Yu, cause? "

Ruan Xiyue likes to hear nice words. Although the queen is used to hearing such flattery in this deep palace, she still likes these words very much.

"Princess Yu's identity can deceive other people, but not this palace. This time, I must give her a little bit of trouble." She said lightly.

Ruan Xiyue was teaching these girls how to behave in the yard at this time, and couldn't help but sneezed, and then said depressedly: "Xuemei, why do you think this concubine has a feeling of being calculated?"

Hearing this, Xuemei suppressed her smile and said, "Master, why do you always feel this way? The last time the master said that he was going to be tricked by others, but he ended up in prison. From now on, the master should not say these things."

"Oh, you little girl, are you saying that this princess has a crow's mouth?" As she spoke, she curled her lips into a smile, and then said, "By the way, where is the prince?"

Xuemei said softly: "My lord is in the study, just came back from the palace."

"My lord must be very tired during this time. You go to the dining room to make some pigeon soup, and I will deliver it to the lord herself in a while." Thinking of Gu Yuxian who wakes up early and stays late every day, and has done some hard work for those official duties. It was an unpleasant thing, but the emperor didn't appreciate it, so she was very depressed.

Seeing her princess's happy face, Xuemei couldn't help but said: "If Zhuqing knows that you are so happy, master, she will feel at ease."

Speaking of Zhuqing, Ruan Xiyue's expression turned serious, and said softly: "But I am too incompetent as a princess. It has been several months, and I still have no clues. Zhuqing died unjustly. But I can't find out the real culprit for her, she will definitely blame me."

"Master, please don't say that, sister Zhuqing will be sad when she finds out." Xuemei felt uncomfortable seeing her master's unhappy appearance.

Ruan Xiyue quickly sorted out her emotions, and said slowly in silence: "It's true, I want to live well, and then avenge Zhuqing and my mother."

"That's right, master, you must be good." Xuemei also turned serious.

When I came to the study room, I saw Gu Yuxian looking at the official document with a serious face, Ruan Xiyue walked over, raised her hand to smooth his brow, and said softly: "What's the matter, is it from the palace?" Are things bothering you again?"

Gu Yuxian was so engrossed that he didn't know when Ruan Xiyue arrived, so he smiled and held her hand: "Yue'er, why are you here?"

Ruan Xiyue pursed her lips: "My husband is busy with official duties all day, can't I come and see him?"

After Gu Yuxian heard the words, he raised his eyebrows lightly, looked at her with an ambiguous look, and said with a smile: "Of course, I can't wait for it!"

Ruan Xiyue sat on his lap, and said with burning eyes: "Ah, my father has always asked you to take all these official duties back to the palace. There are already many people in the palace who are criticizing, Ah, what do you think? Is it really okay to go down?"

"I know about this matter, and I think the eldest brother should also be dissatisfied, but what can I do about the matter that my father told me? Even if those ministers and officials are dissatisfied, so what can I do." He said with a gentle expression. None of these words affected my mood.

Hearing this, Ruan Xiyue smiled and said softly: "You are right, but what I am worried about is that those ministers will discuss in private, saying that you have taken away what should have been done by the prince. As for the matter, wouldn't it be a grudge with Donggong?"

"I don't want to be like this either, Yue'er, thank you for always being by my side, no matter how big obstacles are behind me, you will walk with me." Only now does Gu Yuxian know that with her by his side, he can do anything. is worth it.

Seeing Gu Yuxian's serious face, Ruan Xiyue curled the corners of her lips, she hesitated to say something, after deliberating for a while, she got up and walked to the table, opened the box, and said softly: "This is How would you like to try the pigeon soup I brought from the dining room?"

"Yue'er is so kind." He took Ruan Xiyue's hand and kissed it lightly.

Ruan Xiyue blushed immediately, looked back at her hand, and said awkwardly: "Ah, how can you do this, this is in the study?"

"What can't be done? Yue'er just tell me, what have I done?" As he said that, he looked at the woman in front of him with a smile on his face. The way she blushed was really interesting.

Ruan Xiyue was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in, so she immediately put aside his hand and said solemnly, "You should try this pigeon soup, it won't taste good after it gets cold! "

"Okay, I'll drink." Gu Yuxian knew that she was worried about herself, and she didn't want to make herself so tired.

Seeing Gu Yuxian drinking the pigeon soup, Ruan Xiyue raised the corners of her lips and said softly: "Ah Lian, do you think we can get through this difficulty peacefully this time?"

Seeing Ruan Xiyue's expectant look, Gu Yuxian said softly: "Of course I will, my woman is so smart, there is nothing that can be difficult for her, isn't it?"

Ruan Xiyue was still worried at first, but when she heard this sentence, she immediately suppressed her feelings, and said with a serious face: "Maybe you are right, we can definitely get through this difficulty, regardless of those No matter how people try to frame us, we have to bear it, and when we find an opportunity, we will fight back fiercely."

"It's good that Yue'er can understand, it's just that... your husband has made you feel wronged." Gu Yuxian said seriously.

However, when Ruan Xiyue heard this sentence, she looked indifferent, and said slowly in deep thought: "You and I are husband and wife, what does it mean to be wronged? Besides, husband and wife have to bear these things together ,Is not it?"

Seeing her smile, Gu Yuxian smiled and shook his head: "Okay, just follow what Yue'er said, and you and I will bear it together in the future, okay?"

After hearing what he said, Ruan Xiyue curled her lips, nodded with a smile, and said, "Of course it's all right."

"My lord, those beautiful girls have already been arranged. Will they be sent to the palace tomorrow morning?" Hua Qing asked.

This made Gu Yuxian a little embarrassed, and immediately looked at the woman beside him with a puzzled look, and said, "Yue'er, what do you think?"

Ruan Xiyue was silent for a while, and then said softly: "It's nothing, I'm just a little worried, and I'm afraid these women will regret it."

"How could it be? This is their own choice, and it's their own business to regret it. It's better for Yue'er not to take it to heart." Gu Yuxian said seriously.

After seeing what he said, Ruan Xiyue felt a little depressed. After thinking about it for a while, she smiled and said: "I'm just pitying them. After all, being in the palace is never as simple as we think, but these women I don’t know, do they think the palace is a prosperous place?”

So Yue'er was worried about this?Thinking of this, Gu Yuxian turned serious, lowered his voice and said, "Yue'er, everyone has their choice, so don't be too sad, I believe they all have their reasons, don't they?"

"Really?" Although Ruan Xiyue knew that these women entered the palace voluntarily, she still felt a little sorry.

While pondering, Gu Yuxian smiled softly: "Some people spend their entire lives for love, and some people spend all their lives for fame and wealth, so, Yue'er, don't make things difficult for yourself for other people's lives, is that good?"

Ruan Xiyue smiled gently, and said softly: "What Ah Lian said is true, I understand."

In the early morning of the next day, Ruan Xiyue personally sent these beautiful girls into the palace. When they formally met the emperor, they had to go through a few days of training by the palace ladies.

"Sister Wangfei, what are we going to do in the palace? Didn't we say it will take a few days?" As he said that, he showed a puzzled face.

After hearing the words, Ruan Xiyue became serious and said solemnly: "Of course I want to send you to the female officials for training. You need to take exams for piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I hope you can all be more serious. After all, you have come to this step. Not easy, what do you think?"
