Chapter 365： finally back to Beijing

Chapter 365 Finally returned to Beijing

It has been close to the end of the year, and a group of people is driving on the official road from Changzhou City to the capital.

Not only Ruan Youqing's family returned to Beijing, but Taifu Xiao, his granddaughter Xiao Deyin and the fourth prince Li Han were also with them.

On this road, when there are many people, it will be extraordinarily lively, and once it is lively, the return journey will not seem boring.

It's just that, seeing that they are about to arrive in the capital, some people seem a little timid.

Looking at the fourth prince Li Han who had been following behind her father, Ruan Youqing was worried that the emperor would feel uncomfortable seeing this scene. After thinking for a long time, she found a chance to talk to Ruan Ye.

Ruan Ye quickly understood what his daughter meant, and said with a deep smile that it's okay.

Seeing that her father didn't look like a joke, Ruan Youqing felt a little relieved.

Forget it, he has a close relationship with the fourth prince, and the emperor may have known about it for a long time.

Thinking of this, Ruan Youqing silently returned to his carriage.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, she was dragged into his arms.

「You...what are you doing!」

Ruan Youqing immediately covered her mouth after she let out a coquettish cry, and Fan'er, who originally wanted to get into the carriage with Ruan Youqing, grinned when she heard the sound, stopped and sat next to the driver.

Gu Changan, who was pregnant with a beautiful woman, did not reply. After taking away the other party's hand, he directly blocked the other party's mouth when he wanted to say something.

When the atmosphere in the whole car became hot, he reluctantly let go of Ruan Youqing, looked at her with hot eyes and said slowly: "Of course I want to do something."

Ruan Youqing turned his head away and snorted softly: "I've already done it, so I don't need Mr. Gu to answer."

In the end, Gu Changan moved closer to her ear, with a low and charming voice: "Have you done it? What should be done...but haven't done it yet."

After the wedding, Gu Changan became more and more generous when speaking in front of Ruan Youqing.

"Gu Changan!"

Ruan Youqing blushed naturally and withdrew from his embrace, until she sat across from him, then looked at him with shame and annoyance.

Seeing that his little fox was about to explode, Gu Changan smiled lowly, leaned closer and held her hand in his own: "The lady has already called her husband by his name?"

「Who made you like this…like this…」

"What is this?" Gu Changan raised his eyebrows slightly, waiting for Ruan Youqing's answer.

Ruan Youqing knew that he was deliberately provoking her, so she snorted again and made a gesture to take her hand out of his hand.

Seeing this, Gu Changan quickly interlocked her fingers. After that, he coaxed with a doting face: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, what did you say to your father-in-law when you went out just now?"

Ruan Youqing felt a little embarrassed at someone's obedient change of words at first, but as he yelled more smoothly, Ruan Youqing became more and more used to it.

"It's almost time to arrive in the capital, I think the fourth prince is a little nervous."

Gu Changan slowly replied while rubbing her fingers: "He hasn't come back for so many years, he is naturally nervous. After all, when he left Beijing and went to Changzhou City, he could be regarded as running away from home."

"It's understandable to say that. It's just that what I just talked about with Dad is not about this matter. These days, I feel that the Fourth Prince seems to have a different kind of dependence on Dad. We just need to stop and rest At that time, the fourth prince must stick to my father. My brother has never been like this before...I am worried...after returning to the capital...the fourth prince will be estranged from the emperor...if this is the case...will it...make the emperor misunderstand what?"

After finishing speaking, Ruan Youqing saw Gu Changan looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

"Little fool, you still don't know how much the emperor trusts and protects your Ruan family?"

Ruan Youqing lowered his head and said softly, "I know the emperor trusts us...but..."

A companion is like a tiger...

Especially the tragic experience in the previous life made Ruan Youqing not dare to let go.

The position above 10,000 people is the easiest to suspect...

Although she already knew that the emperor is an enlightened, benevolent and wise emperor, and also knew that her father and the emperor had a deep affection, but... the relationship with the emperor is like walking on thin ice...

After silently sighing in his heart, Ruan Youqing continued to speak: "Forget it, let's talk about it when we return to the capital."

When they return to the capital, they may be able to know whether the emperor really trusts their Ruan family and protects their Ruan family.

As long as the Ruan family can stay safe and sound, she will be content.

Thinking of this, Ruan Youqing naturally thought of the two culprits of her grief in her previous life, Li Yi and Rong Yan.

Although she and Gu Changan knew their current fate in the correspondence.

But...some things, she still has to make a deal.

Thinking of this, Ruan Youqing calmly asked directly: "Are Li Yi and Rong Yan still locked up?"

When mentioning these two people, the smile on Gu Changan's face gradually dissipated, and he replied in a strict voice: "Rong Yan has shot you many times before, so I will save her life for you. As for Li Yi..."

"He's dead?" Ruan Youqing's tone was a little urgent.

Seeing this, Gu Changan was a little dissatisfied and said, "Madam, this will make me think you are worried about him."

Ruan Youqing quickly shook his head and said, "No, I'm not worried about him. I just don't hope that he...will die quickly."

In the end, Ruan Youqing didn't care at all about the dark hostility he showed in front of Gu Changan.

After feeling the murderous intent on Ruan Youqing's body, Gu Chang'an got up and sat beside her, then put his arms around her shoulders.

"Don't worry, he... will not die quickly. Now he can be said... he is neither human nor ghost. When I return to the capital, I will take you to see it?"

"Okay." Ruan Youqing immediately smiled sweetly at Gu Changan after hearing this.

And Gu Changan also pinched the soft flesh on her face with a doting smile.

Those who didn’t know it thought that the two were talking about some romantic and interesting things.

After staying for a few days, they finally returned to the capital.

Ning Kingdom's national defense general returned triumphantly, and naturally many people greeted him at the gate of the city.

Even, except for the elderly officials in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, everyone else basically came to the gate of the city.

It's just... Among them, there are those who really admire, and there are also some who have twists and turns in their stomachs.

Although it was the emperor's will to have all the officials greet them at the gate of the city, some people just like to speculate on the emperor's true intentions.

For example... Could it be... The emperor wants to see if they are forming a party or not? Or... the emperor just wanted to kill the Ruan family?

Until this group of people surrounded the Ruan family and entered the palace, arrived at the Chengming Hall, and saw the emperor getting off the throne excitedly and coming in front of Ruan Ye, the expressions of those who liked to think too much were a little complicated.

Their emperor...how does it look...

Feeling aggrieved and want to cry?

Seeing that the emperor's eyes were reddish, Ruan Ye, the general who protected the country by killing all the people of the Jie people, was also a little excited at this time.

The two of them looked at each other with their hands in their tears, choking speechlessly.

Others dare not show their anger, but Gu Changan walked between the two of them calmly, and said slowly, "Your Majesty, my father-in-law, there are many people, and the two of you should turn around and talk about the past slowly."

The sound is not too loud, but enough for the ministers to hear clearly.

Why do they have a feeling of...accidentally overhearing other people's family affairs?
