She had a lot of things to say, since he didn't want to say them, she might as well do it as an audience. She picked up her tea cup, lowered her head and took a sip of water.

"When I was young, mother didn't tell me to drink tea early. I still don't like this much, so all I have prepared here is warm water. However, this water is mountain spring water."

"Today, I sent someone to pick up Miss Gao from the State Duke's estate. I saw this from her and remembered that you also had one. I even gave it to you before. Of course, so many years have passed, perhaps you've broken down or thrown it somewhere …"

Xue Buyun's clenched fist was trembling slightly from anger. It was not wrong to say that she was blind!

Ru Yi smiled slightly. If she couldn't coax him, she would have to anger him. Now that he didn't leave on the spot, she felt that he had some perseverance.

She casually took a tube from the side and handed it to him, smiling as she said, "Perhaps you don't remember, but I feel that it's still exactly the same as the one I gave you before …"

Xue Xianyun couldn't help but glance at it. He reached out his hand to touch it, then quickly threw it onto the table and coldly said, "It's not the same, it's not mine." However, he did not lower his head and instead looked at Ru Yi with glowing eyes.

Ru Yi still had a mischievous smile on her face, as if she didn't expect him to look at her. Her face gradually turned a little redder, her originally snow-white skin became a little more elegant, and there seemed to be a little more charm in her eyes.

Xue Yuyun recognized the fake one, which made Ru Yi feel even more embarrassed. The one in her hand was a little hot, and it made her eyes a little sore.

There were a dozen or so lights in the hall, but Ru Yi only pointed at one spot. The candles in the gloomy hall flickered, looking outside. Once again, Ru Yi opened her mouth and spoke with a sense of calm.

Xue Xianyun's face was as white as jade under the lantern light, but it was still as cold as ice, "I only picked her up from the horse and threw her to the side, I didn't …"

Ru Yi immediately knew that he had misunderstood and interrupted him.

"I know I know, I think she probably doesn't know who you are, but she's holding something of yours, and fortunately, she didn't say it out now, so I thought of a way to steal a new pillar, and sent someone to make it look exactly the same. I wanted you to see if you could tell the difference, but who knew that you could tell right away."

Xue Chaoyun couldn't help but glance at her from the corner of his eyes. Her breathing was a little hurried, and she was no longer as calm as before.

Ru Yi really didn't want him to misunderstand. She had only called him over to ask for directions. After all, her mother still had to rely on Xue Ning Yun for help.

She stared at him with a sincere expression, which made him feel extremely happy.

"I accompanied my aunt home a few days ago. Her house was very good, and she even cooked me some rice, fried some leek and egg pancakes, and made me some bean curd soup. My uncle went to the street to buy some side dishes and some soy sauce.

Ru Yi's eyes suddenly became sore. She closed her mouth, but was unable to hold back her tears. With a single breath, she blocked her chest. She stood up and turned around. "Don't say anymore! …" I didn't eat at night, so when I heard you say these things, I'm really hungry! "

Her voice suddenly changed, and Xue Qianyun felt a pang in his heart, and blurted out, "What the hell is going on with you? How did you become a princess? "

Ru Yi didn't know how to reply.

The grudges of the previous generation shouldn't be held by a junior like her.

Royal father, mother and father, everyone had their own difficulties. It was the same for them, no one had ever let her down before, she was the one instead, because her existence was a form of harm.

Du Weizhao's wish was to stay in the countryside for the rest of his life. He wanted to be a simple village woman, but fate had made her the imperial concubine.

There was a hint of childishness on her delicate face, but she was the same age as him, yet she forced herself to wear layers and layers of masks.

She was a slightly rogue daughter in front of her father, a staunch king of Yan Kingdom in front of the ministers, and a gentle and calm princess in front of the noble ladies.

The mask was worn so many times that even she wasn't sure which one was herself.

The bell of the Royal Monastery rang far away as it floated leisurely over. Ru Yi immediately replied, "I can't explain these things clearly at the moment, so you just have to keep it a secret for me. When the time is ripe, I will tell you everything."

Pausing, she softly asked, "Mother knows that I'm still alive, right?"

Without waiting for her reply, she lowered her head and continued. "That day, the Imperial Tutor suddenly told me that Mother couldn't continue on anymore. I was scared and believed it …"

"If that wasn't the case, you wouldn't have seen your aunt, would you?" His hands were tightly clenched, his veins were popping out, and even his body was trembling slightly.

Ru Yi's heart felt as though it had been struck by a heavy hammer. She didn't retort and instead turned her back to him, giving her the courage to speak out the thoughts in her heart.

"Yes, I cannot see her. I hope that she can live well. I hope that even without Du Weizhao, the Du Family will still be harmonious and blissful …" "I hope everyone will be fine …"

He panted heavily. He couldn't help but stand up and take two steps towards her, but then he suddenly stopped. His expression finally revealed a little disinterest. "I understand."

Ru Yi managed to suppress the pain in her heart with great difficulty. She turned around and handed him the chain in her hand. "I got this from Gao Qianqian."

Xue Chaoyun silently received the money. It still had a bit of warmth and moisture to it, but when he thought about how he would often rub it with his hands, his eyes darkened.

The two of them stood facing each other silently. The light of the lamp flickered, gently swaying along with their shadows.

Ru Yi waited until the tears on her face dried before saying, "Go back and let Zhou Xuan send you back. If he doesn't look for you in the future, don't listen to others."

Xue Ning Yun nodded. As he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of Xue Liyun and turned to tell her, "Xue Liyun and the rest aren't good. You should be on guard."

Ru Yi was stunned. "I didn't know them before, or perhaps I've seen them before, but I found out today that she might be your sister. We don't have any conflicts of interest. Besides, what could she have done to me?"

Xue Xianyun said in his heart that he hadn't wrongly accused her of not knowing who she was, "Second House has a life and death grudge with my family. When my mother was pregnant with me, she suffered a lot and almost lost her life."

Ru Yi hurriedly nodded. "I understand. Don't worry, I won't be in contact with her in the future." Then he muttered, "I thought it was your sister who …"

He was feeling rather downcast.

She didn't have any sisters, and the few noble girls she had were all very respectful to her, so it was natural for her reading companions to be around her. However, as she grew older, she didn't have the intimacy she had as a child.

In recent years, she had always kept herself isolated. Even Feng Lin had to rely more on her than her sisters.

Occasionally, she would think of her childhood friends in Pingxian, Spring Flower, Ji Ming, and even Qiao Yun, who had always been choking her, and now that she thought about it, she no longer felt so hateful.

Xue Xianyun understood her loneliness, but he also hated her. In this way, he could not help but sound a little angry, "It's not a sister. It's so annoying. They live in our house, and they live in the main house. They let my parents and I live in the same small yard."

As she spoke, she rolled her eyes at Ru Yi, her voice finally filled with hidden bitterness.

Ru Yi's eyes widened. "How could Aunt agree? I think Aunt is very powerful! "

"The Old Ancestor of the Second Branch is still alive and can be considered to be my father's aunt. No matter how powerful my mother is, she can't disobey her elders!"

Ever since he was young, his body wasn't well and his temperament was quite good. In addition, he stayed on the mountain with his master for a few years. He couldn't help but feel somewhat dissatisfied with the filial piety of the secular world.

The will was dispirited.

"When I was young, Aunt doted on me. I wonder if she is doing well now? Come to think of it, I haven't met my uncle and your big brother. I heard that you have a little niece. Do you think Aunt would recognize me if she saw me now? "

Xue Chaoyun shook his head, "I definitely wouldn't recognize you. Everyone thought … that you were too much of a woman." It was an offense to look directly at the princess' face.

This sort of painless blow was completely ignored by Ru Yi. "Then can I go to your house and support you?" "At least let the people from the second house move out from the main house …"

Xue Chaoyun couldn't help but roll his eyes at her.

"Is that all you can do? We can tell them to fuck off without you. They were not good people. I accidentally walked into the wrong yard that day and heard that they wanted to plot against you. I wanted to tell you.

However, words are useless. When I saw that there was an expert by your side, and ten more of my kind who were not his match, I decided to take a breather and see if I could help out with something small. That's why I saved Gao Qianqian's life.

Ru Yi wanted to laugh. "I'm neither Yue Lao nor the matchmaker, how could you think that?" "Don't worry, I won't help others and will ignore you instead. If you think I can help you in the future, then just come find me. Uh, I'll inform Zhou Xuan."

Hearing the trust in her words, Xue Xianyun felt a little awkward. However, he didn't expect this ruyi to be like her little brother, even more intimate than the two younger brothers of the Du Family. She also felt that she had the appearance of a big sister.

Ru Yi was reluctant to part with him. "You, if you want to blame me, then blame me. I know you treat me well. It's my fault. I'll compensate you."

Xue Chaoyun turned around, not saying a word. She continued, "Where's my mother? Take care of her and let her eat and drink. I …"

She wanted to say that she would work hard and that they would meet one day, but she felt that it was better to do it than to do it, so she stopped herself.

He nodded sullenly. "I know."
