As the female manager of the Regent’s Mansion, Cui Ying was worthy of her two tricks. As soon as she finished speaking, more than two times the number of imperial guards rushed out from behind her. Most of the people watching the scene were commoners, so she naturally didn't want to be sued.
Cui Ying's gaze was always on the people around her who had scattered. After her careful observation, there were a few people who had a sneaky look in their eyes, and she memorized their appearances one by one.
Yun Ruoleng sat in the room of the Water Spirit Pavilion, holding a book in his right hand and a teacup in his left hand. Hearing footsteps at the door, Yun Ruoleng put down the teacup in his hand, and his gaze moved from the book to the door.
"Your concubine, the Luo Clan, greets the wangfei." Mrs. Luo paid his respects to Yun Ruoleng the moment he entered the door.
Yun Ruoleng chuckled and put down the book in his hand: "Why are you being so courteous to me Madam? "Get up quickly. Don't bully me — the pregnant woman is here to help you."
"Thank you, wangfei." Mrs. Luo was very clear about Yun Ruoleng's methods.
To be precise, Yun Ruoleng's methods were not something that many people could compare to, and all the people she had were capable, no wonder the Regent had chosen her as his wife. It was probably not because of her looks, but because of her!
At the same time as Mrs. Luo was sizing her up, she was also sizing up Mrs. Luo. She kept having the feeling that after what had just happened, Mrs. Luo seemed to have become a completely different person.
"Madam, come over and take a seat." Yun Ruoleng patted the spot beside him, "This is the jujube cake sent over from the royal kitchen today, it tastes sour and sweet. Madam, try it, if you like it, ask Peach Blossom to bring some to your courtyard."
"This is a gift from the emperor, I …"
"It's just food. Besides, the Emperor has lent me the whole royal kitchen, saying that I'm pregnant and they can cook whatever I want. How could that child know that the cooks in the prince's mansion eat better food than the ones in the imperial kitchens? "
Yun Ruoleng joked and laughed. However, when he heard the words that sounded like a joke to Mrs. Luo, his tone changed: "Your majesty is so good to the wangfei, I'm afraid someone might try to sow discord."
Yun Ruoleng's smile faded: "I'm afraid someone has already tried it?"
The Mrs. Luo nodded his head. The Regent and the Little Emperor were like father and son, plus the Duke didn't really care about the throne, the little Emperor would naturally not listen to nonsense.
Mrs. Luo sat at Yun Ruoleng's place for a while before returning. Then, Cui Ying walked in with a few pieces of paper, and gave them to Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng's eyes lit up when he saw this, and his eyes sparkled as he looked at Cui Ying: "Who taught you how to draw this, not bad!"
"Miss, where are you looking?" Cui Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw Yun Ruoleng's expression. "This humble servant was freely following the Holy Mother and was naturally influenced by her zither, chess, calligraphy and paintings. It's just that I'm not as great as the Holy Mother."
The smile on Yun Ruoleng's face froze, and his expression became serious. Cui Ying knew that she had said the wrong thing, and immediately patted her mouth: "This servant deserves to die, I mentioned sad stuff again, it makes my young miss unhappy …"
"You can't come back from the dead, you didn't say anything wrong." Yun Ruoleng smiled lightly at her, but there was no happiness in his eyes, only sadness.
Cui Ying immediately changed the topic: "All these people are the people that I observed earlier, they are all hiding in the crowd, although their movements are light, I dare to confirm that there is a problem with this group of people."
Yun Ruoleng swept his eyes over the portrait, and after he finished reading, he handed the portrait over to Cui Ying: "There are a total of five people, their appearances are ordinary, and if they were placed in the crowd, it would not attract attention, looks like the other party has long ago set up a plan to lure me out, and if it fails today, I think there will be a plan for it."
"Miss, aren't you going to check where these five people came from?" Cui Ying didn't understand why she wanted to draw these people, and why she didn't check them after she finished drawing.
Yun Ruoleng handed the portrait over to Cui Ying: "These people are all too ordinary looking, we won't be able to find them within a short period of time, we might as well wait for the next attack, we'll go with the vines to find the melon."
Cui Ying's eyes lit up, and he started to admire Yun Ruoleng more and more. He thought to himself with regret in his heart: If Third Young Miss was half as vigilant as Seventh Miss, she wouldn't have died from the poison on the ground.
Yun Ruoleng did not know what Cui Ying was thinking, but after Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he continued to read, and because he was afraid of disturbing Yun Ruoleng, Cui Ying quietly left the room.
Jun Qingshang stayed in the palace for nearly six hours. If it wasn't for Yun Ruoleng as an excuse, the little Emperor still wouldn't have released him.
Actually, Jun Qingshang felt helpless and tender towards the little emperor.
He had lost both his father and mother when he was young. Sitting in this position at the age of five, he was surrounded by schemes and dangers. Every time he acted like a child, he could only act quietly.
The person he had to protect now not only had the Rivers and Mountains of Heaven's Enlightenment, but also his wife and children. Even if he knew that Yun Ruoleng would protect him, he had no choice but to be vigilant.
When Jun Qingshang walked out of the palace and learned that Yun Shicheng had messed with the Regent’s Mansion today, he first frowned. After hearing what Yun Ruoleng had to say, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up as he instructed An Ying, "Causing a huge disturbance in the Duke Palaces is a serious crime. Go and tell Sir Dong that there's no need to look at his relationship with this duke and he'll be given a lighter punishment."
After An Ying heard these words, the corner of his mouth fiercely twitched a few times. This was not an indirect way of telling Sir Dong that those who cause trouble for the Residence of Duke should not care about his reputation.
Jun Qingshang got on his horse, and once again threw away An Ying who had slandered him in shock. When An Ying came back to his senses, he only saw a shadow turning a corner, and helplessly pulling his horse.
After Yun Ruoleng read the book, his eyes became sore and he threw the book on the small table. He leaned on the soft couch and closed his eyes to rest, and not long after he laid down, a "bang" sound rang out. Yun Ruoleng was immediately startled awake and quickly walked outside.
"What happened to you?" Yun Ruoleng looked at An Yue who had fallen in the courtyard and couldn't help but laugh lightly when he saw him fall to the ground.
An Yue had never been in such a sorry state before. He crawled up from the ground, glared at Yun Ruoleng, and walked away with a cold snort. Cui Ying and An Xiang, who were standing at the door, also saw it. It was just that the two of them did not hold back and immediately laughed out loud, especially An Xiang.
"You two laugh enough, go and clean up the things on the ground! If I fall down, the prince will definitely not let you off. " In the end, Yun Ruoleng could not bear to see An Xiang gloat like that, and ordered sternly.
An Xiang finally regained his senses and immediately ran towards the center of the courtyard, observing the ground as he ran. His originally red face was now deathly pale as it faded away bit by bit, and when Yun Ruoleng saw the change in his expression, his face darkened slightly: "What's going on?"
