On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

When Huo Changhe returned home, he learned that Yan Ruyu had returned, so he hurried back to the courtyard with some snacks.

"Where did you go?" He put the snacks on the table. "To the snack shop. They just happened to have some new snacks. Rong's asked you to try them and see how they made them."

"Why did you think of going to the dim sum shop?" Yan Ruyu was curious.

"I went to look for you," Huo Changhe said with a smile, "but when I came back you weren't there, so I thought you might have gone there, but I came back empty-handed."

Yan Ruyu was actually a little hungry, and Huo Changhe bought a lot of snacks, all of which she liked.

Huo Changhe sat down next to her: "Where did you and your mother go?"

Yan Ruyu told him what happened in the jewelry pavilion, and Huo Changhe laughed out loud.

The smile faded, and he felt even colder.

"The Cheng family is really going too far. What on earth do they want to do? We have never had any interaction with them, so why are they targeting us so much?"

"Some people just can't stand seeing others do better than they actually are, for no reason," Yan Ruyu handed him a piece of dessert, "You don't have to be angry at them, but I'm more curious about why Miss Cheng seems to have become prettier."

"My mother said it was because she was going to the temple that day and it was not good to wear too much makeup. I thought so at first, but when I came back and thought about it, I felt it was not just about the makeup."

"You want to know? That's easy. I'll send someone to check it out."

After Huo Changhe finished speaking, he saw the jade pendant on the table and asked in surprise, "Why is this here?"

"Do you recognize him?" Yan Ruyu asked, "Is he the Duke of Dingguo's?"

"Yes, that's right," Huo Changhe picked up the jade pendant, "It was awarded to the Duke of Dingguo by the late emperor, but now it should belong to Mu Liangze."

"Back then, the Duke Dingguo's family was confiscated and the people were exiled, which was similar to our situation. I didn't expect that this jade pendant could be preserved. When I met Mu Liangze that day and saw the jade pendant on his waist, I felt a little emotional."

Mu Liangze was wearing it that day? Yan Ruyu really didn't notice it.

"It was Feng Shao who picked it up," Yan Ruyu also told the story of the abbot and Feng Shao going to the Mu Mansion.

Huo Changhe frowned slightly and said, "Shenyuan Temple needs to be cleaned up. I will go find Governor Cao. The area is large and many people will be needed. It would be better to inform him and ask him to send someone."

Yan Ruyu deeply agreed with this. Having people in the palace who can be used is one thing, but the most important thing is to use them without leaving any future troubles.

In this era where imperial power is supreme, the emperor's thoughts or words can cost the lives of hundreds or thousands of people.

As the two were talking, Rong came to ask for a meeting.

Normally, Rong would wait until the dim sum shop closed before coming back. It was rare for him to leave the shop halfway to go home, let alone come to ask for a meeting.

It must be something big.

Rong entered the room and greeted them. Yan Ruyu asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen in the shop?"

"Don't worry, Princess. Nothing happened. I just made a big order of 100 kilograms." Rong put a small package on the table. "Take a look."

There were at least eighty or ninety taels of silver in change, and a ring.

This ring... Yan Ruyu felt that it looked somewhat familiar.

It seems like I've seen it somewhere.

She thought about it for a moment—and remembered that she had seen it in Cheng Fengyao's hand.

Rong continued, "The one who came to buy dim sum was a pretty lady. She ordered five kinds of dim sum, 20 kilograms each."

"When the final payment was made, she didn't have enough money, so she wanted to use this ring as collateral. I had already agreed with her that the ring would not be returned."

Rong took out the document written by Cheng Fengyao and said, "Look, this is the document she wrote herself."

The content is not important. Yan Ruyu looked at the signature and found that it was indeed Cheng Fengyao.

Why did she suddenly buy so many snacks?

Is there going to be a banquet in the mansion?

That's not right. If it's a banquet, it should be the old woman in charge and the servants in the house who should go. Snacks, fruits and candied fruits are indispensable in a banquet, but they are only one part of it. Cheng Fengyao will not be the one to organize it, and she will not be in charge of only one item.

There's something weird about this.

Could it be that she knew that the shop was hers, and because she had been unhappy at the jewelry store before, she deliberately wanted to cause some trouble at the dim sum shop to find some psychological balance?

Yan Ruyu was unsure for a moment.

Rong's eyes flickered, she glanced at Huo Changhe, and then said to Yan Ruyu: "Princess, I have some women's matters that I want to talk to you about."

Huo Changhe understood it as soon as he heard it. Was this asking him to avoid it?

Okay, this is his yard, he has to stay away from it.

Of course, he had no interest in other women's affairs.

"Your Majesty, mother said she would make noodles for us today. Would you like to go and take a look?"

Huo Changhe nodded, stood up and walked out.

As soon as he left, Rong immediately lowered her voice and frowned, "Princess, this matter is a little strange. I'm afraid it's related to the prince."

Yan Ruyu's heart was inexplicably tense: "What do you mean?"

Rong told everything Cheng Fengyao said after she came into the store.

"She must have come here for the prince, and she insisted on having the same snacks as the prince. I wasn't sure what she wanted, so I lied to her and said the prince wanted five kinds, 20 kilograms each, but she agreed without hesitation."

"Princess, could this woman be a spy who wants to find an opportunity to plot against you and the prince? But she doesn't know that this shop is also yours. She stumbled upon it by accident, and that's why..."

Rong had a bigger picture in mind, and even thought about spies.

As soon as Yan Ruyu heard it, she understood what was going on.

She was secretly wondering in her heart, she knew that the prince was excellent, but why...

First there was Mu Baodi, then there was Cheng Fengyao.

They all worshipped the gods in Shenyuan Temple.

If Yan Ruyu had never believed in ghosts and gods, she would have doubted whether it was really arranged by the gods.

Seeing that she was silent, Rong was a little nervous: "Princess, I'll ask the delivery person to remember the route and check who she belongs to, otherwise..."

Yan Ruyu came back to her senses and soothed him, "Don't be nervous, I know who she is, and she's not a spy."

Rong finally breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out Yan Ruyu knew everything.

"However, she will most likely go again," Yan Ruyu tapped the table with her fingers, "and she will probably ask about the prince, even where he lives and what his name is."

Rong was puzzled. Looking at Yan Ruyu's smile, she suddenly understood. She took a deep breath and said in disbelief, "You...you mean..."

Yan Ruyu nodded: "Yes, you are right about one thing, she is indeed coming for the prince."

Rong gritted her teeth, her eyes full of resentment: "She is really crazy, and the sky is blind. Who gave her the courage?"

"Princess, when she comes again, I will definitely..."

"No," Yan Ruyu waved her hand, "Don't alarm her first. If she asks, just say that the young master just left and you heard someone nearby calling him what he looked like. As for what she thinks, it's up to her."

Rong thought about it and nodded: "Then the address..."

"You said you haven't found the address yet, but I heard that the snacks are not for their own use, but for street beggars and poor students who can't afford to go to school."

Rong suddenly realized and smiled knowingly: "I understand."

Rong secretly made up her mind that if Cheng Fengyao dared to come, the next time it would not be just one hundred taels!
