At this time, Murong Yu's house was not peaceful either.

Thirty big boards were used to beat him to pieces.

The doctor came to see him and said it would take at least seven days before he could get out of bed.

Murong Yu's face turned pale.

Compared with the pain in my body, my heart was even more numb.

In just one day, he lost too much.

The help of the General's Palace, the trust of his father, his title and salary...

The great cause he had planned seemed so far away and vain at the moment.

Ning Lanxue was crying next to him, which made him even more upset.

"do not Cry!"

A sharp shout silenced Ning Lanxue for an instant.

She bit her lip.

"Your Highness...do you blame me?"

Murong Yu turned his head, looked into Ning Lanxue's red and swollen eyes, frowned, and finally relented.

He turned his head.

"Lan Xue, let me ask you, today in the Qianyuan Palace, if I had not stopped my father from dealing with you, would you have been prepared to tell me about my clique for personal gain in order to protect yourself?"

Ning Lanxue was stunned.

Then he raised his hand.

"I swear that I am sincere to His Highness and will never betray His Highness! If I have second thoughts, I will die badly!"

"I just said it casually, you don't need to make such a vicious oath."

Murong Yu lay on the bed, feeling extremely tired and wanting to rest.

The pain in his body kept him from sleeping, so he could only endure it.

At this time, he suddenly thought of Shen Ruoxi.

If she were here, could she prepare some herbs to relieve his pain instead of crying uselessly here.

The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became and couldn't help but speak.

"Lan Xue, you are tired today. Go back to Lanyuan first. There are servants here."

"Then your Highness, please rest early."

Ning Lanxue stood up and left slowly.

When she walked out of Murong Yu's courtyard, the tears on her face stopped.

Instead, a trace of resentment surfaced.

He finally drove away that bitch Shen Ruoxi.

Why do you feel that your current situation is worse than before?

What a ghost!

……

The autumn rain swept over and the weather turned cooler.

The wife of the Marquis of Wuding Mansion also asked Shen Ruoxi to come and see Qin Chengxuan's legs in her own name.

But Shen Ruoxi didn't go there in person.

Instead, Tao Ye took the prescription and gave it to Wu Dinghou Qin Chuan, asking him to find a trusted doctor to treat Qin Chengxuan.

But he stayed in the general's mansion and didn't go out much.

During this period, Shen Che, who rarely came back, happily returned to the General's Mansion every day.

Murong Heng also came diligently.

Both men seemed to be in a good mood.

Only her father, Shen Tianrong, looked increasingly melancholy.

Especially when he saw Murong Heng, the sadness between his eyebrows deepened.

More than half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Emperor Renjing sent an invitation to hold a banquet in the palace, and invited courtiers and noble ladies to come to the palace with him.

This banquet is mainly to make up for this year's Qionglin Banquet.

Because of the floods in southern Hebei this year, frugality has been promoted from top to bottom.

Qionglin Banquet was simply set up.

Now that Murong Heng has gone south, Jinan's flood control has been very smooth.

Emperor Renjing, Long Yan, was so pleased that he held this banquet.

Shen Ruoxi also received the invitation.

She got on the carriage, took Tao Ye and Leng Shuang with her, and prepared to enter the palace.

Shen Tianrong was a little worried.

"Ruoxi, if you don't want to go... you won't go."

"Dad, I'm just making peace, not escaping from prison. Is it possible that I won't see anyone for the rest of my life?"

Shen Tianrong thought about it too.

"Okay, Ruoxi, if someone bullies you, you come back and tell dad that he will stand up for you! Taoye, remember to protect the young lady, and...who is this girl?"

Shen Tianrong pointed at Leng Shuang and scratched his head.

"Speaking of which, I wanted to ask you last time, Ruoxi, why did a strange maid appear next to you?"

Shen Ruoxi:...

Dad, is your reflex arc too long?

"She is Leng Shuang, just like Tao Ye, she is a trustworthy person."

"Hello, General."

Leng Shuang saluted.

She was also a martial arts practitioner, and Shen Tianrong could tell at a glance that she had a solid foundation in kung fu, which was probably quite high.

Instantly I felt more relieved.

He nodded and got on his horse.

Several people walked towards the palace.

After arriving at their destination, the two separated.

There were two venues for the banquet.

The courtiers were in the front hall.

And the female relatives are in the harem.

On the way, Leng Shuang whispered in Shen Ruoxi's ear.

"Miss, the master said that if someone makes you unhappy, feel free to vent your anger and he will take care of it."

"Oh, I see."

As soon as Shen Ruoxi arrived at Jade Harmony Garden, she heard a burst of women talking and laughing.

The central area of ​​Jade Harmony Garden is fat, green and thin, with fluttering clothes.

Many people have come.

As soon as Shen Ruoxi appeared, the laughter on the field suddenly became smaller.

During this period, the reconciliation between Shen Ruoxi and Murong Yu was aroused.

It became a topic of conversation after dinner in Kyoto.

At this moment, the real master appeared, and everyone could not hide the strangeness in their eyes.

Some are curious, some are amazed, some are scornful, and some are watching the fun...

Shen Ruoxi walked through the crowd calmly, found her seat, and sat down.

A noble lady couldn't help but be curious and asked in a low voice.

"Miss Shen, did you know that the fourth prince recently took in a concubine?"

"know."

Shen Ruoxi looked calm.

Not long after Murong Yu was punished, he gave Ning Lanxue a status.

It was quiet, no ceremony, and no one was informed.

It is said that Ning Lanxue smashed several cups that night and cried in anger.

Of course, these are the information that Leng Shuang got by climbing on the wall of Murong Yu's residence.

The noble girl is holding a porcelain cup.

"Miss Shen knows this news, so don't you have anything to say to the Fourth Prince?"

"If I see him, I will say congratulations."

Seeing that she didn't get any gossip, the noble girl shut her mouth.

At the same time, I murmured in my heart.

Everyone in the capital knew that Shen Ruoxi was infatuated with Murong Yu.

Is this cold reaction now true letting go, or is he pretending to be strong?

"Everyone is here!"

Suddenly an arrogant voice sounded.

Everyone turned their heads.

I saw a graceful woman and two maids walking towards this side.

It is Wan Siyu, the daughter of Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance.

She was wearing luxurious Sichuan brocade, short boots sewn with gold thread on her feet, and a gold-covered set on her head, which was priceless at first sight.

The Ministry of Household Affairs is in charge of finance, and its role is self-evident.

Every time Wan Siyu appears, she always looks the most gorgeous.

But no one dared to call her extravagant.

Because she is the queen's cousin.

Wan Siyu walked towards her seat and paused when she saw Shen Ruoxi next to her.

"You're actually here too?"

Shen Ruoxi raised her eyes.

"You can come, why can't I come?"

She and Wan Siyu had not dealt with each other since childhood.

I don’t know why, but Wan Siyu has always been hostile to her since she was a child.

When they grew up, the two became even more tit-for-tat.

The fact that she liked Murong Yu was publicized by Wan Siyu, making it known to everyone. Everyone in Kyoto laughed at her for being a licker.

"I thought that after being kicked away by the fourth prince, you would be so distraught that you would seek death and survival at home. Didn't you expect that you still have the strength to come to the banquet?"

"Wan Siyu, you hang out all day long. I didn't expect the information to be so ill-informed. I took the initiative to reconcile with the fourth prince. It's too late to be happy. Why are you seeking death and survival?"

"Stop pretending, you are obviously very passionate about the fourth prince, he must not want you!"

"You're so sure. Did you lie under Murong Yu's bed and hear it?"

Hearing this, Wan Siyu became angry.

"Shen Ruoxi, listen to the vulgar words you said, they are simply despicable!"
