If I were born again, I would marry a strong but short-lived husband.

"Why can't the Queen control herself today?" Ruan Xinglin sighed softly.

From now on, Ruan Danyang would be as gentle and respectful as possible when dealing with Emperor Fu and would not disobey him.

"I used to restrain myself for my son, and now I am not restraining myself for my son."

Ruan Danyang turned and looked at his younger brother.

"He Zhiyuan is still determined to send people to kill Lu Yuan. If he fails, he will spread his identity in Yong Dynasty, hoping to destroy his trust in the Emperor of Yong Dynasty."

"We don't know how the Yong Dynasty emperor will treat him."

"Since he is in danger anyway, why not let him come back? I can still protect him."

Ruan Xinglin: "Lu Yuan has lived in Yong Dynasty for many years after all. He can't just leave whenever he wants. He values ​​his wife very much."

Ruan Danyang said, "Did He Zhiyuan mean to say that He Jingyao attacked Lu Yuan just because of his wife?"

"What a bastard! He tried his best to destroy Lu Yuan. Since he couldn't kill him, he wanted to destroy the reputation of Lu Yuan's wife."

"Keep an eye on it, don't let He Zhiyuan get a chance to spread the news..."

"Shen Sui'an."

Ruan Danyang nodded, "Don't say anything that's unfavorable to Shen Sui'an."

"it is good."

"The Queen..."

Suddenly, the frightened voice of the palace maid beside the prince was heard outside.

"What happened?" Ruan Danyang frowned.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince...His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is missing." The palace maid said with a pale face.

"What does 'missing' mean?" Ruan Danyang asked.

The maid knelt on the ground, "This is the letter left by the prince."

Ruan Xinglin hurried forward, took it and handed it to Ruan Danyang.

"..." With only three short lines of words, Ruan Danyang's expression suddenly changed.

She handed the letter to Ruan Xinglin.

Ruan Xinglin took a look and his face turned ugly. He immediately asked the maid in a stern voice: "Have you read the letter left by the prince?"

"I dare not!" said the maid hurriedly.

"No one is allowed to tell anyone that the prince is not in the Eastern Palace." Ruan Xinglin ordered in a cold voice.

"Empress, I will go to Yongchao immediately and bring the prince back." Ruan Xinglin said.

Ruan Danyang shook his head. "You will immediately arouse suspicion as soon as you leave the city. Let Zhaoyun go. I taught her martial arts and she can protect the prince."

When she brings the prince back, she will beat him up personally.

He actually dared to secretly go to Yong Dynasty to find Lu Yuan.

"Tell the public that the prince is ill and has been sent to Yunqi Mountain to recuperate." Ruan Danyang gave the order promptly.

Ruan Xinglin responded in a deep voice, "I will immediately send a letter to Le Yang, asking her to be more careful in Shangjing City, and if she finds the prince, send him back immediately."

"This brat!" Ruan Danyang clenched his fists.

"He wants to see Lu Yuan." Ruan Xinglin sighed.

Ruan Danyang snorted, "Can his body withstand this bumpy ride? It's making him more and more willful."

……

……

Feng Yuanjia came to Shen Sui'an mysteriously, "I heard that Yongning Mansion recently executed several people. Ziying, who was by her side that day, disappeared. I heard that she betrayed Yongning, and she ran away out of guilt."

He didn't escape at all. He must have been captured by Concubine Yao.

"Have you been to Princess Yongning's mansion?" Shen Suian asked in a low voice.

"I've been there this morning. I'll be coming to see you soon." Feng Yuanjia said.

She sighed and shook her head, "I heard that Aunt Deng is also going to retire and return home. Yongning has just returned to the capital not long ago, and someone has placed a spy next to her. It's really scary."

"When I get back, I'll have to check every detail of the palace."

Shen Suian guessed that it must be Concubine Yao who had someone reveal the secret of Princess Yongning, otherwise she would not have discovered it so quickly.

"Times have been turbulent lately. If there's nothing important, try to stay at home." Shen Sui'an said in a low voice.

Feng Yuanjia nodded, "I know, I know."

After returning, she checked the Duke of Zhenguo from top to bottom.

However, they did catch two or three servants who were lazy and slacking off.

Feng Yuanjia also wrote a letter to the princess to tell her about this matter. Although the princess did not know the ins and outs of the matter, she keenly sensed something unusual.

The letter came as fast as a horse, advising Feng Yuanjia not to enter the palace again in the recent period, no matter what excuse he made.

Of course, this is a story.

The disappearance of several servants in Princess Yongning's mansion did not cause any disturbance in Shangjing City.

However, as the Bai family was once a first-class family, its recent frequent sales of land and real estate have attracted the attention of many people.

Jiang even came to Shen Suian to discuss the matter.

"How about using the money to buy out the Bai family's assets? Their price is 30% lower than the market price." Jiang was very tempted.

After all, those were all fertile fields, and the shops were all located in the most prosperous and bustling area of ​​Shangjing City.

"Sui Sui, the Duke's Mansion and the Bai family are relatives after all. Do you have any inside information? Is the Bai family short of money recently?"

Shen Sui'an: "I've never heard that the Bai family is short of money, but there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Mother should be more cautious. The Bai family will not sell off their property at a low price for no reason."

The Bai family is such a shrewd and selfish family, why would they sell their land at a low price at this time?

Most likely, the news has already leaked out in the palace.

Jiang nodded, "Okay, I'll wait and see."

The mother and daughter talked for a while, and then Jiang was about to leave.

"Mother, please have lunch before going back." Shen Sui'an said, "I'll go ask Third Aunt to come over."

Jiang: "I haven't seen your brother for a long time. I miss him very much. He coughed a few times yesterday. I am worried."

"Have you seen a doctor?" Shen Sui'an asked.

"Doctor Zhou said that such a young child should not be given medicine easily, so he stewed some pear soup." Jiang said.

Shen Suian did not keep Jiang any longer and sent her out of the yard.

At the Chuihua Gate, I happened to meet Lu Yan and Bai Yufei who were also going out.

Lu Yan perfunctorily saluted Shen Sui'an, "Sister-in-law."

Seeing that she had no intention of introducing Bai Yufei, Shen Sui'an naturally treated her as transparent.

She nodded indifferently.

Bai Yufei looked at Shen Sui'an critically.

The name of the eldest daughter of the Shen family was not unfamiliar. Her father had hired many famous teachers to teach her music, chess, calligraphy, painting and etiquette. The name she heard the most was Shen Suian.

Those gentlemen all praised Shen Sui'an.

She had asked Lu Yan about her and thought she was a noble lady with ordinary looks and at most some talent.

I didn't expect Shen Sui'an to be so handsome.

Her skin is as white as jade, her eyebrows and eyes are as picturesque as a painting. It is rare to have such a pure and beautiful temperament in the same person.

She suddenly remembered that Lu Yuan ignored her yesterday. Did he think she was not as good as Shen Sui'an?

Lu Yan took Bai Yufei and walked in front of them.

"Mother, be careful on your journey. I will visit grandmother and you tomorrow."

Jiang patted her hands and said, "Who is that little girl from? She is so uneducated. She doesn't even greet you and keeps staring at you."

"My cousin from the Bai family is staying at the Duke's Mansion as a guest." Shen Sui'an curled his lips.

"No wonder you think of your mother-in-law when you see her. Be careful with her. She looks restless." Jiang said.

Shen Sui'an smiled and nodded, "Okay."
