"Yun'er... Yun'er..."

The sky was turning pale.

Su Yun was awakened from her sweet dream by a gentle voice.

She opened her eyes hazily, looked at the man in front of her, and called out softly, "Husband."

"I am leaving."

It has been a long time since he woke himself up before going out.

Su Yun suddenly came to her senses, "Are you coming back?"

"I will be back, but I have to wait for a long time. My father is getting weaker and weaker, and I have to go and watch over him." When he said watch over him, he probably meant occupying the Qinzheng Hall and the Imperial Palace.

"How about I pretend to be a little eunuch and go see my father?"

"No, he wouldn't even see me, let alone you."

"He is just trying to save face."

The man gently rubbed the top of her head, "Perhaps it is the last dignity as an emperor."

"How can I have dignity when I am controlled by those people?" She paused and said, "I have already found out that there is a kind of bright flower in the Linyue area. The whole plant is poisonous. After grinding it into powder, it is exciting to eat at first, but it will become addictive after repeated use. There is still room for maneuver if it is intervened in time, but for those who have fallen into it like my father, there is no hope."

"Then what shall we do?"

"I had to keep taking it, and eventually my organs failed and I died."

He leaned over and kissed her forehead, "Just stay home and rest assured. If anything unexpected happens, Yu Qi and Yu Shiyi will take you away."

"No, I won't leave. I'll only stay with you."

The man smiled, very satisfied, "Okay."

He dressed neatly and walked out of the main house. He specifically called Yu Qi over and said, "If the situation is not going well, take the Crown Princess and evacuate immediately, even if you have to use force."

"Yes."

Only then did Xiao Lusheng leave with peace of mind.

In fact, he was also wary of Xiao Zhiyue turning against him. After all, he had to guard against anything that could threaten him or Yun'er's life.

Su Yun got up less than a quarter of an hour after Xiao Lusheng left.

Qingning yawned, "Crown Princess, you got up too early today. In the past, I couldn't get up."

Su Yun didn't say anything.

In these troubled times, who can still sleep?

For breakfast, Su Yun had someone deliver the breakfast directly to Li Luo Yuan. Seeing Rong Xunleng’s pale face yesterday, she couldn’t bear it any longer.

Having breakfast.

Yu Qi reported, "The storytellers in the wine shops, tea houses, and taverns in the capital have compiled the materials given by the Crown Princess into wonderful stories. Xiao Yu is a despicable beast who has received retribution."

Su Yun took a sip of the soup and said, "Got it."

The sky in the capital city is gray in the twelfth lunar month, and no one knows when spring will come.

When Yu Qi was about to leave, Su Yun said, "Keep watching. Maybe the Pingxi Palace has other tricks."

"Yes."

After breakfast, they started to sleep or read medical books as usual.

The winter wind was making the window bang. Qingning went to close the window and saw Jingwen standing by the window, waving at her. It was obvious that he had something to say.

She paused and ignored him.

Although Su Yun was reading a book, she also noticed Qingning's expression suddenly changed. Thinking that Qingning had been in a bad mood towards Jingwen these days, she thought that she might have seen Jingwen just now.

The master and servant looked at each other silently, which did not escape Rong Xun's eyes.

He lowered his head to read, feeling very guilty.

Of course, judging from Qingning and Su Yun's reactions, it seems that under the influence of drugs, he grabbed Qingning and called her Yun'er. Qingning did not tell Su Yun or Xiao Lusheng about this.

Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

A day passed like this.

On the second day, in the teahouse, the news spreading throughout the capital was how Xiao Lusheng slandered loyal officials, such as the family of the former Jinzhou prefect.

With all the exaggerations, Xiao Lusheng looked like a tyrant.

Just as Xiao Lusheng was described in the book, he was tyrannical by nature and had none of the virtues and demeanor of a crown prince.

Su Yun was holding chess pieces and playing chess with Rong Xun.

Yu Qi was standing aside. The news he had just reported was very unfavorable to the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince's Mansion.

Of course, those who have sufficient military force are not afraid of these.

However, the orthodox way is to be appointed by heaven and live long and prosper forever, which can also avoid many unnecessary troubles.

"Don't worry, the prince's move into the Qinzheng Palace must have been arranged in advance. You should pay attention. We in the Prince's Mansion must get first-hand information."

Yu Qi clasped his fists and said, "Master Rong is absolutely right."

Wait until he leaves.

Rong Xun said, "People can carry a boat, but they can also overturn it. The Pingxi Palace really does everything it can. It's a pity that since you and the prince got married, the prince hasn't done anything out of the ordinary."

Su Yun said angrily, "Even before, he was just trying to find out the truth. It wasn't my husband who killed the family of the former Jinzhou governor. Someone was framing him."

"You and I know the truth, but the people don't."

"Then let them know. Everyone has their own judgment on what is true and what is false. At least they are not all one-sided in thinking that the prince is immoral."

"Don't worry."

Rong Xun comforted her.

It was at this moment that Su Yun realized that she had just lost her temper. She threw the chess piece into the chess box and said, "I'm sorry. I was too excited just now."

"It's nothing. You are still alive like this. It's better than being sulky and sad."

Venting it out is also a good way to deal with it.

"Brother Rong, why do you always look so calm? Aren't you in a hurry for anything?" She thought for a moment, "Since I met you, I have never seen you so anxious that you lose control."

Rong Xun smiled and said, "This is the personality that is most suitable for the position of the Imperial Observatory."

Su Yun's lips moved for a long time before she said, "Is that so?"

"Well, that's right."

He looked at the girl.

In fact, whenever he was anxious and moved, it was probably because of her.

But she didn't belong to him, so he restrained himself.

"Only if you have a calm temperament and are calm about everything, you can calculate the star path clearly and objectively."

He spoke calmly.

Su Yun nodded thoughtfully, and Rong Xun continued, "In fact, to put it bluntly, people like us are cold-hearted and have no interest in anything. Outsiders think that we are obsessed with imperial power or even wealth, but in fact it's the opposite."

Speaking of this, Su Yun remembered that Xiao Lusheng once told her that the directors of the Imperial Observatory never married because they were afraid that after they got married, they would be threatened or even tempted to betray the Cangyun Kingdom, or even because of family matters, which would affect their normal performance.

So it isn’t?

Su Yun asked him about Xiao Lusheng's analysis, "Isn't it because of this?"

Rong Xun said: "No, the Imperial Observatory is very secluded, like a secluded place in the secluded world. Maybe you can go and have a look if you have a chance."

"Those who like quietness will find it a treasure land, while those who like noise will find it a boundless loneliness."

Su Yun couldn't explain what she liked.

All she could think of was that she liked Xiao Lusheng, and she would like him wherever he was.
