"It's probably because the emperor came to see me last night because of the edict." Ruan Ningxiang stood up in a panic and glanced outside. General Xiao Shen had already turned into the courtyard, "Well, no, it's too late to get out. You have to Go into the back room and hide for a while."

Like an affair, Ruan Ningxiang pushed Chu Yu into the back room, and Chu Yu stretched out his neck and said, "You..."

"Hurry up and hide yourself. Don't make a sound." Ruan Ningxiang pressed his forehead again and pushed him back.

With a bang, the door to the back room closed.

She straightened her somewhat messy clothes, and General Shen was already invited into the courtyard by the little eunuch guarding the door.

Ruan Ningxiang came out to greet him and smiled faintly, "General Shen, why are you here?"

Ruan Ningxiang had her hair tied up in a hairpin and was wearing her daughter's double-breasted skirt. It turned out that when she put on the skirt, she looked just like the girl next door from Xiaojia Biyu, delicate and lovely.

Shen Lichuan couldn't help but look at it for a moment longer.

He scratched his head, looked away, and saw the dishes and chopsticks on the dining table, "You haven't had breakfast yet?"

"I overslept, so we had lunch together at noon." Ruan Ningxiang followed his line of sight and saw two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the dining table, "You sit down and eat something together."

"This..." Shen Lichuan thought that the two of them were familiar enough. He stood up and sat over, "Then I won't be polite."

Just to dispel his doubts, Ruan Ningxiang said casually, but did not find General Shen actually sitting down.

Ruan Ningxiang subconsciously glanced at the door of the back room, and felt that there was a line of sight like a knife shooting towards her.

As a result, what she said was a bit false, "No matter how polite you are, you are already so familiar."

Ruan Ningxiang took a sip of rice porridge and turned to the topic, "Is it because of the imperial edict that you came today?"

Shen Lichuan nodded and said in a very low voice, "Yesterday, after the emperor saw you, he summoned me again. The meaning behind his words seemed to be that he had doubts about the imperial edict."

Ruan Ningxiang pondered for a moment, "What did the Sixth Prince say?"

"The Sixth Prince wants us to feel at ease." Shen Li said, "Just say that we have indeed received the prince's secret edict. As for the rest, we don't need to worry about it."

"Then it seems that the Sixth Prince already has a solution."

Shen Lichuan couldn't help but look at her a few more times,

"What's wrong?" Ruan Ningxiang saw that he kept looking at her, and it seemed that Ruan Ningxiang was not free, but also a little afraid that the people in the room would rush out at any time.

Shen Lichuan pointed to a small section of her exposed neck, "You...do you have a rash? There is a small patch of red there."

Ruan Ningxiang lowered her head and looked over. She couldn't see it, and the mirror was in the back room, but she guessed what Shen Lichuan saw.

She lifted up her collar and said, "It must have been bitten by mosquitoes at night."

"It's so cold now. Are there any mosquitoes?"

"Who knows, maybe the meat is more fragrant and attracts mosquitoes." Ruan Ningxiang glanced at the back room while serving rice porridge to General Xiao Shen.

"Oh." At this moment, the two of them were sitting together, Shen Lichuan's wheat-colored face was filled with heat, "Then I'll get you some mosquito repellent incense later."

"No, I guess in two days, if the weather gets cooler, all the mosquitoes will be gone."

"Then you keep it as a spare. This is a mosquito repellent incense specially designed for the royal palace. It is very useful. My sister prepared it for me when I usually use it."

"Sixth Princess?" Ruan Ningxiang asked.

Shen Lichuan raised his head and looked over again. He saw his sister yesterday. Her sister asked him a lot of questions and even asked about his marriage.

She asked him if he had a favorite woman, and wanted to take advantage of his return to Beijing to help him find a young lady from an aristocratic family to be his wife.

But can those pampered young ladies living in deep mansions and courtyards go to Northern Xinjiang with him and suffer that kind of suffering?

Moreover, he doesn't like such delicate women.

He refused.

His sister guessed his thoughts and deliberately brought them together.

However, he didn't know what the person in front of him thought of him.

Shen Lichuan put down his bowl and chopsticks, his palms sweating, "General Ruan, what is your impression of Northern Xinjiang?"

"Northern Xinjiang?" She never wanted to go to a place in her life. "Why do you ask?"

Shen Lichuan's heart was beating wildly. He had never been so nervous when facing thousands of troops and flying arrows. Now, facing a little woman, he could not help but feel nervous. He was looking forward to the answer, but he was afraid that it was just wishful thinking.

"No, it's nothing." Shen Lichuan didn't ask, he stood up, "Then, I'll go back first."

"I'll give it to you."

Ruan Ningxiang was focused on the person in the room. She sent the person out of the courtyard door and then came back.

When we entered the house, the food on the dining table had already been removed.

Ruan Ningxiang closed the door again, walked over, approached someone's cold face, reached out and rubbed his cheek, "What's wrong? I'm so angry that I didn't even eat."

Chu Yu tilted his head and looked at her.

The more he looked at her without saying a word, the more Ruan Ningxiang felt weak for no reason, "That man has long legs and came to the door all by himself. I didn't even bother to refuse him, and he didn't stay in the capital for a long time."

Chu Yu pulled the person onto his lap and sat down, "You haven't noticed yet, but he is attracted to you and wants to take you back to Northern Xinjiang."

"No, I came back with great difficulty. I don't want to go back again."

"I will never let you go back again." Chu Yu intertwined his fingers with hers little by little and held her hand tightly, "The emperor will not let the sixth prince become powerful. Regardless of whether this prince's secret edict is true or not, the war has been won. , the emperor will not investigate the prince’s guilt in detail.”

"Yeah." Ruan Ningxiang nodded along with his words.

However, in the original work, the sixth prince was still the emperor.

Ruan Ningxiang was uneasy, "Ziyu, what will happen if the Sixth Prince becomes the emperor?"

"How?" Chu Yu's eyes became distant and unpredictable, "I should be the first person he won't let go."

Ruan Ningxiang fell silent. She had no idea what Chu Yu had done in the two years since she was gone.

But Chu Yu has become a princeling and a confidant of the prince, so he must do a lot of things for the prince.

Could Chu Yu still be unable to escape the ending of the original work?

One wave after another happened, and Ruan Ningxiang seemed to have endless worries.

What will she do next?

Chu Yu flicked her forehead, "You're not allowed to get too close to Shen Lichuan, do you understand?"

"I understand." Ruan Ningxiang rubbed her forehead, "By the way, only Su He and Ai Cao know that you came to my place. Be careful when you leave later."

"Why are you issuing eviction orders now?" Chu Yu gently pinched her soft cheeks again.

"Don't you have anything to do during the day?" Ruan Ningxiang tilted her head and looked calm.
