Chapter 124 Meager Strength

After listening to Chen Ruzhi's words, Bai Wanrou lowered her head and thought about how to deal with it.

There was a smile in Chen Ruzhi's eyes. He looked at Bai Wanrou quietly, guessing the other person's little thoughts, and shook his head indifferently.

Anyway, in this palace, the one he trusts the most is Wanrou.

After he leaves, all affairs of the palace must be handed over to Wanrou.

Of course, besides trust, there is another meaning.

He wants everyone to see that Wanrou is his princess, and he is willing to put all his trust in her.

Let those people consider whether they are willing before bullying Wanrou!

Just when Bai Wanrou was at a loss what to do, the housekeeper opened the door and walked in.

"Your Majesty..." The housekeeper bowed and saluted Chen Ruzhi. He was originally going to report something.

But when Bai Wanrou saw him, her eyes flashed.

"Butler!" She pointed at the butler and shouted suddenly.

The housekeeper, who was old enough, was immediately startled by her sudden sound.

He looked at Bai Wanrou in shock, with a confused look on his face.

Bai Wanrou smiled at him, and then she looked at Chen Ruzhi and said in a dignified manner: "The housekeeper has always been in charge of all the affairs of the palace, so he must be more familiar with these things than me."

"Your Majesty, you should leave everything to the housekeeper." She said to Chen Ruzhi.

As soon as these words came out, the housekeeper immediately took a breath of cold air.

He looked at Bai Wanrou in shock and fear, with a look of shock on his wrinkled face: "Princess, don't talk nonsense. How dare I take over the affairs of the palace on your behalf?"

Bai Wanrou patted his shoulder with relief: "Butler, don't be humble. You are the most familiar with these things, so don't shirk it."

The housekeeper glanced at Chen Ruzhi quickly and shook his head vigorously: "I don't dare, I don't dare..."

Seeing that Bai Wanrou wanted to persuade her again, Chen Ruzhi's face was already quite embarrassed.

How can the housekeeper be such a shameless person if he has managed to get to this point?

Therefore, he forgot about what he originally wanted to report. After bending towards Chen Ruzhi, he quickly left the scene.

Bai Wanrou looked at his back and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

I didn't expect that the butler, with his old arms and legs, could run quite fast.

Seeing this, Chen Ruzhi chuckled: "Wanrou, the housekeeper is old after all. If he is left to take care of so many things in the palace, wouldn't it be difficult for him?"

"Then the prince has asked me to take care of it, isn't it difficult for me?" Bai Wanrou said bluntly.

Hearing this, Chen Ruzhi chuckled lightly, and then his face suddenly darkened again.

He remembered what the emperor had said in the summons today, and said in a deep tone: "Today the emperor asked me and Mr. Lu Shiyi to lead troops together. Don't Wanrou think about the reason behind this?"

Hearing this, Bai Wanrou's expression was slightly startled.

She thought quickly in her mind.

After a long time, he raised his head again, and his eyes suddenly became clearer.

Seeing this, Chen Ruzhi knew that she had figured out the reasons.

A smile appeared on his lips: "Wanrou must have thought of it. Your Majesty's move to let me and Mr. Lu go together is to use the two of us to control each other."

After saying that, his expression darkened: "I am afraid that the emperor will ambush me secretly, and there are not many people I can trust right now, so I want Wanrou to take over the palace."

Hearing this, Bai Wanrou's eyes flickered slightly.

Could it be that the reason why he did this was because he believed in himself?

For some reason, she felt slightly moved in her heart.

Although she didn't want to take over, in case the emperor really ambushed her secretly, she had no choice but to nod her head: "Since the prince insists on doing this, Wanrou can't shirk anymore."

Seeing her nodding, Chen Ruzhi knew that it was done.

A smile gradually appeared in his cold eyes. He looked at Bai Wanrou and curled his lips slightly.

He seems to be

I'm sure Bai Wanrou will agree in the end.

Bai Wanrou couldn't help but frown slightly when she saw the smile on his face.

He smiled like a fox.

She couldn't help but think to herself: Could it be that she had been plotted just now?

Why else would he look so happy?

She always felt something was wrong, but couldn't find any evidence, so she had to give up.

At the same time, outside the palace gate.

Leng Xuanyue hurried to the house.

When he heard the news this morning, he was slightly shocked and came over to find Chen Ruzhi early in the morning.

As he walked, he was still thinking in his mind.

Why did the emperor let the prince and Lu Shiyi lead the troops together?

He always felt that something was wrong here, but he had no evidence.

Suddenly, he didn't know what he thought of, his steps stopped, his pupils shrank, and his expression was shocked.

Is it possible that the emperor did this to restrain the prince and Lu Shiyi?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this reason was not impossible.

At this time, the housekeeper saw Leng Xuanyue standing there blankly, feeling puzzled, so he came over and said, "Mr. Leng? Are you here to see our prince?"

Hearing this, Leng Xuanyue suddenly came back to his senses. He nodded to the housekeeper and said in a deep tone, "Take me to the prince. I have something urgent to discuss with him."

Hearing this, the housekeeper nodded immediately.

He did not dare to neglect, and quickly walked forward with Leng Xuanyue: "The prince is right there, talking to the princess, I will take you there..."

While talking, the two of them arrived at the place.

Bai Wanrou was slightly shocked when she saw Leng Xuanyue's figure.

Did the news spread so quickly? Even Leng Xuanyue knew about it.

When Chen Ruzhi saw Leng Xuanyue running over in a hurry, he guessed what he wanted to say when he came over.

He waved to Leng Xuanyue: "Don't act so surprised. Be careful if outsiders notice it and you will start to make random suspicions."

Hearing this, Leng Xuanyue suppressed the shock in his heart. He first saluted Bai Wanrou, and then said, "Why do you think the emperor wants you to go with Lu Shiyi?"

Chen Ruzhi and Bai Wanrou had already guessed it.

Therefore, he glanced at Leng Xuanyue impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense, as long as you know it in your heart."

Seeing this, Leng Xuanyue naturally knew that he must have guessed the reason.

He glanced at Bai Wanrou and asked with some confusion: "The prince and princess looked solemn. What were they talking about just now?"

Chen Ruzhi originally wanted to scold him for meddling in other people's business, but as soon as his eyes fell on Leng Xuanyue, he had an idea in his mind.

The corners of his lips curled up, and he looked at Bai Wanrou with a smile: "Wanrou, I know that it will be extremely hard for you to manage the affairs of the palace in the future. I leave Leng Xuanyue and Lin Feng to you. You can do whatever you want.

Sent."

Hearing this, Leng Xuanyue's eyes suddenly widened.

He stared at Chen Ruzhi in disbelief.

Why did he sell himself out inexplicably when he came here?

You can send him as much as you want, do you think he and Lin Feng are just friends?

Of course Chen Ruzhi didn't know what he was thinking, he only thought about it because of Bai Wanrou.

Bai Wanrou didn't shirk it, but she knew that Leng Xuanyue did things neatly, but Lin Feng was not very smart.

So she said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, but Mr. Leng will stay, so Lin Feng will stay."

When Chen Ruzhi heard what she said, he knew that she must dislike Lin Feng's clumsiness.

He chuckled: "Then I, the King, will keep Lin Yi here."

Hearing this, Bai Wanrou nodded.

On the side, Leng Xuanyue listened to the conversation between the two of them and felt sad for Lin Feng in her heart.

Even the prince and princess despise him for being stupid! How did he get away with it?

After everything is settled, Chen Ruzhi and Lu Shiyi will lead their troops and leave.

In the room, Bai Wanrou looked out the window from time to time with a solemn expression.

Seeing this, Lu Zhu immediately guessed what she was thinking.

She immediately smiled and said: "Miss, let's go see the prince off too?"

Hearing this, Bai Wanrou nodded, and the two of them walked out the door.

At this time, Bai Qingting hurriedly walked over. When he saw Bai Wanrou, there was a hint of worry in his eyes: "Wanrou, brother, go with you to see off the prince."

Hearing this, Bai Wanrou nodded.

On the official road, after Chen Ruzhi finished ordering the troops, he sat on a tall horse. He was wearing armor and had an iron sword on his waist. He looked majestic.

At this time, he was looking in the direction of the palace, his eyes covered with a layer of expectation.

When Bai Wanrou appeared, a smile appeared on his lips.

Bai Wanrou was caught off guard, and her eyes met Chen Ruzhi's in mid-air.

She forced herself to ignore the trace of reluctance in her heart and turned her head away.

Seeing this, Chen Ruzhi's eyes darkened. Then he said: "Let's go!"

All the soldiers walked forward together.

After returning, Bai Qingting pulled Bai Wanrou into the room and closed the door tightly. He looked at Bai Wanrou with worried eyes: "Wanrou, have you made peace with the prince?"

Hearing this, Bai Wanrou shook her head truthfully: "The prince is going to war, so we haven't had time to talk about it yet."

She said, hesitated for a while, and then continued: "When Prince Qi left, he had given me full authority to handle all matters in the palace."

Hearing her words, Bai Qingting looked shocked, and then he sighed.

"The prince must have trusted Wanrou in his heart when he did this. It seems that the prince still has Wanrou in his heart..."

When Bai Wanrou heard this, her pupils shrank slightly, but she did not speak.

So what?

All her love had been slowly drained away by Chen Ruzhi, and she could no longer be moved by this incident.

When the prince comes back, she will definitely propose a divorce.

Presumably by then, he will agree without even thinking.

Bai Qingting thought for a long time. He looked at Bai Wanrou with a worried expression on his face.

Finally, he sighed and decided to persuade her, otherwise it would be too late when Wanrou regretted the divorce.

With this in mind, he said to Bai Wanrou: "Wanrou, the prince is not here during this period, so you should take this opportunity to think about your feelings for the prince."

"Don't wait for you to propose a divorce, and later realize that you still have some affection for the prince, and then regret it in your heart. When the time comes, my brother doesn't want to see you feel uncomfortable because of it."

Hearing Bai Qingting's words, Bai Wanrou knew that he only thought about herself.

She looked at Bai Qingting, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes: "Thank you for your trouble, brother. Wanrou will carefully consider what brother said today."

Hearing this, Bai Qingting sighed and shook his head. He raised his hand and rubbed Bai Wanrou's hair: "It's good that you know."
