Accidentally Married Miss Empress - Chapter 75

When the early summer comes, the sun will get hotter and hotter. Due to successive years of floods or droughts, the grains have not been harvested. Gongyu specially summoned many officials to investigate the topography of the palace and the direction of the river. The suffering of famine.

It’s just that this is a big project that requires not only manpower and material resources, but also most importantly, money.

Gong Yu originally thought that the ministers of the court should agree with it unanimously, but he didn’t want to propose this idea, so he was perfunctory.

If the emperor wants to open the treasury, he naturally needs to negotiate with the ministers. Dailang is just waiting on the sidelines and has no intention of supporting Gongyu.

And Zhao Ting is naturally an old and stubborn party, and he will only say that this new water conservancy construction is not desirable, and it is not advisable for your Majesty to think twice.

If you only want to think twice, what do you guys need to do?

Gong Yu could only slander in her heart, but she had to keep a sullen face until the morning was over.

Gong Yu, whose face was full of black lines, lifted the curtain and stepped into the inner hall. Dai Ruyan was filling the soup, looked sideways at Gong Yu, who was not looking very well, and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“What’s wrong with that group of ministers, why are they doing it against me?” Gong Yu stopped to the side and untied the dragon robe and muttered: “I really want to open them all.”

Dai Ruyan put down the soup bowl in her hand, got up and walked in front of Gong Yu, reaching out for Gong Yu to untie the intertwined and complicated buckles: “If the water conservancy is newly repaired for a while, they will naturally be unwilling, Xiao Jiu has not thought about it. why?”

Gong Yu was stunned and said: “The imperial court has contributed money and efforts, as long as they supervise and ensure the progress of the project, why are they unhappy?”

“If you think about the area to be repaired, the court ministers are supported by the big family, but the fief of the big family is where the water conservancy is built, not to mention how much financial and material resources will be spent, they want to come like locusts. To devour the people of Limin, where would you be willing to do this?”

“Ayan means to let me forget?”

“It doesn’t mean that it’s over, but if the edict issued by the court cannot be implemented, then it is better to suppress it for the time being. When the big family is weak and has to obey the command of the court, it will not be too late to build a new water conservancy. .”

Saying that, Dai Ruyan led Gong Yu to the low table where the meals were placed. Gong Yu said frustratedly, “I really want to arrest them all and beat them up to see if they will be more honest.”

“The close ties of the aristocratic clans are most likely to affect the whole body. If Xiao Jiu really wants to be like this, I am afraid that even all the state and county prisons in the palace country will not be enough.”

The two took their seats, and Dai Ruyan put the soup in Gong Yu’s palm and said, “Don’t worry, things in the court sometimes take time to be resolved step by step, but there is no one-size-fits-all solution.”

Gong Yu drank the lotus root soup and responded, “I know, I am very peaceful in the court today.”

“This lotus is freshly picked from the Qingchi Palace. The stewed soup is fragrant and delicate, do you like it?”

“Well, it feels better than meat.”

She is usually happy all the time. As long as she turns her attention away, her frowning brows relax, and Dai Ruyan relaxes a little while looking at it.

“After a while, you can peel the lotus seeds to make lotus seed soup. Eating some in summer is also good for your body.” Dai Ruyan said softly with a wooden spoon in her hand.

Gong Yu was so angry that he forgot that he was hungry, so he could eat soup by himself.

For a while, the inside of the hall seemed to be restored to the tranquility of the past, and the gray sky outside the window gradually brightened.

After dinner, Gong Yu was busy reviewing the mountains of memorials, and Dai Ruyan sat on the side reading a book, when Chen Ming, who was outside, suddenly reported: “Your Majesty, the fifth prince drank in the restaurant last night and didn’t return. This morning, he was found dead in In the restaurant.”

“What was the cause of death?” Gong Yu asked with a frown.

“The poison poisoned by the Fifth Prince is called the Drunken Immortal.” Chen Ming responded in a low voice: “The dancer who put the poison has been arrested, and the dancer has admitted that it was the second princess Gong Ling’s instigation.”

What’s wrong with this,

Gong Ling has no contact with the Fifth Emperor, and how could Gong Ling’s cunning and cunning scheming leave him behind?

Dai Ruyan on the side said, “Then send someone to arrest Gong Ling and put him in jail for review.”

“Okay.” Gong Yu responded.

This case came too suddenly, without even the slightest warning, as if even the ministers in the court were very unpredictable.

The next day, when Chen Ming listed the charges against the palace spirit in the court hall, Gong Yu still hadn’t reacted, and some ministers who had followed the three emperors earlier pleaded for the palace spirit.

Even when reviewing the memorials, Gong Yu was able to sort out a stack of pleas.

Dai Ruyan was adding some spices to the incense burner, and she seemed to be in a good mood. When she turned her head to see Gong Yu with a serious expression, she asked in confusion, “Why is Xiao Jiu so expressionless?”

“I was wondering why Gong Ling wanted to kill the Fifth Emperor.”

“Isn’t this statement already submitted for testimony?”

Gong Yu closed the book in her hand, looked at Dai Ruyan, and said hesitantly, “Don’t you think Ayan thinks this is going too smoothly?”

“Did it go well?” Dai Ruyan asked suddenly.

“The fifth emperor was killed, and the murderer was immediately caught and told Gong Ling, and then Gong Ling was arrested and convicted. Now the more ministers in the court are interceding for her, the more she can’t be cleared of suspicion.”

At the beginning, Gong Liang said that the person arranged by Dai Ruyan in the court was Chen Ming, the minister of Dali Temple. If Gong Ling was framed because of the scheme, would Dai Ruyan know about it long ago?

Gong Yu stared at Dai Ruyan’s eyes, Dai Ruyan let Gong Yu look at it, and tightly tied the spice tape in her hand and whispered, “Xiao Jiu means that Gong Ling is wronged?”

“Not necessarily, I just don’t understand that Brother Wu Huang has never caused trouble, how could he be a killer under the palace spirit?”

Over the years, Gong Yu felt that these five emperors were typical of the grass, and whoever was stronger would go with whom.

In the past, along with Gong Liang, I followed His Highness Gong Quan together, and later on, they complimented everywhere, eating, drinking, and having fun all the time.

Dai Ruyan put the spice bag into the box and responded, “Can Xiaojiu still remember the dance girl thing?”

Dancer?

Gong Yu did not recover for a while, looked at Dai Ruyan and asked, “Which dancer?”

“Xiao Jiu really doesn’t remember that passionate dancer who teased you in every possible way at the banquet?”

The words were clearly full of jealousy. Gong Yu was stunned for a while, and couldn’t help laughing. She sat close to Dai Ruyan and said, “It turns out that Ayan didn’t just play with the little rabbit at that time.”

Dai Ruyan turned her head slightly and looked at the person who smiled brightly in front of her, as if her deep thoughts were just an illusion.

“You, you specifically asked me about this at the beginning, why don’t you remember?”

“It’s been so many years. I still remember the woman next to me, otherwise Ayan would have been fussing about it again.”

Before he finished speaking, Gong Yu shouted in pain, “Ayan hurts.”

The hand that was holding her cheek never let go, Dai Ruyan raised the corner of her mouth with a smile and said, “Does it hurt?”

“Let you laugh at me again?”

“Ayan, I was wrong.” Gong Yu tilted her head and reached out to hold Dai Ruyan’s hand, kissed the frosty profile, and said flatteringly, “I’m so happy, that’s why I talk nonsense. “

Fortunately, Dai Ruyan finally let go, Gong Yu was busy rubbing her little face, and sat down to the side to keep a safe distance at all times.

After so many years, Gong Yu felt that Dai Ruyan cared so much about the dancer for the first time.

The two calmed down for a while, and Dai Ruyan poured tea and said to herself, “Xiao Jiu thought who sent the dancer to lure you at that time?”

“Seduce me?”

Gong Yu did not take in the dancer because of precautions, but then the dancer was killed.

It was too late to investigate things in detail, and Dai Ruyan didn’t seem to want Gong Yu to investigate further, so Gong Yu did not send anyone to investigate the dancer’s background.

“Does Ayan know what was hidden behind the dancer back then?”

Dai Ruyan took a sip of tea and saw that the person opposite was full of anticipation waiting for the answer to be revealed, but only said, “That’s the person sent by the Fifth Highness.”

“But at that time, I was not outstanding in the court, and the Fifth Emperor also wanted to come and have no intention of participating in the struggle for power. Why did you send a dancer to lure me?”

“Xiao Jiu, why do you think the Fifth Highness frequently clambers with His Highness, who is in power in the DPRK?”

Gong Yu replied hesitantly, “Ayan means that the five emperors are secretly forming a party for personal gain through a banquet of wine and meat?”

“I think Xiao Jiu doesn’t know that bullying good and fearing evil is the nature of the fifth prince. If the powerless fifth prince wants to stand on his feet in the courtroom where dragons and snakes are mixed, he has to cling to the powerful.”

Dai Ruyan stopped talking, hiding the dirty things that Gong Ling secretly instructed His Royal Highness to do.

Gong Ling’s provocation again and again, the matter of the little palace maid has already touched Dai Ruyan’s bottom line.

When the Third Highness had not yet had an accident, Gong Ling had been advising the Third Highness behind the scenes, not to mention asking the Fifth Highness to do a lot of bribes.

Even if Dai Ruyan didn’t do anything, with Gong Ling’s heart, these five royal highnesses would definitely not be able to stay.

With the death of Gong Liang, Dai Ruyan felt that no one other than Gong Ling dared to provoke the Queen so boldly and openly.

Therefore, Dai Ruyan asked Chen Ming to fabricate evidence of the crime. In fact, as long as Gong Ling stepped into the prison, there was no possibility of turning over again.

“Ayan?” Gong Yu called softly while looking at Dai Ruyan, who was holding tea in her hand with a serious expression and a very busy expression.

“Um?”

Dai Ruyan returned to her senses, looked at the person in front of her and responded, “What’s wrong?”

Gong Yu stretched out her fingers and lightly rubbed Dai Ruyan’s brows and said, “What did Ayan think so seriously?”

“I didn’t think about anything, what is Xiaojiu going to do with Gong Ling?”

“If this matter is true, it must be dealt with according to the laws of the palace.”

The voices in the hall rang softly, but it was already the midsummer of the bright sun outside the window.

When the imperial decree to ask the beheaded in the autumn was promulgated, the ministers in the court also settled down. Everyone knew that the emperor would never be so decisive when he came to the court, and only the queen could make such a choice.

Once the Queen handles this matter in person, the keen ministers will naturally know that there is no room for manoeuvre in this matter, after all, no one really wants to leave their heads behind.

Late one day and night, the iron gate of the heavily guarded Dali Temple slowly opened, and the guards knelt down and bowed their heads silently to welcome the approaching carriage.

Layers of chains were opened, and a clear echo echoed in this large prison. Chen Ming saluted and called: “Congratulations to the Empress.”

Dai Ruyan got off the carriage, and the group entered the end of a long corridor until the prison door was opened.

Gong Ling was sitting at the low table, and the corner of his mouth raised lightly: “You are finally here.”

“Are you waiting for this palace?”

“I’m really not used to your use of the name Ben Gong.”

“The evidence of your murder of the prince is conclusive, and it has been scheduled to be executed in the late autumn. Why don’t you plan to escape?”

Gong Ling suddenly sneered: “Escape?”

“This palace is full of your minions. As long as I get out of this door, I’m afraid I’ll be in a different place.”

Dai Ruyan stood by and inspected the decorations here, and said indifferently, “I heard that the third highness committed suicide in this prison.”

“You are talking nonsense!” Gong Ling’s emotions suddenly collapsed and he said: “Brother, he is very arrogant, how could he commit suicide!”

The guards on the side stood by, very vigilant.

The light from the narrow window stayed aside, Dai Ruyan looked away and responded, “There’s nothing impossible about this matter, didn’t the second princess say this to this palace before?”

Gong Ling looked at Dai Ruyan with red eyes: “You killed him!”

Dai Ruyan stared at Gong Ling, who had always been calm and calm. She was so embarrassed that she was a little disappointed. She said with thin lips, “He shouldn’t use her to threaten this palace.”

At that time, the Third Highness, who was in power in the court and opposition, wanted Dai Ruyan to marry him, even at the cost of coercion.

In addition, she had gotten closer to her during that time, and she always took the initiative to come to the courtyard. The Third Highness was always vicious, so when Dai Ruyan mentioned her, her words were often full of threats.

I remember that day when I entered the cruise ship to go to the appointment, the third highness approached in a frivolous manner: “Dai girl is so ignorant of praise, is it possible that she really likes Xiao Jiu?”

“However, I have to remind the young lady that the person that my Highness wants has never been missed. If my Highness can’t get it, the people on the other side would rather die than get it.”

Dai Ruyan Youji had murderous intent in the eyes of the Third Highness at that time, and could not help but want to kill him with his own hands.

But something happened later. Dai Ruyan never thought that she would appear, let alone that she would block the arrow. When the blood fell on her crescent white robe, Dai Ruyan’s eyes hurt.

At that time, it seemed that what was next to him was not important for taking it with him, and Dai Ruyan was terrified to protect the unconscious person in his arms, the warm blood flowing in the palm of his hand, just like the blood of his sister.

It’s all because of him! Dai Ruyan watched her with hatred and thought, if it wasn’t for the fact that the Third Highness would not have missed her who came to her door yesterday, then she would not have to get on this boat.

In order not to reveal her identity, Dai Ruyan guarded her all night, the wound was too deep, and if the arrow was pierced, she might have died on the spot.

But if she didn’t pull it out, she would die sooner or later. Dai Ruyan decided to ask the female doctor to pull out the arrow as soon as possible. The gushing blood soaked Dai Ruyan’s clothes, but she was not angry at all.

As if she was dead, Dai Ruyan stretched out her hand to probe her breath in fear, but fortunately, it was still there.

Dai Ruyan guarded her for three days after she was in a coma.

What is the possibility of not waking up?

Dai Ruyan was hesitant and couldn’t react. She was guarding her by herself like this, and she couldn’t help but wonder if she would die?

Is it really going to die?

In the dead of night, Dai Ruyan did not let anyone light the candlesticks in the hall, but just kept watch.

Day by day, when she didn’t say a word, Dai Ruyan suddenly wondered what would happen if she died?

Then he must kill the third highness himself to avenge her. It seems that only thinking about Dai Ruyan can calm down a little.

Fortunately, she finally woke up, and answered with the same smile as before, as if her face was pale, and everyone else was fine.

But that doesn’t mean nothing has happened.

Dai Ruyan looked back at Gong Ling, who was about to collapse in front of her, and said with a sneer, “It’s him!”

Gong Ling wanted to come forward, but was stopped by the guards in time. She didn’t have the demeanor of a noble princess in the past, so she straightened her skirt and said, “As of now, you have no choice but to die.”

“Okay, when I go to the execution ground, I will tell you all about your scandals!”

“What do you want to say?”

“Dai Ruyan!” Gong Ling said in a piercing voice, and asked in a hoarse voice, “She is also a woman, why can she do it, but I can’t!”

Dai Ruyan stared at Gong Ling and said, “You coerced me over and over again, and secretly used power to force me into submission. How is this different from your younger brother?”

Gong Ling looked at Dai Ruyan grimly and said, “Do you think you are different from me?”

“Sooner or later Gong Yu will see through you lunatic, and you will also be abandoned by her!”

“She’s not Zhen Gongyu.”

“What did you say!”

Dai Ruyan drew closer and said, “Zhen Gongyu is dead.”

Gong Ling stared at Dai Ruyan in horror, with tears streaming from the corners of his eyes, he laughed loudly: “You are crazy!”

“Is Ben Gong crazy?” Dai Ruyan smiled and said, “But as long as she loves Ben Gong, that’s enough.”

“Then are you going to kill me now?” Gong Ling shouted.

“You will die, but not now.”

“Dai Ruyan, don’t you have the slightest affection for me all these years?”

Dai Ruyan looked around the prison and asked, “Do you have the slightest affection for this palace?”

“Of course there is.”

“Then why did you let that little palace maid enter the palace?”

Gong Ling’s eyes dodged, Dai Ruyan sneered: “The little palace maid has the same appearance and personality as Xiao Jiu, you can send other women to Ben Gong, is this still affection?”

“You should leave this kind of affection to those concubines raised in your mansion.”

“What’s so good about her!” Gong Ling hissed without the weak disguise he had before.

Dai Ruyan frowned and replied, “You don’t deserve to mention her.”

“If that dancer hadn’t been silenced in time, I should have known that you were behind the scenes back then.”

Gong Ling smiled in despair and said, “You treat us like fools and let us tease you!”

“But the corpse of the princess of the Mulberry Kingdom has been destroyed by me, and the longevity medicine you are thinking of cannot be made.”

“Come on, clap your mouth!”.

Until the guard stopped, Gong Ling looked at Dai Ruyan fearlessly and said, “Are you angry?”

“Sangyu Kingdom has more than one princess.” Dai Ruyan stepped out of the prison and looked at Gong Ling inside and said, “This will be your last chance to speak.”

Gong Ling was still scared after all, her eyes were full of fearful struggles, and the guard on the other side had already poured the medicine into her mouth.

Everything seemed to be quiet again.

Dai Ruyan blinked lightly and said, “No one is allowed to visit her before Qiu Hou asked Zhan.”

“Yes, the Empress.” Chen Ming replied in a low voice.

“Master Chen has worked hard.”

“Many thanks to the Empress for your appreciation.”

In order to win the piece of Chen Ming, Dai Ruyan spent a lot of energy.

Until finally found out the reason why Chen Ming has never been married for many years, it turned out to be a man who was privately raised in the house.

Man, as long as you have weaknesses, you are no longer invulnerable.

Dai Ruyan stretched out her hand to straighten her skirts, she couldn’t help thinking that she would have to change her clothes when she returned to the palace later. The smell in this prison was very pungent.

When the layers of iron doors were closed, only the muffled sound reverberated in the prison door, and no one else could hear anything.

During the summer solstice, when the lotus flowers are in full bloom, in the past years, there were many banquets in the palace. Now, although there are no people in the palace, Dai Ruyan has some unusual occasions to hold banquets in the palace.

Gong Yu, who finally finished reviewing the memorial, wanted to find someone, and the palace people reported which palace the Empress was holding a banquet.

But sometimes Dai Ruyan didn’t say a word, and even if Gong Yu wanted to go, it would be inappropriate to go rashly.

After all, there are many female dependents. If Gong Yu goes there and accidentally glances at someone, she may have a bright face again.

There is nothing to do but sleep.

But in summer, although I am sleepy, I cannot sleep for a long time, otherwise I will feel groggy and uncomfortable all day long.

Gong Yu set up a pavilion next to the Linshui Pavilion, not far from the palace, and the wind chimes on that side were blown by the wind, making it sound annoying and sleepy.

Looking sideways at the calm pool water, Gong Yu sat up cross-legged and suddenly wanted to fish.

So Gong Yu made fishing gear first, and nothing left or right was to kill time, until the simple fishing gear was thrown into the water by Gong Yu.

For a while, Gong Yu seemed to be a sculpture, except for the occasional blink of his eyes, nothing next to him moved.

Naihe Gongyu lost his patience and lay on the side, stretched out his arms to hug the fat rabbit and muttered, “Why haven’t you come back!”

Every time I set up a banquet, I invite those ladies and gentlemen. If it wasn’t for Gong Yu’s firm will, I would have thought that Dai Ruyan was the daughter of the family that she liked.

What a puzzling thing.

Until sunset, when footsteps suddenly approached in the pavilion, Gong Yu listened carefully to the frequency of this walking, and it was undoubtedly a generation of Ruyan.

Gong Yu’s eyes were still looking at the pool, and she was very sullen in her heart.

How can this be the one who hangs his family every day!

“Xiao Jiu…” Dai Ruyan sat lightly on the side, reached out and picked up the mulberry from the plate on the side, handed it to Gong Yuzui and asked, “Aren’t you going to eat it?”

“Don’t eat.”

Dai Ruyan looked at the man with a tense face, put the mulberry in his hand and said, “What are you doing?”

“fishing.”

“Why do you suddenly think of fishing?”

Gong Yu pursed her lips tightly and did not respond, and looked at the calm water.

When the sun sets in the west, the splendid sunset glow is reflected on the water, and even the courtyard of the pavilion is full of golden afterglow.

Seeing that the person beside him seemed really angry, Dai Ruyan looked sideways for a while and couldn’t see her joking with him like in the past, so he had to get closer.

Dai Ruyan leaned over, the whole person fell into Gong Yu’s arms, and Gong Yu subconsciously tightened her arms.

“Why is Xiaojiu ignoring me?” Dai Ruyan asked close.

This kind of personal attack, for Gong Yu, the defense power is directly 0.

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan, lowered her head and kissed the thin lips lightly, “I heard that most people with thin lips are unkind. This old saying is true.”

“what?”

“nothing.”

Dai Ruyan held Gong Yu’s earlobe lightly with her fingertips, her dark eyes reflected Gong Yu’s fair face and said softly, “Xiao Jiu, why don’t you look at me?”

“See what you do?”

“Didn’t Xiao Jiu look at me the most in the past?”

Gong Yu paused to look at Dai Ruyanman and said seriously: “I waited for you for most of the afternoon today, but you are accompanying those ladies.”

“Is Xiao Jiu jealous?” Dai Ruyan leaned closer, rubbed her nose lightly against Gong Yu’s cheek, her movements were extremely ambiguous.

“I’m not jealous, I’m angry.” Gong Yu leaned closer and bit the next generation Ruyan’s cheek, full of complaining: “In the past two months, Ayan has set up a banquet all day, and I have no chance to talk to Ayan. Yan is close.”

Dai Ruyan lightly pecked the corner of Xia Gongyu’s sternly pursed mouth, her eyes full of smiles, and said, “But you say that every day, I can guess it.”

This person is always so stupid and cute, even if he gets angry with the same words every time, it seems that there is no other way to get angry.

Gong Yu reached out to cover Dai Ruyan’s eyes and said, “I told you that I’m very fierce when I’m fierce.”

“Well, I know.” Dai Ruyan took Gong Yu’s hand that was blocking her eyes and gently moved it away and asked, “But Xiao Jiu will never kill me, right?”

“Humph!”

So angry!

The pavilion was quiet for a while, Dai Ruyan turned to listen to the steady heartbeat beside her ear, and her eyes fell on the person who was sulking.

“I want to give Xiao Jiu a few concubines.”

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan blankly, completely unable to guess whether Dai Ruyan was calm and said such words?

“Ayan, what nonsense are you talking about!”

Dai Ruyan stared at the person in front of her who seemed to have not recovered at all, and caressed her cold cheek with her palm and said softly: “If the harem has no concubines, it will still be talked about, and the emperor still has to have a few concubines. Otherwise, the people will be laughing at Xiao Jiu behind his back.”

“I do not want!”

Her expression suddenly became serious, and when she pursed her lips tightly, the lip socket became more obvious, but it became more and more cute.

The corner of Dai Ruyan’s mouth smiled deeper, and she got closer to the distance between the two of them, her lips were close to the corner of her mouth, and she hugged her affectionately and said, “I’ve been busy all day, so I really left Xiao Jiu in the cold, and recruited some concubines to accompany Xiao Jiu. Wouldn’t it be better to talk?”

“Then Ayan, don’t be busy with that, okay?”

“But as a queen, there are always many things to deal with in the harem. How can you accompany Xiao Jiu all day?”

She blinked, looking at this side in disbelief, her eyes were very aggrieved, but she pursed her lips tightly as if she was thinking about something.

It took a long time for her to say: “Then Ayan will be busy, and the time will pass quickly when I am alone.”

These words are really pitiful.

Dai Ruyan lightly stroked her brow with her fingertips, and the corners of her mouth raised, “But you just said you were in a bad mood, wouldn’t it be boring to be alone?”

“Then I don’t want anyone else either.”

After she finished speaking, she tightened her arms, circled Dai Ruyan, and rubbed her cheek against Dai Ruyan’s side face and said, “You are not allowed to find someone else for me, or I will really be angry.”

What a fool, Dai Ruyan kissed her sideways and replied, “Well, I see.”

She probably lost her anger, and felt better for a while. She reached out and took Dai Ruyan’s hand out of the pavilion.

Dusk was fleeting, but she was always so simple, Dai Ruyan tightened the arms of the two of them, and couldn’t help thinking about Na Fei?

How could it be possible to give her a concubine?

She was the only one who foolishly believed her own words, as if she thought she was secretly trying drugs on behalf of Ruyan without knowing it.

But the reason why Dai Ruyan can take medicine obediently is because she feels distressed that she tries the medicine first by herself every time. She has always been most afraid of suffering, and when she frowns and drinks the soup, Dai Ruyan is always distressed.

Although she said that she was ill, Dai Ruyan couldn’t tell whether she was ill or crazy as Gong Ling said.

It’s just that Dai Ruyan stubbornly believes in her, no matter what she says, as long as she stays by her side, everything is acceptable.

The two entered the inner hall, but it was still dark inside, Gong Yu wanted to reach out to get the fire book, but found that it was a little unclear.

Dai Ruyan, who was on the side, took Gong Yu and walked straight to the candlestick. For Dai Ruyan, the darkness was no different from daytime.

When the candlestick was slightly lit, Gong Yu went to light the lamp beside the hall, and Dai Ruyan followed quietly.

“Why didn’t Ayan let the palace servants do this?”

“I’m just used to it.”

Dai Ruyan touched Gong Yu’s drooping sleeves with her fingertips, and looked sideways at the bright palace, as if the light would make the palace empty.

But the darkness makes Dai Ruyan feel safer, so the lights in this hall are usually handled by Dai Ruyan.

When Gong Yu blew out the fire book in his hand, he said, “I’m a little hungry.”

“Then let the palace people set up meals.”

“Um.”

As usual, when the two of them were having a meal, Gong Yu was the quietest, and drank the soup in a small mouthful of Ruyan’s place.

The hall was very quiet for a while, and when Dai Ruyan was drinking the soup, she remembered the unobstructed mention of the offspring by the husband at the banquet.

She also mentioned this before, but Dai Ruyan didn’t want to, so she refused.

But now that I think about it carefully, this palace is really too deserted, and she will always find it boring in the future.

If there is a child who can relieve the boredom, it is not impossible for Dai Ruyan to consider it.

“Xiao Jiu… do you like children?”

Unexpectedly, as soon as she said this, her choked face turned red, she hurriedly picked up the tea and drank it, her bright eyes looking at this side, as if she asked in a puzzled way, “Why did Ayan suddenly mention the child? “

“I just mentioned the child when I was chatting with the ladies today, so I wanted to ask Xiao Jiu’s opinion.”

“In the future, it will still be the other children of the adoptive clan.”

She abnormally refused.

Dai Ruyan was also a little unable to guess what she was thinking. Seeing her slowly eating chicken, her eyes sometimes looked in this direction, as if she still had nothing to say.

But when the meal was over, she didn’t wait for her to say anything, she just took an early bath and came over and pulled Dai Ruyan to rest on the couch.

Everything seems to be fine.

When the banquet was held, a group of ladies were all dressed up, and the accessories on their heads were even more dazzling.

Dai Ruyan smiled and said nothing, the stage was very lively.

I never thought that she came here generously. In the hot summer, she was not someone who could sit for a long time in the past, but today she is very abnormal.

“Why are you here today?” Dai Ruyan asked, looking sideways at her, who was full of seriousness.

She stretched out her hand to pick up the fruits and melons beside her and responded, “Ayan forbids me to come?”

“Of course not. Most of them are officials’ families, and the show is very boring. Why doesn’t Xiaojiu go to the pavilion to rest?”

“There’s no way Ayan won’t call me, so I can only come to see Ayan.”

Dai Ruyan was stunned for a moment, and gently wiped the fine sweat from her cheek with her fingertips and said softly, “I didn’t ask you to come because I knew you didn’t like this banquet, and you said it like I didn’t let you come. “

She ate the melons and fruits and nodded in response: “It’s that A-Yan doesn’t accompany me, so I can only come to accompany A-Yan.”

“You’re angry?”

“Not angry.”

The words were answered in a straight-forward manner, obviously completely different from her tone in the past.

Dai Ruyan held her hand helplessly and said, “Don’t get angry with me, I’m here to handle serious business for you.”

“I know.”

“you know?”

“Well, I know.”

“what do you know?”

Her eyes turned slightly, and she looked at Dai Ruyan slyly: “Ayan is repairing the group of ministers who do not allow new water conservancy repairs for me, right?”

repair?

For some of her words, Dai Ruyan could only understand by guessing, she nodded slightly and said, “Yes, they are uncomfortable for Xiao Jiu in the courtroom, so naturally they shouldn’t be uncomfortable in the backyard. .”

She smiled brightly, as if she had lost her seriousness, and Dai Ruyan was relieved to see this.

The idea of ​​​​newing water conservancy is indeed a bit bold, especially when Dai Ruyan first heard the idea of ​​Gong Yu, she felt a little whimsical.

It can be seen that every time I see her developing the topography of the palace country, she spends the night thinking about how to dig out a canal to irrigate the farmland in the prefectures and counties that have suffered from severe drought in the palace country.

Dai Ruyan had to sort out the difficulties of the court for her. Money and money are not important, the important thing is to repair the mess.

Otherwise, no matter how much money is spread out, the layers of deductions will not know how much can actually be used for the newly repaired water conservancy.

Besides, this new water conservancy project will not be completed in a year or two. Dai Ruyan has seen the plan she gave, and at least the project will take decades. Therefore, it must be strictly controlled at the beginning, so that those ministers do not dare to tamper with it. Hands and feet, otherwise decades of engineering can easily become an iron chain dragging the palace to the cliff.

It was very hot in the summer, and before she sat on the side for a while, sweat could not stop flowing from her cheeks.

Although Dai Ruyan asked people to re-select light and breathable fabrics as the material for sewing the dragon robe, she was still very afraid of heat, and she was prone to sweating even if she didn’t move.

Seeing that she stretched out her hand to scratch her neck, Dai Ruyan knew that the heat prickly heat might be coming back again.

“Don’t grab it.” Dai Ruyan held her hand to stop her.

She looked pitifully sideways and said in a low voice, “Ayan, it’s very itchy.”

Dai Ruyan pursed her lips and looked at the ladies below who were looking at the stage attentively, and stretched out her hands to gently rub her.

“Ayan’s hands are so cold.” She frowned, obviously satisfied.

“Why are you sweating so much?”

“hot.”

“Why don’t you go back to the palace?” Dai Ruyan wiped her sweat with a handkerchief in her hand.

But she shook her head and said, “I want to accompany Ayan. Ayan alone will be very boring.”

The corners of Dai Ruyan’s mouth were raised. Seeing that she was righteously speaking ironically, she scratched her nose lightly with her fingertips and said, “You are bored when you are bored, why are you talking about me?”

“Don’t Ayan want me to accompany you?”

“It’s hot outside, you’re uncomfortable staying here, you might as well stay in the inner hall.”

She pretended not to hear, and stared at the stage, really stubborn.

Dai Ruyan had no choice but to pull her to get up together, leaving the ladies on the other side to watch the play alone.

After entering the hall, the palace people knelt down and saluted, she held Dai Ruyan’s hand instead, her face full of smiles.

“Quickly change your robes.” Dai Ruyan said while pulling Gong Yu into the screen.

She raised her eyebrows and smiled: “It’s hot, it’s better to wash it.”

Dai Ruyan packed up her new robe and said, “Okay, go wash it, I’ll give you medicine later.”

“Aren’t Ayan with me?” Her eyes lit up, obviously not thinking the same thing as she said.

“I’m not hot, you can go.”

Dai Ruyan’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she reached out and nudged her to go inside.

However, if she is interested, Dai Ruyan will not listen to how she acts both hard and soft.

She stopped in front of her with the robe in both hands, smiled bright white teeth and said, “Anyway, it’s just the two of us, why don’t we have one?”

“Don’t think about it in this bright day.” Dai Ruyan responded with her head turned sideways.

“It’s obviously A Yan who is thinking wildly. I just let A Yan see how much heat prickly heat has grown, but he is a very serious person.”

When she said this, Dai Ruyan clearly saw the brilliance in her eyes that was full of reverie, which is really not very credible.

Just when Dai Ruyan was hesitating, she had already pulled Dai Ruyan to go inside.

“Little Nine…”

“Um.”

“Your dragon robe doesn’t seem to be the one I made new.” Dai Ruyan was keenly aware of the difference in touch when she stroked the drooping sleeve robe with her fingertips.

She smiled hesitantly, and opened the inner curtain with dodging eyes: “Really?”

“Maybe it was accidentally replaced this morning.”

Dai Ruyan listened to her clumsy lie and replied, “But I personally put on the dragon robe for you this morning, so it can’t go wrong.”

When she was in the middle of the line, she put down the robe in her hand, pretended not to hear Dai Ruyan’s words, and unbuttoned it herself.

“You changed your old clothes on purpose, right?” Dai Ruyan caught a glimpse of the petals in the pool, obviously this was a specially prepared scene.

She stopped unbuttoning her hand, apparently not knowing what to do
