C294 Ruthless to Me
Yu Longtang was busy trying to win the hearts of the people in Eastern Palace. Now, he needed to consolidate his power. As long as he didn't take the throne, everything was still unknown.
The Emperor would also send someone to bring some memorials for him to review. The return of the people sent to King Chu's Mansion was within his expectation. Yu Longtang only sighed a few times and didn't ask any more questions. He also didn't send anyone to King Chu's Mansion.
Recently, King Yi Yi had made a move on many of his minor officials and used a few helpers. Yu Longtang was also busy fighting back.
For a moment, the two of them did not care about the movements of King Chu's Mansion.
Yun Xi made up her mind that this time she would definitely let Mu Ruqing have a small birth. Mu Ruqing should also know about the red bean cake from a few days ago.
This was also good. Today she would be more cautious. If she did the opposite, she would definitely take the bait.
The plan was almost done. She twisted her waist and went to the study.
Yu Longchen wanted to find her, but Yun Xi came to the study.
"Your Royal Highness, did you sleep well last night?" Yun Xi pulled Yu Longchen's arm as soon as she came up, "This was made by my small kitchen. I don't know if it fits Your Royal Highness's taste."
"What you brought, I naturally like to eat." Yu Longchen ate without saying a word. He looked at Yun Xi looking at him. She actually wanted to kiss him. When the chopsticks were about to be put down, an image flashed in his mind, and all his movements stopped.
It was Mu Ruqing's smile.
"What's wrong? Is it not delicious?" Yun Xi was puzzled by Yu Longchen's sudden pause.
Thinking about what happened yesterday, Yu Longchen got angry. He gently held Yun Xi's chin and kissed her.
Yun Xi was stunned for a while. Huatine covered her mouth and opened her eyes wide. She did not dare to speak. This was also the most intimate action that Yu Longchen did to Yun Xi other than hugging her after being infected by the Gu for so long.
"King... King..." Yun Xi's mouth moved again and again as if she could not believe that it was real. But Yu Longchen's eyelashes that were like curtains were right in front of her eyes.
"What is it?" Yu Longchen saw that she was flattered and smiled, "Can't we kiss?"
"No." Yun Xi blushed and lowered her head. Her voice became softer and softer, "Older sister's body is weak. I want to ask for a Peace Talisman on behalf of older sister to ensure the safety of the mother and son."
"She treated you like that. It is rare that you still think of her." In the end, Yu Longchen felt that it was not worth it on Yun Xi's behalf.
Yun Xi smiled and said, "I only think of elder sister's good and not her bad."
"Forget it, forget it. I'll do as you say." Yu Longchen held Yun Xi's hand and every expression was doting.
"Then let's go now." Yun Xi stood up and pulled Yu Longchen out.
Mu Ruqing was drinking tea in the room and was feeling bored when Lingyue came to tell her about Yun Xi and Yu Longchen's movements.
"Follow them." Although Mu Ruqing did not look like much, she was really unhappy in her heart. Sometimes, she really wanted to give Yu Longchen two slaps to see if he was awake or not.
Lingyue wanted to say something but when she saw Mu Ruqing's expression, she swallowed her words.
Mu Ruqing held her head. Now, the only thing that could make her happy was the sweet memories of the two of them. Of course, there was also the child in her womb. Every day, she could feel that he was growing up.
It was only at dusk when Yun Xi and Yu Longchen's carriage returned.
Yun Xi was brought into the house by Yu Longchen, and then she invited two or three doctors in a row.
How could Mu Ruqing not care about something that happened? She brought some tonics and went to Yun Xi's room.
After entering the room, a few doctors took turns to take Yun Xi's pulse. Yu Longchen stood at the side with an anxious expression.
Mu Ruqing also did not know why she still came here since she would be sad.
She did not think too much and sat with her back facing the two of them.
The few doctors discussed the prescription together before leaving the Imperial Residence. Mu Ruqing was slightly further away and only went over to see what the situation was when she saw the doctor leave.
"What happened to Sister Yun?" It was rare for Mu Ruqing to speak gently to Yun Xi.
The skirt on Yun Xi's left knee was torn and blood was printed on it.
Yu Longchen did not give Mu Ruqing a good look but because of Yun Xi, he did not say anything about her.
"I'm fine. It's just a simple abrasion." Yun Xi said as she half-sat up. Just a slight movement of her leg was enough to cause severe pain.
Yu Longchen quickly went down to help her up. On his face, there were two big words, "The doctor said that his bones have been injured. How could it be a simple abrasion? !"
"Your Royal Highness, I don't feel pain." Yun Xi smiled bashfully and took out a triangular amulet from her bosom. She wrinkled her face and handed it to Mu Ruqing with both hands, "This is the mansion that I requested for Elder Sister to protect. Please bless the mother and son."
Mu Ruqing just looked at it and did not move. Yun Xi's hands were sore when she lifted it.
Yu Longchen looked coldly at Mu Ruqing and held back his anger, "Xi'er fell her leg to help you beg for this protective talisman. You still don't appreciate it? "
Mu Ruqing then came to a realization. She took the protective talisman and her eyebrows bent. " Oh, so it was for me. Thank you, sister. I also brought some tonics. Little sister will just eat it. "
" Thank you, sister. " Yun Xi saw her take it and her eyes turned bright.
"Between sisters, what is there to thank?" Mu Ruqing passed the amulet to Lingyue, "Put it in a top quality purse. I want to carry it with me."
Seeing Mu Ruqing's reaction, Yu Longchen's expression eased up a little.
"Since little sister is injured, you should rest well. The matters in the residence have not been settled yet. I will go and get some." Mu Ruqing slightly moved her body, turned around and revealed a cold and gloomy face.
When she walked to the door, she heard the intimate conversation between the two. The pace of her walking could not help but increase a little.
Lingyue held onto the protective talisman and really wanted to lose it.
Before they reached the courtyard, Mu Ruqing let little servant girl go and invite a doctor.
The things that Yun Xi gave naturally had to be checked once. Thinking about it, in some aspects, he really was not as good as her, for example, pretending to be weak...
The doctor checked once and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the protective talisman before leaving the Imperial Residence.
"Princess, do you want to bring this with you?" Lingyue looked at the amulet on the table.
"No. The amulet looked like it was trembling. Go and get the one Yuan Zhen gave me. As for the amulet, find an opportunity to 'send' it back to her. "
"Yes." Lingyue could not wait any longer. Mu Ruqing should also make a move.
Both sides stared at each other but only Huatine could use money to bribe the useless servant girl.
Mu Ruqing clearly knew what Yun Xi was doing. After staring for a long time, she kept to herself and relaxed a little.
It was late at night, but Yu Longchen still went to the study. It seemed that the two of them had reached a consensus. Needless to say, neither of them slept on the same bed.
Although Yu Longchen confirmed that the one he loved was Yun Xi, there might be a hurdle in his heart when he thought about how he wanted to have sex with her. He tried many times but was unable to get over it.
And Yun Xi was because the kiss mark on her body had yet to disappear. Naturally, he could not share a room with her.
This was also peaceful. What Yun Xi wanted to do now was to make Mu Ruqing disappear from this world and very naturally disappear.
