Chapter 204 Cannon Fodder Wife (26)
Sui Yu held his face and kissed him with a smile, "I know."
"I read the letter you left for me when you went out a few days ago. I know."
"Husband, you will always be my favorite..."
The unfinished words were sealed and melted away bit by bit in the sucking.
......
In a blink of an eye, I had spent a full seven days in the hot spring villa.
It's okay for Di Chen to have a substitute, but after Prime Minister Fu's downfall, Lin Shuwei was promoted and took on dual duties, and Shen Yanting could not escape the burden placed on him by his boss.
However, in just these few days, letters came one after another from the Lin Mansion and the Shen Mansion in Shengjing, all of which urged him to return quickly.
Especially Xingjiu, he was almost annoyed to death by the people in the palace.
Xing Jiu, who was sitting silently on the highest eaves of the Lin Mansion, leaning on his hands and gazing at the sky, sighed for the sixty-third time today.
Iris, who was lifted up by him, didn't say a word, but her expression was extremely sad.
Li Lian: "Alas."
"Why are you sighing? Doesn't His Majesty attend court every day?"
Li Lian smiled awkwardly, "Just keep someone company, otherwise I'd look a bit stupid sitting here."
Xingjiu looked up at the sky in silence, but suddenly saw a carriage gradually stop at the side door. He lowered his head and sighed in shock, "My master is back!"
"Hey, that's my emperor~ Your Majesty~" Li Lian's face was also full of surprise.
So, when Lin Shuyi reached out to help Sui Yu down, he saw Xing Jiu running to the door like a madman and then hurriedly stopped, his eyes full of tears.
"You... owe money outside?" Lin Shuyi calmly put Sui Yu behind him.
"No, I just miss my master and my lady." Xingjiu covered his face and pretended to cry.
Sui Yu poked her head out and asked, "Where's my Iris?"
Xingjiu froze, turned his head and slowly looked at Iris who was standing on the eaves with her hands on her hips, tears suddenly rolled down his face. He was finished, he was really finished.
Di Chen ruthlessly pushed away Li Lian, who was trying to show off in front of him, and shot him a warning look.
Li Lian quickly shut up. For the sake of his daily supply of red jade elbows, he danced with the wolf and recognized the thief as the master...
The noisy half day passed without mercy.
Princess House.
Duan Yang was restless, looking anxiously towards the door. Seeing Nanny Su come in, he quickly asked, "Are you back?"
"I'm back. The apology you asked me to prepare is already prepared. What do you think? Should we go now?"
Duan Yang stood up and said, "Let's go... No... They just came back from a trip. If I rush over, won't it backfire?"
When Duan Yang thought of Di Chen's ruthless killing of the entire Fu family, he felt cold all over.
He was the powerful Prime Minister, but in the hands of Emperor Chen, he was just an ant that could be crushed to death with ease.
What about her, a princess without real power?
That day, she went to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager as usual. She was caught off guard and was tricked into revealing information, which confirmed the Empress Dowager's guess.
Although everyone in the palace knew that Di Chen had left the palace and had not returned for the entire night, no one really knew where he had gone or what he had done.
The empress dowager learned from her indirect information that Emperor Chen was indeed in love with a woman. With a little investigation, she was able to find out who it was that day.
Although these had no actual connection with her, but...she also gave an excuse to the Queen Mother.
Without even thinking, she knew how the Queen Mother would explain to Sui Yu that it was she who had informed on the secret.
It's not worth arguing about this, but if I really suffer this loss, what if Emperor Chen wants to settle the score later?
A chill ran through his heart, and Duan Yang's mind was in a mess. Then he heard Nanny Su beside him say:
"Princess, there's no need to make such a big fuss. Everyone in the court and the country knows that Lady Sui was injured because of the Queen Mother. Why not just treat it as a visit between sisters?"
"If the princess is truly afraid...why not ask Madam Yan to come along? A heart-to-heart talk between sisters is always better than speculation."
Duan Yang was certain in her heart that, yes, she had lost her composure and was so obsessed with it. "Then go quickly and write a letter to Madam Yan to explain it clearly."
As for Yan Qingyue, she was hesitant after receiving the invitation from the princess.
She knew that Yaoyao was pretending to be sick. Iris had already sent a letter explaining the whole story, but...what does this have to do with Princess Duanyang?
After thinking for a moment, he simply picked up a pen, wrote it down, and tied it to the leg of their special carrier pigeon.
The white dove disappeared into the courtyard. A jealous voice rang out from behind Yan Qingyue, "Jiaojiao, is she writing to Lady Sui again?"
Yan Qingyue turned around angrily and said, "Rong Moshen, that's enough. You're even jealous of her. We grew up together and are close friends."
Rong Moshen frowned, his slightly childish face full of depression, "Jiaojiao saw that I was jealous and didn't try to comfort me."
"Coo, hoo, hoo, go, go to the bed and coax."
The maids serving beside him blushed, lowered their heads and quickly retreated, their movements so familiar as if they had done it thousands of times.
"But the fish hasn't been soaked yet..."
"No, if I can get pregnant, I will definitely give birth to a child of a different gender than Yaoyao. Then we can arrange a child marriage. You should work harder."
"I will make my wife's wish come true."
......
The next day, Yan Qingyue, who had received Sui Yu's reply and given the princess's approval, started counting the things she was going to take with her early in the morning.
After going out, the carriage met Princess Duanyang at the street corner, only to find that compared with what Duanyang brought, what she brought was nothing.
They pulled three carts full of boxes and put them at the back of the carriage. It looked very heavy and it took the effort to unload them. It took the servants from the Lin Mansion a long time just to unload them.
"This... there's no need to bring so much!" Yan Qingyue looked shocked.
Duan Yang calmed himself down and waved his hand, "It's not much. Madam Sui has suffered so much, she needs more nourishment. I happened to have these things at home, so I thought I'd bring them over."
As she spoke, the maid who led the way had already brought them to Sui Yu's courtyard.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Sui Yu lying on her back in a rocking chair, rocking almost to sleep.
The maid who was about to report was interrupted by Duan Yang and sent away, leaving only a few of them in the yard.
Iris served the guests tea and whispered, "My wife had morning sickness last night. She was waiting for the princess and Lady Yan, but perhaps she was too tired and fell asleep immediately."
"It's okay. Let your wife have a good rest first. We can also bask in the sun." Duan Yang looked at Sui Yu's rosy face and felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, Sui Yu was not seriously injured because of her negligence, otherwise... she would feel really bad.
She took the initiative to show kindness to Sui Yu because of Di Chen, but she could see that Sui Yu was truly sincere in treating others.
Unlike those noble ladies from aristocratic families who came to her in the past because of her princess status, even if Emperor Chen tempted her with the position of empress, it seemed that she could not be moved at all.
Look, you haven’t caught up yet.
But within three breaths, Duan Yang's expression suddenly changed. When he saw the man walking hurriedly with a bag of food in his hand, his face was filled with horror.
