When the prince's life was in danger, Miss Yun Er's expression didn't change at all.
And she refused to save him, no matter what.
But when it came to the young prince, Miss Mu Er was willing to save him!
This…
Zhan Tianye's expression suddenly turned cold, "What did you say?"
"Ah, your subordinate…"
Qiu Lu recounted how he had begged Yun Shu, and Yun Shu had refused to agree.
Zhan Tianye's expression grew even colder.
"Your Highness, could it be that Miss Yun Er knew how to do it but couldn't win your heart, so she turned her attention to the young prince? Otherwise, it doesn't make sense," Qiu Lu said, utterly bewildered.
He had no idea why Miss Yun Er would do such a thing.
"She has more schemes than I thought," Zhan Tianye narrowed his cold eyes, his voice deep.
She wanted to use Zhan Xiao Li to force him to accept her?
Such deep calculations!
"However, your subordinate watched with his own eyes as Miss Yun Er didn't want to save Your Highness. It didn't seem like an act," Qiu Lu thought about it more and more, finding it unfathomable.
What was this Miss Yun Er really thinking?
Under the night sky, inside the carriage, Zhan Tianye's expression was equally inscrutable.
After a while.
Qiu Lu hesitated and asked, "Should we bring the young prince to see Miss Yun Er tomorrow night?"
"Let her see him only once. I don't believe that after this one meeting, she can make Zhan Xiao Li give up on looking for his mother. Yun Shu overestimates herself!" Zhan Tianye let out a cold laugh.
Qiu Lu still felt something was not quite right.
But he couldn't articulate the feeling.
Moreover, looking at His Highness, he was convinced that Miss Yun Er was using the young prince.
Therefore, Qiu Lu fell silent.
At this time, the sky in the east was faintly showing signs of lightening.
In about another hour, it would be completely dawn.
…
At breakfast.
Yun Changfeng specifically came to have breakfast with Yun Shu.
Father and daughter chatted and ate.
Yun Changfeng suddenly remembered the child he had met yesterday.
He said to Yun Shu, "Your father met a four or five-year-old child yesterday. The child was clever and spirited, and very brave. He was surrounded by several older children but showed no fear. Instead, he made all those children cry. Moreover, your father noticed that the child's features bore some resemblance to yours. The more I looked, the more I liked him."
"He bears some resemblance to me?" Yun Shu suddenly raised her eyes.
Could it be Yun Xiao Jing?
Could it be such a coincidence?
"Indeed. It's just a pity that the child has an irresponsible father, making him very wary of people," Yun Changfeng said with a smile.
Yun Shu's eyes flickered. An irresponsible father?
There couldn't be so many coincidences in the world. "What else did he say to you?"
"Because he was wary, he didn't say much to your father. Your father bought him two candied hawthorns. He wasn't greedy and said he only needed one. He's a sensible and obedient child! If you were married, your father might have even thought he was your son," Yun Changfeng said with a laugh.
There was even a hint of regret in his tone.
It was rare for him to meet a child he felt such a connection with.
Yun Shu lowered her eyes and looked at the little bun in front of her, thinking, Yun Xiao Jing, Yun Xiao Jing, your courage is growing!
When she saw Yun Changfeng say he thought it was her son, she suddenly felt guilty.
She blinked and asked with a smile, "If I really had such a lovely son, would Father be happy to be a grandfather?"
Yun Changfeng was stunned. Without thinking, he laughed, "If I really had such a cute and smart grandson, your father would wake up laughing in his dreams. However, it's impossible. You're not married yet, so your father can only imagine."
"When you get married and become a mother, your father will be content to stay at the General's mansion, playing with his grandson, and can even teach him to ride and shoot."
Yun Changfeng began to fantasize about Yun Shu's future marriage and his role as a grandfather.
Yun Shu smiled and sighed inwardly, You've already been a grandfather to three children four years ago!
It seemed that if she said it out loud, it would scare Yun Changfeng into not sleeping for days and nights.
"Your father will help you choose, to see which young men in the capital are worthy of marriage. Shu'er, you deserve the best man in this world!" After taking a sip of porridge, Yun Changfeng began to ponder.
He considered some of the talented young men in the capital.
But no matter how he thought about it, he felt that no one was worthy of Shu'er.
Yun Shu smiled, "I'm not getting married."
She already had sons; what was the point of getting married?
Yun Changfeng laughed heartily, "You! What woman doesn't get married? Your father knows very well that you just want to spend more time with me."
He suddenly felt that Shu'er was the best daughter in the world!
Yun Shu didn't explain further. He would understand when he met Yun Xiao Jing and Zhan Xiao Li later.
However, she needed to leave the manor for a while now.
To carefully prepare a gift.
She was meeting Zhan Xiao Li tonight!
It would be best to find Yun Xiao Jing during the day today and let the two brothers meet tonight.
Yun Shu ate while deep in thought.
Yun Changfeng thought Yun Shu was thinking about Prince Ye.
Although Yun Shu said she no longer liked Prince Ye in the palace, the incident five years ago had been widely publicized, and everyone in the capital knew Shu'er's feelings.
It was possible that now that Shu'er had sobered up and become smarter, she was saying she didn't like Prince Ye out of pride.
At the palace banquet that day, he had clearly seen Shu'er looking at Prince Ye with deep affection.
Alas!
It was a pity that Prince Ye was not interested.
Shu'er could only hide her sorrow alone.
When he found someone even more outstanding than Prince Ye, Shu'er would naturally forget Prince Ye.
Yun Changfeng secretly made up his mind.
He would definitely find someone who could cherish Shu'er.
…
After breakfast, Yun Shu left the General's mansion.
She first went to some places that sold delicious food, and then looked at things children liked to play with.
After buying everything, she went to see Ruan Xi.
Ruan Xi was surrounded by women in his mansion.
"Young Master, these are grapes I peeled myself."
"Young Master, I truly miss you day and night. Please don't forget me."
"Don't worry, this lord is not heartless. You are all precious to this lord, how could I forget you?"
Two slender women, like willows, clung to Ruan Xi. One offered grapes, the other bestowed kisses.
The scene was as decadent as it could be.
Any ordinary woman would have been too shy to stay, but Yun Shu showed no reaction.
She drank some tea in the pavilion.
It had to be said that Ruan Xi was the man who knew how to enjoy life the most.
Whether it was the fine wine and tea, or the beautiful women, they were all things many men dreamed of.
She lowered her gaze and glanced at Ruan Xi, who was being led to the pavilion by the beauties.
She didn't speak.
Ruan Xi sensed something was amiss.
He looked up.
To his astonishment, he saw Yun Shu.
His body stiffened.
"You, why are you here?" Ruan Xi was greatly startled.
Thinking of how he had just been flirting with two concubines, and that Yun Shu had seen all of it, his face suddenly flushed.
