Chapter 163: Intentionally snub
Chapter 163 Deliberately snubbing
At first, he was thinking about using some kind of punishment to force the servant girl Shan Shan to tell the truth, but Ruan Youqing's light words made Shan Shan not tell himself.
"Miss! This servant is wrong! I shouldn't...shouldn't have listened to His Royal Highness' instructions just because of things outside of me...Slaves...Slaves think that just taking a personal item of yours won't hurt you...Moreover, this servant thinks...the prince must be right You only asked this slave to do this kind of thing...so...that's why you agreed... slave... slave is also thinking of you! How honorable is the crown prince...he can take a fancy to you...but yours..."
Huanhu pleaded guilty in tears, and at the end, Xu also felt that what he said was inappropriate, so he stopped in time, but the coldness in Ruan Youqing's heart did not fade away.
Won't... hurt her? Still thinking about her?
If it wasn't for...if it wasn't because her close-fitting mahogany comb fell into Li Yi's hands, how could she...forget about Gu Chang'an, and fall with Li Yi all the way!
Especially...she clearly remembers...
This maid named Shan Huan later became Li Yi's concubine, and even later entered the palace and became a concubine!
A maid suddenly flew up a branch and turned into a phoenix...
The root cause is that she pulled herself to pave the way for her because of her own selfish desires!
If she said she did it unintentionally, who would believe it!
The current admission is just that I feel that I have revealed my truth!
Ruan Youqing took a deep breath, and after calming down, she didn't say anything to Shan Shan, but turned to Kong Qing and said:
"Release the news that the Ruan Mansion caught a maid who stole things a few days ago. After she was caught, she not only did not repent, but even spoke against me. I was so angry that I fell ill in bed."
Kong Qing immediately leaned over to answer.
But Shan Shan looked at Ruan Youqing in disbelief, and when she saw the other party turned around to go out, Shan Shan stuttered and said, "You...you...you are such a person!"
Ruan Youqing turned around, but this time she had no expression: "If you are smart and want to live, just stay honest, and I can take care of your food and drink. If you have any thoughts that you shouldn't have... I don't mind letting you Know how I treat people with evil intentions."
Without waiting for the other party to answer, Ruan Youqing walked out directly.
After closing the door, Kong Qing followed closely behind Ruan Youqing: "Miss, do you want...?"
"Temporarily lock her up, but she must be strictly guarded. If Li Yi doesn't get a reply from her, he will take the initiative to investigate."
「Won’t that let him know that you have…」
Ruan Youqing slightly raised the corners of her lips and said, "What I want is to let him know. Everything...preparations should be almost done. He's almost there...that time."
…
Only one day later, a guest came to Ruan's house.
It wasn’t just Gu Changan who came here, Xiao Deyin also came to visit with him.
At this time, in the front hall of Ruan Mansion, only the voices of Ruan Youqing and Xiao Deyin talking and laughing could be heard.
Ruan Chong was busy with important matters, so he didn't greet the guests. What's more, the two people who came here are considered juniors, and there is no saying that being rude is not rude.
Mu Fei just came out to say hello to Gu Changan and Xiao Deyin and left.
As for Ruan Youning, he didn't know where he went.
Gu Changan sat there drinking tea alone, although his expression was not fluctuating as before, but his heart was full of ups and downs.
Why…
Since he came in, his little fox hasn't said a word to him? !
Hearing the two men discussing what kind of jewelry is popular in the capital for the first time in their ears, Gu Changan moved his lips, and coughed a few times awkwardly:
"I heard that there is a new master in Yunjian Pavilion, who is best at those small and exquisite things. You can go there for a stroll if you have time."
Ruan Youqing and Xiao Deyin exchanged glances, Xiao Deyin squinted and smiled back at him: "Master Gu, do you actually have research on women's things?"
Gu Changan's expression cracked slightly, and he said in an unnatural tone: "It's just... I heard."
"But you heard from your good sister?" Xiao Deyin smiled, and looked at Gu Changan with a sharp light in his eyes.
After all, she is the eldest lady of the Xiao family, so she naturally has her own news channel.
Master Shoufu chatted happily with a woman on the street, ignoring the matter of his fiancée beside him. Ruan Youqing didn't mention it, she had already heard about it.
When she came in with Gu Changan today, Ruan Youqing saw that her expression was obviously different from usual.
A little...overly enthusiastic.
However, Xiao Deyin didn't tell the truth, she was happy to cooperate with Ruan Youqing to snub Gu Changan.
After all, her family Youqing is so good, if Gu Changan is still messing around outside...
It's really reckless!
However, as soon as Xiao Deyin finished speaking, Gu Changan frowned slightly: "Good sister? But... Zhener?"
「Oh So her name is Zhener」
"She is not a good sister, she often gives me headaches." Gu Changan continued solemnly.
Originally, what Ruan Youqing said didn't have any deep meaning, but it made her even more upset when she heard it.
"Deyin, Mr. Gu has a lot of things going on every day, so let's not bother him." Ruan Youqing finally couldn't help but speak at this time. It's just... still didn't look at Gu Changan.
When Gu Changan looked dazed, Xiao Deyin stood up and pulled Ruan Youqing up by the way: "Your Majesty Gu, you can do whatever you need to do. Youqing and I are just going to go for a walk in the street, so I'm sorry. "
As he spoke, he dragged Ruan Youqing out without waiting for Gu Changan's reaction.
Leaving Gu Changan alone in the front hall of the Ruan Mansion, frowning in deep thought.
His little fox...is he mad at him?
But... he shouldn't have done anything, right?
Except... I had a conversation with Chang Zhen yesterday...
"Could it be that you are jealous?" Gu Changan said to himself.
The maids serving in the hall lowered their heads and did not hear what was going on outside the window, not daring to talk about the rights and wrongs of the masters.
At this time, Ruan Youqing, who was taken out of the house by Xiao Deyin, looked gloomy. After the two of them walked through a street like a walk, Ruan Youqing said in a low voice: "Leaving him there alone...wouldn't it be inappropriate?"
Xiao Deyin glanced at her as if he hated iron and steel, "You have to know that a man can't be used to it. If you are uncomfortable, make him uncomfortable too!"
"But..." Ruan Youqing was so indecisive for the first time.
"No, but! Let's go! Go shopping!" Xiao Deyin took Ruan Youqing's arm, and excitedly led Ruan Youqing to the busiest street.
For some unknown reason, the two walked to the door of Yunjian Pavilion after strolling around.
"Well... Now that we're here... why don't we go in and take a look?" Ruan Youqing looked up at the plaque of Yunjian Pavilion, and couldn't help but whispered.
Seeing that she has been out of her mind, Xiao Deyin sighed, and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, up to you! I want to see how skilled the master Gu Changan said is!"
Ruan Youqing saw that she was so filled with righteous indignation, she couldn't help being a little puzzled and said: "I remember... you must have liked Mr. Gu before... why today..."
「You don’t think I’m deliberately driving you apart, do you?」
"No, no, I know you're not...but you just feel..."
"Ruan Youqing, you have to know that an excellent woman is more attractive than an excellent man! Besides, you are the daughter of General Mu! I am not looking towards you!"
Looking at Xiao Deyin whose eyes light up when he mentions his own mother, Ruan Youqing can hardly recall how indifferent this guy was to her before.
If Xiao Deyin was a man, she would have to worry about her father!
"Miss Ruan? Miss Xiao?"
Suddenly a familiar voice sounded from behind, and when the two of them turned their heads to look, they saw Wei Jue, the prince of Wei who had been "sent" back from Jingbian in advance by Gu Changan.
