Chapter 1641: Prophecy about the Sixth Prince
Chapter 1641: Prophecy about the Sixth Prince
The eldest lady did not have Madam Sima brought to the front hall, but received her directly in her courtyard.
Yan Ruyu originally planned to go back and change her clothes before meeting the guests, but before she left the house, Old Madam Sima arrived.
As soon as she saw Yan Ruyu, the old lady's eyes were filled with tears and she asked the maid to help her kneel down.
Yan Ruyu quickly supported him with both hands: "Madam, this is not allowed."
As an elder, the old lady also regained her status as an imperial edict.
Madam Sima tightly grasped Yan Ruyu's hand and said, "Princess, I really don't know what to say. I know everything, I know everything."
Yan Ruyu wondered at first how she knew that, but then she thought again and realized that this was not surprising, as it should be a letter written by Mr. Sima.
Ma Liyu has pigeons, so it is not difficult to send messages by carrier pigeons.
I guess Uncle Sima also didn't want his old mother to be kept in the dark and missed the kindness of the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion.
Now that she knew, Yan Ruyu didn't act pretentiously: "Old Madam, let's go inside and talk."
The old lady wiped her tears and followed her into the house. She saw that she was still wearing tight clothes and boots, and the hem of her clothes and the toes of her boots were covered with dust. She knew that she had not had time to wash.
"Princess, please go wash up and rest. I will just have a chat with the Madam."
The eldest lady came forward to greet them, Yan Ruyu smiled, and left with Huo Changhe.
The two went back to the yard to wash up, and Linlang pulled the boss around in the yard, chattering.
Yan Ruyu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that her own home was still more comfortable.
I took a shower, wrung out my hair, and the kitchen brought two bowls of steaming hot noodle soup. After I drank both the soup and the noodles, I felt extremely comfortable.
"Your Highness, please take a rest first. I will go and see my mother."
The old lady is a female guest, so she can go. Besides, Huo Changhe has been running around these days, often working around the clock. In order to let her rest, he has taken up his own rest time.
Huo Changhe was just about to say that he wanted to do something else, but Yan Ruyu held him back.
"Rest and sleep."
Huo Changhe smiled helplessly: "Okay, I'll listen to Yu'er."
He went to bed to rest. Yan Ruyu let down the bed curtains for him and lit a sleeping incense.
He walked out of the house slowly and told Linlang to speak softly. Linlang nodded with her mouth tightly closed.
The old lady was having a pleasant conversation with the first lady. Yan Ruyu told her roughly what happened on the road and mentioned that Mr. Sima was in good health and the whole family was well. The old lady burst into tears again.
After saying a lot of polite words and insisting that the gifts she had brought should be put down, the eldest lady had no choice but to accept them.
Until the old lady left and Yan Ruyu sent her to the door of the mansion, the old lady was still thanking her.
Watching the carriage go away, the eldest lady couldn't help but sigh: "We should have kept it a secret from her. She is so old, she is worried every day, and now she has to worry even more."
"Uncle Sima must have thought it over again and again. Maybe he didn't want his old mother to be ignorant and unfeeling when she saw us."
The eldest lady thought this made sense and nodded.
Yan Ruyu glanced at the intersection and said to the eldest lady, "Mother, please go back to the mansion first. The prince is resting. I will go to the snack shop and bring him some snacks."
The lady readily agreed.
Yan Ruyu didn't take anyone with her and walked to the intersection alone: "Come out."
Taoist Xuanqing walked out slowly and said with a smile, "I can't hide it from the princess."
"You were standing there just now, with your sleeves and hems swinging up to the sky. Who couldn't see it?"
"What's the matter? Tell me straight away."
Taoist Xuanqing handed over a few pages of paper: "This is according to the princess's instructions. Everything I know is written here."
Yan Ruyu didn't answer: "Didn't I write it last time?"
"The last time it was incomplete," Taoist Xuanqing smiled flatteringly, "I thought about it for a long time and racked my brains before I came up with it this time."
"Isn't this just made up?"
"How could that be possible?" Taoist Xuan Qing quickly shook his head, "I swear to heaven, everything written above is true, not a single word is false."
Yan Ruyu then took it. Taoist Xuanqing looked around to see if there was anyone around, and then said, "Princess, the records here are all important events, and one of them is the biggest."
Yan Ruyu flipped through it nonchalantly: "What's the big deal?"
"The Sixth Prince will die."
Yan Ruyu paused without looking at him, and said, "Aren't you not very clear about the affairs of the court?"
"I'm not very clear," Xuan Qing said, "but I remembered it through other memories."
"I met a fellow Taoist from Shencheng two days ago. He said he had just been to Dacheng and mentioned the marriage between Dacheng and our dynasty. He said that many people in Dacheng were dissatisfied with the Ninth Princess' marriage."
"He also said that this matter might bring disaster to Dacheng. I suddenly remembered that in the previous life, the Sixth Prince spoke for the prince and asked the emperor to agree to let the prince take over the old prince's body. When the emperor was hesitating, someone exposed that his princess was a fake."
"This investigation was incredible, it turned out to be false! Therefore, he could not protect himself, and was unable to plead for the prince. The emperor was also furious and directly denied that the prince should go to pick up the old prince. When the Sixth Prince heard about this, he committed suicide!"
Yan Ruyu was startled, but asked calmly, "Have you written all of this down?"
Taoist Xuanqing nodded repeatedly: "I have written it, it is all written."
"Okay, I'll take it back and have a look."
She turned to leave, and Taoist Xuanqing said quickly: "Princess, um... you see, I have also expressed my loyalty and sincerity, and I really want to serve you, may I know..."
Yan Ruyu thought for a moment and said, "Want to help?"
"Yes," Taoist Xuanqing nodded repeatedly.
"How about this," Yan Ruyu said, "Bring all your things here. Since you are going to serve the palace and you have a special experience, I don't want anything of yours to be lost outside."
Taoist Xuanqing was stunned for a moment: "This is natural."
"So, you have to go back and sort everything out."
When Taoist Xuanqing heard this, he thought it was a possible solution, so he suppressed his joy and agreed immediately.
"Okay, I'll go back now."
He turned and left. Yan Ruyu made a gesture and the secret guards who had been following him followed him.
Whether he needs to talk about it separately or not, we must find out the secrets behind his hiding place and the Goddess of Heaven's Eye.
Even now, Yan Ruyu still does not agree with Taoist Xuanqing's character.
I took the paper back to the palace, and just as I reached the door, I heard the sound of hurried wheels.
"Sister-in-law!"
Yan Ruyu turned around and saw Huo Changhe getting off the carriage.
"What's the matter, in such a hurry?"
"No, nothing. I heard that my elder brother and his wife are back, so I...I came back to see them."
Yan Ruyu understood. She and Huo Changhe were busy doing things outside and didn't feel anything. But the people at home had a hard time every day and must have felt that time was very long.
She smiled faintly: "We are fine, everything is fine, but your eldest brother is resting, don't disturb him."
"We'll have dinner together later."
"Yes." Huo Changxu let out a sigh.
Yan Ruyu walked in with him and asked, "How is the situation over there?"
Huo Changxu whispered, "Does sister-in-law mean Yu Qingyue?"
