This man is really good at pretending.

Yin Ruoyue didn't cry out for pain, but just innocently looked at Xu Nuan and reached out to touch Xu Nuan's hand and said, "Isn't the princess quite calm and composed just now?"

"You scoundrel, why do you deliberately tease me every time?"

Xu Nuan was afraid that the pinch would be severe, so she couldn't bear to use a cruel hand, so she had to pretend to be cruel, and then let go of her hand.

"If you say it's bad, the princess is really bad, and she doesn't talk to Yue'er every time."

Yin Ruoyue simply sat up, held Xu Nuan's hand, and said full of resentment:

"In the past, the princess said that she had no friendship with Zhou Xia, but later she did not hesitate to break Yue'er's appointment, and went to Zhou Xia's appointment on purpose."

"Later the princess said that she was in love with Zhou Xia and even wanted to get married. She only returned to the palace for a few months. The marriage contract should have been negotiated with heavy etiquette. This suddenly announced to the world. How can Yue'er not be disturbed?"

There was nothing but sadness in these words, Xu Nuan was very angry at first, but after hearing these words, he couldn't help but soften his heart.

The hall was getting dark day by day, and the maids outside might not dare to come in if they heard the violent quarrel inside.

Xu Nuan sat up slightly and said, "I have never been discussed with anyone about the marriage, and I have not lied to you."

"Why are you so wronged?"

Xu Nuan looked at Yin Ruoyue's frustrated face anxiously, and said: "Although you and I can't get it right now, but we have known each other for so many years, you should know that I am not a casual person. Since you said that you have nothing to do with Zhou Xia, then you You should trust me."

"If you don't believe me, there's really nothing you can do, but you have to know that I...you know about most of my dealings with Zhou Xia, but I don't know at all about your dealings with other people. Have I ever been as uneasy as you? "

"The girl from the brothel, Liu Yan, and the rumors all over the city, and even the mountain-like invitation posts in other courtyards, have I ever told you so angrily about my unhappiness?"

After finishing all these words, Xu Nuan almost couldn't catch his breath, and his face turned red with anxiety.

Yin Ruoyue looked at Xu Nuan in surprise, and approached deliberately, her clear eyes reflected Xu Nuan's flushed face, gently raised her hand to hold Xu Nuan's face, and kissed Xu Nuan's lips.

Without saying a word, Xu Nuan was also taken aback, thinking why is there something wrong with Yin Ruoyue's reaction?

"So the princess was also jealous for Yue'er?"

There was surprise in Yin Ruoyue's eyes, and she happily wanted to get closer again. Xu Nuan had reacted at this moment, and stretched out her hand to push away Yin Ruoyue's approaching face.

The palm happened to stick to Yin Ruoyue's close lips, and the fiery breath fell on the palm, itching.

Wanting to take it back, but Yin Ruoyue grabbed her wrist, Xu Nuan, unable to advance or retreat, could only ask stubbornly, "What are you trying to do?"

Yin Ruoyue blinked her eyes lightly and replied with a smile: "It turns out that the princess will blush when she is angry."

"It's... not because of you!"

Xu Nuan almost couldn't hold back his expression, so he quickly took the opportunity to withdraw his hand.

"If the princess says she also minds my reputation in the capital, I won't let any gossip in the capital, okay?"

Yin Ruoyue didn't mind sitting and talking.

"Who cares?" Xu Nuan awkwardly avoided Yin Ruoyue's exploration, looked at the hall which was already somewhat unclear, and the voice he said could even echo gently in the hall.

Yin Ruoyue didn't speak any more, but hugged Xu Nuan's hand tightly, breathing very steadily.

"I... just thought that if you have intentions with others, you shouldn't come to tease me. This is really hateful!"

As she talked, Xu Nuan couldn't help but get angry at the end.

"It's not flirting." Yin Ruoyue stretched out her hand and held Xu Nuan's hand close to her heart, and said solemnly: "Any word you say to the princess, Yue'er can swear that it comes from the heart, and there is no falsehood."

"The marriage talisman was specifically requested by Yue'er, and Fu'er can testify."

Xu Nuan's whole body stiffened with the hand that was close to Yin Ruoyue's heart. Hearing Yin Ruoyue's serious confession, he felt uncomfortable.

Wanting to take back her hand, Yin Ruoyue tried her best but refused to let go, so Xu Nuan had no choice but to change the subject and say:

"The most urgent thing is to think about how to deal with this marriage that is announced to the world."

"No hurry."

Yin Ruoyue approached calmly, stretched out her hand and pulled Xu Nuan onto the bed together, leaned over and said flirtatiously: "As long as the fake show between me and the princess is real, everything will be fine."

Xu Nuan was so painful that she didn't dare to move around the wound on her waist. When she heard Yin Ruoyue say this, she stretched out her hand to push Yin Ruoyue.

Both hands were easily controlled by Yin Ruoyue, Xu Nuan had no choice but to shout: "Yin Ruoyue, you... are crazy!"

"If the princess really married Zhou Xia, then I would be crazy."

"Who said that marrying Zhou Xia is just a stopgap measure, you..."

The words stopped abruptly, before Xu Nuan even had time to react, Yin Ruoyue suddenly bit her lips, as if reluctant to leave, looked at Xu Nuan gently with her eyes and said:

"An expedient measure? Since ancient times, a woman's reputation is so important. Remarrying is not an easy task, but I can't tolerate sand. Even if the princess has no heart for Zhou Xia, it can't be guaranteed that Zhou Xia has selfish feelings for the princess."

"Zhou Mansion, how can I protect the princess?"

Obviously Yin Ruoyue's expression is gentle at the moment, but Xu Nuan still feels extremely indifferent.

"Yin Ruoyue, you don't believe me, do you?" Xu Nuan questioned.

"Yes, if Zhou Xia has a clue, the princess can leave it to me to deal with it. Why does the princess have to go back to the palace?" Yin Ruoyue said suspiciously, stroking Xu Nuan's forehead with her fingertips and said: "Obviously the princess is You don’t believe in Yue’er, do you?”

It was obvious that the confession was true just now, but now it has turned into mutual suspicion. Xu Nuan can no longer tell what Yin Ruoyue is true and what is false.

"Yes, I don't believe you, why did you ever believe me?" Xu Nuan asked back: "When I first entered the palace, I let my personal maid, Fu'er, guard me, and arranged many people beside me. They were ordered to protect me. Don't you know what you're doing?"

No matter what she did, there would be someone watching over her. Even after sending Fu'er away from the palace, Yin Ruoyue still did not remove the maid who followed her every day.

Even Xu Nuan inadvertently discovered that the maids often sent their daily routines out of the palace through carrier pigeons.

Xu Nuan has chosen not to pursue these matters.

Yin Ruoyue was obviously surprised, her eyebrows frowned, she looked at Xu Nuan coldly and said, "How can a princess who seldom goes out of the palace know the important affairs of the court, and even be so keen on the political affairs of the current situation? Unless the princess has raised Your own spy, otherwise how would you know so much information?"

"But I have been observing in secret for so long, and the princess still hasn't shown the slightest sign. She really hides deeply."

Xu Nuan never imagined that Yin Ruoyue still doubted herself so much until now, and even doubted that she would deliberately cultivate a team of spies secretly.

If she really suspected this early in the morning, then how deep is her mind hidden?

Thinking about it this way, Xu Nuan felt terrible and exasperating, and without knowing where the strength came from, she pushed Yin Ruoyue away fiercely.

Unexpectedly, Yin Ruoyue fell to one side and landed beside the bed, her eyes were full of surprise and confusion.

"Leave immediately, and you are never allowed to come to Yuzhao Palace!" Xu Nuanqi said while holding the quilt tightly in his hands.

Yin Ruoyue sat on the ground, without saying a word, Xu Nuan threw the round pillow on the bed, and finally threw the quilt out to relieve her anger.

Xu Nuan didn't know where he got the strength to get up, probably because there was too much commotion and the maid outside ran in.

Yin Ruoyue, who was sitting blankly, got up and left the hall, Xu Nuanqi was nestled on the bed and had no energy to say a word.

In the early morning of the next day, my whole body ached so badly that I couldn't speak, and then I had a fever.

The illness lasted for more than half a month, and when Xu Nuan was able to leave the bed, it was already November.

The weather was slightly cold, Xu Nuan was holding a teacup in his hand and flipping through the ledger, while Zhou Xia looked at this direction from time to time with a little uneasiness.

"Then the candy shop in the capital is really owned by a princess?" Zhou Xia asked hesitantly.

"Ah."

Xu Nuan responded softly, while facing the account book, writing calculations to calculate the accounts.

"I sent my cronies to check the name of the candy shop registered in the government office, and it is the princess' name."

The hall was very quiet, Xu Nuan stopped writing, looked sideways at Zhou Xia, and asked, "Is it really my name?"

Zhou Xia, who wanted to drink tea, was a little flustered by Xu Nuan's scrutiny and nodded in response: "Yes, there is no trace of modification."

Then Yin Ruoyue probably said that day just to tease herself.

"I just don't know why the princess didn't go to Mrs. Yin. Mrs. Yin is the minister who was arranged by the court to be responsible for the record management of the Shogunate's tax shop. Wouldn't it be more convenient?"

Xu Nuan came back to his senses and said, "Could it be that you haven't heard outside the palace that Yin Ruoyue and I have cut off contact?"

"There are indeed rumors, but it is just that Lady Yin and the princess are deeply in love with each other, and I don't know if the rumor is true or not."

"Let's not talk about that, when is our wedding?" Xu Nuan asked, changing the subject.

Zhou Xia looked at Xu Nuan in a daze, and replied: "On April [-]th of the following year, the Princess Mansion has already been built in the capital, and it may be completed in time."

"Oh."

Or seeing Xu Nuan so calm, Zhou Xia asked unsteadily: "Princess... really want to get married like this?"

"So what if it doesn't end?" Xu Nuan asked while holding a pen.

Zhou Xia sighed suddenly, and said: "Yes, as a minister, I have to obey the emperor's order, and that is to wrong the princess."

Ben Xu Nuan was full of calculations, and when he heard Zhou Xia's melancholy tone, he couldn't help laughing and jokingly said: "If you want to say that the grievance is the grievance of General Zhou, I am not in good health. If I have nothing to do in the future, I'm afraid I have to bear it." Bad words."

"Princess, I was joking. It's just that Lady Yin seems to be a little unusual these days. She often invites my ministers to the Yanliu Alley, which is really inappropriate."

Xu Nuan put down her pen, stretched out her hand to hold the teacup, took a sip and said, "Be careful, she's probably after you."

"Especially when the wedding is approaching, you should bring more soldiers by your side in case of any eventuality."

Zhou Xia looked at Xu Nuan in embarrassment, and said in a dilemma: "Princess, why don't you reconcile with Lady Yin?"

"Why?" Xu Nuan asked in confusion.

Seeing that Zhou Xia was full of embarrassment and said: "The rumors about the three of them in the capital have not subsided. Now I am engaged to the princess, and Lady Yin is blatantly entangled. It is really hard to stop talking about the difference between men and women."

Xu Nuan felt helpless for a while, because Yin Ruoyue was too unruly.
