IACF [QT] Chapter 76.2

Shen Shuyao lowered her head slightly, and while answering, she couldn’t help but secretly look at her.

It had been a year since they last parted. Although she was in the backyard of the Shen family, news about her kept coming in. It wasn’t because the people below were too gossipy, but because her experience made people both surprised and envious.

She met Prince Rui by chance at the Dragon Boat Festival, and he fell in love with her at first sight. A few months later, she married into the palace and became a high and mighty princess as a second bride. A few months later, she became pregnant, which severely slapped the faces of those who implied that she was infertile.

Every one of these was even more exciting than a play.

Shen Shuyao knew before that the second madam of their family would have a more brilliant future after leaving the Shen Mansion, just like a bird out of a cage, but she didn’t expect that she could be so brilliant, which was really far from others.

The two of them didn’t have much to say.

Su Yi invited the person up because she thought that in the big dye vat of the Shen Mansion, only this little girl had not been soaked. She still had outstanding qualities, making people willing to stay in the same room with her.

She finally said: “You and I have known each other for a while. If you encounter anything in the future and need help, come to the palace to find me.”

“Thank you, Princess.”

Shen Shuyao bowed again and prepared to leave, but her face was hesitant. Obviously, she had something else to say, but she didn’t know whether to say it or not.

Su Yi said, “What’s wrong?”

Shen Shuyao hesitated, bit her lip after a while, and said with determination, “Shuyao dared to ask the Princess to let me have a word with you.”

Before Su Yi expressed her opinion, Qing Xing was the first to disagree, fearing that she would do something bad to the Princess.

But with Su Yi’s ability, not to mention a little girl, even King Rui couldn’t hurt her at all. Besides, she was a little curious about what Shen Shuyao was going to say, so she asked the people around her to temporarily retreat outside.

When there were only two of them left in the private room, Shen Shuyao said, “A few days ago, Shuyao had a dream, and the dream was like reality…”

As Su Yi listened, she was a little surprised that the other party was actually reminding her to be careful about something happening to King Rui.

Obviously, Shen Shuyao remembered the death of King Rui in her previous life, but she was trapped in the backyard for many years, and she was even more confused in the years after she got married. Her memory was not very clear, and she couldn’t remember in which year King Rui had an accident.

But Su Yi knew that what she said was probably about King Rui going south to suppress bandits and being injured by miasma and poisonous insects. The real King Rui was indeed dead, and it was her dog who was alive now.

Shen Shuyao used dreams as an excuse to reveal to her some things she knew about her previous life.

Although this matter had passed, Su Yi still felt grateful to the other party.

After she left, Qing Xing came in immediately and looked Su Yi around before she felt relieved.

Su Yi said happily: “Do you think she, a little girl, can really do anything to me?”

Qing Xing curled her lips and said: “You can’t know a person’s heart, Princess. Don’t blame me for being narrow-minded. Some things have to be prevented, otherwise, if something unexpected happens, when the King comes back, won’t he peel off our skin?”

“What does your King want your skin for? To make boots? It’s not as good as cowhide.”

Su Yi deliberately teased her, causing Qing Xing to stomp her feet.

Suddenly, there was a commotion on the street.

Qing Xing looked out and immediately said with a smile, “The King is back!”

Su Yi was not that surprised. If she hadn’t calculated that she would meet him, why would she go out today?

She walked to the window and saw the tall figure of King Rui standing on his horse from a distance. As they were in a busy city, he had to ride slowly toward this side. On both sides of the road, young girls and madams all looked at him with red faces.

This scene was somewhat similar to the Dragon Boat Festival last year.

Su Yi played with an almond on her fingertips carelessly. When the person on the horse passed by the teahouse, the almond flew out with a flick of her finger.

Almost at the same time, King Rui stretched out his hand to block it, but unexpectedly, he failed to block it, and the almond hit his head.

He was stunned for a moment and then reacted in the blink of an eye. The only person in the world that he couldn’t block or avoid was that person.

When he looked up, he saw someone standing by the window on the third floor. The face hidden by the veil must be stunning and cunning.

Everyone on the whole street saw that the King’s horse stopped, and a subtle smile appeared on his face that made people respect and fear.

Although it was fleeting, that moment was like the birth of spring water and the cracking of ice.

King Rui stepped on his horse and flew into the air. In the blink of an eye, he was outside the window fence. Then, amid Qing Xing’s screams, he slowly landed on his horse, holding his princess.

Su Yi’s veil was blown up by the wind, revealing her stunning face underneath. Unfortunately, it only flashed by quickly before the King covered it up.

He carried the person on the horse, carefully protected the princess’s face in his arms, and then rode away with the princess, leaving Qing Xing and a group of servants who were extremely anxious, as well as pedestrians on the street who could not recover for a long time.

It is conceivable that after today, what kind of legends will there be in the capital city regarding King Rui and the Princess.
