"So I want you to protect her. This is the only important thing for you in the Prime Minister's Mansion." He turned his head and looked at A Li, as if he had seen through all his thoughts today.
In the future, his relationship with Wu Sheyue will become closer and closer, and their interests will become more and more entangled, so they must be prepared to support each other for a long time. He has many enemies. Since he wants to lure Wu Sheyue into the water, he should protect her.
Ah Li felt a little panicked. In the past, no matter how big or small the issue was, his master rarely emphasized him so solemnly and repeatedly. It seemed that this time the master was really interested. He clenched his hand, gritted his teeth and nodded, "I understand that everything must be done with Miss Third's safety as the top priority."
"Go back, don't leave her side if you have nothing to do."
"Yes." A Li immediately turned around and left.
Yu Jing stood alone, his thumb moved slightly, stroking the side of his index finger. The warm feeling when they held hands just now is still very clear.

Wu Sheyue and Ning'er returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion through the front door openly. Ning'er held a bunch of snacks that she had scavenged on the street and asked her with a smile along the way, "Miss, it turns out you like the young prince? The young prince is better than Mr. Xue and the prince."
"No...it's all lies." Wu Sheyue thought about it and decided to tell the truth.
"False?" Ning'er blinked, wondering which part of what she said was false.
Wu Sheyue shrugged and said helplessly: "Hey, Yu Jing is a thick guy, it will be very useful for me to have some friendship with him. Your lady doesn't plan to marry herself off yet, so don't worry about it all the time. .”
But Ning'er had some doubts, "But I don't think it's very... fake."
"What do you mean?" Wu Sheyue was at a loss for the first time.
Ning'er thought for a moment and was considering her words. At this moment, the two of them suddenly saw several women turning at the fork in the road ahead.
Wu Sheyue stopped and found that it was Ning Shuang whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
I saw that Ning Shuang's belly was obviously bulging. In addition, her summer clothes were thin, which made her body plump and round, making her look much richer. There were two maids beside her who were carefully supporting her, but she was still holding her belly with one hand and carefully pulling on the cuff of a maid with the other hand.
They turned to the other side at the intersection, so they never saw Wu Sheyue.
Ning'er stared at Ning Shuang's back and couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, it turns out that Miss Ning Shuang's child is already so old. I haven't seen her much before."
Wu Sheyue's eyes darkened, "Have you noticed that Ning Shuang seems to be very low-key all the time? Being low-key always makes us ignore that there is such a person in the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Yes," Ning'er nodded in approval, "I have heard people talk about this girl Ning Shuang before. They said she is very easy to talk to and treats her servants well. The master now sleeps in girl Ning Shuang's room every day. But I don’t see her looking domineering, she should be someone who is easy to get along with and has no fight with the world.”
"I hope." The corner of Wu Sheyue's mouth raised slightly. If she could still keep Wu Hantian from going to other wives and concubines while pregnant with her child, could she really be incapable of living aloof from the world
While the two were talking, they had already reached the fork in the road just now. Wu Sheyue looked in the direction Ning Shuang came from. Her heart moved and she suddenly turned around and walked that way.
Ning'er followed up in shock and asked, "Miss, where are we going? Aren't we going back to the West Courtyard?"
"Well, we have to go see my fourth sister who has a rough fate."
"Ah?" Ning'er exclaimed, "Yesterday, the second young master regarded the young lady as his enemy. If we go, aren't we looking for trouble?"
"Yeah, just looking for trouble~"
—
The two of them walked along the road to the courtyard of the fourth house. Standing outside the gate, they could clearly hear the faint noise coming from inside, and it sounded like the content was not shouted by one person.
Wu Sheyue raised her hand and patted the closed door, but the door swung open in an instant. I saw a stunned young boy standing at the door, staring blankly at Wu Sheyue.
As soon as the door opened, clearer shouts came from the courtyard, and Wu Lixiang was heard yelling at the top of her lungs: "I won't, I won't go even if I die! What should I do, Brother Rong—"
Then Aunt Liu cried excitedly, "How long have you been mentioning that? You should first think about how you live!"
Then there was another crackling sound.
"How is my fourth sister doing now?" Wu Sheyue pushed the boy aside and stepped inside.
Aunt Liu heard the knocking on the door in the room, and immediately rushed out with red eyes.
"Aunt Liu." Wu Sheyue was not surprised to see her like this and greeted her calmly.
Aunt Liu's footsteps suddenly stopped in the middle of the yard. She pointed at Wu Sheyue with a ferocious face and yelled, "What are you doing here? There are no jokes you want here!"
"Auntie, what are you talking about? The fourth sister is my blood relative, are you telling a joke?" Wu Sheyue had a slight smile on her face and asked as she walked in: "I don't know how the fourth sister is now, but Are you feeling better? Is there anything uncomfortable about it?"
But Aunt Liu had already concluded that she had a conspiracy, so she started to point at Wu Sheyue's nose hysterically and shout angrily: "You don't have to be pretentious, do you think I don't know your dirty thoughts! Lixiang is obviously like this today. It was you who framed me! How can one or two of you be a good person? You are still pretending now, are you disgusting?"
Wu Sheyue raised her eyebrows slightly, "It seems that someone else came to complain to Auntie, and it didn't go well with her."
Wu Lixiang was still crying for her brother Rong in the house, and Aunt Liu was yelling and cursing outside. The whole courtyard was very lively. At this time, Wu Ziming also left Wu Lixiang and rushed out, probably because he thought he should deal with the visitors first.
When he saw Wu Sheyue, his expression was a little complicated. He looked away, first walked over and took Aunt Liu's arm and persuaded: "Auntie, please rest for a while. If you get angry again, there will be no hope for us. ”
Aunt Liu still listened to Wu Ziming's words. She stopped talking and panted heavily, her chest heaving violently.
Afterwards, Wu Ziming looked at Wu Sheyue unkindly and asked, "I wonder what the third sister is doing here."
This is the first time I heard this title from Wu Ziming~ Wu Sheyue reached back and pulled out a few large packages of things from Ning'er's arms and handed them over, "It's nothing, I just went out today and brought them specially for my fourth sister. Some snacks from Longshanju. Actually, I don’t know how to make the fourth sister feel better, so I’ll give it a try.”
