There is a window beside the desk where Ye Chu reads and writes, and he can just see the situation in the front yard.

Liu Ru felt that Ye Chu didn't want to talk to her, and felt a little disappointed.Distraught, she leaned against the window and looked out, just in time to see Lin Muxuan and Yunxiu who were meeting each other at the gate of the yard.

It was also Lin Muxuan's bad luck. When he was an imperial physician in the palace, he often went to Fengqi Palace. Liu Ruyi often visited the palace and met him face to face.

Furthermore, the qualifications of dragons and phoenixes among people are different from those of ordinary servants.

Lin Muxuan has the gentle temperament of a scholar at first glance, coupled with his excellent appearance, he looks very transparent, standing out from the crowd of Ye family's servants.

Liu Ruyi glanced casually at first, she was thinking about Ye Chu's matter in her heart, and didn't pay attention to this outstanding servant, but the feeling of familiarity was lingering.

When Liu Ruyi turned her head to look at Ye Chu, after thinking about the turmoil in the house these days, she suddenly realized in her heart.I'm afraid that person has something to do with Ye Chu, otherwise, how could the imperial doctor who consulted the queen in the palace appear here disguised as a servant of the Ye family?

After figuring this out, Liu Ruyi subconsciously wanted to tell Ye Kang about her discovery.After all, Ye Kang is the prime minister and the head of the family, she is used to taking her husband as her god.

But when Liu Ruyi was just taking a step, Ye Chu's cold voice rang in her ears, saying: "Mother, do you want to stay here? You don't need to persuade her anymore. My daughter has her own idea."

Hearing the cold emotion in Ye Chu's voice, Liu Ruyi felt a pain in her heart, and suppressed what she had just discovered.

"Chu'er, why are you so resistant? Your father is always doing it for your own good!" Liu Ruyi had just said this when she keenly noticed that Ye Chu frowned suddenly, with a bit of disgust in her eyes.

She stopped talking all of a sudden, couldn't help sighing, and said: "Forget it, since you don't want to listen to this, then mother will stop talking, but... mother can't let you go, so I will rest with you today."

Where would Ye Chu want to be?

But Liu Ruyi was surprisingly stubborn at this time, and Yunxiu also took the drawing paper and led Lin Muxuan in.

Ye Chu's eyes lit up when he saw Lin Muxuan, but he was worried about Liu Ruyi's presence, so it was inconvenient to discuss matters with him.

Seeing this, Lin Muxuan took the initiative to stay in the room and help Ye Chu study ink.Taking advantage of this brief gap, the two met their eyes and quietly agreed to meet at night.

Liu Ruyi didn't notice the strangeness between them, but stopped Lin Muxuan when he was leaving, and asked in the attitude of the head of the house, "You look a bit unfamiliar, you are a newcomer to the mansion recently. Did you come?"

Lin Muxuan paused as he was walking outside, when he suddenly recalled that he had met Liu Ru in Fengqi Palace, he felt a little suspicious.

But even so, he still maintained the respectful appearance that a servant should have, so that Liu Ruyi couldn't see the slightest flaw.

Seeing the actions between Lin Muxuan and Ye Chu, Liu Ruyi pursed her lips and said nothing, but finally waved her hand and said pretending to ignore: "You step back, if there is nothing important for the servant in the outer court, don't set foot in the inner house. Hand it over to the servant girl at the Hanging Flower Gate."

There is a hanging flower gate between the inner house and the outer courtyard, which is often called the "two gates".

A serious girl always lives in a small space in the back house, so she doesn't meet outside men in order to preserve her reputation.

However, due to the openness of the dynasty, although the rich families still follow this rule, they don't restrict their daughters as much as they used to.

Ye Chu didn't expect Liu Ruyi to give such an admonition suddenly, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.

Ever since Liu Ruyi was left out in the cold by her just now, she has been a little abnormal.She couldn't tell what went wrong, but looking carefully, Liu Ruyi didn't intend to complain to Ye Kang.

Time passed little by little, and the sky quickly darkened.

Zhi Qing brought hot water for Ye Chu to wash up. When she entered the room, she saw Liu Ruyi still sitting on the soft couch beside her, so she stopped in her tracks.

Yunxiu and Zhiqing had discussed in private. During the day, when Imperial Physician Lin came to deliver things, she said that she would come quietly to discuss countermeasures with Ye Chu at night, and Zhiqing was also working hard to cope with this.

But now Liu Ruyi is in the room, and it looks like she really intends to sleep with Ye Chu... At that time, how will Ye Chu meet Lin Muxuan?

She was worried in her heart, and couldn't help showing three points of hesitation on her face, which Ye Chu immediately noticed.

"It's just a few small things. Since mother is going to rest here, you can go and clean up the bed." Ye Chu ordered in a calm tone, but paused while washing with a handkerchief, "Take me out of bed." The box of Buddhist incense brought back from the palace is lit in the house, for fear that I will not get used to sleeping at night."

Zhiqing immediately understood that Ye Chu has been very sensitive to the fragrances around her since she was pregnant, and never lit incense in the bedroom in the palace.

Needless to say, this incense must have been prepared for Liu Ruyi.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ruyi, who was sitting upright, suddenly became alert when she heard the word "Xianxiang", she raised her head and glanced at Ye Chu, her soft and gentle eyebrows became a little harsh.

"Chu'er, don't play such petty thoughts in front of your mother. When a woman is pregnant, she needs to be cautious about food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Incense is the most likely place to be tampered with. You didn't use these in the past!"

Liu Ruyi had given birth to a child, although she didn't doubt it when she heard this, but she also knew that it was extremely dangerous to be exposed to incense when she was pregnant.

Just when Liu Ruyi was about to remind Ye Chu not to use incense, she suddenly realized that she had never smelled incense on Ye Chu these days.

Unexpectedly, her mother would see through her idea, Ye Chu's eyes flashed with embarrassment, and said: "What mother taught me is that my daughter always likes to sleep alone, I'm afraid she is not used to sleeping with her mother."

Hearing this, Liu Ruyi became more and more sure that Ye Chu was pushing to rest with her.

She sighed heavily, stepped forward and took Ye Chu's hand, and said: "The matter is settled like this, and you don't have to repent. Tonight, let's have a good heart-to-heart talk."

Liu Ruyi was kind, and although Ye Chu was unwilling in every possible way, he couldn't find a reason to refuse.

She nodded superficially, but she thought of another way in her heart.

When Zhi Qing got the order, she first looked at Ye Chu in surprise, but seeing the latter's firm gaze, she stepped back and followed suit.

"This is the supper that has been simmering in the small kitchen, the best black chicken soup with red dates, I just prepared it in advance in case my mother will be hungry at night!"

Holding the soup pot, Zhi Qing took out a small purple sand bowl and handed out a portion to Ye Chu.

When Liu Ruyi was not looking, Ye Chu stretched out his hand and knocked over the soup bowl, and his left hand was immediately burned red.
