I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 278: Startling Steps - 4 Fu Jin 24

After hearing what she said, Yinsi thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. Ruoxi was right. Why didn't he think of it?

Sure enough, what Ruoxi said was sometimes very useful and very much to his liking.

Although Yinsi cannot go out of the mansion, he is now Prince Lian, and the mansion he lives in is not small, and there are many things to do in the mansion.

In Yinsi's eyes, Ruoxi was a very lively person. She was not like other noble ladies who were reserved in everything they did. Ruoxi would laugh loudly when she wanted to laugh and would also drink with him. The two were very close and could do whatever they wanted without following any rules.

Ruoxi likes to play ball, so Yinsi plays with her. Yinsi wants to ride a horse, but Ruoxi doesn't want to because she is afraid of falling and avoids it whenever possible.

But Yinsi disagreed, and finally Yinsi coaxed Ruoxi to ride with her.

Looking at Ruoxi riding on the horse with such a heroic appearance, Yinsi suddenly remembered Ruolan before she married him. Ruolan was the same at that time, with a smile on her face and looking heroic. But unfortunately, everything changed after their marriage, and Ruolan no longer looked so attractive to him.

But it doesn’t matter, he still has Ruoxi. Ruoxi’s appearance really makes up for the regret in his heart.

Ruoxi was enjoying her horseback riding and wanted to say a few words to Yinsi, so she was about to shout, "Yin..."

Before she finished shouting, Ruoxi discovered that something was wrong with Yinsi. Although Ruoxi wanted to become emperor by helping Yinsi and then sit on the throne of empress herself, she had to admit that Yinsi was very good to her now and she still liked him very much.

Some girls in love are very sensitive and can notice some subtle details. Now she also noticed some differences in Yinsi's treatment of her, as if Yinsi was looking at someone through her.

This feeling came very suddenly, but its presence was so obvious that she couldn't forget it even if she wanted to.

Because of this thought, her original mood to play with Yinsi was greatly reduced. She stared at Yinsi and said nothing.

Ruoxi's resentful look was too obvious, and Yinsi felt it. When he came back to his senses from his memories, he saw Ruoxi staring at him.

Yinsi asked, "What's wrong? Why don't you ride anymore?"

Ruoxi didn't ask, forget it, maybe she was overthinking it.

"Nothing, I'm just a little tired. Let's go back. I want to go back and rest."

Yinsi didn't want to leave as he hadn't finished his memories yet, but seeing Ruoxi's determined eyes, he had no choice but to give up.

At this time, in the main courtyard.

The people around Minghui were defending Minghui: "Fujin, the prince is really too much. He only favors the concubine, and you are the prince's legitimate wife. The prince doesn't even come to see you and the young master."

Minghui was not sad at all, and even had a smile on her face: "Where the prince wants to go is his business, why bother about it."

"Fujin..."

Minghui glanced at Tangzhi and said, "Okay, no need to say more. As long as the interests of Hongwang and I are not harmed, he can do whatever he wants. I won't care."

She is very sober now. She has already seen clearly what kind of person Yinsi is. It is better for him not to come, so as not to disturb her peace.

It’s just that the princes are now fighting fiercely, and Yinsi also has ambitions for the throne. He will definitely not stay trapped in the mansion forever, and he will definitely take some action.

This matter is not only important to Yinsi, but also to her. Yinsi is cold-hearted. If he sits on the throne, even if she is his wife, she will definitely not get anything good. So for her, the safest thing is that Yinsi does not sit on the throne, and her son Hongwang can inherit his title.

Now Yinsi is a prince, but that is not enough. She hopes he can be a prince, so now is not the most appropriate time. When the time is right, she will help Yinsi withdraw from the vortex of power and preserve the prince's palace in the future.

After Ruoxi returned, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. She recalled every time Yinsi was with her, and now she finally realized that something was wrong, which she had not noticed before.

When she was in modern times, she had also read novels, such as those about group pets, Mary Sue, and of course, those about substitutes.

Sometimes the way Yinsi looks at her is really like looking at his white moonlight through her. If you think in this way, she is just a substitute.

When she thought of this, she became very angry and furious. How could she have fallen to the level of a substitute?

Could it be that Yinsi's kindness to her was all fake?

No, we can't just make blind guesses like this, we should investigate. Yinsi was so good to her, what if he was wronged?

She is not an irrational woman.

Thinking of this, Ruoxi said to Qiaohui who was busy at the side: "Qiaohui, come here for a moment. I have something to ask you."

Qiao Hui was puzzled: "What's wrong, Concubine?"

Ruoxi asked the others in the room to leave, and then said, "Qiaohui, there is something I need you to investigate now."

Seeing how much Concubine trusted her, Qiaohui said firmly: "Don't worry, Concubine, I will investigate everything."

Hearing Qiaohui say this, Ruoxi patted her shoulder happily: "I feel relieved when you say that. It's like this. I always feel that the prince is looking at someone through me. Go and find out if there is a woman who looks like me and is good at riding a horse."

"You can't tell anyone about this. You must investigate it secretly. Do you understand?"

Ruoxi felt it most clearly when she and Yinsi were riding horses, so if there was such a woman, she must be able to ride a horse, and this made Yinsi very obsessed.

After saying this, Ruoxi, who was lost in her memories, did not notice Qiaohui's momentary stiffness and missed it.

Qiao Hui was afraid that Ruoxi had noticed something, so she quickly regained her normal expression and said, "Concubine, I will go and investigate right away."

After getting Ruoxi's consent, Qiaohui walked out of the room.

She couldn't help but look back with a look of surprise and doubt in her eyes. Concubine Ruoxi had forgotten everything that happened before because she fell from the attic, but she had always been with Concubine Ruolan. After Concubine Ruoxi spoke, she quickly knew who Concubine Ruoxi was talking about.

Isn't that Concubine Ruolan?

She really didn't expect that the prince was so good to Concubine Ruoxi. It was not because he loved her, but because he was looking at Concubine Ruolan through Concubine Ruoxi.

She knew very well that before Concubine Ruolan entered Prince Lian's Mansion, she loved riding horses very much, and her previous personality was similar to that of Concubine Ruoxi, both of them were lively and bright.

Now Ruoxi's concubine is in the dark, so she can't see anything. What should she do? Should she tell the truth? If she does, what if they break up? This is something she can't bear.

If Concubine Ruolan knew about this, she would definitely blame herself and regret it. Her health was not very good to begin with, what if it got worse?

After thinking it over, she still couldn't come up with a solution that would satisfy both parties. She might as well delay it as long as possible. Perhaps Concubine Ruoxi would forget about it soon.
