Chapter 7 Leave Me Alone
Only then did Ye Jinshu turn his gaze to Ye Ruoyan.

In fact, she had seen Ye Ruoyan when the prince came in just now, but she pretended not to see her because she was embarrassed.

Ye Jinshu was embarrassed.

Once she accepted the fact that Ye Ruoyan would become the Crown Princess in the future, her mood became complicated.

If she had to use a sentence to describe the feeling in Ye Jinshu's heart, she would like to call it... It was like the feeling of helplessness of an eighty-year-old man who carried sixty buckets of water to the village head under the scorching sun to water the vegetable seedlings, only to find out that he was watering someone else's land.

really tired.

But we have to face it.

"What do you want to give me?"

Ye Jinshu tried hard to recall the past, trying to remember what Ye Ruoyan would do at this point in time, but the memories of five lifetimes were mixed together, so she couldn't guess which one was most similar to this one.

She only remembered that Ye Ruoyan had given her a lot of things, some of which were given to her through the prince, and some of which were given to her personally.

However, no matter who gave it to her, as long as it was given by Ye Ruoyan, it would be an insult to Ye Jinshu. How could she accept it?

As a result, the only memories left of Ye Jinshu now are that he raised his hand to knock the gift out of Ye Ruoyan's hand, that he scolded Ye Ruoyan and asked her to take back the gift, that he called Xiao Cui and asked her to throw the gift away, that he yelled at the prince and refused to accept the gift from Ye Ruoyan, and that in his previous life, he had basically given up struggling and just accepted Ye Ruoyan's gift.

But Secretary Ye Jin couldn't figure out what the gift was.

This made Ye Jinshu couldn't help but think of the so-called story of the rebirth of a legitimate daughter that he had read some time ago. The legitimate daughter in the story remembered everything that happened in her previous life clearly, even what was eaten in the mansion on any given day, and was able to use this information to help her rebirth.

But! Ye Jinshu, who was truly reborn, is here to vindicate those who were reborn.

I can’t remember, I can’t remember so much at all, everything in the storybook is fake!
Even if she was reborn five times, she would never be able to remember what she ate every day in the palace!
Ye Ruoyan had already handed over her gift with an expectant look on her face. It was a sachet that looked crudely embroidered, but the sachet itself exuded a strong medicinal scent.

"Sister, this is the sachet I embroidered myself. The embroidery is not very good, but I filled it with medicinal herbs to nourish the body. Just now, I saw you in the palace with the palace maids, so I thought you might need this."

Ye Ruoyan spoke sincerely, and there was no sign of anything unusual on her face. If Ye Jinshu had not learned from Ye Ruoyan in her previous life that she had always hated herself and the Ye family, she would have been deceived by Ye Ruoyan.

And now, looking at Ye Ruoyan's expression, Ye Jinshu strangely had only one thought.

My sister is a good actress!

How exactly is this natural sense of anticipation performed?
There's no flaw at all!

If she refused a gift from such a sincere little girl, she would be guilty of a capital crime!
After examining the relationship between himself and Ye Ruoyan from a third-party perspective, Ye Jinshu suddenly understood why so many people stood by Ye Ruoyan.

Ye Jinshu's eyes fell on the sachet in Ye Ruoyan's hand again.

The embroidery is indeed worrying, but it smells good.

I have only smelled the scent from a distance, and I feel a sense of concentration and calmness. I can't imagine how healthy and happy the little princess will be if she really accepts this sachet.

Ye Jinshu had always known that his half-sister was quite knowledgeable in medicine and could even cure some difficult and complicated diseases that even the Imperial Hospital was helpless to treat.

In the past, I either hated her or was so disheartened that I never paid much attention to the gifts she sent me.

But in this life, since Ye Jinshu has decided to farm, he must take good care of his health.

The thing in Ye Ruoyan's hand is obviously a good thing for health preservation, so she took it!

"Thank you for your thoughtfulness, sister." Fearing that Ye Ruoyan would go back on her word, Ye Jinshu quickly put away the sachet.

Ye Ruoyan looked at the sachet in her hand that Ye Jinshu had accepted, and the alarm bells in her heart rang again.

Not right.

Something is wrong with Ye Jinshu.

In the past, she should have fiercely knocked the sachet in her hand away and warned herself not to seek popularity in the palace by relying on her tricks as a quack doctor, instead of accepting her gift with a smile on her face as she did now.

Ye Ruoyan's eyes quietly fell on the prince beside her.

After seeing the prince's expression, Ye Ruoyan knew that things were going to be difficult.

If Ye Jinshu doesn't continue to be jealous and arrogant, she will never have a chance to turn things around. Chu Yi was also surprised to see Ye Jinshu calmly accept Ye Ruoyan's gift.

In fact, when Ye Ruoyan suddenly gave him a gift just now, he had already prepared to appease Ye Jinshu. Unexpectedly, Ye Jinshu did nothing, which made him seem like he was judging others by his own standards.

"You've been very well behaved today." Chu Yi did not hesitate to praise him, but Ye Jinshu, who used to be delighted by his words, now had no reaction to his words.

Chu Yi lowered his eyes slightly, and the strange feeling in his heart just now surged up again, but he quickly suppressed it.

"The stuff has been delivered, so I will go back first.

Chu Yi said this while observing Ye Jinshu's expression.

There was still no trace of him in Ye Jinshu's eyes.

"Farewell, Prince."

After the Second Prince left Anping Palace with a sullen face, the Crown Prince wasn't in much better shape when he left.

Ye Ruoyan did not live in Anping Palace like Ye Jinshu. She lived in a place next to the cold palace in the palace. Not only was the location remote, but it was also far away from the nobles in the palace. If she was invited to attend any gathering among noble ladies, she would have to walk a long time.

However, this is already the best treatment a concubine of the Ye family can get in the palace.

After all, when the entire Ye family died in the battle, they only asked for mercy for Ye Jinshu.

She, Ye Ruoyan, was allowed to enter the palace thanks to the kindness of the emperor and empress, so that she would not end up living on the streets. However, she was no longer granted other favors.

Ye Ruoyan walked towards her palace, but the prince, who usually would send her back to the palace, stopped first this time.

"Yan'er."

Ye Ruoyan paused, put her expression in order, looked up at the prince innocently, and asked in confusion: "Brother, what's wrong?"

"In the palace, you have to call me His Highness." Chu Yi pointed out Ye Ruoyan's little trick without any hesitation, and returned the gift that Ye Ruoyan had given him outside the palace just now to Ye Ruoyan.

"Jinshu seems to be different to you now. It's better if you deliver it yourself."

Ye Ruoyan took the thing from the prince without saying a word, still looking well-behaved.

Seeing the prince preparing to leave, Ye Ruoyan reached out her hand and tremblingly grasped the corner of Chu Yi's clothes, looking up at Chu Yi from below, and asked softly: "Your Highness, aren't you going to see me off today?"

Chu Yi couldn't bear to see Ye Ruoyan like this. He sighed and walked in front of Ye Ruoyan.

"I'll send you off."

A bright smile appeared on Ye Ruoyan's face again.

At this time, not far away, in a corner of Anping Palace, Ye Jinshu slapped his thigh hard and started shouting: "What did I say! Don't worry about whether the prince is angry or why he is angry, he will definitely send Ye Ruoyan back anyway! Give me money!"

Under the pressure of the princess, the servant of Anping Palace reluctantly took out a copper coin.

This copper coin is not much, but it represents their dignity as gossipmongers in the palace!
They don't even understand the entanglement between the prince and Ye Ruoyan as thoroughly as the princess does. What a shame!
I didn't expect that the prince was clearly displeased with Ye Ruoyan just now but he could still easily change his mind for Ye Ruoyan. The concubine of the Ye family is very resourceful!

To a certain extent, the ones who are most sensitive to their master's emotions are the servants in the palace.

The deadly movements in Anping Palace were all seen by the secret guards from various forces guarding Ye Jinshu.

The emperor's secret guards were thinking about how they should report to the emperor about the princess making fun of the prince so as not to hurt the emperor's face. After all, everyone knew that the emperor was obsessed with the prince.

The queen's secret guards were thinking about how they should report to the queen that her daughter-in-law was making fun of the relationship between her future husband and her half sister.

The secret guards around the prince were thinking whether they should tell the prince that the princess was watching from a distance and had set up a gambling game.

The Ye family's secret guards were thinking about what they should do to prevent the secret guards from other forces from leaking information.

While the secret guards were brainstorming, Ye Jinshu seemed to have sensed something and said to the empty space, "Don't worry about me, just do what you need to do."

So, that night, Ye Jinshu's gambling game was brought to the desks of several dignitaries.
