Loyang Jin

Everyone was silent.

There was a strange and eerie silence.

I don't know how long it took, but the emperor's grandson finally opened his mouth: "Ping Shen."

The voice was flat, and there was no hint of happiness or displeasure. It's just that the voice is slightly lower than usual.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Ling Jingshu also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thanked her, and stood up straight.

Maintaining the same posture is extremely tiring. My whole body aches, my arms are sore, and my legs are numb. However, it is inconvenient to show it in front of everyone, let alone rub your arms and move your hands and feet.

Imperial Physician Wei suddenly took a step forward and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I have to go into the study to take pulse for His Highness, so I won't stay with you."

The originally awkward atmosphere softened because of Dr. Wei's gentle and melodious voice.

The emperor's grandson hummed expressionlessly.

Imperial Physician Wei led the medicine boy Tiandong towards the study. As he passed by Ling Jingshu, he said casually: "Miss Ling Jiu, take Mr. Ling to the guest room to wait. I will be here in about half an hour."

Ling Jingshu responded with a smile: "Yes, thank you, Imperial Doctor Wei."

The bright smile fell in the eyes of the emperor's grandson, which was inexplicably dazzling.

The emperor's grandson pursed his thin lips, but said nothing.

Seeing the emperor's grandson's expression of concern, Miss Ye stepped forward to leave with some trepidation: "Your Highness, I will lead Miss Ling Jiu and the others to the guest room first."

The emperor's grandson hummed again expressionlessly, his eyes quickly passed over Ling Jingshu's face, then he moved away indifferently, and walked away first.

Wang Tong and the servants on the side did not dare to neglect and hurriedly followed him.

…

As soon as the emperor's grandson left, the tightness in his chest that was almost breathless disappeared immediately.

Ling Jingyan took a deep breath and quietly held Ling Jingshu's hand.

Ling Jingshu's palms were slightly wet. I don’t know if it’s the raindrops on my palms or the cold sweat just now.

Ling Jingyan's palms were even more wet. She lowered her voice and sighed with lingering fear: "Ah Shu, you really scared me to death just now."

Ling Jingshu laughed dumbly: "I am the one who makes His Highness the Grand Sun unhappy. What are you afraid of?"

Ling Jingyan rolled her eyes at Ling Jingshu dissatisfiedly: "Of course I'm afraid that His Highness the Grand Sun will blame you!"

Before Ling Jingshu could be moved, Ling Jingyan continued: "Today we are here together, we are grasshoppers on the same rope. If you are unlucky, we will definitely be affected by you, and we may be kicked out immediately. It’s the Prince’s Mansion.”

Ling Jingshu: "..."

Ling Jingshu was so full of thoughts that she didn't know what to say for a moment. After a while, she said, "I'm sorry for scaring you."

"It's not that scary." Ling Jingyan murmured in a low voice: "It's just that my heart is in my throat, and I dare not relax until now."

Ms. Ye's ears were very sensitive, and the whispers of the two girls could not escape her ears. However, she just pretended not to hear and quickly led everyone into the guest room in the courtyard.

"Please wait here for a moment. I have to go back to the Crown Princess, so I won't be accompanying you any longer." After what happened just now, Ms. Ye put away her arrogance and became more polite in her words.

Dare to confront the emperor's grandson head-on. If nothing else, his courage and courage are enough to make people look at him in a new light.

Mrs. Jiang hurriedly responded: "Ms. Ye just goes back to resume her duties. We can just wait here."

…

After Ms. Ye left, Mrs. Jiang immediately looked at Ling Jingshu and asked with concern: "Ah Shu, are you okay?"

Ling Jingshu pretended to smile calmly and said, "It's nothing, just a little cold sweat on her palms."

Jiang was dumbfounded and wanted to say something, but looking at Ling Jingshu's calm face, she suddenly felt that there was nothing more to say.

Ling Jingshu knew what she was doing, and she skillfully grasped the right balance, making her position clear without falling out with the emperor's grandson.

What else is there to say?

"Ah Shu," Ling Xiao fumbled and held Ling Jingshu's cold hand, tears quickly soaking the gauze: "You always suffer because of me. I can't treat my eyes. Let's leave now."

Ling Jingshu was startled and quickly comforted her in a low voice: "Axiao, don't blame yourself. What happened today has nothing to do with you. I did it on purpose."

Ling Xiao sniffed, his voice choked with sobs: "Do you want to cut off the relationship with His Highness the Grand Sun?"

As expected of a biological brother and sister, they had a clear understanding of each other, and they could guess Ling Jingshu's thoughts almost immediately.

Ling Jingshu did not hide it: "Yes, I do have this idea. We came here to ask for help, and we came under the banner of His Highness. The Crown Princess will definitely become suspicious and misunderstand what my intentions are towards His Highness. I have to Make your position clear earlier to prevent the Crown Princess from continuing to misunderstand."

This misunderstanding is very detrimental to her.

If the Crown Princess is prejudiced against her, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the future. Therefore, she would rather take the risk of offending the emperor's grandson and make her attitude clear.

Miss Ye is so smart and transparent that when she returns to her hometown, she will report the scene just now to the Crown Princess.

…

"...His Royal Highness Taisun was so kind, but he didn't expect that Miss Ling Jiu didn't appreciate it, and even said it on the spot. If Dr. Wei cured Mr. Ling, they would do their best to show his kindness. repay."

"His Highness's face changed at that time. Later, Miss Ling Jiu bowed and apologized. His Highness remained silent, and Miss Ling Jiu never got up."

Ms. Ye told everything that happened before.

The Crown Princess frowned slightly and her voice deepened: "Then what?"

Miss Ye heard the displeasure in the Crown Princess's voice, and felt trembling in her heart. She bowed her head and replied: "After a while, Your Highness allowed Miss Ling Jiu to get back on her feet. Later, Imperial Physician Wei entered the study, and His Highness the Grand Sun also left. Servant Then he led Miss Ling Jiu and the others into the guest room."

The Crown Princess said nothing, her eyes flickering.

After a long time, the Crown Princess slowly opened her mouth and asked: "In your opinion, what is the purpose of Miss Ling Jiu doing this?"

Isn't this intention obvious?

The Crown Princess was on guard, as Miss Ling Jiu had no intention of trying to follow a dragon or a phoenix. This is to make a statement!

Official Ye knew it well, but she didn't dare to say it out loud: "I'm stupid and can't guess it."

The Crown Princess glanced at Ms. Ye and snorted softly: "You are a crystal-bellied and exquisite heart, how could you not guess it? I don't dare to say it clearly, for fear that I will not be happy after hearing it!"

Ms. Ye had served the Crown Princess for several years and was very familiar with the Crown Princess's temper. She didn't dare to argue when she heard the words, so she acquiesced.

The princess' expression changed.

After a long time, he said calmly: "What exactly happened, I can't tell just based on this incident. It's not too late to observe it in the future."
