Loyang Jin

How could she not guess it?

Apart from Wei Yan, who else could be the one who has been paying attention to her and worried about her, and who can appeal to Wei Jieyu?

Since entering the palace, she has been cautious in everything, keeping a low profile and being patient. But trouble still came to the door automatically. She was wronged for no reason, but she couldn't defend herself.

She couldn't be cold-hearted to the Crown Princess who was deliberately making things difficult. She couldn't question the emperor's grandson who behaved recklessly. She could only endure it silently and wait for the rumors to subside.

She didn't expect that there was someone who cared about her secretly and did so much for her silently...

For such a silent and gentle affection, for such a man who silently protects her, even a hard-hearted person would find it hard not to be moved!

Ling Jingshu's nose was slightly sour, and the warm liquid in the corners of her eyes was ready to move.

Wei Jieyu's voice rang in her ears: "Ah Shu, what happened this time was because Ayan begged me in private, so I did this. Moreover, he also specially told me not to let you know at this time. I already promised him, but I didn’t expect you to be so smart and guess it yourself.”

"When you meet Ayan in the future, you must not let him know what you already know. Otherwise, I don't know how to explain it to him."

Ling Jingshu sniffed and nodded vigorously: "Okay, I will pretend that I don't know anything about it. No matter what, I will never forget your kindness. If your Majesty has any assignments in the future, I will never refuse."

Wei Jieyu smiled meaningfully: "You don't have to worry about small things all the time. Speaking of which, I do have something I want to ask you privately. The reason why the Crown Princess deliberately made things difficult for you that day was because the Emperor's grandson fell in love with her. Is it because of you?”

Ling Jingshu was silent for a moment, then sighed: "To be honest, Your Majesty, His Highness Taisun and I met on the boat. His Highness Taisun also saved my life and helped us siblings. I am grateful to him from the bottom of my heart."

"I don't understand Qi Dafei's principles, and I have never had any thoughts of climbing high. Unfortunately, the Crown Princess was prejudiced against me from the beginning and disliked me. That day, the Grand Sun brought the Grand Princess into the palace. "I'd like to offer tea. It's probably because the grandson paid too much attention to me and the princess was unhappy, so she deliberately made things difficult for me and embarrassed me."

Everything was as expected by Wei Jieyu.

Wei Jieyu said tentatively: "So, Your Highness the Grand Sun is just wishful thinking. You have no intention of marrying into the Prince's Mansion?"

Ling Jingshu responded briefly.

Wei Jieyu was not completely reassured. Back then, had she ever thought that one day she would enter the palace and become a concubine? No matter how strong a person is, he can't compete with power.

If the emperor's grandson is determined to marry Ling Jingshu, Wei Yan will become a thorn in the emperor's side. By then, I don’t know how much trouble it will cause...

If Wei Yan was smart enough and calm enough, he should give up completely!

It's a pity that Wei Yan seems to have a gentle temperament, but in fact he is stubborn and stubborn. No one can persuade him to change his mind about what he has decided.

Thinking of this, Wei Jieyu couldn't help but sigh secretly, raised her head and glanced at the beautiful and calm girl, but she didn't know what she felt in her heart.

The two sat opposite each other, each with his own thoughts and silence.

After a long while, Ling Jingshu opened her mouth to break the silence: "Mother, I've been out for so long, it's time to go back."

Wei Jieyu cheered up and said with a smile: "You are on an errand now, so I can't keep you longer. When you have free time in the future, you might as well come to Lingbo Hall often."

…

After leaving Lingbo Hall, Ling Jingshu quickly put away her chaotic thoughts and returned to Jiaofang Hall as usual.

As soon as he stepped into Jiaofang Hall, he saw Luoyan walking towards him.

"Ah Shu, where have you been?" Luo Yan pretended to be casual and asked with a smile, "I rarely see you out and about!"

Ling Jingshu responded lightly: "I went to Lingbo Hall to pay my respects to Empress Jieyu."

Lingbo Palace?

Luoyan's eyes lit up, and he immediately came over with a smile, and asked in a low voice with great interest: "You should know what happened in Lingbo Palace a few days ago, right? When I go to Lingbo Palace today, is Empress Jieyu there? What did I say to you?”

Ling Jingshu said calmly: "I got to know Empress Jieyu before I entered the palace. Thanks to her, she never gave up and treated me very generously. I also heard about the Lingbo Palace, and I was afraid that your empress would be in a bad mood, so I went to talk to her specially. We chatted a few words. Isn’t it a good idea to bring up these troublesome things? It’s really inappropriate for Sister Luoyan to ask these questions.”

Luo Yan bumped into a nail that was neither soft nor hard, with a rather stern expression: "Look at my open mouth, I say whatever comes to my mind without even thinking about it. Ah Shu, I don't mean anything else, so don't angry."

Ling Jingshu usually looks gentle and good-tempered, but in fact she is not an easy person to mess with.

Luoyan tried several times openly and secretly, but failed to get any advantage.

Ling Jingshu twitched the corner of her lips: "Sister Luoyan is also saying what she means but she doesn't mean it. How could I be angry with my sister? If nothing happens, I will go to the Peony Room."

As soon as the peony room was mentioned, Luo Yan's eyes rolled again, and he pretended to smile affectionately: "By the way, the peonies should bloom in more than half a month. The Queen has already given instructions in advance for everyone to I’m preparing for a flower viewing feast.”

"I have long heard that you are good at growing peonies. This time, you have to make a big splash."

When he said the last sentence, there was a hint of sourness in his tone.

It turns out that she is in charge of the peony room. The maids cultivated new peonies, and then she brought them to Queen Xu. Every year after the flower viewing banquet, Queen Xu would give a large reward. She also really got a lot of benefits.

Unfortunately, this year's good luck was snatched away by Ling Jingshu.

Ling Jingshu glanced at Luo Yan with a smile but not a smile: "It doesn't matter if you want to be in the limelight or not, I'm just afraid that those peonies won't bloom well. When the time comes, the peonies of other ladies will be compared to those of other ladies, and the queen will lose her face. She will blame us slaves. Yes, everyone will inevitably suffer."

Intentionally or unintentionally, the word "we" is emphasized too much.

Luoyan's smile froze.

She was not stupid, and of course she understood what Ling Jingshu meant.

The two palace maids who were cultivating new peonies were detained by her privately, and now they are doing menial tasks such as cleaning. If the peonies in the peony room don't bloom well, Ling Jingshu can easily climb onto her body.

When the time comes, Ling Jingshu will be unlucky, and she won’t be able to forgive him!

Thinking of this, Luo Yan couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed.

She was really blinded by lard at that time, how could she come up with such a crooked idea?

Luoyan coughed and said flatteringly: "Ah Shu, if you are too busy, I have two people who are good at taking care of flowers and plants. I will ask them to help you..."

"Thank you very much for Sister Luoyan's kindness." Ling Jingshu responded politely: "However, Sister Luoyan is so busy, how can I have the nerve to ask for her help. I still don't need it!"

Luo Yan: "..."
