Loyang Jin

Princess Changping was full of thoughts. He didn't speak a word along the way, keeping a calm and pretty face.

Ling Jingshu led the way and soon arrived at the Peony Room.

Without looking back, Princess Changping ordered the maids behind her: "You guys should step aside first. You are not allowed to approach the peony room even half a step without my summons." After thinking about it, she added: "Also, no idle chatter is allowed. People are waiting to get closer.”

Several palace maids agreed in unison, and quickly retreated to guard several intersections.

Princess Changping often went in and out of the Jiaofang Palace and was no stranger to the Peony Room. After looking at it for a while, she smiled and praised: "It is really suitable for you to take care of this Peony Room. This year's peonies are particularly beautiful, which is far better than ever." In previous years!”

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness Princess." Ling Jingshu responded humbly: "When I was in the boudoir, I liked to plant flowers and grass. When I joined the Jiaofang Palace as an errand, I was honored by the Empress and gave me the Peony Room. How could I not do my best? Try your best."

Princess Changping was scolded just now. When she mentioned Empress Xu, she still felt a little angry. She snorted and said, "Okay, there's no one else here, just the two of us. You don't have to say these things against your will."

"You are living a good life as a noble daughter in the Ling family, with no worries about food and clothing. With just one word from my mother, you will be summoned into the palace as an errand. The female official sounds like she has a better reputation, and she is not just a slave to serve others."

Ling Jingshu: "..."

Ling Jingshu did not expect Princess Changping to be so outspoken. She neither nodded in agreement nor denied it against her will, so she simply remained silent.

Princess Changping saw that Ling Jingshu acquiesced. Instead of being angry, she relaxed her brows and smiled: "I was right about you. You are much better than those people who wear masks all day long and only flatter people. To be honest, I am today I'm in a bad mood, and I'm here to talk to you to relieve my boredom. If you were just obedient and had no opinion, I would have turned around and left."

Ling Jingshu vaguely guessed what Princess Changping would say, her eyes flashed slightly, and she said with a smile: "Your Highness the Princess has something to say, but it doesn't matter. I can't help Your Highness the Princess, but I can at least be a listener. What Your Highness said today, The slave will never mention it to anyone."

There was a smile in Princess Changping's eyes: "Your temper is quite to my liking. It's a pity that the Queen Mother has already summoned you to the palace. Otherwise, I would have definitely summoned you to the Princess's Mansion to accompany me."

...As expected of a mother and daughter! He speaks and acts in the same style, with a self-centered aura!

Ling Jingshu was stunned, but a helpless and apologetic smile appeared on her face: "Your Highness, please stop making fun of me."

Princess Changping held back her words and had no intention of joking. She frowned and sighed: "When others look at me, they must think that I was born with a noble status and a happy and worry-free life. In fact, I was born into a royal family and was born into a princess. Many helpless places.”

"Take my marriage as an example. Back then, my mother insisted on choosing a man from the Xu family to be my consort. That Xu Qiansheng was mediocre and stupid, and I felt disgusted when I looked at him. He was not worthy of me. Unfortunately, my mother insisted on this, and I couldn't resist. I had no choice but to marry him humiliatingly."

Ling Jingshu echoed a few words casually, but secretly sneered in her heart.

Princess Changping was dissatisfied with her consort. She lived alone in the princess's mansion, kept a male pet all day long, indulged in wanton entertainment, and lived a luxurious life. Such debauchery and willfulness would be unthinkable for an ordinary boudoir daughter.

Just like this, Princess Changping has the nerve to complain and complain?

"I want to make peace with Xu Qian!" Princess Changping suddenly said something unexpected!

Ling Jingshu didn't need to pretend, she was also surprised: "Your Highness, you can't say such things casually."

Princess Changping snorted and said with a gloomy face: "I have had this idea for a long time, and I didn't just say it casually. At the beginning of the year, when I went to the palace to pay my respects, I told my mother about this, and she got angry and scolded me. I thought to myself, let the queen be mentally prepared before mentioning it in a few months, and the queen might nod in agreement."

"Unexpectedly, when I entered the palace today, as soon as I mentioned this topic, my mother became furious. She also threw the tea bowl in her hand at my feet."

The more Princess Changping talked, the more angrily she became, filled with grievances. She pointed at the slight marks on the skirt and said, "Look, my newly made skirt has been splashed with tea."

"Your Highness, please don't be angry. Please listen to what I have to say." Ling Jingshu considered her words and comforted her gently:

"Reconciliation is by no means a trivial matter. Her Royal Highness the Princess has a distinguished status, and Prince Consort Xu is the Queen's direct nephew. Such a big matter must be treated with caution."

"The Queen's rage was caused by a moment of anger. The Queen must be aware of His Highness's plight. Otherwise, she would not have allowed Her Highness to live alone in the Princess's mansion."

This is true.

Although the queen mother often scolded her on weekdays, she never really controlled her temper. Otherwise, how could she have such a happy and happy life!

The expression on Princess Changping's face softened a little.

Ling Jingshu said calmly: "Her Royal Highness lives in the princess's mansion, and spends less time with her husband-in-law and more separation. With Xu's husband-in-law's temperament, he would not dare to interfere with his highness's life even if he thought about it. If this is the case, why does your highness have to reconcile? "

A hint of girlish shyness flashed across Princess Changping's face. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well, I won't hide it from you. I didn't insist on divorce before because I didn't meet a man I liked, so I just muddle along like this." . But now, I already have someone I like. I want to call him my consort! So, I must make peace with Xu Qian!"

The one you like?

Ling Jingshu's eyes flashed with sarcasm, but there was a curious look on her face: "I wonder who is that lucky man? How can he win His Highness's favor?"

Princess Changping's eyes flashed with excitement: "You are also familiar with that man. He is your direct cousin Lu Hong!"

Sure enough!

Lu Hong hooked up with Princess Changping in his previous life. In this life, he came to the capital early, but the ending was still the same.

Anger and resentment welled up in Ling Jingshu's heart, and she felt sour for herself in her previous life, who had been stupidly waiting for her husband to return.

Seeing that Ling Jingshu remained silent, Princess Changping looked over in surprise: "Why don't you speak? Are you too surprised?"

This is not the time to be distracted. Princess Changping must be dealt with first.

Ling Jingshu quickly came to her senses and said with an apologetic smile: "Yes, when I heard this, I was really surprised."

After a pause, he smiled and said, "However, if you think about it carefully, cousin Lu is young, talented, handsome, gentle, and graceful. He and Her Royal Highness are indeed a perfect match."
