"Sister, did I say the wrong thing?" Ling'er was also keenly aware of the trace of sorrow and sorrow in Qingyun's eyebrows and suddenly felt at a loss.

Before Qingyun could speak, a slightly surprised voice suddenly came: "Ling'er, why are you here?"

Not far behind him, Liang Siyuan was looking at Ling'er standing next to Qingyun with a surprised expression, while Bai Ningshuang's gloomy light was hidden behind the surprise.

Ling'er quickly lowered her head and tried to escape. Qingyun understood her intention and quickly grabbed her arm with her back to Liang Siyuan. At the same time, she told her in a secret voice: If you leave now, aren't you just asking for it? ?Then he said to Liang Siyuan: "Master, do you know this little thief?"

"What little thief?" Liang Siyuan raised his eyebrows in confusion.

Qingyun said in a tepid voice: "She and a few beggars stole my money bag just now. We chased her for several streets and finally caught up with her here. Unfortunately, the money bag is not on her. Since the young master I know her, so I will compensate my losses on her behalf, a total of one hundred and sixty-five taels." After saying that, he reached out to Liang Siyuan to ask for money.

"Nonsense!" Liang Siyuan reprimanded in a deep voice: "She is the princess of the royal palace, how could she steal your wallet? What crime should you be guilty of if you dare to slander the princess of the dynasty?"

"She is the princess of Prince Zhan's Mansion?"

"Absolutely true!"

Qing Yun was shocked at first, then straightened her body to face Liang Siyuan, looked at it carefully and said: "It turns out that the princess of Zhan Prince's Mansion is like this, and she openly steals on the street. It's really better to see it than to see it." Then. Looking at Liang Siyuan: "Master, are you sure she is really the princess of Prince Zhan's Mansion?"

Looking at the little boy who was wearing rags, with messy hair, and a small face with streaks of gray and white, his true face could not be seen at all, biting his white lips, his eyes were as timid as a deer, Liang Siyuan's expression After a pause, his lips moved, but no sound came out.

Taking the silk handkerchief from Mo Xuan and wiping away the dirt on Ling'er's face, revealing a sallow and thin face, Qingyun said suspiciously: "He is clearly a little boy, and he doesn't look like the pampered princess of Prince Zhan's palace. Well."

"This..." Liang Siyuan breathed out.

He had only seen the side view just now. Who would have thought that the white cheeks he saw were actually dirt on the little boy's face. Although his stature was very similar to Ling'er's, he looked like he was a *underdeveloped* boy. The little boy doesn't have the slightest bit of a daughter's attitude.

The most important thing is that Ling'er has been deeply influenced and taught by the King of War since she was a child. She has always been free and bold by nature, and she is not so timid at all even when facing her father, queen and mother.

Could it be that he recognized the wrong person?

"Young Master" saw the hesitation in Liang Siyuan's eyes, and a devilish smile flashed across Qingyun's lips: "Since Young Master knows her, I will hand her over to you." She felt that Ling'er's body suddenly became stiff, Qingyun held her hand without leaving any trace: "But she stole my silver, and I asked the young master to compensate me on her behalf. Otherwise, we will hand her over to the local government."

Liang Siyuan suddenly choked up. Just now he was so sure that the little boy was the princess of the Zhan Prince's Mansion. If he denies it now, wouldn't it be detrimental to his prince's face? Anyway, it's only a mere one hundred taels of silver. He can still afford it. Just now She was about to tell the accompanying guards to pay, but she heard Bai Ningshuang next to her ask: "This girl's accent doesn't sound like she's from her native country, right?"

"The Crown Princess is really smart as ice and snow." Qing Yun admitted generously: "We are from the Jin State on our way to Changshan. It happened to be the River Lantern Festival here, so we stayed here to join in the fun out of curiosity. May I ask the Crown Princess, does your country not allow people from other countries? Are you participating in the River Lantern Festival? And the princess’s accent doesn’t sound like someone from Liang Guo?”

Bai Ningshuang's eyes darkened when she heard this, then she blinked and regained her composure without answering and asked: "I wonder where you are planning to go?"

"Go where you want to go."

"Where exactly? What are you going to do?"

"What does the Crown Princess mean by this? This is our private matter. There is no need to tell the Crown Princess, right? And the Crown Princess has no right to interfere." Qing Yun's tone was neither salty nor cool.

"How outrageous!" Bai Ningshuang was furious: "You can't wait for a mere commoner. Instead of kneeling down and saluting when meeting the prince and me, you actually dare to talk to me like this. You are simply committing a crime and do not know how to live or die! In my opinion, you guys They are obviously spies sent by the Jin Kingdom, and they want to steal the country's secrets with evil intentions. Come and capture these Jin spies for me!"

She is the Crown Princess of the Liang Kingdom, and she is also the future empress of the world. Everyone who sees her is respectful and respectful, fearing to offend her and be punished.

Unexpectedly, these low-level untouchables dared to challenge her authority and spread the word. How would she save her face? How would she behave like a mother to the world in the future?

"Who dares!" Mo Xuan and the other two people almost simultaneously ducked to protect Qing Yun, their bodies filled with murderous aura. They were so shocked that the guards who had gathered around them stopped in their tracks and stared at the three of them with highly alert expressions.

Qingyun held Ling'er's hand and looked at Bai Ningshuang quietly, saying with indifference and ridicule: "The majestic quasi-Crown Princess of Liang Kingdom, just because I didn't kneel down to salute and didn't want to tell you my private affairs. You are falsely accusing us of being spies sent by the Jin State. You really want to incriminate yourself. I am waiting to see you with admiration! If this spreads out, it will damage the reputation of the potential princess. It will make people say that the Liang royal family is bullying others. The stakes are high.

Although we are just ordinary people, our emperor and the ninth princess have always loved the people like their own children. If our emperor and the ninth princess knew that our innocent people were wrongly killed in the Liang Kingdom, they would naturally not sit idly by and ignore it. They would definitely seek redress from the emperor of Liang when the time comes. If you want to speak out, it could even lead to a military confrontation between the two countries. The consequences are not something that the quasi-Crown Princess and Prince Rong's Palace can bear!

What's more, the Crown Prince didn't say anything, but you, the quasi-Crown Princess who has not yet become a real Crown Princess, actually overstepped your authority and gave orders. Can we understand that the quasi-Crown Princess has more power than the Crown Prince?

If this is the case, the quasi-Crown Princess would be the first person to do so since ancient times."

"You..." Bai Ningshuang was so angry that she was shaking all over, staring at Qingyun with eyes that wanted to eat her alive.

Bai Ningshuang was speechless when she saw Qingyun's refutation with just a few words. Ling'er's eyes were shining brightly, and she felt relieved and happy.

Bai Ningshuang is the legitimate daughter of Prince Rong and is about to become the crown prince. She pretends to be dignified and virtuous on the surface, but because she is close to the prince, she secretly plots against her and other ladies from famous families. After saying a word or looking at the prince one more time, his reputation would be ruined, or he would die or be disabled. However, the prince blindly believed in Bai Ningshuang, doted on her, and did not listen to her advice at all, thus further fueling Bai Ningshuang's arrogance. .

Now it is really satisfying to see Bai Ningshuang deflated. Her admiration for Qingyun is like the endless stream of the Imma River. At the same time, she is lucky to have met Qingyun, her sister. If her sister is willing to come forward, maybe the dilemma she is facing can be solved. .

Liang Siyuan, who originally stood aside and planned to watch, saw that the people around him had gathered around, talking in low voices, or pointing at Bai Ningshuang. Apparently they had heard what Qingyun said, so everyone The expressions were full of surprise and condemnation.

He knew that if he continued to allow the situation to develop, he and Bai Ningshuang would be disgraced. King Sui had been eyeing him and trying to seize his position as prince. Once this matter reached the ears of his father, he would lose the qualification to inherit the throne.

At this time, Liang Siyuan regretted agreeing to Bai Ningshuang to come to Changshan to watch the River Lantern Festival. He regretted not seeing clearly and mistaking the little boy for Ling'er. He regretted not stopping Bai Ningshuang in time, which made things worse and worse.

However, Liang Siyuan was established as the prince as soon as he was born, and was taught by Emperor Liang himself. His mind and adaptability were naturally extraordinary, so he motioned the guards to retreat with his eyes, and reminded Bai Ningshuang to pay attention to her image, while smiling at Qingyun and the others. The person said: "I and Ningshuang think that you have extraordinary bearings and want to get acquainted with them. Unexpectedly, we have misunderstood you. Please forgive me."

"It's rare that the prince understands the righteousness, and we are not narrow-minded people. Since it is a misunderstanding, we will not care about it. But since we have different ways and do not seek each other, there is no need for the prince and I to get acquainted." He said meaningfully. Looking at Bai Ningshuang, who had unwillingness and anger in her eyes, Qingyun said calmly: "If nothing happens, I'll leave later." After saying that, she held Ling'er's hand and turned around to leave.

Mo Xuan and three others followed closely behind.

Seeing Qingyun and others leaving, the surrounding people also dispersed, but their previous good impression of the Crown Princess was gone.

Looking at Qing Yun's leaving Qing Ran's back, Liang Siyuan always felt that he had seen her before, and for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen her before. In a blink of an eye, he happened to see the unwillingness and anger in Bai Ningshuang's eyes, and said calmly and softly: "Ning Ningshuang" Shuang, you are the quasi-princess of this palace and have a noble status, so why bother with a few commoners."

The anger and unwillingness in Bai Ningshuang's eyes instantly disappeared, and she looked sideways at Liang Siyuan with red eyes: "I am also here for the prince. Those people are definitely extraordinary people at first glance. If they can be persuaded to be loyal to the prince, the prince will be even more powerful. Now King Sui Overtly and covertly, I solicited followers and made it clear that I wanted to seize the crown prince's position. If the crown prince's status was unstable, I would not be able to become the crown princess. However, I was clumsy in speech and speech. Not only could I not retain those talents for the prince, They also misunderstood my thoughts, and I feel really guilty."

"I know that Ningshuang has good intentions, but some people cannot force certain things, otherwise it will be counterproductive. Do you understand?" Liang Siyuan stared directly into Bai Ningshuang's eyes: "I and you are about to become husband and wife, and we are dependent on each other for blessings and misfortunes. What do you think of Ningshuang?" I will always keep my affection in my heart and will never let you down."

It was obviously an intoxicating word of love, but Bai Ningshuang stiffened involuntarily, especially Liang Siyuan's deep eyes that could not see the content clearly, which made her heart tremble inexplicably, and crystal tears overflowed from her reddish eyes.
