On the morning of the second day, Ling'er saw that the crown prince had cut a wound on his own hand, and then smeared red blood on the handkerchief.
"Your Highness?" Ling'er's face became even redder. She looked at the exceptionally beautiful crown prince and truly hoped to be protected by him. However, to her disappointment, Night Emperor Yan only looked at her once, then said goodbye. He left.
Ling'er looked at the man's back, then looked at her own bed. A lonely smile appeared on her face. Your Highness, it's really cruel.
She treated her so gently, and then she left with such indifference.
Perhaps, the reason I came here last night was because of that woman?
But what did it matter? She was not Shangguan Yun, so she didn't ask for too much. What she wanted was only to be safe and to be able to see him occasionally, and that was enough.
As for that woman, as long as Shangguan Yun dealt with her, it would be fine. If that woman died, His Highness would definitely take a fancy to her and hate Shangguan Yun. That woman was not dead, and His Highness must also be unhappy with Shangguan Yun's attitude towards that woman.
Sooner or later, her highness would be hers.
As she thought about it, a trace of complacency appeared on Ling'er's face.
At the same time, in Shangguan Yun's room. At this moment, a terrifying battle broke out. To be more accurate, it should be Shangguan Yun's fault.
Inside the room, Shangguan Yun constantly knocked at the Night King's Ze who was hugging her, crying and laughing. In the end, she even squeezed his neck as if she was going to strangle him to death.
And Ye Huangze, he could only stare at this scene with a smile on his face. His gaze was gentle yet strange as well.
He smiled as he held the girl in his arms and whispered into her ear, "Only I would like Sister Yun's appearance, right?"
"Bastard!" "Bastard!" Shangguan Yun was so angry that he began to cry. The golden sweater he was wearing was beginning to show signs of wrinkles. The Night Emperor looked at her, then tidied up her clothes.
"Although Brother Crown Prince came out from that Yun'er's room, Sister Yun doesn't need to be this upset, right? I believe that Sister Yun has a lot of ways to kill a young maid. "
"But …" Shangguan Yun continued crying.
"Sister Yun, do you want me to help you?" Ye Huangze looked at her gently. Thinking of how he had been called out from the palace so early in the morning, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Ah Ze, I can't tell my family about my situation, so, only you can help me."
"Eh? What a pity. I'm really looking forward to seeing Sister Yun's brother here. You have to know, big sister Yun's brother is the only person that Crown Prince has respect for. " The Night Emperor said with a smile.
"Brother, his relationship with me is not good. Most of the people in the Shangguan family also only cared about themselves. If they were to know that I am currently not even as good as a maid sent by the empress of the crown prince's household, they would definitely go crazy with rage. "
Shangguan Yun covered her face silently as she said that. That helpless look of his caused the smile on the Night King's face to deepen.
"Forget it, Sister Yun only needs to rely on me. This way, no one will make Sister Yun sad. " The tone of Ye Huangze's voice was gentle, but it carried a hint of bewitching. So much so that Shangguan Yun had forgotten that it was the painting of the Night King's Ze that had allowed the crown prince to find Shui Ruo.
"Alright, Sister Yun, it's time for me to leave. Will that woman come to serve tea to her sister later? If elder sister really wanted to defeat that young maid, the method was actually very simple. Everyone will have a weakness, and if big sister can find that little servant girl's weakness, I do not need my help to do so. "
After saying this, he pushed open the door and left.
As for Shangguan Yun, she blankly sat in the room. Looking at the room that was in a mess, she dried her tears and said towards the outside, "Men, go and invite the Spirit Side Fei."
Shangguan Yun summoned, and Ling'er came quickly. When Ling'er walked into the room complacently, she saw a wretched appearance.
This made Ling'er really happy. "Yo, big sister, you're so angry? Tsk tsk, if I had known, I would have let Big Sister come down here last night to prevent you from feeling this sad. "
"Pack these for me." Shangguan Yun's voice was cold, no longer the excitement of yesterday.
Hearing that, Ling'er was startled, and then said unhappily: "Why? "I'm a side concubine after all. Isn't it too much of a shame for my sister to do this to me?"
"Unjustifiable?" Shangguan Yun smiled, she slowly stood up and said: "This concubine is the Crown Prince's consort, and you are just a side concubine. Whatever this concubine wants you to do, you can do it. "Okay, I won't waste any more words with you. Go and clean up the mess, or else, I'll kill you."
Shangguan Yun's tone was cold. She walked out of the room after saying that.
Ling'er, on the other hand, was so furious that she stomped her feet when she saw the bedraggled scene in front of her.
Sometimes, people were helpless. No matter how displeased they were, no matter how unwilling they were, they still had to do it in the end. It was just like how Ling'er did not want to do these things in her heart, but ultimately could not go against Shangguan Yun's wishes.
Shangguan Yun was the main imperial concubine, while she was the side concubine. Shangguan Yun had the Shangguan Family backing her, but she would only become the empress's pawn.
The difference between the two was simply too great. Right now, the only way was to make His Highness fall in love with her. However, it did not seem possible.
As Ling'er thought about it, she started to feel disgusted with the water.
"Are you done packing?" When Ling'er arrived at the front hall of the Crown Princess's courtyard, she put down her teacup and asked.
"Yes, chenqie has finished packing." Ling'er whispered.
"Humph!" A servant was still a servant. Even if they were married and flew up to the branch, it would not change the servant's personality. In this concubine's opinion, you're not really suited to be a secondary wife, but instead, it's more suitable for you to go back and be a palace maid. "
Shangguan Yun said mockingly.
Hearing this, Ling'er's face paled, but she did not panic. She looked at Shangguan Yun and said, "Elder sister is right, but unfortunately, chenqie is blessed by the Empress to be unable to continue being a palace maid. Perhaps, there are some people in this world who are born to be doted on. It's like how your big sister didn't manage to obtain the crown prince's marriage agreement, while your concubine received it. "
After Ling'er finished speaking, her smile was like a flower.
The Crown Princess nearly smashed the tea cup when she heard that. However, she suddenly recalled what Ye Huangze had told her earlier, so she could only endure.
She looked at Ling'er, her expression slightly distorted as she said, "Ling'er, you have to know that no one is perfect, and you are the same. "You better pray that your weakness does not fall into my hands. Otherwise, I will definitely kill you."
"Elder sister, is this a threat?" Ling'er's smile grew even more proud. "Ling'er has never had a father or mother since she was young. Her only weakness is the empress. What does elder sister think you can do to me?"
At the mention of the Queen, Shangguan Yun's expression changed. But at this time, Ling'er continued, "Elder sister, rather than having the time to care about my matters, why don't you care about your own matters? "Just now, I saw His Highness the Seventh Prince leave his sister's room."
"So what?" Shangguan Yun was unusually calm.
"Not much. However, since ancient times, men and women can't sit in the same place when they're seven years old. Even though elder sister and the Seventh Prince are already this old, they're still very close. This really makes one feel suspicious. "
As she spoke, Ling'er looked at Shangguan Yun. Seeing that she was not flustered, she couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart. Could it be that she really had nothing to do with Prince Ye?
But what was the prince doing here in the morning?
Ling'er could not make up her mind.
"Alright, you've come here today as well. You can scram now." Shangguan Yun's tone was cold, forget it. He turned around and left.
Since the host had already left, Ling'er could not stay here any longer and watched Shangguan Yun's back. A trace of doubt arose in Ling'er's heart. How in the world was he supposed to move this woman?
Although she had never thought of moving to Shangguan Yun to be the Crown Prince's consort, if it was another woman, perhaps her life would have been easier.
Sooner or later, the Crown Prince would be her.
Ling'er's calculations were very good, but she had forgotten that there were some things that she could not obtain just by thinking about them.
In the afternoon, Shangguan Yun, Ling'er, and Shui Long were gathered together.
Shangguan Yun looked at Shui Ruo, and revealed a friendly smile on her face, "Little sister, I lost my mind yesterday and let little sister be humiliated. I am truly sorry."
Did the sun come out over there? Shui Ruo was curious, but he did not say anything. He just smiled and said: "Crown Princess, you don't need to worry."
"Little sister, do you know that this New Year's Eve is near and the palace will hold a family banquet?"
"I've heard of it." Shui laughed leisurely.
"Little sister, I would like to invite your family to join us for a feast this year. How about that?"
Shangguan Yun meant well, but Shui Long hesitated upon hearing this. The people of the Shui family don't have a good reputation in front of the royal family.
"Sister, you can rest assured. With sister here, no one will dare to do anything to sister's family."
"In that case, thank you." If he could attend the royal family's banquet, it would only benefit the Shui family. Since the Crown Princess wanted to, she could go with the flow. Shui Ruo thought to himself as he revealed a friendly smile.
As soon as Shangguan Yun said that, Ling'er's expression changed. It seemed that the Crown Princess was here to curry favor with him.
"Oh right, little sister, I've been ordered to organize the palace banquet recently. Why don't you come with me, little sister?"
"Uh, okay." Shui Ruo looked at the princess consort in surprise, and then listened to her.
"Sister heard from the Seventh Prince that sister's family is in business, and our royal family has a fixed location to purchase it from. How about we go to Sister's family's shop this year?" Shangguan Yun's tone was light, and Shui Ruo was half happy and half worried.
It seemed that Shangguan Yun knew something, and this was a good thing for the Shui family. But at the same time, there was also risk. If someone told the truth about the Shui family, the emperor would definitely, for the sake of the royal family, send the family to eternal damnation.
Even so, the Shui family still needed this chance.
Damn it! How did she forget that Shangguan Yun would find out about her?
This woman was a threat.
"Little sister, are you not willing?" Shangguan Yun looked at Shui Long who was in a dilemma, and felt quite proud of herself.
God knows how much preparation she had made for the design of the water. And now, it was finally here.
"Since elder sister has good intentions, then I won't be disrespectful." Shui Yuehan's attitude was serene, but he was still very excited.
The conversation between the two of them caused Ling'er, who was off to the side, to feel a sense of crisis.
If Shangguan Yun's relationship with Shui grew better, then her position would be in danger.
No, he had to think of a way!
The palace banquet at noon did not last long. Soon, it was over. When it was over, Shui Ruo returned to his room.
However, in the afternoon, there was an unexpected guest in Shui Yuehan's room.
Suiyun!
The sudden appearance of Suiyun was something that Shui Ruo did not expect. Firstly, the crown prince's residence was heavily guarded, and secondly, how did the branch family find out where she was? Thirdly, Suiyun was simply too bizarre! He came over the wall! This was something she absolutely could believe.
However, no matter how suspicious she was, Shui Ruo still maintained a harmless smile as he looked at Suiyun. "Isn't this Young Master Suiyun? "Long time no see."
Suiyun smiled at Shui Long's harmless attitude and asked, "Really? Actually, they just met not too long ago. However, Suiyun truly did not expect that the eldest miss of the Shui family would appear here. How about it? Is the Crown Prince nice to the young miss? "
"Very well, don't worry. On the other hand, why are you here? "
"Naturally, I'm here to find you." Suiyun had a serious expression. When Shui Long heard this, he became even more confused.
Looking for her? Why?
Is this man crazy?
"Eldest Miss, do you know the situation of Shui Family recently?" Suiyun looked at the water and asked.
"Very well?" Water was suspicious.
"Yes, it is indeed very good. However, if this goes on, the Shui Family will be destroyed. " Suiyun's attitude was serious.
"What do you mean?" The water flowed slowly, not understanding.
"The current development of the Shui family is too frothy. If we want the clan to recover, we must do it bit by bit. But now, the development of the Shui family had frightened everyone. It had gone too smoothly. If this continued, the Shui Family would not be able to withstand the setbacks. Eldest Miss, although your relationship with Suyun is not that good, Suiyun does not wish for the Shui family to be destroyed. Therefore, I ask Eldest Miss to make those who have helped you stop. Let the Shui Family recover on their own. "
Suiyun's attitude was serious. Shui Long smiled when he heard this.
