After the empress heard about Ling'er's death, she was not surprised. She only calmly replied, "I knew that this day would come, and Ling'er did not manage to obtain any fortune. In the end, she ended up like this."

"Then esteemed empress, where's Ling'er's corpse?" Inferior, a servant asked.

"Buried." The Queen played it down. Hearing this, that person left. However, when she left, the empress's expression changed.

She looked at the letter that Ling'er had left behind when she died. The only words that were written on it were the words "One must not live for life". When Shangguan Yun saw these four words, she immediately took them. She was suspecting that she had forced Ling'er to death.

However, even though it was overkill, it was more or less enough. If she hadn't said those things to Ling'er, she wouldn't have walked on this path.

But, Ling'er, don't blame me. If you don't, your future will be just as tragic. Rather than make your future miserable, it's better to end it now.

If you enter the palace in the future and truly become an imperial concubine, you will know how cruel this palace is and how naive you have always been. I just don't want you to walk this path.

The empress thought to herself as she looked at the piece of paper in her hand, tears welling up in her eyes.

Ling'er had been by her side for many years. Despite the viciousness in the empress's heart, she still couldn't help but cry when she faced the young maid that had followed her for so many years. After all, he had once nurtured her with his own blood and sweat.

Ling'er died. She died so cleanly and cleanly that she didn't even leave anything behind. However, Ling'er's death did not calm the crown prince's residence.

Not long after Ling'er's death, the Crown Princess decided to invite some of the young masters and mistresses to the Crown Prince's Palace for a banquet.

The banquet was already a sign of trouble. To hold a banquet in the Crown Prince's Palace, naturally, the Crown Prince's Palace would be extremely busy.

These days, not only the people from the Crown Prince's Palace, but also Bing-Er.

After everything had been arranged at the banquet, Shangguan Yun came to the carefree room.

"Why is the princess consort here?" "Hurry and sit down." Seeing the princess consort coming over, Shui Ruo hurriedly asked the princess consort to sit down.

When Shangguan Yun heard this, she said: "Don't treat me like that, I'm not some spoiled brat. Besides, I'm not that far from you. I'm here today to send you a post. Although this is a matter of our Crown Prince's Palace, I have a feeling that if we didn't invite you here, you wouldn't have come. That's why I'm here to send you off. "

Shangguan Yun's attitude returned to the polite way it was when they first met. Shui Ruo looked at the invitation, hesitated for a while, then put it away and said, "Thank you."

"Why are you being polite with me? Just remember to go. Alright, it's time for me to leave as well. If I return late, the birth control medicine would be cold. "

Shangguan Yun left as she spoke. From the moment he had arrived, it had only been a short period of time.

Shui You looked at the invitation in his hand and felt that there was a problem, but Shangguan Yun had personally sent it, so even if there were any problems, he could only go.

"Miss, this servant has finally finished. Ah yes, miss, do you know? I heard that the Crown Princess even invited the number one zither-player to help her enjoy the show. She was truly amazing. It was said that the number one zither master had a weird personality and would never play the zither for an official. In the end, the Crown Princess invited him. "

Bing-Er was a bit excited when Ye Xiao talked about the Crown Princess. She seemed to have become his idol for the past few days.

Shui Ruo looked at Bing'er and thought, "If you saw her hysterical, you wouldn't like her so much." However, the Crown Princess did have some tricks up her sleeve. Many times, she could only feel ashamed of her own inferiority.

Looking at Bing-Er, Shui Chao took a sip of tea and said, "Bing-Er, let me ask you, besides the banquet, does the Crown Princess have anything else to do?"

"No way. The Crown Princess has been busy these days. How could she have the time to do anything else?" However, if he must say so, it was probably because Young Master Shangguan had been visiting recently. Young Master Shangguan had been coming here almost every day recently. He didn't know if it was because he felt sorry for the Crown Princess.

After listening to Bing-Er, Shui Long laughed. Shangguan Han? No wonder he was able to invite the number one zither player.

In this world, if it was said that Shangguan Bing couldn't get him to move, then he would definitely be a dead man.

In this world, there was no one who didn't want to be on good terms with Shangguan Bing. After all, this person's medical skills were simply too great.

"Miss, what are you laughing at?" Bing-Er asked, looking at Shui Chou with a meaningful smile on his face.

Shui Long shook his head after hearing what he said, "It's nothing. I just understood a few things, that's all. You don't need to worry about me." Bing-Er, are you tired? What happened in the residence of the crown prince is very trivial, you have not done such a thing in our Shui Family. "

"Miss, this servant is not tired at all. Recently, the princess consort would always call servants over. She even apologized to the servant, saying what she had done to the servant before was because she was confused. "

Bing-Er smiled when she talked about the Crown Princess. Shui looked at Bing'er and shook his head helplessly.

This Bing'er really didn't hold a grudge. If it was her, she would have already killed the crown prince's consort or drugged her. Where would he keep her?

"Oh right, Miss, why did you receive the invitation as well?" Bing-Er asked as she looked at the invitation in Shui Ruo's hand.

"Ah, this? "The Crown Princess just sent it. She said she was afraid I wouldn't go." Shui Yuehan casually tossed the invitation aside as he spoke. Bing-Er quickly put away the invitation after seeing this. Then she said helplessly, "My lady, you really don't appreciate the kind intentions of my princess consort." "The Crown Princess sent the invitation. It means that she values the young lady."

Hearing Bing-Er call her 'princess consort', Shui Long shook his head helplessly and said, "Yes, yes, I know. "Bing-Er, you go down first."

"Yes, miss." Seeing that Shui Ruo didn't want to listen to her anymore, Bing'er understood and went down. After Bing-Er left, Shui Ruo finally sat up, looking energetic. He frowned as he looked at the empty room.

The Crown Princess … What the hell are you doing?

Towards Shangguan Yun, Shui Long did not trust her from the bottom of his heart, especially after the incident with Bing'er last time.

Shui's gaze slowly turned complicated as he looked at the gold-plated invitation card.

He always felt that this time was very dangerous. Shangguan Yun and Wan'er would definitely not walk together just for a banquet! This point was absolute.

However, what should come will eventually come. Even if Shui Ruo didn't want to go, the banquet would still be held as scheduled.

That morning, Shui Ruo was pulled up early in the morning. She had been totally in awe of her master, so she rarely talked to Bing'er. Once she did, it would make Bing'er unhappy. In this regard, Shui Long was also very helpless.

The Crown Princess was a good person. It was difficult to hold a banquet, but she did it quickly. Shui Ruo looked around the crown prince's mansion, feeling that the entire mansion seemed to have changed.

"Very powerful, right? "Miss!" Bing-Er said excitedly. Shui Long listened and nodded his head, neither saying nor denying.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that it was very powerful.

The banquet was held in the backyard of the Crown Prince's Palace. The last time he came to the backyard, it was because the Crown Princess had invited him.

When they arrived at the back garden, Shui looked at the orderly back garden and the people who had already arrived, and sighed with emotion. The Crown Princess was very serious. Everything here was arranged by her carefully, and most of the people here had been carefully selected. Those who had come here were all talented men or women.

"Finally!" I thought you were going to have a pigeon. " The Crown Princess was so excited that she ran over when she saw the water coming. She looked at the water and said,

Shui Long heard what was said and laughed: "How could I dare to leave the princess' pigeon? On the other hand, the Crown Princess was busy all by herself, and I didn't manage to help her. I am so sorry. "

"What are you saying? You and I are a family." The Crown Princess was still magnanimous, but Shui Ruo felt suspicious. In the past, she was acting this way because she wanted the crown prince to have a whole new level of respect for her.

First of all, she had already lost all decorum with him. Even if she wanted to cultivate well, it would be very difficult. However, she acted as if nothing had happened. This was quite abnormal.

As the saying goes, there must be something strange going on.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot." The Crown Princess looked at the water. She seemed to remember something.

"What is it?" The water flowed slowly, not understanding. The Crown Princess then called over Wan'er, "Wan'er, didn't you say you wanted to talk to Miss Shui?"

"Yeah, that's right." Xiang'er looked at Shui Ruo and stood up straight. She was a bit embarrassed as she said, "Um, I have offended you in the past. I hope you don't mind." "I was in the wrong before."

Wan-Er's attitude was very obedient, but it gave Shui Long a creepy feeling. It was truly abnormal!

Just two days ago, he had an expression that said he was going to eat her up. How could a person change so quickly!?

Filled with doubts, Shui Wuyin smiled calmly and asked, "What happened between us?"

"No, no." Xiang Wan'er was a smart person. When she heard Shui Long say this, she knew that he didn't care about what had happened before.

Looking at Shui Ruo, he continued to speak to Wan'er, "Oh right, Miss Shui, I know there's a very beautiful place in the residence. It's rare to see us all here, how about we go together?"
