Actually, he had already started to think that something was wrong with this matter. Back then, when First Princess Pingning wanted to kill Lin Shu, he wanted to kill him because Lin Shu refused to have any relationship with her youngest son.
Then the Princess Changze? Why did he have to take the risk of exposing himself to kill Lin Shu? If he didn't hate the way he killed a thousand enemies and eight hundred people, he probably wouldn't be able to do it … Furthermore, Lin Shu was the direct daughter of the fifth house of the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, even if it was a merchant from the outer sect, she should not be debased like this, there were too many tricks involved!
Thinking about that pale white face with some determination, Lu Jingran became distracted.
Why would that girl tell him these things? Who is he? He boasted that he had never really cared about such tedious matters, but now he was curious.
Mr. Bai said in detail, "... Since the already knows of your identity and you saved her life twice, you might as well take advantage of this time to ask about the secrets behind it. We are extremely weak and can only start from a small point of view to see if there is anything wrong with it.
This matter was related to the Princess Changze, and it was possible that one day, there would be a relationship between the King Rui and the secrets within, and then, there would be a relationship between the Guo Family, and the Seventh Prince. The aristocratic families of the capital had always been entangled with the King Rui, and if they could truly connect to the King Rui, it would benefit Lu Jingran's future completely.
Furthermore, although the King Rui was not a martial general, he had a lot of power and influence in Fujian.
Lu Jingran became increasingly annoyed, "The reason why I saved twice was only out of instinct, not out of scheming. If Fourth Miss was willing to tell me these things, then I would naturally tell her. Furthermore, that King Rui is not a good person either. He has done quite a lot of cruel and merciless things in Fujian all these years … "
"Have you ever heard of a saying, 'when water clears, there is no fish'? If a person does not know to change, how can he accomplish anything major?" However, he thought about what he had promised the Old Duke previously, that he would need to properly support Lu Jingran, or else, with this kind of blockhead, if he was to spend a lot of money, he wouldn't be willing to teach the Mr. Bai, "I'm not saying that you should learn to do that kind of thing, but I'm sure you should take care of it. For example, the's father, Lin Pei, has come across many talented people who have seen people talking and seen how smooth the road to becoming a ghost, how many flowers in the world are there? One in three years and how many flowers are out there like Lin Pei, so how many of them are already in the Third Rank at such a young age? "
Lin Pei was the famous flower explorer back then.
Every word that Mr. Bai said was said for Lu Jingran's sake, and now, he had even lowered his voice. "I heard that Elder Zhang seems to have gotten onto a roll, and said that King Rui is doing evil deeds in Fujian …"
Lu Jingran's attention immediately fell on the words, "Elder Zhang gave the Emperor a paper?"
Mr. Bai nodded.
Lu Jingran let out a long sigh. Although the King Rui had done well in Fujian, it could be said to be able to cover the sky with one hand, and although the Elder Zhang was a pavilion elder, he did not have any reserves of Zhang Family at all, so how could he compete with the King Rui, "The Elder Zhang is one of the few loyal subjects in the imperial court. King Rui is a relative of the Emperor, and have been in Fujian for many years, the power within is far from what Elder Zhang can imagine. I am afraid that this time, Elder Zhang will lose his position as Pavilion Elder, or at the very most, lose his life, and will even implicate the entire Zhang Family. "
Saying that, he paused, "I'm afraid that Elder Zhang is thinking that since he is old, he cannot serve the Daqing Dynasty anymore. He thinks that since he is still in power, he might be able to benefit the citizens … If the Elder Zhang were to enter, who would take over the position of the Elder Zhang and enter the pavilion? "
Mr. Bai didn't even mutter to himself, "It's most likely Lin Pei … This person is not simple, I am not forcing you to get on good terms with the, but there are some things that even if we knew, we would be able to prevent it from happening, and plan ahead. "
Lu Jingran knew about this, but after thinking about it, he still did not send any message from the Banyan Garden.
When he saw Lin Shu in the Third Prince's Mansion, Lu Jingran's face looked a little unnatural. But fortunately, they were in the outer court, so he could only see Lin Shu and the other ladies of the aristocratic families enter the inner courtyard.
Lin Shu also felt that she had glanced at Lu Jingran, but in the next moment, when she opened his eyes to look, that person was already gone.
However, Lin Hui was very happy, she dragged Lin Shu and looked at that place, just like a little red man who had never seen the world before, "... Sister Shu, everyone said that the third prince was doted upon by the emperor. I didn't believe it before, but now that I look at it, tsk tsk … I'm afraid this Crown Prince position will definitely belong to none other than the Third Prince. "
"Third sister, where is this place? You even dare to say that?" Lin Shu was so scared that she wanted to use her hands to cover Lin Hui's mouth, she even warned him softly, "If anyone heard your words, they would think that it was from our Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, although Grandmother has suffered a stroke, if First Aunt knows about it, he would definitely teach you a lesson."
Lin Hui looked around in fear. Seeing that there was no one around, she calmed herself down, "Sister Shu, don't scare me, I have been too timid recently!"
After experiencing so many incidents with Yao Yao, she had indeed become much more taciturn.
Lin Shu only laughed, and the two walked around the garden hand in hand. This Third Prince's Mansion was indeed very luxurious, enough to show the emperor's fondness towards the Third Prince, just that although the mansion was luxurious, compared to the Palace's first-class noble families' gardens, it had a history of less than a hundred years.
Even if it was a time when he was tired of seeing flowers, it didn't matter if Lin Hui's mood had arrived or not, he would leave even faster. Now that he heard the sound of the wind blowing at him, he cried out, "Aiyah, I'm afraid that this bridal sedan has entered the side door. Let's go, let's go take a look."
Since they were only invited to the Lateral Consort, the Third Prince's Mansion did not hold a large feast, and only invited people who were familiar with each other to come over.
Lin Shu was unwilling to join in on the liveliness, but was nearly dragged to the main hall by Lin Hui. At this time, Zhang Yuanqing and Wang Manjing, who were both dressed in pink, stood at the center of the hall with the Third Prince and Third Princess seated at the head of the table.
Because Lin Shu had already met Zhang Yuqing and Wang Manjing, her attention was now focused on the Third Prince's consort. The Third Prince's consort was wearing a bun made from peony, a phoenix hairpin encrusted with gold, a golden sleeveless shirt, a rust-colored peony dress …" It was clear that she was the mistress of the third prince's residence.
Honestly speaking, the Third Princess's looks were ordinary. Not to mention Man Jing, even she was weaker than Zhang Yuanqing by a large margin.
From this, it could be seen that this was not a good relationship!
Yes, if it was her, she would not be at ease either. Her identity was higher than the Third Princess, and her looks were better than the Third Princess, so even though she had just started learning, she still had to pay respects to this woman every day.
Otherwise, she would not care if you were the direct daughter of a famous clan or the grandson of a pavilion elder, she would not show mercy when it came down to it. Even if you were to cry like this, other people would not say a single word about the Third Princess.
There were differences in descendants, as well as in the right and left sides. Sometimes, there was only a single word of difference, but fate was completely different.
I have to say that this Wang Manjing is truly a smart person. After serving the tea to the Third Princess behind Zhang Yuanqing, he said smilingly, "Previously, chenqie had always admired the Third Princess for her meekness and gentleness, and was even very generous. Even the empress dowager would often praise you when she was in Tzu Ning Palace, but now, chenqie has the fortune to learn from you. I hope that the empress won't think of chenqie's stupidity."
Heh, what a beautiful speech, not only do you praise Third Princess highly in front of everyone, but you also did not forget to say that I have Empress Dowager Wang supporting me from behind!
"At first, when my younger sister was just sent by the empress dowager to the estate to take care of Third Prince, I already felt that we were close friends. From today onwards, we will really be sisters.
When Zhang Yuanqing thought about the words that the Grandma Zhangda had mentioned before their marriage, he barely restrained the unhappiness in his heart. He wanted to say it several times, but Wang Manjing's cultivation was higher, so he didn't give her any chance to interrupt him. As soon as he entered the door, he almost pressed her down tightly.
The men, however, were not in the mood to care about the war between women. They only wanted to make fun of Third Prince's good fortune. Not only did he have a beautiful concubine, but he also had a great man with eight talents. Even Third Prince had a smile on his face.
This girl naturally escorted the two Lateral Consort s of the Third Prince to the backyard. Actually, not many young masters and young ladies from aristocratic families came today, and only Zhang Yuanqing's few cousins and some relatives and friends of the Third Princess. As for Wang Manjing, not a single person she was familiar with came.
Right, all the people she was familiar with were now in the palace, so how could she have the time to come out?
