Tears streamed down his face, but Third Princess knew this better than anyone else. Not only did he want to get rid of everything that was happening with Young Princess, he also wanted to preserve his reputation as a virtuous and virtuous lady.
In her heart, she couldn't help but secretly blame the Eighth Prince. She could only think of a good reason why the Eighth Prince would drag Wang Manjing down with him. It really was a pot that couldn't be opened.
Ah, this is really in line with those words. Becoming a whore and still thinking about building a memorial archway!
However, Eighth Prince only sneered.
His Third Brother had told him quite a lot about the Third Princess after drinking too much, so no matter what, he would not believe that the Third Princess was innocent.
The person who knows you the best in the world is the person who sleeps next to you.
If it was really innocent, why would Third Princess look at Lin Shu with a probing gaze and vigilance? But even more than that, she seemed uneasy.
The Third Princess had always treated the Young Princess as her beloved jewel, so why didn't the Third Princess just now want others to take the Young Princess out for a stroll, and instead be at ease with teaching it to the Lin Shu who had met the Young Princess twice.
[That is really unreasonable!]
The woman in the inner chamber had a short vision, but he had been familiar with the master with the most profound Daqing Dynasty who taught him the Four Books and Five Classics since he was young.
He only repeated what he had said, "Third sister, it's better if you send someone to invite third brother over."
Just now, he had gone to take a walk in the garden, and when he thought about his encounter with Lin Shu in the garden, he originally wanted to try his luck, but who knew that he would frequently bump into him?
Third Princess was unwilling to tell the Third Prince about this matter, and if he really did say it, even if the Third Prince had some doubts about her, she was unwilling. Now, she could only say: "Eighth Brother, now that we are the birthdays of the Young Princess, why did you insist on making such a big deal out of this matter? Even the Lin Clan's Fourth Miss has such a reputation, do you really believe it? Furthermore, even if you really want to believe, I won't say anything. Just now, you were just meeting the Lin Family's Fourth Miss on the way, and the Lin Family's Fourth Miss isn't always with you, what right do you have to say that she didn't do this? "
"Or did you really make this woman blind? No, I have to go tell Queen Mother about this matter and see how Queen Mother decides. As her sister-in-law, I cannot let this kind of woman harm you. "
She knew perfectly well that if this matter involved the Empress Zhang, when the Empress Zhang saw that the Eighth Prince was biased towards Lin Shu, he would be angry, and at that time, he would definitely blame the injuries on the Young Princess on Lin Shu … Heh, since Lin Shu didn't want to help her, he might as well get rid of him, so as to not leave him in the way!
The Eighth Prince was more clear than anyone else about his personality.
In the past, the Emperor was worried that his sons would fight over the position of crown prince, so he didn't set any rules for his sons. Because of this, both the Empress Zhang and the Emperor didn't get along well, and in the following years, he didn't even like the Third Princess at all.
It was only because of the Young Princess that Zhang and Third Princess's relationship had improved a little. When the Emperor intended to elect a consort for the prince, there were many well-known ladies on the list, but the Empress Zhang was very picky, and the matter of his marriage had not been settled.
For this matter, the Emperor and the Empress Zhang were slightly unhappy.
Eighth Prince was a little hesitant, "Third sister, why is this matter related to Queen Mother? We are talking about the matter of the Young Princess … "
"Look at how confused the Lin Family's Fourth Miss is! Eighth brother, I told you to explain everything yet you didn't say anything. Just now, you weren't together with the Lin Family's Fourth Miss, how do you know that he didn't do anything to the Young Princess? " Even if it was someone who spent all his time with him, he might not even know a single person's personality. Not to mention the fact that he had only met Eighth Prince and Lin Shu a few times already.
The Eighth Prince's face became redder and redder, but in the end, he clenched his teeth and said: "Just now, I have been following behind the Lin Family's Fourth Miss. Ever since she carried him out, I have been following her all the way to the flower garden. So, I naturally know that the Lin Family's Fourth Miss did not plot against Young Princess! "
What? Everyone was stunned, not just Lin Shu and Third Princess, even the spectators were all staring at the scene with their eyes wide open.
What song was this again? Could it be that Eighth Prince likes the Lin Family's Fourth Miss?
Third Princess was stunned, "Eighth brother, don't speak nonsense, and don't come up with such a lie just for the sake of the Lin Family's Fourth Miss. If Queen Mother heard these words …"
"I'm not lying!" Eighth Prince cut her off, and spoke word by word: "I am not lying, if you don't believe me, go and ask Third Brother, just now I already told him that I wanted to take a look around, and that is because I know that the Lin Family's Fourth Aunt is here today, so I thought I might bump into the Lin Family's Fourth Miss, and even waited for a long time to the side, and when the Lin Family's Fourth Miss came out, I also followed him. I saw that Zhang Lateral Consort's servant had walked far away, so I walked over hesitantly, and if Third Sister did not believe him, then there was nothing I could do."
His eyes were determined, and he didn't look like he was lying at all.
Third Princess was truly foolish this time, how should he explain this matter to Empress Zhang?
Because Eighth Prince had not gotten married, he stayed in the palace all these years, waiting for the marriage ceremony before leaving the palace. It seemed that besides that incident, the opportunity to meet Lin Shu was also inside the Third Prince's Mansion.
If Empress Zhang knew about this, what would happen?
Third Princess was so shocked that she couldn't even speak clearly, "Eighth brother, this... Let's talk about this inside the house! Someone, go get the third prince! "
At this time, the surrounding people also did not have the time to go up, they could only leave Lin Shu, Third Princess and the rest to carry him.
Although it was already winter, the interior of the house was filled with beautiful flowers. The daffodils that had moved in from the greenhouse were pushed by the heat, and the entire room seemed to be filled with a faint fragrance.
Coupled with the fragrance of the tea, it was the most suitable place for them to talk, but no one had the mood to do so right now.
Lin Shu could not help but think of what exactly did the Eighth Prince mean by this. Could it be that the protection of the Eighth Prince was too great, and he could not even differentiate between priorities …
While he was deep in thought, the third prince hurried over. He must have heard about this on the way here. His face was dark as he asked, "What is going on?"
Third Princess did not dare to reply, she only lowered her head and stared at the tip of her own foot.
Eighth Prince had already regained his calm, and leisurely said. "Third brother, you should investigate the matters regarding Young Princess!"
No matter who did this thing in the Young Princess, the most urgent matter at hand was not as shocking as what the Eighth Prince had said, "It's not too late to investigate the Young Princess later. This thing happened within the Third Prince's Mansion, so we will eventually find out why.
Just now, he already felt that something was amiss, everyone was speaking nicely, why did Eighth Prince suddenly want to leave? I haven't been back for a long time.
Because he had married into a Third Princess, he was always a little depressed. He knew in his heart that if he were to marry a young lady from a famous clan, the title of Crown Prince would belong to him.
That day, the Second Miss of Chen House had used a sinister method. Although eighth brother could have arranged this marriage with just a few words, but eighth brother shook his head and said that he didn't know who this girl was, and had even exposed the plot of the Chen family's Second Miss.
In the end, the Empress Zhang was enraged and reprimanded the Chen Family's Second Miss. Otherwise, why would the Chen Family's Second Miss be married to the Duke Chengan s of the Duke Chengan Palace? He really wanted to pry open his little brother's head and see what was inside … Even a fool would know how to choose between the Chen Family's Second Miss s and the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion's Fourth Miss s, yet his own little brother didn't!
Even though the Emperor dotes on him, the Emperor has so many sons, so he can't care about that at all.
"Third Brother, I, I really like Miss Lin, and I hope that Third Brother can say a few good words in front of Royal Father and Queen Mother. I, I want to marry her as my wife, and marry her as my Eighth Prince's Consort …"
Third Prince fiercely slapped the table, "This is simply nonsense. Do you really not know what you are saying? Eighth Prince's Consort, Queen Mother doesn't even have the interest of the Chen Family's Second Miss, how could he have the interest … "
He prided himself on being noble, and had said something like that in his anger just now, but now he looked at Lin Shu who was seated at the side, and was unable to continue speaking.
Actually, Lin Shu also knew what the Third Prince wanted to say. Yeah, even she couldn't understand what she wanted to say, it seems like she had not met with Eighth Prince even once before …
The Eighth Prince said word by word, "I have already decided on this matter. No matter how you advise me, I will not change my mind."
The Third Prince was so angry that he couldn't even talk. If this kind of person with a good temper were to be stubborn, even nine oxen wouldn't be able to come back. "Your marriage is up to you, it depends on what the Royal Father and the Queen Mother say … I think that since it's like this, you don't need to attend the Young Princess's birthday banquet anymore. Let's carry Young Princess and talk to him after we enter the palace. "
If she knew about this, she would definitely speak up to stop him. Third Prince, this brother of his, had some things to say, but he was even more unwilling to part with the Eighth Prince because of this matter. After all, he still hoped that the Eighth Prince could help him ascend to the throne.
Only the younger brothers of his mother and brothers were something he could trust.
