Chapter 145 Such a great contribution, but he is not given it?

"My dear, thank God you haven't left yet."

The maid came forward with the sachet and said apologetically, "My lord, I just realized I found a sachet. I guess it got mixed up with the other sachet while I was packing my things in a hurry."

"oh?"

The sachet that Shen Lingshu had been looking for for a long time now appeared again.

"Please forgive me, Your Excellency. I sent it to you immediately after I found it." The maid knelt down, looking as if she was admitting her mistake.

Shen Lingshu took the sachet without saying a word, confirmed that it was hers and had not been tampered with, and then left.

"Master, is there something wrong with the sachet?" Liu Si looked at it again and again, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong.

"No."

Shen Lingshu knew very well that this was her sachet.

"Master, how about I take the sachet first?" Although Liu Si also smelled it and there was no problem, she was still worried.

"OK."

Shen Lingshu gave the sachet to Liu Si to reassure her. Anyway, she vaguely guessed something.

Not far away, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince watched their departing figures, his eyes burning. When Shen Lingshu handed the sachet to Liu Si with her side face, the sunlight fell on her face, as if it was covered with a layer of bright glow.

Shen Lingyi is very beautiful, and even in sex, she is very open, giving him a different feeling every time. Her eyes are charming and seductive, very different from those dignified ladies.

Even though the prince had some grudges against Shen Lingyi because of her savior, in the end, it was because she became more and more special in the art of sex that the prince favored Shen Lingyi again.

Now, knowing that Shen Lingshu was his former savior, the prince unconsciously replaced his mind with the thought, if it was Shen Lingshu who was taken into the East Palace...

In terms of appearance, the two sisters are different, but if you look closely, the calculation in Shen Lingyi's eyes is clear, even if it is concealed, the prince has seen many people like this since he was a child.

Shen Lingshu's eyes were sincere, clear, and even more charming than Shen Lingyi's...

If it was Shen Lingshu who entered the East Palace at the beginning, would the twin sisters also be his?

Also, is he also responsible for the greenhouse vegetables and increased grain production?

The prince took a deep breath. At the end of the year, when he learned that the second son had grown greenhouse vegetables and even handed over half of the land in the imperial farm to the second son, he complained that the second son had not been given such an important credit?

"Brother, you are here. It's just right. Uncle is looking for you to drink."

Chu Cong walked over and when he saw the prince, he noticed the flash of hostility in the prince's eyes. A thought emerged in his mind: Who has offended my eldest brother?

"Second brother, regarding the matter of grain in the imperial farm..." The prince looked at him. Grain was of great importance to the people. If they could really grow grain for three seasons, or even increase the yield, it would be a great achievement.

"Brother, regarding the imperial farm's grain, didn't we agree that we should go to the south city first? It's warmer there, and try to grow the first crop of early rice. If the early rice can really be grown, then the people will have no shortage of food."

Chu Cong pretended not to understand the prince's thoughts. If he wanted to give the method he came up with to his elder brother, he could do so. However, this method was thought up by Ling Shu, and she had been thinking about it for so many years. He could not give all these things and all the credit to his elder brother.

"Brother, how about we go to South City together?" Chu Cong asked. "By then, the people will praise you."

"hehe."

The prince looked at him with a forced smile, "I'm glad that my second brother is so considerate of me. However, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to South City due to the busy affairs in the capital."

Go to Nancheng, even if the crops are grown, what does it have to do with the prince?

Everyone would say that it was planted by His Royal Highness Prince Lin.

After saying this, the prince turned and left.

Chu Cong watched him leave and fell silent. Qing Wu, who was standing by, saw this and felt anxious. Finally, he couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, you helped the Crown Prince..."

"Qingwu." Chu Cong glanced sideways.

Qing Wu immediately shut up and said, "It was my fault."

Be it Concubine Fang or Shen Lingyi, they were silenced by her and finally they could have a meal in peace.

"Concubine Shen, this is delicious."

Concubine Gao pointed to one of the dishes, garlic-mashed pork, and said, "This is the signature dish of Jin Yu Man Tang. Concubine Shen can try it."

Faced with Concubine Gao's advances, Shen Lingshu did not refuse. She tasted it and found it tasted really good, full of garlic flavor, fat but not greasy.

Concubine Gao approached with all her heart and said enthusiastically, "Today's banquet is all about gold and jade. Please invite Concubine Shen to have dinner at the Golden Jade Hall some other day. The hot dishes that have just been served are really delicious."

"Okay, let's try it some other day."

Shen Lingshu agreed casually. When Concubine Gao heard this, her eyes lit up instantly: "How about the 15th? On the 15th of this month, Jin Yu Man Tang will have a troupe from South City. Is Concubine Shen interested?"

Shen Lingshu: “…” There’s no need to be so serious.

"Then it's settled. On the fifteenth of this month, I will invite you." Concubine Gao didn't hesitate to make the decision.

Shen Lingshu smiled and thought, anyway, the prince might not allow it at that time, and there was also Concubine Fang, so she didn't say anything more.

The next day, Concubine Fang really sent the invitation and invited her to have dinner at Jin Yumantang.

"Master, haven't you always said that you haven't been out for a long time?" Zhu Xin said happily. Although he was going to see Concubine Gao, he was still going out to play.

"No need, just refuse." Shen Lingshu said.

Zhu Xin asked worriedly, "But, if I refuse directly, wouldn't that just offend Concubine Gao?"

"If we don't offend them, won't outsiders think that our Linwang Mansion and Hengwang Mansion are one and the same?"

Shen Lingshu raised her eyebrows. Although she was a female member of the backyard, when she went out, she still represented the female members of the Lin Wang Mansion. Outsiders would not think that Concubine Gao really wanted to ask how to have twins when she saw her.

Outsiders would only think that she was close to the Hengwang Mansion, or even colluded with them...

"But..." Zhu Xin wanted to say something, but in the end, she could only swallow it.

In the evening, Chu Cong came over and saw Shen Lingshu writing a reply, which detailed the various possible factors for having twins and at the same time refused her invitation to a banquet.

"Concubine Gao invites you to dinner? A house full of gold and jade?"

Chu Cong saw Shen Lingshu's handwriting at a glance. Last time, he thought that the letter was written by Shen Lingshu, but after comparing the handwriting, he knew that it was not.

Shen Lingshu's handwriting, like her, has a sense of tenacity and perseverance. Her beautiful calligraphy of small characters with hairpin flowers is not achieved overnight.

The words on the letters exude a kind of gentleness, like duckweed drifting in the wind.

"Your Majesty is well."

Just as Shen Lingshu was about to stand up, she was pushed back. She sat down and explained with a smile: "Concubine Gao just wanted to know how to have twins."

"In Prince Heng's palace, three concubines are pregnant. It seems that none of them are expecting twins yet. Concubine Gao naturally wants to have twins in order to win over Prince Heng."

"only……"

Shen Lingshu paused and said, "The twins are all thanks to the prince, and I can't teach them."

Her words greatly pleased Chu Cong. Does this mean that he is better than his eldest brother and third brother?
