When Xie Yingmian transmigrated to become Prince Ling's joy-bringing consort, Prince Ling had only one breath left.
She was being held by the wet nurses, forced to drink poisoned wine as ...
Chapter 557: Unfortunately, I heard everything
Nanny Ji said, "The envoys were all terrified at the time. Fortunately, the Seventh Prince was a reasonable man. After the fight with the prince, he applied medicine, ate and rested, and continued to fight with the prince after his injuries healed."
"At first, the prince dominated the seventh prince. Later, the prince and the seventh prince tied. Then, the prince and the seventh prince each won half of their matches."
Xie Yingmian asked, "What happened next?"
"Are the princess and the seventh prince engaged?"
Nanny Ji shook her head: "The Seventh Prince is the favorite son of the Emperor and Empress of Donglin Kingdom. Rumor has it that he will inherit the throne."
"We can't let the princess be a concubine, and they can't let the princess be the queen."
"The Emperor and the Dowager knew about this matter, and the Emperor and Empress of Donglin Kingdom were also well aware of it. They didn't take the Seventh Prince's childish words seriously, so naturally they wouldn't arrange such a thing."
"Later, the Seventh Prince was summoned back to Donglin Kingdom, and the little princess was sent south to recuperate, and the matter was left unresolved."
Xie Yingmian had only heard from others that she was Yu Lingye's sister, the concubine's daughter, and her sister-in-law.
The real person has never been seen.
I don’t know how beautiful Yu Lingye’s biological sister is.
When Xie Yingmian asked Nanny Ji this question.
Aunt Ji's expression was a bit complicated: "Generally speaking, sons look more like their mothers, and daughters look more like their fathers."
Xie Yingmian understood that her sister-in-law looked like the late emperor.
From the facial features of Yu Lingye, the emperor and others, she could guess what the late emperor looked like.
After generations of genetic improvement, there are almost no ugly people among the royal family.
But not ugly and absolutely beautiful are two completely different concepts.
It’s a pity that my sister-in-law didn’t inherit the concubine’s genetic lottery as perfectly as Yu Lingye.
Nanny Ji said, "Princess Princess, I am just telling you this, but please do not let the prince know."
"If the prince knew about this, he would definitely kill me."
"What a pity, I heard everything." Yu Lingye's voice came faintly.
Nanny Ji was startled and her face turned pale as paper.
She had lived in the palace before and knew that the less she spoke, the longer she would live.
Only after she became familiar with the princess did she become bolder.
Plus, she is a gossip lover and likes to meddle in other people's affairs.
The princess shared similar interests with her and often came to the kitchen, so after a few visits, she finally let down her guard.
Now Yu Lingye caught her and also caught her telling those unknown gossips.
Nanny Ji was so frightened that she didn't know what to do.
"Your Majesty."
"This old slave deserves to die. This old slave deserves to die."
Nanny Ji knelt on the ground, her body trembling: "Please have mercy, Your Majesty."
Xie Yingmian stood in front of Nanny Ji and said, "Aye, since you heard it, you should know that it was me who asked Nanny Ji to tell you. It has nothing to do with Nanny Ji."
Yu Lingye glanced at Nanny Ji.
Nanny Ji felt the pressure from Yu Lingye, and she pressed her head tightly against the ground, not daring to breathe.
Yu Lingye: "What are you afraid of? Weren't you very happy just now talking about my gossip?"
Upon hearing this, Nanny Ji trembled even more violently.
Yu Lingye looked at Xie Yingmian again, his tone showing no abnormality: "Is the princess happy to hear this?"
Xie Yingmian: "Happy."
"Are you angry?"
"Does the king look like such a stingy person?"
"...similar." Xie Yingmian only dared to say this in her heart and did not dare to say it out loud.
"Madam Ji always followed my orders. If you want to blame someone, blame me, don't take your anger out on Madam Ji."
Yu Lingye sneered: "Don't worry, no one can escape."
He said to Nanny Ji, "Who gave you the guts to talk about the master behind his back? Have you learned all the rules? Fine me three months' salary and make me learn the rules again. If you don't change, I'll kick you out of the palace next time."
Aunt Ji was pardoned.
Three months' salary was not much for her, so this punishment was nothing.
The prince was not angry at all.
"This old servant bows to thank the prince."
Yu Lingye looked at Xie Yingmian and said, "It's your turn."
Xie Yingmian: "You're going to fine me three months' salary too?"
Yu Lingye said coldly, "Madam Ji followed your orders and talked about the king. At most, she is an accomplice."
"You are the main culprit, and three months' salary is not enough."
Xie Yingmian: "How many months of monthly salary do you want to deduct from me?"
Yu Lingye shook his sleeves.
In the past, he could use silver to "threaten" Xie Yingmian.
After opening the affordable medical clinic, money no longer posed a threat to her.
What's more, her empty stone space is filled with gold.
"I haven't figured out how to deal with you yet, so I'll keep my debt." Yu Lingye held out his hand, "Come here."
Xie Yingmian handed her hand to Yu Lingye.
Yu Lingye took Xie Yingmian to the pavilion behind Danyue Courtyard.
The pavilion is located at a high place, which can block the overbearing aroma of chili peppers.
There are chairs in the gazebo.
After Yu Lingye sat down, Xie Yingmian ran behind him like a dog and massaged his shoulders.
"Don't blame Aunt Ji. I was the one asking." Xie Yingmian said, "I just wanted to know some things about your childhood."
"Aye...you worked hard when you were little."
I knew the Toffee was unreliable, but I didn’t know she was that unreliable.
Yu Lingye's slender fingers fell on Xie Yingmian's hand: "What happened in the past is in the past. There is no point in talking about it again."
Xie Yingmian: "No, it does make sense."
"Aye, do you know what you look like in my heart?"
