Chapter 174: Death-Free Gold Medal

At the palace banquet, everyone looked at the feared regent of Wei with cautious eyes.

They had seen how Pei Wuyou was bullied before, so how could he be in such a situation now?

It was a frightening situation. Some people were glad that they had not offended Pei Wuyou before, while others were worried that they would be retaliated against.

Pei Wuyou's gaze fell on Ling Qingyan without any concealment.

The members of the delegation and the ministers of Ling State toasted each other and exchanged pleasantries. From time to time, some came to compliment Pei Wuyou, and the scene was harmonious for a while.

The fourth princess Ling Qian and the seventh princess Ling Xi sat behind Ling Qingyan, looking at her back with hatred.

The emperor's grace in bestowing upon Ling Qingyan spread throughout the capital.

Ling Qian and Ling Xi knew that Ling Qingyan was favored by their father, but why did they give her such a generous reward?

Ling Qian has opened a mansion, but it is of normal specifications. Ling Xi doesn't even have her own princess mansion yet.

They felt uncomfortable when they heard that Ling Qingyan was not dead. Now that not only was she alive, but she also received so many rewards, they felt even more unbalanced.

But it doesn’t matter, fortunately, Ling Qingyan is about to get married, and the Wei Regent Pei Wuyou came just for Ling Qingyan.

Let her mess around everywhere, no matter how short-lived her glory is, she will have to marry sooner or later.

Ling Xi was making plans in her mind. When Ling Qingyan went to marry, she would ask her mother to ask her father to help her. All the rewards Ling Qingyan received should fall on her.

Thinking of this, Ling Xi felt much more at ease. Ling Qian was close to her sister, and she knew exactly what she was thinking. Ling Qian looked at her calmly.

Look at how deeply the Regent of Wei State loves Ling Qingyan. Come to think of it, it's because Ling Qingyan is so lucky that the hostage who was rescued at the beginning was so fortunate.

Ling Qian put on a warm smile and walked to Ling Qingyan.

"Sister Tang Ning." Ling Qian smiled brightly and walked slowly to Ling Qingyan, holding a wine glass. "This is a toast to you. I've had a lot of unpleasantness with Sister Tang Ning in the past, and it's all my fault. I hope Sister Tang Ning can forgive me."

She looked sincere, as if she was really feeling guilty and was waiting for her sister's forgiveness.

Ling Qingyan raised her eyes with a complicated expression.

What is going on here?

Ling Qingyan thought that she must have been holding back her fart when he suddenly came to apologize to her, but it was not advisable to hit someone who smiled at her, and besides, it was a palace banquet and many people were watching.

Ling Qingyan picked up the wine glass and responded: "It's okay, I thought my sister was playing with me."

After a slight shock, the girl was at ease, with the same bright smile on her face, waiting for Ling Qian's next words.

"I miss you. My sister and I don't have much time left to spend together. I had a quarrel with my younger sister out of childishness, but it wasn't until my younger sister really wanted to leave Daling that I realized it was wrong."

leave?

Who's leaving, her?

Ling Qingyan was confused and looked up, waiting for Ling Qian's next words.

"The emperor's younger sister has just moved into the princess's residence and is about to marry far away to the Kingdom of Wei. His Royal Highness the Regent has a deep affection for Sister Tangning. Sister Tangning will surely have a smooth life in the future."

"I really can't bear to part with you, and I want to do something for you. You see, this Princess Mansion, why not leave it to me to take care of? When the time comes, I will definitely help you manage the Princess Mansion by giving you some dowry."

Ling Qingyan understood and laughed out loud from the bottom of her heart.

"That's really hard, my dear sister."

"It's okay, my sister always wanted to do something for you."

Ling Qingyan never thought that Ling Qian was so shameless.

No, sister, please insist.

She is really quite confident. She was confident during the female official assessment before, and she is still confident now.

I feel like I'm so smart.

Can you please stop treating others as fools?

Ling Qingyan was so angry that she almost laughed.

Before she could speak, Ling Xi on the side realized what was going on and rushed in front of them.

"What are you talking about, Fourth Sister? Didn't I tell you that I have my eyes on that princess's mansion? I asked my father to ask for it for me, and you actually come to steal it!" Ling Xi scolded.

"You said what's yours is yours? Sister Tangning hasn't even left yet, and Seventh Sister is so eager to take Tangning's Princess Mansion for herself." Ling Qian looked at Ling Qingyan again, "Tangning, you see, after you left, someone has been thinking about your Princess Mansion. Sister is willing to help you take care of it. What's yours is yours, and no one can take it away from you."

"If you have the chance to come back, you can return to your own mansion at any time." Ling Qian looked like she was thinking about Ling Qingyan entirely.

Ling Xi was furious: "You!"

She slammed her sleeves and said, "See if I can snatch it!"

She is the emperor's most beloved daughter besides Ling Qingyan. As long as Ling Qingyan leaves, the emperor will definitely give her things to himself.

Ling Qingyan's head hurt from the noise they made.

"No, you two." Ling Qingyan chuckled, "I'm still here. It's not appropriate for you to have such intentions towards my princess's mansion."

"Besides, who said I would definitely go for the marriage?" Ling Qingyan sneered.

"Sister Tang Ning, I know there is someone in Ling Kingdom that you are reluctant to leave, but you can't avoid this marriage." Ling Qian was very sure.

The State of Wei was a powerful nation, and my father had long wanted to establish a stronger relationship with it. Now the opportunity had come to him. Moreover, according to my mother, the regent of Wei had something my father really wanted as a bargaining chip.

The emperor was determined to get what was in the hands of the Wei regent.

"Then why don't we guess whether I will leave Daling." Ling Qingyan became interested. "Since my royal sister is so sure, how about we make a bet?" Ling Qingyan's brows relaxed.

They all treated her like a fool and tricked her, so there must be a return of favor.

"Okay." Ling Qian's eyes sparkled brightly. She even dared to goad Ling Qingyan: "It would be embarrassing for someone of my status and the Imperial Sister to bet too little. I wonder if the Imperial Sister would dare to bet big."

"Okay, then let's bet on my princess's mansion. I think Fourth Sister is quite interested in it." Ling Qingyan played with her hair. "But since it's a bet, there's naturally a give and take. I've put up such a big stake, what does Fourth Sister have in her hand?"

"If the stakes aren't equal, forget it." Ling Qingyan said leisurely, as if she felt that Ling Qian couldn't come up with something of equal value for the bet.

Who are you looking down on?

When her grandfather was young, he had fought on the battlefield with the late emperor.

Isn't it just because of her vixen mother that she is favored by the emperor?

Isn't it just a nice house, a thousand elite soldiers and three thousand fiefs?

After today, everything is hers.

A little lack of patience will ruin a big plan. You must proceed step by step and slowly set traps for the other party.

Ever since she was punished for cheating in the last female official assessment, Ling Qian has become much more restrained. Her mother taught her many lessons.

Although her mother did not explain some things to her clearly, she already roughly understood what it meant. This was a good opportunity, and if she wanted to get what she wanted, she had to use great benefits to lure her.

This is a must-win game. My mother said that my father is determined to get what Pei Wuyou has. Ling Qingyan will definitely marry him, and she will not lose.

"I have a golden medal of immunity from death bestowed by the late emperor."
