Zhao Lianyan: ...
She really didn't expect Sang Jiang to say that to her directly.
She had noticed the change in Chunhe's expression, and looking at Sangjiang's serious face, she was almost certain that Sangjiang had been forcibly brought back by the Crown Prince.
Although she has been in charge of managing the Crown Prince's residence, she is not the Crown Princess after all. Moreover, given Nangong Jin's temperament, if she dares to let Sang Jiang go, the consequences would be beyond her ability to bear.
She gave a stiff smile: "Little sister, you're so funny. What's your name, little sister?"
"Sang Jiang, you can just call me by my name."
Sang Jiang really didn't like hearing her call her "little sister" so often.
Zhao Lianyan tried her best to maintain her generous and proper demeanor: "Since Miss Sang is His Highness's honored guest, please stay here comfortably. If you need anything, you can ask Chunhe to come to me."
Sang Jiang nodded: "Okay."
"What were you doing just now, Miss Sang?" Zhao Lianyan pointed to the spot where she had just dug.
Sang Jiang glanced back at the direction she was pointing, then looked back at her: "Digging for flowers."
"What are you going to do with the flowers?" Zhao Lianyan asked instinctively.
Sang Jiang thought for a moment and said, "Then... plant it in a flowerpot."
Zhao Lianyan: ...
“Miss Sang, would you like to come with me to the garden? My prince has always loved flowers, and there are many more flowers there than in this courtyard.”
She deliberately emphasized the words "my family's crown prince" very heavily.
Sang Jiang shook her head without even thinking: "No."
The digging in the yard isn't finished yet.
However, she didn't dare say that out loud. After all, she was on someone else's turf, and it would be a bit unethical to be thinking about how to steal their flowers.
She now feels that this concubine must have some kind of social anxiety disorder.
She's been so indifferent to her, why isn't she leaving?
She had to feign politeness with those women in the palace, and now that she's finally out, does she still have to outwit and outmaneuver these three women?
Could she just tell this woman that she's not interested in that damn crown prince and that all she wants to do right now is leave so she doesn't get wanted?
"Hehe." Zhao Lianyan smiled awkwardly. "Then, Miss Sang, you should rest first. We won't disturb you any longer. Just let me know if you need anything."
Sang Jiang nodded: "Respectfully seeing off the ladies."
The three people: ...
After the three left, Sang Jiang squatted back down and started fiddling with her little shovel.
As soon as they stepped out of the courtyard gate of Ping Le Yuan, Su Liangdi couldn't help but exclaim, "Sister, this girl is so beautiful!"
Zhao Lianyan: !!!
Wang Liangdi: ? ? ? So you're an undercover agent sent by the other side?
Didn't you see Zhao Lianyan's unpleasant expression? She really knows how to rub salt in the wound.
But you know what, seeing Zhao Lianyan get the short end of the stick was actually quite satisfying.
Zhao Lianyan smiled and said, "Yes, it's just that she was a little tactless."
Upon hearing this, Consort Wang quickly stepped forward and added fuel to the fire: "That's right, I wonder what the Crown Prince sees in her."
Zhao Lianyan: ...
You can't get through this, huh?
She turned back and gave Wang Liangdi a cool look: "Sister, have you forgotten what I just said? The Crown Prince hates people who stir up trouble behind people's backs the most. This time, I'm punishing you to copy the family rules ten times. Don't do this again in the future, or no one can help you if it gets to the Crown Prince's ears."
Wang Liangdi choked, then forced a smile and said, "Sister is right, I won't do it again."
"Okay." Zhao Lianyan nodded. "I'm tired too. You girls can go your separate ways now."
After saying that, she simply turned and left.
"Take care, sister."
