Chapter 40: Meeting an old friend after drinking wine before the peach blossoms bloom



"In fact, Your Highness should also know that even if you didn't promise me anything, I would still agree to it."

Shen Yuyao actually understood that Ling Xiangxiang had always had some feelings for Prince Ning.

She patted Ling Xiangxiang's hand and whispered softly:

"Xiangxiang, I understand..."

Ling Xiangxiang's eyes, full of tenderness, began to turn slightly red again.

She picked up the cup of tea that Baizhi had just served her, tilted her head back and took a sip.

Shen Yuyao knew that she was trying to hide her feelings, so she didn't say it out loud.

He turned around and called Shisu.

"Shiso, the tea is cold..."

"Continue to serve the Empress..."

Zi Su responded softly, and now her eyes were full of warmth when she looked at Ling Xiangxiang.

Ling Xiangxiang touched the corner of her lips with a handkerchief and continued.

After all, whether they are the Marquis or the Prince, Ling Xiangxiang is just their tool.

Did they really care about Ling Xiangxiang's life or death?

"The day the princess entered the palace, I wanted to visit you, but I was afraid that I would make too many enemies in the palace. If I got close to you, it would only bring trouble to you."

Ling Xiangxiang was so clear about her situation, she could be considered a meticulous person.

Shen Yuyao had a question that she had never asked.

Marquis Wuding’s purpose is clear and definite, but what is King Ning’s purpose?

In the past, Ling Xiangxiang was afraid of causing trouble to Shen Yuyao, so she never recognized her. Why would she take the risk to come to Yuxiu Palace today?
