Chapter 5: The First Victory



Today, Lin's personal maid Xunyi was away, and it was obvious that she could not handle the situation after falling into the water.

Bai Lu reacted quickly, which actually made Luo Shui stunned.

“No…that’s not the case!”

Her face flushed with anger, she looked at Bai Lu with disbelief, and kowtowed madly to Prince Duan.

"How could Miss Bailu lie with her eyes open? We all saw what happened on the arch bridge. It was clearly the princess...it was the princess..."

"Yes, it's the princess."

Unlike when she fell into the water, Bai Lu now stood up straight, with an angry expression on her face and red eyes, but she looked like she had a clear conscience.

"It was the princess! Despite her still weak body, she met the princess on the arch bridge. The princess asked why she hadn't visited her once during her confinement. The princess couldn't answer, but she was afraid that the princess would complain to the prince, so she insisted on not letting the princess go to the prince."

"The two of them then started arguing, and during the argument both the princess and the princess fell into the water!"

"Miss Bailu!"

Luo Shui was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, tears fell like crazy, and he looked extremely aggrieved.

"It was obviously the princess who came first..."

"What first, Princess?"

Bai Lu turned her head and asked in a serious tone

"Then I have to ask you! Why did the princess kick the princess into the lake?"

"That's because... because... because the princess was angry that the princess didn't go to see her..."

He fell into the water and stammered. The situation was too sudden. Gu Qingsheng had clearly left and then turned back. No one could explain the reason.

"Then let me ask you again! Why did the princess kick the princess into the river and then jump in herself?"

Luo Shui was unable to answer this question. Bai Lu looked at her coldly and said aggressively:

"Speak up! You can't say it! And you're slandering the princess! Do you know what crime this is?!"

“That’s enough!”

When Prince Duan's impatient voice sounded, Bai Lu immediately shut up and lowered her head.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

However, Prince Duan's mind is no longer on how the two people fell into the water.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the maid with a dangerous aura, and an oppressive aura instantly emerged.

"You mean, during the days when the princess was in a coma and confinement, the princess didn't visit her once?"

He was stunned when he fell into the water, and his heart suddenly sank into an icy cave.

It turns out that the winner had already been decided.

There is no evidence and no witnesses in this dispute.

The key to winning is who Prince Duan wants to win.

It seems that the princess lost from the very beginning.

Bai Lu's figure is straighter and her voice is clearer

"Yes, Your Highness. The princess has been in a coma for several days, and the princess hasn't visited her once!"

"So, have you been serving the princess all this time?"

"Yes, my lord."

After a few words with Bai Lu, Prince Duan's face darkened and he waved his hand to Bai Lu.

"Go down."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Bai Lu lowered her head and slowly loosened her tightly clenched hands. Others might not have seen it, but she knew that her back was already soaked with sweat.

Thinking of what Gu Qingsheng had said to her just now, she felt a pang of fear in her heart.

That sentence is.

If we use someone else's force to our advantage, the Lin family will be our best shield.

With Bai Lu's kowtow, the matter ended there.

Prince Duan did not express his dissatisfaction with Lin about this matter, but Gu Qingsheng did not care.

Once the seeds are planted, sooner or later they will take root and sprout.

"Family matters, I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Imperial Master."

After dealing with everything, Prince Duan remembered Xu Qingyi who was sitting behind him. He looked a little embarrassed and felt quite uncomfortable facing him.

This is no wonder. If this incident were to get out, Prince Duan would definitely be labeled as a person who manages his family without justice and has weak family traditions.

Needless to say, Xu Qingyi was very smart. He stood up with just a slight movement, and Gu Qingsheng could smell the faint scent of green bamboo.

"Your Highness, don't worry about it. It was I who insisted on staying."

He did not mention a single word about the outcome of Prince Duan's handling of the matter, as if he did not care at all, which made Prince Duan feel relieved.

Then, Xu Qingyi took a slight step and came to the front of the red gauze curtain. He looked at the figure inside and chuckled softly, which was more pleasant than the ten-mile spring breeze.

"Then, tomorrow, I am looking forward to meeting the princess."

"You're a piece of shit!"

“Bang!”

A crisp sound was heard in the huge yard!

The man who had argued for Lin during the day had been knocked to the ground, his cheeks were swollen and there were large bruises around his eyes.

Before this slap, she had been beaten by Lin's men.

"Your servant, I know I was wrong! Your servant knows I was wrong!"

Without time to rest on the ground, he fell into the water and struggled to get up and kneel down. The world was spinning in front of his eyes, and he was still dizzy and couldn't recover.

"It's true! That Bai Lu next to the princess is too aggressive! I, your servant, failed to redress the princess's grievances. I deserve to die! I deserve to die!"

"profound?"

These words seemed to make Lin react. She uttered a syllable with an ambiguous tone, took a step forward, and stepped hard on the hand that fell into the water with her pair of gold-threaded mandarin duck embroidered shoes!

A huge pain came from the fingertips! The face turned pale and he screamed loudly!

Before the sound came out of his throat, his chin was suddenly pinched by Lin!

The blood-red Dankou scratched her face hard, forcing her to look directly into Lin's crazy eyes.

"Did I ask you to redress my grievances?"

The incomparable pain on her body caused goose bumps on her skin. Turbid tears kept falling from her eyes, which had been slit, irritating her still burning cheeks.

"Your servant... Your servant..."

Lin's hand holding her chin tightened a little, making Luo Shui unable to utter a complete syllable.

"When did I ever tell you to redress my grievances? Can't you be smarter?"

"Do you need to tell me that Bai Lu is smart? If it weren't for that nosy servant, would Princess Changle be able to live so comfortably?!"

As if thinking of something, Lin's teeth creaked.

"That damn woman, she can't even rest in peace after her death! She left behind such a troublesome thing!"

"Damn it! We must find a time to pull that Gu Qingsheng off his horse!"

Hatred made Lin tense up all over, and he kept exerting force with his fingers, not caring at all about falling into the water.

The pain from falling into the water almost made her faint. When her bones were almost crushed, Lin finally shook her hand away and wiped the two fingers that had pinched the water with a handkerchief. Her face was disgusted.

“It’s so dirty.”

As the handkerchief slowly fell, Lin's light voice rang out.

"In short, just go along with her, flatter her, and let her do whatever she wants."

"It depends on how long she can be happy."

Lin had been gone for a long time, and Luo Shui was still sitting on the ground in a daze.

She looked horrible, with wounds all over her body bleeding continuously. Her once charming face was now unsightly.

The goose yellow handkerchief on the ground was particularly conspicuous. She looked at the handkerchief, slowly lowered her head, and the light in her eyes gradually dimmed.
