Three days later, Lin Qingping's secret letter arrived again, inviting her to meet.
Seeing that Qu Jingyun was actually considering whether to go, Xiao Liu anxiously reminded her, "Madam, you can't go. If those people find out that you deliberately approached them, I'm afraid..."
Xiao Liu didn't dare to think about the consequences at all.
But Qu Jingyun was smiling happily.
She patted Xiao Liu on the shoulder and reassured him, "There's no need to be so scared. I have bodyguards with me."
After saying that, Qu Jingyun called over the nanny and asked her to help her wash up.
Around noon, Qu Jingyun reappeared at Tianxiang Tower.
Seeing that she had actually come, Lin Qingping stood up, walked up to her, and curiously circled around her.
Then Lin Qingping laughed and said, "Shen Song said that you spend all your time around General Shen and don't have much brains, but I feel that you are completely different from what Shen Song said?"
Qu Jingyun's expression remained indifferent, allowing her to scrutinize her.
Once everyone had looked away, she sat down and calmly poured herself a cup of tea.
Seeing that she was genuinely not afraid of her, Lin Qingping asked curiously, "You don't seem to be very worried about your husband's death."
She remained calm and even had the leisure to enjoy her tea.
"Your tea is quite good. The road to restoring the country is no easy feat, yet you drink such luxurious black tea. You don't spend all your money on clothes and accessories, do you?"
If you look closely at Lin Qingping's attire, although she appears to be very simple, all her clothes and jewelry are unique.
Especially the pattern on that white outer shirt.
It was embroidered with gold thread.
Such expensive textiles are not something that Princess Lin Qingping of the kingdom can afford.
There is only one possibility.
Lin Qingping spent all her money on clothes and dressing up.
The thought that Shen Song could be so easily seduced by this kind of woman made her want to beat him up.
When she noticed the strange look in people's eyes as they stared at her, Lin Qingping swallowed hard.
Then Lin Qingping got straight to the point: "It's been several days, shouldn't Madam Shen have made up her mind by now?"
"I haven't witnessed your strength, how can I consider it?"
After saying that, Qu Jingyun rolled her eyes again.
Lin Qingping took a deep breath. "You wait here."
She lifted her foot and left the room.
Not long after, Lin Qingping walked in again.
She looked at Qu Jingyun with a cold face and said reluctantly, "You're lucky. Come with us now."
Upon hearing this, Qu Jingyun immediately became alert.
She remained seated.
"I'm not going anywhere."
Upon hearing this, Lin Qingping angrily rebuked, "Didn't you say you wanted to see our strength? Now that we're letting you go, you're afraid. Could it be that Madam Shen is going back on her word?"
Qu Jingyun raised an eyebrow and smiled enigmatically.
"So you're taking me to see your strength?"
"Um."
Seeing her reluctance, Qu Jingyun let out another cold laugh.
"It's right that she doesn't want to. If she really did, I would have to suspect that there might be something fishy going on."
Qu Jingyun stood up, slowly straightened her clothes, and then asked Lin Qingping to lead the way.
Lin Qingping was very reluctant to put on the veil, so she let Qu Jingyun get into a carriage with her.
As she was walking, she tried to pull back the curtain to look outside, but as soon as she lifted a corner, Lin Qingping immediately pushed her away.
Don't touch it.
Qu Jingyun smiled dismissively: "I was just curious about the scenery outside, why are you being so fierce?"
"Qu Jingyun!" Lin Qingping shouted angrily, "I don't think you're here to cooperate with us at all. You're not actually in cahoots with that dog of an emperor, are you?"
As they spoke, Lin Qingping began to have doubts.
For a while, her gaze remained fixed on herself, and Qu Jingyun shrugged gently.
"If you don't believe me, then forget it."
Lin Qingping stared at her for a while longer before issuing another warning.
"You'd better not do anything reckless. If something really happens, don't blame me for not warning you."
Qu Jingyun just smiled.
About half an hour later, the carriage finally stopped.
Lin Qingping jumped off the carriage first.
"arrive."
Looking at the place, a deep meaning flashed in Qu Jingyun's eyes.
It seems they're quite good at hiding things.
This is a dilapidated temple far from the capital, where many homeless people gather, and it's always been very chaotic.
Using this place as a hiding place, they're quite bold.
"We will be attacking the city tomorrow, and I hope that Madam Shen can hand over the tiger tally of the Shen family army to me."
"Impossible." She refused outright.
Lin Qingping immediately became angry, "Don't forget that you're in the same boat as us now, Qu Jingyun. Have you ever thought that what you're doing could very well kill everyone in the General's Mansion!"
She shrugged dismissively, "What does it matter to me whether they live or die?"
"you……"
For a moment, Lin Qingping was speechless.
She looked around and said, "How about this? I'll have the Shen family army, which is still in the city, assemble. If you can really break into the capital, then I'll have the Shen family army take charge. What do you say?"
Lin Qingping's gaze was gloomy, and she remained silent for a long time without giving an answer.
Seeing this, she was not in a hurry and patiently waited for Lin Qingping to give her an answer.
Lin Qingping took a deep breath and reluctantly agreed.
He then reached out to Qu Jingyun.
"Madam Shen, we are very sincere, but where does Madam Shen's sincerity lie?"
"What?" she asked, feigning ignorance.
Pretending to be confused, Lin Qingping growled, "Qu Jingyun, we can't possibly listen to your nonsense, can we?"
She frowned, seemingly very dissatisfied with Lin Qingping's attitude.
The man next to Lin Qingping gave her a wink.
