With Zong Zheng Xiaoting's approval, Ning Shuang couldn't help but feel more confident.
"I think that the princess' marriage will be the source of the Royal Concubine's constant concern and unforgettable memories in her life. And if she puts herself in her shoes, she will also know that the hatred that Concubine Xian has for her and the princess is even more impossible to reconcile. Because of this, the Royal Concubine will always be vigilant, because the princess did all this for her and the Empress, just for their safety. Out of the best thoughts and responses for the princess. , they must think about the princess's thoughts. And with the princess's reminder, the Empress and the Imperial Concubine will know that the ally they once trusted, who seemed to have saved the Imperial Concubine several times, is actually contradictory. She is both a person and a ghost. Then Concubine Xian is undoubtedly a thorn, reminding the Empress and the Imperial Concubine from time to time not to be easily blinded by what they see. Therefore, keeping Concubine Xian will do more good than harm. "
It’s really clear!
Zong Zheng Xiaoting thought to himself that Ning Shuang's analysis between the lines was very accurate. He had been silent for such a long time, and now she was analyzing like this just to tell him that her thoughts were consistent with his.
Knowing how much he valued the Imperial Concubine, he took this gamble, in order to make himself feel that if he kept her, she could take care of the Imperial Concubine for him.
What a pity...
Zong Zheng Xiaoting smiled and said, "Ning Shuang's words are exactly what I want to say."
Zong Zheng Xiaoting cast a look at Qingqing, and the eyes of the master and servant were full of smiles of success. Zong Zheng Xiaoting waved to Ningshuang, and slowly said, "Originally, I was worried that Qingqing was not smart enough. In the future in Yunguang Kingdom, I need to pay more attention to her. After listening to your words today, Ningshuang, I suddenly understand the intention of my mother to assign you to me."
Ning Shuang felt a chill in her heart at this moment. Didn't the princess' words mean that she was satisfied with herself? If so, then...
Before Ning Shuang finished her guess, Zong Zheng Xiao Ting said, "I originally thought that keeping you here would be good for my mother, but now it seems that Yunguang Kingdom has you and Qingqing to complement each other, so I can rest assured."
Zongzheng Xiaoting yawned, "I am tired, Qingqing, you and Ningshuang should get ready. I don't need you to accompany me here."
"Yes!" Qingqing responded quickly, leaving Ningshuang standing there in a daze, like a wooden chicken.
Zongzheng Xiaoting narrowed his eyes and glanced at him, "Ningshuang, what else do you want?"
At this moment, Ning Shuang's heart was in a knot. She swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth. Finally, she lowered her head and said, "No...I'll take my leave."
Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at Ning Shuang's retreating back and narrowed his eyes dangerously. This Ning Shuang was indeed not simple. What just appeared in her eyes was a strong unwillingness. However, she still swallowed the words of begging to stay in the palace. What was she up to? Was it because of his cruelty in front of Concubine Zhenxian that she dared not cross the line again?
Thinking about Ningshuang's reaction, Zong Zheng Xiaoting's brows were furrowed.
What happened tonight was not only to shock Concubine Zhenxian, but also to warn Ningshuang to behave herself and confirm whether he should take her away. Unfortunately, in the cooperation with Qingqing, he had to choose to take Ningshuang away from the palace.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting sighed deeply. No matter what her reason was, he was just an ordinary man. To protect his aunt, he could only sacrifice others. In this feudal dynasty, the rules were different from those in modern times. If he was not selfish and cruel, then the ones who would die would not only be the people he cared about, but also himself.
Closing his eyes heavily, Zong Zheng Xiaoting continued to calm his inner turmoil...
He walked out of the frosty inner room numbly step by step. At this moment, the hatred and unwillingness in his heart kept churning in his mind.
She really didn't want to accept it, but she couldn't say anything! Everything that happened to the second princess tonight told her that she was not a fool, and she understood everything. If she insisted on doing something, she was afraid that her purpose would be exposed.
But……
After all these years of hiding, all my efforts were in vain because of the second princess. How can I accept this?
It turned out that the silence these days was just to give myself the most painful blow tonight, to warn myself not to learn from Concubine Zhenxian, who was too smart and made mistakes. The second princess's mind is so deep, what should I do?
Qingqing, who was walking beside her, called Ningshuang, "Ningshuang, from now on, we will be the ones accompanying the Second Princess. If there is anything, you must give me more advice."
Qingqing blinked and looked at Ningshuang sincerely. But she saw that she looked sad, so she asked in surprise, "Ningshuang, why are you so worried?"
"I..." Ning Shuang bit her lip as she looked at the care and sincerity on the face of the man in front of her. "I just can't bear to let go."
"Can't bear to part with her?" Qingqing repeated, looking puzzled: "Isn't Ningshuang an orphan like Qingqing?"
"Yes!" Ningshuang nodded awkwardly, "It's just that I've been living here all my life. I'm going to Yunguang Country, and I don't want to leave any of the plants and trees here."
Qingqing nodded and pretended to be innocent: "That's true, Qingqing is reluctant to leave, but Qingqing heard from the princess that Yunguang Kingdom is close to us, and the customs and habits there are similar to those of Luozha Kingdom. We slaves are fatherless and motherless, lonely and helpless, unlike others who still miss their hometown after leaving the palace. What we are reluctant to leave is just the familiar place. If we leave, no one will miss us, and we don't even know if the next master will be as good as the princess. So, staying with the princess is the best way out."
"Okay?" Ningshuang looked at Qingqing's admiring face and knitted her eyebrows together: "Qingqing, aren't you afraid of watching the princess handle things? Uh... don't get me wrong, Ningshuang just feels that I don't understand the princess, so I'm afraid that if I'm not careful..."
Ning Shuang had the right timing for the probing words. Qingqing in front of her was the confidant of the Second Princess, but she was a simple person. If she wanted to spy on the Second Princess, the best way was to start with Qingqing. Only by pretending to be afraid would Qingqing not suspect anything, and she could then consider a countermeasure.
However, Ningshuang didn't know that Qingqing's innocence was just a mask she wore because of Zongzheng Xiaoting's protection and acquiescence. The reason why she could pretend to be harmless and leak the news without restraint was only because of the tacit understanding and strategy that the master and servant had reached long ago.
She suddenly realized something, her eyes widened, and then she waved her hand and smiled: "You have misunderstood the princess on this point."
"misunderstanding?"
"Yes, I misunderstood, Princess. In fact, you are just like the Royal Concubine, with a sharp tongue but a soft heart." Qingqing looked like an experienced person. She walked with Ningshuang in her hand, and kept talking about Zongzheng Xiaoting's character and everything about him.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting in the room still had his eyes closed and had fallen asleep, but his brows were still slightly furrowed, as if he was worried.
