Concubine Jiang was still a little hesitant. She always felt that Shanyue didn't mean that when he sent the money.
Nanny Wang spat, "You're a concubine, aren't you short of this money? If you accept it, she'll have something to hold against you!"
Concubine Jiang thought that Nanny Wang had watched her grow up, so she wouldn't say anything to harm her. She nodded and said, "You're right. Come on, return the money!"
After Ling'er finished counting the silver and money sent back, she said to Song Yushu, "This concubine is really not in the right mind."
"As a concubine, I'm temporarily in charge of the household affairs, but I still don't have my own staff. I just believe whatever I hear." Song Yushu also shook her head. She had no obligation to help Concubine Jiang sort out the staff.
Ling'er nodded. "Then Nanny Wang is obviously not on her side. How come she didn't notice it at all? She's been made a target, and she's still so happy."
When Lin Zhiyao and Song Yushu are fighting, the best thing for Concubine Jiang to do is to do nothing.
Song Yushu was not afraid of her participation, but he didn't want to implicate innocent people, so he kept trying to make peace with Concubine Jiang, but she took the initiative to participate in the struggle.
The consequences are also very obvious. Concubine Jiang is definitely cannon fodder in the struggle.
Lin Zhiyao felt happy when she heard that Concubine Jiang had rejected Luoxue Villa's advances.
"Just look at those people from small families. They have no vision at all and are extremely stupid!" Lin Zhiyao snorted coldly.
Nanny Wang nodded repeatedly, "Young Miss, you are right. I just explained it to her a few times, and she believed it. Now she is just waiting to crush Shan Yue to death!"
"Even though she believes you, you shouldn't come to me every day." Lin Zhiyao glanced at Nanny Wang. "She may be stupid, but not this stupid."
"Don't worry, Miss. I understand." Nanny Wang quickly took credit for it. "It was to make her more confident that she could use the power of the Lin family."
Lin Zhiyao sat by the window, tearing off a petal viciously. "If the Lin family hadn't suffered such a disaster, why would they need such a lowly fool?"
"As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, the Lin family's restoration is just around the corner. You can rest assured, Miss!" Nanny Wang quickly comforted Lin Zhiyao.
Lin Zhiyao had a bad temper in her early years, and now that the Lin family has fallen on hard times, she has become even more irritable.
Lin Zhiyao ignored what Nanny Wang said. She waved her hand, indicating that Nanny Wang could go back.
After Nanny Wang left, Lin Zhiyao leisurely pulled out a flower and pinched the bud with her red nails. Her face was full of coldness and disdain. "Song Yuyue, if I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time!"
In order to help Concubine Jiang regain the hearts of the people in the inner court of the Prince's Mansion, Lin Zhiyao spent a lot of money from the secret treasury for several days, but in her opinion, it was just a small amount of money.
But she didn't expect that Lu Yanzhou, who hadn't visited her for a long time, would suddenly come.
"We had an alliance when I asked you to stay in Kyoto." Lu Yanzhou sat in the first seat, took a sip of tea slowly, and looked at her meaningfully. "You haven't forgotten, have you?"
Lin Zhiyao was furious but couldn't speak. It was her own property, and now she was being questioned for using it. "What do you mean, Your Highness?"
"This is the Crown Prince's residence. No one can do anything behind my back." Lu Yanzhou put down his teacup and said unhappily, "Now that the battle between me and Prince Jing has reached a critical moment, you are stabbing me in the back?"
Lin Zhiyao frowned, "I haven't even left the courtyard these days. Your Highness, what you said is unreasonable."
"The money that Concubine Jiang spent was given by you, right?" Lu Yanzhou said it directly. He was very tired from dealing with King Jing these days.
Lin Zhiyao was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Lu Yanzhou to know so quickly, but she was not afraid. "Your Highness, Concubine Jiang is your concubine. I am helping her and I am also helping you."
"These are just some matters in the inner chamber. Is it necessary to use the secret vault?" Lu Yanzhou didn't think so. His expenses were very high now and he was already stretched to the limit.
Lu Yanzhou's attitude made Lin Zhiyao very unhappy. She said coldly, "What do you mean by inner house affairs? Didn't you see that bitch from Luoxue Villa bullying me? Do you think I should have to endure it?"
"Your Highness, it's true that the Lin family is in trouble, but it's not impossible for someone to die."
Lin Zhiyao stared at Lu Yanzhou with cold eyes.
It was like a cold and poisonous snake staring at him. Lu Yanzhou seemed to be able to feel the cold breath. He slammed his palm on the table.
"Bang--"
"Lin Zhiyao!"
Lin Zhiyao wasn't threatened at all. She even stood up and sneered, "I won't pretend anymore. We're just using each other. If you can't bear to part with the Lin family's hidden vault and my grandfather's kindness, then you have to side with me!"
"Don't think I don't know that you still want the power of Luoxue Villa! But I advise you not to be so greedy. Either choose him or me!"
"One of us will die!"
Lin Zhiyao's sharp and piercing voice echoed throughout the room. She sounded like someone who had been holding it in for a long time and was finally going crazy.
Lu Yanzhou was frightened by her attitude and couldn't help but take a step back, pointing at Lin Zhiyao, "Are you crazy?!"
Lin Zhiyao sneered, "If you continue to waver and want everything, then I will show you that you are a true lunatic!"
Lin Zhiyao was pale in the middle of the night, and the lip balm on her lips was as red as blood. Lu Yanzhou opened his mouth slightly, and without saying a word, he flicked his sleeves and left.
But before he could calm down, he met Song Yushu on the way.
Song Yushu stood on the path with his hands clasped together, and the maid beside him was holding a small lantern, which really scared Lu Yanzhou.
"Miss Shanyue, why are you standing on the road in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?!" This was the first time Lu Yanzhou spoke so loudly to Song Yushu.
Song Yushu apologized to him without any regret, "I'm sorry, Your Highness."
"What's the matter? Let's talk about it tomorrow." Lu Yanzhou pinched his nose tiredly.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, this matter really can't wait. I believe Lin Liangdi said the same thing." Song Yushu said calmly without any apology.
Lu Yanzhou took a deep breath. "What do you want? I saw you had just recovered from a serious illness, so I let you into my palace. You've caused unrest in my house, and I haven't even looked for you yet, and yet you've come running right in front of me and acting wildly?"
"Your Highness, do you dislike me?" Song Yushu shrugged. "Let's not talk about my true intentions at the beginning, but now Lin Liangdi and I want to know the same thing."
"Your Highness, it's time to give a clear answer as to who you will choose."
"Do you know who you're talking to?!"
