Chapter 294 Trust
Su Qingwan looked at the priceless treasures in the box and said anxiously, "Your Highness, this is too valuable. I can't accept it."
"Xiao Wu, your brother and I were married, and I am your sister-in-law. Maybe in your heart, you are unwilling to admit it and wish to sever your relationship with the royal family. Later, I also married the prince consort and served as the daughter-in-law of the Lu family for more than ten years. But in my heart, my husband is only your brother, and you are about to get married, and you are his only living sister. It is not excessive for me to give you anything. These things should have belonged to you."
"Your Highness can leave it to Nian Qing. When he gets married in the future, it can be used as his betrothal gift."
"How could I be the one sitting in the hall when Nianqing gets married? He returned to Huainan to recognize his ancestral roots and openly severed all ties with me. Xiaowu, this is my heartfelt gift and my compensation to you. If you refuse again and again, I will be very sad."
Su Qingwan felt a little hesitant and uncomfortable. She didn't want to let down this kindness, but she was also afraid that behind this kindness was a favor that she couldn't repay. She couldn't help feeling a little nervous and unwilling to accept it.
But she knew better than anyone how the eldest princess treated Nianqing. It was true that she was willing to sacrifice her life for Nianqing, and it was also true that she loved her brother.
More than ten years have passed, and this love has always remained. She is sincere. Even if he is not sincere to her, as long as Nianqing is there, they will always have a bond.
She also couldn't get too upset with the eldest princess.
"Your Highness, your gift is so precious. I... would rather obey your command than be disrespectful." Su Qingwan glanced at Qingyun, and Qingyun and several maids came over and carried the box down.
The princess smiled and said, "That's right. We are one family, so we shouldn't talk nonsense. There is also good news from Huainan. The war is going smoothly. As long as the imperial court has sufficient food and grass, Xilin won't be able to resist for long. It will take at most two years to conquer Xilin. Nianqing will also have made great achievements, and the fiefdom of Huainan will gradually stabilize."
"Of course!" Su Qingwan knew what the princess meant. "Like you, I hope that the war in Xilin will end soon and Nianqing can gain a foothold in Huainan. Lu Jing is focused on stabilizing the government and people's livelihood. He will not compete with you for power. Even if he wants to compete for power, he will wait until the war is stable. Your Highness, don't worry, I will watch over him. No one will affect the war situation in Huainan. This is why I married Lu Jing."
"You don't need to tell me about these things. You know them all. On such a happy day, let's not talk about those things that spoil the fun. Xiaowu, have a good rest and be a beautiful bride. Lu Jing should be a good husband. It's actually quite good that you can marry him."
Su Qingwan didn't know whether the princess was sincere or just saying it for show, so she smiled and replied, "Yes, I also think Lu Jing is great, and I'm very happy to marry him."
The eldest princess raised her eyebrows, nodded, and stood up to say goodbye. She came and left in a hurry, leaving Su Qingwan uneasy. Sometimes she couldn't understand the eldest princess's thoughts.
She seemed to want to hold power in her hands, but she was afraid to do so. She seemed to be very defensive towards her, but occasionally some of her true feelings were revealed. It was really contradictory. She didn't know what the eldest princess was thinking or planning. She felt vaguely uneasy, but she also felt that since Lu Jing was around, she shouldn't have any wild thoughts.
Even if the sky falls, Lu Jing is still here.
When she realized this thought, Su Qingwan was shocked. Does she trust Lu Jing so much now?
