Chapter 33: Peony Garden Sings and Harmonies
Shen Yuling returned to the Prince's Mansion from the Imperial Palace, where she admired flowers and played with birds every day.
I don't have to coax the guy in the palace during the day, and I rarely see Feng Moheng. Life is so comfortable.
In addition, although she is the legitimate princess of the Prince's Mansion, she does not have to worry about many affairs of the mansion now.
Feng Moheng handed over all matters in the mansion to the housekeeper.
In addition, there is Aunt Yinyi sent by the eldest princess, who is also in charge of many affairs in the mansion.
She felt a lot more relaxed without having to manage these things.
However, the servants in the mansion are the kind of people who treat people differently based on their status.
Although Liu Jingyi's status was lower than Shen Yuling's, the treatment she received in the mansion was almost the same as Shen Yuling's.
Even because of Feng Moheng's favor towards her.
The courtyard where Liu Jingyi lived was built even more luxuriously.
Paintings by famous artists are hung on the walls, and rare and precious ornaments can be seen everywhere. It truly has everything you need, displaying an atmosphere of wealth.
On the contrary, in the room of Shen Yuling, the legitimate princess, there were many priceless items, which were her dowry brought from the northwest.
For example, there is the large huanghuali carved screen with dragon and phoenix patterns, and the inlaid blue and kingfisher-inlaid screen with flower and bird patterns.
It was exquisite and was specially prepared for her by her mother.
Feng Moheng stayed at Ninglan Courtyard last night, which not only irritated Quan Minghe, but also Liu Jingyi.
The level of stimulation is far from enough.
Shen Yuling sat on the swing she had someone build for Ninglan Courtyard and swayed gently.
She had to give Liu Jingyi a deeper stimulation.
Let Liu Jingyi no longer believe Feng Moheng's words.
Presumably, Feng Moheng's explanation to Liu Jingyi last night was just to repay her for saving his life on the cliff, and also to show it to the eldest princess.
Liu Jingyi is also pitiful.
But there must be something hateful about pitiful people.
Shen Yuling has no sympathy.
Liu Jingyi has been controlled by Feng Moheng over the years.
She believed everything Feng Moheng said.
Since that’s the case, let Liu Jingyi take a good look at what the real Feng Moheng looks like.
"Master, Liu Jingyi is now enjoying the flowers in the peony garden." Xitong reported softly.
A faint smile appeared on Shen Yuling's lips.
"Then let's go and put on a good show for Liu Jingyi."
After saying that, Shen Yuling tiptoed and got up from the swing.
She calmly adjusted the hem of her skirt.
Peony garden.
Peonies of various colors are blooming, vying with each other in beauty. The flowers are so gorgeous and beautiful.
There is an exquisite peony pavilion in the center of the courtyard, with a stone table and stone benches inside.
Opposite the Peony Pavilion is an elegant Peony Pavilion.
The window was half-closed, and through the carved window lattice, one could vaguely see the interior layout of the house.
There are also rockery arranged in an orderly manner in the garden.
No wonder Liu Jingyi chose this place to appreciate the flowers. Sometimes when people are in a bad mood, looking at these beautiful scenery can really help them relax a lot.
Shen Yuling walked lightly and gracefully to a few peonies that were about to bloom.
At this moment, the peony buds are like shy girls waiting to be married, tightly wrapping their delicate faces, yet faintly revealing a vigorous energy that is about to bloom.
"Xitong, pick all these buds that are about to bloom. When my husband returns home in the evening, I will put them in a vase and send it to him."
Shen Yuling instructed softly.
"Yes, Master."
Xitong began to reach out to pick the flowers.
He picked the fruits and laughed and joked.
"His Highness the Prince said yesterday that the master has a faint fragrance and hoped that the master could embroider a scent bag for him."
"But you, my master, only sent him a vase of flowers. How lazy you are."
Shen Yuling's face flushed immediately and she glared at Xitong in embarrassment and anger.
"Don't talk nonsense. How can a sachet be embroidered in just a few moments?"
"I just think this flower is very pretty. If my husband looks at it more, he will feel happier."
"You also know that he has been busy with official duties recently. He has to comfort Liu Ji when he returns home at night. He is tired physically and mentally."
Shen Yuling paused.
"If this flower can make my husband relax a little, it would be the best thing."
Xitong's eyes rolled.
He said, "Then why don't you invite His Royal Highness the Prince to have dinner at the Peony Pavilion in the Peony Garden tonight?"
"This garden is full of beautiful scenery. Sitting in the Peony Pavilion, you can have a panoramic view of the entire garden. His Royal Highness will surely be delighted to see it."
Shen Yuling lowered her head slightly, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes.
Then he raised his eyes and looked around at the picturesque scenery.
"What you said does make some sense, but I don't know if my husband is free tonight."
"I can't guarantee that Liu Ji will not use the grace of saving my life in the past to blackmail my husband and force him to go to Sujinyuan..."
When Shen Yuling said this, her tone couldn't help but drop a little.
After a moment of silence.
"Forget it. When His Royal Highness returns home, you can send someone to invite him. If His Royal Highness is really busy, then don't bother him too much."
“Yes.”
Behind the rockery, Liu Jingyi was originally quietly admiring the flowers.
Feng Moheng stayed at Shen Yuling's place last night, which really made her feel bad.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yuling also came, but the more she listened to the conversation between the master and servant, the uglier her expression became.
Why does Shen Yuling seem so close to Mo Heng in both her words and deeds?
Why did Shen Yuling know that she had saved Mo Heng's life?
What does Mo Heng look like in front of Shen Yuling?
Is the relationship between Mo Heng and Shen Yuling really just a show to deal with the eldest princess?
Too many questions popped up in Liu Jingyi's mind.
Because Feng Moheng was the male protagonist, she always had full faith in his character.
She also always felt that if Feng Moheng said he loved her, he meant it sincerely.
If one day I no longer love her but fall in love with Shen Yuling, I will tell her the truth and will never hide anything.
Can......
Reality seemed to give her a hard slap in the face.
Liu Jingyi hid behind the rockery.
He couldn't help but clench his fists tightly, digging his nails deeply into his palms.
But she seemed not to feel any pain, her heart filled with sudden suspicion and resentment.
At this moment, he even wanted to rush to Feng Moheng and question him clearly.
But reason was pulling at her in her heart, telling her to stay calm.
On the other side, Shen Yuling spoke again.
"Xitong, go back to Ninglan Courtyard. Go pick out a dress that's suitable for the occasion, in case your husband comes to the Peony Garden to have dinner with me later."
After saying that, Shen Yuling casually glanced in the direction of Liu Jingyi.
A slightly meaningful smile appeared on his face.
Walk away gracefully.
After Shen Yuling walked away, Liu Jingyi's personal maid Li Su saw that her master was uneasy.
With a worried look on his face, he said, "Master, you can't believe everything the Princess says. The Prince has always doted on you, so how could he be like what the Princess says?"
"You are here at the Peony Garden today. If the Princess asks around, she will definitely know."
"She is deliberately saying this now, it must be to alienate you and the prince. You must not be fooled by her and believe her words!"
After hearing Li Su's consolation, Liu Jingyi's emotions, which had been surging like waves, calmed down a little.
Maybe Shen Yuling really knew that she was here, so she said those words on purpose.
I didn't expect that the naive and innocent heroine in the original text would do such a scheming thing.
It seems that the heroine's personality has changed a lot after the hero was taken away by her.
Liu Jingyi snorted softly.
If the heroine really becomes very different from the original character, then the hero probably won't like her either.
She raised her leg to leave the peony garden.
But just as I took a step, I suddenly thought of something.
The footsteps paused.
Shen Yuling wants to invite Feng Moheng to have dinner here in the evening. In that case, then why not stay and take a look!
See how the two of them get along.
What you hear is not as good as what you see!
Thinking of this, Liu Jingyi turned back.
As it was less than an hour before dinner time, she went to the Peony Pavilion to rest and wait for Feng Moheng and Shen Yuling to come.
