Qin Kou'er also laughed. She thought Shu Lingxi was a rare and good woman. When Jun Yannuo arrived, she would make sure he helped Shu Lingxi fulfill her wish.
"However, Kou'er, you must understand the Emperor's feelings for Linxue!" Shu Lingxi sighed, her smile fading as she said, "When the Empress died tragically, the Emperor was so grief-stricken that he wanted to follow her in death several times. If Linxue hadn't had nightmares every night and always cried for the Emperor, the world wouldn't be like this today. So, you could say that the Emperor practically raised Linxue. Father and son depended on each other for survival, so their bond was exceptionally strong. Now that Linxue is getting married, think about how his parents feel! Moreover, the Emperor is inherently possessive, so even if he's satisfied with everything about your marriage to Linxue, the thought of his son being taken away by another woman will still make him unhappy!"
After saying that, Shu Lingxi added, "And the more you do, the more dissatisfied he will be! He'll think this woman is treacherous and only wants to steal his son! So, when it's time for the imperial concubine selection, you have to listen to me and act according to my instructions. I've been thinking about curing this problem of the Emperor for several years now, and I'll take this opportunity to properly discipline him! Humph!"
Qin Kou'er couldn't help but chuckle at Shu Lingxi's expression, "Alright! Then I'll follow the Princess's arrangements!"
Shu Lingxi happily took Qin Kou'er's hand and said with satisfaction, "With the two of us joining forces, are you afraid that those women in the palace can cause any trouble? Don't worry, with me here, they won't be able to cause any trouble!"
As she spoke, Shu Lingxi looked Qin Kou'er up and down and said with satisfaction, "I like you more and more the more I look at you! Oh, you're so good! Did you think what I said to the prince just now was a joke? Actually, what I wanted to say was that you should become a wife for the Lan family. But I wasn't talking about him. I was talking about Lin Xue, but he just had to think too much about it!"
At this point, Shu Lingxi and Qin Kou'er exchanged a glance and then burst into laughter.
The two sat and talked, growing closer as they spoke.
Qin Kou'er had been orphaned and alone since childhood, surrounded by a group of men. She had never had such a close and devoted sister before, so her feelings for Shu Lingxi were especially warm and genuine.
Just as the two were talking enthusiastically, someone outside suddenly announced that the Fifth Prince, Lan Xiuyuan, had come to pay his respects to the Princess.
Shu Lingxi and Qin Kou'er were both taken aback. What was Lan Xiuyuan doing here at this time? Besides, it was really strange that he came to see the princess.
Shu Lingxi clapped her hands at Qin Kou'er, "Okay, you come with me to the hall later, hide in the back and don't make a sound, let's listen together to what Lan Xiuyuan is doing here!"
Qin Kou'er nodded, "Then we should avoid Jun Yannuo when he comes later!"
Shu Lingxi nodded, then gave a few instructions to the people below, and finally said, "Please invite the Fifth Prince to the main hall!"
As he spoke, he pulled Qin Kou'er along and hurriedly walked towards the hall.
