Chapter 188 Raising a crooked
In fact, Xuanyuan Ling really didn't remember who was in this audition. The ones he picked were not outstanding to begin with, but Chu Linglong's rescue did leave a good impression on him.
After all, I heard he was injured.
Xuanyuan Ling went to see the third princess first. He was relieved to see that the third princess was not injured, but at the same time he felt that Concubine Yu was not disciplining her well.
"Why would the Third Princess go to a dangerous place alone?"
How could Concubine Yu not ask this? She couldn't hold on any longer because of Xuanyuan Ling's questioning, and laughed bitterly: "She said that she saw that her mother was unhappy and wanted to go to the emperor. It was my fault that a child saw the clues."
Xuanyuan Ling frowned when he heard this: "You really shouldn't show it in front of the child, otherwise, I will think you are using Min Ning to win my favor."
Concubine Yu looked at Xuanyuan Ling in disbelief.
But he just had an indifferent face.
Concubine Yu asked herself how much she loved Min Ning, didn't he see all this? Now that he said this, did he think she did it on purpose?
In fact, Concubine Yu was overthinking it. After hearing what Xuanyuan Ling said, she didn't think Concubine Yu was lying. The bitterness on her face couldn't be faked. Concubine Yu only had Min Ning. She had been out of favor for some time. If she really wanted to use Min Ning to win favor, she would not be willing to do so and would not do so. So what she said was true. She was just warning her.
He originally felt that Concubine Yu's personality was such that she was afraid that the child would be raised astray. Now, his good wishes were not working, but bad wishes were working, and there were some signs of this.
Xuanyuan Ling hoped that this incident would teach Concubine Yu some rules, so he said calmly: "All the servants who follow the Third Princess will be punished, and a responsible maid who teaches the rules will follow the Third Princess and teach her princess etiquette. You must not stop the maid from teaching the princess."
Concubine Yu couldn't believe it when Xuanyuan Ling said that she used Min Ning to win favor. She was so devoted to Min Ning, but the emperor actually thought that this was her fault, didn't he?
She really couldn't get out of her thoughts. She felt that although Min Ning's behavior was a bit reckless, it was not wrong. She just wanted to see her father. What was wrong with that?
Why is the emperor so cruel that he doesn't even allow her to love her daughter? The child is just filial and just loves her as a mother.
But she forgot that a princess's proper conduct was not to disregard the etiquette between the monarch and the father and win favor for her mother. Instead, this little child was trapped in this small world of winning favor, without having a broader mind to act for herself. This was even more terrifying than when the Queen Mother used Xuanyuan Ling to win favor, because the child herself felt that she should do so. Concubine Yu had not yet realized that her resentment towards Xuanyuan Ling had already affected the third princess.
Didn't he think that once this precedent was set, if there was a child in the harem who wanted to take Xuanyuan Ling, he would have to perform for that child? Or was it only the third princess who could do this? Concubine Yu's vision was too focused on love, and she ignored everything else.
At the beginning, Xuanyuan Ling also felt sympathy for Concubine Yu's pain of losing her son, and felt that if the Third Princess was not raised by her, Concubine Yu would really not be able to bear it. But now she only hoped that the nanny could take care of her now, and it was not too late.
Xuanyuan Ling didn't plan to take back his decision regardless of whether Concubine Yu had figured it out or not. After leaving, he went to check on Chu Linglong.
Chu Linglong is a person in Concubine Ru's palace. Xuanyuan Ling only visits Concubine Ru once a year. She has really fallen out of favor. If she was not still one of the only three concubines in the palace, Concubine Ru's life would definitely not be so easy now.
When Concubine Ru heard about Chu Linglong saving the Third Princess, she sneered in her heart. Chu Linglong was really amazing and knew how to win people's hearts. She sent Concubine Zhou back home after she sprained her ankle and also gave her medicine. She also happened to see the Third Princess falling from the rockery and she even injured herself while trying to save her.
Just when I thought she was very busy since she had just entered the palace, Xuanyuan Ling came over.
As the mistress of a palace, Concubine Ru naturally had to go and pay a visit. She hadn't seen Xuanyuan Ling for a long time. Although she saw Xuanyuan Ling now because of Chu Linglong, she was really excited.
So when Xuanyuan Ling arrived, he saw Concubine Ru dressed in gorgeous clothes to welcome him respectfully.
Xuanyuan Ling: “…”
He didn't even want to give Concubine Ru a perfunctory response, and said directly: "I am here to look for Concubine Yi today. If Concubine Ru has nothing else to do, please leave first." Concubine Yi was Chu Linglong.
Concubine Ru's expression was a little frozen, but since Xuanyuan Ling had spoken, she could only agree, and then whispered: "Concubine Yi is a person in my palace. She is injured now, and I will take good care of her."
Xuanyuan Ling said "hmm" and went to find Chu Linglong.
Chu Linglong was recovering from her injuries. When she caught the third princess, her arms were injured for a moment, and then she bumped into something and couldn't lift them up. Now her arms were swollen and she had difficulty eating. Although the wound on her face was not deep, the scab and black line were still very obvious. And Xuanyuan Ling happened to come at this time.
Even though Chu Linglong is a generous person, she is not stupid. Now that she has entered the palace, it is impossible for her to remain without favor forever. She also wants to leave a good impression on the emperor.
Now, saving the third princess left a good impression, but the wound on his face made the emperor's first impression bad, didn't it? Fortunately, the wound was caused by saving someone, and it would not leave a scar.
But Chu Linglong didn't know at the moment that the first impression was quite important. After all, there was a pearl and jade before her. Xuanyuan Ling was amazed when she saw Shen Qing for the first time, and she was also amazed the second time. When she thought of her, the synonym for this little thing was that she was pretty.
However, Xuanyuan Ling now saw a blood scab on Chu Linglong's face. In fact, it was really disadvantageous to have an injury on the face, especially once the scar formed, no matter how beautiful she was before, she no longer looked good now.
Xuanyuan Ling couldn't quite remember what Chu Linglong looked like during the talent show. He only remembered that she was very honest. Now when he saw Chu Linglong, his first impression was that Chu Linglong was a good person, but her appearance was not that good.
But it's good enough that she is a good person. It's rare that she has the intention to save others. In fact, now that he has Chen Qing, he doesn't pay much attention to the appearance of other women. After all, it seems that no one can compare to Chen Qing. This little thing looks like his favorite look in his heart. Her eyebrows and eyes are exactly what he likes.
Not only has he not gotten tired of looking at her after two years, but now he thinks she is getting better and better.
It was the first time that Chu Linglong was so close to Xuanyuan Ling. It would be a lie to say that she was not nervous. Not to mention that he was the emperor, the fact that she was his concubine and would have to serve him in the future was enough to make her feel strange when she first met him.
It turns out that the emperor looks like this.
