"Ah, I see. A man and a woman alone together, and Miss Li is gentle and dignified, beautiful and charming, knowledgeable and polite, well-informed and resourceful. So, the Crown Prince finally took pity on her."
Listening to the sea, as if discovering a new continent, he immediately volunteered with great enthusiasm.
Listening to the Rain and Listening to the Wind exchanged a glance.
Girls are more observant, after all. "But the prince is looking at his own hands."
"Hey, Tingyu, you're surrounded by men all day, you don't understand, do you? When a man and a woman are alone together, it's inevitable that they'll bump into each other, right? It's probably a big hand touching a small hand..."
That's a lot...
That makes some sense.
Even the wind seemed to nod in agreement.
Tingyu still expressed doubt.
And what about Miss Lingqin?
...
When Xie Lingqin returned to Qingshui Pavilion, it was quiet all around. She asked Zihe to fetch water, washed herself, and then quickly fell asleep.
Today was a very busy day, and I'm really exhausted.
The next day, Xie Lingqin slept until the sun was high in the sky before slowly getting up.
"Miss, the Seventh Princess left the palace about an incense stick's time ago."
In the courtyard, Zihe came in to report, a look of pleasure on her little face.
Xie Lingqin paused in her fussing over her hair.
This crown prince is quite efficient.
"No rush, let's wait until the princess returns to the Zongzheng government first," Xie Lingqin said, continuing to comb her hair.
Actually, it's just a random two strands of hair wrapped around each other, with a bunch in the middle.
It couldn't be simpler, just a jade hairpin stuck in the hair.
It was already as beautiful as a painting.
“Miss, you would look so beautiful with makeup on,” Zihe couldn’t help but exclaim.
Xie Lingqin put down the comb in her hand. "You're still young and inexperienced, so it's better to keep a low profile. Although..." Xie Lingqin flicked her hair, her starry eyes shining brightly, "you are quite beautiful."
Zihe...
She couldn't bring herself to praise him anymore.
"Then, Miss, shall we remain still?" Zihe was indeed curious.
Now everyone in the capital is waiting to see what the true cause and effect of the Zong government are.
"However, is my father going to make a move today?" Xie Lingqin asked.
Zihe shook her head. "No."
"No, we need to be even more careful."
"Miss, do you mean the general will make an issue of this?"
A cold look crossed Xie Lingqin's face. "If the Zong government is well, the Emperor's fear of the General's Mansion will remain the same as before. The General can never hope to regain his former glory. Do you think he would want the Zong government to be well?"
Zihe understood, understood, and was also alarmed.
It takes immense courage and wisdom for a young lady to survive in such dire circumstances.
"By the way, where's the giant clam?"
"She's been rummaging around in the kitchen since this morning, mysteriously saying she's going to make you some new soup that's good for your health, but I've watched for ages and still don't understand it."
Zihe sounded somewhat helpless.
Xie Lingqin smiled faintly, "Let her be."
"Miss, Miss, have some soup." Just then, Tridacna came in from outside carrying a tray.
The steaming soup smelled delicious.
"It's not hot anymore, it's just the right temperature to drink," Tridacna said.
Xie Lingqin glanced at her with a smile, didn't ask any questions, picked up the glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Zihe tried to stop her but couldn't. Although it looked better than the last time it was all black and mushy, ... Miss should still ask first, okay?
When did you become so careless, Miss?
Seeing Xie Lingqin drink it all without question, a flash of red light appeared in Tridacna's eyes as it lowered its gaze.
---Aside---
The Crown Prince is too tired to say anything today. He has issued a special decree: just treat Xinzhi well, that's all~
