"So, now you know how cunning she is, she's already prepared a way out for herself. But for now, all you need to do is stay out of the palace. As for the Seventh Princess... I believe that with Ning Xiang as a threat, she has all the initiative in her hands and doesn't really want to hurt herself. However..." Xie Lingqin's gaze tightened, fixing on Zong Zhengxu, "Just in case, cousin, you should still tell Ning Xiang to lay low for a while."
Zongzheng Zhao's expression froze for a moment, then he asked, "At this time?"
Xie Lingqin nodded, "Yes, that's the time."
"Lingqin, do you have any ideas?" Yu Ruyi stepped forward.
Xie Lingqin smiled, "Let's give it a try, although there might be some repercussions..."
Xie Lingqin stopped talking and gestured for the others to gather around before whispering, "Uncle, Aunt, you two go back to your courtyard now. Don't worry about anything, don't ask anything, just keep quiet and look dejected. In the evening, go out of the mansion together to the busiest tavern in the capital, order some dishes and a pot of wine. You don't have to drink, but you must act like you're drinking with a heavy heart and deep sorrow."
Zong Zhenghao and Yu Ruyi were somewhat confused. At this time, wouldn't their actions invite criticism?
However, they trusted Xie Lingqin. This niece had truly changed; she was composed, resolute, and unlike any ordinary woman.
Nodding, Zong Zhenghao cooperated readily, "Okay, Uncle, Aunt will listen to you."
"As for Grandpa..." Xie Lingqin smiled and whispered something to the group.
"Master, Madam, Young Master, something terrible has happened! The princess has fainted."
Just then, a maid knocked nervously on the door.
Zongzheng Hao, Yu Ruyi, and Zongzheng Xu all tensed up, but Xie Lingqin had a cold smile in her eyes.
That's just in time!
