Upon hearing the news from the palace, Xie Lingqin immediately slowed down her changing.
At this point, the Crown Prince also needs to go to the palace to discuss the matter, so why is she in such a hurry?
After slowly changing his clothes, he even had time to drink a cup of tea before taking Zihe out.
However, just before leaving the hospital, they discovered an extremely strange phenomenon.
That is, Zihe and Tridacna, who have always gotten along very well, are still as good as ever, but there is a strange and subtle feeling in their eye contact.
"Did you lend each other money?" Xie Lingqin lowered her eyebrows and asked, pulling the two of them aside.
"No."
The two spoke in unison.
"So you two..." Xie Lingqin looked at the two of them, her brows furrowing slightly, "have fallen for the same man?"
"Of course not."
The two spoke in unison once again.
Xie Lingqin's eyes narrowed. "Then tell the truth."
"This servant thinks it's best for Miss to be with the Crown Prince."
"This servant thinks it's best for Miss and Young Master Xu to be together."
The two were intimidated by Xie Lingqin's gaze and immediately spoke.
Xie Lingqin...
"If you two keep having these wild thoughts, I'll get rid of you both one by one."
Xie Lingqin patted each person on the head with a hint of threat, then waved to Zihe, "Let's go, leave the mansion."
"Oh, miss."
Behind him, the giant clam sheep awkwardly stepped forward.
Xie Lingqin glanced at her and said, "Speak."
"That young master Xu, I think..."
“Tridacna, the young lady is in love with the Crown Prince.”
"But I think Young Master Xu is really quite good. He's elegant and refined, has a scholarly air about him, and is so kind to Miss..."
“You…” Zihe was originally a reserved and calm person, and her tongue was not as sharp as Chequ’s. She could only say angrily, “If I had known, I would not have told you about Young Master Xu and Miss.”
Xie Lingqin looked at Zihe, then at Tridacna, and said, "I see you two are really interested in this. How about we marry you off to them?"
"No...no need."
The two immediately waved their hands.
"The giant clam will stay in the hospital, while the placenta will come with me."
Xie Lingqin's tone became serious, and the two exchanged a glance before saying nothing more.
Xie Lingqin appeared to be indifferent, but in reality, she was feeling depressed.
What the hell is going on? Yuwen Yao and Xu Yiran have even caused their two loyal maids to fight amongst themselves?
"Young Miss, I have something to report to you."
At the bend in the garden ahead, Xie Yushu suddenly rushed over and blocked Xie Lingqin's path, looking grave.
Xie Lingqin glanced around, then looked at him, her voice slightly softer, "What's wrong?"
"A letter came from home, wanting to arrange a marriage for me."
Xie Yushu finished speaking quickly, looking troubled.
Xie Lingqin...
"That's it?"
"Yes." Xie Yushu's expression became even more troubled.
"Why are you making such a big deal out of it, like someone's about to die?" Xie Lingqin rubbed her forehead. "Getting married is a good thing, it's nothing."
“But I don’t want to. I want to make something of myself in this capital. Being a good steward for the general is my priority, but I want to participate in the autumn examination next year and contribute to the Northern Rong dynasty. I…”
"Yes, that's a great goal. As my cousin, I'll give you my moral support."
Xie Lingqin nodded and gave Xie Yushu a gentle and refined smile. Then, while Xie Yushu was still in a daze, she waved her hand, took Zihe with her, and with a flick of her sleeve, left without taking away a single cloud.
Xie Yushu...
The young lady just left like that? Without even asking him any questions.
"Oh, right."
Xie Lingqin stopped again after walking a short distance and came over.
Xie Yushu's handsome face lit up with joy, his eyes brightening slightly. He immediately stepped forward, "Young Miss, do you want to help me...?"
Has anything unusual happened in Father's study lately?
Xie Lingqin asked.
Xie Yushu was taken aback, his eyes narrowed, and then he replied, "No, Miss. The general entered the palace today, and the guards outside the study did not loosen their guard at all."
"Okay, I understand."
After Xie Lingqin finished speaking, she turned around and left for good.
"Really, you're not going to help me anymore." Xie Yushu looked dejected, hanging his head and sighing. "I haven't even told you yet, but I heard that the young lady my family introduced me to is coming to the capital soon. What am I going to do..."
Of course, there was silence all around, and no one paid any attention.
Xie Yushu thought about it and then went to discuss it with Tridacna.
However, she was probably unlucky today. Xie Lingqin had only gone a short distance from the General's Mansion when she ran into Ding Wenxian.
There are too many words about Xie Lingqin in the capital now, and her fame has become too great, which is not a good thing.
Therefore, Xie Lingqin could not be ostentatious at this time, so she did not take a carriage, but instead took Zihe along a side road.
Yuwen Xian was clearly surprised, and his gaze toward Xie Lingqin was deep and complex.
Behind Yuwen Xian, Qingyi held medicine in his hand.
Xie Lingqin recognized at a glance that these medicines were the same prescription that Elder Dong had given to Yuwen Xian last time, which was said to cure his hidden dementia.
Speaking of which, after she tricked him that night outside the city, dressed as a man in black, there hasn't been much news about Yuwen Xian in the city lately.
"Xie Lingqin, it's broad daylight, aren't you afraid of being kidnapped by bad guys if you walk here with your maid?"
Yuwen Xian spoke first.
Xie Lingqin was slightly taken aback, then smiled mockingly, "Is Your Highness a bad person?"
"Ha, of course not."
"but……"
Xie Lingqin changed the subject, "Today is neither the first nor the fifteenth of the month, and the Emperor has not issued an edict to lift the Prince's confinement order, so, Your Highness, this is..."
