Xie Lingqin finished speaking in one breath, with a smile on her face.
I don't think I'm shameless at all.
There was no other way; given the current situation, she had to find a powerful backer to make General Xie think twice.
so……
She looked up at the Crown Prince.
Xie Lingqin's smile was so gentle, it was unparalleled.
"good."
The Crown Prince said.
Xie Lingqin was surprised.
You agreed so easily?
She's clearly pushing her luck, isn't she? She's just waiting for the Crown Prince to speak so she can bargain.
"What, aren't you leaving yet? Do you really want to stay here overnight?" The Crown Prince's tone suddenly turned cold.
Xie Lingqin touched her nose. Spring came too quickly, and she was a little unaccustomed to it. There was also snow mixed in.
"In a little while, I'll have Zihe take you to the treasury to get some soft cotton fabric to take back," the Crown Prince's voice drifted over again.
Even the usually composed and aloof Xie Lingqin nearly stumbled, but luckily she managed to grab onto a nearby table. Then, in slow motion, she turned around and stared at Tai in disbelief.
The prince remained seated there with an air of arrogance, sipping his fragrant tea as if he hadn't said a word.
But why is he suddenly being so nice to her? What is his motive?
I'm not at ease.
"Your Highness, actually, regarding the issue of cotton cloth, I..."
"You may only take one horse," the prince said.
Xie Lingqin...
"No, I mean..."
"What, do you mean you want to empty the Crown Prince's residence?"
The tone suddenly rose, and Xie Lingxin felt a pang of sadness.
Could you please not be so loud?
Really.
It seems like the whole world knows she's on her period.
"Very well, thank you, Your Highness."
Xie Lingqin turned around and left the room.
However, as soon as I opened the door, the air around me felt so much better.
It was too oppressive being in front of the Crown Prince just now.
Zihe visibly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xie Lingqin come out, and quickly stepped forward to ask, "Miss, are you alright?"
"Yes, thankfully, you're alive." Xie Lingqin's expression remained unchanged. After speaking, she noticed Tingfeng, who was standing beside the Crown Prince, looking over. She slightly lowered her brows before looking at Zihe. "Did you hear that? The Crown Prince asked you to come with me to get some cotton cloth."
Zihe was startled. He heard it, of course.
It was precisely because I heard it that I was so shocked.
There shouldn't be any hidden traps in the treasury.
She glanced quietly at Tingfeng.
"Guardian of the Wind..."
Tingfeng said he was completely bewildered and had no idea.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll guard the treasury, there won't be any ambushes." At this moment, a slender and capable woman in black jumped down from a nearby tree.
"Sister Tingyu..."
Zihe called softly, a hint of joy in her voice.
Xie Lingqin glanced at the woman in front of her.
He looks like a capable person who has been through many battles.
Listen to the wind, listen to the rain, listen to the sea...
This prince is truly elegant.
"Any of you still have any listening to the tide?" Xie Lingqin asked softly, almost instinctively.
Tingyu smiled upon hearing this, "Yes, but she's not in the capital."
Xie Lingqin's eyebrows twitched.
Yes, there really is.
However, this "listening to the rain" is quite endearing.
“Miss Lingqin, come with me, I’ll take you to get the fabric.” Tingyu stretched out her hand and led the way.
Xie Lingqin nodded slightly. "Thank you."
Nabu went smoothly as expected; there was no ambush.
Xie Lingqin secretly concluded that everyone in the Crown Prince's residence, except for the Crown Prince himself, was adorable.
Zihe was quite skilled in light-body techniques; carrying a bolt of cotton cloth, he quickly led Xie Lingqin back to Qingshui Pavilion.
The moonlight is dim, and the stars are shining.
"Zihe, teach me lightness skill." Xie Lingqin looked at Zihe and felt that in this place where people would devour each other without spitting out bones, it would be difficult to escape without some lightness skill.
Zihe looked at Xie Lingqin, "Miss, this..."
"You don't want to?"
"No, it's just... From the moment we entered the Crown Prince's residence, the Crown Prince instructed us not to pass on our martial arts skills. If we were to pass them on, we would have to report to the Crown Prince and get his permission."
It's the Crown Prince again!
Xie Lingqin sighed and waved her hand, "Never mind what I said."
Zihe watched Xie Lingqin stride forward and imagined that the young lady must have been hurt by the Crown Prince at the Tai family mansion, otherwise she wouldn't have acted like that.
However, so far, apart from Li Qingyu, the eldest daughter of the Minister of War, only her daughter has been able to be alone with the Crown Prince and walk out in such a proper manner.
Moreover, the Crown Prince even gifted the young lady cotton cloth to make... menstrual belts.
Just thinking about it is unbelievable; it's absolutely earth-shattering.
Of course, the task of making menstrual belts should be left to giant clam shells.
Because, the young lady said, her hand skills were really bad, and it made her feel uncomfortable.
However, Zihe knocked on the door for a long time without receiving a response from Tridacna. Her heart tightened, and she gently pushed the door open.
Under the moonlight, the room was empty; there was no trace of the giant clam.
Speaking of which, when she left Qingshui Pavilion with her mistress earlier, Tridacna left the courtyard mysteriously. She wanted to ask her about it, but her mistress told her not to worry about it.
Now...
He hasn't come back yet; I wonder if something bad has happened to him.
Zihe's mind raced, and she quickly walked towards the main house.
Upon hearing Zihe explain the situation, Xie Lingqin, who was about to get off the bed, said, "Don't rush, wait a moment..."
"Miss, Miss."
Before Xie Lingqin could finish speaking, Tridacna entered the main house from the courtyard under the moonlight.
A hint of smugness flickered across her round face.
"Did you find gold?" Xie Lingqin asked.
“No, Miss.” Tridacna waved her hand. “This servant did some things for you.”
