Chapter 290: The eldest sister is always there
Zhao Lingmeng was in a good mood and smiled back at Princess Huaishu, which instantly made Huaishu even angrier. However, she was also worried that her father might be in a bad mood today, so she didn't do anything else. She could only glare at Zhao Lingmeng unwillingly and then look away.
Seeing that her elder sister was already seated, Zhao Shuiyun didn't want to bother with Yang Chengchen anymore. The most urgent task was to save the Third Prince.
"Eldest sister, please save the Third Prince!"
"I don't even know what the Lord Luo has done wrong, how can I save him? Besides, you are just a concubine of the Lord Luo. The legitimate Yue and Zhou families of the Lord Luo are not worried, so why are you so anxious?"
Zhao Shuiyun felt even more resentful when her elder sister kept calling her a concubine. It was clearly because her elder sister was reluctant to give up her achievements that she lost the position of principal wife. Now her elder sister still had the nerve to keep calling her a concubine. However, her crying became even more pitiful. "Eldest sister, the Third Prince and I are truly in love. Please, for the sake of our sisterhood, let him go!"
"You've really asked the wrong person for help. This matter has nothing to do with me. Although one of Lord Luo's minions stopped my carriage when I was returning to Yuanjing, I always take revenge on the spot, and that minion flew away on the spot."
When the people at the scene heard Princess Funing say this, they admired Prince Luo very much. Everyone in Yuanjing City knew that Princess Funing was now a prince, and she even had her own private army. How dare his men dare to stop Princess Funing's carriage? How stubborn they were.
Zhao Shuiyun didn't care about that. She just wanted to hold on to her elder sister. "Even if it wasn't you, can't you help me and beg for mercy for the sake of our being sisters?"
Zhao Lingmeng really didn't know where these people got their confidence from. They had been at odds with each other for a long time, and they still had the nerve to talk to her about sisterhood. The male and female protagonists of this original book are getting more and more weird:
"Oh, we're just on the same family tree. There's no such thing as sisterhood. And you and Prince Luo have been causing me a lot of trouble. If I don't take the opportunity to step on you, I'd be considered magnanimous."
Jin originally wanted to stand up and speak for Zhao Shuiyun. The enemy of my enemy is my friend! She would be very happy if she could morally blackmail Zhao Lingmeng. When she was about to take action, Zhao Anping quickly pressed her shoulder and whispered a threat:
"If you dare to interfere, you will no longer be a member of the Wu'an Marquis Mansion. You will go back to the Jin Mansion with Lord Jin later. You have to think carefully."
Jin's youngest son, Zhao Zhifu, also held Jin's hand tightly, not allowing her to stand up. Why would she cause trouble at this time? Her father and aunt would not protect her.
Seeing that Jin was still struggling, Zhao Zhifu whispered, "Mother, isn't it enough that you've hurt me and my brother? Can you please wake up a little?"
Jin looked at her youngest son kneeling beside her in disbelief. She had never known that her thoughtful son actually thought this way. She felt a mixture of emotions and had no time to get involved.
Wu'an Hou Zhao Anping was just feeling relieved when he saw that Jin had settled down, but then Zhao Shuiyun looked over.
Seeing her elder sister was so stubborn, Zhao Shuiyun had no other choice but to look at Zhao Anping and said, "Brother, please save us! I beg you."
Seeing this, Zhao Anping could only kneel in front and said with a righteous face: "The Wu'an Marquisate has always been loyal to the emperor. We will do whatever the emperor says. Even if the person standing here today was not this marquis, but your father, you would not get any other answer."
The emperor was quite satisfied with the Marquis of Wu'an's answer, and he had almost seen enough of the drama. "Yang Jingluo, you know what you did yourself. Don't embarrass yourself by biting people here. Go back and reflect on your mistakes!"
The third prince looked at his father's heartless eyes and felt that something was out of control. He remembered the person who broke into the base before and panicked.
"Your son obeys!"
After the Third Prince finished speaking, he kowtowed, held his son in one hand, and held the still-crying Zhao Shuiyun’s hand in the other, and walked away without even glancing at the still-kneeling wife, Zhou.
Rongpin was also dissatisfied with the Zhou family for not standing up to plead for mercy, so she followed the third prince to take her leave without even looking at Zhou who was still kneeling.
The Third Prince's Consort Zhou laughed at herself. Only now did she realize what a huge trap the Third Prince's wife had set her. However, if she could be the one to fill the hole, it would show the Zhou family how unreliable the Third Prince and her aunt were. She felt it was worth it.
She stood up with the help of her maid, bowed to the emperor politely, and gave her father a soothing smile from an angle where no one could see, then took her leave.
Zhao Lingmeng watched the drama come to an end and sighed softly: "What a pity!"
"Auntie, what's the pity?" Yang Chengchen had been with Zhao Lingmeng for a long time, and he was quite interested in this kind of gossip. It can only be said that the kind of person teaches the kind of apprentice.
Zhao Lingmeng glanced around and saw that the people in the hall were eating and drinking, and no one was paying attention to the two of them. Zhao Lingmeng then whispered to Yang Chengchen:
"My aunt feels sorry for your Third Emperor aunt. She awakened too late and is now unable to free herself."
Yang Chengchen thought about what happened to the Third Emperor's aunt just now, "Ah, it's really a pity, I think her hard days have not yet begun!"
Zhao Lingmeng stared at Yang Chengchen in surprise, very confused: "You, a little bean sprout, also know these things?"
"Aunt, don't underestimate me. There are so many women in my father's palace. I know a lot!"
Zhao Lingmeng placed the unique fruit on her table in front of Yang Chengchen, signaling Qiuyue with her eyes. "Don't get involved in that. Just protect your mother. Men should keep their eyes on the outside world."
"Don't worry, Auntie! My mother is very capable, but sometimes I feel for her..."
Zhao Lingmeng was speechless at the boy's nonsense without drinking. She immediately stuffed a grape into his mouth and looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Eat your food! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Yang Chengchen now knew that he had said the wrong thing and could only play dumb, "Hehe!"
"You are still young, don't think too much. Auntie still says the same thing, if you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish?"
Yang Chengchen nodded obediently. He understood what his aunt meant. Sometimes he just got a little carried away.
Yang Chengchen chewed the grapes in his mouth and said in surprise: "Aunt, this is delicious. You should eat it too. I wonder if my two cousins have a New Year's Eve dinner outside!"
Hearing this, Zhao Lingmeng also took a grape and tasted it. "It's good, but a little cold."
Yang Chengchen patiently explained, "Aunt, it's winter now. It's hard to keep the grapes here. I guess only your table and your grandfather's table have plates of grapes in the palace."
