“Princess, you need not doubt my sincerity. If I were one of those bandits, I would be with them in the Northwest right now, instead of being abandoned here like trash.” Lin Shuang’s words revealed her resentment and bitterness.
Come to think of it: what kind of confidant is someone you don't keep by your side?
Princess Zhaoping calmed down and nodded, indicating that she would no longer shout, and asked Lin Shuang to let go.
"What ability do you, a mere servant, have to discuss cooperation with me?" Knowing that Lin Shuang had no backing, Princess Zhaoping regained her pride, straightened her posture, and became aloof.
Lin Shuang looked at this fool, sneered, and reached out to grab the teapot on the table. The teapot on the table flew into her hand automatically.
"Is this skill enough?" Lin Shuang looked at Princess Zhaoping with great pride and self-satisfaction.
Princess Zhaoping was horrified: "You! Who are you? No, are you human or demon?!"
"Heh," Lin Shuang was extremely satisfied with Princess Zhaoping's reaction and also enjoyed the sense of superiority that she brought fear to others: "This servant is naturally a human, but this servant has now cultivated immortal techniques and is no longer an ordinary mortal. If it were not for the princess to cooperate, this servant would not have told the princess such an important secret."
Immortal arts?
Isn't that divine intervention?!
Princess Zhaoping was shocked. Her gaze towards Lin Shuang changed from disdainful indifference to joy and admiration in an instant: "Since you have such abilities, why do you still want to cooperate with me?"
"Although I have cultivated immortal arts, in this mortal world, in the eyes of you lowly mortals, I am still just a servant. You are the noble princess of the Great Zhao Dynasty, and the principal wife of the Ninth Prince. There are some things I can only do by using your status, such as getting close to the Ninth Prince and getting rid of that bandit," Lin Shuang said through gritted teeth, feeling resentful.
Princess Zhaoping raised an eyebrow in surprise, her eyes filled with undisguised joy: "You also hate that bandit?"
"I was blind before, thinking she was a good person, and I was deceived and fooled by her! Who knew that she was already a married woman, yet she stole the person I loved most, leaving me unable to have my love for the rest of my life. This hatred is irreconcilable." In order to gain Princess Zhaoping's trust, Lin Shuang did not hesitate to reveal her true feelings and hatred.
"What! She...she actually dared to betray Brother Xiye and have an affair with another man?" Princess Zhaoping was extremely shocked and found it hard to believe!
In her heart:
Shang Xiye's image is like that of a deity; to gain his favor is to gain the whole world.
How could anyone bear to betray and humiliate him like this!
After the initial shock, Princess Zhaoping was suddenly filled with rage. She gripped the bedsheet tightly with her fists and asked, "What do you want me to do for you? As long as you can get rid of that bandit, let the prince see her true colors, and drive her away, I will do everything I can to help you and cooperate with you."
“Princess, you don’t need to do anything for me. After all, you don’t hold a high position in the Prince’s heart.” Lin Shuang didn’t care whether her words would hurt Princess Zhaoping’s feelings. She smiled faintly and said, “Princess, you only need to take me with you to the Northwest. I will take care of the rest myself. You can just observe and enjoy the fruits of your labor.”
"It's that simple." Although Princess Zhaoping found Lin Shuang's words a bit harsh, compared to the benefits she mentioned, this little grievance was nothing.
Lin Shuang glanced at Princess Zhaoping with disdain, and said with a smug look, "It's that simple. Don't make any decisions on your own, or you'll end up losing more than you gain and ruining my plans."
