"nerve!"
"ill!"
Simeng and Siyi silently complained to themselves, then turned around impatiently to call the waiter to prepare water for their bath and clean clothes.
Granny Zheng came out and stood at the door, her ears fully focused on listening to the sounds coming from inside the room.
"Why did you call me here?" Lin Shuang couldn't understand why Princess Zhaoping had brought her back at this time.
Her plan fell through, and she was now of no use to Princess Zhaoping.
Princess Zhaoping said, "You don't need to hide it from me anymore. I have witnessed your abilities. However, that bandit is too wary. No one else can get close to her. Only you managed to stay by her side for a year."
“But I’ve already been kicked out by her,” Lin Shuang said bluntly, looking at Princess Zhaoping with little interest: It’s true that she desperately needs a new master;
But Princess Zhaoping is such a foolish master, and with the Empress Dowager above her, she won't achieve much even if she gains Princess Zhaoping's favor and trust.
The master to whom she was to serve in the Frost
They must be someone who wields immense power, or someone who has the potential to wield immense power in the future!
“I know you have a way. As long as you can help me get close to the prince, I will give you a box of gold and silver jewelry that I brought with me as part of my dowry.” Princess Zhaoping looked at Lin Shuang with urgent eyes, as if she were her last lifeline.
Princess Zhaoping, having grown up in the palace, should know, even if she were foolish, why the Empress Dowager had suddenly become so cold towards her and even avoided her for the past six months.
Even between mothers and daughters, members of the royal family must offer each other benefits for the relationship to last.
The Ninth Prince has won another victory and his momentum is at its peak, which must be making the Empress Dowager and the Emperor uneasy.
As the most beloved princess of the Empress Dowager, if she could not gain the favor of the Ninth Prince at this time and consolidate and ease the relationship between the Ninth Prince and the royal family, it would be her incompetence and dereliction of duty!
(Bunny: Kid, you're getting off track.)
Lin Shuang knew that Princess Zhaoping had a problem. Although Ji Fengyao did not say what the problem was, the only thing she was sure of was that Princess Zhaoping absolutely could not consummate her marriage with the Ninth Prince!
As long as the Ninth Prince is brought down
That also means we've cut off the bandit's backer!
Lin Shuang's eyes darted around, and she smiled, "Two boxes, and I'll help you get the Ninth Prince."
"Really! You can really help me get the prince!" Princess Zhaoping was overjoyed.
"Fine, if you don't believe me, then forget it," Lin Shuang said, turning to leave as if to make a show of it.
"I believe you! I believe you! I'll give you two boxes of dowry!" Princess Zhaoping, disregarding the dirt on Lin Shuang's clothes, excitedly rushed forward, grabbed her arm, and said impatiently, "If you're not sure, I'll give you one box as a deposit right now!"
"It's inconvenient to carry these things around, just give me cash instead." A glint of shrewdness flashed in Lin Shuang's eyes, her smile filled with deep disdain and smugness.
So what if the bandits took all her treasures?
Princess Zhaoping, that idiot, still came crying and begging to send her money.
Once she returns to the capital, there will be plenty of good masters waiting for her to choose from!
One day!
She wanted to make that bandit regret not cherishing her and treating her well today!
To be fair, Lin Shuang's mind does work quickly. In the short time it takes to bathe and change, she has devised a perfect plan for Princess Zhaoping to get close to Shang Xiye, taking into account the personalities of Shang Xiye and Ji Fengyao.
