Luoyang Brocade Chapter 250: Intention (1)
Princess Yan, who was standing next to Queen Xu, frowned slightly and looked at Ling Jingshu carefully.
She is indeed a rare and beautiful girl. His calmness, composure and wit are also admirable. With King Yan's romantic temperament, there is no reason why he would not be tempted when he saw such a girl.
Empress Xu was particularly fond of her, and she must have had the idea of letting her marry King Yan as a concubine...
It is impossible to say that you don't mind at all when you think about this kind of thing when you are newlyweds and you are deeply in love. However, it is not appropriate to talk too much on such occasions, let alone reveal your thoughts.
Princess Yan maintained a slight smile and quietly clenched her hands hidden in her sleeves.
Empress Xu knew that she was suffering from a strange illness and could not get close to men or marry. What was the purpose of repeatedly mentioning this matter in public?
Ling Jingshu thought about the lightning flash in her mind and secretly guarded her. She still declined in a humble and respectful manner: "The daughter of the people has thanked the Queen for her love, but the daughter of the people really did not mean this."
Queen Xu did not press any further: "That's all, since you insist so much, I can't force anyone to do anything."
Queen Xu mentioned this matter with great fanfare, and then let her go so lightly?
Ling Jingshu smiled and thanked her, but she was still wary.
Empress Xu did not look at Ling Jingshu anymore, and sighed to Wei Jieyu with a smile: "Since Luzhu left, there is no one around me who I can talk to. I have thought about choosing some more suitable people. When a woman enters the palace, it’s a pity that she never gets what she wants. Now there is one, who is smart and clever. I really like her when I see her."
...The meaning behind these words made Wei Jieyu's heart suddenly sink. He quickly glanced at Ling Jingshu, but saw that Ling Jingshu's expression also changed slightly.
It seems that Ling Jingshu also sensed that something was wrong.
A series of thoughts flashed through Wei Jieyu's mind, but she followed Empress Xu's words and said, "I don't know which girl is so lucky to fall into the eyes of the Empress."
Queen Xu chuckled softly and said in a friendly and insulting tone: "It's just that others are not familiar with my temper. You have served me for several years, don't you still understand my temper? It's still useful. Do you know who it is until you open your mouth and ask me?"
Wei Jieyu could hardly stop laughing, so she forced out a smile and replied: "How dare you, my concubine, to speculate on the Queen's thoughts?"
Empress Xu glanced at Wei Jieyu, who was pretending to be dumbfounded, with a half-smile: "You have been a maid beside me for more than ten years. After so many years, no wonder you can't hear me. The palace’s wishes.”
Wei Jieyu's heart sank.
Queen Xu’s meaning is already obvious.
The person she falls in love with is Ling Jingshu! She wants Ling Jingshu to enter Jiaofang Palace!
Just like myself back then.
No one here is a fool. Who can fail to see such an obvious thing? The queen's "favor" is a gift that cannot be refused. Now Empress Xu only spoke half of her words, clearly waiting for Ling Jingshu to take the initiative to speak.
Logically speaking, being able to accompany Empress Xu in the palace is a happy event. In the future, Empress Xu will make the decision, and a good marriage will be just around the corner.
Now Queen Xu's attitude is ambiguous, which makes people a little unpredictable.
In what name will Ling Jingshu enter the palace? After entering the Jiaofang Palace, should I be a palace maid or a female official? After entering the palace, Queen Xu will let her out in a year and a half, or will she stay for a few more years? If Empress Xu wants to keep Ling Jingshu for a few years and delays important events in her youth and life, wouldn't Ling Jingshu lose more than she gains?
……
Sun’s expression also changed.
She hoped that Ling Jingshu would win the favor of a noble man and successfully marry into the prince's palace in the future. But I never expected that Queen Xu would show up like this.
The Crown Prince and Empress Xu are at odds with each other, and there will be a "fierce battle" sooner or later. The Ling family has already chosen the prince's side. What will happen if Ling Jingshu comes to Queen Xu?
No!
This matter must not be nodded!
Even if you try hard to anger Empress Xu on the spot, you still have to decline politely.
Ms. Sun made up her mind and said heartily: "Empress, my concubine is brave..."
Before he finished speaking, Ling Jingshu's voice sounded beside him: "Empress, the daughter of the people has something to say. If there is anything I didn't say, please forgive me."
Girl, please don’t say something you shouldn’t say on impulse.
Sun was secretly anxious, but she did not dare to stop Ling Jingshu in public, so she could only watch as Ling Jingshu became the focus of everyone again.
Empress Xu looked at Ling Jingshu with a gentle and kind smile in her eyes: "If you have anything to say, it doesn't matter. I just forgive you!"
Only Ling Jingshu can see how much malice is contained in Queen Xu's smile.
The calmness of the past few months turned out to be just the calm before the storm.
Empress Xu never thought of letting her go from beginning to end. I've just been secretly looking for the most suitable time to take action!
Thinking about it now, Wei Yan's "diagnosis", "prescription" and "treatment" for her in the past few months must have been hidden from Empress Xu's eyes and ears. Queen Xu knew that she was suffering from a strange disease, but she still couldn't tolerate her being so close to Wei Yan.
Today's trip to Jiaofang Palace was originally a trap set by Queen Xu. Without noticing, she got in and it was impossible to escape safely.
However, Empress Xu must not have imagined that this matter would also be an excellent opportunity for her who was bent on revenge.
She wants revenge, but has no chance. Staying at Ling's house every day, there are very few opportunities to go out, let alone get close to enemies. Now the opportunity to get close to Queen Xu is right in front of her.
Even if the road ahead is unclear and dark, even if there are countless conspiracies and tricks waiting for her, she will stand up straight and go for it!
"What the Empress and Empress Jie Yu said just now~IndoMTL.com~ The girl of the people dared to ask shamelessly, I wonder if the person the Empress likes in her heart is a girl of the people?" Ling Jingshu raised her head slightly, with a smile on her pretty face. Flushed with joy and excitement.
Empress Xu's eyes flashed and the corners of her lips raised: "You girl, you are really smart. Yes, the person I am talking about is you. Since you have guessed my intention, I wonder if you are willing to enter the palace. Accompany me?"
Ling Jingshu knelt down without hesitation and responded loudly: "Of course the people's daughter is willing. Being able to accompany the Queen and listen to the Queen's teachings every day is what a people's daughter wishes for. The people's daughter thanks the Queen for her grace!"
As he spoke, he knelt down respectfully and kowtowed in thanks.
Everyone: "..."
This scene is unexpected and almost ridiculous.
Of course, no one has the guts to make irresponsible remarks in front of Queen Xu. Then, all eyes fell on Ling Jingshu.
After today, this beautiful and intelligent girl will definitely become famous in the capital. (To be continued.)
