Seeking each other

After receiving Su Lingxi's advice, Xu Jianing's mind got excited and he secretly sent someone to deliver the post to Ling Youyao.

Ling Youyao was counting her dowry when she received the post.

"Can I ask who sent the post?"

Lu Bao shook his head: "I don't know. I just said that her young lady wants to invite you to get together at Zuixiao Tower tomorrow."

Ling Youyao fell into doubt. Except for Shen Qiongyu, she had no friendship with the daughter of the aristocratic family.

Yin Zhu raised his head from the account book and said, "Maybe some young lady wants to make friends with you."

Ling Youyao took the post and browsed it carefully. Perhaps because he was afraid that she would not go, the other party specially added the sentence "I have something important to ask for" on it.

Did he really come to her for help?

"Princess, are you going tomorrow?" Lu Bao asked.

Ling Youyao pressed the post under the candlestick and said: "Go, but we have to go secretly."

After the maid who delivered the post returned to Changping Hou Mansion, Xu Jianing asked eagerly: "How was it? Has the thing been handed over to Princess Jing?"

"Don't worry, Princess, everything has been taken care of."

Hearing this, Xu Jianing's wavering heart gradually calmed down. The only person she could ask for now was Ling Youyao.

Early the next morning, Ling Youyao went out with two maids.

After arriving at Zuixiao Tower, she did not go in. Instead, she went to the teahouse next door, chose a seat facing the street and sat down, quietly waiting for the young lady to arrive.

Yin Zhu stood aside and waved a fan for her: "The princess came so early just to see who the lady in the post was?"

Ling Youyao took a bite of the mung bean cake and did not deny it: "I always want to see who the other person is before I decide whether to go or not."

"What if it's a Hongmen Banquet?"

Lu Bao answered: "The princess is really getting smarter and smarter."

Ling Youyao glared at her angrily: "Weren't you smart before?"

"My slave didn't say that." Lu Bao paused and suddenly saw a carriage stopping in front of Zuixiao Tower: "Princess, look -"

Ling Youyao turned her eyes and saw a girl coming out of the carriage: she was wearing a begonia red coat with lotus patterns and a girlish bun, with a golden eight-treasure hairpin inserted sideways. .

After Yinzhu saw the girl clearly, he said in surprise: "Isn't this Princess Duanyang?"

Ling Youyao narrowed her eyes and understood: "Let's go and have a look."

Lu Bao remembered the scene when Princess Duanyang kicked a woman away in the palace that day, and felt a little frightened for no reason: "Princess, why don't we go?"

Yin Zhu also looked worried: "I feel that Princess Duanyang's visit is unkind, so we should go back."

How can a princess who is so delicate and frail be compared to Princess Duanyang who has been practicing martial arts since she was a child?

Ling Youyao said: "She said in the post that she has something to ask for. Besides, the Marquis of Changping will leave for the northwest in the next few days. No matter how stupid she is, she will not cause trouble at this juncture."

Yin Zhu wanted to say something more, but Ling Youyao said again: "If there really is a fight, can't I run away?"

The two maids were speechless.

Fine!

Xu Jianing, who had arrived at Zuixiao Tower, saw no one. His heart was fluctuating, and he asked the maid next to him: "Are you sure you gave the post to Princess Jing?"

Lan Xin hesitated and said: "Princess, my servant gave the post to the concierge of the palace, and he said he would pass it on to Princess Jing."

"Idiot!" Xu Jianing shouted coldly, "I want you to hand it over to Princess Jing with your own hands!"

Lan Xin's face turned pale, and she knelt down with a thud: "The palace is heavily guarded, and the servants can't get in, so..."

When Xu Jianing was about to have a seizure, the waiter's voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "This is it, Princess, please——"

Hearing the sound, she straightened her clothes and said to Lan Xin: "Okay, get up."

At this time, Ling Youyao had already walked in. When she saw Xu Jianing, she pretended to be surprised and said: "It turns out to be the princess. I wonder why the princess called me here today?"

The moment Xu Jianing saw Ling Youyao's face, he was stunned for a moment: he was really very similar to Ling Qingwei!

Seeing her staring at her, Ling Youyao couldn't help but wonder: "Princess Princess?"

Xu Jianing came back to his senses and looked at Ling Youyao with a hint of pity in his eyes: "I invited the princess here today because I have something to ask for."

Ling Youyao sat down opposite her and said with a smile: "I am not as good as the princess in terms of family background. I wonder what the princess wants from me?"

She lowered her eyes and said slowly: "Now I am going to Ningzhou. My father said he would find a marriage for me there."

Ling Youyao remained silent, waiting for her to continue.

"They say you should marry someone you like, and I have been loving brother Zilin for many years." Xu Jianing raised his eyes and looked at Ling Youyao, with tears in his eyes, "I don't want to marry anyone but him."

Ling Youyao's face gradually became serious, and it was really because of Fu Mingjue.

"Princess, why are you telling me all this? Your affection for the prince is known to everyone in the capital, and there is no need to tell it to me alone."

Xu Jianing's face stiffened: "Yes, I know I shouldn't go to the palace that day, but it was precisely because of this that my father was sent to the painful place in the northwest by the Holy Emperor."

"If I really follow my father's wish and get married in Ningzhou, I will never be able to return to the capital for the rest of my life!"

As she spoke, she suddenly stood up and knelt down in front of Ling Youyao.

Ling Youyao was startled: "What are you doing? Help the princess up quickly."

Yin Zhu and Lu Bao quickly stepped forward to help her, but their hands were thrown away.

Xu Jianing's eyes filled with tears: "Don't worry, I won't compete with you for the position of princess. As long as I stay with brother Zilin, I am willing to be your concubine."

Ling Youyao suddenly felt that one head was as big as two, Fu Mingjue was really harmful!

She sighed helplessly: "But what's the use of telling me this? The prince has already expressed his position. You should know better than me what his temper is."

"No, you are different." Xu Jianing grabbed the hem of Ling Youyao's skirt in excitement, "Brother Zilin will marry you, which means you still have a place in his heart. As long as you tell him, he will definitely agree.

!”

faint!

Ling Youyao held her forehead, how did she know that she could speak in front of Fu Mingjue?

"Princess, this matter"

Before she finished speaking, Xu Jianing suddenly rushed to the window, stepped out with one foot, and most of his body was hanging out of the window. If he was not careful, he would fall.

"Princess!" Lan Xin was startled and wanted to come over to pull her, but she stared back.

Ling Youyao was shocked, she didn't expect Xu Jianing to come like this.

Xu Jianing looked at her coldly: "If you don't agree, I will jump out of here! Tell the public that you pushed me down because you hated me for ruining your wedding banquet."

Ling Youyao laughed angrily, she really underestimated her!

When Xu Jianing made such a fuss, someone with sharp eyes immediately discovered a person hanging outside Zuixiao Tower.

"Look, why is that girl standing so tall? How dangerous!"

"It would be terrible if it falls down!"
