More than half a month later, the jade pendant incident, which has caused a lot of trouble in the city, is solved. The Crown Prince found the jade pendant, but killed the thief by mistake in the process of fighting.
However, the Emperor did not punish him for this, therefore, others are not qualified to say anything.
However, at the same time, a rumor gradually spreads in the capital. People are talking about this in their spare time. It is said that the jade pendant given by the Emperor is presented to the Emperor by the Third Prince. As for how the Third Prince got it, it's a long story...
All the people in the capital know more or less about the story of the Third Prince, who tricked the daughter of the chief of the Nanga tribe in order to obtain jade pendants. Moreover, it becomes an even more impressive and wonderful story with more color added to its making.
The story is even being played in the biggest tavern in the capital.
Yan Ling feels funny when she sees the man in white costume on the stage behaves as if he had experienced it.
After a sip of tea, Yan Ling turns around and looks at Liang he, "you really bear grudges."
"Do I? No, it's all his own deeds. What's more, it's not easy to solve the problem. Alright. Of course we need to give him a good lesson after he caused us so many troubles." Liang He says as if nothing were important.
At the same time, in the Third Prince's House, Liang Yi is so angry that he almost smashes his study.
This morning, the Emperor called Liang Yi to the Palace. Before Liang Yi reacts, he is scolded by the Emperor severely.
Liang Yi is confused for being scolded, but he doesn’t know what to say, so he can only obediently lowers his head to listen. After listening for a long time, Liang Yi realizes that it is someone who has created a drama about how he got the jade pendant and made it known to the whole city.
At the beginning Liang Yi thought that the Emperor was blaming him for his recklessness and he was scared to speak. However, Liang Yi realized later that the Emperor just despised him for handling things improperly and let people know the scandal.
Liang Yi remembered that he promised at that time that he would find out who spread the news, and that he would warn those who play the drama.
On hearing this, the Emperor almost faints for being angry. He immediately throws the fold in his hand on Liang Yi's head. Liang Yi is unprepared for this and gets hit. Then blood heads begin to ooze out on his head.
"Is this I taught you? Don't you understand the truth that the more you try to cover up a scandal, the more it stinks? Now can you stop them spreading this if you do this? It just makes them think you're guilty!" The Emperor seems to be very angry.
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Liang Yi knows that he is wrong. Before he could beg for mercy, he is ordered by the Emperor to stay in his House for half a month and thinks about it deeply. No action is allowed.
Naturally Liang Yi can see that his father is really angry this time. How dare he plead for himself? So he had to bite his teeth and went back to his House.
Princess Zhaoyan actually married her maid Yuling off who is close to her. She even lets Yuling leave her House immediately, although people say that Yuling’s dowry is very rich and Yuling has a very good master.
However, Yan Ling still doesn't understand. Yan Ling has not known Princess Zhaoyan and Yuling for a long time so she doesn’t know how close they are.
However, there is one thing that Yan Ling is very sure of. Princess Zhaoyan thinks highly of the maid and trusts her very much. Even for this thing this time, it's unnecessary to drive Yuling out because Princess Zhaoyan knows the fact.
However, it’s other people's affairs after all. When Yan Ling heard it, although she was a little surprised, she didn't ask much. Maybe people will lose their curiosity about everything when they get older.
However, even more out of Yan Ling's expectation, Princess Zhaoyan comes to her a few days later.
Yan Ling looks at the invitation in her hand over and over for several times, and confirms that it is her name on it, not Yan Shuang’s.
For Princess Zhaoyan's sudden appointment with her, Yan Ling naturally feels very surprised. Last time it was a Hongmen banquet. What is the purpose of this time?
Although she doesn't understand, Yan Ling feels from her heart that Princess Zhaoyan is a very worthy person to make friends with. As far as Yan Ling herself is concerned, she likes the character of Princess Zhaoyan very much.
Before that, the reason why there is no in-depth communication is also because of Yan Shuang. This time, Princess Zhaoyan actually offers her an invitation, and there is no reason to refuse her.
Yan Ling takes Liyi and Qingyu to go together on the appointed day.
Princess Zhaoyan said that she wanted to go hunting together. The meeting place is the North Mountain hunting ground. Yan Ling feels that such a movement is suitable for Princess Zhaoyan.
However, when she gets to the place, Yan Ling finds that Princess Zhaoyan doesn't seem to be excited but depressed.
Yan Ling thinks about it, and guesses that Princess Zhaoyan is unhappy because of Yuling’s leaving.
Yan Ling doesn't know how to comfort her. She sighs and says, " Each has his own ambition. If Yuling doesn't want to stay here, then her heart will be somewhere else even if you keep her."
At the beginning, Yan Ling thought that Princess Zhaoyan was disappointed with Yuling and let her go because Yuling, as a person she trusted, lied to her for protecting others.
However, when she sees Princess Zhaoyan's look, Yan Ling knows she guessed wrong.
However, Princess Zhaoyan's words once again break her conjecture: "it's not Yuling who wanted to go, it's me who drove her away."
Obviously Yan Ling didn’t think that it would be like that. She asks curiously, "why should you drive her away now that you are reluctant to do so?"
Princess Zhaoyan smiles bitterly, "what could I do even if I didn't want that? It's
okay if it’s someone else, but I grow up with Yuling. She didn't trust me. How can I keep her by my side anymore? "
Yan Ling suddenly becomes silent. She understands what Princess Zhaoyan has been thinking about. Princess Zhaoyan is a straightforward person, and such a person usually cannot tolerate betrayal.
To a certain extent, what Yuling did cannot be called wrong, but it's a big mistake in Princess Zhaoyan's eyes.
Princess Zhaoyan never fears that her people make mistakes. She just fears that the person she takes as a sister or a family member doesn’t trust her.
That is the reason why Princess Zhaoyan insisted on driving Yuling away even if she was upset in her heart.
If it is true, Yan Ling doesn't know what she can say. However, Yan Ling doesn't notice that Liyi quietly lowers her head.
