Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

Chapter 15
After receiving Su Lingxi's call, Xu Jianing's brain became hot, and he secretly sent someone to deliver the post to Ling Youyao.

When Ling Youyao received the post, she was counting her dowry.

"May I ask who sent the post?"

Lu Bao shook her head: "I don't know, I just said that her lady wants to invite you to Zuixiaolou tomorrow."

Ling Youyao fell into doubts. Except for Shen Qiongyu, she did not have any friendship with the daughter of the family.

Yinzhu raised her head from the ledger: "Maybe some young lady wants to make friends with you."

Ling Youyao browsed the post carefully, perhaps because she was afraid that she would not go, the other party added a sentence "I have something important to ask" on it.

Did he really come to ask 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 the Marquis of Changping, Xu Jianing asked eagerly, "How is it? Has the item been delivered to Princess Jing?"

"Don't worry, princess, everything is done."

Hearing this, Xu Jianing's vacillating heart gradually settled down, and the only thing she can ask for now is Ling Youyao.
Early the next morning, Ling Youyao went out with two maids.

After arriving at Zuixiao Tower, she didn't go in, but went to the teahouse next door, picked a seat facing the street and sat down, quietly waiting for the lady to arrive.

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

Ling Youyao took a bite of mung bean cake, without denying it: "I always have to see who the other party is before deciding whether to go or not."

"What if it's a Hongmen banquet?"

Lu Bao answered, "The princess is really getting smarter."

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

"Your maidservant didn't say anything." Lu Bao's voice paused, and suddenly saw a carriage stop in front of Zuixiao Tower: "Princess, look—"

Ling Youyao turned her eyes and saw a girl coming out of the carriage: wearing a begonia red jacket with lotus patterns, holding a girl's hair in a bun, with gold silk eight treasures and pearl hairpins inserted obliquely, her face is beautiful, and the word "rich and honor" is shining all over her body. .

After Yinzhu saw the girl clearly, she was surprised and said, "Isn't this Princess Duanyang?"

Ling Youyao squinted her eyes, and she understood: "Go, go and have a look."

Lu Bao recalled the scene where Princess Duanyang kicked a woman away in the palace that day, and was inexplicably frightened: "Princess, why don't we go?"

Yinzhu also showed worry: "This servant feels that Duanyang Princess is not kind, so let's go back."

The princess is so delicate and weak, how can she compare to Princess Duanyang, who has practiced martial arts since she was a child?
Ling Youyao said: "She said in the post that she is asking for something. Besides, Marquis Changping will leave for the northwest in a few days. No matter how stupid she is, she will not make trouble at this juncture."

Yinzhu wanted to say something else, but Ling Youyao said again: "If there is a real fight, can I run away?"

The two maids were speechless.

Fine!

Xu Jianing, who had already arrived at Zuixiao Tower, didn't see anyone, his heart fluctuated, and he asked the maid beside him, "Are you sure you've handed over the post to Concubine Jing?"

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

"Idiot!" Xu Jianing yelled coldly, "I asked you to hand it over to Concubine Jing!"

Lan Xin's face turned pale, and she knelt down with a puff: "The palace is heavily guarded, and slaves can't get in, that's why..."

Just when Xu Jianing was about to explode, the waiter's voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "This is it, Princess, please—"

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

At this time, Ling Youyao had already walked in, and when she saw Xu Jianing, she pretended to be surprised and said, "So it's the princess, I don't know why the princess called me here today?"

The moment Xu Jianing saw Ling Youyao's face, he lost his mind for a moment: It really looks very similar to Ling Qingwei!
Seeing her staring at her, Ling Youyao couldn't help wondering: "Princess?"

Xu Jianing came back to his senses, and looked at Ling Youyao with more pity in his eyes: "I invited the princess to come today because I want to ask for something."

Ling Youyao sat down opposite her, and said with a smile: "In terms of family background, I can't compare to the princess, what does the princess want from me?"

She lowered her eyes and said slowly: "Now I'm going to Ningzhou, my father said that he will find me a marriage there."

Ling Youyao remained silent, waiting for her to continue.

"It is said that when you marry, you have to marry someone you like. I have loved Zilin for many years." Xu Jianing raised his eyes to Ling Youyao, tears glistening, "I don't want to marry anyone but him."

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

"Why did the princess tell me this? Everyone in the capital knows your affection for the prince, so there is no need to tell me again."

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

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

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

Ling Youyao was taken aback: "What are you doing? Hurry up and help the princess up."

Yinzhu and Lubao hurried forward to help her, but they were thrown away.

Xu Jianing's eyes were full of tears: "Don't worry, I won't compete with you for the position of princess, as long as you let me stay by brother Zilin's side, I am willing to be a concubine."

Ling Youyao suddenly felt that one head was as big as two, Fu Mingjue really did a lot of harm!
She sighed helplessly: "But what's the use of telling me these things? The prince has already expressed his attitude. You should know better than me what kind of temperament he is."

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

faint!
Ling Youyao raised her forehead, how did she realize 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, most of her body was hanging outside the window, and she would fall if she was not careful.

"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 out like this.

Xu Jianing looked at her coldly: "If you don't agree, I'll jump off from here! To the outside world, you said that you hated me for ruining your wedding banquet, so you pushed me down."

Ling Youyao laughed angrily, she really underestimated her!
After Xu Jianing made such a fuss, sharp-eyed people immediately spotted a person hanging outside Zuixiao Tower.

"Look, why does that girl stand so high? How dangerous!"

"It would be terrible if it fell!"
