After the divorce, King Zhan cried and begged me to remarry
Chapter 496: Scheme against each other
Seeing Chu Nanli say this, the interest in Lu Xinyue's eyes suddenly became stronger.
"Is it really okay? But, I don't understand anything. Will it delay your business?"
Lu Xinyue looked at Chu Nanli expectantly, seeming to be particularly looking forward to Chu Nanli's answer.
"Of course you can, as long as you have a good heart."
She just wanted to go to Ji Ci Courtyard, but Chu Nanli had no intention of stopping her.
"That's true. I didn't know anything at first. Fortunately, Nan Li didn't dislike me and taught me a lot. Now that I think about it, I really caused you a lot of trouble at that time."
Lin Xuan'er remembered that when she and Chu Nanli first met, she really learned a lot from Chu Nanli.
It was indeed a blessing for her to get to know Chu Nanli.
"Your relationship is so good."
Lu Xinyue's face was full of envy, and she pretended to be casual and said: "When I was in Lingnan, few people were willing to be friends with me. My two concubines at home couldn't get along with me, and there were always people outside who said I bully them."
"Really? I heard that the Princess of Lingnan is very strict. Could something like this happen in the back house of the Prince of Lingnan?"
Her words resonated with Lin Xuan'er.
Growing up, Lin Xuan'er had been tricked by Lin Fuying a lot. If she hadn't been smart enough, she would have been tricked to the point of being deceived by Lin Fuying.
"My mother-in-law is just a superficial beauty," Lu Xinyue accidentally mentioned a sad incident, and her expression became a little depressed, "Father, he is a man after all, and he certainly can't change the common problems of men."
"You don't know how much I admired Mrs. Liu when I learned that she dared to reconcile with Prime Minister Lin."
It was related to the family affairs of the King of Lingnan, and Lin Xuan'er knew not to say anything more.
But Lin Xuan'er naturally agreed 100% with Lu Xinyue's praise of her mother.
She nodded: "Thanks to Nan Li, if she hadn't woken me up, my mother and I might still be staying in the Prime Minister's Mansion now!"
"That's great. It would be better if I could get to know you earlier."
Lu Xinyue seemed to be moved by the friendship between the two of them, and she couldn't help showing a touched look on her face.
The hidden meaning in her words was so deep that at least Lin Xuan'er didn't understand the meaning.
Lin Xuan'er only felt that Lu Xinyue was simply envious and didn't have many other thoughts.
"Actually, I have to say that making friends depends on chance."
She couldn't help but continue following this line of conversation, "Actually, I never thought at the beginning that Nan Li and I would know each other, but maybe it was the fate of becoming friends that we naturally got to know each other."
"So, between friends, you still have to be sincere."
Lin Xuan'er's words were actually just pure emotion.
But in the ears of Lu Xinyue, who had ulterior motives, it became a kind of irony.
She always couldn't help but think too much. Could it be that Lin Xuan'er wanted to use these words to mock her for overestimating her abilities in wanting to be friends with them?
Before Lu Xinyue came to the capital, she had secretly inquired about everything that had happened in the capital in the past few months.
She and her father had been planning for a long time to enter the capital this time, and part of the plan naturally included getting close to Chu Nanli.
Otherwise, why would she, the majestic Princess Changping, have to be so humble and friendly with a commoner?
Even Lin Xuan'er, the daughter of the prime minister, is still not enough in Lu Xinyue's eyes.
Her expression quickly returned to normal, and she agreed with a smile: "I feel the same way, but it's a pity that I couldn't make any true friends when I was in Lingnan, and it's even more so when I arrived in the capital."
With her status, it is naturally impossible for her to take the initiative to make friends, she can only hint like this in her words. But Chu Nanli and Lin Xuan'er didn't know whether they didn't understand what she meant, or they were deliberately pretending not to understand, so things never went as she expected.
Especially Lin Xuan'er, who has been talking about her deep friendship with Chu Nanli since just now, which makes Lu Xinyue extremely bored.
After all the food was eaten, Lu Xinyue still failed to get her wish and make friends with the two of them.
"I happen to still have time right now. Can I go with you to visit Ji Tzu Yuan?"
Since the goal was not achieved, Lu Xinyue certainly could not give up like this.
She had said this, and she was sure that Chu Nanli and Lin Xuan'er would not refuse.
But Chu Nanli had no intention of rejecting her.
While it was still early, the three of them went directly out of the city gate and arrived at Ji Ci Yuan on the outskirts of the city.
Due to the events that happened one after another during this period, Chu Nanli actually had not been to Jici Courtyard for some time.
The appearance here has really changed a lot compared to the beginning.
There were a few children of about three or four years old playing at the door. When they saw the carriage approaching, they all dispersed with a roar and ran in.
As a princess, Lu Xinyue had never been to such a shabby place before. She immediately frowned and did not dare to let her embroidered shoes touch the ground.
What should she do if the dust on the ground soiled her newly made dress?
As soon as the carriage stopped, Lin Xuan'er walked in ahead of them and went to find the steward.
Even Lu Xinyue's little move escaped Chu Nanli's eyes.
But she said nothing.
In the end, Lu Xinyue sorted out her emotions and got out of the carriage with the help of the maid.
When the two of them entered, Lin Xuan'er was already playing with the children.
"Miss Chu, I heard that it was all your credit that Ji Ci Yuan was able to be established in the first place?"
Lu Xinyue followed Chu Nanli, still not forgetting to get close to her.
She thought she was hiding her dislike for these children very well, but in fact she couldn't hide it at all.
"It can't be attributed to me alone. I just contributed some money. It's thanks to everyone that Ji Ci Yuan is what it is today."
Not to mention anything else, at least Lin Xuan'er put in a lot of effort in this.
Chu Nanli sighed deliberately, "But now it's just the superficial beauty. After all, there are so many children here, and they have to hire people to take care of their daily life. It's a bottomless pit. Now we have to make new clothes for these children, and it's A lot of money needs to be spent.”
Short of money?
Upon hearing this, Lu Xinyue's eyes lit up.
She was worried that she couldn't find an opportunity. Now, wouldn't this opportunity come to her door?
Lu Xinyue had no doubt at all that Chu Nanli said these words deliberately.
First of all, she and Chu Nanli have not known each other for a long time, and she still doesn’t know Chu Nanli’s character.
Furthermore, Lu Xinyue wanted to be friends with Chu Nanli out of a calculating mentality.
In fact, she didn't take Chu Nanli seriously at all, with a bit of contempt from beginning to end.
