Doting on concubines and destroying wives? I don’t want to be the mistress of the Hou clan anymore.

Chapter 102 Climbing high
Lin Miaofu wrote a letter to Gu Zhao when she returned and asked Lou Chang to send it to her.

"Mr. Lou, you have worked hard these days."

Regarding how to treat the second princess, in addition to discussing with Gu Zhao, of course, we also need to explain it to Lou Yun, so as to explore new ideas and check for any gaps.

Lou Yun was surprised when she first heard it, and couldn't help but sigh at Lin Miaofu's luck.

I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse to be involved with so many people of high status.

"If I interact with the second princess, I will inevitably draw Yongyi into the prince's camp. However, if I behave in a tepid manner, I am worried that the second princess will be unhappy. When His Highness the prince ascends the throne, it will affect Go to the Duke’s Mansion.”

Lou Yun twirled his beard and said with a smile: "The eldest lady is in the middle of the game. The authorities are confused."

"Ah?" Lin Miaofu exclaimed softly and looked at Lou Yun in confusion.

"The second princess is married after all. Even if she is the same mother as the prince, she is just a woman after all." Lou Yun said: "The eldest lady and the second princess hit it off immediately and have a close personal relationship, but they may not necessarily treat the prince as Which camp the government will fall into. The key to this depends on how our prince behaves in front of the emperor."

"What we say about the relationship between the two does not count. Your Majesty knows it well."

"Are you saying that it doesn't matter what you do, it all depends on how His Majesty views His Royal Highness?"

"That's right." Lou Yun nodded: "If Your Majesty belongs to His Highness the Crown Prince and inherits the throne, then Your Highness the Crown Prince's interactions with the courtiers will be acquainted with political affairs and lay the foundation for becoming a famous king in the future."

"But if His Majesty dislikes His Royal Highness, then whatever he does is just forming cliques for personal gain."

"Thank you, Mr. Lou, for clearing up the confusion," Lin Miaofu said, "Since the second princess has asked His Majesty about this matter, he must have tacitly approved it, so I don't need to worry unfoundedly."

Lin Miaofu said: "Mr. Lou, please tell the prince what we said today."

"Okay." Lou Yun asked before going out, "Miss, aren't you curious about what I've been doing these days?"

Lin Miaofu shook her head: "I'm a little curious, but I also know that things are done in a secret way. When the dust settles, I will ask about the details."

"Young lady is indeed very wise."

Lou Yun was in a happy mood and left with a smile.

Gu Zhao replied and said just follow your heart.

The day of the trip to Xiangshan came soon. Lin Miaofu did not dress up deliberately this time, trying not to look so eye-catching.

But she had someone dress up Lin Shuangyue well.

"Although I don't know the second princess's intention, since he also invited you, you can't ignore it."

"But I dress up like this... I'm afraid I'm covering up my sister's charm." Lin Shuangyue was a little drunk and restless, and felt that her dress was too heavy.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. In the past, I was still too ignorant, thinking that I had no clues, and that I could attract everyone with my appearance without dressing up.

By now this sense of superiority has disappeared.

Sure enough, there are so many skilled craftsmen in the world.

This makeup amplified her advantages, giving her a touch of freshness and elegance, but it was so strong that people couldn't take their eyes away.

Looking at the bright and charming girl in the mirror, Lin Miaofu raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said, "That's how it should be. You are at a marriageable age and you are bright and beautiful. If you can win the favor of the second princess, you will definitely have a future." Cousin..." Lin Shuangyue looked at Lin Miaofu who was really happy for him, and felt mixed emotions in her heart.

"You and I, sisters, should be honest with each other." Lin Miaofu said with a smile: "Since you want to stay in the capital, of course, we should help each other. If you can live a good life, I will naturally benefit from it."

As for the second uncle and second aunt, Lin Miaofu would never date them.

And with Lin Shuangyue as a buffer, at least there won't be any jokes.

"Thank you cousin for making it happen."

The two of them were waiting at the door hand in hand. Although the second princess would send someone to pick them up, it didn't mean that they could wait for someone to invite them in the house with peace of mind.

After getting on the princess's carriage, the second princess glanced at Lin Shuangyue. There was a hint of surprise in her eyes, and then she shook her head slightly with a little hesitation.

The two of them looked incomprehensible and felt even more uneasy.

This trip was just for the purpose of climbing high, looking far, and expressing my feelings.

When she arrived at Xiangshan Camp, Lin Miaofu discovered that Gu Zhao was also there and had arrived before herself.

She also saw Liang Yuqi, but she just glanced at him and then looked away.

The two looked at each other across the crowd. Lin Miaofu couldn't help but widen her eyes, and couldn't help muttering in her heart, why didn't he tell her?
The second princess saw the confusion in her eyes and knew that Gu Zhao had not told her about this. She couldn't help but said with a smile: "Don't you know that he is on the list this time?"

"I really don't know."

"Then you don't know that this trip to Xiangshan will last for several days. In addition to climbing, there will also be an autumn hunting competition."

The second princess smiled a little narrowly and said: "We usually stay apart, but this year Your Majesty thought it was troublesome, so we got together."

"That's it." Lin Miaofu didn't expect that Gu Zhao didn't say anything.

In her previous life, Lin Miaofu had never participated in such activities, and even Liang Yuqi had never told her the details.

"Is there any significance in this?" Lin Miaofu kept glancing at Gu Zhao and said, "The prince is still in his filial piety period, can he participate in such an event?"

"Your Majesty's permission." The second princess said with a smile: "Don't you know that Gu Zhao won the first place when he first participated in the Autumn Hunting at the age of ten. That year, his father said that if someone could If you beat Gu Zhao, you will give him a job as the commander of the Jinwu Guards, so from that year on, Gu Zhao has to end up every autumn hunting."

Lin Miaofu quickly covered her mouth and asked with a shocked look on her face: "Doesn't that mean that the Crown Prince has never been defeated in all these years?"

"Yes." The second princess said, "But it may not happen this year."

Lin Miaofu thought about Mrs. Jiang's death and what happened to Duke Ding. Maybe this would affect Gu Zhao's mood and make him unable to calm down and take the written examination. She couldn't tell if he would really lose his temper. Got this job.

"If it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..." Lin Shuangyue bit her lip, as if it was difficult to speak, and said, "I don't know how Your Majesty will punish him."

"What's the point?" The second princess said nonchalantly: "Although he is powerful, there are others outside the world. If he really tried his best and still lost to others, my father will not embarrass him, so you can Stop worrying about your future brother-in-law."

Lin Miaofu raised her eyebrows.

The second princess' attitude towards Lin Shuangyue seems to be a little different. Could it be that the purpose of this meeting is not for herself but for Lin Shuangyue?
