Chapter 89
This time she was fined and grounded for half a year, which has never happened before.Although she was delighted that the prince did not pursue her crime last night, she became anxious after returning home.There are so many women in this palace, and all of them are worth a lot of money.She's not stupid, she's self-aware.Her appearance is definitely not outstanding in this palace, but the prince's favor on her is her most beneficial capital.

If she wants to survive in this palace, she must firmly grasp this favor.

When she was thinking about how to regain favor, the opportunity came, and the prince actually announced her to the hall.Although she didn't know what it was, she had to seize this unique opportunity.She had to let the prince see her beauty and remind him of his love for her.

As soon as she entered the door, she felt the eyes of everyone.She knew that she was already halfway there.Next, she had to be careful.

She was planning in her heart, but she didn't see King Zhongyi's livid face when he saw the necklace around her neck.

"Where did this necklace come from?"

Zisu was overjoyed, did the prince also think she was beautiful wearing this necklace?Zi Su was so overjoyed that she didn't even notice the anger in King Zhongyi's eyes when he said this.

"My lord, this necklace..." Zi Su was about to say that Aunt Lan gave it to her, but she thought about what happened yesterday.If you say it at this time, won't the prince feel suspicious of her again?Thinking of this, she changed her words: "This necklace was bought by my concubine."

"Bought it?" King Zhongyi tightly gripped the handle of the chair, his veins were exposed, showing how angry he was.But I don't know if Zisu is too complacent or what, usually she is the best at observing words and expressions, but she didn't notice King Zhongyi's anger, and she was still complacent.

"Yes, this necklace was bought by my concubine a month ago."

"Where did you buy it?" The undercurrent in King Zhongyi's eyes gradually calmed down, and his tone returned to calm.But in this hall, except for Zisu, everyone noticed his fury hidden under the calmness.Therefore, no one spoke at this time, and looked down at the floor, as if there were patterns on the floor.

Zisu's eyeballs rolled, wondering: "I can't remember myself."

"Oh?" King Zhongyi took a cup of tea and drank it, his tone was calm and breezy, with a hint of a smile on his lips.

"You can't remember where you bought such a beautiful necklace? It's a pity." He shook his head regretfully, put down his teacup, and said, "My lord thinks that you wear this necklace with outstanding aura. I was thinking of getting someone to buy some more for you, but you don’t know the location, which really puts me in a difficult situation.”

As soon as King Zhongyi finished speaking, there was the sound of grinding teeth in the hall.Those aunts looked at Zisu with eyes that wanted to tear her into pieces.Only the princess, the smile in her eyes is getting stronger and stronger.The corner of Ling Xihan's mouth curved slightly coldly, never realizing that her father was so dark-bellied.

Zisu was overjoyed, did the prince forgive her by saying so?She raised her eyes and looked at King Zhongyi timidly, her voice was soft and sweet.

"My concubine has been loved by the prince, and I am very grateful. I only wish to serve you for the rest of my life, and I will never leave." Zi Su said, looking at King Zhongyi affectionately, as if everyone in the hall was nothing.

A smile crossed the corner of King Zhongyi's mouth, but he glanced at Ling Xihan.

"Han'er, you haven't said what's the matter with asking everyone to come."

Ling Xihan rolled her eyes towards the sky, her father clearly saw through what she wanted to do, but pretended not to know, it was really a black belly.

"Report to father." Ling Xihan stood up lightly, "A few days ago, my mother entrusted her with a dream and said a lot to her."

King Zhongyi's eyes were moved, and his eyes were lowered.

"Really..." He looked at Ling Xihan with confused eyes, as if he saw a familiar shadow through her.The princess sitting next to him tightened her hand to play with the prayer beads, her lips pursed, but she didn't speak.It's just that there was a trace of coldness in the gaze towards Ling Xihan, and then he seemed to think of something, and the coldness gradually receded and turned into a flatness.

Although Ling Xihan kept looking at King Zhongyi, he was always paying attention to the expression of the princess from the corner of his eyes, and naturally he didn't miss the change of her expression, so he couldn't help frowning slightly.Judging by Wang Hao's appearance, it seems that there is no hostility towards her.But……

"What did your mother tell you?"

In the ear, there was King Zhongyi's low voice of inquiry with deep pain and guilt.Ling Xihan's heart skipped a beat, he sighed, and also sneered.People are dead, what's the use of commemorating them at this time?
"Mother said that she failed to raise me safely, and she was ashamed of her responsibility to a mother. Mother also said that she left me a lot of things, enough for my prosperity in this life..." Ling Xihan lowered her head, her voice a little dull. "After my daughter woke up, she blamed herself very much. For so many years, she has been insane and even forgot the anniversary of her mother's death. It is really unfilial. In vain, my mother entrusted me with a dream and gave me earnest instructions. My daughter felt sad. So I set up a spiritual throne for my mother in Yunmengju, and worshiped it in the morning and evening. But I never thought that when my daughter lit the incense, she couldn't light it. The daughter was terrified, whether the mother blamed me for not offering incense to her for many years, so Punishment?"

She paused, and then said: "Daughter heard people say when she was young, if the incense on the deceased relative does not burn, it proves that the death was in vain."

When the women in the room heard this, their hearts rose again, especially Zisu.The prince said before that it was Miss San who asked everyone to gather in the hall today.Now that Princess Ping's death is mentioned, is it related to her?

Perhaps because of a guilty conscience, Zisu recalled the past many years ago, and her mind gradually drifted away...

King Loyalty stared intently, and looked at Ling Xihan with thin lips tightly, with complicated eyes.

Ling Xihan lowered his brows and narrowed his eyes, with a gloomy expression of self-blame.

"When my daughter thought about what Yun said before her death that day, and learned that her mother's death was related to her, she believed it a little bit. But after so many years, why did the mother's grievances linger, but why can't she let go? Later, the daughter heard It is said that the master of Baohua Temple once said that if a person’s grievances persist after death, they can be suppressed with the most precious gold, silver and jade articles used during his lifetime. Especially jade articles have the effect of warding off evil spirits. So the daughter opened the Mother left the dowry to her daughter, but found that..."

Having said so much, I finally got to the point.King Zhongyi already had some guesses in his heart, and the aunts sitting in the hall also felt uneasy, and their faces turned slightly pale.They all lowered their heads, some of their collars were closed, their sleeves were hem full.The fool also understood that they were covering up.

Ling Xihan sneered in his heart, but his face showed fear and anger.

"My daughter found out that the dowry my mother left for me doesn't match the amount on the booklet..."

"Is Miss San right or wrong?" Before Ling Xihan finished speaking, Aunt Lu interrupted her with a smile. "Princess Concubine Ping's sister's dowry is huge and complicated. The third lady is probably confused. How could there be mistakes?"
