Chapter 114: A Last Resort

Last night's soothing tea made Zheng Lingyi sleep very deeply, almost dreamless all night, and when she woke up, Lu Nong had already gotten up to fetch her breakfast.

Chunshui ordered a little maid to serve and freshen up, and she asked hesitantly with the rouge powder box, "Sister, do you need this incense powder?" ”

Seeing that Zheng Lingyi shook her head, the little maid stared at her face that was still far superior to others without powder, and muttered, "One doesn't need it, and the other doesn't like to use it." ”

The Lu family came very early, and sent someone to send a letter when the rooster crowed, probably because it was calculated that Princess Ping would come when she finished breakfast.

At this time, it was almost the same, but Princess Keping was busy all day yesterday, ate a lot of wine, and surprised Zheng Lingyi when she fell into the water, she should have had a good rest, but Lu Shi had to hold up a lot of energy to deal with it.

Princess Ping's first cup of tea in the morning was ginseng tea, and the bittersweet taste made her feel bad.

In addition, she and Lu Shi already had a mustard in front of them, and when the two met, a cold face was on an embarrassed face, and the atmosphere was so stiff that people couldn't breathe.

Fortunately, Shen Qin came with Zheng Lingyi, Lu Shiqiang smiled and wanted to speak, but was blocked by Shen Qin's undisguised disdainful eyes.

"I've seen the princess."

Zheng Lingyi blessed Princess Ping first, and then turned to the Lu family and said, "Thank you, Madame, for coming to pick me up in person." ”

"What are you doing to me, boy? I was scared last night. Don't be afraid, it's all over. ”

This motherly face is really uncomfortable in the stomach, and I almost want to vomit.

I have to say that Lu's ability to pretend is indeed first-class, if it weren't for Shen Qin's direct or indirect understanding of her true face, I'm afraid that she would also be deceived.

Zheng Lingyi didn't speak, with a detached smile on his face.

When she turned to Princess Ping, the smile on her face changed slightly, and she seemed much more sincere.

"Thank you Princess Ping and the county lord for taking care of you last night, and taking care of them."

Princess Ping got this thanks, in fact, she was a little unhappy, after all, Zheng Lingyi fell into the water in King Ping's mansion and was ugly.

But at the same time, she also complained in her heart, why did they fight for them, why did they choose the Pingwang Mansion as a battlefield and ruined a poetry and painting appreciation party for her.

Everyone has a selfish and dark side, and Princess Ping is a layman who has entered the world, so it is naturally the same.

However, when Zheng Lingyi said the words of thanks, Princess Ping felt a little weaker and said: "Don't say the word 'thanks' again, I feel very uncomfortable this night, but I'm afraid that you will fall into some kind of illness in the future." ”

The root cause of Princess Ping's illness refers to the problems on her body and the flaws in her reputation.

"No, look at me, do you feel uncomfortable?"

Zheng Lingyi turned around slightly, smiled at Princess Ping, and raised a hibiscus face with white petals and pink tips, and crimson lips.

Princess Ping suddenly felt a little confused, she also heard that Zheng Lingyi fell into the water yesterday, and when she came up, she changed her skin, and she stared at it today, and she really didn't see any flaws, not even a single spot.

But even if it was just a change of skin, the beauty with firm eyebrows in front of her, and the little maid who was cowering behind Shen Qin yesterday, made Princess Ping feel like two people in a trance.

"Mrs. Lu doesn't have to be in such a hurry to pick up Sister Zheng, your family is busy, and my sister has lived with me for ten days and half a month, which can be regarded as a health care and a companion to me."

Shen Qin's accent fell on the words 'busy at home', and he was afraid that Lu Shi would not hear that she was satirizing Zheng Rongli.

Zheng Lingyi was very grateful to Shen Qin, but at the same time, he also caught a glimpse of Princess Ping's slightly minded look.

"How dare you trouble the palace to take care of her, Grandpa Guo is also looking forward to seeing her at home."

Lu relied on imagining the happy scene after arresting Zheng Lingyi, and endured Shen Qin's ridicule.

"In that case, I don't dare to disturb the princess and the county lord more."

It was Zheng Lingyi who said this, hearing her say this, Shen Qin couldn't help but wonder, Zheng Lingyi naturally didn't explain in front of everyone, and only squinted his eyes to Princess Ping.

Shen Qin looked at her mother and saw that she also glanced at herself, she was not stupid, and quickly understood Zheng Lingyi's thoughtfulness and reluctance of Princess Peace.

knows how to advance and retreat, knows the interest, and does not hold on to Shen Qin. Princess Ping was satisfied, and her disgust towards Zheng Lingyi diluted a lot.

After Zheng Lingyi left, Shen Qin was left by Princess Ping to speak, and the two of them ate breakfast in a hurry, so they asked for a few plates of snacks in the small kitchen.

The people at the bottom knew that the master was not full, and served two bowls of hot milk with peanuts.

Princess Ping had only eaten half of a piece of small almond cake, and Shen Qin had already drunk the milk, and she had eaten a bowl of sweet and oily dates.

Princess Ping frowned and said, "This is fried, you eat less, today I saw you standing with the Zheng family girl, your body is like a mountain, and the slightest daughter figure is not visible!" ”

Shen Qin was counted down by Princess Ping like this, and he didn't even tremble his eyelids, but when he threw the sweet dates in his mouth, he deliberately squeezed Princess Ping's eyes.

Princess Ping was so angry with her that she was waiting for her confidants and maids, so she picked up an orange in the lacquer plate and threw it at Shen Qin, saying, "Wrongdoer! ”

Shen Qin easily caught it and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that the concubine won't hurt me anymore, so throw it away and throw it to eat." ”

This orange is a wild orange, green and hard, more sour than vinegar, except for the fish sauce will be used to enhance the flavor, usually no one eats it.

However, this wild orange also has the advantage of being fruity, fresh and fragrant, and it is more effective than any spice when placed in the house in the summer heat.

"Lingyi is thin bones, look at her wrist, thinner than the ring ruler you used to beat me when you were a child. I'm skinny, and I'm still bigger than her. ”

Princess Ping heard that she didn't care like this, but she became angry with herself, "If I knew this, I shouldn't have let you go to the martial arts field at that time, and you were full of thick bones to practice!" ”

Shen Qin is very aware of his strengths and weaknesses, and he will not be fooled by Princess Ping's words.

She looked at her wrist, turned it, and said proudly: "It's thicker, but it's stronger to beat people up than thin wrists!" ”

The servants covered their lips and chuckled, Princess Ping didn't know whether to cry or laugh, sighed, and didn't continue the topic, saving herself from guilt.

They don't hurt the real mother and daughter to talk about the trouble, and the fake mother and daughter are really swordsmen and guns, and the two of them will always be hurt.

Lu knew that Zheng Guogong was waiting in the palace, and he would definitely not be able to settle the account happily when he went back, so as soon as he got into the carriage, he was full of strength to slap him over.

Zheng Lingyi seemed to have guessed a long time ago, and the agile one bent her knees, and she slapped the air.

The strength in Lu's hand was not implemented, if it weren't for Danzhu's quick help, he was afraid that he would have to kneel down for Zheng Lingyi when he arrived.

"Madame, let's bear with it. You should hold this slap first, the provincial father asked. Zheng Lingyi Shi Ran sat down and stroked the corners of his folded skirt.

Lu sat down a little embarrassed, saw Zheng Lingyi's calm face, and thought of the marriage that Zheng Guogong planned for her overnight last night, the anger in his heart suddenly smoothed, and he sneered: "Your father really loves you very much." ”

Her tone was strange and alarming, and Zheng Lingyi looked at Lu Shi and smiled slightly.

Lu Shi didn't like to see her like this, as if she was confident and knew everything accurately.

Coupled with this flawless face that is so well hidden, Lu Shi has already understood that he has been tricked for many years, how can he not be angry?

Zheng Lingyi deliberately didn't ask, so the Lu family wanted to say a few more words to ruin her calm and calm at this time.

"The dough is well hidden, white and tender like a piece of tofu, if you marry into the Zeng family, even if your husband is a little dissatisfied with your background, it shouldn't be difficult for you to rely on beauty to invite pets." Lu sneered.

Zheng Lingyi looked at her expressionlessly, she knew that what Lu Shi said next must not be a good thing, so she erected a high heart wall to protect herself.

"However, after last night's incident, the Zeng family, don't think about it in your life."

Lu Shi obviously spoke very happily, even proudly.

"Your father and the Wu family agreed, spread the wind, and said that you and the concubine of the Wu family had already had a marriage contract, so that the reputation of the national government could be protected."

Marrying a concubine whose bloodline has been doubted, this marriage is very similar to the handwriting of the Lu family, and it can be regarded as hitting her heart.

Lu Shi waited to see Zheng Lingyi's collapse, but only saw a blank on her face.

She thought that Zheng Lingyi was frightened, but she was satisfied.

Zheng Lingyi couldn't care what Lu was thinking now, and he was only desperately trying to get back the clarity in his mind, so his face was only blank.

Although he was very sure that what the Lu family said was Wu Punishment, Zheng Lingyi still asked more, "Which concubine of the Wu family?" ”

Her voice was a little out of tune, like frightened, but not very clear.

Lu Shi couldn't wait to speak, and at this moment, he made a gesture and glanced at Danzhu.

Danzhu spoke for her: "It's the third son of the Wu family." ”

If it was Wu Punishment, Zheng Lingyi didn't realize that he was relieved, but a slight fresh look appeared on his face.

"Even if I don't ask the Zeng family, but after this incident, how will the Zeng family view the Lu family?" Zheng Lingyi deliberately avoided his marriage and threw out a word that Lu would definitely answer.

Because of Wu Rouxiang's defection, Zheng Lingyi was pushed into the lake by the Qi family, and even the Lu family himself acquiesced.

If it weren't for Zheng Yanxian's previous appearance, even if it was only for the purpose of safeguarding the Guogong Mansion, coupled with the Lu family's consistent contempt for the Qi family, how could she ask the Qi family about her guilt.

At this time, the Lu family could only say a word not very toughly, "What nonsense are you talking about, what's the matter with my Lu family!" ”

Lu Shi said nonsense with her eyes open like this, which just proved her weakness.

Zheng Lingyi didn't speak, although she didn't figure out many things, but she didn't know why, she didn't feel very scared.

That calm and relaxed posture shrouded her again, the corners of her eyebrows and eyes seemed to be very relaxed, this subtlety was indescribable and unclear, Lu Shi faintly felt that what was going on was very important, but it was something she couldn't touch.
