Ji Yuqing was filled with hatred. She had nothing wrong with herself, but she could never compete with Ji Lingxue.
Ji Lingxue was born only one year earlier than her, but she became the legitimate daughter and always stole her glory. Obviously, she and Ji Lingxue knew Xiao Yichen at the same time, but Ji Lingxue was able to be granted marriage by the emperor. Even if she became a fool, she could still be carried into the palace by Xiao Yichen in a sedan chair and become his principal wife.
Ji Lingxue has become a fool and can't even cook. She is silly all day long. Why does Xiao Yichen still care about her so much
Zi Su hurriedly comforted him, "Master, why don't we poison that silly concubine so that she can't go to the palace banquet, then you can follow the prince into the palace with a legitimate reason."
Ji Yuqing also thought that Zi Su's idea was very good, but then she thought about how she was tricked by Ji Lingxue. Ji Lingxue's black eyes that saw through everything made her feel uneasy.
"Forget it, she is just a poor fool. I won't bother with her about the quota to enter the palace. The prince likes me so much, he will definitely agree if I say I want to enter the palace." Ji Yuqing picked up the rouge beside her and applied it, and her depressed expression disappeared.
Zi Su stood speechlessly behind Ji Yuqing, not quite understanding when her master had become so magnanimous. Did she lose her brain after falling into the water last time
While Ji Yuqing was envious and jealous, Ji Lingxue followed Xiao Yichen bitterly. Ever since leaving the Ji Mansion, Xiao Yichen had been acting like a prince with a dignified and proud demeanor.
In the carriage, Xiao Yichen asked Ji Lingxue a bunch of questions, especially where Ji Lingxue went last night.
Ji Lingxue opened her confused eyes and answered: "Where else can I go if I don't sleep at night?"
Xiao Yichen regretted that he had placed too few secret guards around Ji Lingxue, so that her whereabouts could not be fully understood. Since Ji Lingxue was not a fool, she would have a way to avoid the secret guards and do something unspeakable.
These were just Xiao Yichen's thoughts. Since he couldn't get anything out of them, he simply stopped asking.
As soon as they arrived at the palace, Xiao Yichen got off the carriage first and ordered Ji Lingxue to follow him. The two walked one after the other, and Xiao Yichen talked about some past events from time to time. Ji Lingxue was obviously absent-minded and responded lazily.
Xiao Yichen stopped and Ji Lingxue, who was following him, fell forward without checking. Xiao Yichen opened his arms, waiting for Ji Lingxue to throw herself into his arms.
Ji Lingxue shook her sleeves, and several embroidery needles were pinched between her fingers. As she fell into Xiao Yichen's arms, the silver needles sank into his chest.
I'll stab, stab, stab you, you unfaithful man!
Xiao Yichen frowned and looked down at Ji Lingxue in his arms, who had a silly expression on her face. Why did this girl have thorns on her body
Ji Lingxue blinked and said, "I'm sorry!" Then she immediately pushed Xiao Yichen's chest away and moved back a little, putting away the silver needle without leaving any trace.
Xiao Yichen raised his hand and pointed at the tree next to Ji Lingxue and said, "Do you still remember this tree? We planted it together when we were five years old?"
Ji Lingxue tilted her head. The tree next to her was taller than her head. It had dense branches and leaves, and small yellow flowers. A breeze brought with it a burst of fragrance.
Ji Lingxue’s thoughts went back to when she was four years old. Xiao Yichen was only five years old at that time. They stood at the gate of the palace hand in hand.
Xiao Yichen said: "Xue'er, father said that this will be my residence from now on, let's go inside and take a look."
Little Lingxue nodded, her twin ponytails swaying, her chubby face full of innocence, "Okay!"
They swaggered past the gatekeepers and walked into the palace. At that moment, Ji Lingxue was attracted by the exotic flowers and plants in the palace. These flowers and plants were beautifully trimmed, and they were all unknown to her.
Xiao Yichen suddenly said: "Xue'er, let's plant trees together."
Xiao Lingxue nodded, and saw Xiao Yichen took off Ji Lingxue's hair flower, tied it together with his jade pendant, put it into the mud pit that had been dug in advance, and then planted the sapling.
