Yuxiu didn't know whether it worked or not, she just went with the flow and agreed with what Haiqing meant.
In fact, there is not much to do. Just go to Qu Moying and get a piece of jewelry for daily use. You don't need a set, just one piece will do, either earrings, or a hairpin or something like that.
Hai Qing said that this was a proof to let the Princess of Northern Frontier know that Princess Ying and Princess Jing had joined forces. She had plotted against the two of them this time, and they should return the favor. The two of them joining forces could better deter the Princess of Northern Frontier and prevent her from causing trouble again in the future.
As a smart maid, she should have refused at this time, but as a maid who had been favored by her old master again and again, Yuxiu could not say the words of refusal.
So finally she agreed.
Seeing that she agreed, Hai Qing specially gave her a big gift, expressing his gratitude to Yuxiu for this matter. He said that after scaring the princess of Northern Frontier one day, he would return the jewelry immediately, and then Princess Jing would have to thank Yuxiu very much.
Then he praised Yuxiu a lot!
These words, said one or two at a time, would not confuse people, but such a long paragraph was thrown at her, even Yuxiu finally agreed in a daze, it seemed that she was really confused.
Seeing Yuxiu agree to this matter and repeatedly assure that it would be completed immediately, Haiqing smiled proudly.
After Yuxiu went back, Haiqing came back to report.
Liu Lanxin was very satisfied with Haiqing's answer. She felt that Qu Moying valued this girl called Yuxiu and had specially rewarded her. Now it was time for her to repay herself.
"Your Highness, will Princess Ying find out?" Hai Qing suddenly asked.
Liu Lanxin sneered and curled her lips in sarcasm: "What did she find? What could she find? She was forced to move from the capital to a manor outside the city, and then from the manor outside the city to Qingyun Temple. The King of England would visit her before, but now he has never come again. At this moment, what she has to consider is to make the King of England pay attention to her, not other trivial matters."
"Don't be fooled by her aura. If she hadn't been lucky enough to find her biological father, she might have been divorced by now. The Qu family has been in trouble one after another, and they are all caused by her. How much can the King of England tolerate her!"
"Your Highness is right. I feel that Yuxiu looks timid and doesn't have the aura of a maid. I originally thought it was her own fault, but now I understand after hearing what Your Highness said. How can a maid not be anxious when her master can't stand up?"
Hai Qing said repeatedly.
Liu Lanxin smiled slightly, with a look of satisfaction in her eyes. Although her life was not good, fortunately she was confident. Qu Moying was just an empty shell, but he looked so confident, which was really ridiculous. It would be fine if he hid it from outsiders, but he actually hid it from her. He didn't even look at who he was.
"Haihua, go and invite Master Ning Yin over and tell her that I want to discuss the Dao with her."
"Yes, I'll go now." Haihua responded and retreated with a smile. Even though it was a little far away at this time, no one could disobey the princess's order.
If this Master Ning Yin doesn't know what's tactful, Hai Hua doesn't mind using tougher measures.
Zhenren Ning Yin was very tactful. When she heard that it was Princess Jing who invited them, Zhenren Ning Yin packed up a little and came over with Haihua. The little Taoist nun followed closely by her side to serve her.
At this time, the little nun was even more afraid that something might happen to Master Ning Yin. She heard that the Princess Jing was not easy to deal with, and she was afraid that the Princess Jing would do something bad to Master Ning Yin.
When she went out, she deliberately hinted to another Taoist nun, indicating that Zhenren Ning Yin was going to see Princess Jing.
Upon hearing that Master Ning Yin was coming, Liu Lanxin asked Haiqing to invite him in.
The curtain was lifted, and Master Ning Yin followed Hai Qing in. He bowed respectfully to Liu Lanxin who was sitting on the high seat, his expression respectful but also with a bit of the indifference of a hermit.
The navy blue robe was very loose, but one could still see Ning Yin Zhenren's slender figure. Her outstanding facial features coupled with such grace really made people feel good, especially since the one in front of them was just a Taoist nun, which made people feel much more at ease.
There was a gentleness in her eyes and a bit of poetry and literature. Such a woman would indeed make one's eyes light up. Even when they met again, Liu Lanxin took a few more glances at her.
"You are such a beauty. I still feel the same way when I see you again. Who would have thought that Qingyun Temple actually has such a beauty like you? It's really surprising." Liu Lanxin sighed after taking a look.
"Your Highness, you are too polite. Appearance is just a shell. In this world, the appearance is not important." Master Ning Yin smiled and replied.
"Does the real person think... that appearance is unimportant?" Liu Lanxin asked with a smile.
"Of course it doesn't matter. No matter how you look, your beauty will fade one day. No matter how stunningly beautiful you are, after a hundred years you will be nothing but a pile of dry bones." said Taoist Ning Yin. She didn't put any makeup on her face, but her complexion was still crystal clear. When she said this, she also showed her indifference to her appearance.
It really makes people feel good.
After hearing what Master Ning Yin said, and seeing that she really didn't care about her appearance, Liu Lanxin couldn't help but clapped her hands and smiled: "Master Ning Yin is indeed a hermit, and indeed... has profound insights. What you said is very good... very good! Master, please take a seat."
Zhenren Ning Yin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although she looked calm, she was actually very nervous. The Princess Jing, who was not easy to mess with, suddenly summoned her. She was afraid that something might happen, so she washed and dressed up again, and dressed up like this inconspicuously.
"Thank you, Princess Jing." Master Ning Yin had the indifferent look of a hermit with a natural and elegant smile. After bowing to Liu Lanxin, he sat down on a chair beside him.
"Master, do you know why I asked you to come here?" Liu Lanxin asked, looking at Master Ning Yin in front of him with interest.
Master Ning Yin shook his head blankly: "I don't know."
"It's not a big deal, it's mainly about the Princess of England. I heard that Master Ning Yin and the Princess of England have a good personal relationship, so I specially invited Master Ning Yin to come." Liu Lanxin looked Master Ning Yin up and down again and praised him, "I wasn't familiar with Master Ning Yin before, and we parted in a hurry. It's been a while since we last met. I felt it was a pity at the time, and now I see you again, but it makes me feel it's a pity... What a pity!"
“Such a beautiful woman... has fallen to this state, what a pity.” Liu Lanxin clicked her tongue twice, looking at Master Ning Yin with a bit of pity in her eyes.
The smile on Master Ning Yin's face froze, but then he smiled calmly: "You are joking, Princess."
"Master... do you want to leave Qingyun Temple? People like you... should be rich and beautiful in the world, how could you really fall to this point, really... a pearl thrown into the dark, I have a good place here, I wonder if you have any idea?"
Liu Lanxin asked with a smile.
Master Ning Yin just smiled and said, "Princess, you are joking. As a person living in seclusion, where else can I go? This place is very good. It is the best place for me."
"Not really!" Liu Lanxin shook her head and looked around. "Although this place is not bad, compared to the real person's... beauty, how can it be the best place? Is the real person really willing to stay here forever? I heard that the original Princess Hengyang... was here. It's a pity that such a good princess of the royal family had to end up here."
Liu Lanxin said.
She grew up in the border area and was very indifferent to everything in the capital, nor did she have much awe of it.
She didn't care about mentioning the title of Princess Hengyang.
Master Ning Yin was startled by her blunt words. The smile on his face slowly faded, and he frowned, feeling a little uneasy: "Princess, please be careful with your words!"
"Be careful with your words?" Liu Lanxin smiled and waved her hand nonchalantly, "Is it because I mentioned Princess Hengyang? There's nothing to be shy about. Princess Hengyang has been gone for so many years. Are you afraid of what people say?"
Master Ning Yin didn't dare to respond.
Liu Lanxin laughed again and pointed at Master Ning Yin, as if Master Ning Yin now made a great joke to her. Even the two maids following her looked a little disdainful and didn't seem to care much.
Liu Lanxin finally stopped laughing, picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip, wiped away the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief, and then said: "Master... the past is the past, maybe the Taoists in Qingyun Temple will still remember it, but for others... who would care about someone who has passed away so long ago? The reason why Princess Hengyang was able to save her life was because of the Queen Mother's will. If it weren't for the Queen Mother's protection, Princess Hengyang would not have been able to keep her life, not to mention others. Princess Xian'an, not to mention myself, even the Duke of Qi's Mansion suffered with her."
Master Ning Yin didn't dare to respond. He lowered his head slightly and said "Wulian Tianzun".
The Princess Jing in front of her dared to say these words, but she didn't dare to listen.
Regarding Princess Hengyang and Princess Xian'an, these topics were taboo in the capital. No one dared to talk about them in public, let alone be disrespectful like Princess Jing.
"Master, do you feel embarrassed when I say this?" Liu Lanxin asked with a smile.
“I…” Master Ning Yin smiled bitterly, and once again realized that she was just an ordinary Taoist nun, without power or influence. These words were said by the Princess Jing in front of her, but she was wrong even to hear them.
"Okay, I won't embarrass you... It was originally just a joke, but it's a pity that you have to live a poor life in such a place, and you can't even listen to a joke. Doesn't you really plan to move to a better place?" Liu Lanxin suddenly jumped back to the previous topic.
"Thank you, Princess Jing." Master Ning Yin bowed his head.
"Well, since the real person doesn't agree with this, then forget it. Come, give the real person some incense money." Liu Lanxin did not force it and said to the maid behind her with a smile.
Hai Qing stepped forward, took out a silver note from his sleeve and placed it on the table.
A silver note worth one hundred taels.
Master Ning Yin sat up straight in shock: "Princess Jing, what is this?"
