Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 84: Let grandma make the decision and divorce Shen

After the candle was extinguished, the room fell into darkness. The two of them lay on the bed in a dull mood. Li Ling said leisurely: "This Qingluan has been bored in the palace for a long time, and his thoughts are getting weirder and weirder."

Jingshu was lying on the pillow. She heard the words but didn’t say anything.

Li Ling sighed and said to himself: "She has not been in contact with people for a long time in the palace, so it is normal for her to have extreme thoughts. Maybe it is what you said. She has been timid since she was a child, so she would not have such thoughts."

 Is there any relationship between a woman's admiration for a man and her courage?

Jingshu really couldn’t understand Li Ling’s thinking.

Perhaps he didn’t want to accept the fact that Qingluan admired him.

Jingshu turned around and let the person beside her talk to herself.

Seeing that she remained silent, Li Ling turned sideways and said to her: "Tell your grandmother in two days to let Qingluan go back to the palace. The child is now old and it is not good to live here for a long time. "

Seeing that his wife didn't respond for a long time, Li Ling patted her and asked, "Why don't you speak?"

Jingshu turned around, looked at him, and snorted: "How dare I talk nonsense."

“Hmph! If I make a mistake, why don’t I go to the house to punish me?”

Hearing what she said, Li Ling directly pulled her over and whispered in her ear, "Didn't I know the inside story just now?"

Jingshu broke away from him: "You don't know what's going on, so you can just yell that you want to do something against me?"

"Thanks to me knowing how to advance and retreat, I shut my mouth immediately. Otherwise, I would have been taken care of by your family at this moment."

Li Lingfu took the person into his arms again: "I can't bear to do it, I just want to scare you."

Jingshu turned sideways and said, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you."

Li Ling explained: "Then, wasn't it that I was so angry when I suddenly heard you say such a thing?"

"Okay, don't be angry, it's okay if I'm wrong." As he said that, he stretched out his hand to her again.

"Go away." Jing Shu coldly shook off his hand and said politely.

Li Ling pulled the person over and said through gritted teeth: "It seems that I have really spoiled you, and now you are ready to show off your face to me."

As he said that, he stepped forward and said, "I can't control you anymore, can I?"

Even though the two of them had just arrived in the evening, it didn't seem to affect Li Ling's mood at the moment. He tossed his little wife over and over until midnight.

Jingshu was carried to the bathroom by her again.

 After washing, before leaving the bathroom, she was so tired that she fell asleep in Li Ling's arms.

 The winter night was silent, the fire was burning in the fireplace, and the young couple slept sweetly in each other's arms under the warm quilt.

 But the people in Zizhu Pavilion not far away from them couldn't sleep well all night.

Qingluan cried so hard that her eyes turned into walnuts, and Chaolu persuaded her to the side until her mouth went dry: "Princess, please stop crying. How could the prince not have you in his heart? You are thinking too much."

Qingluan twitched and said, "Why am I overthinking it? Didn't you see the way my cousin ignored me at the banquet?"

"And how attentive he was to Mr. Shen." As she said that, she couldn't help but think of the attentive way her always cold cousin cut up the woman's food with his own hands at the banquet, and how he looked at the woman. The doting look in his eyes.

Seeing him treat the woman like this, her heart was broken. Even though she knew she had to control herself in such a situation, she couldn't help crying on the spot.

Qingluan cried and asked Chaolu: "Do you think my cousin no longer has me in his heart?"

Although Chao Lu and the princess had only been in Zhen Guogong Mansion for only two days, she could really see clearly: The Li family's heir apparent was deeply in love with the Shen family, and he had no regard for his own princess at all, or in other words, he had no regard for the princess at all. Qing, the care he had always taken for the princess was nothing more than treating her as a younger sister.

But it happened that her princess was completely devoted to the heir of the Li family. She was stubborn and weak, and could not withstand such endless weeping.

Chao Lu had no choice but to try her best to find words that could enlighten her and persuade her: "Yinu, it seems that Mrs. Shen must have used charming tricks to win over the prince. No matter how seductive the prince is, he is still a man of strong blood, isn't he? She was confused, which is human nature."

Qingluan was obsessed with Li Ling and was willing to deceive herself into believing Chaolu's words. She fiddled with the veil, gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "This daughter of the Shen family is so hateful!" Qingluan stopped crying, looked at Chaolu and asked: "Say, I'll find a chance to explain to my grandmother how I feel about my cousin, and let her make the decision. What about Shen?"

Not to mention a family with a clean family tradition like Zhenguo Gongfu, even an ordinary family, there is nothing wrong with marrying a wife who comes into the family, and it is not possible to divorce her just by divorce.

 Not to mention Li Ling's deep love for his wife, the old lady also took a fancy to this Shen family.

She hurriedly advised: "This matter should be considered in the long run. Princess, please don't act too hastily."

Qingluan interrupted her irritably: "How can I not be anxious? What if I wait until Mrs. Shen is pregnant with my cousin's flesh and blood?"

As she said that, she couldn't help crying again: "Then, then, wouldn't I have no chance at all?"

Chaolu believed that the old lady would not divorce Shen without reason even if she loved her granddaughter. She advised: "Princess, you should not talk to the old lady about this matter first. Divorcing your wife is a big deal, even if the old lady loves you a little bit." If the prince is reluctant to let go, he won't be able to do it."

Qingluan replied: "I don't believe that my cousin doesn't like me. If he didn't care about me, how could he have protected me since I was a child."

She said with a smile: "Besides, the royal family has always been married to the Zhenguo Duke in every dynasty. My cousin and I are a match made in heaven."

"It's all Mrs. Shen's fault. If she hadn't ignored her face and ruined her boudoir to entangle my cousin, how could my cousin have married her? My cousin and my grandmother will definitely wait for me and my queen to ask our father for a favor and allow me to marry her. Cousin’s.”

Chao Lu saw that her face was purple with anger, and she was worried that she would be ruined by the anger, so she quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, the princess is right, it's all Shen's fault."

"No, I'm going to see my cousin tomorrow. I have to make it clear to him."

Qingluan gritted his silver teeth and said, "We can't let this Shen family occupy the magpie's nest anymore."

 The winter sun rises in the sky, and it’s a sunny day again.

After washing up, Jingshu was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, being served by Ziyun to comb her hair. Li Ling was dressed in a smart black outfit and returned from practicing martial arts with a green sword. He hung the sword on the wall outside and stepped forward. Entered the inner room.

Seeing his little wife's hibiscus-like beauty in the bronze mirror from a distance, the corners of his mouth showed a graceful arc.

Ziyun inserted the last beaded hairpin into Jingshu's temples, then bowed and stepped out.

Jingshu turned her head and smiled back at Li Ling.

Having been married for almost a year, he still can't get enough of this little wife.

Li Ling couldn't help but walked up to her, and looked at her with crooked eyes for a long time. He pulled her to him, leaned close to the ear of the couch and asked, "Last night, I helped Madam wash herself. Will Madam be willing to serve me now?"

“The prince has an order, how can I dare to disobey it?”

Jingshu glared at Li Ling and said reluctantly, "Otherwise, I'm still not allowed to go to each other's house to punish you?"

With that said, the little woman turned and went to the bathroom.

Li Ling followed in with a smile. He took off his clothes that were half wet with sweat when he was practicing martial arts. He stood with his upper body naked and stood in front of his young wife, waiting for her to serve.

Jingshu put on a wet towel and wiped his strong body with lowered eyes.

Looking at the charming look on his young wife's brows and eyes, and remembering her charming and silky look under him last night, Li Ling couldn't help but reach out and touch her smooth and white cheeks.

He has been practicing martial arts for many years, and his hands are rough. Jingshu turned her head, gave him an angry look, and raised her hand to open his hands.

Li Ling looked at his young wife's charming appearance, with a doting smile in his eyes, but said bitterly: "When I first got married, I had a low eyebrow all day long. Now, in less than a year, you are so courageous." It’s getting bigger and bigger, and it’s easy to show off to me.”

　　He put his finger on the tip of his little wife's nose and said, "Be careful of the day when I will be angered, and I will really take action against you."

Jingshu smiled and said angrily: "Your Majesty, I have a thunderous method. If I really offend you one day, I don't know if you will send me out of the hall in anger."

Li Ling smiled and joked: "That's not true. If I divorce you, where can I find such a handsome person to be my wife?"

The two of them were joking and flirting here, when Ziyun called softly from outside: "Your Majesty, madam, the ninth princess is here."
