Luoyang Brocade Chapter 169: Concerns


The person who came to deliver the invitation was the same arrogant chamberlain from last time.

As usual, Ms. Sun stuffed a "rich" purse into it, and the waiter smiled and said in a more polite tone: "The craftsmen spent half a year building a new ship for Her Royal Highness. Princess. His Highness likes the excitement and plans to invite some distinguished guests to the Princess Mansion to take a boat trip on the lake together."

"The time is the day after tomorrow. Please ask Mrs. Ling and the two Miss Lings to come to the house as soon as possible before it is too late."

Although the three of them were invited to visit, the waiter was looking at Ling Jingshu.

Ling Jingshu could only respond with a smile: "Please report back to Your Highness the Princess, we will definitely arrive early."

The chamberlain sent the invitation and quickly left.

Everyone had their own thoughts and remained silent for a while.

"A'shu, Her Royal Highness the Princess has sent an invitation, so we can't refuse it." Jiang frowned slightly and said in a low voice: "However, I always have an extra layer of worries in my heart now. Changping The princess and King Yan are siblings. What will happen when King Yan comes to the princess's house?"

Ling Jingshu was also worried, and sighed softly: "To be fair, I'm worried about this too!"

Ling Ji had already learned from Jiang's mouth that King Yan was entangled with Ling Jingshu. Hearing this, he snorted with a sullen face: "It's really unreasonable! Although gentle ladies and gentlemen are very timid, they are not so aggressive."

Emotional matters are about your own will and my will. How can this be considered?

The more Ling Ji thought about it, the angrier he became, and he said angrily: "Ah Shu, try not to leave the house in the future. Let me accompany Ah Xiao to the prince's house. King Yan can't run into our Ling family again if he continues to be domineering. Come to the back house!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone had different reactions.

Chiang wanted to object, but didn't have the nerve to speak.

But Mrs. Sun didn't have so many worries and frowned and said: "That's not right! Ah Xiao has to go to the Prince's Mansion every five days. You have to study in the Imperial College. It doesn't matter if you take leave occasionally, but you can't do it every few days. I’ll take leave on the day.”

Ling Jingshu also quickly took over the conversation: "What the eldest aunt said is true. My cousin should put his studies first and don't worry about me. Besides, I can't forget to eat because of choking, just to hide from King Yan. You don’t even dare to leave the Ling family’s front door!”

This is true.

Sometimes, leaving the house is unavoidable. For example, Princess Changping sent an invitation. Ling Jingshu couldn't avoid it.

Ling Ji frowned. He didn't say anything else, just warned: "In short, Ah Shu, you should be more careful. People's words are scary. You haven't got engaged yet, and clearing your name is the most important thing."

He then said to Mrs. Jiang: "Yu Niang, how old are you? When we go out together in the future, please take more care of Ah Shu. Don't let King Yan have the opportunity to approach Ah Shu alone."

Ms. Jiang nodded and solemnly agreed.

Ling Ji’s concern and care. It makes people feel warm in their hearts.

Ling Jingshu smiled at Ling Ji: "Thank you, cousin, for always thinking about me."

"My brothers and sisters, why are you still saying these polite words?" Ling Ji replied nonchalantly: "I just regret that I don't have time to accompany you and A Xiao out of the house. Otherwise, as long as I am here, there is no way that King Yan can let him go Close to you."

Actually. Even if Ling Ji is here, he can't stop King Yan.

Ling Jingshu knew this very well. but. Ling Ji had good intentions, but she would never tell such a truth. So as not to hurt Ling Ji's face.

……

Two days later.

Before leaving the house, Mrs. Sun gave a special warning. To sum it up, there are two sentences like this: King Yan is not easy to mess with, so stay away if you encounter him. Princess Changping is also not easy to mess with, so she tries her best to be ingratiating with her.

"Mom is good at everything, but she is too verbose. Repeating a few simple words over and over for so long is just a waste of time."

Sitting on the carriage, Ling Jingyan complained with some dissatisfaction.

It's okay for Ling Jingyan to complain, but Jiang, the daughter-in-law, and Ling Jingshu, the niece, can't complain. The two looked at each other, exchanged knowing glances, and pursed their lips together and laughed.

Sun did talk a little bit. This is probably a common problem among older women.

After arriving at Princess Changping's residence, the three of them got off the carriage and went to the concierge to wait.

Before the doorman could turn around, Su Ying, who was also a guest, arrived.

Everyone smiled and exchanged a few words.

Su Ying, who is beautiful and elegant in a light blue dress, has a smile on her lips and is full of energy: "I thought I was the first to come, but I didn't expect you to come earlier than me."

Ling Jingshu responded with a smile: "When Her Royal Highness the Princess sent someone to send the invitation, she specifically asked her to come earlier. We didn't dare to neglect, so we came earlier on purpose."

Su Ying briefly looked at Ling Jingshu, then pursed her lips and smiled: "I saw you three times, and every time you dressed simply, I have never seen you dressed up before!"

Girls aged fourteen or fifteen are the most beautiful age. Especially when going to a banquet together, secret comparisons are unavoidable. Su Ying is not exempt from vulgarity. Every time I go out as a guest, I have to dress up carefully for a long time.

Ling Jingshu, however, always showed herself without makeup and didn’t care much about what she wore. No wonder Su Ying was secretly surprised.

Ling Jingshu smiled slightly and answered in an understatement: "I am new to the capital, and I am not familiar with the popular styles of dresses, hairstyles and jewelry. I just dress casually and simply to avoid making a fool of myself."

Su Ying smiled: "A naturally beautiful woman like you looks good no matter what you wear, how can you make a fool of yourself."

"When others say this, I accept it shamelessly." Ling Jingshu responded with a smile: "Miss Su praises me so much, I am really ashamed. In terms of natural beauty, who can compare with Miss Su?"

Everyone loves to hear good words.

Su Ying pursed her lips and smiled: "That's all, let's stop flattering each other. Also, I'm one year older than you, so just call me Sister Su. ~IndoMTL.com~ The title Miss Su, It’s too raw.”

Ling Jingshu was not shy and quickly changed her tune and called Sister Su.

The concierge diligently led everyone into the house and directly to the lake.

At this time, midsummer is about to pass, and the pond is full of lotus flowers, which are blooming particularly enchantingly. The gentle breeze blows slowly, filled with the refreshing fragrance of lotus flowers.

The brand new boat is parked by the lake. It is spacious and luxurious, with tables and chairs, and various fresh fruit snacks placed on the table.

After Ling Jingshu and others got on the boat, they waited for a while before the ladies from famous families who had received the invitations arrived one by one. Most of them were familiar faces, having seen them at the lotus appreciation banquet and Su Ying's hairpin ceremony.

Princess Changping was dressed radiantly as usual, and came with the support of two handsome servants.

Princess Fumin did not come today. Without this eyesore, Ling Jingshu felt much better.

After Princess Changping sat down, she smiled sweetly and said: "There is another distinguished guest who has not arrived today. Please wait a moment." (To be continued.)
