Luoyang Brocade Chapter 60: Power
Ling Jingyan didn't have any scheming, and didn't notice that Ling Jingshu was lying. She immediately nodded in agreement: "It's not just that it's not easy to get close to him. I don't dare to look at him at all."
"Although His Royal Highness the Grandson is young, he holds a high position and has a deep mind. Not to mention us, even the civil and military officers who have been immersed in officialdom for many years are wary in front of him."
"I once heard a rumor. His Highness Taisun did not like to be disturbed when he was reading, and the maids were not allowed to come near him. There was a palace maid who had the courage to do so because she was a reward from the Queen. I went into the study room after having supper. The beauty of the palace girl was probably because she saw His Highness Taisun’s youth and handsomeness, and tried to flatter her. As a result, the flattery failed, and instead she was beaten thirty times by His Highness Taisun.”
Speaking of this rumor that was widely circulated among the ladies in the capital, Ling Jingyan became interested and said with ecstasy: "That palace maid was also pitiful. She was beaten in front of everyone and lost her face. She threw herself into a well that night. . A human life was lost just like that. After hearing that His Highness Taisun knew about it, he just sneered and said nothing. Since then, no maid dared to enter His Highness's study without permission."
"After this incident spread, His Highness Taisun's reputation for being cold and ruthless also spread. The ladies in the capital who were secretly in love with His Highness Taisun suddenly lost half of them."
"By the way, there is another widely circulated incident. An official in the East Palace made a mistake while running an errand, and he has begged His Highness the Crown Prince for forgiveness. But His Highness the Crown Prince insisted on being dealt with strictly. For this reason His Highness the Grand Sun even had a dispute with His Highness the Crown Prince. In the end, His Highness the Crown Prince gave in. The subordinate officer was dismissed from his official position and sent to prison."
"Speaking of which, my eldest sister-in-law and His Highness the Grand Sun are also related by marriage. He should be called cousin. But you also saw that he did not specifically talk to my eldest sister-in-law today, and my eldest sister-in-law did not dare to pretend to be a cousin. ."
This fully shows the power of His Highness the Grand Sun.
Ling Jingshu twitched the corners of her lips, but there was no smile in her eyes.
This is power!
He holds the power of life and death in his hands. He can lift people to great heights with just one word, and send them to **** with just one word.
Rather than being afraid of the emperor's grandson, it is better to say that he is in awe of his noble status.
In her previous life, Princess Changping took away husbands without any scruples. Empress Xu secretly ordered her to be executed... In the final analysis, it was all because of power.
"You are really courageous. When you went to the ship to express gratitude this morning, you also talked eloquently to His Majesty the Grand Sun." Ling Jingyan joked with a smile.
Ling Jingshu smiled faintly: "Why don't you dare. He was just lucky enough to have a good pregnancy. He was born as the eldest grandson of the Tian family, with a noble status. If he was like his cousin and A Xiao, he had a more ordinary background. Even if he was cold all day long With a straight face. Who would be afraid of him?"
Ling Jingyan was speechless.
This may sound a bit rebellious at first, but if you think about it carefully, it does seem to make sense...
"Ah Shu, we sisters can just talk about this in private, but we can't talk nonsense in front of others." Ling Jingyan warned worriedly: "It would be terrible if it reaches the ears of His Highness the Grand Sun."
If His Highness Taisun is angered, not only Ling Jingshu, but also the Ling family will suffer!
Ling Jingshu smiled: "There are only two of us here, so I have the courage to say a few words from my heart. This is because I know cousin Yan's temper. I will never spread these jokes. Change it. How dare I say nonsense about others."
This is a silent flattery. Quickly closing the distance between the two.
Ling Jingyan listened very much and said with a smile: "What you said makes sense. The two of us can whisper and say whatever we want."
Ling Jingshu pursed her lips and smiled, and asked abruptly: "Cousin Yan, is there anyone you admire in your heart?"
Ling Jingyan: "..."
Ling Jingyan's cheeks turned red quickly, her eyes wandered uncertainly, she looked left and right but did not dare to look directly into Ling Jingshu's eyes: "No, no."
......
It turns out that at this time, Ling Jingyan's heart was already attached to King Yan.
Queen Xu and her daughter are her life-and-death enemies. As the younger brother of Queen Xu’s youngest son, Princess Changping, King Yan is naturally one of her enemies.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you find the opponent's weaknesses and wait for opportunities for revenge.
If you want to find out about King Yan, Ling Jingyan is the best place to start.
Ling Jingshu sighed secretly, but said with a smile: "Cousin Yan, please don't lie to me. If you don't have a sweetheart, how could you not be moved at all when you see a handsome young man like His Highness the Grand Sun?"
Although the emperor's grandson is a little cold and arrogant, and is far more profound than a boy of his age, he is indeed very handsome. Compared to the handsome and gentle Lu Hong, he is not inferior. Coupled with the dazzling aura that comes from status and power, it is enough to make the girl fall in love.
Ling Jingyan refused to admit it to her death, and even said with a guilty conscience: "According to what you said, why are you not attracted to cousin Hong and cousin Qian? Could it be that you also have a sweetheart?"
Ling Jingshu was speechless.
Ling Jingyan had the upper hand verbally, and she was quite pleased with herself. She continued with a smile: "You deliberately concealed the fact that you were coming to the capital, just to avoid the two brothers!"
"Not entirely." Ling Jingshu said half-truthfully: "Part of it is to avoid their brothers, so as not to cause embarrassment and make everyone look bad. The other half is to accompany A Xiao in his treatment... ."
Ling Jingyan had thrown away her previous depression, and made a face when she heard this: "Come on, don't coax me. I really don't understand your thoughts. My latent cousin is still a child, and you are angry with him. It's inevitable that there won't be love between men and women. But cousin Hong is a talented person. His family background, appearance, talent and education are all good choices, and he is completely infatuated with you. Why are you indifferent to him?"
Of course Ling Jingshu would not tell the truth, and responded in an evasive manner: "There are many outstanding young men in this world. Do I have to respond to those who admire me?"
...In a nutshell~IndoMTL.com~just didn’t like Lu Hong!
Ling Jingyan rolled her eyes and laughed softly: "Ah Shu, I think His Highness Taisun seems to have a special regard for you! His Highness Taisun has not yet made a marriage arrangement, and all the ladies in the capital are watching with eager eyes! What happened to you? As beautiful as she is, if she can catch his eye, she won't be able to become the grandson's concubine. Being a concubine to the grandson's concubine will mean a lifetime of glory and wealth."
Ling Jingshu: "..."
What a joke!
The cold and handsome young face quickly flashed through Ling Jingshu's mind, and she replied without hesitation: "You must be dazzled!"
The tone is very crisp and clear.
When Ling Jingyan saw that Ling Jingshu didn't answer the question, she changed the topic again.
At this moment, the ship shook slightly.
Start again!
