After the two had their meal, they returned to the princess mansion.
As soon as I took off my heavy cloak, I heard Ying'er coming to report that the crown prince's wife, Mrs. Bai, had arrived.
Linglong changed her clothes and retouched her makeup before meeting her in the main hall.
"Sit down quickly."
Bai Shi saluted: "Hail your highness."
Linglong saw that her sister-in-law was holding a beautiful wooden box in her hand, and asked, "What did sister-in-law bring?"
Bai Shi chuckled: "It's not expensive."
She took out the pearl shirt from the box and said, "My second uncle went to the East China Sea on a business trip and brought back many pearls.
We are not near the sea, so this pearl is considered a rare item. It is not big, so if it is made into jewelry, His Highness will naturally look down upon it. The concubine wanted to sew a pearl shirt for His Highness. "
Linglong smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is interested."
Raising her hand, Ying'er understood and took the pearl shirt.
Linglong smiled and said, "Ying'er, bring me the bird's nest I prepared for my sister-in-law." Ying'er went to get the bird's nest and gave it to Bai's men.
Linglong said with concern: "You have always been slender. It's getting colder, so you need to replenish it. It's getting colder day by day, so you should go out less often.
If you catch a cold, the eldest brother will have Linglong to blame. This cloak looks a little thin. Chanjuan, bring over the cloak with the blue fox collar. "
Bai Shi thanked her sheepishly: "I came here specially to give His Highness a gift, but it made His Highness worry. It's because I was careless. Thank you, Your Highness."
Linglong took the blue fox-collar cloak, put it on for Bai, and tied the ribbon on the collar: "Sister-in-law, did you come by car or sedan?"
Bai said, "He came by car."
She held Bai's hand: "The sky is getting dark, and it will be even colder on the way back. It's hard for my sister-in-law to take this trip. If anything happens in the future, just let the people below run away. Why bother to suffer personally? We are not outsiders."
Before Bai could say anything, she was sent to the carriage with great enthusiasm and waved goodbye.
————
She frowned when she got back into the house.
Seeing her like this, Qingshan thought Bai had mentioned the matter of Bai Ruxu going to the academy to give lectures again.
He got closer and stared at her little face.
Linglong raised her eyes and looked at Qingshan: "Just like this, one after another comes to greet you and give you gifts. As long as your belly is pregnant, what else can you do to hide it? In more than a month, the matter will be revealed. By then, assassinations will follow one after another, and the year will not be able to pass. good."
Qingshan hissed, he was already assassinated, but he was worried about having a bad year.
"Daughter-in-law, let's find a way to thank guests behind closed doors."
Linglong is worried about this. Princess, it is difficult to stay away from people without a good reason. I am now two and a half months pregnant, with half a year to go.
Qingshan asked: "If you do something wrong, my father will decree that you should sit back and reflect on your mistakes and not see others. Is this okay?"
Linglong nodded: "This is a way, but my father has never punished me. How big of a mistake do I have to make to punish me to shut up and think about my mistakes? This mistake is not easy to find."
Qingshan blinked: "How about you hit me and I will file a complaint?"
Linglong had a disgusted look on her face and said in her heart that even if my hand fell off, I wouldn't be able to kill you. It would be too far-fetched to make a fuss over this.
Qingshan thought for a while: "How about you rob the man? Let Li Guyu pretend?"
Linglong had a look on her face: God, please help me, this husband is probably a fool.
When Qingshan saw her expression, he must have said something wrong.
He thought again: "Otherwise, you would contradict your father. Wouldn't there be a reason for that?"
Linglong nodded: "Yes, the mistake between words can be big or small. That's it. I will go to the palace tomorrow to discuss it with my father, the emperor and my queen."
————
The next day, Qingshan accompanied Linglong into the palace and told the situation to his father, the empress, and the empress. The father, the empress, and the empress thought it was feasible, so they staged a father-daughter battle in the imperial study.
The father and daughter were quarreling while peeling the orange.
The emperor said: "You unfilial daughter! What do you know? Shut up!"
Linglong broke off a piece of orange and stuffed it into her mother's mouth. She shouted back, "Father! I didn't expect you to be so cruel!"
The queen added: "Don't say a few words!"
The emperor peeled a complete orange and picked the white silk: "Am I cruel? I am doing this for your own good! When will you grow up? You bastard!"
The perfect orange flesh was peeled and handed to Linglong.
Holding the exquisite piece in his hand, hehe, it’s an orange peeled by his father.
He shouted: "There is no such cruel father in the world!"
Seeing that the family of three was having a lot of fun, Qingshan said his line in embarrassment: "Linglong, don't contradict your father."
The queen also asked: "What happened to you child today?"
The emperor roared angrily: "If that's the case, you don't have to come to say hello anymore! Get out! Get out of here!"
The roar made the old emperor's head spin. Linglong quickly presented a cup of tea. The emperor took a sip and calmed down.
Linglong replied angrily: "Get out of here!"
The emperor roared angrily: "I shut myself up and think about my mistakes! There is no need to see anyone! Bastard!"
After shouting, he asked Linglong in a low voice: "Does it look like it? Does it look like it?"
The two men high-fived each other, and Linglong whispered excitedly: "They are so alike! My father is mighty! My son, please retire!"
Qingshan was speechless and sweating. These two men were having so much fun.
It was time for Qingshan to come on stage, and he pulled Linglong out. Linglong shouted angrily: "Isn't it just a grounding? Isn't it just a closed door to think about your past! Huh! My father is partial!"
The two left the palace in a hurry.
Returning to the princess mansion, the door was locked. Shut up and think about your mistakes.
The news spread quickly throughout the palace. The princess contradicted the Holy Emperor. The father and daughter had an earth-shattering quarrel. The princess had been banned from seeing anyone.
Qi Jungon hurried over to the emperor to plead for mercy.
The father and son chatted in a low voice, and Qi Jungon also participated in the performance. He looked heartbroken and helpless, and returned to the East Palace with his face covered.
Not an hour later, Qi Linlang also came to plead for mercy. He walked out of the imperial study room in despair again.
The whole palace knew that the princess had fallen out of favor and was locked up.
————
The news spread throughout Yucheng before dark.
The officials and the royal family all knew about it.
This time, even if they were invited, they would not go to greet Princess Linglong and give her gifts.
This princess's mansion went from being in the limelight to being deserted in an instant.
Qingshan sighed: "City people are so realistic."
Linglong snickered: "It's better if no one comes. Especially those cousins."
"How many princesses are there?"
"Well, they all look gentle and sensible, and they are cute, but they talk too much. They are very verbose."
Qingshan shook his head and sighed: "People in the city are so complicated. It's quiet this time, so we can have a good pregnancy. Wife, what are you craving for? I'll do it for you."
The couple returned to the bedroom, bolted the door, and stepped into the space.
Linglong walked around the breeding area and was tired of eating every kind of livestock.
"Husband~ I want to eat a snake."
Qingshan's eyes widened: "Calling people to be snakes? You have to go to Qingfeng Mountain to do that."
Linglong snorted: "Other snakes will do, too."
Qingshan nodded: "Ordinary snakes are easy to handle. You rest, I will go to Xiaofeng Mountain to hunt down a pair."
He was hunting in Xiaofeng Mountain, and whenever he took action, he would kill a pair. Otherwise, Linglong's heart is so soft, and she will definitely be sad about the separation of life and death between the snake couple.
