The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

"The Second Prince has no one to serve him. Lately he has been twisting and turning like a worm that has been pissed on."

"Puch."

Lu Zhaoling couldn't help herself when she heard this.

"Where did you learn these words as a little girl?"

"What's the big deal? My cousins and aunts talked about it behind my back a lot. I overheard it."

Qiu Yunzhen said, "I'm alone in the capital and I don't have any friends. I don't know where to go for fun. If I go out for horseback riding or archery, there will always be people around me who will meddle in my affairs, saying that I will be the second prince's consort in the future and should be dignified and not do those things anymore."

"I'm so confused. This capital city is so boring. I don't even have anyone to chat with."

Qiu Yunzhen complained a lot.

Lu Zhaoling asked, "Aren't you and Shen Xiangjun good sisters?"

When Qiu Yunzhen first came to Beijing, she said that she and Shen Xiangjun were like sisters.

Hearing Lu Zhaoling's question now, Qiu Yunzhen snorted, as if he had more complaints to vent.

But Lu Zhaoling said that her home was almost there, and Qiu Yunzhen swallowed her words helplessly.

"Don't mention her. If you do, I'll get really angry."

It seems they had a falling out.

"Then you haven't told me why you want to divorce the Second Prince."

"I've said so much, but you still don't understand?" Qiu Yunzhen looked at her in disbelief. "There's not even any wedding yet, and there are already so many disgusting things happening in the Second Prince's Mansion. Now that Miss Linglong is trying her best to get into the Second Prince's Mansion. If I try to stop her, she'll be sold by the madam, which is also miserable."

"So I don't plan to get involved in this matter. Then she will most likely enter the Second Prince's residence, and then she will inevitably quarrel with Lu Zhaoyun endlessly in the residence. When I think about having to face those things every day in the future, I will go crazy!"

Lu Zhaoling was silent.

Qiu Yunzhen was a little sad again, "But my uncle and aunt have told me that we can't disobey the order and cancel the engagement. I must marry into the Second Prince's mansion. I don't want to cause trouble for my father, so I'll just marry him."

"It's just that after I get married, I will try to find a way to get a divorce. After making a scene in front of the emperor, I would like to ask my senior brother, Prince, to help me put in a few words so that the emperor can allow the divorce."

This was the best solution she could think of.

"Have you made up your mind to divorce?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

"Yes." Qiu Yunzhen gritted her teeth and said, "I don't want to be the Second Prince's consort either. When the time comes, Concubine Shu and the others will definitely use me to threaten my father and the others, and they will all stand on the Second Prince's side, but I don't want to."

Qiu Yunzhen said in a very low voice, "I think the Second Prince is not a good person."

She didn't want the second prince to inherit that position at all. But Concubine Shu and the others were determined to fight for it, and she would bring trouble to the entire Qiu family in the future.

Lu Zhaoling didn't expect Qiu Yunzhen to say this to her.

Does this mean you trust her very much?

But didn’t Qiu Yun really dislike her before?

Moreover, Qiu Yunzhen seems to have grown a lot in the past year and a half. I still don’t know what happened to him in the capital during this period.

Lu Zhaoling looked at Qiu Yunzhen's face carefully.

She hadn't paid much attention to it before.

After reading it now, Lu Zhaoling frowned and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"However, the matter between me and the Second Prince will have to wait until you and Senior Brother Wangye get married."

Qiu Yunzhen added, "So I'm not in a hurry. I just want to talk to my senior brother first so that he can be prepared. I also need to plan slowly."

"Miss, we've arrived at Miss Lu's house." The maid's voice came from outside.

Lu Zhaoling reported his location when he got on the carriage.

"Is it so close? How come it's here after just a few words?" Qiu Yunzhen muttered somewhat unhappily.

She had been talking all the way, and she had said so many words, but she only said a few words.

Lu Zhaoling didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

A year and a half ago, she had never thought that she would gossip for as long as she and Qiu Yunzhen and her close friends did.

She lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.

"Since you know that your marriage with the Second Prince has not yet arrived, don't mess around. Eat well, drink well, have fun, and write more letters to your father."

Lu Zhaoling said this to Qiu Yunzhen, and then said, "You don't have to interfere in the Second Prince's affairs."

"I know."

Qiu Yunzhen also leaned out and looked towards the gate, then asked in shock, "You live here?"

"Yeah, that's right."

Lu Zhaoling no longer minds people knowing where her home is.

"Such a dense tree..." Qiu Yunzhen didn't recognize it as a locust tree, but she didn't mind it. She soon became happy, "Your house is easy to recognize. Can I come and talk to you when I have time in the future?"

Lu Zhaoling asked teasingly, "When did you and I become so close?"

"Not very good!" Qiu Yunzhen immediately raised her chin and said a little proudly, "But my father told me to listen to you! Besides, you will soon be the princess of Senior Brother Jin Wang, so you can be my sister-in-law. Although I don't like you very much, we are not outsiders."

"You are not allowed to refuse!" Qiu Yunzhen glared at Lu Zhaoling fiercely, "You also stayed at our house when you went to Subei! I just came here to chat, why can't you let me come?"

Lu Zhaoling turned around and waved her hand. "Go back quickly," she said to Ma Xiaoliu who had come out to greet her. "Xiaoliu, ride your horse all the way to send her back."

Ma Xiaoliu also went to the Marquis' Mansion today, but after the incident happened, he left first with the guests.

Now hearing Lu Zhaoling's words, he immediately responded and led the horse out.

"Miss Qiu, I will ride on horseback behind your carriage."

Qiu Yunzhen snorted and lowered the curtain, and the sound came from behind the curtain.

"It's just such a short distance, do I really need your escort?"

But she didn't refuse at all.

After the carriage had moved a distance away, Qiu Yunzhen whispered to the driver, "Do you remember this place?"

"Miss, I will remember this."

"Then when I ask you to take me here from now on, you are not allowed to take the wrong road!"

"Yes, yes, yes." The driver responded quickly.

Lu Zhaoling felt very hungry when she arrived at Huaiyuan.

Aunt Liu and the others quickly served the food.

"You and the prince went to the marquis's mansion, but you didn't even have a bite to eat at the banquet?" Aunt Liu asked.

"I don't have time to eat."

Lu Zhaoling picked up the bowl, her stomach growling, "I'll be busy once I get there."

She was halfway through her meal when Yin Yunting and the others came back.

Yin Yunting opened a small box of gold and showed it to Lu Zhaoling.

"Given by the Marquis's Mansion."

"That's quite smart." Lu Zhaoling's eyes lit up when he saw the gold.

Most of the money she earned before was used for disaster relief, and she felt insecure when her pocket was empty.

"What does the Marquis' Mansion plan for the Second Miss Deng?" Lu Zhaoling asked again.

"The Marquis and his wife are kind," Rong Jingjing said with a sigh, "They decided to let Miss Deng stay."
