The bad husband wanted to bring his second wife into the house, so I turned around and became his st

Lin Wanqing thought about this and felt relieved.

"Your Highness, let's have dinner here tonight," Lin Wanqing said. "I'll go to the kitchen and make a few side dishes."

"Okay," Lu Shengyuan said, "I will accompany you."

"No need," Lin Wanqing said, "Your Highness must be tired after a day of official business. Just rest here. I'll be back soon."

After saying that, Lin Wanqing turned and went to the kitchen.

Lu Shengyuan looked at Lin Wanqing's back and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He is really happy now.

Lin Wanqing went to the kitchen and started to get busy.

Although she doesn't cook often, she is a good cook.

Before long, a table full of delicious dishes was prepared.

"Princess, let me help you serve the dishes," the maid said.

"No need," Lin Wanqing said, "You've been busy all day and must be tired. Go down and rest early. I can handle this myself."

"Yes," the maid said, "if the princess has any instructions, please call us."

"Ah."

Lin Wanqing returned to the room with the prepared meal.

"Your Highness, it's time to eat," Lin Wanqing said.

"Okay," Lu Shengyuan said, "Thank you for your hard work, Princess."

"It's not hard," Lin Wanqing said, "as long as His Majesty likes it."

The two of them sat together for dinner, and the atmosphere was very warm.

"Your Highness, I offer you a toast," Lin Wanqing said, picking up the glass. "Thank you for taking care of me during this time."

"You're too polite, Princess." Lu Shengyuan raised his glass, clinked it with Lin Wanqing's, and said, "We are husband and wife. It's my duty to take care of you."

After they finished their drink, they continued to eat.

After finishing their meal, the two went for a walk in the garden together.

"Your Highness, let's just live an ordinary life here from now on." Lin Wanqing looked at Lu Shengyuan and said softly, "I won't care about the chaos outside anymore."

"Okay." Lu Shengyuan replied, "As long as Princess is willing, I can give up everything for you and just stay with you forever."

"Your Highness." Lin Wanqing was touched and smiled. "Thank you very much, Your Highness."

"Silly girl." Lu Shengyuan reached out and gently pinched her nose. "You are my wife. Do I need to thank you for everything I have done for you?"

The two smiled at each other, the atmosphere was just right, and suddenly the Crown Princess arrived.

"Your servant pays homage to Her Majesty the Crown Princess." Lin Wanqing bowed politely.

"Lin Wanqing, why do we have to be so polite?" The Crown Princess personally helped Lin Wanqing up, looked her up and down, and sighed, "You have suffered."

"Thank you, Her Majesty, for your concern. I am fine." Lin Wanqing smiled and shook her head.

"That's good." The Crown Princess pulled her to sit down and said, "I just heard the news and rushed over, but I didn't expect..."

She looked at Lin Wanqing with a hint of relief in her eyes, "Fortunately, my sister is fine, all thanks to the prince."

"You are too kind, Princess." Lu Shengyuan bowed.

"Your Highness, what are you talking about?" The Crown Princess laughed. "The one I should thank is my sister. If it weren't for my sister's sacrifice to save me, I..."

She hesitated to speak, and gently patted Lin Wanqing's hand, "Fortunately, it's all over. Sister, you can spend more time with me in the future. There's no need to be so formal between you and me."

"Your Majesty is right." Lin Wanqing nodded.

"It's getting late, so I won't disturb my sister's rest." The Crown Princess glanced out the window and spoke in a gentle voice.

"Thank you, Her Majesty the Crown Princess, for your concern." Lin Wanqing said goodbye.

The two were still as polite and considerate as when they first met.

After seeing off the Crown Princess, Lin Wanqing looked at Lu Shengyuan and asked, "Your Highness, what should we do next?"

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Lu Shengyuan gently held her hand, "Just take good care of your injuries, and leave everything else to me."

"Yeah." Lin Wanqing nodded, feeling at ease.

Lu Shengyuan went to the study and discussed the next strategy with his advisers.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince and the Second Prince have completely fallen out, and we can reap the benefits." The counselor analyzed.

"Yes." Lu Shengyuan nodded. "Have the people below prepared. Once there is an opportunity, take decisive action."

"Yes." The counselor replied.

Lu Shengyuan returned to the room and saw that Lin Wanqing had already fallen asleep. He tiptoed to the bedside and looked at her sleeping face carefully.

She has really lost a lot of weight these days.

He felt a slight pain in his heart and gently held her hand.

Lin Wanqing felt his presence in a daze. She opened her eyes, looked at him, and said softly, "My Lord, you are back."

"Yeah." Lu Shengyuan nodded. "Did I wake you up?"

"No." Lin Wanqing shook his head, "I'm just a little thirsty."

Upon hearing this, Lu Shengyuan immediately stood up to pour water. He helped Lin Wanqing sit up and fed her some water.

Lin Wanqing looked at him, feeling warm in her heart.

"Your Highness, do you think we will become like the Crown Prince and the Second Prince in the future?" she suddenly asked.

"No." Lu Shengyuan shook his head firmly, "I will never let you fall into that situation."

"I believe in the prince." Lin Wanqing nodded. She leaned in his arms, listening to his heartbeat, and felt at peace.

The two of them fell asleep in each other's arms and had a good night's sleep.

The next morning, Lin Wanqing had just finished washing up when she suddenly heard a noise outside.

"What's going on outside?" Lin Wanqing asked with a frown.

"Don't worry, Princess. I'll go and take a look." Qingmei immediately went out to check the situation.

After a while, she came back with an ugly look on her face, "Princess, it's...it's Aunt Su Qiaoer who's here."

"What is she doing here?" Lin Wanqing frowned.

"Princess, I think Aunt Su is here with bad intentions, so you have to be careful," Qingmei reminded.

"Okay, I understand." Lin Wanqing nodded, she stood up and walked out of the room.

In the yard, Su Qiaoer was standing in a plain white dress. When she heard footsteps, she immediately turned around and saw Lin Wanqing.

"Princess." She bowed gracefully with a smile on her face, as if nothing that had happened before had happened.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Wanqing asked coldly.

"Princess, I'm here to apologize to you." Su Qiao'er said, suddenly kneeling down, "I was wrong before, please forgive me."

Lin Wanqing looked at her with a frown.

Su Qiao'er has always been proud and arrogant. She suddenly became so humble, there must be something wrong.

"Su Qiaoer, just tell me what you want to do?" Lin Wanqing asked coldly.

"Princess, I'm not here to cause trouble. I'm truly here to apologize." Su Qiao'er looked up at Lin Wanqing, her eyes filled with earnestness. "Princess, please give me a chance."

Lin Wanqing looked at her without saying anything.

"Princess, I know you resent me, but I had no choice." Su Qiao'er said, and burst into tears, "Princess, please forgive me this time for the sake of my past service to you."

Lin Wanqing still didn't speak. She looked at Su Qiaoer coldly, alert in her heart.

"Princess, if you don't forgive me, I won't get up." Su Qiaoer said, leaning over and kowtowing.

Lin Wanqing still didn't speak. She turned around and wanted to go back to her room.

Seeing this, Su Qiaoer suddenly stood up and rushed over.

"Princess, please!" She hugged Lin Wanqing's legs and cried bitterly.

Lin Wanqing was hugged by her legs and could not move. Her face darkened and she shouted, "Su Qiaoer, what are you doing? Let go!"

"Princess, please forgive me." Su Qiao'er not only did not let go, but hugged him even tighter.

Lin Wanqing's face darkened and he was about to get angry when he suddenly heard footsteps.

She turned her head and saw Lu Shengyuan walking towards her.
