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

Yes, how could she forget? She knew better than anyone how smart she was.

"But, but I'm afraid I can't keep up with my studies..." she said worriedly.

"Wan'er," Lin Wanqing comforted her, "It's okay. You've done well. You don't have to feel guilty. You just need to remember one thing—no matter what happens, I will always stand behind you and support you."

Lin Wan'er was filled with gratitude and her eyes gradually turned red.

"Thank you sister!"

"Silly girl, drink the medicine quickly."

Lin Wan'er picked up the spoon again and carefully fed the medicine into her mouth, leaving not a drop behind.

Lin Wanqing gently stroked her long hair: "Be good, go to sleep."

"Yeah!" Lin Wan'er responded obediently, lying down and closing her eyes to rest.

Seeing this, Lin Wanqing tucked the quilt for her and left the room quietly.

Outside the corridor, a maid was looking around anxiously. Seeing her come out, she hurried to greet her: "Princess, you are finally out. The prince just came back from the study and asked you to go to his courtyard quickly."

Lin Wanqing frowned upon hearing this and asked calmly, "Your Highness, do you have something to talk to me about?"

The maid shook her head, "This servant does not know. Please follow me, Madam."

"Okay, lead the way." Lin Wanqing walked forward.

Lin Wanqing followed the maid towards the hall, and just as she reached the door, she met a man in white.

"Your Highness." Lin Wanqing bowed slightly.

Lu Shengyuan glanced at her lightly and walked straight past her.

Lin Wanqing quickly followed him: "Your Highness, I wonder what you want from me so late at night?"

Lu Shengyuan paused, turned around and looked at her, his tone cold, "The third princess will be leaving for her marriage in a few days, and she said she wanted to see you."

Lin Wanqing was slightly stunned when she heard this. The third princess?

"What does she want to see me for?" Lin Wanqing asked in confusion.

"How would I know? You'll know once you go there." Lu Shengyuan's tone was filled with impatience.

Lin Wanqing's heart sank slightly. Why did the Third Princess want to see her at this time?

"I almost forgot that the third princess is going to marry." Lin Wanqing chuckled, "Then I will go to see her now."

After saying that, she turned and walked out of the yard.

Lu Shengyuan stood there, gazing deeply at her receding figure, a complex light flashing in his eyes.

Lin Wanqing followed the maid all the way to the third princess's bedroom. As soon as she reached the door, she heard a low sob coming from inside.

She frowned slightly, raised her hand and knocked lightly on the door: "Third Princess, your concubine Lin Wanqing requests to see you."

"Come in." A slightly choked voice came from inside the room.

Lin Wanqing pushed open the door and walked in, only to see the third princess sitting in front of a bronze mirror, carefully examining her own face. Her eyes were slightly red, and her face was full of reluctance and sorrow.

"Greetings, Third Princess." Lin Wanqing bowed.

The third princess turned around, and at that moment, it seemed as if the light of the entire palace was gathered on her. She looked at Lin Wanqing with a faint smile in her eyes, as if the spring breeze was blowing across the lake, gentle and refreshing.

"Sister Lin, you're here." She said softly, with a hint of joy and anticipation in her voice.

Lin Wanqing nodded, her eyes swept lightly over the third princess's gorgeous palace dress, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and then asked, "The Third Princess asked me to come here, but what's the matter?"

The third princess did not answer immediately. Her eyes were as gentle as water, as if she could see into people's hearts.

She looked Lin Wanqing up and down, then said softly, "I just wanted to come and see you."

"Look at me?" Lin Wanqing was slightly stunned. She didn't expect the third princess to say that.

The third princess chuckled, her laughter carrying a hint of mischief and cunning.

"Well, I'm going to marry soon and I'll never come back. Before I leave, the only thing I'm worried about is you, so I wanted to come see you and say goodbye to you in person."

Hearing this, Lin Wanqing felt a warm feeling in his heart.

She didn't expect that there was someone in this palace who treated her so sincerely. Her eyes became slightly moist and she almost shed tears.

The third princess stood up and walked in front of Lin Wanqing.

"Sister Lin, after I leave, you must take good care of yourself, understand?"

"Yes, I will." Lin Wanqing nodded heavily, her voice trembling slightly.

The Third Princess smiled with relief. She gently patted the back of Lin Wanqing's hand and said, "Sister Lin, don't worry. I will be fine and won't let you worry. Besides, I believe that we will meet again one day."

Hearing this, Lin Wanqing's eyes became moist again.

"Well, I also believe that we will meet again." Lin Wanqing nodded vigorously, his voice choked.

Seeing this, the Third Princess hugged her gently and said softly, "Sister Lin, don't cry. Your makeup won't look good if you cry."

Lin Wanqing burst into laughter upon hearing this. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said to the Third Princess, "Third Princess, you must take care of yourself too. The road to marriage is extremely dangerous. You must be extra careful."

"Don't worry, I will." The Third Princess smiled slightly, with a hint of determination and composure in her smile. "I am the princess of Daxia, I will not be bullied easily."

Lin Wanqing looked at the third princess's determined eyes and couldn't help but admire her more.

She knew that this seemingly weak woman was actually stronger than anyone else.

"Then I'll go first, Sister Lin, take care." The third princess let go of her and turned to walk towards the door.

"Third Princess, take care." Lin Wanqing watched her leave until her figure disappeared from sight.

After the third princess left, Lin Wanqing stood there alone, feeling an inexplicable melancholy in her heart.

She knew that this separation might be eternal life.

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and turned to leave. However, as soon as she reached the door, she saw a familiar figure.

Lu Shengyuan had arrived here at some point and was standing quietly at the door, looking at her with deep eyes.

"Your Highness?" Lin Wanqing was slightly stunned. She didn't expect to meet him here.

Lu Shengyuan looked at her, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

"Have you met the third princess?" he asked lightly.

"Yeah." Lin Wanqing nodded, "That's it."

Lu Shengyuan was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Spend less time with them in the future."

Lin Wanqing was stunned when he heard this, and looked at him in confusion: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

"You just heard that they're all going to marry into a foreign alliance," Lu Shengyuan said coldly. "If you get too close to them, it'll have a bad influence on you."
