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

"This is just speculation now. Don't alert the enemy yet. Look into what happened back then in secret."

The second prince nodded, clenched his hands into fists, his eyes full of hatred.

"If I find out that he's involved in what happened back then, I'll make him pay with blood!"

Lin Wanqing looked at the Second Prince like this and sighed in her heart.

Royal affairs are indeed not simple.

Lu Shengyuan stayed with the second prince for a while, then got up and left.

When he returned to the Prince's Mansion, his face still looked very unhappy.

"Prince, this matter involves a wide range of people. If you and the Second Prince investigate openly, you will probably alert the enemy. It would be better to have your subordinates investigate secretly."

Qingfeng suggested.

Lu Shengyuan nodded, "Alright, take the secret guards with you and be sure to be careful."

"Yes." Qingfeng took the order and left.

Lin Wanqing looked at Lu Shengyuan with a frown on his face, walked forward and gently held his hand.

"Don't worry, we'll find out."

Lu Shengyuan looked at her, the coldness in his eyes dissipated a little, and he held her hand instead.

"Yes, I will find out."

In the following days, the Second Prince and Lu Shengyuan openly investigated the officials who had been involved in the incident, while Qingfeng led the secret guards to investigate in secret.

Lin Wanqing still saw those ladies every day, and occasionally went to the palace to accompany the empress dowager. His life was very peaceful.

However, these peaceful days did not last long.

That day, Lin Wanqing had just come out of the palace when she was stopped by someone.

"Lin Wanqing, let's talk."

Lin Wanqing looked at Lin Wan'er in front of her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Since the last incident in the palace, she hasn't seen Lin Wan'er again.

"What is there to talk about between us?"

Lin Wanqing's tone was cold. She really had no good feelings towards Lin Wan'er.

Lin Wan'er looked at her, a hint of hatred flashed in her eyes, but she quickly suppressed it.

"This is not the place to talk. Let's talk somewhere else."

Lin Wanqing wanted to refuse, but then she changed her mind and decided to see what tricks Lin Wan'er was up to.

So she nodded and followed Lin Wan'er to a nearby teahouse.

The two of them requested a private room, and Lin Wan'er got straight to the point, "Lin Wanqing, I know you have a good relationship with the Second Prince. I hope you can help me put in a good word for him."

Hearing this, Lin Wanqing raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her with a smile.

"Lin Wan'er, why do you think I will help you?"

Lin Wan'er looked at her, took a deep breath, and suppressed the anger in her heart.

"As long as you are willing to help me, I can give you money, a lot of money."

She just doesn't believe that there is anyone in this world who doesn't love money!

However, Lin Wanqing just chuckled, his eyes full of mockery.

"Lin Wan'er, you really underestimate me. Do you really think I need your money?"

Lin Wan'er was choked by her words, and her face instantly turned ugly.

"Then what do you want? As long as I can give, I can give it to you!"

Lin Wanqing looked at her with cold eyes.

"Lin Wan'er, remember, not everything in this world can be measured by money. Instead of begging me here, you should think carefully about what you've done!"

After saying that, she stood up and left.

Lin Wan'er pulled Lin Wanqing.

"You can't just ignore me. I'm your cousin. Aren't you afraid your mother will blame you?"

When Lin Wanqing heard this, her face instantly darkened. She shook off Lin Wan'er's hand with force, her eyes full of coldness.

"Lin Wan'er, are you even worthy enough to mention my mother? If you dare mention her again, don't blame me for being rude!"

In her previous life, her mother had been kind to Lin Wan'er and her daughter, but how did they treat her?

Now, Lin Wan'er actually has the nerve to mention her mother!

Lin Wan'er was startled by the coldness in her eyes and for a moment, she forgot to speak.

Lin Wanqing looked at her, sneered, and turned away.

After returning to the Prince's Mansion, she told Lu Shengyuan what happened today.

Upon hearing this, Lu Shengyuan raised his brows slightly, with a hint of displeasure on his face.

"Lin Wan'er is so brave that she actually dares to look for you."

Lin Wanqing chuckled.

"It's no use for her to come to me. I won't help her."

A hint of approval flashed in Lu Shengyuan's eyes.

"You're right. People like her aren't worth helping."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wanqing just smiled and said nothing.

In the following days, Lin Wan'er did not appear again, and Lin Wanqing was happy to have some peace and quiet.

In the blink of an eye, it was the Qiqiao Festival. On this day, Lin Wanqing accompanied Lu Shengyuan to visit the temple fair.

The streets were bustling with people. Lin Wanqing looked at the surrounding scenes, his heart filled with emotion.

In her previous life, she had never celebrated the Qiqiao Festival with her beloved like she did now.

Lu Shengyuan looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness.

"What's wrong? Did you think of something unhappy?"

After hearing this, Lin Wanqing came back to her senses, looked at him and shook her head.

"No, I just feel happy the way I am now."

Upon hearing this, Lu Shengyuan smiled.

"Silly boy, I will spend every Qiqiao Festival with you from now on."

Lin Wanqing looked at him with a smile on her face and her eyes full of love.

The two of them walked around for a long time, until it was getting dark, and then they returned to the Prince's Mansion.

As soon as she returned to the room, Lin Wanqing felt dizzy and fell uncontrollably onto Lu Shengyuan.

Seeing this, Lu Shengyuan hurriedly hugged her, his face full of worry.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Lin Wanqing shook his head, feeling weak all over.

"I'm fine. Maybe I've been walking around for too long today and I'm a little tired."

As she spoke, she tried to break free from Lu Shengyuan's arms and lie down on the bed.

However, Lu Shengyuan did not let her go, but hugged her even tighter.

The next day, when Lin Wanqing woke up, Lu Shengyuan was no longer by her side. She sat up and looked at the sunlight outside the window, her heart filled with sweetness.

Since yesterday, her relationship with Lu Shengyuan has become closer.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, followed by Lu Shengyuan's voice.

"Wanqing, are you awake? I'm coming in."

Hearing this, Lin Wanqing smiled and quickly said, "I'm awake, come in."

Lu Shengyuan pushed the door open and walked in, holding a bowl of steaming porridge in his hand.

"I asked someone to cook some porridge. Drink it while it's hot."

Lin Wanqing looked at him with a happy smile on her face.

"Thank you, Lu Shengyuan."

As she spoke, she took the bowl and began to drink in small sips.

Lu Shengyuan looked at her with tenderness on his face.

"Wanqing, I have something to tell you."

Hearing this, Lin Wanqing put down the bowl in her hand and looked at him.

"what's up?"

Lu Shengyuan looked at her, took a deep breath, and said, "The Queen's birthday banquet will definitely be watched closely this time. As my Princess, you may need to prepare."

When Lin Wanqing heard this, she was stunned and the smile on her face froze instantly.

How could she forget that Lu Shengyuan held great power and was the target of those princes' wooing, and as the princess of a county prince, she naturally became their target as well.
