The prince kneels every day. Has the princess forgiven him today?

It took Linghua some time to understand what the princess meant, and her eyes gradually widened.

She couldn't help but ask again, "I, I go to the girls' school?"

Reading has always been something that only the young men and women of high-ranking families are qualified to do. How could she, a lowly and inferior maid, be allowed to defile it?

Is the princess deliberately testing her?

Linghua immediately prostrated herself on the ground, begging for mercy in a trembling voice, "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness. I know my humble status and would never dare to have such wishful thinking."

Song Xiwan asked calmly, "What are your concerns?"

The girls' school is located in the capital, and is a branch of Yunhe Academy. It is not very large.

Because she knew that most of the young ladies from wealthy families did not intend to attend this girls' school, nor were they interested in becoming officials in the court.

Especially with that group of so-called talented men fanning the flames and secretly spreading the idea that "marry a virtuous wife, never marry a woman who doesn't take care of the family", even more people backed off.

If no one signs up, even the emperor's approval will be of no use.

Lord Li was so pleased with himself because of this that he kept silent when they met in court, and just let Song Xiwan do what she wanted.

Song Xiwan thought about it and decided that it was okay if she couldn't let the girls from wealthy families attend.

Anyway, from the beginning, this organization was not intended for this group of people who could enter the academy to study since childhood. Her attention should be on the other women.

Girls from ordinary families or slaves are also acceptable.

Identity was never an issue.

Linghua realized later that the princess was serious. She had indeed heard before that the princess was vigorously promoting girls' education, and she felt a little envious.

If she could...

"Princess, I am just a servant."

"I know."

Song Xiwan's voice was very faint, and no emotion could be heard from it.

This shocked Linghua's mind, and for a moment she was tempted to agree, but she whispered, "Once this is exposed, my daughter will definitely not forgive me."

Her parents are dead, and her only wish is that her brother can live well. Her own life doesn't matter to her.

Song Xiwan understood Linghua's concerns, "You are not the one who did something wrong, and you will not be the one who pays the price."

She has given Xu Miaoyi too many chances. Since Xu Miaoyi is determined to commit suicide, she doesn't mind giving her a helping hand.

Linghua lowered her head and said nothing.

This is true, but the world has always looked on indifferently at slaves like them, treating them like ants.

How could she dare to hope?

Song Xiwan did not force Linghua to give an immediate answer, but said: "Think carefully about the matter of the girls' school. Now go back and tell your young lady that you have taken care of it."

Linghua looked up in surprise, then tried to understand the princess's intention.

It is difficult to conclude that Xu Miaoyi wanted to do this based on just this packet of powder and a few words. It would be a different story if we could catch her red-handed.

"Yes, the slaves retire."

Linghua suppressed her wildly beating heart and left the backyard of Prince Xuan's mansion.

Qiu Zhu walked in and asked anxiously, "Cousin, are you crazy? You're capable of doing something like this. Do you want me to tell Mu Yun?"

The prince must be busy at the moment, so he asked Mu Yun to find a few more secret guards to guard the backyard of the palace.

"She's seeking her own death, why should we stop her?"

Song Xiwan didn't take Xu Miaoyi's tricks seriously at all. He was still thinking about Linghua's smart brain. It would be a waste if he didn't cultivate it well.

Qiu Zhu also heard what had just happened and muttered to herself, "Why didn't the young lady think of asking me to go to the girls' school? I'm also very hardworking."

Now that she has followed the girl into the palace, she can no longer be like before.

The girl said, reading more books can make people smarter!

And...she also wants to be appreciated by the girl.

Song Xiwan knew what Qiuzhu's expression was even without lifting the red veil. She has always been someone who can't hide things.

"If you want to go, just go directly. Why do you need me to persuade you?"

Qiu Zhu's eyes lit up and she asked excitedly, "Girl, can I really go?"

Song Xiwan only then realized that she might have cared less about Qiu Zhu. She had no idea that she was so interested in women's education.

She then said, "Of course, you can tell me directly what you want to do in the future."

Qiu Zhu smiled brightly, "As long as I can be with you and help you with things, that's all I want. I don't ask for anything else."

Just like Mu Yun became the prince's right-hand man, she also hoped that she could be the same.

Song Xiwan asked curiously, "Why do you always compare yourself to Mu Yun recently?"

Qiu Zhu was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Because she felt that she was too useless and could not protect the girl when she was in danger, she had to rely on the girl to save her and almost fell into danger.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment.

When Song Xiwan wanted to say something, Xixipo's voice came from outside, "Princess, the prince is ready to come over for the bridal chamber."

The blunt words made Qiu Zhu blush slightly.

Although the girl and the prince...

Song Xiwan was very calm, "I understand."

When she went through this process in her previous life, she was extremely nervous, but Xie Chengqian didn't come the whole night.

After the matchmaker left, Qiu Zhu said cautiously, "Don't be afraid, young lady. I have a way to deal with the blood loss."

Song Xiwan: “?”

Qiu Zhu has really opened her eyes recently and she knows a lot.

It was rare that Qiuzhu wanted to express herself so much, so Song Xiwan didn't say anything and left the matter to her to resolve.

The bridal chamber is not the point, there is also Xu Miaoyi outside who is eyeing them covetously.

Song Xiwan instructed Qiu Zhu, "When the time comes, tell the secret guards not to take action and let her in."

"it is good!"

Qiuzhu took action.

the other side.

Xu Miaoyi knew that Linghua had succeeded, and she was delighted. "You did a great job on this matter. Now it's up to me. If my parents ask, just say that I went back early."

Linghua hid the darkness in her eyes and nodded obediently.

The wedding banquet is coming to an end.

Xu Miaoyi's eyes never left Prince Xuan. Today, he was wearing wedding clothes and looked more approachable than usual. His eyes were filled with a gleam of joy that made people indulge in it.

Such a rare talent is much better than the second son of the Qin family!

After Xie Chengqian toasted a round, he looked obviously drunk. He waved his hand and let Mu Yun support him and go back to the bridal chamber.

No one dared to stop him, let alone make trouble in the bridal chamber. Everyone watched the prince leave in a dignified manner.

In a corner where they couldn't see, Xu Miaoyi quietly sneaked into the backyard of the palace.

She was so nervous that her heart was about to jump out!

Xu Miaoyi secretly advised herself in her heart: Don't be afraid, after today's matter is accomplished, it won't be long before she becomes Prince Xuan's concubine.

Anyway, for the sake of their reputation, the Song and Xu families will definitely help her cover up this matter.

Xu Miaoyi was secretly inquiring about the situation in front of the bridal chamber. There was no one guarding it, which made her look happy.

God is on her side!

Xu Miaoyi didn't dare to delay any longer and hurried to the side of the door and hid.

bide your time.
