Chapter 255 The Grand Finale 2

Some young ladies from noble families recognized Yin Zijin, but they only glanced at her and ignored her. Remembering Yin Zijin's bold behavior in the past, they didn't give her a friendly look.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the group arrived at Qingyu Pavilion, a place where Sheng Muling specially entertained young ladies from prominent families.

Yin Zijin and the others waited in the pavilion for about fifteen minutes when a young eunuch came over, smiled and bowed, saying, "Ladies, please! Her Highness the Princess has been waiting for a long time."

Yin Zijin and the others nodded slightly and followed the eunuch inside.

Upon entering the main hall of Qingyu Pavilion, one is immediately struck by the imperial grandeur: jade towers and golden halls, vermilion pavilions and green tiles—a scene of opulent luxury and solemnity. The only discordant element, however, is the view behind the beaded curtain.

Inside the magnificent palace, a splendid curtain gently hung down, and behind it, Sheng Muling sat steadily on a phoenix chair made of pure gold and carved with exquisite phoenix patterns, exuding an aura of majesty that was impossible to ignore.

Surrounding Sheng Muling were four eunuchs. These eunuchs were exceptionally handsome, with imposing and tall figures, and exuded an extraordinary aura in every gesture.

Two eunuchs were kneeling respectfully on the ground, carefully massaging Sheng Muling's legs. Another eunuch stood behind her, attentively massaging her shoulders, while a third eunuch quietly attended to her, ready to follow her orders and commands.

At this moment, Sheng Muling's face was calm and still, without the slightest ripple. However, from her slightly narrowed eyes and the faint smile at the corner of her mouth, it could be seen that she was thoroughly enjoying the meticulous service from the eunuchs.

Yin Zijin and the others entered the main hall and hurriedly kowtowed, saying, "This humble woman greets Your Highness the Princess. May Your Highness be blessed with ten thousand years of happiness and peace."

The eunuch standing to the side spoke up: "Please rise, everyone. Miss Yin, please stay. The rest of you are to wait at Yixia Garden. Her Highness the Princess will be hosting a banquet there to enjoy flowers, flower arranging, and tea with you all."

Yin Zixiao and Yin Zifeng quickly bowed and said, "Yes, Your Highness, we will take our leave now."

After everyone had left, Sheng Muling waved to Yin Zijing, signaling her to come behind the curtain.

Then, Yin Zijin moved lightly and carefully stepped on her small, delicate three-inch lotus feet, and slowly walked behind the curtain.

Yin Zijing carefully examined Sheng Muling before her, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said softly, "Your Highness, it's been many days since I last saw you. You look much better than before, with a rosy complexion and excellent spirits! You must have been having a very comfortable and pleasant time these past few days!"

Sheng Muling held Yin Zijing's hand, glanced meaningfully at the eunuch beside her, and said with a smile, "With a man to nourish you and no worries about your in-laws, you can live a comfortable and carefree life."

Moreover, I have avenged my great enemy, and Du Lin is dead; I am naturally happy.

Yin Zijing patted Sheng Muling's hand and said knowingly, "It's good that the princess is satisfied. Life is short, so we should enjoy ourselves while we can. Just be careful not to get caught."

Sheng Muling smiled slightly, a smile as radiant as spring flowers in bloom, but upon closer inspection, one could see a faint glimmer of tears in the corners of her eyes.

Her face was rosy, and she slowly said, "It's alright, all of this has been approved by my father and mother. After all, they owe me too much."

Back then, they were willing to sacrifice my entire life's happiness in an attempt to win over the poor and needy. But in the end, it is I who am left battered and bruised, exhausted in body and mind!

I deserve all of this. It's just a pity that I'm afraid I'll never have a child of my own in this lifetime.

Yin Zijing gently patted Sheng Muling's hand to comfort her: "A princess has a noble status. Even without children, she can live a good life."

Sheng Muling quickly replied, "Zijin is right. As a princess of noble birth, I can live however I want. I can live whatever kind of life I want..."

Sheng Muling seemed to remember something and quickly gestured to the eunuch beside her to bring over a wooden box: "Zijin, the matter you asked me to do last time has been taken care of. Take a look. This is 100 mu of fertile land in the suburbs of Beijing, enough for you to grow cotton, right?"

Yin Zijin accepted the land deed and quickly bowed, saying, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Sheng Muling waved her hand and said, "No need. What I lack least is money. If you need any help in the future, just ask and I will definitely help you."

I'll give you these land deeds as well; it's like what you told me before about "investing" in the land.

"Oh! By the way. Zijing, you haven't seen the Crown Prince for so long, have you missed him? I specially invited the Crown Prince to the Princess's residence today, would you like to see him?"
