Chapter 194 It Won’t Be Easy
The emperor looked at her departing back, a hint of deep thought flashing in his eyes.
Princess Huiyang has always liked Lu Shengyuan, but Lu Shengyuan has no interest in her at all.
Now that he has married Lin Wanqing as his princess, Princess Huiyang is naturally unwilling.
However, he couldn't be too partial to Princess Huiyang, otherwise it would cause Lu Shengyuan's dissatisfaction.
It seems that he needs to think carefully about how to balance the relationship between them.
The emperor thought about it and summoned Lu Shengyuan.
Lu Shengyuan came to the imperial study and bowed, saying, "Your Highness."
"No need to be polite," the emperor said. "I called you here because of the matter between you and Princess Huiyang."
Lu Shengyuan heard this, and a hint of displeasure flashed across his face: "What could possibly happen between me and Princess Huiyang?"
The emperor looked at his indifferent expression and sighed in his heart: "Don't be too partial to Lin Wanqing. After all, Huiyang and you grew up together. You should take better care of her."
"Your Majesty," Lu Shengyuan said, "I will take good care of my princess. As for the others, it has nothing to do with me."
The emperor was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect Lu Shengyuan to reject him so directly.
Lu Shengyuan has always been like this, but no one expected him to be so determined.
"Shengyuan," the emperor said earnestly, "you are my most valued minister, and I don't want anything to go wrong between you and Huiyang.
Just for my sake, please be more tolerant of her."
Lu Shengyuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
The emperor looked at his expressionless face and knew that he did not take his words to heart.
However, he didn't say anything else. After all, he knew Lu Shengyuan's character very well.
"Well, you can go down now," the emperor said. "I am tired too."
Lu Shengyuan bowed, then turned and left the imperial study.
He walked out of the palace and returned to his own palace.
As soon as he entered the palace, he saw Lin Wanqing walking in the garden.
She was wearing a pink dress, which made her look even more beautiful.
Lu Shengyuan looked at her with a gentle smile on his face.
He walked over to Lin Wanqing and asked gently, "How are you? Are you feeling better?"
When Lin Wanqing saw him coming back, a bright smile appeared on her face: "I'm fine, don't worry."
Lu Shengyuan looked at the smile on her face and felt warm in his heart.
He stretched out his arms and held her tightly in his arms: "Wanqing, I will take good care of you and won't let you get hurt again."
Lin Wanqing leaned in his arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, and felt a sense of security in her heart.
As long as he was by her side, she had nothing to fear.
The two hugged each other for a long time before reluctantly separating.
"Oh right," Lin Wanqing suddenly remembered something, "Princess Huiyang's side..."
"Don't worry about her," Lu Shengyuan interrupted her, "I'll take care of it."
Lin Wanqing looked at his determined eyes and knew that what he said was true.
At this time, Su Qiaoer came to see Lin Wanqing with some supplements.
"Princess sister, how are you feeling recently?" Su Qiaoer said in a delicate voice.
Lin Wanqing looked at her hypocritical appearance and felt sick in her heart: "I'm fine, there's no need for Aunt Su to worry about me."
Su Qiaoer looked at her, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes: "Sister Princess, you are so lucky to have the prince dote on you so much.
Unlike me, I can only stay by Master Lu Ming's side and can't go anywhere."
Lin Wanqing sneered in his heart when he heard this.
Su Qiaoer said this on purpose.
"Mrs. Su," Lin Wanqing said calmly, "Everyone has his or her own destiny. You, you don't have to envy me.
As long as you serve Master Lu Ming well, he will not treat you unfairly."
Su Qiaoer heard this, and a trace of displeasure flashed across her face: "Sister Princess, it's easy for you to say that. How could you know how hard I've been?"
Lin Wanqing looked at her and didn't want to continue this topic: "Auntie Su, if there is nothing else, you can go back.
I still need to rest.”
Su Qiaoer looked at her, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes.
Lin Wanqing didn't take her seriously at all.
"Sister Princess," Su Qiao'er suddenly said, "Do you know that the princess has been sent back by the prince? She is the emperor's most beloved niece. You have offended her this time, and you will suffer the consequences in the future."
When Lin Wanqing heard this, his expression changed slightly.
What Su Qiaoer said was true.
Princess Huiyang is the emperor's most beloved niece. If she offends her this time, she will probably have a hard time in the future.
But she doesn't regret it either.
After all, she couldn't just watch Princess Huiyang hurt Lu Shengyuan.
"Auntie Su," Lin Wanqing looked at her, "Thank you for your reminder.
But, I don't regret doing it.
As long as the prince is fine, I am not afraid of anything."
Su Qiaoer looked at her determined eyes and felt jealous.
She didn't understand why Lin Wanqing was so lucky to get Lu Shengyuan's love.
But she could only stay by Lu Ming's side and could not go anywhere.
Su Qiaoer thought about it, and a hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes.
She wanted to see how long Lin Wanqing could be so proud.
"Xiao Cui!" Su Qiaoer shouted.
"Aunt, do you have any instructions?" Xiao Cui hurried forward.
Su Qiaoer looked at her and said, "Go and ask what the princess has been doing recently."
Hearing this, Xiao Cui showed a trace of embarrassment on her face: "Auntie, this... is not good, right?"
She knew that Su Qiaoer and the princess did not get along, but she did not dare to ask about the princess's whereabouts.
If the prince finds out, she will be in big trouble.
"Just go when I tell you to," Su Qiao'er looked at her, "Why all the nonsense?"
Xiao Cui had no choice but to agree: "Yes, Auntie."
Then he quickly retreated.
After a while, Xiao Cui came back and said, "Auntie, I found out.
The princess is going to the temple to burn incense soon."
"Oh?" Su Qiao'er's eyes flashed when she heard this, "This is a good opportunity!"
"Auntie," Xiao Cui looked at her, "what do you want to do?"
Su Qiaoer laughed sweetly: "Of course I'm going to touch the princess, maybe I can climb up the ladder."
As she spoke, she stood up, walked to the bronze mirror, and looked at her appearance carefully.
She was already good-looking, and after dressing up carefully, she looked even more charming and beautiful.
"Xiao Cui," Su Qiao'er said, "please accompany me to the temple."
Xiao Cui looked at her and hesitated: "Auntie, this..."
"Don't worry," Su Qiaoer interrupted her, "I won't let you do anything dangerous. You just need to accompany me."
Xiao Cui had no choice but to agree: "Yes, Auntie."
The next day, Su Qiaoer took Xiao Cui to the temple.
As soon as they arrived at the temple, they saw Princess Huiyang walking down surrounded by a crowd of people.
Seeing this, Su Qiaoer quickly pulled Xiao Cui over.
"Princess," Su Qiao'er said delicately, "What a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here."
