Chapter 175: Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills
"For so many years, Princess Lingnan has threatened me to do a lot of things for her. Whether it was the Lingnan Mansion or in the palace, she made me do a lot of things. β
Concubine De's words were a little cold.
Proud as she is, how can she easily become a puppet of others?
All these compromises are just waiting for an opportunity to settle down.
"The reason why she is so rampant is because she holds the same object in her hand, which is my handle."
Concubine De's face was a little frosty, and the corners of her mouth were a little cold.
"So the reason why the mother concubine is compromised is to be able to take back the things in the hands of Princess Lingnan?"
Lin Mengya's head turned quickly, and she immediately saw Concubine De's intentions.
"You're half right, actually, that thingβ"
Concubine De's words were interrupted by a female voice.
"Sister Concubine De, just now, it's my sister's fault, don't be angry."
Not far away, Princess Lingnan took Shangguan Hui with a smile on her face and walked to Concubine De's side.
"Wherever you are, it's all your own sisters. It's just that there's been a lot of things lately, and I've been talking and rushing a little, so don't take my sister to heart. β
Lin Mengya realized that the best acting skills in the emotional family are definitely her mother-in-law, Concubine De.
Look, just a turn of face, she has become a tragic heroine again.
Every expression on that face was a little pretended to be calm.
If she hadn't told Lin Mengya the truth before, even Lin Mengya felt that Concubine De must be afraid of Princess Lingnan's death.
It's just, Shangguan Hui?
Lin Mengya thought about it, the Shangguan family in Kyoto is the queen's maiden family.
Could it be that this girl is from the queen's side?
Carefully observed Shangguan Hui, gentle as water, and did not have half of the grandeur of the Shangguan family at all.
Or, that's what she's by nature.
Or, that's what she's pretending to be.
In short, she still has to be careful.
"Sister, blame me, brought someone from the Shangguan family, right? My sister really misunderstood me, although Hui'er is a side branch of the Shangguan family, it has nothing to do with that room. It's also that I didn't think it through, so it's no wonder my sister is angry. β
Princess Lingnan is also good at singing, one move and one style, it really seems like that.
Lin Mengya still maintained an arrogant appearance, without picking her eyelids, standing beside Concubine De.
"How so? The young ladies of the Shangguan family, whether they are side branches or their own families, are all good. β
Concubine De is like a frightened bird, exuding an uncomfortable appearance everywhere.
Princess Lingnan must have felt that she was going to beat Concubine De, and with a little pride on her face, she commanded.
"I still have some things to talk about with Concubine De, why don't you ask Princess Yu to take Hui'er and visit the palace?"
Princess Lingnan is not afraid that Lin Mengya will not agree, after all, Concubine De has to be at her mercy.
"Ya'er, you can take Miss Shangguan and go around the palace. I... I don't care. β
Concubine De's eyes drooped slightly, with a somewhat unnatural smile.
Lin Mengya felt that the scene had also arrived, so she gave a blessing, ignored Guan Hui, and walked over alone.
"Go ahead, although Ya'er has a bigger temper, she is a good boy, Miss Shangguan, don't blame her."
Shangguan Hui's smile was shy and pitiful.
turned around and followed Lin Mengya.
"Sister Concubine De, the account between us, it's time to settle it."
Princess Lingnan's eyes showed a cruel smile.
"Okay."
A strange smile passed quickly from Concubine De's lips.
The two of them turned behind the flowers, not knowing what they were talking about.
Although Lin Mengya was walking in front, she was casually paying attention to her every move behind.
Shangguan Hui seems to be really as demure as she looks on the surface.
Lin Mengya rolled her eyes, but stopped at a pool in the Imperial Garden.
"It is said that Princess Yu is smart and wise, and when I see it today, she is really not a mortal."
There is no Concubine De around, and there is no Princess Lingnan.
But Shangguan Hui seems to be much more and more real.
There was a little less virtuous fairy spirit, the kind of faint arrogance that only smart women have, which made Lin Mengya secretly raise her eyebrows.
She said, where are there so many virtuous ladies in this world.
"At the chrysanthemum banquet, I still keep the mask given by the princess as a thought. The princess won't forget about it so soon, right? β
Hearing her mention the chrysanthemum feast, Lin Mengya immediately thought of a woman with a mask.
looked at Shangguan Hui's figure, as if it was exactly the same as the person who spoke out with his face covered!
"So it's you? It turned out to be you? β
Lin Mengya was a little surprised, no matter what, Shangguan Hui is also from the Shangguan family.
Shangguan Hui nodded with a smile and said:
"It's me, I'm willing to help the princess, but unfortunately, my identity is a little sensitive. The queen is here, and I have to be careful. β
can be diligent with nothing, but Lin Mengya always feels that something is wrong.
Especially, it is a smart woman like Shangguan Hui.
"It's just that Mengya doesn't know why, Miss Shangguan, would even think of helping me?"
Shangguan Hui looked at Lin Mengya's eyes, blinked suddenly, and then, his face turned a little red.
"That's a bit hard to talk about. If I say that I am for... And what about the Major General? β
Major General? Lin Mengya was stunned, could it be that she was talking about her brother, Lin Nansheng?
"I... I'm just the daughter of a side branch of the Shangguan family who doesn't pay attention. Although I was born from a descendant, my family declined, and I could only become someone else's tool. But since, at a banquet three years ago, I saw the major general, and I felt that no man in the world could compare to him. β
This answer really surprised Lin Mengya.
Oh, my God! Shangguan Hui likes her brother?
Although her brother is handsome and heroic, he is indeed a man of the first rank in time.
But there was Sister Yue Ting who worked hard in the front, and Shangguan Hui fell in love at first sight.
This... Isn't that ridiculous?
It's just that Sister Yue Ting is still cold, she can't do this kind of thing that is tantamount to betraying Sister Yue Ting.
"I understand Miss Shangguan's affection on behalf of my brother, but, you also know, my brother doesn't know about Miss Yue's family yet. If he knew, what would have happened was something I couldn't have predicted. Therefore, I advise Miss Shangguan not to put all her thoughts on my brother. β
Lin Mengya has clear grievances, and Shangguan Hui helped her, so she will not take revenge.
It's just that the people of their Lin family are all infatuated seeds.
Daddy is, and my brother is not far behind.
What I am most afraid of is that Sister Yue Ting has passed away, but it is my brother's heart that is buried with her.
Even if she was selfish, she didn't want her brother to be lonely all his life.
Now, of course, is not the time to talk about it.
Shangguan Hui's smile was also a little dim.
It's just that after a second, it turned into a confident smile.
"I know about Miss Yue's family, and I also know that Miss Yue's family must have been framed."
Lin Mengya's heart moved slightly, and only a very few people knew the inside story of the situation at that time.
Shangguan Hui, how do you know?
seemed to be a little excited, but Shangguan Hui took Lin Mengya's hand, looked at her eyes, and said with great sincerity.
"The Shangguan family has long been in collusion with King Ming, the young lady of the Yue family, I have met a few times, and frankly speaking, she is a very rare woman. How could a girl who understands etiquette so well take the initiative to do such a reluctant thing with a man. It's not just you who don't believe it, but I don't believe it either. Moreover, he is still the second son of King Ming. What kind of person is he, how can he compare to the major general. β
Lin Mengya didn't expect that Shangguan Hui would analyze it so thoroughly.
Pretend or be sincere.
These words were the first time she heard them after Sister Yue Ting's death, standing on Sister Yue Ting's side.
"I don't know if your words are sincere. But I also have a good impression of you. β
Lin Mengya held Shangguan Hui's hand and said gently.
"It's just that you know what kind of person my brother is. If you have fate, I won't stop you. If not, I hope you can find your home. β
Shangguan Hui laughed happily, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, a little sweeter than honey.
Lin Mengya felt that even if Shangguan Hui didn't tell the truth, she would not fake her brother's affection.
"I know that you have a great relationship with the young lady of the Yue family, and I am really touched that you can say that. I don't know what you're going to do, but I can guess a few points. Don't worry, I'll cooperate with you. β
Shangguan Hui blinked, and then put away the smile on the corner of his mouth.
suddenly took Lin Mengya's hand, and took advantage of the situation to make it look like someone had been pushed down in the pool.
'Poof' and the sound of falling into the water made Lin Mengya a little stunned.
looked at Shangguan Hui, who was pretending to be fluttering energetically below, and winked at herself, and in an instant, she understood where this guy was playing.
She's also- what a man of action!
Since you want to act, you have to act like it.
Bai Su shouted, shouted hard, that is, Miss Shangguan fell into the water. By the way, the girl of the Shangguan family, go find someone quickly, and say that Princess Yu personally pushed Miss Shangguan into the water. β
The two people on the shore in the water looked at each other.
Suddenly, the henchmen of the two families also began to shout loudly.
"Thank you."
A soft sound, but Shangguan Hui heard it clearly.
raised his head and gave Lin Mengya a smile, and then began to flutter again.
The Mid-Autumn Festival night banquet seems to have been lively from the beginning.
"Look at you, what did Miss Shangguan do? How can you push Miss Shangguan into the water! β
In the side hall, a large group of people watched, watching Concubine De reprimand Lin Mengya.
But she looked stubborn and refused to admit her mistake at all.
Every time he glanced at Guan Hui, he glared at others viciously.
"Say, what the hell is going on!"
