Chapter 253: The Princess of the Fallen Kingdom 63
Wang Jingshu's family has a great business. She didn't bring much else with her when she entered the palace this time. She only had enough gold, silver and jewelry.
In just a few days, almost everyone in Chaoyang Palace was bribed by her. Others couldn't get out, but she could.
After some arrangements, Wang Jingshu, together with Yan Qingwan and several other daughters of third-rank ministers, slipped out of Chaoyang Palace.
Eunuch Wei did not allow them to go out freely because he was afraid of disturbing the Holy Master. They were not going to meet His Majesty by chance, so it should not be a big problem.
Besides, what if they were discovered? With their family on their side, the most they could get was a few words of reprimand.
Wang Jingshu did not believe that His Majesty would punish them severely without reason.
Unless Your Majesty wants to be known as a foolish king.
"My young masters, follow me." A palace servant met them at the corner gate of the palace.
Wang Jingshu wants to see Jiang You. She is not familiar with the palace and needs someone to guide her.
This palace man was very short of money, so Wang Jingshu gave him a bag of gold leaves, and he was willing to risk beheading to lead her the way.
"Where is she?" Wang Jingshu felt that only by knowing oneself and the enemy could one be invincible in a hundred battles. She wanted to see how beautiful an enemy princess was before letting His Majesty hide her in the Laiyi Palace.
"Come to the Yi Palace." This palace man didn't talk much. He answered questions and led the way.
"Is she hiding in Laiyi Hall all day long because she is afraid that we will cause trouble for her?" Wang Jingshu speculated maliciously, with some contempt.
"I heard that she is the most favored princess in the Jiang Kingdom. She has been loved by thousands of people since she was a child. She should not be afraid of us." Yan Qingwan felt that Wang Jingshu had some brains, but not much.
"So what about the most favored princess? If the Jiang Kingdom is gone, who will recognize her as a princess? Speaking of which, she is now a remnant of the previous dynasty. If not for His Majesty's mercy, she would have died long ago." Wang Jingshu didn't care.
Even if His Majesty likes her, without the strong support of her mother-in-law, she doesn't know how she will die in this cannibal harem.
Moreover, the court officials would not agree to a former princess whose country was ruined and her family was ruined, as their mother. This is why His Majesty has returned to the country for so long and arranged for her to live in the Laiyi Palace, but never mentioned the matter of becoming a queen.
"How far is it? I'm so exhausted." Half an hour later, someone shouted tired.
"I can't walk anymore, my feet hurt so much."
"I can't walk either."
"Sister Jingshu, let's take a break."
They only wanted to meet His Majesty's favorite person, without considering their own strength at all. They were all noble ladies who could not leave the house or step outside the door. They usually had carriages and horses to take them to banquets, so why did they need to walk for so long?
"A bunch of trash!" Wang Jingshu was also tired from walking, but she could persist.
"Wang Jingshu, you are crazy." Yan Qingwan is a little disgusted with her domineering and domineering temperament. "You said you don't take her seriously, but because she is so messed up. You said she was afraid that we would cause trouble. Why didn't you say anything to you?"
Are you afraid of losing to her?"
"Am I afraid of losing to her?" Wang Jingshu panicked. She wanted to be strong all her life and refused to admit that she was afraid. She said harshly, "How can I, Wang Jingshu, be afraid of a lost dog?"
"I hope so." Yan Qingwan felt that her mouth was harder than her bones, and was too lazy to argue with her. She turned to point to a pavilion and said to the others, "There is a pavilion there. Let's go and rest for a while."
Everyone helped each other and walked outside the pavilion, only to find that there were already people inside.
A woman was sitting in the pavilion with her back to them. Her black hair was spread behind her like fine silk. Her waist was slender and graceful. Just her back made people think of her.
Everyone froze on the spot, subconsciously holding their breath for fear of disturbing her.
"...Who are you?" Wang Jingshu broke the calm.
The woman heard the sound and slowly turned around.
