Unexpected Encounter at the Wine House

  Lian Ping felt stifled in the palace and asked Lian Le to take her out for a stroll.

  Her sharp eyes had just spotted Zilan going out to change the tea water, which was how she found this place.

  As soon as they entered the door, they saw Song Lingyu and hurried over: "Sister Lingyu, I finally found you."

  As for meeting Sixth Princess here, Song Lingyu couldn't help but be surprised. "Sixth Princess, how did you find this place? Please sit down."

  Lian Ping sat down beside Song Lingyu, and Lian Le also sat down across from them.

  As soon as he sat down, Lian Ping apologized to Song Lingyu: "Lingyu sister, I'm sorry. Last time when the Second Brother got married, my stomach hurt so badly that I couldn't make it, so I didn't come to find you. You weren't frozen, were you?"

  Song Lingyu shook her head: "It's okay, it's good that Zhi Lan came to find me later and told me the situation. In the end, I didn't stand for too long either."

  "That's good." Lian Ping nodded slightly. At this time, Zhi Lan had already poured tea for both Lian Ping and Lian Le. Lian Ping took a small sip, originally just to warm himself up. But after the tea entered his mouth, there was a hint of sweetness, the tea flavor spread out, and the aftertaste was rich and mellow. Lian Ping couldn't help but drink several more cups.

  Lian Le looked at Lian Ping who was engrossed in drinking tea and turned his head towards Song Lingyu.

  At this time, Song Lingyu was also looking at him, and when she saw him looking at her, she returned a smile.

  Lian Le's eyes widened, and he turned his head to look at Lian Ping, his pupils deepening. Song Lingyu had reached an agreement with him, she knew what she wanted, but he couldn't figure out her intentions. He couldn't help but worry about Lian Ping, afraid that the simple-minded Lian Ping would be taken advantage of by the cunning Song Lingyu.

  Everyone has someone they want to protect, and for Song Lingyu, that person is naturally the Seventh Prince. In her past life, she didn't pay much attention to this Seventh Prince, thinking he was just like Lian Ziyu, dissatisfied with his own birth. But now she's discovered that she was wrong. He's not like Lian Ziyu at all, and is completely different.

  What Lian Ziyang wants is only to clear his name, and he also has a mother who is jealous of the world. So what he wants is just to climb to a high position and let others not look down on him.

  Lian Le wasn't after that position, he wanted to have enough power. If she guessed correctly, what he wanted was to have enough power to protect the people he wanted to protect, and those people were his foster mother Shao Xianfei and his sister Lian Ping!

  Apart from them, no one else can be his goal. If it were just for that throne, he wouldn't have fallen to this state either.

  No support, just ambition.

  After drinking a few cups of tea, Lian Ping quickly felt the urge to go to the bathroom. He awkwardly told Song Lingyu and then left the private room.

  After the screen had walked far away, Song Lingyu also drove out Zhi Lan and Hui Zhen. There were only two people left in the room, Song Lingyu and Lian Le.

  Song Lingyu picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea, saying absent-mindedly: "Don't worry, I absolutely won't use Lian Ping unless it's absolutely necessary."

  Although Lian Le was somewhat intimidated by Song Lingyu, he wasn't completely afraid of her. "I advise you not to, otherwise even if I have to risk my life, I will drag you down with me."

  "Oh? Same fate? " Song Lingyu put down the teapot and said: "You are a jade, I am just a rough stone. Both jade and stone will be burned to ashes, I don't care. What I'm afraid of is that your jade may not be as hard as my rough stone."
