Relax?
Forget it!
“I’m not going.” Ling Jingyan said without thinking: “It’s boring, I’d rather stay on the boat.”
Even if she is killed, she won’t dare to hang out at the pier anymore.
The gangster she met last time didn’t have eyes, so they didn’t notice her, a beautiful flower of a woman. What if she meets a group of people with eyes staring at her this time?
Madam Jiang also said: “What Ah Yan said is true, we still don’t want to go. Anyway, there are still a few days left, just bear with it and it will pass.”
Ling Ji looked at Ling Jingshu again.
Ling Jingshu’s expression was as usual, and she smiled slightly: “Since táng sǎo and Yan tángjiě want to stay on the boat, let me stay too!”
Her smile was like a flower, gentle and graceful. In Ling Ji’s mind, the blood-stained dagger suddenly appeared again…
Ling Ji calmed down, cleared his throat and said, “That’s fine. There are too many people on the pier, it’s okay not to go.”
“However, it’s too stuffy for you to always stay in this cabin. I’ll accompany you guys to the second-floor deck to get some air.”
Just stand on the deck for a while; hopefully, that won’t attract any bandits!
Everyone had no objection this time.
They called Ling Xiao, and with him, there were more than a dozen in the group of five people plus the maids and servants. Standing on the second floor of the official ship, the momentum was quite spectacular.
Fortunately, six ships were blocking the front, and this official ship was still some distance away from the pier.
Ling Ji deliberately took a look at the pier, but he couldn’t see clearly from a distance, and only saw the faint figure, so he was relieved.
Ling Jingshu and Ling Xiao stood together and chatted in low voices. With a sudden movement in her heart, she raised her head.
On the deck of the adjacent ship, a handsome young man in a black brocade robe stood with his hands behind his back.
The dazzling afternoon sun cast a layer of gold on his face.
The originally cold and handsome face was a little softer, and finally, it was not so extravagant. It also showed a more handsome appearance and outstanding bearing.
When they met for the first time on that fateful night, the first impression that His Highness the Grandson gave her was really not good.
Indifferent, haughty, with aloofness in his eyes looking down on all living beings, the lives of others were like ants in his eyes.
Even if he saved her life, he was careless. If she had panicked… those random arrows would not only have killed the gangsters but also her!
In such a situation, it was difficult for her to feel too grateful towards this “savior.” Later, she expressed her gratitude cautiously. She remained extremely vigilant and cautious.
In the past few days, she had heard a lot about him from Ling Jingyan and Madam Jiang respectively, and she had slightly changed her view of the Imperial Grandson.
Born in the royal family, he was born as the eldest grandson and the future heir. On the bright side, he is majestic. On the dark side, there were dangers everywhere. No one knew how many eyes were watching his every move, open or dark, waiting for his negligence and mistakes.
Growing up in such an environment, one must be deep and ruthless.
…
The Imperial Grandson was also looking at Ling Jingshu.
The two ships were very close, only a few meters apart.
She could see him clearly, and he could also see her clearly.
She lost the pale stubbornness of that night and the cautious vigilance of the day she expressed her gratitude. Her eyes, clear and watery, were now filled with a gentle smile. Under the sunlight, she radiated a stunning charm.
As soon as her eyes touched his, she restrained her smile and quickly turned her head aside.
…The Imperial Grandson hummed softly in his heart.
What did she mean? Didn’t want to see him? He was not as good as she wished!
“Wang Tong,” the Imperial Grandson pretended to be indifferent, “this king is here alone, there is no one to speak to. Go and call Ling Ji over. “
Wang Tong replied yes.
The Imperial Grandson added casually: “Let my cousin and the others come over too! More people are more lively. “
Wang Tong: “…”
Didn’t His Royal Highness dislike noise? Today he even took the initiative to ask someone to come over to talk.
Was the sun coming out from the west?
His Highness glared over again displeased: “Hurry up! “
During this journey, His Royal Highness Taisun didn’t bring any eunuchs or palace maids with him. This resulted in the esteemed leader of the Eastern Palace guards having to run errands and convey messages. He was often criticized and nitpicked by His Royal Highness Taisun, much to his chagrin.
Thinking about it makes him sad!
…
Wang Tong sighed silently in his heart, but his movements were very neat. He quickly reached the next door on the boat and said to Ling Ji with a smile: “Ling Gōngzi, His Highness has nothing else to do, so he is inviting you to come over and talk. “
Ling Ji was a little surprised, but more flattered, and hurriedly agreed.
These days, he had to go with his father to pay his respects to His Royal Highness every day. It was a pity that His Highness was not easy to please, and he always looked cold.
Ling Dàyé was just an Assistant Commissioner of the Ministry of Works, lacking even the qualification to attend minor court gatherings. Naturally, he wasn’t noteworthy in the eyes of the Imperial Grandson. Moreover, the Imperial Grandson was accustomed to seeing flattering and fawning faces daily, which made him quite impatient. He wasn’t inclined to pay attention to the Ling family.
This time the Imperial Grandson saved the Ling family and sailed together all the way. They often saw each other, but this time, it was a little more affectionate.
“Tángxiōng, you go with tángsǎo, but Ah Xiao and I will not go.” Ling Jingshu said suddenly.
Men and women are different! Girls in boudoirs really shouldn’t show their faces in public.
Ling Ji was about to nod, but Wang Tong said with a smile: “His Royal Highness said if there are more people and it will be more lively. It’s just talking casually, Ninth Miss Ling, don’t be cautious. Let’s go together!”
Ling Ji: “… . “
Ling Jingshu was also a little surprised.
However, Wang Tong had already talked about this point, so it is inconvenient to refuse. Moreover, since she wanted to take revenge with the power of the Imperial Grandson, she would have to wait for an opportunity to get closer…
Ling Jingshu quickly restrained her thoughts, and replied with a smile: “Thank you, Commander Wang, then I will not be disrespectful.”
Ling Ji looked at her thoughtfully. The smiling Ling Jingshu glanced at her and held back her silence.
Madam Jiang’s mind was sharp, and she quickly exchanged a knowing look with her husband, smiled and took Ling Jingshu’s hand: “Ah Shu, let’s go there now so that His Royal Highness won’t have to wait long.”
Ling Jingshu responded calmly.
A group of people soon arrived in front of the Imperial Grandson.
Ling Ji was about to salute when the Imperial Grandson’s voice sounded: “We meet every day, so these customary etiquettes will be avoided.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty, Taisun!” Ling Ji was also a thoughtful person, so he did not salute again.
Since His Royal Highness wants to be approachable, they don’t have to insist on saluting. So as not to offend His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson.
The Imperial Grandson was obviously not good at chatting, and everyone didn’t dare to speak out casually. They were speechless for a while, and the scene was a bit embarrassing.
Anyway, Ling Jingshu had no intention of speaking.
Her eyes flicked across the face of the Imperial Grandson, then she lowered her head.
His Royal Highness, who had been paying attention to her every move, naturally did not miss this subtle movement, and his brows sank slightly.
