“What Uncle said is true. Today, I was too impulsive, and my words were too audacious. Fortunately, His Highness Prince Taisun is magnanimous and didn’t hold it against me. Otherwise, I fear I would have brought trouble upon Uncle’s family today.”

Ling Jingshu took two steps forward. Protecting Ling Xiao behind him, she said apologetically: “I will definitely remember my uncle’s teachings. I will be more tolerant when encountering problems in the future, think twice before I act, and will never speak quickly again.” She had a sincere face, and her attitude of admitting her mistakes was quite sincere.

The burning anger in Uncle Ling’s chest suddenly softened a lot.

Ling Jingshu opened her mouth again with an apologetic look on her face: “Ah Xiao is young and energetic, and what he said just now were all angry words. My uncle is broad-minded, gentle, and generous, and he will definitely not argue with Ah Xiao.”

After saying that, she turned to Ling again and tugged his sleeve: “Ah Xiao, why don’t you come to uncle and accompany me quickly? Don’t say stupid things about leaving in the future. The two of us have never been to the capital and are not familiar with the place. Even if we want to leave, Uncle, how can he bear to have our siblings suffer outside?”

Ling Xiao was very obedient and immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake: “Uncle, I was wrong, don’t be angry with me.”

Uncle Ling: “…”

He finally understood His Highness Taisun’s complicated and contradictory mood at that time!

It was disrespectful to get angry and talk to a girl!

If you try to remain silent, you will get angry and get internal injuries again…

Ling Jingshu looked at Uncle Ling with her bright and clear eyes: “Uncle, from today on, Ah Xiao and I will be in the cabin. Never leave the cabin again. Never cause trouble again. Just stop being angry, okay?”

Facing such a beautiful and sincere face, how could Uncle Ling lose his temper?

“Forget it this time.” Uncle Ling waved his hands feebly: “In the future, you should be more careful in what you say and do. You don’t have to stay in the cabin all the time. Just don’t show your face in front of His Highness.”

Ling Jingshu agreed softly and together with Ling Xiao said goodbye to them and left.

After the two siblings left, Uncle Ling rubbed his swollen temples and let out a long sigh.

He originally thought that taking them to the capital was just a small matter. Who would have thought that so many things would happen before they even arrived in the capital… At this moment, Uncle Ling suddenly had a bad premonition.

He started to fear that the days of peace and stability were gone forever!

Seeing Uncle Ling’s gloomy and depressed expression, Ling Ji smiled and comforted him: “Father, you are worrying too much. If His Highness the Imperial Grandson was really angry, how could he hold it back? He must have had an attack on the spot. Since he didn’t say anything, I think His Highness is not angry.”

After a pause, he whispered: “In that case, if it was me who said that, His Highness would definitely be furious. But since it came from Ah Shu’s mouth, how could His Highness be angry?”

Any man will always be more tolerant of beautiful girls.

No matter how profound and powerful the Imperial Grandson was, he was still a teenager after all.

Uncle Ling thought for a while. He sighed again: “Things are already like this, so we can only think about the good things. Don’t tell your mother and others about what happened today, lest they worry.”

Ling Ji agreed immediately.

…

As soon as Ling Xiao entered the cabin, he asked in a low voice: “Ah Shu, you spoke like that on purpose today, right? Why did you do that?”

What happened two days ago was an unbearable counterattack. Today it was almost provocative.

Although Ling Xiao was naive, he was not stupid, and he vaguely sensed something was wrong. Ling Jingshu clearly wanted to anger the Imperial Grandson on purpose…

Ling Jingshu did not hide it from Ling Xiao this time, and nodded calmly: “Yes, I did do it on purpose.”

Ling Xiao frowned: “But, what are the benefits of doing this? “

Other than irritating the Imperial Grandson and making Uncle Ling anxious and angry, there seemed to be no obvious benefit.

Ling Jingshu’s eyes flashed slightly and she smiled with unknown meaning: “Ah Xiao, I have my own reasons for doing this.”

Her performance in the past few days must have left a very “deep” impression on His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson!

Ling Xiao was confused. After waiting for a long time, Ling Jingshu didn’t open her mouth to explain, so she couldn’t help but protest: “Ah Shu, what on earth are you going to do? And always hiding it from me!”

Frowning and looking quite unhappy.

“Ah Xiao, don’t be angry,” Ling Jingshu smiled, trying to soothe the displeased Ling Xiao with a serious expression. “I admit that I have been keeping some things from you. It’s just that the timing isn’t right yet. It’s not convenient to tell you now. When the time is right in the future, I will definitely explain everything to you in detail, okay?”

As it turned out, when Ling Jingyu asked, “Okay?” so gently, no man could resist.

Ling Xiao was no exception.

All the depression and unhappiness in his heart dissipated in Ling Jingshu’s soft words.

“You promised this with your own words,” Ling Xiao’s face regained a smile. “No backing out now.”

Finally coaxed him! Ling Jingshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She nodded in agreement with a smile.

As for when the time was right… of course it was still very early!

Young man, you are so innocent and easy to deceive!

Poor Ling Xiao didn’t realize that he was deceived by his own sister. He happily took the book and waited for Ling Jingshu to read it to him.

…

Ling Jingshu kept her promise and indeed never left the cabin again. When she had nothing to do, she read to Ling Xiao or occasionally did some needlework to pass the time, which was quite leisurely.

Uncle Ling continued to go to His Majesty the Imperial Grandson to pay his respects with great fear, secretly preparing for His Highness to fall out and settle the scores at any time. Uncle Ling was afraid that it would affect Ling Ji, so he simply went alone.

However, the expected scenario did not happen.

The Imperial Grandson still looked aloof and indifferent. He didn’t say much and didn’t get angry. He just frowned slightly when he saw that Uncle Ling came alone to pay his respects.

Uncle Ling lowered his head in fear and did not notice the fleeting look on the Imperial Grandson’s face. He was secretly glad in my heart. His Highness Taisun never mentioned what happened that day. It seemed that he did not take it to heart.

Uncle Ling finally let go of his hanging heart.

Wang Tong’s heart was in his throat.

Sure enough, as soon as Uncle Ling left, the Imperial Grandson became sullen.

Of course, the Imperial Grandson was a stern person, and only those closest to him could detect his mood from the subtle changes in his expression.

The current Imperial Grandson was obviously between “not very happy” and “very unhappy”.

The sharp-tongued Ninth Miss Ling was clearly not here, so why was His Highness the Imperial Grandson unhappy again?

“Wang Tong,” the Imperial Grandson suddenly opened his mouth and asked, “How far is it from Luoyang?”

Wang Tong did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly replied: “It will take about two days.”

The Imperial Grandson hummed.

Wang Tong waited for a long time but found that the Imperial Grandson did not continue to ask questions, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking about arriving in the capital in two days, he felt happy again.

After returning to the mansion, there were chamberlains and maids taking care of His Highness the Imperial Grandson’s food, clothing, and daily life. Finally, he no longer needed to serve as the commander of the bodyguards.
