The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 355: have fun
Chapter 355 Enjoy Yourself
It all depends on whether the emperor will listen to Lu Ninghua.
“How did your grandfather treat the man who used the Xiliang aphrodisiac?” the eldest princess asked in a low voice.
“After my grandfather gave the man acupuncture, he warned him not to use this aphrodisiac again, otherwise his foundation would be drained in the future, and he would suffer not only a headache but also his life would be in danger.” Lu Ninghua answered truthfully.
The eldest princess began to count the Buddhist beads again, her eyes were deep and no one knew what she was thinking.
“If this medicine is taken for a long time, how long will it take… before it becomes fatal?” The eldest princess suddenly asked, still with that kind and peaceful look on her face.
Bai Qingyan looked up at the Grand Princess, wondering what the Grand Princess meant by suddenly asking this question?
Lu Ninghua was also stunned.
“That depends on whether you use it every day.” Lu Ninghua calmed down and spoke calmly, “If you use it every day, you will die within half a year! If you use it two or three times a month… your body will be hollowed out within five years.”
“Oh…” The eldest princess responded. She didn’t know what she was thinking about, but her eyes suddenly turned red. She paused while twirling the Buddhist beads, looked at Lu Ninghua, and tried her best to straighten her back. She said solemnly, “Your Majesty has been working hard for state affairs. When you meet a noble lady you like, Qiu, it is only natural for you to indulge yourself a little in your spare time. I wonder if Ninghua can help… let your Majesty enjoy himself to the fullest without being bothered by a headache?”
Grandma, are you trying to kill His Majesty?
Bai Qingyan didn’t believe it… But after a moment, his grandmother changed her mind and decided not to protect the current emperor. Instead, she wanted to kill her nephew.
Lu Ninghua tightened her grip. If the emperor died… then she wouldn’t have to worry about having to endure the disgust of serving the emperor as a substitute one day.
“Ning Hua, I will do my best!” Lu Ning Hua solemnly promised.
The eldest princess’ eyes were filled with sorrow: “Thank you for your hard work…”
Knowing that Bai Qingyan and the Grand Princess must have something to say, Lu Ninghua bowed and left with Nanny Jiang.
The eldest princess relaxed her straight back slightly, leaning against the pillow, revealing her tired old look, and slowly spoke: “The older the current emperor gets, the more suspicious he becomes. In history… there are many cases of emperors becoming foolish and making mistakes in their later years! Rather than letting the current emperor sit on the dragon throne and be suspicious of the Bai family all day long, it is better to support the crown prince. The crown prince… now trusts you and has promised me that he will keep the Bai family safe.”
Before she went to Southern Xinjiang, her grandmother had a long talk with the prince. It was probably at that time… the prince promised her grandmother that he would keep the Bai family safe!
She lowered her eyes and said nothing.
The Lin family members are all the same at heart. Even the current crown prince… only appears to be more tolerant than the emperor because he has not yet ascended to the supreme throne and needs to win the hearts of the people.
If the crown prince succeeds to the throne, it will be the same…
Just like when the current emperor was just named the crown prince, he said those words to his grandfather in order to consolidate his position, but the emperor forgot them after he ascended the throne.
During the trip to Southern Xinjiang, Bai Qingyan had seen through the prince and no longer had any expectations for him.
But she didn’t want to refute her grandmother anymore. Five years should be enough for the Bai family.
“Just let grandma arrange it.” Bai Qingyan nodded.
“Yes!” The eldest princess nodded, looking at her granddaughter who was no longer as affectionate in front of her as before. She closed her eyes and thought of Bai Qingyan’s words in the mourning hall when he kowtowed to her and broke off the ties with her, saying that if she didn’t, she would suffer the consequences.
Even though blood ties cannot be severed, her granddaughter and she have already become estranged.
The eldest princess really didn’t expect that she would almost live a happy and peaceful life after marrying Bai Weiting, but she didn’t expect that she would become a lonely person in her later years.
The eldest princess sighed deeply and ordered, “Abao, go back and rest. Grandmother is also tired.”
She stood up to say goodbye, and after coming out of the upper room, she faintly heard her grandmother’s choking sobs, but she did not turn around, but just walked out of the Changshou Courtyard with her eyes lowered.
Her husband, son, and grandson all died in southern Xinjiang. As a wife, mother, and grandmother, of course she hated them, but as the eldest princess she had no choice but to maintain the Lin family’s imperial power.
She guessed that her grandmother probably wanted to use the emperor’s death to appease the hatred in her heart.
In this way, the imperial power of the Great Jin Dynasty is still in the hands of their Lin family, and she can vent her hatred and heal her inner wounds.
The eldest princess is the legitimate daughter of the late emperor and the late queen. What she cares about is not the current emperor, but… the Lin family’s imperial power.
No matter who sits in the position of the Grand Princess and the grandmother of the Bai family, it will be difficult.
But who doesn’t have difficulties in this world? My grandmother made a choice. She chose the imperial power of the Yilin family, which meant that her future was destined to go in the opposite direction from hers.
Bai Qingyan came out of Changshouyuan and saw Lu Ninghua outside the Changshouyuan, seemingly waiting for her. Seeing her come out, Lu Ninghua stepped forward and saluted Bai Qingyan: “Miss!”
“Aunt.” Bai Qingyan lowered her eyes and returned the greeting.
“I stayed here specifically because I wanted to take a walk with the young lady.” Lu Ninghua said with a smile.
Bai Qingyan nodded and walked forward with Lu Ninghua.
“Although Ning Hua is the adopted daughter of the Grand Princess in name, she knows that she is just a commoner.” Lu Ning Hua’s clear and smooth voice slowly and peacefully said, “But the Grand Princess has done Ning Hua a favor. Some of the words I said in front of the young lady may be offensive. I hope the young lady will forgive me.”
“Aunt, if you have anything to say, please feel free to tell me directly.” Bai Qing said in a calm tone.
“Ning Hua doesn’t know what happened between the eldest princess and the eldest girl, but the eldest princess really loves the eldest girl. The most frightening thing in life is that the parents are no longer around. Ning Hua has experienced this, so I dare to advise the eldest girl. No matter what the future holds, since the elders who love the eldest girl are still here, the eldest girl should not leave herself with any regrets.”
After Lu Ninghua finished speaking, she bowed solemnly to Bai Qingyan and said, “Ninghua said too much, please don’t blame me, young lady.”
“I’ll remember what you said, aunt!” Bai Qingyan didn’t mind.
“If the young lady has no other instructions, Ning Hua will leave.” Lu Ning Hua said with her eyes lowered.
Bai Qingyan nodded.
Seeing Lu Ninghua walking away, Chuntao stepped forward and followed Bai Qingyan, laughing softly, “From the back, this Miss Lu does look a bit like you.”
It’s not that she looks like her, it’s that she looks like Aunt Suqiu.
Bai Qingyan looked at Lu Ninghua’s back, and his hands hidden in his sleeves tightened slightly.
Yes, since her grandmother who loved her was still alive, why should she worry about a different future direction?
She turned her head and glanced in the direction of Changshouyuan, and told Chuntao, “Tell the kitchen to make some soft snacks for grandma later.”
She could no longer communicate with her grandmother and send her snacks as she used to…but this was also her way of showing her gratitude to her elders.
Bai Qingyan felt like he had a thorn in his throat because of what the Grand Princess had done to Ji Tingyu, and he couldn’t ignore it or care about it.
