"If the princess is satisfied, Ning Shu will not refuse." Ning Shu said without hesitation.
"You — —" Xiao Zhangping stared at her in shock and subconsciously took a step back. She had made this rude request with the intention of humiliating her and embarrassing her. But she did not expect that Ning Shu would bend her knees without hesitation.
One knee was on the ground, followed by the other knee, and then both knees were together. Her forehead was on the ground as she kowtowed for the first time.
Looking at Ning Shu's determined face with blood on her face, Xiao Zhangping's heart began to beat violently. The second kowtow sounded, followed by the third. Xiao Zhangping rushed forward and pushed Ning Shu down, "You! You! Stop kowtowing, get up! "
She looked at Ning Shu in disbelief and asked, "Where is your self-esteem, where is your pride? Thinking back to when you expressed goodwill to my sixth imperial brother on the street, you did not fake it. Why are you so cowardly now? "
The wound on Ning Shu's cheek was still oozing blood droplets. Bit by bit, they condensed into a red bean and rolled down to her lips, dyeing her slightly pale lips red. She pursed the smell of rust from the corner of her lips, not minding it.
"His Highness the Crown Prince hates being threatened the most. He once said to me: No one in this world can threaten me, not even my life. So, even if Old Princess Yu left this note, even if I know that his hopes are tied to you, I cannot force him to do something he does not want to do. But kowtowing ten times is as easy as flipping my hand for me. As for self-esteem and pride, I have them, but they are not harmful to each other, so it is not impossible to give them up. I only hope that they can alleviate the princess' grief and anger. "
Xiao Zhangping looked at her with a strange expression and said hesitantly, "Could it be that you actually — —"
Ning Shu's thick eyelashes fluttered a few times, but she did not say a word.
Xiao Zhangping, who was also in love with Xiahou Qing, was not in the mood to help Ning Shu expose the layer of paper in her heart. She looked at Ning Shu in annoyance and then looked at the bustling river bank, as if she was recalling her beautiful dream.
Xiao Zhangping, who had been in grief and anger all along, finally slowly calmed down. She sneered mischievously and said, "To tell you the truth, before you came to me, Heir Xiahou had already come to me. He told me that as long as I took it out, he would agree to help me solve the marriage problem. But he didn't want to tell me the ins and outs of the matter, so I didn't immediately agree. I only told him to think about it. "
Ning Shu, who had been hunting geese for years, had never expected to be pecked by geese. She had always fooled others, but there was also a day when she was fooled by others. Ning Shu couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. He brushed the dust off his body and walked to Xiao Zhangping's side: "Princess is witty, Ning Shu is sincerely convinced."
Xiao Zhangping looked at him and wanted to say, "You're just confused because you're too concerned." She was about to say it, but she swallowed it back. Old Princess Yu's death was still a knot in her heart that was difficult to untie. She didn't want to be close to Ning Shu like a friend.
"You win, Ning Shu. What I wanted to know is now clear, and half of the anger in my heart has dissipated. Since Heir Xiahou is willing to help me solve my problem, then I don't have any doubts or hesitation. I'll give you that thing. "She maintained a cold tone and took out a set of sleeping clothes from the box she carried with her.
"This is the sleeping clothes that Old Princess Yu prepared for me in advance. After her accident, her nanny gave it to me. At that time, I was so sad that I didn't have the heart to look at it. After you came to find me last time, I carefully looked through it and found that this set of sleeping clothes was embroidered with the plum blossom pattern you were looking for. As for the mystery behind it, that's your own business. It has nothing to do with me. "
Ning Shu took the nightgown and carefully put it away. She understood in her heart, 'No wonder there's the phrase' you can get it '. Other than the newlywed husband, who can get a girl's nightgown?' Old Princess Yu's treatment of Princess Changping could be described as' deep affection '.
Princess Changping's words were emotionless, but Ning Shu's eyes were sharp. She could clearly sense the reluctance in her expression. She thought for a moment and said, "Princess, please don't worry. When the mystery is solved, I'll definitely return it to Princess in one piece."
Xiao Zhangping rolled her eyes and got up to leave: "Who wants your fake kindness?"
Looking at this arrogant little princess who didn't act according to common sense, Ning Shu couldn't help but laugh: "Your Highness, saying one thing and thinking another is a trick that only little children like to play."
Xiao Zhangping's face turned red. She glared at Ji Yunshu with shame and indignation. She turned to the group of guards and female officials standing guard downstairs and said: "What are you all in a daze for? Return to the palace! "
