"Look at what my sister said. As long as my sister is alive, I am naturally happy as a younger sister." Liu Jingshu said and started to cry.

"Oh, my sister's words really moved me to tears."

Liu Yaoyao blinked her eyes and said in an exaggerated tone, "Since my sister is so happy that I'm alive, we should celebrate even more."

Liu Jingshu suddenly cried even louder, as if she wanted to cry out all her grievances.

"Sister, do you know how much mother misses you? She calls your name every day at home, looking forward to your return!"

Seeing this, Ling Jinhan hurried forward to comfort Liu Jingshu, while still trying to console her.

"You two sisters are both in the capital, isn't that better? Then you can bring Auntie over, and the whole family will be together, how wonderful it is."

However, he secretly laughed in his heart: I have heard of this lady, she is a difficult person, she likes to make trouble for this person. If she is really brought to the capital, it will be lively, hehe.

Leng Ji stared at Ling Chenyu with a sad face. He had a thousand words in his heart that he wanted to say, but he didn't know where to start.

He could only look at Ling Chenyu and Liu Yaoyao silently, his eyes filled with complicated emotions.

Doctor Xiao looked at Liu Jingshu and Ling Jinhan who were almost hugging each other, and his face looked very ugly.

He wanted to step forward to stop it, but he was worried that any movement would cause even bigger trouble, so he could only force himself to stay still.

Liu Yaoyao and Ling Chenyu stood quietly by, watching Liu Jingshu and Ling Jinhan's performance without saying a word.

They all knew in their hearts that this scene was just performed by Liu Jingshu and Ling Jinhan for some purpose and it was not worth them investing too much emotion in it.

Leng Ying noticed Leng Ji's expression, and he sighed silently in his heart: People who betray others are hateful after all.

It took a long time for the onlookers to slowly understand this "drama".

They were whispering to each other, talking a lot, and sounds of admiration were heard one after another.

Liu Jingshu stood aside, feeling secretly proud.

She wanted to deliberately lead these people to criticize Liu Yaoyao so that her reputation in the capital would be ruined.

She listened to the discussions as if she heard the most beautiful music, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Oh my, that Princess Chen is actually an unfilial daughter!"

"This is really surprising! I thought she was such a nice person."

"Humph, looking at her usual condescending attitude, it turns out she is an unfilial person! How disappointing."

These discussions were like sharp knives, stabbing Liu Yaoyao.

She stood there, listening with a blank expression, but her heart was surging.

These people did not know the truth. They were just misled by Liu Jingshu's words and had such a big misunderstanding about her.

Liu Yaoyao had no intention of explaining or defending herself.

In this world, there will always be people who will deliberately discredit you, and no matter what you do, they will find an excuse to attack you.

Instead of wasting time explaining, it is better to prove your innocence with actions.

Ling Chenyu was standing next to Liu Yaoyao, so he naturally heard the discussions as well.

He did not show any dissatisfaction or anger, but instead looked at Liu Yaoyao calmly.

He knew that Liu Yaoyao was a smart woman and she had her own ways to deal with the situation.

Liu Jingshu watched Liu Yaoyao's calm and composed appearance, and the dissatisfaction in her heart was like a raging fire, burning more and more vigorously.

She was so angry that her teeth were itching. She felt that Liu Yaoyao was like a stubborn stone that would not budge no matter how hard she hit her.

She recalled that Liu Yaoyao was always the timid little lamb who allowed herself to be manipulated by them.

At that time, Liu Yaoyao would never refute anything and always followed their arrangements obediently.

But now Liu Yaoyao has become so tough, as if she has become a different person overnight.

Liu Jingshu couldn't help but feel a surge of jealousy in her heart. She really hated the current Liu Yaoyao.

Just then, there was a burst of discussion among the crowd.

It turned out that some people began to spread the news about Liu Yaoyao's great achievements in building canals in Nanyang and planting sweet potatoes and potatoes all over Nanyang.

These deeds spread quickly among the crowd like a spring breeze, and the people's curses gradually turned into praise.

Liu Jingshu's face became more and more ugly. She didn't expect that Liu Yaoyao had such an achievement.

These deeds not only made the people look at Liu Yaoyao with admiration, but also made her plans completely fail.

She originally wanted to use the people's curses to discredit Liu Yaoyao, but now it has backfired and made Liu Yaoyao's reputation even more famous.

Ling Jinhan watched the farce and tried to smooth things over by saying, "Ninth brother, ninth sister-in-law, I have set up a banquet in the reception building and am waiting for you two to arrive. Why don't we go there and reminisce about the past?"

Liu Yaoyao smiled faintly when she heard this. Was Ling Jinhan trying to give her a way out? She nodded and motioned Ling Chenyu to go to the reception building together.

Ling Chenyu looked at Liu Yaoyao, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

He knew that his wife was a smart woman who not only possessed extraordinary wisdom but also firm beliefs.

Sure enough, no matter what difficulties she encountered, Liu Yaoyao was able to deal with them calmly and turn danger into safety.

The two of them walked out of the crowd hand in hand, leaving Liu Jingshu and Ling Jinhan standing there looking at each other in bewilderment.

Liu Jingshu's face was still ugly, but Ling Jinhan dragged her towards the reception building regardless.

After they left, the crowd retreated like the tide, leaving behind two tall and graceful men who stood out like a crane among chickens.

"Do you think Father will reuse him?"

The man in bright yellow clothes was none other than the current crown prince Ling Muxiao. He tilted his head slightly, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes, and asked the counselor Xie Zhiqian beside him.

Xie Zhiqian was a shrewd and capable man. As soon as he heard the prince's words, he knew he was talking about the popular Prince Chen, Ling Chenyu.

His heart was moved, but his face remained calm, and he replied calmly: "No, I was afraid before, and now I will be even more afraid."

Hearing this, Ling Muxiao sneered, "Yes, he returned to Beijing without going to the palace to pay respect to the emperor first. This is giving the emperor a handle."

There was a hint of pride in his words, as if he had already seen the outcome of Ling Chenyu's downfall.

Xie Zhiqian nodded, but thought to himself: Prince Chen’s return to Beijing this time was indeed somewhat unexpected.

Not only did he bring back Princess Chen, he also demonstrated amazing strength and wisdom.

How could the prince trust such a person?

Although the two had their own ulterior motives, they maintained a harmonious atmosphere on the surface.

As they walked, they discussed the affairs of the court in low voices, as if everything was under their control.

However, they ignore one fact: nothing is absolute in this world.

They thought they had everything under control, but they didn't expect that the wheel of fate had begun to turn slowly and a bigger storm was about to sweep in.
