The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Princess Lin pursed her lips and frowned slightly: "Mother, what you mean is..."

The second wife shook her head gently and sighed: "There is another kind of people who usually do things silently without saying a word. But when the critical moment comes, they really act. There are not many such people, even very few, but if you really have such people around you, you should cherish them."

She paused, her eyes becoming more profound. "It's the same between brothers and sisters, and it's the same with servants. Tell me, which master doesn't want the second kind of people around him? But when this kind of people appear, everyone feels uncomfortable, pointing fingers and talking about them. Why? Because the pain didn't fall on them, so they don't feel it."

Princess Lin was startled when she heard this, her eyes flickering slightly, as if she was thinking about what the Second Madam said.

The Second Lady continued, "You have been the Princess of Lin for a long time, so you should know that these words are not alarmist. You may think that Ruoxuan's behavior is too sharp, but think about it from Wang Yanqing's perspective. If she had other choices, who would be willing to hold on to the only person who could help her on the verge of life and death? What about you?"

Princess Lin slowly raised her head with a complicated expression, and murmured, "If it were me... I would probably also hope that someone would be willing to do anything for me."

The Second Madam smiled gently, her tone more loving: "So, stand at a higher position to see people's hearts. You may not completely agree with Ruoxuan's approach, but don't easily deny her sincerity. People talk about her only because the slap didn't hit her. But once they put themselves in her shoes, they may envy her courage."

Princess Lin's lowered eyebrows gradually showed a hint of understanding, and the original coldness on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by a bit of seriousness: "Mother, you are right. I did misunderstand my sister-in-law before... She is indeed a person of true temperament."

The second wife smiled with satisfaction: "That's right. In the future, she may be a good helper in family affairs."

Princess Lin took a deep breath and nodded gently: "I understand, mother."

After the polo match, Princess Lin recalled her mother's words, and Lin Ruoxuan's face appeared in her mind.

She pondered for a moment, then instructed the personal nanny beside her: "Go to the storehouse to get some of the best medicinal herbs, and also two bottles of the best tranquilizing incense, and send them to the main courtyard. Just say that I thought that my sister-in-law had been frightened before, and needs to take good care of herself."

The nanny was stunned for a moment, then responded cheerfully, "Yes, Princess, I will arrange it right away."

In the main room of the Gu family, Lin Ruoxuan was chatting with Hongya and Luqiao.

Although she has not gone out since Wang Yanqing's incident, her spirits have gradually recovered.

Hongya walked in quickly from outside the door holding a mahogany box, with surprise on her face: "Madam, Princess Lin's people sent medicinal herbs over, saying that Princess Lin prepared them specially for you."

Lin Ruoxuan put down the embroidery in her hand and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Princess Lin gave it to me? And she gave it to me specially?"

Hong Ya nodded and said as she opened the wooden box, "Look, Madam, these are all extremely precious medicinal herbs, as well as tranquilizing incense. Princess Lin really put a lot of effort into this."

Lin Ruoxuan looked at the things in the box, surprise flashing across her face: "What is Princess Lin doing now?"

Lu Qiao agreed with a smile: "Madam, Princess Lin really spent a lot of money this time. Look, these things cost at least a hundred taels of silver!"

Lin Ruoxuan shook her head gently, her tone indifferent: "It's not about the money. No matter what, I accept this favor."

Lin.

"Ruoqiao," Madam Lin looked up at Lin Ruoqiao who was sitting beside her, her tone somewhat uneasy, "I'm still worried about you, Ruoxuan. The Gu family is a big family with many rules. She made such a big fuss for Wang Yanqing before, the elders of the Gu family are afraid that she will be punished."

Lin Ruoqiao was holding a cup of hot tea. After hearing this, she immediately sat up straight and said seriously, "Mom, Ruoxuan has a strong temper. You are right to worry that she will be bullied in the Gu family. But the prince is not unreasonable. I believe he will not let Ruoxuan suffer."

Madam Lin sighed softly, her tone becoming more worried: "That being said, the rules of the Gu family come first. Ruoxuan, as the wife of the Crown Prince, has come forward to stir up trouble, so she will inevitably be watched by Princess Lin and the others. Not to mention the old lady and the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, both of whom are not easy to deal with. What if..."

Her voice choked for a moment, and then she added in a low voice: "If she was punished or even beaten, she would have to bear it by herself. She would never take the initiative to speak to us."

Seeing her mother getting more and more worried, Lin Ruoqiao hurriedly spoke to comfort her: "Mom, since you are so worried, I will go to Gu's house to see Ruoxuan. It just so happens that Ruoxuan and I agreed a while ago to go and talk to her."

After hearing this, Madam Lin showed a look of relief and patted her hand gently: "That's good, go check on her and persuade her to stay in the Gu family and not cause trouble again."

The next morning, Lin Ruoqiao found Lin Ruoxue to discuss, "Big sister, mother is worried about Ruoxuan, I want to go to Gu's house to check on her. Can you come with me? Ruoxuan will be happier with you around."

Lin Ruoxue smiled slightly after hearing this and nodded, "That's right, I want to see Ruoxuan too. She usually likes to pretend not to say anything, but this time, the incident has caused quite a stir, and there's no guarantee that she won't be blamed. We sisters can go see her and feel more at ease."

So, the two of them prepared gifts and drove to the Gu family's main house together.

Lin Ruoxuan was leaning on the couch looking at the account book. When she heard the maid announce that Lin Ruoxue and Lin Ruoqiao were coming, she quickly put down the account book and stood up to greet them.

"Ruoxuan!" As soon as Lin Ruoqiao saw Lin Ruoxuan, she immediately ran up to her, grabbed her hand, and looked her up and down, her eyes full of worry, "You were frightened a while ago, are you feeling better now? Have you taken any medicine to recuperate?"

Seeing her eyes slightly red, Lin Ruoxuan felt warm in her heart and patted her hands with a smile: "Seventh sister, I'm fine, I just need to rest for a few days. Why are you here? Is mother worried about me?"

Lin Ruoxue smiled gently and said softly: "Of course mother is worried about you. After all, you have done such a big thing, and the Gu family is a large family, so it is inevitable that there will be some strict rules. We came to take a look, so that mother doesn't have to worry about you all day long."

Lin Ruoxuan was slightly startled when she heard this, then her smile deepened: "Don't worry, no one in the Gu family has made things difficult for me these days, and Nanyuan has also protected me. Although my mother-in-law looks strict, she has always been tolerant of me. You can go back and tell mother that I am living well in the Gu family."

Lin Ruoqiao was still worried, so she asked again carefully: "Is it true that no one bothered you? Those messy discussions didn't affect you?"

Lin Ruoxuan shook her head and said with a smile: "Big sister, you guys came at the right time today. If there really is trouble, you will naturally find out after staying for a day."
