The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

Lu Zhaoling held his forehead with his hand, feeling a little headache.

"Is there any way to send him a message? I'll go to the palace gate and wait for him. I won't delay him for long."

Just let her rub it and take a few puffs.

In a way, he owed her.

If she hadn't entered the palace yesterday to save him and saved the retired emperor's life, why would she be so weak now?

Qingyin and Qingbao looked at each other.

The two maids were very curious and didn't know why Lu Zhaoling had to see the prince at this time.

But they didn't dare to ask.

"There must be a way in the palace." Even if the prince entered the palace, the palace would definitely be able to send a message in.

"Qingyin, go find someone in the palace to pass on the message. Qingbao and I will get ready and wait at the palace gate."

"Yes."

Qingyin didn't dare to delay and hurried back to Prince Jin's Mansion.

Qingbao wanted to get a cloak for Lu Zhaoling because she was injured and was going out in case of strong wind.

But as soon as the thought came to her mind, she remembered that her young lady was extremely poor. Apart from the silver she had just picked up today, she only had the ill-fitting clothes she was wearing and three sets of patched old clothes in the bag that the prince had helped pick up.

Qingbao was completely sad.

Who understands? Her daughter is so miserable!

Lu Zhaoling didn't notice the maid's sadness. She wrapped up the root carving again and held it herself.

"Let's go."

"Miss, let me take it." How could Qingbao let her hold the carving herself, so he reached out to take it.

Lu Zhaoling avoided it.

"It's not safe for you to hold."

She held the sculpture and went outside.

Qingbao was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed.

To get to the palace, walking alone is not enough.

Even though Lu Zhaoling could once control the wind and no car could catch up with her, now she is just a weakling.

When the butler heard that she wanted a carriage, he looked embarrassed.

"Second Miss, there are no spare carriages at home."

Qing Bao was angry, "No carriage?"

Lu Ming was, after all, an official in the Department of Guests and Guests of the Ministry of Rites, and he lived in a big house. Judging from the clothes and jewellery worn by the women of the Lu family, they were not poor at all. How could he say that he didn't have a carriage?

"The master has entered the palace and used a carriage. There is another carriage for the lady, who has made appointments with the ladies of other families and is about to go out. There is another carriage used by the eldest daughter."

So, isn’t it still there?

The eldest lady’s carriage also belongs to the Lu Mansion.

Their young lady is also from the Lu family.

Qingbao suppressed his anger and decided to speak nicely.

"Then send our young lady off first. We won't be leaving the city, so it won't take long."

If Lu Zhaoyun doesn't go out, it wouldn't be a big deal to borrow the carriage, right?

The housekeeper's eyes flickered and he called a servant, "Go ask the eldest lady and tell her that the second lady wants to borrow a carriage."

The servant glanced at Lu Zhaoling with contempt and left quickly.

In the blink of an eye, he came back again, without even looking at Lu Zhaoling, and said casually, "Butler, the eldest lady said that she might need the carriage later, so it cannot be borrowed."

The butler looked at Lu Zhaoling and gave her an apologetic smile.

"Second Miss, the eldest lady also wants a carriage. Look, this..."

Qing Bao said angrily, "He left for such a short time, and he didn't see anyone? He didn't even ask. Is he trying to fool us?"

Hearing her angry question, the servant also had an expression of "a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water".

"Who fooled you? The carriage originally belonged to the eldest lady."

The second young lady was granted marriage to Prince Jin, but no one in the Lu family took it seriously.

This is because Madam Lu and Lu Zhaoyun seemed to have said unintentionally that the Prince of Jin should observe mourning for at least one year, and the marriage was granted so suddenly, it is very likely that when the Prince of Jin entered the palace, the Emperor had just reached his last moments. The Emperor wanted to see the Prince of Jin get married before he died, so this marriage was most likely used to appease the Emperor and let him die in peace.

As for why Lu Zhaoling was chosen, it was because she was the daughter of an official, but not noble, so she could sacrifice her reputation so easily, and she would not have to worry about family opposition if she wanted to cancel the engagement in the future.

If it were any other noble lady in the capital, who would be willing to let Prince Jin use her so easily?

Lu Zhaoling was chosen because she happened to have offended Prince Jin, and Prince Jin was too lazy to bother selecting anyone else.

So, you want to be the Princess of Jin?

Not too possible.

Everyone in the Lu family felt that this speculation was very tenable.

Lu Zhaoling will be broken off from the engagement by the Prince of Jin in the future, so how could they really treat her as the future Princess of Jin?

"you!"

Qingbao was extremely angry and took a step forward to attack.

Lu Zhaoling held her back and said, "I'm in a hurry."

So I can’t bother with them for now, I’ll deal with it when I come back.

"Miss, they are going too far!" Qing Bao's eyes turned red with anger.

"Go out first and then talk."

Lu Zhaoling glanced at the housekeeper and the servant, flicked his finger lightly, borrowed a wisp of black air from the root carving, and bounced it into the servant's body.

"Second Miss, take care."

The butler lowered his head slightly, looking very polite, but in fact, when he lowered his head, a hint of contemptuous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

See, what can she do?

Seeing Lu Zhaoling leave, the servant rolled his eyes and said, "I'll go tell the young lady that we have to be on guard against her borrowing the carriage again in the future."

"You kid, do you want to ask for a reward?" the butler scolded with a smile.

"Hey, Dad, don't expose me." It turned out that this young servant was the housekeeper's son.

Lu Zhaoling walked out of the door and headed towards the busy street ahead.

"Miss, why did the Lu family treat you like this?" Qing Bao was still angry. Besides, how was Miss going to get to the palace?

Lu Zhaoling smiled and said, "Qingbao, it's not worth getting angry over these people."

"But they bully the young lady."

"How can I be someone who is so easy to bully?" Lu Zhaoling said, "I am a very petty person, so they will be in trouble soon."

Qing Bao blinked, "Miss, can you tell fortunes?"

Otherwise, how do you know they are going to be unlucky?

Lu Zhaoling looked indifferent and said nothing more.

She will take revenge.

Qingbao will know when he comes back.

Qing Bao saw that she didn't answer, and he was very curious, but he didn't dare to ask, so he changed the subject, "But what should we do now, Miss?"

If I had known this earlier, I would have asked Qingyin to drive a carriage from the palace to pick up the young lady.

But going back and forth like this also wastes time.

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the busy street.

It is said to be lively now, but in fact it is just crowded. However, due to the funeral of the retired emperor, pedestrians and vendors on the street did not dare to make too much noise. There were no hawking sounds or acrobatics on the streets.

Lu Zhaoling stood there and looked, and saw a carriage parked outside a shop in front. At this moment, a maid was helping a lady get into the carriage.

She paused and walked over there.

"This lady."

As soon as Mrs. Wu got on the carriage, she heard a clear voice. She looked up and was stunned for a moment.
