Shen Xiangjun relaxed slightly.

What Princess Changning said must be correct.

The Queen Mother would not agree to this marriage, but now it is a major funeral and the Queen Mother is too busy to take care of the matter, so this marriage will be called off sooner or later.

However, it would be best if Lu Zhaoling could give up sooner or later. After all, as long as Lu Zhaoling bears the title of "Princess of Jin", she will be uncomfortable and painful.

Why should a country girl like her be named together with the King of Jin?

"Well, Princess, to be honest, my parents know that she married the Prince of Jin, but they find it difficult to discipline her." Lu Zhaoyun said awkwardly, and tugged at Lu Zhaoling's sleeve again, "Second sister, now that the Princess is teaching you this way, you should just listen."

Lu Zhaoling hadn't said anything just now, because he wanted to take another look at the level of Princess Changning and Shen Xiangjun.

But now that she's finished watching it, she's a little disappointed.

Is this the princess of the capital and the daughter of a powerful official?

She said calmly, "I cancel the engagement? Will the King of Jin accept it? He is a great prince, but he was persuaded by a little village girl like me to cancel the engagement? What if he feels embarrassed?"

Lu Zhaoling didn't bother to say more about something that could choke them to death with just one sentence.

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of those people changed.

Princess Changning also bit her lower lip and looked at Shen Xiangjun.

This is true. The Prince of Jin has even requested the imperial decree to grant the marriage, so how could he possibly accept Lu Zhaoling's cancellation of the engagement?

Shen Xiangjun's mind flashed with the cold and handsome look of Prince Jin, and her heart ached a little.

"Then you should kneel down at the gate of Prince Jin's mansion," Princess Changning came up with an idea, "you should kneel down and plead with Prince Jin, saying that you are of humble origin, without talent or virtue, and not innocent, and that you are not worthy of him and are not worthy of being the Princess of Jin, and begging him to cancel the engagement!"

Lu Zhaoyun's eyes lit up and he immediately agreed, "My lord, this is a good idea!"

Gu Qing's face changed when he heard this.

Everyone stayed away from Lu Zhaoling, fearing that they would be implicated by her, except Gu Qing who was still standing beside her.

After hearing what the princess said, she was really afraid that Lu Zhaoling would foolishly agree, so she immediately reached out from behind and poked her, while giving her a wink.

You can't agree to that!

If she really did that and said that, her reputation would be ruined and it would spread all over the capital!

But Lu Zhaoling didn't look at her, which made Gu Qing's almond-shaped eyes almost cramp from blinking.

She was extremely anxious.

"How did you hear that I am not innocent?" Lu Zhaoling smiled. "I am a little bit not innocent, because I rode in the same carriage with the Prince of Jin, and I even hugged him. Is this the kind of not innocent you are talking about?"

Shen Xiangjun pinched her palm with her fingers. Jealousy crept into her heart, making her feel painful and numb.

She and the King of Jin had hugged each other! They had hugged each other!

The others also widened their eyes, unable to believe what they heard.

However, how could Lu Zhaoling be so shameless to say such things!

Gu Qing also stared at Lu Zhaoling blankly. Oh my god, this sister is really fierce.

"Second sister, how can you say such things! Even if you don't mind being ashamed, you should at least consider the Lu family's reputation!" Lu Zhaoyun shouted.

Lu Zhaoling spread his hands and said, "I am telling the truth. So, if Prince Jin is not a scumbag, does he have to be responsible to me?"

Scumbag...

"You're talking nonsense! Prince Jin would never do such a thing!" Shen Xiangjun couldn't help it and retorted coldly.

Prince Jin was so cold to her and never touched even a corner of her clothes, so how could he possibly hug Lu Zhaoling?

"Many people on the street saw it that day. Didn't you ask around?" Lu Zhaoling raised an eyebrow. "The purpose of your gathering today is to interfere in the marriage of Prince Jin? Are all of you here the elders of Prince Jin? Are you so anxious to disown the Emperor's imperial decree granting marriage?"

hiss.

The faces of all the daughters changed.

Lu Zhaoling dared to say anything, they had just experienced it! They had originally wanted to watch the show, but now Lu Zhaoling had dragged them all into it with just one sentence, how could they dare to admit it!

They were accused of interfering in Prince Jin's marriage and disobeying the imperial decree. If this got out, would Prince Jin spare them?

So, they all hurried to distance themselves from the matter.

"We didn't say anything!"

"Who doesn't recognize the imperial edict? Don't talk nonsense!"

Princess Changning was furious and wanted to say more, but Shen Xiangjun grabbed her hand and signaled her not to say anything more.

She and the princess have the highest status here. If these things really spread out, Prince Jin would definitely think that they were the ones manipulating and interfering in his marriage.

The King of Jin will indeed be furious.

It would be disadvantageous to her if she continued to make trouble.

Shen Xiangjun stopped her from speaking, and Princess Changning could only suppress her anger and take a deep breath.

"Today, I called you here to copy the scriptures together. I will send them to the palace and present them to the Queen Mother. This is also our sincere devotion to the Emperor and the Great Zhou. So everyone must copy the scriptures carefully today!"

The original plan was not to force Lu Zhaoling in person, but who knew that she would make me so angry that I almost lost my composure.

Princess Changning hated Lu Zhaoling even more.

The daughters did not dare to say anything more about the matter. They all agreed and dispersed to prepare.

Princess Changning looked around, "Where's Lianxin?"

Lu Zhaoyun opened his mouth and said, "Princess, Sister He was feeling unwell just now, so she went back first."

The servants in the Princess's Mansion had not yet had time to tell her about this.

Lu Zhaoyun also knew that it was inappropriate to talk about He Lianxin now. Did he want to force the princess to continue arguing with Lu Zhaoling?

Now that Lu Zhaoling has brought out Prince Jin, she has indeed put them above her!

After all, Princess Changning has to call Prince Jin uncle!

Let’s talk about He Lianxin after it’s over.

"Zhaohua, take Zhaoling to look around first. There are scriptures over there. Pick one and copy it carefully later!" Lu Zhaoyun said to Lu Zhaohua.

Lu Zhaohua really didn't want to be too close to Lu Zhaoling, but he didn't dare to disobey her, so he had to agree.

"I get a headache just seeing you! Go over there and don't come hanging around in front of me!" Princess Changning pointed to the lake and motioned Lu Zhaohua to take her there.

"Second sister, let's go this way." Lu Zhaohua looked at Lu Zhaoling with a pleading look.

Lu Zhaoling looked towards the lake and did not object.

She walked towards that direction first, "I'll go by myself, you don't have to follow me."

Lu Zhaohua was overjoyed. "Second sister, I'll go pick out the scriptures first, and I'll help you grind the ink later!"

She had a vague feeling that something was waiting for Lu Zhaoling, and if she stayed with her, she might be implicated, so she decided not to go.

Princess Changning and the others saw that Lu Zhaoling was indeed walking towards the lake, so they exchanged glances and ignored her.

They really need to copy the scriptures, and cannot rely entirely on Lu Zhaoling.

The daughters all began to spread out papers and asked their maids to grind ink in preparation for copying scriptures.

Lu Zhaoling walked alone along the path beside the rockery and headed towards the lake.
