Lin Yushu stood up to salute, and just as she bent her knees slightly, someone held her arm.

"No need to be so polite, Princess Shuyi."

Generally, when a superior greets a subordinate, they just give him a false support, and there is never any physical contact.

The second prince, Nan Heying, actually reached out and held Lin Yushu's arm, which was obviously intentional.

Lin Yushu frowned slightly, took a half step back calmly and pulled her arm away.

Nan Heying didn't argue and just laughed heartily.

"In the previous incident, Princess Shuyi was kind to me. If you need anything, I will satisfy you as long as I can help."

Lin Yushu sneered in her heart, I want Nan Huaishuo’s life, can you give it to me?

"Your Highness, the Second Prince is very polite. Your Highness has already satisfied my daughter's wishes by coming to the opening day of Shuyue Pavilion."

It seems that Cheng Ru has been discovered by Nan Heying. How long can Nan Huaishuo, who is hiding behind him, hide?

"It's just some silver, not worth mentioning. The county lady helped this prince to remove a nail, and this favor must be repaid. You don't have to be polite. Just tell me what you want, even... even if it's the position of this prince's concubine..."

Nan Heying thought that no woman could refuse his position as concubine.

He is now the prince with the greatest hope of succeeding to the throne. His concubine will be the noble concubine or even the imperial concubine in the future. If Lin Yushu's father and brother work hard, she may become the queen with her intelligence and beauty.

Moreover, Lin Yushu had previously taken the initiative to remind him that there was a spy around him. Doesn’t that mean she has feelings for him?

Nan Heying didn't believe she would refuse.

Nan Shuning, who had been standing behind Lin Yushu with her ears perked up and pretending to drink tea, could no longer sit still when she heard this.

"Second cousin, His Majesty has promised Princess Shuyi that her marriage must be arranged by His Majesty."

Nan Heying frowned when he heard this. In the battle of Xiangyuanshan, Lin Mingyue and his son made great achievements, and Lin Yushu's status also rose.

In addition, both Emperor Ming and the Empress Dowager treated her well, so it would not be easy to ask Emperor Ming to appoint Lin Yushu as his concubine.

Lin Yushu lowered her head and chuckled. Before her father and brother had made great achievements, she was not even worthy of the position of concubine in Nan Heying's eyes.

And now that Lin Yushu is the principal wife, she has the right to be picky.

"Princess Ning'an is worrying too much. The Second Prince was just joking. How could he let me be a concubine?"

Nan Heying narrowed her eyes. She didn't expect Lin Yushu to have such a big appetite. What she meant was that she would not marry unless she was the principal wife.

But Nan Heying already has a wife, and her family is quite powerful, so they must not be offended easily.

Nan Heying gritted her teeth and cursed Lin Yushu for not knowing how to appreciate her. How could the other princes' wives compare to his concubines? !

Humph, in that case, don’t blame him for being ruthless.

Nan Heying turned and left, but he was determined to win Lin Yushu.

Not to mention that she had the ability to know that there were spies around him, just looking at her father and brother's current military achievements, no prince would not be concerned about them.

During the reign of Emperor Ming, Lin Mingyue was definitely the first and most likely the only general who held real power.

Since she is so conceited, then ruin her reputation and force her to marry him, Nan Heying!

Lin Yushu did not miss the viciousness and calculation in Nan Heying's eyes. She sighed in her heart. As Nan Rongjing had expected, tonight was destined to be restless.

Before Lin Yushu could breathe a sigh of relief, another figure approached.

"Did Second Brother offend Princess Shuyi? I'll apologize to the Princess on his behalf."

Nan Huaishuo was dressed in a dark green gold brocade robe and had a warm smile, looking like a gentle and elegant young man.

Unfortunately, Lin Yushu felt more disgusted when she saw him than when she saw the fat and big-eared Nan Heying.

"Meet His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince."

"There is no need to be polite between you and me."

You and me? Lin Yushu sneered in her heart. He really knows how to get close to her.

"I think the jadeite and pearl half bracelet on the county lady's hand is very unique. I just happened to have a similar jade bracelet. Why not give it to the county lady? Only the county lady's beauty can live up to this jade bracelet."

As he spoke, Nan Rongjing took out a jade pearl half bracelet from his arms. The style was very similar to the one on Lin Yushu's hand.

But Lin Yushu's bracelet was bought at a stall in the night market, while the bracelet in Nan Huaishuo's hand was of top quality in both texture and workmanship, and was definitely worth a lot of money.

Unfortunately, Lin Yushu doesn't like it.

"Your Highness the Fifth Prince, please forgive me for making fun of you. I only wear this jade bracelet for fun. How dare I trouble Your Highness to give it to me? Besides, there are all kinds of good things in Shuyue Pavilion. If I wear your bracelet, people who don't know will think that there are no good bracelets in Shuyue Pavilion. It will also damage Your Highness's reputation..."

How could he not know whether it was Nan Huaishuo's reputation or Lin Yushu's reputation that was damaged?

Nan Huaishuo put away the jade bracelet, his face showing no anger after being rejected. Instead, he was much calmer and more sophisticated than the Second Prince.

"The county lady is right. I didn't think enough."

"I've heard that the county lady is an excellent doctor. I've been having a headache lately. Could you please take my pulse?"

"The best winter scenery in the first month of the year is in the Western Hills outside Beijing. If the county lady is free, I would like to accompany her to enjoy it."

"The county lady is beautiful, but her body is still too weak. She must take more supplements on a daily basis and always bring a hand warmer when she goes out..."

……

Lin Yushu underestimated Nan Huaishu's perseverance. No matter how Lin Yushu refused, he just kept nagging and cared about Lin Yushu in every possible way.

One has to admit that such a gentle prince, giving gifts and showing concern for a girl, can easily move the girl's heart.

Nan Rongjing, who was sitting alone not far away, was looking at Nan Huaishuo with a sinister look on his face, trying hard to suppress the urge to smash his smiling face with a punch.

The weak prince turned to look at Nan Rongjing and smiled softly.

"Why, Rong Jing, are you also attracted to that Princess Shuyi?"

Ever since he was frightened by the sight of Lin Yushu's face half covered with pimples, he could no longer look directly at her face, even though Lin Yushu was extremely beautiful.

Today, Nan Huaishuo was ostensibly following the orders of the crown prince to approach Lin Yushu, but in fact he was hinting to the crown prince that as long as he could win over Lin Mingyue, the crown prince would surely regain his power.

Nan Rongjing's cold eyes swept across the prince's sickly pale face.

"Your Highness, if you are in the mood to care about me, you might as well care about your dog and see if he will bite you one day."

The sneer on the prince's face disappeared instantly, and he looked at Nan Rongjing sinisterly.

"Of course, the owner knows best what his dog is like. Rong Jing, your plan of sowing discord is not very clever."

After saying this, his eyes swept towards Nan Huaishuo who was showing his courtesy in the distance. Over the years, it was not that no one had tried to sow discord between the prince and Nan Huaishuo.

Although the prince is sickly, he is not stupid. During all these years that Nan Huaishuo has been under his nose, he has never completely relaxed his control over him.

It was common to give him warnings every now and then and to send his trusted men to follow him.

And for all this time, the prince had never found any problems with Nan Huaishuo, so the prince is so confident in using him now.

Nan Rongjing sneered as if he had heard a joke.
