Quick travel: after being possessed by the monster system

Chapter 405 The Femme Fatale Guide to the Powerful Regent 11

The emerald green color looks like precious jade under the sunlight.

Although the palace maid who came in to report was used to it, she still couldn't help but shudder in her heart when she saw those narrow, sharp eyes like black gems.

The palace maid restrained her trembling legs and prevented herself from making any unseemly behavior.

"Let them in."

When Shu Xinglan and the others were led in by the palace maid, they saw Lin Qing sitting above them with a doting smile on their lips.

His eyes fell on her wrist.

One hand gently stroked the jade-like bracelet on her wrist.

"See Her Royal Highness."

The three of them bowed their heads and bowed to Lin Qing as usual.

"Your Highness, is this your new jade bracelet? This green color is so beautiful." Shu Xingruo stepped forward and wanted to praise Lin Qing's jade bracelet.

But just got closer.

The jade bracelet is like a living thing.

Moved.

Then under Shu Xingruo's frightened gaze, those cold vertical pupils stared at Shu Xingruo.

The head that was originally close to Lin Qing's wrist slowly stretched out.

He spat out snake cores at Shu Xingruo and the others.

Shu Xingruo took a few steps back in fright. It wasn't until he held his brother's arm that the timidity in his heart subsided a bit.

But my calves were still shaking badly.

After Shu Xinglan saw the green snake on Lin Qing's wrist, he immediately looked at Lu Xiyue on the left with worried eyes.

Xiyue has always been weak and afraid of those snakes, insects, rats, and ants. How scared she must be at this moment.

When he was in front of the palace gate, he shouldn't have agreed to Xiyue coming with him.

Shu Xinglan didn't think about it at all at this time. His sister was even more scared at this time, and all his thoughts were focused on his sweetheart.

Lu Xiyue bit her lip lightly to prevent herself from making any sound.

Her whole body was as tense as a fully-stretched bow, and her heart was pounding like it was about to jump out of her chest.

But when she saw Shu Xinglan's concerned eyes and his eager look, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Seeing that the princess was still teasing the snake, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Chong Shu Xinglan shook his head slightly, indicating that he was fine and didn't need to worry.

Let him look back at you.

Only then did Shu Xinglan patted Shu Xingruo, who was holding his arm.

"Xingruo, don't be afraid, big brother is here."

"Brother, I'm fine." His voice was shaking badly.

Shu Xingruo forced out a smile.

Shu Xinglan glanced at the little green in Lin Qing's hand displeasedly and swallowed back his accusations.

Normally, he would definitely say that Lin Qing should not bring out snakes to scare people. She is not afraid of these slippery things, but others are.

But Lin Qing's attitude towards him today was obviously different from before. She was deliberately neglecting herself.

From the moment she walked in until now, she has not looked at herself seriously.

Shu Xinglan's IQ returned at this time. He knew that now was the time to coax Lin Qing to change her mind. If the eldest princess really lost her friendship with him, then his future would be difficult.

"Your Highness, Princess, why don't you leave your pet to the care of the palace staff? This thing is dangerous. You are delicate and it will be bad if you get hurt."

Shu Xinglan's tone was filled with concern for Lin Qing's health. In the past, if Lin Qing had been looked at by Shu Xinglan with such concern, he would have happily thrown his things to the palace attendants and took them away.

But Lin Qing doesn't want to do this now.

"I am its owner, and it is its blessing that I play with it. If it dares to bite me, it is such a betrayal, and I will naturally not let it live!"

"It has always been spiritual and should know what to do and what not to do."

Lin Qingyi said pointedly, seemingly talking about snakes, but the Shu brothers and sisters and Lu Xiyue couldn't help but bring it to themselves, and the expressions on their faces became more and more bitter and ugly.

"Isn't that right, Xiaolu?"

Lin Qing kissed the snake's head gently, then sat up and looked at the three of them pretending to be calm.

The green snake turned into a jade bracelet again, wrapped around Lin Qing's wrist quietly, closed its cold vertical pupils, and used Lin Qing's wrist as a resting place.

"Why is it such a coincidence today? The three of you happened to come to my palace together?"

Lin Qing sat lazily and looked indifferent.

These three people were probably in a panic because of the morning meeting, so they came here so early.

"My eldest brother and I met Sister Lu in front of the palace gate, so we invited Sister Lu to come with us."

Shu Xingruo looked innocent. If it weren't for the little green on Lin Qing's wrist, she would have sat next to Lin Qing as usual to show her closeness.

Shu Xingruo didn't quite believe the eldest princess's request for one of him or Sister Lu to get married.

She did not see with her own eyes that her elder brother, who had been holding him in front of him, was forced to kneel on the ground by Lin Qing in the court hall, and he raised his chin with his feet in humiliation.

If she knew that Lin Qing had treated Shu Xinglan like that, she would not be so casual now, but would be more cautious.

"Your Highness, I and my sister are here to discuss the marriage with you."

"Oh, Prince Yongchang has already decided on the candidate so quickly, right?"

Lin Qing changed into a comfortable position, holding her chin, wondering how Shu Xinglan would respond to her.

If she was right, the brothers and sisters came here this time thinking about how to remove the candidates for marriage from the Yongchang Hou Mansion and Yong Ping Hou Mansion, or replace them with a concubine.

Shu Xinglan's expression froze. He raised his head and glanced at Lin Qing, who was sitting above him, before speaking slowly.

"No, I beg the eldest princess to take back her marriage. Xingruo has never left home since she was a child and has a lively temperament. She is not a suitable candidate for marriage."

Lin Qing smiled.

"Indeed, Xingruo is still full of childishness. Not only are you, the elder brother, reluctant to let her get married, but I am also reluctant to let her go away. I will have one less person to speak my true feelings to."

The harem would be more lively if there was one more Shu Xingruo.

"In this case, it is my decree that the princess of Yongpinghou Mansion be Princess Chong'en and make peace with Linguo."

"No."

"Your Highness."

Shu Xinglan and Lu Xiyue exclaimed at the same time.

Looking at Lu Xiyue with a pale face, Shu Xinglan's heart ached. If it weren't for the princess palace, he would have wanted to comfort Xiyue.

But just because of the eldest princess, he couldn't do anything. He could only watch the pitiful look of fear in his beloved woman.

"Shu Xinglan, I have said that Princess Chongen will only choose from the two princesses who are direct descendants of the princess. I also want to give you face because of your status as the future consort. If you say Xing is not suitable, then I will I chose Princess Yongpinghoufu. What? You still want to disobey me?"

Lin Qing's face instantly darkened, and a sense of royal majesty came towards the three of them.

"Your Highness, I forgive you, but I don't dare."

The three of them fell to their knees together.

"Shu Xinglan, before you have been emphasizing the justice of the country and the stability of the people of Mianguo, didn't you say that you should sacrifice yourself for the country? Why, the person who sacrificed is not your sister, what are you worried about? Or, this is yours. The person I abandon can only be me."

"Your Highness has misunderstood me. I have never thought of abandoning Your Highness."

"What I said in the court today was not what I wanted. I was forced to say those words. I know that Your Majesty and His Highness are deeply affectionate as siblings. Your Majesty will not agree to let Your Highness go to the court for a marriage, so I said it above the court. That’s what it said.”

Shu Xinglan felt even more humiliated. For such a woman with nothing but beauty, a vicious-hearted lunatic, just because of her status as a princess, people like herself could only kneel at her feet.

I could only hold back my reluctance and say these insincere words in front of the woman I loved most.

"Is it a last resort? Oh, tell me, why is it a last resort?"

Lin Qing followed Shu Xinglan's words and deliberately asked how Shu Xinglan could lie to him.
