On the way back, Lin Qingyao was still lost in thought. Jamel Xiao held her in his arms and asked softly, "What are you thinking about? Why are you so engrossed?"

Lin Qingyao came back to her senses after hearing this and smiled slightly.

"I feel sorry for Tang Yingqian. She's actually a pretty good person. She was just unfriendly to me in the past because Lin Qingrou instigated her. You said she has good conditions in all aspects and can marry any man she wants. Why did she choose Xiao Jingyi, a rotten man?"

Xiao Jingxuan chuckled when he heard this. "It is said that everyone has their own preferences. Honey to you is more poison than arsenic. You cannot use your own standards to judge others. Besides, you must be the one who knows best how good Xiao Jingyi is at disguising himself. You think this way now only because you have seen through him, but others may not be able to see clearly. People in this world are most interested in seeking benefits and avoiding harm. Even if Xiao Jingyi's reputation is damaged, as long as he is still a prince, he will not be truly abandoned. Don't you see that so many people came to congratulate him today?"

Lin Qingyao was very disdainful when she heard this. "They are just putting on a show. They keep saying that they wish them a good match. But when they asked their daughter to marry Xiao Jingyi, they all tried to avoid him. Now that everything is settled, they are here to make sarcastic remarks again."

Jamel Xiao was already used to it. "They've always been like this, just get used to it. You still have time to worry about Tang Yingqian. She has now officially become the Princess Kang. Your plan will be put on the agenda soon. Are you ready?"

Lin Qingyao chuckled when she heard this, "I have been working on making Lin Qingrou unhappy, so there is no need to prepare. In a few days, when Tang Yingqian is free, I can go to Prince Kang's Mansion more often, and Lin Qingrou's good days will be over. However, before that, there is a good opportunity to humiliate Lin Qingrou."

Jamel Xiao immediately understood what she said, “Madam, are you referring to Uncle San’s wedding?”

"That's right. Tang Yingqian will ask Lin Qingrou to go with her, and we can see with our own eyes how they are laughed at by others."

Lin Qingyao was looking forward to this good opportunity to humiliate Lin Qingrou and her daughter, and Tang Yingqian had already put this matter on the agenda.

Since their marriage, Xiao Jingyi has always been considerate to her. He always gave her enough face whether he went to the palace to pay his respects or accompanied her back home. Tang Yingqian has lived a very happy life these days.

Taking advantage of Xiao Jingyi's enthusiasm for obeying her in everything, Tang Yingqian suggested taking Lin Qingrou with her to attend the wedding at the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion in a few days.

Xiao Jingyi was a little surprised by this, "Why did the princess think of this?"

Tang Yingqian smiled and said, "Your Highness should know that I used to be very close to Sister Lin. Although our statuses are somewhat different now, this does not affect our relationship. With your current status, I'm afraid you won't be able to attend, but if Your Highness agrees, you can go. I think this is a happy event for your family after all, so you should want to witness it with your own eyes, right?"

Tang Yingqian seemed to be considering Lin Qingrou in every way, but in fact she wanted to stab Lin Qingrou in the heart.

Her father was going to get married soon, and his wife was going to marry her mother's half-sister, and she and her daughter would have to watch helplessly. The mere thought of it was extremely cruel.

But for Tang Yingqian and Lin Qingyao, this is a good opportunity to take revenge on Lin Qingrou and relieve their hatred.

Tang Yingqian also deliberately pretended that she still had a good relationship with Lin Qingrou in order to win Xiao Jingyi's favor.

Anyway, Xiao Jingyi had seen her and Lin Qingrou often together before, and he knew that they had a good relationship at that time.

As for the many changes that happened later, Xiao Jingyi didn't know the inside story and naturally couldn't discover it.

Tang Yingqian insisted that their relationship was still the same, and Xiao Jingyi would not go out of his way to verify it, so he would just believe what Tang Yingqian said.

Tang Yingqian was not worried that Lin Qingrou would expose her. After all, she was now the queen, and Lin Qingrou was just a concubine.

Lin Qingrou might still have to rely on her in many places, and she might even try to make her remember their past relationship.

If Tang Yingqian said that they had a good relationship, Lin Qingrou would probably be more than happy to do so. Why would she take the initiative to cut off her own retreat?

Xiao Jingyi nodded when he heard this. He used to be around Rou'er a lot, so he naturally knew that the two of them had a good relationship.

Seeing that Tang Yingqian still cared about Rou'er after all that had happened and was not estranged from her, Xiao Jingyi unconsciously developed a better impression of Tang Yingqian.

In fact, he had only met Tang Yingqian a few times when he was with Rou'er before, so he could only say that he had some impression of her.

Having not seen her for such a long time, Xiao Jingyi had even forgotten what she looked like.

But the Tang family still has a certain status in the capital. Although Tang Yingqian's grandfather Tang Mingzhong is old, his position as the Minister of Revenue is still very stable.

Even though Xiao Jingyi's brother-in-law Cao Hui tried so hard, he was unable to pose any threat to Tang Mingzhong's position.

Such a force is undoubtedly a life-saving straw for Xiao Jingyi now, and he must grab it.

On the day of his wedding, Xiao Jingyi secretly made up his mind that even if it would offend Cao Hui, he had to get the support of the Tang family. This was very important to him now.

And for all this Xiao Jingyi had to start with Tang Yingqian. Fortunately, Tang Yingqian had always cared about him, so it was not difficult to win her over.

So these days Xiao Jingyi did his best to take care of Tang Yingqian, and Xiao Jingyi could see that Tang Yingqian enjoyed it very much.

After spending a few days together, Xiao Jingyi slowly discovered that Tang Yingqian was actually a gentle and decent woman, and was indeed the perfect choice for her to be the principal wife.

Although he knew that Tang Yingqian had good intentions, Xiao Jingyi was still a little hesitant about this matter.

"I understand the princess's intentions, but after all, it is Rouer's father who is marrying another woman. I'm afraid Rouer would not want to see it with her own eyes. I originally thought about taking Rouer back to the Marquis' Mansion, but this matter is special, and I'm worried that Rouer will be unhappy."

After hearing this, Tang Yingqian felt inexplicably disappointed. It turned out that Lin Qingrou and the prince had feelings for each other, and it was not just her wishful thinking.

When the prince heard about this, his first reaction was to consider Lin Qingrou's thoughts first, which fully demonstrated the importance of Lin Qingrou in his heart.

Tang Yingqian only realized at this moment that the two of them had already been in love with each other at that time, but they were just pretending not to be familiar with each other in front of her and Lin Qingyao.

What's even more ridiculous is that the two of them were acting just to deceive Lin Qingyao and it had nothing to do with her at all.

The reason why Lin Qingrou used her was just to let her cause some trouble to Lin Qingyao.

Tang Yingqian laughed at herself, it turned out that she was not important at all from the beginning to the end, just a chess piece in their hands.
