After my rebirth, my whole family read my mind, and my father decided to usurp the throne.

Zhang Sheng didn't show up earlier and later, but he showed up at this time and stopped her!

It’s really useless!

Forget it, she knew where the outer room lived anyway, so it didn't matter if she didn't follow him.

It's better to deal with Zhang Sheng first.

"I promise you, let me go."

Lin Jingru said this in a low voice, and Zhang Sheng let go of her.

Zhang Sheng took Lin Jingru to a private room in a teahouse.

With the two of them alone, Lin Jingru asked straight to the point as soon as she sat down.

"Why did you come to the capital for no reason? Are you really here to see me?"

Zhang Sheng sat in front of Lin Jingru and poured her tea.

"Ru'er, I haven't seen you for many years, and I thought your attitude towards me would be better.

I didn’t expect that you don’t even pretend now. "

Zhang Sheng, who has passed his thirties, is still tall and tall, but his handsome face is weathered.

His voice was light, and it was impossible to tell whether he had any hatred or love for Lin Jingru.

"Zhang Sheng, I made it very clear to you back then. As long as your family situation is better or you are more progressive, I will marry you.

It's a pity that you have no ambition, so naturally I can only part ways with you.

It's been so many years now. You and I can live our own lives, and it's best not to disturb each other. If you have nothing to do, I'll leave first. "

After Lin Jingru finished speaking to herself, she stood up and left.

"Ru'er, you married the Prince Ning you wanted to marry and became Princess Ning. Are you happy these years?"

Zhang Sheng's words made Lin Jingru pause.

happiness?

Is her life considered happy?

Doesn't count.

But from the very beginning when she chose Prince Ning, she was already prepared to be unhappy.

What she had hoped for all these years was that one day Prince Ning, the eldest son, could become the next emperor, and then she could become the queen.

As long as she can become the queen, any happiness or unhappiness is all lies.

"Ru'er, you chose Prince Ning sixteen years ago. Today, sixteen years later, can you choose me?"

Zhang Sheng's words made Lin Jingru stunned for a moment.

She calmed down her emotions and turned her head to look at him calmly.

"You came to the capital just to say this to me?

That disappoints you, I will never regret the choice I made. "

Zhang Sheng's eyes showed sadness, "Even if Prince Ning betrays you?"

Lin Jingru's eyelids twitched, "Do you know something?"

"Well, come here now, three days later, and I will tell you what you want to know."

After Zhang Sheng said this, Lin Jingru left.

Lin Jingru's heartbeat accelerated a lot, and she vaguely felt that some things seemed to be out of her control.

In other words, she has never been able to control things.

Zhang Sheng left the teahouse, walked into the alley, and came to the back door of Prince Kang's Mansion.

The servant was still a little puzzled when he opened the back door.

Why do some guests take the initiative to come in through the back door?

"My dear Zhang Sheng, I would like to see the prince, please let me know."

"It turns out to be Mr. Zhang. Please, the prince has been waiting for you for a long time."

The servant took Zhang Sheng to Qingzhuyuan.

Zhang Sheng was still a little confused. How did Prince Kang know that he would come to his door?

It was obviously that person who asked him to come to the capital, and only that person knew.

"Common people see the prince and the princess."

Zhang Sheng came in and wanted to kneel down to salute, but King Kang came forward and supported him.

"Don't be too polite, Zhang Sheng. We haven't seen you for many years. It seems like you haven't changed much."

Zhang Sheng smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, the common people have aged a lot."

King Kang patted Zhang Sheng on the shoulder and smiled heartily, "What's the point of being old? We are still young. Sit down and let's talk."

Zhang Sheng sat down awkwardly and spoke first, "Your Majesty, I heard from your servants that you were waiting for Cao Min. I wonder...how did you know that Cao Min came to the capital?"

"This is a secret. Not only do I know that you have come to the capital, but I also know that Prince Ning asked you to come.

And Prince Ning also used your family to blackmail you and asked you to do something for him, right? "

King Kang's words made Zhang Sheng's pupils tremble.

"Your Majesty, you..."

King Kang smiled meaningfully, how did he know?

Of course he heard what his precious daughter was saying!

If he and his wife hadn't wanted to keep Princess Ning to deal with King Ning, he could have stayed out of the matter and watched with cold eyes as Princess Ning was tricked by King Ning into becoming a concubine.

But at this stage, only Princess Ning can make Prince Ning distressed for a while.

Naturally, Princess Ning could not be plotted by Prince Ning so easily.

In particular, Prince Ning's plan also involves innocent people.

"Zhang Sheng, do you really believe what King Ning said? If you do as he says, he will not only protect you and let you leave the capital safely, but also protect your family?

If you really did that thing, it would not only harm Princess Ning, but also yourself.

Back then, you could give up your status as a retainer in the palace and your promising future, leave the capital, and return to your hometown to live a stable life. But now, are you really willing to be involved in various calculations? "

King Kang asked Zhang Sheng seriously.

Zhang Sheng pursed his lips. At that time, he was very high-spirited and wanted to show off his power in the capital. He wanted to bring his mother to the capital so that her mother could live a good life with maids to serve her.

By chance, he was favored by Prince Kang, and he entered Prince Kang's mansion and became a retainer.

Later, she fell in love at first sight with Ru'er, who had not yet become Princess Ning.

He and Ruer had a happy time.

He thought his future could continue to go smoothly.

But when Ru'er knew that he was just a retainer in Prince Kang's palace, and his family background could be said to be poor rather than ordinary, Ru'er left him and turned around and fell into the arms of Prince Ning.

After that, he fell out of love and realized how difficult it was to do anything in the capital without connections or foundation.

After being framed by other disciples once, he bid farewell to Prince Kang in despair and left the capital.

This separation lasted more than ten years.

Until King Ning's people found him and asked him to enter the capital.

Seeing Zhang Sheng's relaxed expression, Ye Peizhu said softly, "Mr. Zhang, we can help you with what you are worried about.

I think you don’t want to hurt Jingru either.

If you insist on doing what Prince Ning said, we will tell Jingru truthfully so that she can avoid this plot.

But when the time comes, if Prince Ning's plan fails, he may be angry with you, and Jingru may also hate you.

Do you really want to see this happen? "

Ye Peizhu and Kang Wang played a good role and a bad role, which finally made Zhang Sheng shaken.

His face was full of distress, "The common people don't want this. My lord and princess, if the common people don't do what King Ning said, are you two really willing to help the common people protect your mother, wife and children?"
