The queen lowered her eyes, "Of course I will do it according to the emperor's wishes."

Jiang Ruanxi looked at her respectfully, but her hands were slightly bent. It could be seen that the queen was not very satisfied with the result.

The emperor was very satisfied and turned to Jiang Ruan Xi, "Miss Ling family, do you have any complaints about the fifth princess treating you like this?"

Jiang Ruanxi said slowly, "I don't dare. Your Majesty has already punished the fifth princess on my behalf, and I no longer have any complaints."

Although Jiang Ruan Xi said this, Wei Chang's eyes on the side were extremely cold.

The emperor was very satisfied and said to the queen, "So many things happened today. I think everyone is tired. Let the banquet end here."

"Yes." The queen said respectfully.

The emperor glanced at the people present and said calmly, "What happened today is that the fifth princess is young and immature, so you can just watch it as if you were watching a child throwing a tantrum."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Everyone understood the emperor's threat and said one after another.

After the emperor left, everyone was dismissed.

Wei Chang looked at her apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't protect you well and made you feel wronged."

What happened today was all due to his carelessness. If he hadn't arrived in time, he would really have unimaginable consequences.

Thinking that she almost drowned just now, Wei Chang's face instantly turned cold, and there was an intoxicating aura around him.

Wei Chang was the prince, and he actually apologized to himself. Jiang Ruanxi felt like a warm current flowed through his heart. Jiang Ruanxi shook his hand and said with a smile, "You don't need to apologize, it's not your fault. In fact, today I Hui knew that the fifth princess would take action, so I deliberately let her push her into the water."

Wei Chang was stunned for a moment, but he soon understood why she did this, and he felt even more distressed, "There are other ways, you don't need to take such a big risk."

"I know, but it is the most effective way to get them to dispel the idea that I am Miss Ling, not Mrs. Lin. Otherwise, there will be endless doubts in the future, which is not conducive to our future actions. Besides, I don't want to Holding you back."

Hearing that she was still thinking about herself at this time, Wei Chang's eyes trembled slightly and he felt warm in his heart.

There were thousands of words in my heart, but I swallowed them all in my heart. In the end, I could only cry out softly, "Xixi..."

This cry was like a feather shaking back and forth in her heart, making her blush involuntarily.

In order to divert attention, Jiang Ruanxi said, "Everyone just saw the mole on my face, which has not changed at all. They all believe that I am the daughter of the Ling family, but even the people hiding in the dark are still I doubt that I will take action for the time being. But if you just started taking action with the fifth princess for me, will it ruin your big event?"

Jiang Ruanxi knew very well in his heart that Wei Chang's methods would not put the fifth princess in his eyes at all.

He usually disdains it, but if he does now, the fifth princess and even the strength behind the fifth princess will not give up.

Especially looking at the emperor's attitude towards the fifth princess today, she felt even more uneasy.

Wei Chang touched her head and comforted her, "Don't worry about me. I'm just a fifth princess. She can't hurt me. If it were that easy, I, the prince, would not be stable. However, I will definitely do what I want to do today." I’ll give you a good explanation so that you won’t be hurt in vain.”

As he spoke, Wei Chang's expression turned sinister.

"Your Highness, the Queen has prepared clothes for Miss Ling."

Suddenly, Marubi's voice sounded outside.

"Bring it in." The prince said calmly, then looked at Jiang Ruan Xi with a gentle face, "Go and change your clothes first, and I will take you out of the palace later."

"it is good."

When Jiang Ruanxi changed her clothes, she found that the clothes seemed a bit too big.

Marubi also noticed this problem and said apologetically, "I feel wronged, Miss Ling."

"Aunt Marubi is serious. I am very satisfied if I can change out of my wet clothes. There is nothing wrong with me."

Then he changed the topic, "Because of my relationship, the Queen's flower viewing banquet could not be held today. I feel really guilty."

After speaking, he lowered his head.

Marubi didn't expect her to be so kind. Thinking of how she had blocked the slap from the fifth princess for him not long ago, he couldn't help but like her a little bit.

In addition, she was the future crown princess, so I wanted to curry favor with her even more.

"Miss Ling, don't take it to heart. I've told my empress what happened today. You are not responsible for all this. It can only be caused by the inappropriate timing."

Seeing that she still looked guilty, Wanbi continued, "Miss Ling, His Royal Highness is still waiting for you outside. Why don't you go back first? I think the Grand Master is also worried about you."

"Thank you Aunt Marubi for reminding me, I'm going out first."

Marubi nodded.

After sending Jiang Ruanxi and Wei Chang away, Wanbi returned to the queen and reported everything to the queen about what had just happened.

Finally, she couldn't help but sigh, "I think Miss Ling is a sensible person and has no complaints about this matter. When I sent her out, I saw her standing with His Highness the Crown Prince. She really looked like a talented man and a beautiful woman. Isn't that right? I know if that person will not be able to bear this tone of complaint, and if he will resort to any clumsy means.

Also, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also a very considerate person. If the empress takes action this time, she doesn’t know whether she will be suspicious of you or not. "

In fact, all of this was designed by the queen.

From now on, she wanted to use Jiang Ruanxi to rest. The fifth princess was a narrow-minded person, and she would definitely get into trouble if her affair with her was exposed.

When the trouble gets bigger, even if the emperor loves the fifth princess very much, he will punish the fifth princess.

But unexpectedly, the queen underestimated the status of the fifth princess in the emperor's heart.

The queen looked at the daffodils on the table and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, "Don't worry, even if it is suspicion, there is no evidence. What can he do? The emperor is reluctant to punish the fifth princess, but someone will punish her for us."

Marubi didn't speak, but he was worried in his heart.

Although the Queen's plan is good, if His Highness the Crown Prince knew the truth one day, wouldn't there be a gap between him and her?

Isn’t the relationship between the two becoming more and more distant?

**

After leaving the palace, Jiang Ruanxi and Wei Chang rode in a carriage.

The people of the Qin Dynasty were open and the two were already engaged and about to get married. Even so, no one would gossip.

In the carriage, Jiang Ruanxi thought about it but still didn't understand, "Your Highness, there is something I don't understand. Please tell me."

"Xixi, there's no need to be so polite. If you have anything, just ask."

Jiang Ruanxi thought of everything that happened not long ago and couldn't help but wonder, "Husband, why do I always feel that the emperor does not like you very much?"
