In the previous life, she was fed to dogs by her elder sister, and she was reborn to seek revenge

In Lin Qingye's room, Cui Xi and several maids brought in a few side dishes, put down a pot of warm wine, and then quietly left.

When Lin Qingye was the only one left in the room, Ye Tingxuan turned over and jumped in from the window.

Lin Qing also looked at Ye Tingxuan in front of him, and couldn't help but think of the first time he climbed through the window into his room, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Ye Tingxuan walked to Lin Qingye with a smile on his face and asked softly.

"Baoer, what are you thinking about? Why are you so happy?"

Lin Qing also sat down at the table, poured two glasses of wine and said to Ye Tingxuan.

"I was thinking that the first time you came to look for me, you also climbed in through the window like this."

After hearing this, Ye Tingxuan scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, then sat down, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Why do you want to drink today?"

At this moment, Lin Qingye also raised his head, swallowed a mouthful of wine, and let out a long sigh.

"Just thinking that we haven't had a good meal together in a while, so I thought about having a drink."

Ye Tingxuan was still frowning at this moment, looking like he was troubled. He did not respond, but drank one glass of wine after another.

Lin Qing also quickly noticed that Ye Tingxuan was in a bad mood. She thought that Ye Tingxuan was still worried about what happened in the palace tonight, so she spoke to comfort him.

"Forget it. Their plan has not succeeded."

After hearing this, Ye Tingxuan realized that Lin Qing also thought that he was worried about what happened tonight, so he also started to explain.

"Since the Imperial Grandmother has come forward to deal with tonight's matter, she will definitely be able to handle it properly. Although we don't know yet what Concubine Yu and the others are planning tonight, I believe that the Imperial Grandmother and the Queen Mother will be able to investigate it as soon as possible."

After saying this, Ye Tingxuan looked at Lin Qingye and said with a firm look.

"Bao'er, trust me. I will protect you no matter what."

Lin Qing had many questions in her mind, but after hearing what Ye Tingxuan said, she put those thoughts aside temporarily. She could see that Ye Tingxuan was worried tonight, and she didn't want to add to his troubles.

Lin Qing also put a small dish into Ye Tingxuan's bowl and said softly, "Eat something first. Drinking on an empty stomach is harmful to your health."

Ye Tingxuan also obediently put the side dish in the bowl into his mouth with a chopstick and forced a smile at Lin Qing.

Lin Qingye did not intend to ask Ye Tingxuan anything, but instead changed the subject.

"Hasn't the Second Prince reached the age of marriage? Why hasn't he married yet?"

In the previous life, the Second Prince had never married a wife until Lin Qingye died, but he had many concubines. So Lin Qingye was actually a little curious about which noblewoman the Second Prince would marry in the end.

After hearing this, Ye Tingxuan knew why Lin Qing suddenly asked this question. He had not only heard about the matter about Lin Qingye's elder sister Lin Qingyao and the second prince, but he also knew about the humiliation of Shen by the bandits. The memory of his previous life in his dream also told him that Shen and Lin Qingyao, mother and daughter, were the ones who killed Lin Qingye's mother in the previous life.

Therefore, Ye Tingxuan also guessed that Lin Qingyao was with the Second Prince in this life, and Lin Qingye's secret instigation was inevitable. And Lin Qingye's words today also wanted to know whether Lin Qingyao had the possibility of entering the Second Prince's mansion.

After drinking another glass of wine, Ye Tingxuan spoke calmly.

"As everyone knows, Concubine Yu was an orphan that my father picked up on the street when he was still a prince. Since she came to the palace, she has been serving my father. And among all the concubines in the harem, Concubine Yu has given birth to the most children for my father.

Baoer, do you know why Concubine Yu, who has no mother's family to rely on, is the most favored person? "

After hearing this, Lin Qing also took a sip of wine and spoke without thinking.

"This is naturally because Concubine Yu is an orphan with no one to rely on. The only one she can rely on is the emperor. Even if she gives birth to many princes, as long as she loses the emperor's favor, the princes will be isolated and helpless in the court.

After all, the honor and favor of Concubine Yu and her children were all controlled by the emperor. That's why the emperor favored her so much over the years and allowed her to leave behind so many children. "

After hearing this, Ye Tingxuan nodded in agreement.

"Then Bao'er, have you ever thought about what if this noble lady Yu is not an orphan?"

“Cough cough cough cough…”

Lin Qing was suddenly choked by a mouthful of wine and started coughing violently. Ye Tingxuan hurriedly stood up to help her rub her back and asked with concern.

"Baoer, are you okay?"

Lin Qingye was coughing really hard this time, and her throat felt a tearing pain. She swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and waved to Ye Tingxuan, indicating that she was fine.

Seeing this, Ye Tingxuan was still a little worried. He took away the wine glass in front of her, stood up to pour her a cup of tea, and tested the temperature on his lips before handing it to Lin Qingye's lips with satisfaction.

"Baoer, drink some tea to moisten your throat first."

Lin Qing took the tea handed to her by Ye Tingxuan somewhat embarrassedly. She took a sip with a slightly red face, then cleared her throat and gave Ye Tingxuan an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, I just drank too much and I accidentally choked on the wine."

Ye Tingxuan did not respond, but stood with his eyes lowered, looking at Lin Qingye with a doting expression, then suddenly stretched out a hand and gently tidied up Lin Qingye's messy hair.

Lin Qingye's face turned even redder because of shyness, and she quickly changed the subject.

"Ah Xuan, do you have any basis for what you just said?"

Ye Tingxuan also turned around at this moment and sat back in his previous seat. Then he considerately put a side dish into Lin Qingye's bowl with his chopsticks and said casually.

"The person Consort Yu secretly chose for the Second Prince is from Consort Yu's family."

After hearing this, Lin Qing's eyes widened again and she immediately became interested. She immediately stood up and filled a glass of wine for Ye Tingxuan and handed it to him with a smile.

"Don't be in a hurry. The night is long. Let's talk slowly. Have a drink to moisten your throat first."

When Ye Tingxuan saw Lin Qingye's playful and flattering look, he liked her very much. He felt that Lin Qingye at this moment was truly like someone of her age, very playful and cute. He knew in his heart how hard Lin Qingye's life was in her previous life, so he decided that he must try his best to protect her in this life.

Ye Tingxuan's gaze stayed on Lin Qingye for a long time, and Lin Qingye suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She raised her eyes and happened to meet Ye Tingxuan's gaze. She saw that his dark eyes were full of pampering and tenderness.
