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

In order to prevent Shen's mother and daughter from disturbing Nan Mingyu again and to give himself time to make plans, Lin Qing sent someone to secretly deliver a message to Lin Qingyao early in the morning.

So the maid that Lin Qingyao sent to the Third Prince's Mansion to inquire about the news came back in a hurry early in the morning.

"Miss, the Third Prince left the palace last night. He did not mention anything about marrying a concubine."

Lin Qingyao was shocked. No way? How could the Third Prince deceive her? What went wrong? The Third Prince had clearly planned with her long ago, and would immediately ask the Emperor for a marriage after the plan was completed. Could it be that all this was a lie made by the Third Prince to deceive her into raising food for him?

No! This is impossible! This is absolutely impossible! Looking at all the noble ladies in Kyoto City, the only one who is worthy of the position of the third prince's wife is herself. Others are either prettier than herself but not as high-ranking as her father, or higher-ranking than her father but not as pretty as herself, and she has always maintained a good reputation in Kyoto City.

If it wasn't for helping the Third Prince this time, she would definitely have participated in this activity of donating food and porridge to the victims. She was giving the opportunity to become famous to the Third Prince. There was no reason for the Third Prince to betray her. It was impossible, absolutely impossible!

Lin Qingyao was so angry that she clenched the handkerchief in her hand. She covered her chest tightly and muttered to herself, "Impossible, impossible, did you get the wrong information? Go get it again!"

After saying that, she lifted up the teacup on the table and smashed it at the maid. Shen happened to come over to have breakfast with Lin Qingyao, and the teacup that Lin Qingyao smashed landed right next to Shen's feet.

This frightened Shen who had just walked in, "Oh my God! I'm scared to death!"

Shen came in, stroking her chest, and asked softly, "Why are you so angry so early in the morning, Yao'er?"

Lin Qingyao looked at Shen with tears in her eyes, "Mother." Before she finished speaking, tears started to fall from the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this, Shen quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe Lin Qingyao's tears, and then said to the maid in the room, "Everyone, get out and guard the door."

After the maid left, Lin Qingyao hugged Shen and cried, "Mother! The Third Prince... The Third Prince... He left the palace last night, but he didn't send anyone to give me any news. The person who went out to inquire yesterday came back and said that the Third Prince didn't even mention to the Emperor that he wanted to marry a princess. Mother! What should I do, mother!"

Shen was also panicked after hearing this. The thing she feared the most had happened. She had put all her wealth down! Not only was there the dowry she had prepared for Lin Qingyao over the years, but also her pension money. Together with the previous deposit, it had taken away all her money!

She quickly sat down and poured herself a cup of tea to calm her nerves. She said, "Yao'er, don't panic. Don't lose your composure. You should first find a way to meet the Third Prince and ask him in person. It's better than us making random guesses here."

After hearing this, Lin Qingyao nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, yes, yes, mother is right. Yao'er will send someone to tell the third prince right away."

Lin Qingyao quickly picked up a pen and wrote a letter, and immediately arranged for someone to send it out.

Ye Tinghua, who received the letter, tore it up without even reading it. He ordered Du Song expressionlessly, "You are really getting better at doing things now. You even sent Lin Qingyao's letter to me. This time, she almost ruined my plan. I am glad that I didn't cause trouble for her. She even had the nerve to send me a letter. Give orders. If Miss Lin's men come again, beat them back directly."

Du Song curled his lips and said, "Your Highness really has no sympathy for women. Miss Lin is quite pretty and she is infatuated with Your Highness. If she can't be your principal wife, she can be your concubine."

After hearing this, Ye Tinghua kicked Du Song and said, "You are a bit stubborn, aren't you?"

Du Song rubbed the thigh that was kicked by Ye Tingxuan and said, "Then your highness, are we still going to Zuixianlou for lunch?"

Ye Tinghua played with the folding fan in his hand and said, "Go! Why not? On a snowy day like this, it's more comfortable to go to Zuixianlou to eat mutton hotpot. Go and get me my black fox fur cloak, and we'll go right away."

Du Song obediently took the cloak and asked in a frivolous manner, "Your Highness, aren't you afraid that Miss Lin will go to Zuixianlou to block you?"

After hearing this, Ye Tinghua kicked him again, "Block me? Are you dead? You can't even handle a woman, right?"

Du Song curled his lips and said, "Your Highness, I don't hit women."

Ye Tinghua rolled his eyes and was about to attack Du Song, but Du Song immediately said, "Your Highness can make an appointment with Miss Li. She will definitely be able to protect Your Highness."

Ye Tinghua didn't respond. He let Du Song dress him and walked out of the room.

The person Lin Qingyao sent to deliver the letter to Ye Tinghua came back soon. She said that the Third Prince's people told them that they didn't need to go to the Third Prince's Mansion anymore.

After hearing the news, Lin Qingyao immediately became anxious. She hugged Shen and cried again.

Shen quickly comforted her, "Yao'er, what's wrong with you now? You have always been the most opinionated person, how come you have become so helpless? Stop crying quickly, or your eyes will be swollen. How can you face the Third Prince?"

Lin Qingyao immediately perked up when she heard the Third Prince's words. She wiped her tears and asked, "Mother, what do you mean by that? Is there any way to let the Third Prince see Yao'er?"

Shen quickly walked to Lin Qingyao's wardrobe and helped her pick out clothes. "Yao'er, you are silly. The Third Prince doesn't want to see you, so you can go see him! Hurry up and wash your face and put on makeup again. Mother will pick out a nice dress for you.

You must have some misunderstandings. As long as you meet and clear up the misunderstandings, you can go out and meet the Third Prince at his frequented places. As the saying goes, love grows stronger when you meet. As long as the Third Prince sees my fairy-like Yao'er, he will definitely change his mind!"

After hearing this, Lin Qingyao seemed to have found a backbone, so she immediately perked up and called the maid to help her wash and put on makeup.

After putting on makeup, Shen looked at Lin Qingyao in the bronze mirror and selected hairpins and rings for her. Lin Qingyao looked at her stunning face in the bronze mirror and said, "With my looks and talent, even the crown prince is worthy of me. I don't believe that the third prince won't change his mind after seeing me."

Seeing that Lin Qingyao had regained her fighting spirit, Shen nodded with satisfaction and then told her what she had just thought.

"It doesn't matter if Yao'er doesn't meet the Third Prince this time. We can't keep putting all our eggs in one basket. If you can't meet the Third Prince, Yao'er might as well look for the Second Young Master of the Li Family. Even if you don't marry into the Li Family in the future, you can still coax him into spending some money on you. We've really run out of money this time."

After listening to what Shen said, Lin Qingyao also thought about it in her mind. She inserted the last pearl hairpin into her hair and nodded solemnly in response.

"Yao'er knows mother, Yao'er will definitely not let mother down."
