After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death

"Mother!"

Princess Linping was talking to Madam Ding when she suddenly heard a tender cry. Then she saw Lou Ying rushing in, throwing herself into her arms, crying and refusing to look up.

"Oh, what happened?" Before Lin Ping could say anything, Lady Dingguo's heart skipped a beat. She smiled and asked with concern, "Why is our eldest daughter crying?"

Lin Ping stroked Lou Ying's hair with a smile and said to Madam Ding, "She has always had this temperament since she was a child. She cries when she's angry and laughs when she's happy."

She asked her daughter lovingly, "Ying'er, you were so happy when you went out, why are you crying?"

Lou Ying then raised her head with sobs, her eyes full of tears and her nose red. Where was the trace of her previous domineering and arrogant look?

She cried, "Mother, you have to take charge of me! Someone bullied me and not only did I not say anything, I even beat him up!"

Before Princess Linping could say anything, the wife of Duke Dingguo was surprised.

This was a huge shock. She couldn't believe it and said, "How could this happen?"

Lin Ping asked calmly, "Tell me clearly, the people here are all ladies from wealthy families, how could anyone do that?"

Lou Ying then half cried and half complained, exaggerating the previous incident, and even asked her personal maid to come forward, pointing at the finger marks on her face and said, "Look, mother, Yingtao only said a few words for me, and she got a slap like this!"

Madam Ding was immediately unable to sit still and was about to call Shen Cunzhu over to question her, but Lin Ping waved her hand. She took out a silk handkerchief and wiped her daughter's tears first: "I thought it was no big deal, but it was just a quarrel between two girls. Is it worth crying like this? Madam Ding is making a fool of herself."

As she spoke, she pulled her daughter to sit down and told the nanny to fetch some water: "You are almost the age of marriage, why are you still so impatient?"

Lou Ying, however, stayed in her mother's arms and refused to get up: "If mother doesn't support me, I will be too embarrassed to see anyone."

She blatantly complained: "You don't know, that Lin Ruozhen is really abominable, he has no respect for you and the Duke's Mansion, shouldn't he be punished?"

Lin Ping called someone over and took his daughter downstairs to re-do her makeup and hair. Then he turned to Mrs. Ding, who was a little fidgety, and said, "I'm sorry to make you laugh. Madam, you are the owner. What do you think we should do about this?"

Mrs. Ding was at a loss when asked this question. She was not sure what Lin Ping meant, so she just said, "Of course, everything is up to the eldest princess."

Lin Ping said, "The guest should follow the host's wishes. In the Duke Dingguo's mansion, there is no reason for her to be at my mercy. My daughter is too spoiled, but she won't make up a story out of nothing."

Mrs. Ding heard this, but she understood the princess's hidden meaning and did not want to let the matter go. She stood up sweating and apologized: "I must give an explanation to the princess and Miss Lou."

Lin Ping heard this and asked her to sit down with a smile: "Mrs. Ding is too cautious. We can't just listen to Ying'er's one-sided words about today's incident."

She picked up the teacup and took a sip, praising, "Your mansion's Sixianchun tea is indeed very good. I heard that the old Duke has a favorite peach tree that is famous in the capital. I wonder if Linping will have the honor to see it?"

Ning'er and Lin Ruozhen sat in front of a flower garden, but Xing Yueyuan was still a little frightened. She complained, "Sister Lin, you are too reckless. Why did you have to tear your face with Lou Ying? Even if you hold your temper, what's the big deal?"

Lin Ruozhen's anger had subsided by now, and she said calmly, "I've already provoked her, what else can I do? I can't just let that maid ride on my head. Not to mention that she's not a princess, even if she really is, she can't be unreasonable, right?"

Xing Yueyuan disagreed, "The late emperor's bloodline was not strong, and he only left two daughters besides the current emperor. Moreover, Princess Linping was born to the empress dowager, so she is so noble. If she really favors her daughter, what good will it do you?"

Lin Ruozhen said, "After all the trouble I've caused before, do you really want me to humble myself and apologize to her? At most, I'll just tell my father about it and give me a lecture."

She looked at Ning'er with some regret: "I'm sorry for causing trouble for Sister Shen and causing you to suffer an unexpected disaster."

Ning'er is different from her. She is the eldest daughter in the family and is favored, but Ning'er is now living as a guest in the Xinyuan Marquis Mansion. If she gets into trouble like this and the eldest princess blames her, it will be difficult for her to stay in the mansion.

Ning Er comforted her instead: "I think the princess is not an unreasonable person, she may not blame me. Besides, you have seen that the old lady in our house treats me very well, sister, don't worry."

Xing Yueman raised her head and said, "It has already happened, there is no point in worrying. If His Highness really wants to blame us, we will definitely help my sister to clear the matter up."

Ning'er thought about it, but her face showed worry: "That's not what I'm worried about. Think about it, sister, there were no outsiders in the garden at that time. Under such circumstances, the person who secretly pushed others must have bad intentions. He wanted to provoke a conflict between us and Miss Lou."

"There is someone hiding behind the scenes who is so cunning, and we don't know who she is going to target or when she will strike again. This is worrying."

This made everyone frown. Miss Xing said, "Sister Shen is right. You have just arrived in Beijing and probably don't know many people. That person is probably here for Sister Lin."

She pushed Lin Ruozhen and said, "Sister Lin, think carefully about whether you have ever offended anyone."

Lin Ruozhen racked his brains for a long time and said with a bitter face: "This is bad. I am not very careful in my daily actions. I may have offended a lot of people."

Ning Er was amused by this, and the haze that had been shrouding her heart was mostly dissipated. She smiled and said, "In that case, we don't have to worry about it anymore. If that person intends to harm others, she will definitely try again if she fails once. We should be more careful in secret. Wait quietly for her to make a move, and we won't worry about not being able to catch her."

Lin Ruozhen clapped his hands and said teasingly: "With Ning'er as my female military advisor, I don't have to worry anymore."

She cheered up again: "You are still young, but I am about to get married. The days of fun in the boudoir are getting fewer and fewer. There is really no need to ruin your mood because of these people."

Lin Ruozhen smiled and said to Ning'er, "Weren't you thinking about that 'Four Scholars' plant earlier? Since there is still some time before we leave, why don't we go take a look?"

Ning Er naturally had no objection, but the Xing sisters said, "We have already seen it, it is indeed a masterpiece, so we will not go. You guys go."

Ning'er and Lin Ruozhen learned their lesson this time and walked slowly along the way, fearing that they would bump into another noble lady. After a cup of tea, they arrived in front of a door with carved beams and painted buildings. There was a plaque hanging on the door with the words "Cui Lu" written on it.

Two neatly dressed maids came up and asked, "Are you two here to enjoy the flowers as well?"

Lin Ruozhen nodded, and the maid led them inside, saying with a smile, "Girls, you've come at the right time. Her Royal Highness the Princess is enjoying the view inside!"
