Chapter 116 Mother and Son 2

The Crown Prince's eyebrows flashed with a trace of discomfort, and he subconsciously retorted: "Mother is serious. Ling Jingshu and I are not familiar with each other."

"Oh?" The Crown Princess raised her eyebrows, and the corners of her lips seemed to smile: "Since we are not familiar with each other, why did you specially reward them with a name card? Whether the young master of the Ling family can see the imperial physician Wei earlier, what does it have to do with you?"

The Crown Prince had a rare embarrassment of a young man, and soon said nonchalantly: "It's just a little help."

What a little help!

The Crown Princess pulled the corners of her lips, but there was not much smile in her eyes: "I don't know when you became so kind-hearted."

The Crown Prince was speechless and simply shut up and stopped talking.

The Crown Princess looked at the Crown Prince steadily, with a sharp gleam in her eyes: "Ayao, there are only me and your father here, no outsiders. Tell me honestly, did Ling Jingshu deliberately take the opportunity to approach you and seduce you?"

Somehow, the Crown Prince always felt that these words were a bit harsh, and answered without hesitation: "No!"

"Really?" The Crown Princess frowned and asked.

The Crown Prince also frowned, with a hint of forbearance and impatience in his tone: "If I say no, then no. Am I lying?"

There was obvious unhappiness in his tone.

The Crown Princess's expression eased a lot: "That Ling Jingshu is indeed beautiful, smart and good at dealing with things. You are not married yet, and you have never experienced women, so it is inevitable that you are confused for a while."

The Crown Prince, who had been silent all this time, also spoke: "Ayao is also fifteen years old. It is inevitable that young people will admire young women for the first time. Why are you making a fuss?"

"Besides, she came to us to treat her brother's illness. Her heart to protect her brother is pitiful. For us, it's just preparing an empty guest room, which is nothing. Since you have agreed, don't think about it anymore."

This sounded much more pleasant.

The Crown Prince's originally frowned brows relaxed.

As soon as the prince spoke, the princess stopped being aggressive and her tone slowed down: "I'm not deliberately thinking about it. It's just that A Yao is still young, and I'm always worried that he will be fascinated by beauty."

After saying that, she looked at the crown prince again and said seriously: "A Yao, it's time for you to choose a crown prince's consort. Choosing a consort for a wedding is not just your business, but also a major event for our East Palace and even the world."

"You should marry a virtuous wife. Of course, her appearance must be dignified and beautiful, but more importantly, her family background, upbringing, temperament, conversation, and interpersonal relationships. Beware of those women with bad intentions who deliberately approach you."

"Women with bad intentions" obviously refers to Ling Jingshu.

The crown prince subconsciously wanted to refute.

Ling Jingshu is not that kind of person. From the first time they met, she was so cold, stubborn and proud, and never took the initiative to meet him or talk...

The words came to his lips, but he swallowed them back.

He knew the crown princess' temper very well.

She looked approachable and gentle, but she was proud and noble like a lady from a scholarly family. She had been the Crown Princess for so many years, and she was used to being high and mighty, and she would not tolerate anyone going against her will. It would be fine if she just complained a few words. If she argued with her, she would be even more unhappy. Her prejudice against Ling Jingshu would also deepen...

After being told this by the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince became interested in Miss Ling Jiu: "Is Miss Ling beautiful?" As for her bad intentions, he did not take it seriously.

For a man, the most important thing is that a beautiful woman can please others. As for her intentions... How ambitious can a woman in the inner house be?

The Crown Princess thought for a while and replied: "She is indeed beautiful. She is not inferior to Concubine Wei back then."

Concubine Wei, who came from the common people, was born with a beautiful and charming appearance, and was known as the most beautiful woman in the harem. This Miss Ling Jiu can be compared with Concubine Wei, which shows how beautiful she is.

The prince understood and said casually: "Since she is born with a good appearance and A Yao likes her, we can take her into the palace after the wedding."

The Crown Princess hesitated for a moment and replied reluctantly: "Forget it, although her birth is lower, she is barely qualified to be a concubine."

The Crown Prince: "..."

The Crown Prince pursed his lips, his face was a little ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "Father, mother, I have no other thoughts about Miss Ling Jiu, and I don't mean to take her as a concubine. Don't mention this matter again in the future."

"It's getting late, father and mother should rest. I won't bother you anymore, so I'll take my leave first."

After saying that, he stood up, bowed and left, and left expressionlessly.

...

The Crown Princess watched her son leave, as if something was blocking her heart, and she was particularly unhappy. She complained to the prince: "Look at him, I just said a few words about Miss Ling Jiu, and he gave me a cold look. He also said that he had no other thoughts about Miss Ling Jiu, but I don't believe this."

"I have already made concessions and allowed her to marry as a concubine in the future. What else is A Yao dissatisfied with? Could it be that he wants to marry her as the Crown Prince's Consort?"

The last sentence revealed a strong dissatisfaction.

The prince frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "A Yao is mature and opinionated at a young age. You should also stop talking and be careful. If he really likes Miss Ling Jiu, how can he be happy to hear you say that you have bad intentions and that you are of low birth and are a concubine."

The Crown Princess was choked for a moment, and after a while she said: "I'm telling the truth, of course it's not so nice. Miss Ling Jiu is indeed very beautiful, but she is of a low birth. She looks gentle, but in fact she is full of schemes..."

"You just met her for the first time, how do you know she is full of schemes?"

The Crown Prince just found it funny and interrupted the Crown Princess: "I think you have a prejudice against her!"

The Crown Princess raised her eyebrows slightly, and her tone was full of disapproval: "A Yao has only met her a few times, but she can't forget her. It can be seen that she is scheming and has means. Moreover, when she came to ask for help today, she happened to meet Changping."

"You also know Changping's temper. When she sees someone younger and more beautiful than her, she will inevitably find a few unpleasant things to say. She only said a few words, and she coaxed Changping from anger to joy, and even invited her to the Princess's Mansion to attend the Lotus Appreciation Banquet in a few days."

"At such a young age, she has such skills. How can she be an ordinary person."

After saying so much, she expressed nothing more than one meaning.

It was that she didn't like Miss Ling Jiu.

The prince didn't want to argue with the princess over a girl he had never met, so he smiled and said, "Forget it, we'll discuss this later."

When Miss Ling Jiu comes to the mansion in the future, he wants to meet her.
