"I never thought she could accomplish anything! If it weren't for being a dead horse, I would really be too lazy to pay attention to her! But now that I think about it, I still feel that many people can still have more power? Alas...

…There’s nothing we can do!”

Xixiang quickly took over and said: "Actually, Princess Lin is not stupid, she just suffered too little!"

Xia Ruyan took another sip of tea, but her expression was calm.

"It is said that Princess Dongling is not a stupid character. How can she teach such a thing? In my opinion, Xia Lingyue is just the same. She is not much better than her. But recently, I always feel that she has gone to the private sector and returned.

It's as if she has become a completely different person. Could it be that someone borrowed her body and sneaked into the palace?"

Xia Ruyan secretly stroked the black hair beside her ears and temples. The cold auricles already made her uncomfortable.

"I think the Crown Princess need not worry too much. After all, Xia Lingyue is in a position with no name or status. No matter how powerful she is, as long as she has no status, she will have no real power. After all, she will not be tough in speaking and doing things without real power.

She has no weight in the palace, so I think the Crown Princess can rest assured! After all, for the moment, she won’t have much effect on you as a threat!"

Although Xixiang's words sounded reasonable, Xia Ruyan interrupted her as soon as she raised her hand.

"That's not the case. The key is that there are countless methods that don't necessarily require you to go into battle in person! For example, killing someone with a borrowed knife, working for a tiger, colluding with others, scheming to knock the mountain out of the tiger, etc. These are all things that are impossible to guard against! Sometimes they are even completely unexpected.

And he was caught off guard!"

Xixiang's face darkened sadly and she stopped talking.

"Actually, Yao Xianxiu's failure was also a strategy, a strategy called taking the unexpected and taking advantage of it!"

Although Xia Ruyan's words made Xixiang confused, she still waited quietly aside and said nothing rashly.

"Although her success will not be to win for a while, it is likely to be to win for the rest of her life. Some people will call this shrewdness a bitter trick, while others will think it is a blessing in disguise! In fact, the driving force behind this matter

He is a truly powerful character with far-sightedness!”

When Xixiang heard this, her eyes suddenly widened.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing her confused look, Xia Ruyan looked indifferent and smiled mysteriously: "Actually, Yao Xianxiu is not necessarily the most pitiful person. What is the most pitiful thing for a woman?"

"have no idea!"

Xixiang shook her head blankly, and then she thought again: "Does it mean that Princess Lin has a detached temperament? She takes pain as enjoyment?"

Xia Ruyan suddenly smiled: "Do you know what is most important to a woman?"

Xixiang still shook her head: "Princess, please forgive me! I am stupid and can't think of what is most important to a woman."

"For a woman, the most important thing is her husband's wholehearted love and care, and the most precious promise her sweetheart has ever given!"

Xixiang nodded as if suddenly enlightened.

"Understood?"

"Still don't understand!"

Seeing her dull expression, Xia Ruyan couldn't help but sigh sadly.

"That's right, not understanding is wisdom!"

Xixiang was stunned again: "Has ignorance become wisdom again?"

She patted her ears, trying to make sure she heard correctly.

"Princess, your wisdom is so unfathomable! This servant is so confused after hearing this!"

She rubbed her face and said, "No wonder you can become the Crown Princess. This slave is also in admiration and kneels down!"

Xia Ruyan pursed her lips and smiled, but her expression turned serious.

"These are the principles of the impermanence of division and union. They have no fixed form in the first place, so the words themselves are meaningless. It's just that you need to understand the hidden meaning!"

While the master and servant were talking, Yun Yao had already come up from the stone staircase of the palace building, looking a little pale.

"Princess, the food and wine you requested have been prepared for you! Do you want to use them now?"

Xia Ruyan raised her sleeves: "Let's serve!"

"yes!"

Then, she took out the wine and food one by one from the rattan basket on her arm, and placed them in half on the stone table in front of her.

"Okay! Your food and drinks have been served."

"Get down!"

"yes!"

Seeing Yunyao leaving in a state of weakness, Xixiang frowned.

"...Why does Yunyao always look so weak every time? But she looks a little better, and Yingxu is even more frail. Every time she sees the wind outside,

If the wind was blowing a little harder, she would hug the beams and pillars tightly, not to mention that if the wind was blowing a little bit stronger, it would blow her away!"

Xia Ruyan covered her mouth and smiled, remaining silent.

"Princess, you are so wise, please answer your questions!"

Xixiang leaned forward and pretended to be close. In fact, this was indeed a question that she had been wondering about for a long time.

"Well..."

Xia Ruyan thought for a moment before she spoke, and she still smiled and said: "Do you think everyone's life is as lucky as yours? In fact, there are so many poor people in the world! Not just a weak one, even if he is dead

There are a lot of people there too!”

Xixiang nodded, frowned and thought for a moment: "This is indeed true! How many people who are maids can be happy? It's good to be alive!"

Xia Ruyan picked up the teapot and poured another cup: "That's right! There are so many sad things in the world, how can they be summed up in one sentence because of human nature?"

"Yes... yes..."

The girl knelt on the ground and kowtowed as if pounding garlic. She was so frightened that she lost her soul.

"Well! What a handsome, smart and lovely person you are!"

Xia Ruyan suddenly smiled kindly at her.

"Oh... Thank you very much for the compliment, Crown Princess! Thank you for the compliment, Crown Princess!"

Her expression looked much more relaxed than before.

"What a smart girl! What a wonderful girl!"

"Princess, if you don't have any instructions, I will leave now..."

She looked timid and trembling as she spoke.

"Well! Go ahead!"

"Thank you, Crown Princess......"

Before she finished speaking, the girl ran out of the threshold as if running for her life.

………………………………………………………………

Xia Ruyan's expression suddenly dropped, and her brows were covered with clouds, making her look particularly scary.

"elder sister…………"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yao Xianxiu couldn't help but a sweeping whirlwind swirled in her mind. She looked panicked and finally thought of an excuse.

"But after all, Prince Lin is my husband after all. He has done so many things that I'm sorry for. I also know that there is no initiator behind him, so I have always been unwilling to do so."

As Yao Xianxiu spoke, she secretly scanned Xia Ruyan's expression. Seeing that her expression gradually improved a little, she breathed a sigh of relief silently.

"Hey! Sister, you think I'll leave first and won't bother you anymore. You must be tired now! After all, it's not easy to be pregnant, so I'll leave now and wait a moment.

If there is another chance, let's catch up and reminisce about the past, and you can just go and practice some training! How about that?"

Yao Xianxiu stood up and left her seat as she spoke, and walked several steps towards the stone steps without further explanation.

"But………………"

Xia Ruyan was instantly panicked, but although she opened her mouth, she quickly stopped talking.

"Sister, don't worry too much. I will take care of myself! I hope you can rest well and don't worry too much!"

After saying that, she quickly walked down the stone steps of the palace building step by step, and soon disappeared at the entrance of the palace building.

"Hmph! My wings haven't hardened yet! You're going to dare to rebel against me. I'm afraid you're tired of living!"

Xia Ruyan slapped the table hard, her face suddenly darkened......
