Chapter 460 Be honest with each other
Xiao Yu and his friends waited in the side hall for a while, and then Imperial Tutor He came in. After a few pleasantries, Imperial Tutor He looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Your Highness, the newly served food on the table has not been touched. I believe you already know what happened. In order to avoid trouble for my family, please do not tell anyone."
Xiao Yu raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Of course, Master, don't worry, I don't know anything."
As soon as the two finished talking, Su Lingyue walked in, nodded to Grand Tutor He, and asked, "What are the prince and Grand Tutor talking about?"
Xiao Yu held her hand and smiled: "Nothing, just chatting."
Master He asked, "Did the princess enjoy the banquet? If you have any dissatisfaction, just tell An Ning."
Speaking of the banquet, Su Lingyue's eyes sparkled and she smiled, "Thank you, Master. The dishes and music at today's banquet are great. I'm very happy."
Seeing the two people holding hands, Master He understood and said with a smile, "Your Majesty and Princess are chatting, I will go to the hall to take a look."
After watching Master He leave, the other servants consciously stood further away.
Su Lingyue sat down obediently beside Xiao Yu, looking at him with a smile and some anticipation.
Seeing her hesitate to speak, Xiao Yu smiled and raised his hand to scratch her nose, "What do you want to say, Princess?"
Since Xiao Yu asked, Su Lingyue no longer hesitated and said with a flattering smile: "Before the banquet started today, Jia and her family bullied Wan Ning again. I was so angry that I reprimanded them in public."
Xiao Yu played with his little hands, and teased with a smile: "How did you scold me? Reprimand me again and let me see!"
"I was talking about serious matters, Your Highness, and you are teasing me!" Su Lingyue shook Xiao Yu's hand in dissatisfaction.
Xiao Yu let her sway, with a smile on his face, and deliberately changed the subject, saying, "She scolded me, but they should feel lucky that the princess condescended to scold them."
"Scolding is not the point. I have something important to discuss with the prince."
She told Xiao Yu about her plan with Qin Wan Ning and asked the He family to give Qin Wan Ning justice.
Xiao Yu played with her soft little finger, kneading it gently between his fingers, and said, "Your husband can help Miss Qin, but not today."
"Why?" Su Lingyue blinked her clear eyes and asked in confusion.
Xiao Yu pinched Su Lingyue's small and slender nails and answered slowly: "The He family has a new problem that has not been solved yet. I am afraid I don't have time to deal with Miss Qin's affairs today."
Judging from Xiao Yu's expression, it doesn't seem like a bad thing. Since it is trouble, it must not be a good thing.
Curiosity was tickling her heart again, and Su Lingyue couldn't help it. She quickly held Xiao Yu's hand and asked, "What's the matter?"
Xiao Yu looked at Su Lingyue, whose curiosity was aroused and who looked expectant, and teased her deliberately. "Yue'er, go and say goodbye to Madam Jiang and Miss Qin. I'll tell you in the carriage."
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
Su Lingyue withdrew her hand and took Caiyi and Li Jing back to the ladies' seats. After saying goodbye to Madam Jiang, Jiang Yan and her eldest cousin's wife, she found Qin Wanning and told her what she had learned from Xiao Yu.
“Wan Ning, after the affairs in the mansion are dealt with, if the time is right, you can send someone to inform me and the prince in advance, and we will come to support you.”
"Okay, thank you, Yue'er! I'll contact you when I find the right time."
After Qin Wan Ning finished speaking, she hurriedly left the banquet to confirm what had happened.
After Xiao Yu asked Yan Qing to inform Tutor He and He Zhang, he and Su Lingyue left the He Mansion.
In the carriage, Su Lingyue held Xiao Yu's arm and asked seriously, "My Lord, now that there are no outsiders around, can we tell you?"
Li Jing and Cai Yi sat in the carriage together. Although they were looking at the front of the carriage, they pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
"My nephew lost control of his bowels in public."
"What?" Su Lingyue and Li Jing asked in disbelief.
The two looked at each other. Li Jing realized that he had overstepped his authority and turned his head away, his ears still perked up.
Caiyi just widened her eyes in astonishment and didn't say anything. Then she covered her mouth and laughed.
Xiao Yu turned his head and met Su Lingyue's incredulous gaze, and said lightly: "I heard that he spoke frivolously to Yue'er and Miss Jiang in the garden."
Su Lingyue thought of the medicine Yun Ting had taken from Ling Ling. Looking into Xiao Yu's deep eyes, she was moved. "Did the prince give Xiao Changshi the laxative to protect me?"
Xiao Yu clasped the little hand in his palm and said lightly: "Not all."
Su Lingyue pouted unhappily, "What? I thought the prince was venting his anger on me."
Xiao Yu scratched her nose, "Half of the reason, the other half is to create a rift between the Crown Prince and Master He."
"Teacher He is half of Xiao Changshi's teacher, how could there be any grudge between them?"
Su Lingyue remembered that when her father had not yet lost power, Xiao Changshi listened to her father the most, and at that time he was still very close to the Grand Tutor.
Xiao Yu explained: "The He family has seen the prince in his most embarrassed state. The prince will definitely feel uncomfortable when he sees the He family, and thus the grudge is formed.
He Taifu also understood this. Once the prince gained power, he would definitely get rid of the He family first. He Taifu no longer had any reason to help the prince. "
Su Lingyue nodded: "Without the support of Master He, the Crown Prince will lose his left and right arms. This is the fastest way."
"That's right." Xiao Yu squeezed the Rouyi in his hand and said, "There is one more thing I want to tell Yue'er."
"what's up?"
"If you want to depose the crown prince, you must have a replacement. I choose Xiao Chang'an. So from now on, I will cooperate with Xiao Chang'an, but only temporarily."
"Teacher He has reached a consensus with me. I will help Miss He break off the engagement, and he will secretly help release Xiao Changan from the mansion. So Xiao Changan will be released from house arrest in a while, so don't worry about him and Yue'er."
Su Lingyue did not doubt this point. Xiao Yu would not allow anyone who coveted her to ascend to that position.
"Yes, I know."
"I am very happy that the prince is frank with me."
Su Lingyue leaned on Xiao Yu's shoulder with a smile, feeling very at ease.
Xiao Yu was willing to tell me about his affairs so that I wouldn't have too many thoughts in the future. He was more considerate than before.
"I will go to my uncle's house to explain, so that the Grand Tutor can do things in the court without being obstructed by my uncle and cousin."
Xiao Yu rubbed her cheek with his chin, "Yeah, okay."
Su Lingyue thought about what Xiao Yu had just said, sat up straight again, looked at Xiao Yu and asked: "Did everyone see it? Wouldn't the banquet be in chaos?"
Xiao Yu said: "The prince is lucky. He Wen handled it quickly. Only a few people who were close to him knew about it."
Su Lingyue thought about the scene at that time and couldn't help but cover her nose with a handkerchief, "Then the hall would be filled with... smells..."
"Yes." Xiao Yu gave her a positive answer. "But the Grand Master made up an excuse, and those who were far away didn't know."
Su Lingyue looked at Xiao Yu and remembered that according to the seating arrangements, Xiao Yu must be not far from Xiao Changan.
She put her nose close to Xiao Yu and sniffed. Fortunately, she only smelled the familiar scent of herbs and a faint scent of agarwood.
The faint scent of fruit wine from Su Lingyue lingered in Xiao Yu's nostrils with her breathing.
Xiao Yu looked at Su Lingyue sniffing him like a kitten and couldn't help laughing, "Does my husband smell?"
"No."
Despite this, Su Lingyue was still quite "disdainful" and released her arms from around Xiao Yu, saying, "Your Highness must wash yourself from head to toe tonight, otherwise you are not allowed to go to bed."
Xiao Yu pretended to be displeased and pinched her little face, "Yue'er dislikes your husband?"
Su Lingyue explained in a muffled voice: "No, I dislike your good nephew! After all, we are going to sleep on the same bed at night, so it's better to wash it clean."
After saying that, she raised her lips and smiled at Xiao Yu, "As for the prince, you can still have him after you wash him clean!"
Xiao Yu glanced at Su Lingyue and pinched her soft, sweet little face.
