High Grade Green Tea Transmigrates into a Pitiful Little Girl - Chapter 23
Hearing what she said, the smile on Consort Xian’s face grew brighter, and she couldn’t help seeing Lin Feilu in a better light. “I didn’t expect the Fifth Princess to be so well-mannered and erudite at such a young age. If Jingyuan were as sensible as you, This Palace could be at ease.”
Lin Feilu looked at her seriously, “Fourth Royal Brother is very kind. He is very, very kind.”
Consort Xian was amused, “You are the first person to praise him like this.”
The Fifth Princess was honest and innocent, smart, and polite. Compared to the Eldest Princess Lin Nianzhi and the Third Princess Lin Xi, she was especially likable. Consort Xian chatted with her for almost two hours, and she grew to like the little girl even more.
Of course, she also didn’t like the Eldest Princess because her birth mother Consort Hui did not get along with her since they were in the East Palace. The two have fought openly and secretly for many years, and they regarded each other as a thorn in their eyes.
But Lin Feilu was different. Her birth mother was just a Noble Lady. It’s one thing if she was just not favored, but she also gave birth to an idiot son, so the Emperor disliked her. No matter what, she would not become a threat.
Consort Xian knew her son very well. He was used to going wild and hated studying. Whatever words of advice she and His Majesty said would go in one ear and out from the other. He was going full speed on the road to becoming a wayward prince.
But he was now willing to accept the book Lin Feilu gave him and cared about it so much, which showed that he liked this little sister. She was also neither spoiled nor cunning. Consort Xian had no worries about their relationship and hoped to use Lin Feilu to persuade her son to improve.
She confessed, “Jingyuan likes to play; he is not intelligent like Xiaolu. Since he is willing to listen to you, try to persuade him to read mode. No need to go far, let him quickly memorize The Analects that you gave him, so he does not waste your sincerity.”
Lin Feilu nodded obediently, “Xiaolu takes note.”
Consort Xian was very satisfied. Before she left, she gave her a lot of things. There were multiple boxes just for the snacks alone. She had Sui Yu lead some palace maids and eunuchs to personally escort her back to Mingyue Palace, shocking Xiao Lan to a loss.
Sui Yu smiled and said, “My Lady had something to say. If Noble Lady Lan is not busy, she should come to visit Changming Hall more often. My Lady loves the Fifth Princess and treats her like her own daughter. If there was anything this palace needs, Noble Lady should just let My Lady know. “
Xiao Lan was very happy and speechless.
After the guests returned, the people left looked at each other and the gifts filled the courtyard. In the end, it was Qing Yan who happily said, “The little princess is indeed blessed with fortune, everyone who sees her couldn’t help but like her.”
The other palaces observed the movements of Changming Palace in the past two days. Everyone was confused and did not understand why Consort Xian suddenly wanted to win over a Noble Lady who had fallen out of favor for many years. Before saying anything else, Mingyue Palace itself was already known to be unlucky.
After hearing the servants talk about it, they later realized that it was because the Fourth Prince and Fifth Princess became friends. The Fourth Prince had always been a troublemaker, causing an uproar in the palace every 2 to 3 days that everyone was already used to it. Nowadays, they rarely heard about his misdemeanor. Some eunuchs have even seen him fishing in the lake center pavilion while reciting The Analects.
They were confused at first, but they finally understood the reason after putting two and two together. It was no wonder Consort Xian took a liking to her. Making the Fourth Prince obedient is not something that ordinary people can do.
Everyone was curious about this Fifth Princess. They didn’t pay much attention to her before. Now that they did, they can often see her in places like the Royal Flower Garden or the Royal Viewing Garden.
Besides being a little smarter, a little cuter, and a little more energetic, there didn’t seem to be anything different from ordinary people?
Then why was the Fourth Prince willing to listen to her?
This eventually became a mystery in the Imperial Harem.
