"Are you the eldest young lady of the Zhao family who is rumored to be intelligent and omnipotent, the future Princess Xuan?" After sizing up, she asked bluntly.

This little girl was really cute. Zhao Ling smiled at her, and said with a slightly joking tone: "Yes, my name is Zhao Ling, but unfortunately I'm not omnipotent. You know, rumors always like to exaggerate, and sometimes they can't be believed."

"Ms. Zhao's words are reasonable." Ning Hua on the other side replied with a slight smile, "Sister Yuechan saw it just now, and everyone in the world has rumored that King Xuan is cold-hearted and unfeeling, but she still takes care of Miss Zhao. Extremely gentle?"

Although Ning Hua was being a little bit ridiculous in her words, Zhao Ling saw that her face was kind and her eyes were clear. She thought that this sentence was just a playful and joking remark between the girls' families, and there was no malicious intent, so she smiled kindly at her. Laughing, not denying it.

It was well known that Meng Yuan treated her well, and she was happy to admit it generously.

Ning Hou was born in the military, and Ning Hua, the daughter of a military general, had a natural and straightforward personality, while Fu Yuechan was also enthusiastic and cheerful. The two saw that Zhao Ling's attitude was sincere, her eyes were calm, and she was generous, without any pretentiousness. 

The two of them immediately fell in love with her. So the three of them hit it off as soon as they met, and they quickly became acquainted. Not long after the banquet started, the three of them became sisters.

"Sister Ling, isn't your sister Zhao Ruo sitting over there? Why is she here too?" Fu Yuechan pointed to the corner of the row opposite and said to Zhao Ling.

Zhao Ruo was here too? Zhao Ling didn't notice. Looking in the direction Fu Yuechan pointed, she saw Zhao Ruo in the corner of the back row where Meng Yuan was sitting. The light-colored top and the lake-blue Luo skirt set off a small face as white as snow, which she felt pity for, but the gaze projected towards Zhao Ling from a distance was obviously malicious.

Zhao Ruo's appearance was not bad. After marrying a woman, she removed the arrogance of being a young girl, but added a bit of forbearance. It must be that her life in Prince Rong's mansion after marriage was unsatisfactory.

Sitting beside her was Meng Yunce, Prince Rong's heir apparent. Meng Yunce's face also looked very gloomy, and occasionally the eyes that were cast towards Zhao Ling also had a strong vicious look.

The couple seemed to have reached a consensus, they both regarded Zhao Ling as a common thorn in their eyes, with expressions that they could not wait to get rid of.

Isn't Meng Yunce suffering from mildew, why was he still in the mood to attend the banquet, and he also brought Zhao Ruo's concubine to the party?

In the DaZhaog Dynasty, the status of concubines was not high. Generally speaking, as concubines, they were not qualified to participate in such banquets.

"Humph." Ning Hua snorted disdainfully, "I robbed my sister's fiancé, and I ran out of money, but in the end I ended up being someone else's concubine, and now I dare to come to this kind of occasion, and I'm really thick-skinned. Yes. It's a shame that I thought she was s smart, but it turned out to be so shameless."

Back then, Zhao Ruo often attended the gatherings of noble daughters, so Ning Hua naturally recognized her. Later, Meng Yunce gave up the engagement with Zhao Ling and asked to marry Zhao Ruo. There was a lot of rumors in the capital. 

Ning Hua thought about everything before, thinking that Zhao Ruo had flirted with Meng Yunce early on. She was a person of temperament, and she couldn't rub the sand in her eyes, so she didn't look down on a shameless person like Zhao Ruo.

The circle of noble ladies in the capital is just that big, so Fu Yuechan naturally knew about this, and her face also showed a look of contempt, and at the same time she felt resentful for Zhao Ling.

"That's right, this Prince Meng is also blind, so he doesn't want to marry such an outstanding beauty as Sister Ling and insists on marrying someone like Zhao Ruo, I really don't know what he thinks!"

it's kind of funny. It seems that the phrase "where there were women there wlre gossip" was an unbreakable truth in ancient and modern Sheijin abroad.

Ning Hua looked at Zhao Ling's half-smiling expression, afraid that she would be sad, so she couldn't help persuading her: "Qianmo, you must not care about this kind of person, as I see it, although King Xuan's legs are disabled, they are the same. He's handsome and handsome, and what is even more commendable is that he had a soft spot for you, and I don't know how many times it's better than that Meng Shizi."

Zhao Ling smiled nonchalantly and said, "Of course I don't care, thank you two for your concern."

In fact, she also had to thank Meng Yunce for breaking off the marriage at that time, so that she and Meng Yuan would later marry her. It was precisely because of this marriage that she and Meng Yuan have reached the present step by step.

Without Meng Yunce's divorce, how would she have the chance to know Meng Yuan, a man who was always arrogant and cold in front of others, but only cared for himself gently, making people both distressed and worried?

Thinking of this, Zhao Ling felt her heart warmed up, and couldn't help but look in the direction where Meng Yuan was, and Meng Yuan also looked at her at this moment.. The eyes of the two met, and although they did not speak, their affection was self-evident.
