Liang Hengshao watched as the few of them giggled with their strong friendship.

He could not get into the conversation at all.

He did not feel good.

However, it was obvious that Shi Qingluo was mingling well with these dandies.

Xi Rui and the others were from noble families, and their temperaments were also somewhat rebellious.

They were usually very xenophobic to outsider, so this was the first time he had seen all of them recognising the same individual together.

And they treated everyone equally.

This was very difficult, but Shi Qingluo did it.

The more he looked at her, the more he felt that she wasn’t simple.

He smiled and asked, “Do you sell the sweaters and trousers you mentioned?”

After being stabbed twice before, he was very smart not to say it directly for Shi Qingluo to give him a set too.

He was afraid that she would refuse, and he still wanted to retain his noble status.

If she was interested in making a new friend, she would definitely offer to give him a set too.

However, Shi Qingluo did not want to have any relationship with the prince at all. “We will be selling it in the capital next time. If you are interested, you can get someone to buy a set and give it a try.”

The emperor was not even forty years old yet.

He was an aspiring emperor with great ambition.

It was in his innate ability to work hard and rule Daliang.

As long as there were no major mishaps, it would not be a problem for him to reign Daliang one or two decades, or even longer.

Naturally, others would be eyeing on the throne, including his sons.

Therefore, there was no need for her to be in the spotlight as it was risky.

If she wanted to climb further, she would just be with the emperor.

This was what she and her young husband thought.

Of course, she had to hug the biggest thigh, why bother so much about these little brats.

This prince was ambitious.

He had begun to rope in his courtiers now.

It was also normal for him to be unwilling to give in to others in the future.

However, she and her husband would definitely not mingle with ambitious princes like this prince.

In any case, they should stay as far away as possible.

That was the right thing to do.

Moreover, not only was there an emperor above them, but also a crown prince ahead of other princes.

It was still uncertain who would be the final victor.

Shi Qingluo felt that the more she jumped around, the more miserable she would fall in the future.

The crown prince was really smart to keep a low profile.

Minimally, he wasn’t blinded by power and authority.

Liang Hengshao sighed, this woman was indeed embarrassing him.

Actually, he already knew the truth.

If he really asked Shi Qingluo for it, she would definitely throw him a line that “I’m not close to you, it’s not appropriate for me to give you.”

Liang Shaoheng was annoyed when he saw how Shi Qingluo wanted nothing more than to stay away from him.

He said perfunctorily, “Sure.”

The rain gradually subsided after more than an hour, and they left the ruined temple and returned to the city in a few carriages.

Xi Rong and Shi Qingluo sat in a carriage.

She said in a low voice, “Luoluo, my second cousin is not a good person. It’s right for you to stay away from him.”

Even though she was a female dandy, she grew up in the palace and knew a lot.

Shi Qingluo smiled and asked, “Why is he not a good person?”

Xi Rong replied, “He has attracted many aristocratic ladies such that they would only marry him and nobody else, but in the end he doesn’t want to marry any of them.

“When they get married, they will still think about him.

“In your words, he is a scumbag.”

Shi Qingluo did not expect the second prince to be like this. “He’s indeed a scumbag.”

However, he was an outstanding scumbag and also held a noble status as a prince.

As long as he deliberately displayed his so-called charm and gentleness, it would be very easy for a woman to fall for him.

Xi Rong said, “He might be trying to seduce you the same way by coming here today.”

Her voice became softer. “He’s ambitious, but it isn’t appropriate for us to be involved in the royal family’s matters.”

She was sincerely treating Shi Qingluo as a friend.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said that last warning.

The princes had tried to rope her in many times, but she turned them down.

Shi Qingluo’s heart warmed. She nodded and smiled. “I understand. We have to be loyal to whoever that shares their benefits with us. Since we are not interested in collaborating with them, why bother?”

Xi Rong knew that her good friend was smart.

She smiled and patted Shi Qingluo on the shoulder.

Then, she changed the topic. “I want two sets of sweaters.”

Shi Qingluo chuckled. “I’ll give you four sets of it.”

She laughed out loud. “Ah, Luoluo, you’re too nice.”

Liang Hengshao, who was sitting in the carriage in front, was speechless when he heard Xi Rong’s devilish laughter.

It seemed that nobody would be interested in marrying her cousin.

Although he didn’t wish to mingle with Xi Rui and the others, he wanted to rope them in.

Xi Rong was favoured by the empress dowager and the emperor, and all the princes wanted to be on good terms with her.

The Xi family was the empress dowager’s maternal family, and Xi Rui was very favoured by the empress dowager.

It would be useful if he could rope them in.

Although the Liang family kept a low profile, they held military power and were highly valued in the imperial court.

In particular, their surname “Liang” was bestowed by the late emperor.

Liang Youxiao was also talented at doing business.

He wanted to rope in others to help him generate profits.

Fei Yuzhe’s family were mainly qingliu officials.

Not only were they highly valued in the imperial court, but they also had a considerable reputation among the scholars.

He heard that Old Master Fei wanted to nurture Fei Yuzhe, so he was also worthy of being roped in.

From what he had seen just now, he could tell that these dandies were instead focusing their attention on Shi Qingluo, which made him very surprised.

If he could get hold of Shi Qingluo, he might be able to win the hearts of other dandies.

He shook his head with a heavy heart.

It was a pity that his plan had failed today .

When Xi Rui and the others in the carriage heard this, they could not help but curse Xi Rong together.

This female bully used his identity as a female to receive some benefits from Shi Qingluo again. Hmph.

At the Eastern palace of the capital city.

Mo Qingling was playing chess with a man with a cold and stern appearance.

A moment later, he said, “I lost. Your chess skills have improved again.”

Liang Hengchen’s cold face was stained with a smile. “I hope that the next time you come back, your chess skills will be on par with mine.”

Both of them were similarly cold and stern, but Liang Hengchen had a superior temperament and did not reveal his skills completely.

Mo Qingling, on the other hand, displayed his skills calmly.

At this time, a man in black knocked on the door and came in.

Although Mo Qingling was there, he still shared what he had found out today.

This was the crown prince’s order , there wasn’t a need for him to hide it in front of Young Master Mo.

Hearing that the second prince actually went to pretend to be injured by an assassination to get close to Shi Qingluo, Mo Qingling was stunned for a moment.

Liang Hengchen waved his hand, and the man in black quickly retreated.

He looked at Mo Qingling and asked, “Are you very surprised?”

Mo Qingling nodded. “I really didn’t expect that the second prince would come up with new ideas to try to win someone over.”

Liang Hengshao sneered. “He likes to use his seductive tricks. It’s always been very useful.

“I reckon that the third prince will suffer a great loss after he uses this trick very soon.”

1

However, he definitely would not remind him.

He would let him fight with the second prince slowly. It would be more exciting for him to watch the show.

He said playfully, “However, Shi Qingluo’s method really surprised me.”

In the past, his second older brother had always been successful when he used this trick on women.

Mo Qingling said, “Shi Qingluo is not an ordinary woman. Moreover, she has a very good relationship with Xiao Hanzheng. I’m afraid the second prince will be disappointed.”

He was against such tricks and disliked how the second prince seduced others.

Liang Hengchen smiled and said, “I rarely hear you praise others. If there’s a chance, I want to meet Xiao Hanzheng and his wife.

“If you’re on good terms with them now, my brothers of royal status probably won’t be able to sit still.”

Mo Qingling was his cousin and also one of the people he trusted.

They were already destined to be together because of their family status, and Mo Qingling had never concealed his support for him.

Mo Qingling couldn’t help but laugh. “Xiao Hanzheng and his wife aren’t that easy to rope in. With their intelligence and wisdom, they won’t side with us.”

Liang Hengshao played with the chess piece in his hand and said casually, “It’s fine if they don’t side with us.”

He liked smart people.
