Chapter 89: Perfunctory

Unable to help but sigh, Princess Shang Yang said: "Let's go. This Miss Jiang is waiting for me specifically. If she doesn't go, her efforts will be in vain."

"yes."

Jiang Ruoting's eyes were slightly red, and she suddenly turned around and bumped into Princess Shangyang. She was slightly startled like a delicate little rabbit, and she hurriedly saluted: "My lord, I was unbecoming, and I didn't notice Her Royal Highness coming."

"It's okay, get up." Princess Shangyang raised her hand gently, "Why is Second Miss Jiang here?"

She was about to cry, as if she had been wronged in some way, and hesitated for a moment before saying: "My daughter is not good at riding and shooting. I am afraid of disturbing my eldest sister and their nature, so I walked here by myself."

But Princess Shangyang had seen too many such tricks in the palace. The concubines in the harem often used this method on her father to fight for favor, but she didn't expect it to be used between women.

"Really?" Princess Shang Yang showed no expression on her face, "I don't know much about riding and shooting, either. I think among our group, only Ruohua knows about it."

Jiang Ruoting nodded, then pursed her lips and said, "Eldest sister... has always liked these things, but Sister Xie and the others... have never been exposed to them."

"However, it's rare for eldest sister to be happy after breaking off the engagement. I am naturally happy to accompany her to play." Jiang Ruoting spoke a little awkwardly, pretending to suppress her unhappiness, "Eldest sister was really depressed in the days after the engagement was broken off. It’s a pity that my daughter is really not good at riding and shooting, so I decided not to join in the fun, so as not to disturb my eldest sister’s nature.”

Princess Shang Yang thinks that she doesn't like to deal with such people. Calm down, she can't be like Jiang Ruohua, who can still smile like a normal person in front of such people.

Firstly, she doesn't like to cause trouble, and secondly, she is a princess after all, so there is no need to talk to such a person like this.

"I see." Princess Shang Yang nodded, "I won't force you to do that. I will go over first."

Princess Shangyang also knew what the identity of the young lady from the aristocratic family who came to contact her was.

Jiang Ruoting was stunned, but she didn't expect Princess Shang Yang to say that. She was speechless for a moment, but she quickly made way: "Your Highness, please."

Strange, strange, why is this happening? For this reason, why was Princess Shangyang unmoved?

Jiang Ruoting couldn't help but grit her teeth and glared at the people on the side, and someone immediately took action.

The man was in ragged clothes, had a sallow complexion, and was holding a lot of heavy objects in his hands. He looked shaky, so he staggered towards Princess Shangyang!

"Your Highness, be careful!"

Jiang Ruoting is not a fool. If Jiang Ruohua can do some things, why can't she do it?

Without saying a word, she walked towards Princess Shang Yang, pushed Princess Shang Yang away, and was severely pressed by a heavy object!

Princess Shang Yang staggered and almost fell down, but luckily Lian Zhi held her up. Jiang Ruoting felt a little bad. After she fell to the ground, she screamed in pain. The servant of Mazhuang joined her. He stood there and looked helpless.

"Hurry and help Miss Jiang to get up." Princess Shang Yang said, "How could such a good person be like this?"

Lian Zhi went over to help the person up. Jiang Ruoting seemed to have her foot twisted, and said pitifully: "Is your highness okay?"

"It's okay." Princess Shang Yang's eyes cleared, with a touch of alienation, "Lian Zhi, go and invite Miss Jiang to come over."

Jiang Ruoting's eyes were still on Princess Shang Yang, but Princess Shang Yang didn't give her any look. She was only supported by a few servants, and the two of them went back to the room and sat down together.

"Your Highness..."

"You are injured, so there is no need to say more." Princess Shang Yang said.

Jiang Ruoting was stunned for a moment, closed her mouth, and kept thinking silently in her heart, asking herself not to think too much, and calling Jiang Ruohua back was just because Zhuangzi belonged to her.

However, the only one who came with Lian Zhi was Jiang Ruohua. She greeted a few people to continue playing, and then came over by herself. Naturally, Lian Zhi didn't show off.

"Miss Jiang, you seem to be at ease with Your Highness, and you have guessed that Your Highness will definitely help you." Lian Zhi suddenly spoke on the road.

Jiang Ruohua smiled: "Miss Lianzhi is a smart person. If you can see things, your Highness can naturally see them."

She has no intention of hiding anything. If she uses it, she uses it. In turn, she doesn't mind being used by Princess Shangyang. There is no conflict between them, so they will not harm each other's interests. If they are honest with each other, they will naturally plan things. It will not be hidden from the other party.

She is also reluctant to touch Jiang Ruoting now, but Princess Shangyang is different.

In the same way, she would also try her best to help Princess Shang Yang in matters such as Concubine Chongqing. Jiang Ruohua always felt that when people get along with each other directly, they are not afraid of the other party's scheming, but are afraid that the other party will hide their thoughts and turn them on herself. How can we get along with each other for a long time if we gain something at the expense of others?

As long as the harmony is not harmed, smart people will get along more harmoniously. There is no need to be accommodating, and it is a pleasure to speak directly.

Lian Zhi didn't say anything anymore. After all, Jiang Ruoting's thoughts were indeed obvious to her. The imperial palace was far bigger and broader than the aristocratic family. A palace maid like her had also developed a vision. The same behavior was not even the slightest difference. , which is a thousand miles away.

Jiang Ruohua may have taken advantage of the princess, but his true honesty and sincerity were something that the opportunistic Jiang Ruoting could never match in her lifetime.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Ruohua was startled when she came in. Seeing Jiang Ruoting's tearful face, she couldn't help but ask, "Second sister, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine." Jiang Ruoting said with grievance, "Fortunately, His Highness is fine, otherwise I would really feel guilty..."

"Ruohua, you just came and you don't know clearly." Princess Shangyang found it a little funny when she heard this, "Just now when I was about to go over, I ran into the second lady. When I chatted for a few words and was about to leave, a servant passed by carrying a heavy object. The second lady was afraid that the man would bump into me, so she took over herself."

Jiang Ruoting pursed her lips slightly, lowered her head and didn't say anything more. She vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she didn't dare to say anything. However, she was very careful when interacting with the people in the manor, and she should never be seen by others.

Jiang Ruohua turned around and pretended to ask Princess Shangyang about her well-being, then turned back and said, "Second sister, you... hey, how could this happen?"

"It's okay." She smiled, but her intuition told Jiang Ruoting that since Princess Shangyang did not respond to her expectations, she'd better let it go. "It's just a minor injury. This servant looks pale and thin, and he moved heavy objects. It's not a big deal if he's unstable for a while. I can just take care of my foot injury."
