Chapter 6 Lu Ying knew that she was throwing a tantrum
Lu Ying said indifferently, "What kind of mind does the Crown Princess Consort possess? I have long understood. Saying these words with false sincerity, it's like a weasel wishing a chicken a happy New Year, no good intentions."
Shen Yunxi's pretended expression of grievance instantly froze on her face.
She never expected that she would be compared by the Crown Prince to "a weasel wishing a chicken a happy New Year"!
How does she resemble a weasel?!
Lu Ying glanced at the nearly uncontrollable distortion and twitch on her face, then said, "Weren't you going to listen to the abbot's lecture?"
Shen Yunxi bottled up a bellyful of grievances and anger, yet she dared not ask Lu Ying who that woman actually was.
She could only pretend to adopt a gentle and virtuous posture, and smiled, "Your Highness is right. The abbot at Shengguo Temple only opens a session to deliver sermons once a year. I had been looking forward to it for months. Many people have praised my wisdom and insight, so I must listen carefully this time to the abbot's teachings and strive to make further progress in Buddhist law, bringing honor to Your Highness."
Lu Ying said, "Do you believe those compliments? Do you even understand those Buddhist scriptures?"
Shen Yunxi was thoroughly exposed, and her face turned crimson like dripping blood: "Your Highness's reprimand is justified. By the way, the invitation is still with you, Your Highness..."
The invitation had already been given by Lu Ying to Shen Yinning.
Lu Ying said, "On the way, I met an elderly lady who wanted to listen to the sermon but couldn't get an invitation. Her daughter-in-law cried and begged everywhere. Seeing this, I pitied them and gave the invitation to her."
