Chapter 82 - 81: Shen Yinning, I Want to See You Vie for Favor
Lu Ying’s face was unreadable.
Although he wasn’t skilled in music, he could still discern the quality of the tune.
Bai Shuangshuang’s pipa playing had form but lacked spirit, incomparable to Shen Yinning’s by a great margin.
He said, "So many years have passed, yet you still remember her."
Bai Shuangshuang lowered her head, unconsciously tightening the strings: "I grew up with the lady, how could I not remember her? The lady was raised in luxury, but Gan State is a bitterly cold place. I don’t know how she’s faring now..."
Lu Ying toyed with his thumb ring.
Shen Yinning was exiled to Gan State, yet this woman was contentedly staying in the Eastern Palace as a concubine.
He didn’t believe that she truly cared about Shen Yinning.
He also knew that Shen Yunxi had sent Bai Shuangshuang into the Shen Garden today to vie for favor, hoping she would carry the imperial offspring.
She thought that since Bai Shuangshuang was Shen Yinning’s main maid, mimicking Shen Yinning’s mannerisms, Lu Ying would be inclined to favor her.
But he was well aware that even if Bai Shuangshuang imitated closely, she was not Shen Yinning.
