Chapter 391
Shangguan Ziling looked at Bei Jingyi and said, "Cousin, haven't you had enough rest recently? You look so tired."
Bei Jingyi avoided looking at him and said, "Ah? Oh, maybe it's because I've been having nightmares in the past few days and I didn't get enough rest."
The little fat boy in the space said: "Master, your cousin is lying."
Shangguan Ziling replied: "Well, I just don't know what happened to my cousin! She didn't tell me, and I can't ask anymore."
Bei Yuanling looked at Bei Jingyi's gloomy eyes, and a surge of anger surged in her heart. She knew that Tan Songqing had always been mean to Bei Jingyi, and sometimes even beat her.
But Bei Jingyi always chooses to be patient and forgive him. The way her cousin looks now is definitely because Tan Songqing is bullying her again.
"Cousin, you too, why do you indulge Tan Songqing again and again?" Bei Yuanling couldn't help but say, "He hangs out in brothels all day long, can you tolerate him, cousin?"
Bei Jingyi's eyes darkened after hearing her words. She lowered her head, was silent for a moment, and then said softly, "No, he hasn't been to the brothel recently."
However, he has been very fond of his concubine in the mansion recently and has not been to her room for many days. However, his mother-in-law still dislikes her for not being able to give birth to children for the Tan family.
Bei Yuanling couldn't help but feel disappointed and angry when she heard this. She knew that Bei Jingyi had deep feelings for Tan Songqing, but she also hoped that Bei Jingyi could be more sober and not be fooled by Tan Songqing's sweet words.
"Cousin, are you still speaking for him?" Bei Yuan Ling snorted coldly, "If you continue like this, he will hurt you to pieces sooner or later."
Bei Jingyi felt a prick in her heart after hearing her words. She knew Bei Yuanling was doing this for her own good, but she didn't want to make Bei Yuanling worry. She raised her head, looked at Bei Yuanling and said firmly, "I know you are doing this for my own good, I understand."
Bei Yuanling looked at her determined eyes and couldn't help feeling helpless and distressed. She knew that Bei Jingyi was a stubborn person and it would be difficult to change her mind once she made a decision. She sighed and patted Bei Jingyi's shoulder gently, "Cousin, I hope you can think about your future carefully and don't let yourself regret it."
Bei Jingyi nodded. She knew that Bei Yuanling's words were out of concern and love.
She also hopes that she can think carefully about her future, but she knows that this is not an easy thing, and she can't let go of her feelings for him.
Shangguan Ziling listened quietly to the conversation between her two cousins, and gradually understood the whole story.
Shangguan Ziling looked at Bei Jingyi's pale and haggard face and couldn't help feeling distressed.
Just then, Bei Jingyi's maid came hurriedly, bowed, and whispered something in Bei Jingyi's ear.
Bei Jingyi's face turned even paler in an instant. She tried to force out a smile and said to Shangguan Ziling, "Cousin, you just came to the Northern Country. I should have spent more time with you, but I have something to do in my house. I have to go back and take care of it first."
Shangguan Ziling looked at her forced smile and felt sad. She gently held Bei Jingyi's hand and said, "Cousin, I'm fine. Just go ahead and do your work!"
Bei Jingyi nodded, then stood up and left in a hurry. Her back looked particularly lonely and helpless.
Shangguan Ziling looked at her receding back and couldn't help feeling worried.
Bei Yuan Ling looked at Shangguan Ziling's worried expression and sighed softly, "Alas! Cousin, you don't know that Tan Songqing is not a good guy. But my eldest cousin loves him so much that the emperor's uncle has a bad temper and has come to teach Tan Songqing a lesson several times. Every time, it was my eldest cousin who protected him. I don't know why my eldest cousin is still so weak. She is always controlled by Tan Songqing. It makes me angry when I see it."
Shangguan Ziling frowned slightly after hearing her words, "Second cousin, maybe my eldest cousin cares too much about this relationship."
Bei Yuanling nodded, "That's true, but Tan Songqing doesn't love my cousin at all. It's just that my cousin is getting deeper and deeper into it and can't figure it out."
Shangguan Ziling was silent for a moment, then said: "Perhaps, we can try to help our cousin face reality and help her get out of this relationship."
After hearing what she said, Bei Yuan Ling shook his head and sighed: "I thought so too, but no matter how I persuaded my cousin, she was unwilling to divorce. The whole Tan family is a mess, and there is no good person in it. I don't know how much grievance my cousin has suffered in the Tan family."
At this time, the maid brought a delicate pastry plate, walked gently in front of them, placed it on the stone table, and bowed, "Princess, cousin."
Bei Yuan Ling tilted her head slightly, glanced at the plate of pastries, then picked up the teacup and took a sip, saying "hmm".
The maid replied cautiously, "Princess, I just came back from serving cakes and saw Princess Yi hurriedly leaving, and she seemed to be crying."
Bei Yuan Ling couldn't help but frown after hearing her words. She put down the teacup in her hand and looked into the distance, with an inexplicable worry in her heart.
"No wonder my cousin looked upset just now and left in a hurry." Bei Yuan Ling murmured to herself, "I don't know what happened in the Tan Mansion to make my cousin cry. It must be something bad."
Shangguan Ziling rolled her eyes and began to think about her eldest cousin. Shangguan Ziling looked at Bei Yuanling and said, "Second cousin, why don't we go out of the palace and see what happened at our eldest cousin's house?" She suggested.
Bei Yuan Ling was stunned for a moment after hearing her words. She propped up her head and looked at Shangguan Ziling sideways, "No, no, my father said that King Ling Xiao is watching you, you can't leave the palace casually." She reminded.
Shangguan Ziling heard her words, she held Beiyuan Ling's hand, and said: "I'm not afraid of King Lingxiao! Let's go and take a look, maybe we can help my cousin!"
"Be good, cousin. You just came to the Northern Kingdom and you don't know the power of King Lingxiao. Even my father is afraid of him. You'd better stay in the palace and don't run around! Otherwise, if something happens to you, your aunt will be very sad, right?"
"Oh, second cousin, let's disguise ourselves and sneak out of the palace! King Lingxiao won't recognize me!"
Bei Yuanling couldn't help but feel hesitant after hearing her words. She knew Shangguan Ziling really cared about Bei Jingyi, but she was also worried that Shangguan Ziling would be in danger.
Bei Yuan Ling pulled back her hand and said, "Ouch!" "Cousin, you don't know how stubborn my cousin is. The emperor's uncle has come to our house several times for this. Every time he went to teach Tan Songqing a lesson, my cousin protected him. Every time my uncle was furious, but he couldn't do anything about my cousin. So! Although my uncle stormed into the Tan residence with a threatening momentum every time, he always left in disgrace. Tell me, isn't it aggrieved?"
