Chapter 441 Brainwashing
"What do you like about him?"
An Lingrong didn't want her to answer and continued, "I'm telling you, what you like isn't him as a person, but the value he carries with him, and his ability to satisfy your needs. He can give you status and honor, of course, this is human nature, you don't have to feel embarrassed. Now that you're married, and your sister is the Imperial Consort, these things won't disappear no matter what. So, ask yourself, is there any need to like him anymore?"
These words are to tell Yu Yin that you don't like Prince Guo.
She paused, her tone growing calmer. "As for him not liking you, that's also very simple. He's like that simply because you can't give him the value he desires. But it's not your fault, because you're just like that. He knew clearly before marrying you that you couldn't meet his expectations. If that's the case, then you'll never be able to win his favor."
These words are to tell Yu Yin that Prince Guo doesn't like you and nothing you do will be of any use.
An Lingrong's voice gradually softened, carrying a hint of soothing words: "So, don't worry about whether he likes you or not. This question is far less important than you think. Just let yourself shine with all your heart and soul, no matter how he treats you. In this world, there will always be people who appreciate and love you. Remember, if you bloom, butterflies will come to you."
So you should just live your own lives!
These words left Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang dumbfounded, while Yu Yin had already stood there in a daze, her mind blank, her mouth mechanically repeating: "I don't like him?"
"Yes, you don't like him!" An Lingrong looked her in the eyes and responded firmly, "You liked him before, it was your own obsession. You thought you really liked him and imagined him to be very beautiful in your heart. But what is the reality? Is he really that good? You have been together for so long, and you have come to understand him a little bit. It's time to wake up now!"
Yu Yin's eyes grew confused, as if she was trying to process these words. She lowered her head and murmured softly, "You're right... I was just too persistent."
Seeing this, An Lingrong took Yu Yin's hand and spoke in an increasingly gentle tone, "He is not everything in your life. You can try to let him go slowly, and then you will find that your life will be easier and more colorful."
Feeling the real warmth in her palm, Yu Yin's eyes gradually became firm: "I will try."
Even so, An Lingrong knew that Yu Yin would most likely regret her decision once she returned home. She had to find something else to distract her.
"Of all the people in Yongshou Palace, you're the most capable. You've managed everything around Sister Zhen so neatly. Jinxi and Liuzhu aren't even one-tenth as capable as you. And now you're managing Prince Guo's Mansion very well too. Suye and Caixing can't compare to you in this regard." An Lingrong smiled slightly, her tone tinged with approval. "They're outside the palace now, and the clinic will soon be handed over to the government. But they're both unfamiliar with worldly affairs, so they need someone to take charge. Why don't you go and help them?"
Hearing such praise, Yu Yin immediately became motivated and agreed without thinking: "Okay, your wife is willing."
An Lingrong nodded in satisfaction and added, "Well! Since you've agreed, you must persevere and not let me down again!"
Yu Yin responded solemnly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I have disappointed you once and will never let you down again."
"I believe you." An Lingrong patted the back of her hand gently, with some encouragement in her tone.
After saying this, An Lingrong turned around and made an "OK" gesture to Zhen Huan and Shen Meiyu.
The two of them sighed inwardly: Rong'er's eloquence is so good that he could be a lawyer. He only has theories but no basis, and his arguments are all heart-breaking.
An Lingrong escorted Yu Yin to the door, grabbed her hand, and said, "When you leave the palace, go find Su Ye immediately and do something for the women of the world. That's what's truly meaningful. Men are only fit to be stepping stones on the road to our great cause. Remember that?"
Yu Yin nodded solemnly: "Yes! I will remember it!"
Walking along the long palace path, the afternoon sun shone on her like fine silk threads, illuminating her entire body with a dazzling brilliance. She walked steadily, step by step, as if walking towards a brand new future.
(One more shot.)
Back in the hall, Shen Meizhuang finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
An Lingrong was a little annoyed, frowned and said angrily: "Sister, what are you laughing at!"
"Nothing, nothing." Shen Meizhuang smiled, covering her mouth with her hand, a cunning glint in her eyes. "You scolded her a few days ago, and encouraged her today. You've mastered the art of combining kindness and severity. Looking at Yu Yin's expression just now, even if you sold her out, she'd still say thank you!"
"Then what I said is not right?"
"That's right! Every woman in the palace is like this, and the emperor treats us the same way. It's only because you said it so loudly that it really hits me."
An Lingrong raised her eyebrows, moved closer to Shen Meizhuang, and looked at her with sparkling eyes: "Then am I great?"
"Of course, you are the best." Shen Meizhuang nodded with a smile and reached out to pinch her fair cheek.
The two of them joked for a while and then looked at Zhen Huan, who had been silent.
"Sister Zhen, I'll give you what I just said. You can find out for yourself." An Lingrong rolled her eyes and said to Zhen Huan with a faint smile on her lips.
Zhen Huan was different from Yu Yin. She was a strong person and would not be disturbed by other people's words. She just smiled and nodded thoughtfully.
"Sister Zhen, I was rude the other day. I apologize." An Lingrong said sincerely.
Zhen Huan waved her hand and said with a smile, "Ah~ Do we even need to say this between us? I know that everything you do is so that we can live a stable life. Don't say such things again in the future."
An Lingrong smiled in relief upon hearing this. She gently took Zhen Huan's arm and said softly, "I'm glad you understand, Sister Zhen."
The three of them smiled at each other, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became much more relaxed.
