Chapter 287: Miss Wang Who Needed to be Taken Care of

The palace maid brought Qin Wanru to the palace banquet.

The palace banquet was set in a garden. From the entrance, there were pots of Tang Qianyan in full bloom everywhere. This time was not the period when Tang Qianyan should be in full bloom, but here and there were so many Tang Qianyan in varied and beautiful shapes in this garden.

Inside the garden were many tents around, which shaped a half circle. In the center was a big flower terrace.

Around the flower terrace were potted flowers, and in the middle of it, a large platform was packed. The platform was covered with a top, and the light yarns flew around the platform. There happened to be a large rockery at the back of the platform so only the front half of the circle left.

The back of the tents was also enclosed. The small stoves inside were very warm. Although the front doors of the tents were opened to the middle flower terrace, it was not cold inside.

The sunshine fell on the flower terrace directly, with the rockery behind it to shield the wind. The place where the stage was arranged in the flower terrace was actually not cold.

This arrangement was very chic.

“Second Miss Qin?” A delicate voice suddenly sounded.

Qin Wanru stopped and looked at the person who called her. When she saw a delicate woman, she had ridicule in her eyes. She still couldn’t forget her voice.

The contempt that was mean, sharp, and without any room was still in front of her. But now she appeared to desire to talk to her, which was completely different from the one in memory.

Wang Shengxue’s younger sister Wang Yishu was said to be a woman who had read lots of books. In the last life, Qin Wanru was calculated to have a planned marriage with Wang Shengxue. So at first, this female talent who had read lots of books performed well to Qin Wanru. But later, when the relationship between Ning Xueqing and Wang Shengxue was exposed, she ridiculed Qin Wanru with all kinds of sharp words.

Her mean and ridiculed face seemed that she regarded Qin Wanru as a person who had killed her father.

Unexpectedly, this time she would see this bitter and mean talented woman again at this time.

This was the female companion that Madam of Duke Xing had found for her. It was really the fate.

“Excuse me, are you?” Qin Wanru looked at Wang Yishu from the top to the feet and seemed to be blank.

“My aunt is the Madam of Duke Xing. My surname is Wang. Didn’t she tell Second Miss Qin?” Wang Yishu said with a bit of eeriness. Her eyes looked bright and kind, and the kindness had been controlled because of fear. People tended to feel good of her at the first sight.

“You are the Miss that Madam of Duke Xing mentioned?” Qin Wanru held back her gaze and said with light color in her eyes, “Do you want to follow me?”

“This… Isn’t this what my aunt has said?” Wang Yishu’s face was a bit awkward. It seemed that Qin Wanru didn’t give her face. She bit her lip and her face went red.

“Madam of Duke Xing only told me to take you to the palace. Next… I am afraid that I can’t help you. I am not familiar with the palace too!” Qin Wanru seemed to be very vexed. Her watery eyes looked at Wang Yishu, who was taller than her for half of a head.

The palace maid who sent Qin Wanru to the place was originally going to retreat, but at this moment she saw something unusual, so she stood still and didn’t leave.

Although she was the palace maid of Empress Dowager, her wearing was just like that of the palace maid around. So no one discovered that she was actually not the palace maid here.

In order to be less obvious, she even squatted down, picked up a rag on the side and wiped the flower pots!

But Qin Wanru saw her!

“Second Miss Qin, my aunt didn’t say that you would help introduce me to Rui’an Great Elder Princess?” Wang Yishu’s face looked very anxious and she was quite worried in her heart. This thing was completely different from what the aunt said. Didn’t she say that this matter had been fully completed?

“This… I’m afraid that I cannot do that. I am also not very familiar with Rui’an Great Elder Princess!” Qin Wanru looked at Wang Yishu with a vexatious expression and her face seemed that she knew nothing at all. Her watery eyes blinked and she appeared to be in a complete blank.

“The foster daughter of Madam of Duke Xing is First Miss Qi. Why do you always tangle with our Miss!” Yujie snorted unpleasantly.

“Second Miss Qin, has my aunt committed me to your care?” Wang Yishu was unpleasant. She glared at Yujie, the servant girl who didn’t understand “rules” and said with anger in her voice.

In her heart, she looked down upon Qin Wanru originally, so she pretended to be weak. But now she found that this Second Miss Qin was no better than herself, her temper could not be suppressed.

Although Wang Yishu’s appearance was not the best, she praised herself as being more learned than others, so she could be called as a talented woman. Looking at Qin Wanru’s uselessness, the arrogance on her face couldn’t be hidden.

“Miss Wang, you are not young. Why should you be committed to my care?” Qin Wanru said with her small mouth opened slightly and raised her head to look at Wang Yishu.

“Miss Wang, it seems that you are older than our Miss? Since you are so old, haven’t you gone to the palace yet?” Yujie followed her words “innocently”, and looked to be very surprised.

Although her voice was not high, people around them could hear these words. And they also stood at a crossroads. There were many people coming and going, and most of them were attracted by the beautiful clothes of Qin Wanru, so they looked at her for more times. When they heard that there were disputes here, they listened to them more carefully. After hearing the servant girl saying this, they threw some sneak gazes on Wang Yishu.

No matter from what aspect, Wang Yishu looked to be older than Qin Wanru. Now the older asked the younger to take care of her, which was really a joke.

The family status of Wang’s mansion was high in the past, but later the reputation of it was lowered. Finally it almost attached to Duke Xing’s Mansion. Because of its attachment to Duke Xing’s Mansion, although it was declined, she would sometimes interact with other girls from other mansions. It was due to the face of Duke Xing’s Mansion, other girls would not look down upon her.

Therefore, there was her reputation as the talented girl in the capital city.

In the past, many Misses knew Wang Yishu, but her identity was really not high enough to attend the palace banquet held by the palace. This time Madam of Duke Xing might have used some approaches to give her the opportunity to attend this palace banquet.

Feeling the ridicule sight around, Wang Yishu’s face flushed red. Her servant girl on her side stepped forward and rebuked Yujie, “The Misses are talking! How could a servant girl like you know nothing about rules!”

“But what I said was the truth!” Yujie seemed to be in a blank and know nothing about what happened. So she responded directly with such words.

Her awkward situation was quite similar to that of Qin Wanru. The two masters and servants were on the opposite sides. It seemed more like Wang Yishu and her servant bullying Qin Wanru and her servant.

Wang Yishu had experienced many things and she immediately understood the situation. She reached out to stop her servant girl quickly, biting her lips with a softer face.

“Second Miss Qin… I am sorry to bother you. This is my first time to enter the palace and my aunt asks me to be with you. I don’t know whether I bother you or not?” These words were so gentle and she didn’t have the same aggressive attitude before.

“This…” Qin Wanru hesitated, then she pulled her dress and smiled bitterly. “I was injured when I entered the palace. I might take a seat for a while and leave, and I don’t have the strength to meet other people. Miss Wang, please take it easy!”

“Second Miss Qin was hurt? Let me see. I understood something about medicine when I was at home!” There was worry on her face and she reached out her hands to pick up Qin Wanru’s hands.

Qin Wanru stepped back and avoided her hands. She shook her head and said, “I don’t want to bother Miss Wang!”

After saying this she saluted to her and entered the tent on one side. It seemed that she didn’t want to be close to Wang Yishu.

Some people around were laughing. Although their voice was not big, it was big enough to be heard by Wang Yishu. Wang Yishu’s face flushed red immediately and held the handkerchief in her hands tightly. She almost couldn’t control herself.

Secretly biting her teeth, she followed Qin Wanru to enter the tent.

Some Misses looking on this happened to have not found a place, so they followed them into the tent.

The crowd here dissipated, and the palace maid who wiped the flower pots stood up. She looked thoughtfully at the direction of Qin Wanru’s departure. She was the trusted subordinate sent by the Empress Dowager. So naturally she knew that her master treated Qin Wanru differently.

That was why she paid more attention to Qin Wanru. But she didn’t think that she would hear the words just now.

How could Madam of Duke Xing relate to Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion which had just arrived in Jiangzhou? And how could they seem to have a good relationship with Second Miss Qin?

There was no relationship between Duke Xing and Your Highness Prince Chen. Why would Madam of Duke Xing connect with Qin’s Mansion? Could it because they knew that Your Highness Prince Chen had been to Jiangzhou and lived in Qin’s Mansion, the owner of which was the old Jiangzhou Ningyuan Army General The palace maid felt that the more she thought about it, the more dangerous it was. It was not a thing that a small palace maid like her could bear.

She threw the rag in her hands casually and hurriedly went to Empress Dowager to report it.

The palace was the most sensitive to this kind of thing, and the Empress Dowager now paid the most attention to Your Highness Prince Chen. Not long before Your Highness Prince Chen had had accidents and the Second Miss was here when the accidents happened. What role did the Madam of Duke Xing play in this who seemed to be totally unconnected to it?”

The palace maid didn’t dare to think about it. She only felt that she should report this thing to Empress Dowager.

She was just a palace maid, and no one noticed that she was the person sent by the Empress Dowager. So naturally no one would pay attention to her departure…

Qin Wanru entered the tent and found it to be quite big. There were many seats, which could accommodate a dozen of Misses. At that time there were only a few people, so many of the seats were empty.

This tent was on the side, so many Misses were not willing to choose this place. When several of the tents in the middle were full, those Misses would come to the sides.

When Qin Wanru came in, there were only five or six Misses inside. When they saw Qin Wanru coming in, they were all amazed and fell all their eyesights on the clothes of Qin Wanru. When the wind blew, the gauze skirt was raised. It made people feel that Qin Wanru was a fairy in the wind.

The eyes of these Misses were lit up. They looked at each other and their faces were filled with joy!

When Qin Wanru sat down, a Miss closed to her and wanted to ask her where the material of this set of clothes came from and where this style of clothes was made. Just before this they saw Wang Yishu came in and sat next to Qin Wanru affectionately. She smiled and said in an extreme low voice, “Second Miss Qin, my aunt asks me to bring a gift for you!”
