Medical Princess

Chapter 1129 Feeling Deeply Wronged! A Man Robbed the Woman.

In the private room, nobody else made a sound, and they could only hear E’niang sobbing and crying. Shao Wanru watched her, her watery eyes quite serene.

E’niang had been crying bitterly. Finally, she sensed that the private room was strangely quiet. Panicked, she looked up at Shao Wanru and pleaded in a sad voice, “Fifth Miss… ”

“I know about your request. You can go back. Thank you for taking my mother’s letter to me!” Shao Wanru said.

“Get up first!” Yujie reached out to help E’niang up.

“No, I…” E’niang still wanted to say something, but Yujie and Qing’er stood on each side of her and forced her to move to the door.

“You are Marquis Xing’s mistress. If you try to stir up trouble, my master will have to go to Marquis Xing!” When Yujie pushed E’niang out of the door, her low voice rang in E’niang’s ears.

Her threat immediately dispelled E’niang’s idea of making a scene at the door. As E’niang looked at the tightly closed door, a thousand thoughts came to her mind. Eventually, she wiped away her tears and stood at the door of the private room, neither crying nor making trouble. It seemed as if she were just an ordinary servant waiting for her master’s call at the door.

Some masters who brought many servants would leave one guarding outside the door. Thus, it was not strange for her to stand there like this. This time, to approach Shao Wanru, E’niang chose good-quality but not gorgeous clothes. Some of the capable servants of aristocratic families were also dressed this way.

She couldn’t leave like this. Meanwhile, she couldn’t make Princess Chen feel annoyed.

“My Lady, she’s still outside the door!” Yujie stood at the door and listened for a while, but she didn’t hear E’niang walk away. Knowing that she was still there, she showed a trace of disgust on her face. She loathed E’niang.

Perhaps, the first impression was the strongest. Even though Yujie learned she had suffered many hardships, she always had a feeling that E’niang was not trustworthy. Fortunately, her master didn’t accept E’niang. No matter what, this woman didn’t look like a good person.

As a servant girl, she became the mistress of her master’s brother-in-law. There would be many remarks unpleasant to the ear. Besides, she would ruin her master’s reputation.

“Let her stay there!” Shao Wanru slightly pursed her cherry lips and said with a trace of sharpness across her eyes.

“How about I drive her away? She is standing at our door. Others might think she is a servant of our mansion!” Qing’er suggested in a rage. She didn’t like E’niang either.

She couldn’t bear to see E’niang’s coquettish look.

“Don’t worry about her!” Shao Wanru shook her head and said, “Well, I don’t want to think about if she is honest. She doesn’t intend to stop and wants to attract others’ attention to force me to agree with her. You know what, I hope that some people would suspect her and investigate Shao Jing’s case!”

E’niang was said to be her mother’s most loyal servant girl. She had been protecting her master closely. Even in her mother’s last letter, she appreciated her loyalty. As the daughter, Shao Wanru should try her best to support such a servant girl. Moreover, E’niang’s rival was Madam Jiang. In any case, Shao Wanru was supposed to help E’niang.

However, Shao Wanru insisted on not doing this favor and wondered how E’niang and Shao Jing would deal with it!

She would never believe what E’niang had said. She used some of the facts but didn’t tell the whole story. Actually, Shao Wanru had found something and made some guesses in her heart after her rebirth. Besides, with the information from Yan Xi, she confirmed some causes and effects.

At this time, she would not easily believe whatever E’niang said. She was more willing to accept the information she had learned by herself and the facts that she had witnessed in her previous life.

She was weak and useless in her previous life, so E’niang didn’t go to her. Nevertheless, E’niang eventually married into the Marquis Xing’s Mansion, which enraged Shao Yanru, who was in the Palace. But so what? E’niang still managed to marry Marquis Xing and became Madam Jiang’s vigorous opponent.

In this life, Shao Wanru achieved her current high status by advancing gradually and entrenching herself at every step, plus the help of Chu Liuchen. Therefore, E’niang cast her eyes on her!

There was one thing that she couldn’t figure out. In her previous life, she didn’t seem to hear that a new Miss had moved into the Marquis Xing’s Mansion. Even before she died, only the same few Misses were in the mansion. Then, how could this illegitimate daughter appear all of a sudden?

In her last life, E’niang had successfully married into the Marquis Xing’s Mansion when Madam Jiang was still in power. It could be seen that this woman was not easy to deal with. So, since she had entered the Marquis Xing’s Mansion, how could her daughter not move into the mansion with her? Moreover, she was just an illegitimate daughter. Madam Jiang wouldn’t recognize an illegitimate son but would accept an illegitimate daughter. In particular, the mother of this illegitimate daughter married into the mansion open and aboveboard.

Shao Wanru was deeply concerned about this matter in her mind. “Is there something wrong with this illegitimate daughter?

“In the previous life, they didn’t have such an illegitimate daughter. Many changes have taken place in this life, so they gave birth to a daughter. Is that so? Was it the idea of E’niang or Shao Jing?”

There were thousands of speculations in her heart, and the truth was beginning to emerge. However, when she thought about it carefully, she couldn’t approach and find out the truth.

While she was lost in thought, a burst of noise suddenly came from downstairs. Yujie looked out of the window and said hurriedly, “My Lady, Prince Yue has left the city gate!”

Putting away all her thoughts, Shao Wanru walked to the window and looked out. As expected, she saw two teams of people with horses coming out of the city. In a great hurry, the people on both sides made way for them. Chu Liuyue, tall and handsome, was on the horse at the forefront.

When they arrived at the city gate, the horses stood still, and the two rows of guards behind them also pulled the reins and stopped on the spot. Some people in the crowd on both sides couldn’t help cheering.

Women were screaming with excitement. “Prince Yue!” “Prince Yue!” “He is Prince Yue, His Royal Highness!”

The descendants of the Chu royal family were all good-looking, and Chu Liuyue had an air of dignity around him. When he stood at the city gate, countless women fell for him instantly.

Apart from these Young Madams from aristocratic families, some ordinary girls also gazed excitedly at Prince Yue, riding on the horse, with pure adoration.

Prince Yue was handsome and likely to be the future crown prince of the East Palace. A man with such a high status and outstanding appearance was indeed attractive.

The city gate was opened wide, and people came from the opposite side.

A gorgeous carriage was at the front of the procession. Through the half-closed gauze curtain, a man in black clothes could be vaguely seen leaning lazily inside. There were cloud and water patterns with dragon claws partly hidden and partly visible on his thick black clothes. He wore the official imperial robe for princes, which was the same as Chu Liuyue’s. But somehow, people felt he looked more composed and distinguished than Chu Liuyue in the robe.

A breeze slightly lifted the gauze curtain, revealing his exceedingly handsome face. Immediately, he attracted everyone’s attention.

Chu Liuchen rarely appeared in public like this. Few civilians in the capital city had ever seen Prince Chen, who was said to be sick and weak. In the past, they had only heard that Prince Chen was in poor health and could hardly go outside. It was rumored that Prince Chen was dying, so was this man Prince Chen for real?

He looked healthy and fit!

“Is he Prince Chen?”

“It’s Prince Chen!”

“He is Prince Chen!” His appearance caused a shocking commotion among the crowd — Prince Chen even overshadowed the two princesses behind them. Everyone seemed to have forgotten that they originally came here to see the beautiful princesses from the Xu State. Screaming citizens vied to get closer to Prince Chen, only to take a look at him.

Everyone seeing him would nod inwardly with admiration. Prince Chen looked fine with a healthy and hearty look, and his imposing manner was even more overwhelming than that of Prince Yue, the First Prince. But there were always rumors saying that he was dying. Why?

Hearsay about the royal family was indeed not unreliable.

People said Prince Chen had rushed back to the Palace to celebrate the Empress Dowager’s birthday in time. Prince Chen had traveled thousands of miles and finally entered the city on her birthday. Not to mention anything else, it was impossible to make it without a strong body. It seemed that Prince Chen was perfectly healthy!

Against all expectations, everyone was most interested in Prince Chen and could hardly move their eyes away from him.

Princess Yuyan was so outraged in the carriage behind that her face turned livid. Before entering the capital city today, she was determined to overpower the whole capital city with her peerless beauty. Thus, Princess Yuyan woke up early in the morning and dressed up to show off. In particular, she knew Prince Yue would come to pick them up.

To prevent Princess Yutao from stealing her thunder, she even sent someone to check Princess Yutao’s clothes early. Knowing that Princess Yutao didn’t make much effort to fluff up her feathers, she breathed a sigh of relief.

To her dismay, she didn’t accomplish the purpose desired. Sure enough, Princess Yutao didn’t outshine her, but Chu Liuchen stole the show. Princess Yuyan felt deeply wronged in her heart. As a woman, she was not as beautiful as Chu Liuchen, who was a man. She had never admitted it, but now she had to accept the truth: Chu Liuchen had an enchanting face, which could bewitch both men and women.

The two sides met at the gate of the city. Chu Liuyue neatly jumped out of the horse, but Chu Liuchen didn’t come out of his carriage. He asked Qin Huaiyong and Chu Qing to ensure a smooth transfer of the documents from both sides. Also, he called the messengers from the Xu State over. These people completed all the procedures. During the process, Chu Liuchen still didn’t walk out of the carriage or leave. He just waited aside.

His beautiful eyes lifted, and he happened to see Shao Wanru standing at the window. He slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

Of course, Shao Wanru also saw Chu Liuchen. His carriage facing the window was parked in a perfect position. When the gauze curtain was raised a little, their eyes met silently.

Chu Liuchen opened his mouth and seemed to have said something to Shao Wanru. In response, Shao Wanru smiled at him and nodded.

Infanta Yuan’an, in the private room opposite, saw Shao Wanru smile. Then she looked down at the gate of the city. A great crowd had gathered there, so she couldn’t see the person Shao Wanru was smiling at.

...

“Could it be Prince Chen?” Inexplicably, Infanta Yuan’an didn’t think so. “It couldn’t be Prince Yue, right?” She thoughtfully shifted her eyes to a place outside the crowd. That place happened to be on her side but was not right under her window. From her position, she could see that place clearly. Zhang Qilan and Luo Xiaowan were standing together. Several servant girls surrounded them to prevent the crowd from disturbing them.

Zhang Qilan raised her head and looked at the window opposite Infanta Yuan’an, Shao Wanru was standing there, with no trace of a smile on her face. After watching Shao Wanru for a while, she transferred her gaze to Prince Yue in the crowd. Zhang Qilan seemed to be a little angry. Coincidentally, Prince Yue looked up, but no one knew whom he was looking at. Seeing that, Zhang Qilan got so obviously provoked that she turned around and left immediately. Luo Xiaowan hurriedly chased after her.

A knowing smile appeared on her lips. Infanta Yuan’an knew her previous words worked…
