Chapter 287 Miss Wang Needs to Be Taken Care Of
The palace maid took Qin Wanru to the palace banquet.
The palace banquet was held in a garden. From the entrance, you could see pots of the hall swallows in full bloom. This was not the time when the hall swallows were in full bloom, but there were still so many hall swallows in different shapes and enchanting colors. In this garden.
Entering inside, we saw tents surrounded by tents, forming a half circle facing a large flower bed in the middle.
The circle around the flower bed is full of potted flowers, and in the middle, there is a large platform. The platform covers the top, with gauze flying around. There happens to be a large rockery on the back, leaving only the front half circle.
The back of the tent was also enclosed, and the small stove inside kept it warm. Even though the front was open and facing the flower bed in the middle, it didn't feel cold.
The sun falls on the flower bed above. With the rockery behind it to block the wind, and the sun directly facing the flower bed, the stage-like place in the flower bed is actually not cold.
This arrangement is very unique.
"Second Miss Qin?" A delicate voice suddenly sounded.
Qin Wanru stopped and looked over. When she saw a delicate woman, there was a trace of ridicule in her eyes. She still couldn't forget this voice.
The mean, sharp, and unreserved contempt seemed to be right in front of him, but now he was full of words, completely different from the person in his memory.
Wang Shengxue's younger sister, Wang Yishu, is said to be a woman who is well-read in poetry. In her previous life, Qin Wanru was calculated to have a marriage with Wang Shengxue. This talented woman who was well-read in poetry had always been very kind to Qin Wanru at first. Yes, but later, when the affair between Ning Xueqing and Wang Shengxue was exposed, she mocked Qin Wanru with all kinds of harsh words.
That mean and sarcastic face made it seem as if Qin Wanru was her father-killing enemy.
Unexpectedly, this time I would see this bitter and mean talented woman again at this time.
This is the female companion Mrs. Xingguo has found for herself. She is really destined.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Qin Wanru looked at Wang Yishu up and down with a blank look on his face.
"My aunt is the wife of Duke Xingguo. My surname is Wang. Didn't she tell Miss Qin Er?" Wang Yishu said timidly. His eyes looked bright and kind, and they were still kind of forced. His timid kindness is very endearing at first glance.
"So you are the lady that Mrs. Xingguo mentioned?" Qin Wanru withdrew her gaze and said lightly, "You want to follow me?"
"Isn't this... what my aunt agreed upon?" Wang Yishu looked a little embarrassed, biting his lip and turning slightly red as if because of Qin Wanru's merciless words.
“Mrs. Wang Yishu is half a head taller than him.
The palace maid who sent Qin Wanru to the place was originally going to retreat, but now she could see that she was looking at her carefully, so she stopped and stopped walking.
Although she was a palace maid next to the Queen Mother, she was dressed like the other palace maids around her, so no one noticed that she was not actually a palace maid here.
In order to be inconspicuous, she even squatted down, picked up a rag on the side, and wiped the flowerpot!
Qin Wanru saw it!
"Second Miss Qin, didn't my aunt ask you to help introduce the eldest princess Ruian?" Wang Yishu said with a flustered face, secretly worried. This matter is completely different from what his aunt said. It doesn't mean that everything has been settled. ?
"This...I'm afraid it really won't work. I don't know the eldest princess Ruian very well!" Qin Wanru looked at Wang Yishu with a troubled expression. The expression on his face looked extremely confused, and his watery eyes blinked. , looking at a loss.
“Mrs.
"Second Miss Qin, my aunt entrusted me to you, right?" Wang Yishu became unhappy and glanced at Yujie, a maid who didn't follow "rules", with a hint of anger in his voice.
In her heart, she originally looked down on Qin Wanru, so she pretended to be cowardly and timid. Now this second Miss Qin was actually worse than herself, and she couldn't control her temper.
Although Wang Yishu's appearance is not the most outstanding, she prides herself on being an educated woman and can be considered a talented woman. Seeing Qin Wanru's useless look, she can't hide the arrogance on her face.
"Miss Wang, you are such an old man, why would you entrust me to your care?" Qin Wanru opened her lips slightly, then raised her head and looked at Wang Yishu.
"Ms. Wang, you look a lot older than my lady, right? You're so old, haven't you ever been to the palace?" Yu Jie answered "not very sensible", with a look of surprise on her face.
The voice of this sentence was not high, but it was enough for the people around to hear. They were standing at the same intersection, and there were many people coming and going. And a large part of this was because Qin Wanru was dressed in amazing clothes, so he paid more attention to her. After a few glances, I heard that there was a dispute between them, and I listened for a while. When I heard what the maid said, a few mocking eyes fell on Wang Yishu.
No matter which way you look at it, Wang Yishuduo looks older than Qin Wanru. It's really funny that the older one calls him the younger one.
The prince's family status was considered high in the past, but later it declined. After that, he almost relied on Duke Xingguo's Palace. Because of his dependence on Duke Xingguo's Palace, even though he fell, he still occasionally dated some ladies in his boudoir. You see, Duke Xingguo also looked at her favorably.
Hence the term "talented woman in the capital".
There were not a few young ladies who knew Wang Yishu in the past, but Wang Yishu's status must not be high. It is true that he did not have the opportunity to attend the palace banquet. I don't know what trick Mrs. Xingguo used to get her this time. At the palace banquet.
Sensing the mocking glances around her, Wang Yishu's face turned red. The maid next to her took a step forward and angrily scolded Yu Jie: "Ladies, how can a maid like you be so unruly!"
"But what I said is the truth!" Yu Jie looked at a loss, as if she hadn't reacted yet, so she responded directly to this sentence.
This confused situation is very similar to Qin Wanru's. The two elephants of the master and the servant are confronting the master and the servant of Wang Yishu. It looks more like the master and the servant of Wang Yishu are bullying them.
Wang Yishu must have experienced a lot of things, so he reacted immediately, stretched out his hand to stop his maid, bit his lip, and his expression softened:
"Second Miss Qin... I'm sorry to bother you. It's my first time coming to the palace. My aunt asked me to come with you. I wonder if it will hinder you?" These words were very gentle and lost the aggressive aura just now.
"This..." Qin Wanru hesitated, then pulled up her skirt and said with a bitter smile: "I was injured when I entered the palace just now. I may sit down for a while and leave. I don't have the energy to see other people now. Miss Wang, please help yourself!"
"Second Miss Qin is injured? Let's see, I knew some medical skills when I was at home!" Wang Yishu's face was filled with concern, and he reached out to take Qin Wanru's hand.
Qin Wanru stepped back, avoided her hand, and shook her head: "I won't bother you, Miss Wang!"
After saying that, he turned sideways and entered the tent next to him, looking like he didn't want to get close to Wang Yishu.
Someone was laughing around. Although it was not loud, the sound was enough for Wang Yishu to hear. Wang Yishu's face immediately turned red, and he clenched the handkerchief tightly, almost losing control.
Secretly gritting his teeth, he followed Qin Wanru into the tent.
Some of the young ladies who were watching the excitement, some of whom happened to have not found a place yet, actually walked in together.
The crowd here dispersed, and the palace maid who was wiping the flowerpot stood up and looked thoughtfully towards the direction Qin Wanru was leaving. She was a confidant sent by the Queen Mother, so she naturally knew that her master treated Qin Wanru differently. of.
Then he paid more attention to Qin Wanru, and unexpectedly he heard some of what he just said.
How could Duke Xingguo's wife be related to General Ningyuan's mansion who had just arrived in Jiangzhou, and she seemed to have a good relationship with Miss Qin Er?
Duke Xingguo has nothing to do with His Highness King Chen, so why does Duke Xingguo’s wife have anything to do with the Qin Mansion? Is it because he knew that His Highness King Chen once went to Jiangzhou and lived in the house of Mr. Qin, who was still General Ningyuan of Jiangzhou at that time? The palace maid felt that the more she thought about it, the more dangerous it became. It was definitely not something that a little palace maid like herself could bear.
He threw away the rag in his hand and hurried to report the matter to the Queen Mother.
The palace is the most sensitive to this kind of thing, and the Queen Mother pays the most attention to His Highness King Chen. Not long ago, something happened to His Highness King Chen. When the accident happened, Miss Qin Er was present, and this Duke Xingguo, who seemed to be out of reach. What role does the lady play in it?
The palace maid didn't dare to think about it, she just felt that it was better to report this matter to the Queen Mother.
She was just a palace maid, no one noticed that she was sent by the Queen Mother, and naturally they would not pay attention to her leaving...
Qin Wanru entered the tent and found that it was quite big inside. The large table could accommodate at least a dozen ladies. At this time, there were only a few people here and there, but most of them were empty.
This place is on the edge, and many ladies are not willing to choose this position. Only when some of the tents in the tent are no longer available will some ladies come over to the edge.
When Qin Wanru came in, there were only five or six young ladies inside. Seeing Qin Wanru come in, they were all amazed. After that, everyone's eyes fell on Qin Wanru's clothes. The wind blew and raised the gauze skirt, which became more and more... It makes people feel like a fairy in the wind.
The eyes of several young ladies lit up, and after looking at each other, their faces showed joy!
After Qin Wanru sat down, a young lady came over and wanted to ask Qin Wanru where the material for this set of clothes came from and which company made the style. Then he saw Wang Yishu walking in, very affectionately. As Qin Wanru sat down, she smiled broadly and said in a very low voice: "Second Miss Qin, my aunt asked me to bring you a gift!"
