“Your Majesty, should there be a next life, this concubine wishes to never have met you, and to never see each other for all eternity.”
Yu Jingchen hated her, yet the last thing she did i...
Nan Zhiyun originally intended to stay indoors, but she was just too bored. So, persuaded by Qianxia, she decided to go out for a walk.
She hadn't strolled around the palace in a long time. Winter was slowly ending, and spring would arrive in a couple of days. However, it was still very cold outside, but the sun was out today, so Nan Zhiyun felt alright.
Nan Zhiyun sat in the pavilion in the Imperial Garden. The sun was shining down on her, making her feel warm and comfortable.
But... just as Nan Zhiyun was enjoying this moment, she saw a little girl in the Imperial Garden.
“That’s…” Nan Zhiyun felt it looked familiar.
“It’s the Second Princess,” Qianxia replied.
The Second Princess? Nan Zhiyun was somewhat surprised to run into the Second Princess here. The Second Princess, Yu Wan'er, rarely went out, and even rarely attended banquets, so Nan Zhiyun didn't have a deep impression of her.
The little girl must have fallen. The servants helped her up, but she didn't look well. Why did that maid look so fierce? It seems she hit Yu Wan'er, hitting her arm.
"Xia Yi, go and take a look," Nan Zhiyun said.
Xia Yi bowed and accepted the order, then went to call for help. The other party seemed unaware that there was anyone there, and when they looked over, they saw Nan Zhiyun and appeared somewhat flustered.
It was clear that the other party was unwilling to bring the person over, but no one knew what Xia Yi said, but in the end the palace maid still brought the Second Princess over.
"This servant greets Consort Shu." The palace maid looked somewhat nervous.
"Princess, this is Consort Shu. You should pay your respects to her," a palace maid reminded her, though her tone was rather unfriendly.
The little girl looked thin and frail. Although she was five and a half years old, she was really too thin and frail. She was also a little dirty, probably because she had just fallen. She was timid and looked very scared.
"No need," Nan Zhiyun said to stop her, but as soon as she finished speaking, Yu Wan'er knelt down on the ground: "Wan'er pays her respects to Consort Shu..." Yu Wan'er's voice sounded trembling.
Nan Zhiyun frowned and gave Qianxia a look, which Qianxia immediately understood. She went over and helped the second princess up.
"Get up." Nan Zhiyun glanced at the palace maid.
"Thank you, Consort Shu." The palace maid stood up.
"Your Majesty, the Second Princess is injured," Qianxia suddenly said.
Nan Zhiyun looked over and, sure enough, Yu Wan'er's hand was injured. She must have bumped it when she fell, but she didn't cry.
It's not that she didn't cry, but she was holding it in, or rather, Yu Wan'er dared not cry.
"Your Highness, it's just a minor scrape, nothing serious, it'll be fine soon," the palace maid continued.
Nan Zhiyun frowned subconsciously. Looking at Yu Wan'er's pitiful appearance, she was actually a little angry. Is this how people serve others?
Although Yu Wan'er is the second princess, she is completely different from the eldest princess. The eldest princess is arrogant and domineering, but she is timid and cowardly.
Because Zhao Zhaorong disliked this daughter, she had been expecting a son during her pregnancy, but unexpectedly gave birth to a girl. Even though it was a girl, she suffered greatly because of this child. She nearly died during a premature birth, which damaged her health and made it difficult for her to conceive again.
