Chapter 85 Do They Hate Me?

Zhu Feng said, "This matter is known to me. I have other plans, so you don't have to worry about it."

Xu Miaoyin hesitated for a moment, but seeing that he lowered his head to drink tea and had no intention of explaining further, she smiled and said, "I understand."

Zhu Feng took a sip of tea, raised his head, glanced at them, and said, "You all should go down. I want to discuss some important matters with the princess."

When they heard him say this, everyone stood up, saluted, and then left the Wuying Hall.

Nan Yan also followed them out of Wuying Palace. As soon as she closed the door, she saw the faces of Wu Wan and the others. Although they were in the sun, they already showed a hint of coldness.

All of their eyes were fixed on Xia Yunting alone.

Xia Yunting probably had never experienced anything like this before. Even when she was troubled by Du Siyao and others in the East Garden, it was just a small conflict between the concubines. But now, being stared at by these ladies, she inexplicably felt inferior.

Then, Gao Yurong sneered and said, "Sister Yunting seems to be quite capable. His Highness has only been in Jinling for a few days, and you already have a place for your sister by your side."

Xia Yunting stammered, "I—"

Wu Wan walked forward with a smile, stretched out her jade hand and patted her shoulder: "Don't be afraid, sister. With me serving Your Highness, Your Highness won't be so lonely. We should be grateful to you."

As she said this, she chuckled again: "You will have to work harder in the future."

There was an inexplicable chill in her words, which made Xia Yunting shudder, while Wu Wan had already left with Gao Yurong with a sneer.

On the other side, Madam Xinqing and Ruolan just stayed for a moment, didn't say much, and left.

Xia Yunting watched them walk away, feeling a chill run down his spine. Turning around, he saw Nan Yan standing beside him. He immediately came over and said with a mournful look, "Nan Yan, what should I do? Do they—do they hate me?"

Nan Yan was also a little nervous, but she still smiled and comforted her, "How could that be? Ladies—we just arrived today, how could you hate you?"

"But, from what I heard just now, it seemed like they were targeting me."

"No, you and the other ladies will all be the same in the future. Who would target whom? Besides—isn't there His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan?"

Xia Yunting hesitated for a moment, then glanced back at the closed door of Wuying Palace. Then, she looked at Nanyan and said softly, "Nanyan, you are someone who follows His Highness. You must help me. You are my only good sister in this place."

With the scorching sun overhead, Nan Yan felt a little dizzy.

But she still forced a smile and said, "Don't worry, you will be fine."

As she said this, on the other side, Wu Wan, who had already entered Chonghua Palace, frowned and slapped the table, shaking the cups on the table.

"What?!"

Gao Yurong also frowned and said, "How did that thing get close to the prince?"

Just as the two ladies were fuming, Wu Wan's personal maid Qiao Yun walked in and said, "Madam, I just went to inquire about it. It turns out that the thing shamelessly got into the prince's bed while she was on night duty for him."

Upon hearing this, Wu Wan's face became even uglier.

She gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "Another bed-climbing girl!"

After saying that, he added, "By the way, what about the palace maid following the prince? Who is she?"
