Chapter 220 A Slap



Xia Zhiliao looked at the sachet, naturally because Nanny Cui said that the young princess also wanted to embroider sachets for Princess Yi Yang and General Chang Yun.

She was not trying to take shortcuts, but was thinking that perhaps this sachet would bring about some turning point.

"When you have finished embroidering, come with me to send it to the princess's palace."

Xia Chen nodded and said, "No matter what, I should personally go to thank the princess."

Xia Zhiliao smiled knowingly, it was more than just a thank you.

Xia Chenshi put extra care into embroidering the sachet, so it took her more time.

Before leaving, Xia Zhiliao still went to the princess's mansion to visit Princess Yi Yang every day.

Xia Zhiliao was too lazy to pay attention to the gossip outside.

How could they know that every time Princess Yi Yang saw her, she was so happy that she said she went there with a smug look on her face. But the fact was that if she didn't go, Princess Yi Yang would be very unhappy.

But today there was a carriage parked in front of the princess's mansion.

Xia Zhiliao has been in the capital for quite a while, but she has no idea what anyone's carriage looks like, as she doesn't have the ability to do so.

Seeing that she took a closer look at the parked carriage, the doorman, Old Feng, said without her asking, "It's the carriage of the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion."

Lu Seyan is here?

"Grandpa Feng, is your leg feeling better?"

"It's all right, thanks to Miss Xia. My injured leg has been hurting for decades. The ointment you gave me is really useful. It feels warm after applying it, and it doesn't hurt even when the weather changes."

"That's good. Here's the prescription. When you run out of medicine, go to the clinic and get it yourself. I've also written down the recipe. Can you read?"

"I know a few of them, Miss Xia... this... how can I be so embarrassed?"

"Grandpa Feng, I've already told you not to be so polite. Just call me Zhiliao from now on."

Old Feng was also a wounded soldier. One of his legs was disabled and he could no longer fight. So Princess Yiyang and her husband kept him at home and let him do some leisurely things.

Xia Zhiliao often came to the princess's mansion, so he became familiar with him. Seeing that he was suffering from leg disease, he took a look at him.

For Xia Zhiliao, it was just a piece of cake, but for Lao Feng, it was a great favor.

"Oh, it's the old lady from the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion and Miss Lu." Old Feng said to Xia Zhiliao.

Xia Zhiliao understood what he meant, "I understand."

The old lady of the Marquis of Jing'an brought Miss Lu to the Princess's Mansion, so this Miss Lu can only be Lu Seyan.

"Grandpa Feng, I'll go in first. I don't care who he is. I just want to cure the princess' illness."

"That's right, Miss Zhiliao, walk slowly."

"Okay!"

When Xia Zhiliao came to the princess's mansion, she felt like she was back home. She greeted everyone along the way and everyone liked her very much.

She did not put on airs just because Princess Yi Yang liked her. She was very kind to the servants and had a sweet mouth. It was hard for anyone not to like her.

"Madame Cui, why are you here?" Xia Zhiliao smiled, "Are you waiting for me?"

Madam Cui pursed her lips and said, "You are right, I am waiting for you. The princess asked me to come and see you. Why haven't you come yet? Don't keep saying you won't come. That won't do."

"Why wouldn't I come? There's food and drink in the princess's mansion, and there's such a nice princess and you, so why wouldn't I come? It's just... hehe, I got up late."

It is not easy for the children to get up early every day and come here.

"The old lady from the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion has brought Miss Lu with her."

"I heard what Grandpa Feng said." Xia Zhiliao looked at her, "Do you need me to step aside for a while? I can go to the garden to take a look."

"That's not the case. I just want to tell you that the princess doesn't treat you as an outsider. I'll take you in."

Xia Zhiliao shook her head. "Forget it. I think flowers are cuter. Besides, they shouldn't dare to bully the princess, right?"

Although the old lady of the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion was a bit overbearing, she still didn't have the courage to do that, otherwise she wouldn't have brought her granddaughter with her.

Xia Zhiliao guessed that they came to apologize.

"Of course, the old lady of the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion brought Miss Lu to visit the princess. After all, Miss Lu's recklessness last time almost caused a disaster."

"Then I won't go, to avoid the awkward meeting." Xia Zhiliao said. She didn't want to show off in front of Lu Seyan, nor did she have any intention of flaunting anything.

She didn't want to steal anyone's limelight, and she had no choice but to do so at the time.

If Lu Seyan hadn't been so smart, she wouldn't have lost face that day.

Unexpectedly, the grandparents and grandchildren of the Lu family came out at this time, and Xia Zhiliao had no time to visit the flowers and plants.

When Lu Seyan saw Xia Zhiliao, the smile on her face froze for a moment, but with so many people watching her, she would not lose her composure.

Xia Zhiliao followed Aunt Cui to pay respects to the old lady.

Old Madam Lu's eyes fell on Xia Zhiliao. No matter how dumb she was, she could guess Xia Zhiliao's identity. "Is this the child?"

"Tsk tsk, you are quite clever despite your young age."

Xia Zhiliao nodded slightly, "Thank you for your compliment."

"Come to think of it, it was all thanks to you that day, otherwise Se Yan would have gotten into big trouble a long time ago. She is so much older than you, but she is not as capable as you."

Xia Zhiliao knew that the old lady was always cruel and ruthless, and she did things in a swift and decisive manner.

Everything she did was for the Hou Mansion. She would do anything and make any sacrifice for the Hou Mansion.

For such a person, who regards the Marquis' Mansion as more important than anything else, how could she be willing to admit that the young lady of their Jing'an Marquis' Mansion is not as good as a country girl like her?

"You are too kind, old lady. I am familiar with the princess and I know how to deal with it."

"Still a humble one." Madam Lu laughed a few times, "Not bad."

She was clearly praising herself, but Xia Zhiliao felt a chill down her spine. Coupled with Lu Seyan's look, Xia Zhiliao felt very uneasy.

Fortunately, Madam Lu did not stay too long, and this was in the princess's mansion, a place she was familiar with, where there were people who loved her.

After leaving the princess's mansion, the grandfather and grandson got on the carriage one after another.

After Lu Seyan sat firmly, a slap hit her in the face, catching her off guard.

“Grandma…Grandmother!”

"Do you know why I hit you?"

Lu Seyan lowered her head and said, "I know."

Madam Lu looked at her coldly, "I hit you to teach you a lesson. Don't act rashly if you are not absolutely sure. Otherwise, not only will you fail, but it will also backfire."

Lu Seyan nodded. She didn't think about the consequences at that time, but now it seems that she was indeed reckless.

"If you had thought it through before doing it, then everything that girl has in the princess's mansion today would be yours."

Madam Lu said in a deep voice: "If you don't want to be a concubine, I will help you, but you have to be good at it yourself. Don't learn from your mother. Those despicable means are not worthy of being in a noble place."

When Mrs. Lu mentioned Bai Huiru, she did not hide her disdain for her at all.
