Chapter 359 Fainting with blood
The two girls walked away talking and laughing.
Shen Wan frowned.
Did Wei Mingzhu and Song Nanyue have a fight?
The Jade Pavilion was not far ahead, and Wei Mingzhu should be there. Afraid that Wei Mingzhu would run into Song Nanyue and suffer, Shen Wan and Ye Caiwei walked towards the Jade Pavilion.
From a distance, Song Nanyue was seen coming out, with a furious look on his face and his footsteps sometimes heavy and sometimes light. When he saw Chen Wan, he was even more furious. If looks could kill, Chen Wan would have been covered in blood on the spot.
Both are legitimate daughters of the Duke's Mansion. Song Nanyue is also the great-grandniece of the current empress dowager and the niece of the current queen. Her status is much more noble than Shen Wan's. In the end, she did not marry as well as Shen Wan and became a laughing stock in Kyoto. Song Nanyue even wanted to skin Shen Wan alive.
Song Nanyan probably didn’t get the upper hand from Wei Mingzhu, and was about to come this way, but when she saw Shen Wan, she went directly to the other side.
It just so happened that Shen Wan didn't want to meet her, so it was best to avoid her.
Shen Wan and Ye Caiwei entered the Jade Pavilion and went straight to the second floor, but they didn't see Wei Mingzhu, so they asked a waiter, "Is Miss Wei Si not here?"
"I'm here..."
Wei Mingzhu's voice came.
Shen Wan turned around and saw Wei Mingzhu standing there waving at her through the bead curtain.
Shen Wan walked over and found Ling Xue, the daughter of the Right Prime Minister, sitting there with a pale face. A maid was bandaging her hand with an embroidered handkerchief.
Shen Wan asked, "What happened to Miss Ling?"
Ling Xue shook her head, "I'm fine, I just feel a little dizzy from the blood."
Wei Mingzhu said, "She was implicated by me..."
From now on, she must check the almanac before going out.
I went out shopping happily today, but unfortunately I ran into Song Nanyue. She was close to Shen Wan, and Song Nanyue had disliked her before. She even used her to plot against Shen Wan, causing her to be stung half to death by a wasp, and also ran into the annoying Prince of Yuzhang, becoming a laughing stock in Kyoto.
Wei Mingzhu and Song Nanyue were enemies when they met, and they were extremely unhappy. When they ran into each other, they were like, "You don't let me go, and I don't let you go."
Song Nanyue was used to being flattered, and because of Shen Wan, she took her anger out on Wei Mingzhu, poking at her wounds and making fun of her. She said that Prince Yuzhang would rather be stung and thrown into the water than have physical contact with her and marry her.
Wei Mingzhu is someone who doesn't make enemies with anyone unless they provoke her, but if anyone does, she won't be bullied.
She, Wei Mingzhu, was not someone who could be easily laughed at. "It's better for you not to marry the Prince of Yuzhang than to marry a bastard of unknown origin and be kicked out of the Prince of Jingbei's mansion."
Both of them stabbed each other in the heart with their white knives, causing fatal wounds.
Those watching the excitement upstairs didn't dare to breathe.
Wei Mingzhu and Song Nanyue both had high social status, and there were few people in Kyoto who were more noble than them. Most people only dared to laugh at them behind their backs and talk about them in a low voice, but would never dare to expose their wounds so openly.
Song Nanyan was so angry that her lips were shaking. As someone who was used to being praised, how could she tolerate Wei Mingzhu's ridicule? She was so angry that she didn't care about anything else.
Song Nanyue pushed Wei Mingzhu angrily. Ling Xue, the eldest daughter of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, happened to come over and tried to mediate. Song Nanyue pushed Wei Mingzhu, who staggered back a few steps and bumped into Ling Xue, causing her to fall onto the counter. Her hand was scratched by the counter and the skin was broken.
Ling Xue had a problem of fainting when she saw blood. When she saw the blood on her hands, she felt dizzy. If the maid had not supported her in time, she would have fainted.
Even as she sat there, she didn't dare to look at the maid bandaging her wound.
Wei Mingzhu was a little worried, "Do you really not need to see a doctor?"
Ling Xue shook her head. "There's no point seeing a doctor for the blood-sickness problem. It will be fine after a while."
"You guys go pick out the jewelry, you don't have to accompany me."
Wei Mingzhu shook her head. "I've caused you such bad luck, how could I just abandon you? The Crown Princess of Jingbei is with Madam Zhou. I was planning to go to the Jingbei Palace to look for her tomorrow."
Shen Wan smiled and said, "I'll prepare tea and snacks tomorrow and wait for you to come find me."
Then he turned to Ling Xue and said, "It's more fun when there are more people. Miss Ling, can you come too?"
Ling Xue was slightly stunned.
She had no friendship with Wei Mingzhu or Shen Wan, and she didn't expect Shen Wan to invite her.
For some unknown reason, Ling Xue nodded.
Wei Mingzhu was even happier. She nodded her head, and the South Pearl earrings on her ears drew a perfect arc.
Since Chen Wan and Ye Caiwei entered the Jade Pavilion, they had to be picky. Chen Wan was not short of money, and Ye Caiwei was not short of money either.
The Ye family gave her tens of thousands of taels as a dowry, and Chen Ji and Yun Shi prepared the dowry for their daughter's marriage. Yun Shi also sent 36 loads of dowry as an addition, and Old Taifu Lin also sent 18 loads.
After Shen Ji agreed to let Ye Caiwei get married, he asked Master Zhou to accompany Ye Caiwei back to the Ye family in Junzhou. They were about to set off in the next few days.
It will take at least a month to come back after this trip.
The two cousins had a great time shopping. After about an hour, it was time to go back home for lunch, so Xie Jingyu and Young Master Zhou came to pick them up.
There are many young ladies in the Jingbei Palace. In addition to Xie Zhihuan who was punished to reflect in the Buddhist temple, there are also Xie Zhirou and Xie Zhiqing. However, Chen Wan has never gotten along with them. He is usually only close to Xie Zhiyao from the fourth room. Xie Zhiyao comes to Zhaolanxuan every day, and Chen Wan is very bored staying in the palace.
She was happy that Wei Mingzhu and Ling Xue could come. Before going to bed at night, she reminded Shanhu not to forget to ask the kitchen to prepare snacks tomorrow.
The next day, the two of them came as expected, and what a coincidence, they came together.
Shen Wan went to greet them and asked with a smile, "Did you make an appointment?"
Wei Mingzhu smiled and said, "We forgot to arrange a time, but it just happened that we got here together."
Chen Wan looked at Ling Xue's hand and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
Ling Xue said, "It was just a little skin breakage, it was fine yesterday."
But her problem of fainting when she was afraid of blood was really embarrassing. She would faint like that when she got a little skin broken. A few years ago, when she was attending a banquet outside the mansion, she saw a maid cut her hand and bleeding, and she fainted. It was said that she was weak and had few friends, so when Shen Wan invited her to the Jingbei Palace, she subconsciously accepted.
She also envied the good relationship between Chen Wan and Wei Mingzhu. If they didn't have a good relationship, Princess Shouzhen and the others would not use Wei Mingzhu to plot against Chen Wan.
Even though she knew that if she became good friends with Shen Wan, she might be targeted by Song Nanyue and the others, she still yearned for it.
Chen Wan and Wei Mingzhu were familiar with each other, talking and laughing. Ling Xue was still a little reserved, but Wei Mingzhu was a carefree person, so he pulled her along and they quickly became familiar with each other.
Chen Wan first took them to pay their respects to the princess. The princess gave each of them a jade bracelet. Chen Wan was pregnant, so it was not as convenient for her to go out as before. She asked them to come to the Jingbei Palace often when they were free to talk to Chen Wan and relieve her boredom.
After paying their respects to the princess, they went to the garden and admired the flowers for a while. Shanhu asked, "Should we bring the cakes to the garden, or eat them back at Zhaolanxuan?"
Shen Wan smiled and said, "Come sit in the yard where I live."
The three of them went to Zhaolanxuan again.
I first had some snacks in the pavilion. Zhaolanxuan is very big and has a small garden with a lotus pond and koi.
So he started strolling in the small garden again, but as he was strolling, he heard a thud and the sound of something hitting the ground.
Chen Wan and Ling Xue turned around and saw Wei Mingzhu standing there. In front of her, there was a person lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out.
When he walked over, he saw that it was the Prince of Yuzhang who wished he could fall to his death on the spot.
Prince Yuzhang had never wanted to die so much before.
He had climbed over the wall of Prince Jingbei's Mansion at least five or six hundred times, if not a thousand times, and he had never thought that he would fall down while climbing over the wall.
He was used to stopping at the top of the wall and then jumping down, and he never fell.
As a result, as soon as he climbed onto the top of the wall, he saw Wei Mingzhu. He was confused at the time, thinking that he had climbed over the wrong wall and came to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion instead of the Prince of Jingbei's Mansion.
He was distracted, his feet slipped, and he fell from the wall. By the time he reacted, it was too late and he was already lying on the ground.
Prince Yuzhang wanted to die, and Wei Mingzhu was also confused. She thought she was so angry with Prince Yuzhang that she had hallucinations.
When Shen Wan came over, Wei Mingzhu pointed at the Prince of Yuzhang and asked them, "Can you see someone here?"
Prince of Yuzhang, “…”
Shen Wan, “…”
Ling Xue, “…”
The two wanted to laugh but couldn't.
Prince Yuzhang got up with a look of despair on his face and went to look for Xie Jingyu.
Wei Mingzhu watched him go, still doubting herself, "Can't you really see? Is he really making me sick with my eyes?"
