Bu Jiao still tried to force her way in, not believing that these people could do anything to her, but her maidservant stopped them.
"Don't worry, young lady. We'll deal with that bitch when she comes out." She was genuinely afraid that something might happen to Bu Jiao here, and if she went back, the Prince might skin her alive.
Bu Jiao slapped her across the face. The maid looked utterly innocent, but Bu Jiao's beautiful eyes were filled with malice. "What right does a bandit leader's daughter have to make me wait for her?! She doesn't deserve it!"
Tears welled up in the maid's eyes, but she dared not beg for mercy.
"Yes, what the young lady says is true."
What should we do now?
Bu Jiao's eyes darted around, and she instructed her maid, "Go find a scholar and tell him that someone is looking for that slut. Lure her to a secluded place."
I was going to kill that bitch today, but she was lucky enough to escape.
Since that's the case, let her do it herself.
She wanted to see just how difficult this woman was to kill.
Luck isn't something you can have all the time.
The maid dared not disobey and had no choice but to hurriedly try to come up with a solution.
Most of the students at Heshan Academy are gentle and polite. When they heard that someone was looking for Qin Su and they didn't have an invitation, they volunteered to go.
But halfway there, I realized something was wrong.
"Is your daughter really Princess Consort Chen's good friend?" The scholar who spoke had a round face, but his features were not unpleasant. Most importantly, his skin was fair with a rosy glow, which made him quite pleasing to the eye.
"Of course, would I lie to you, young master?" She covered half her face, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at the scholar.
Seeing her like this, how could the scholar dare to say anything?
"Don't cry."
He was somewhat anxious, but he remained vigilant.
He knew that the poetry gathering was organized by one of his senior classmates, who was not an unreasonable person. If the person coming was well-intentioned, they could get in even without an invitation.
But why didn't they go in?
The reason is obvious.
Zuo Yuan thought about it for a long time and kept a watchful eye on things.
"Please wait here, young lady. I will go and speak with Princess Consort Chen." Zuo Yuan did not let the maid go in, but left her at the door. After going in, he first asked the person in charge of the poetry gathering, who was the young man from before.
After exchanging information, he went to find Qin Su. It wasn't that he really wanted to ask her out, but since this matter was related to her, he felt he had to mention it.
Even if I don't go to see that person, I still need to be careful after the poetry gathering ends.
Yuanyuan was already asleep. Qin Su gently patted the child's thick clothes with her hand, her movements gentle, her eyes full of love.
Zuo Yuan walked over, first kneeling on the cushion, and then whispered to Qin Su, "Your Highness, someone is looking for you outside."
His gaze involuntarily fell on the baby in the swaddling clothes. The baby was sleeping soundly, fair and tender, and smelled of milk. It was hard not to like the baby.
This is Prince Chen's daughter. She was granted the title of Princess Chenxi at birth, which shows how much she was favored.
So cute.
"What kind of person?" Qin Su placed the child in the small basket that Chongyang had brought and wiped her hands.
Zuo Yuan thought carefully and replied, "She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a wisteria-patterned dress." He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and added, "Right, she kept covering her face, I wonder if she was injured."
But he didn't smell any blood, so he should be alright, right?
Qin Su had a general idea of what was going on.
Well, she was thinking of going to settle accounts with this person later that night, but now that the person was already standing in front of her, it would be a sign that she was afraid of trouble if she didn't make a move.
"Okay, I understand."
Zuo Yuan was a little reluctant to leave. He moved a chair over and sat next to Lian Tao. It wasn't that he was attracted to beautiful women; he simply wanted to see Yuan Yuan.
He hadn't been home for a long time and didn't even know if there had been any new additions to his family.
Zuo Yuan loves children, but alas, he himself is still just a child. He thinks how wonderful it would be if he could have such a well-behaved and adorable daughter someday.
Seeing Qin Su stand up, he was somewhat surprised and immediately asked, "Is Your Highness going to see that person?"
Qin Su responded.
"This... I'm afraid the other party has ill intentions." After saying this, he looked at Chongyang, seemingly wanting Chongyang to come along.
Qin Su smiled and said gently, "His martial arts skills are not as good as mine."
Chongyang: "..." Although it's the truth, is it really necessary to say it like this?
Zuo Yuan was slightly surprised; he really hadn't noticed.
Does such a slender woman really possess such remarkable abilities?
Qin Su ignored his gaze and simply handed the cloak to Lian Tao.
The weather is quite nice today, but the Heshan Academy is located on a mountain, and as they say, it's colder up high than down here.
Qin Su didn't want to wear the cloak, worried that it would be troublesome if they started fighting later.
Cloaks are nice to look at, but they're not very practical.
Her actions attracted a lot of attention, especially from the young man in charge. He had originally wanted to offer some advice, but seeing that Qin Zhi wasn't making any move, and even her guards hadn't followed, he figured she was probably alright.
The maid standing at the door breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Qin Su come out.
Fortunately, the mission was accomplished.
She also looked down on Qin Su's background, but felt that she had to give her a friendly look for now, otherwise what could she do if Qin Su didn't go with her?
If that happened, the girl would skin her alive.
"I heard you were looking for me?" Qin Su still had a gentle demeanor, but if you met her gaze, you could see the coldness in her eyes.
“It’s our young lady. She says she’s an old acquaintance of yours, and asks you to come with me, Madam.” There was not a trace of respect in her words, even though she had already used the method of luring Qin Su over.
People have little respect for those they look down on, and their unconscious way of addressing them in conversation will reveal this.
Perhaps it shouldn't be called a person, but rather... a fool.
"An old acquaintance?"
Qin Su did not recall having such an old acquaintance.
"Yes. Please come with me."
I can't wait to take her away.
Even someone like her, who isn't good at strategy, could sense that something was wrong.
"OK."
If the other party weren't so incompetent, Qin Su would still have wanted to put on an act, but now she felt that putting on an act was just fooling a blind person.
"Let's go."
The maid visibly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly led Qin Su over.
The mountain path near Heshan Academy wasn't difficult to walk; there were specially constructed steps. The path wound its way to the back of the poetry gathering, and we walked for quite a while before stopping.
However, Qin Su could still see the poetry gathering below by slightly turning her head; the distance was not far at all.
If there's even the slightest commotion, it'll be noticed, okay?
So, the master is determined by the servants.
What are you looking at?
The woman's voice carried a distinct arrogance, that of a girl raised in luxury. She knew nothing of hardship or defeat. She only knew that she could get whatever she wanted.
Seeing the person being brought over, but the first thing she looked at wasn't her rival in love, but rather her head down.
