Chapter 501: I Will Help You (2)
"You're quite eloquent. I know you're quite courageous, otherwise you wouldn't have deliberately embarrassed me at the tribute banquet." Thinking of what happened at the tribute banquet, Princess Ming'an's eyes flashed with murderous intent. She was the most favored princess of Qin, and even within the Qin royal family, everyone was in awe of her. She hadn't expected to arrive in Mingqi, a nation inferior to Qin in every way, and be led by Shen Miao to faint at the tribute banquet. The thought of her humiliation made Princess Ming'an want to kill the person in front of her. If she hadn't been concerned about her current position within Mingqi and the warning from Huangfu Hao, Princess Ming'an would have killed Shen Miao right now.
She suddenly looked at Shen Miao, smiled, and said, “I have seen that you are an outstanding archer, and I feel that the Qin Palace lacks a sister like you. How about I ask your emperor here to let you go back to Qin with me?”
Shen Miao almost laughed. In her past and present lives, Princess Ming An seemed to be at odds with her. Now, these words seemed to have returned to her past life. When she volunteered to go to Qin as a hostage, Princess Ming An also said the same thing to Fu Xiuyi. She said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. Since you are the Queen of Ming Qi, Qin will naturally treat you well. You are my good sister."
As a result, the humiliation she suffered in Qin was no less than that in Ming Qi. Shen Miao later returned to Qin and was able to fight with Madam Mei in the harem for so long. A lot of this was due to the experience she had during those five years in Qin, which taught her to be patient and dormant.
“If Your Highness Princess has this intention, just tell His Majesty.” Shen Miao smiled nonchalantly, “If Your Majesty agrees, then I will have no choice but to go to Qin State with Your Highness Princess.”
Princess Ming'an had intended to taunt and smother Shen Miao, but she hadn't expected Shen Miao to retort. Shen Miao was Shen Xin's precious daughter, and even if Emperor Wenhui wanted to protect Shen Xin, he wouldn't touch Shen Miao for the time being. She glared at Shen Miao angrily: "You!"
Shen Miao looked at her with a smile, but said nothing.
"Don't worry, it would be too unfair for you to go back like this." Princess Ming'an smiled coldly, with malice in her eyes: "Why don't you come to my brother the Crown Prince's house and become a concubine? Or a concubine? I think the Emperor of Mingqi would be very willing."
Shen Miao frowned slightly. If Ming Qi wanted to establish a friendly relationship with the State of Qin, marriage would be a good option. If Princess Ming An could persuade Huangfu Hao, and Huangfu Hao proposed marrying Shen Miao as a concubine, Emperor Wenhui would agree. However, facing the entire nation, even if Shen Xin was unwilling, he would be unable to resist.
Seeing Shen Miao was slightly distracted, Princess Ming An curled her lips into a cold smile, and suddenly made a gesture to the maidservant beside Shen Miao. The maidservant suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed Shen Miao, who was standing by the pond, into the pond!
The impact was so fierce and powerful that Shen Miao was caught off guard and fell into the pond. Jingzhe and Guyu screamed in shock, but by the time they came to help, it was too late. Shen Miao could almost feel the cold air from the splashing water on her clothes, and the corners of her lips were also cold. Princess Ming'an's tactics were nothing more than this. Since she couldn't truly hurt her today, she would definitely make Shen Miao suffer. Even this result was almost entirely foreseeable to Shen Miao.
Shen Miao fell into the water with a "plop". She could swim well. Although the water was cold in early winter, it was not so cold that she could not move. But then she heard another "plop" beside her. At first, she thought she had misheard. She surfaced, but saw the water splashing around her. That swirling golden color, who else could it be but Princess Ming An?
Princess Ming'an's screams were so loud that they could almost pierce one's ears. She seemed unable to swim and shrieked, "Someone come! Someone come!"
