Chapter Ninety-Six: The Feud



Unexpectedly, she, a mere girl, was targeted and schemed against by so many people.

She already knew what the Crown Prince meant by what he said earlier.

They also knew who the woman was with the Minister of Works' eldest son at this moment was.

Interestingly, the son of the Minister of Works seems unaware that the woman he's with isn't Xie Lingqin.

Because she could hear the arrogant and determined air about him in Xu Gongzi's tone just now.

Now...

Xie Lingqin gritted her teeth; this was really interesting.

At this moment, Zihe, who had been missing for a long time, finally stood silently behind Xie Lingqin, looking embarrassed and speaking weakly.

"Miss……"

Xie Lingqin raised her hand, "Stop talking, I'm tired."

"I was watching Young Master Wang the whole time, and only woke him up when the time was right."

Xie Lingqin rubbed her forehead. "Tell me the whole story, and how the Crown Prince threatened you."

Zihe then explained in detail, "Originally, according to Miss's instructions, I was supposed to lure Miaoqiao out, but..."

After a long pause, Zihe added, "Also, it wasn't the Crown Prince who threatened me, but..."

"And what?"

"The Crown Prince knocked out Young Master Wang, and then ordered me to guard him."

Zihe raised her head, "This servant thought that since Miss is on the same side as the Crown Prince, she certainly wouldn't harm Miss, so..."

Xie Lingqin rubbed her forehead again, "He didn't harm me, but he ruined my plans terribly."

I really want to slap Yuwen Yao to death.

His biggest mistake was letting Wang Renyi appear here in such a respectable manner.

That despicable prince.

According to her original plan, Wang Renyi should be with Miao Qiao now, and then, with Xie Lingyu and the second aunt's self-righteous cooperation, his reputation would be ruined and a rift would develop between them.

The second aunt's backing is no longer what it used to be.

However, the Crown Prince's move...

Yes, he dealt with the son of the Minister of Works, making it impossible for him to be betrothed to her in the future, but...

Compared to that, she would much rather immediately grind Wang Renyi to dust.

At this moment, the middle-aged nanny had already brought the clothes, and behind her was Tridacna.

"Granny, what are you doing with my young lady's clothes?"

"Hey, you silly girl, didn't I already tell you, Miss..." The nanny glared at her as if to say, "How could you be so ignorant?" and handed the clothes to the second concubine.

"No, Granny, my young lady is very clean. If she finds out that you're giving her clothes to someone else, she..." Tridacna was still somewhat confused.

Meanwhile, the onlookers, looking at the giant clam, couldn't help but feel a little sorry for it.

No wonder Miss is like this. This girl is so stupid. An ordinary person can tell what happened just by looking at the atmosphere. They can guess what happened, but she is still making a fuss here. Isn't she just embarrassing Xie Lingqin even more?

The second aunt seemed to have hidden worries, but deep down, her heart was already blossoming like a flower bud.

This is truly a stroke of luck!

Xie Lingyu then "kindly" stepped forward and pulled on Tridacna, saying, "You are Tridacna, right? Step back quickly."

"Second Miss, what exactly do you want with Miss's clothes? This..."

"Shut up."

General Xie roared, and the giant clam immediately shut its mouth. Its little face twitched, as if it were innocent and frightened.

Then, she watched helplessly as her second aunt first handed in the men's clothes, and then took the women's clothes and went in.

The second concubine took her first step with such composure, such solemnity and righteousness, and such demeanor as a matriarch.

For some reason, everyone couldn't help but lower their eyes and gather their breath.

Yuwen Xian watched all this, his gaze falling on Xie Lingyu.

He naturally guessed that today's birth was probably the result of Xie Lingqin and this second concubine.

However, at this moment, he felt a faint sense of anticipation, an anticipation that he was unaware of.

I hope it's not Xie Lingqin in there.

The source of this feeling was unknown, but when he suddenly realized it, Yuwen Xian's face inexplicably became somewhat tense.

It's ridiculous. What does Xie Lingqin have to do with him? If she's ruined, it will only benefit him, not harm him.

A rustling sound came from the dense grove of branches.

"Miss, tell me, what kind of look do you think Second Aunt will have in a moment?"

In the shadows, Zihe's little face lit up with joy, and she even looked like she was watching a good show.

Xie Lingqin did not respond, but stared ahead, scrutinizing the scene for a long time.

but……

Xie Lingqin's eyes flickered, and she suddenly thought of another brilliant plan. She leaned close to Zihe and asked her to send a secret message to the giant clam.

Zihe's lips twitched involuntarily when he heard what Xie Lingqin said.

Miss, you are too... too bad.

This is like cutting off the fuel supply at the root, wiping out the whole pot.

Xie Lingqin took Zihe's gaze as praise and smiled, "That's called learning by analogy."

Is this how "drawing inferences from one instance" is used?

Miss, I'm not well-educated, don't try to fool me.

...

And behind those dense flower branches at this moment.

The atmosphere was unusually awkward.

Second Aunt never imagined that the person inside wasn't Xie Lingqin, but Miaoqiao, whom she had always kept by Xie Danling's side.

At this moment, Miao Qiao's face was flushed, and she even seemed quite satisfied.

"You, you, you..." The second aunt pointed at her, her eyes blazing with fury.

No, that's impossible.

Second Aunt didn't believe it, so she pushed Miaoqiao away and searched around the pavilion.

"Alright, Second Madam, stop looking. There's no one else here, just Miss Xie and me." Young Master Xu, looking smug, straightened his clothes. "However, you used a bit too much of this drug. Miss Xie is too enthusiastic..." Young Master Xu licked his lips, raised an eyebrow, and his eyes revealed a clear lustful glint.
