Medical Princess - Chapter 148

“Your child should be taught!” Di Fenglan said angrily and she was in pain because her hand was being squeezed by Yujie. She did not notice that the several ladies around her had stepped back and looked respectful.

“The child in my mansion should be sent to Duke Yong’s Mansion to learn from Miss Di!” A snort came from behind.

Di Fenglan was stunned for a moment and heard it clearly this time. She looked at Qin Wanru, who was pursing her lips tightly. She hurriedly turned her head and saw Rui’an Great Elder Princess, who was surrounded by a large group of Madams and Young Ladies.

Immediately, she was scared and drew back her hand.

She stuttered, “Rui’an…Great… Great Elder Princess!”

When Hao’er saw Rui’an Great Elder Princess, he released the hand of Qin Wanru, and rushed up to Rui’an Great Elder Princess. “Grandma!”

When she saw that her grandson was fine, Rui’an Great Elder Princess’s tight face relaxed and she reached out to hug Hao’er.

“Grandma, they wanted to sell me!” When Hao’er plunged into the arms of Rui’an Great Elder Princess, he immediately turned his head, reached out, pointed to the two people who were tied up, and complained.

Rui’an Great Elder Princess took Hao’er in her arms, looked up at the two tied up women, and then her eyes fell on Qin Wanru’s face. She smiled slightly. Although others had said that before, she did not believe it at all.

“Young Lady of Duke Yong’s Mansion?” Rui’an Great Elder Princess’s eyes finally fell on Di Fenglan.

“Great Elder Princess, she is my daughter!” Countess Yong had to brace herself to step forward.

“You raised a good daughter who knows the rules. She even wanted to teach Hao’er for me!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess nodded slightly and smiled coldly.

What she said was very harsh, and Di Fenglan could not stand it. She almost fell due to her staggering, but she responded quickly. She knelt down under the impetus of her falling, and bowed her head, saying with tears, “Great Elder Princess, I didn’t know Master Hao is your grandson just now. I… How offensive I am!”

No matter how arrogant Di Fenglan was, she did not dare to be arrogant in front of Rui’an Great Elder Princess.

“Hmph!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess snorted and ignored her. Her eyes fell again on the bound old woman, whose ill-fitting dress belonged to the princess’s mansion.

“Go to check where the old woman is from.”

“Yes, I will check it out immediately!” Granny Gao nodded and reached out to ask several servant girls to call the supervisors of various departments. There were so many people in the mansion that Granny Gao herself could not recognize them all.

Hao’er held the neck of Rui’an Great Elder Princess, and said affectionately, “Grandma, it was sister who saved me. They talked nonsense, and it was sister who caught these two bad guys!”

“Grandma knows. Sister is good and the others are bad!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess touched the head of her grandson and her heart was soft.

But then a glimmer of anger flashed in her eyes. “Bring the servant girl who found the note!”

The blame on Qin Wanru was due to a note that was picked up by a servant girl. Since she found the note, she was with Rui’an Great Elder Princess.

“Princess, you can ask someone to check if there was anyone in the place where Prince Xin climbed out from. Just now, the wet nurse said that she was asked to bring Hao’er there!” Qin Wanru said before she stepped forward and saluted Rui’an Great Elder Princess respectfully.

“It was checked before, and there was no one!” Countess Yong, who was ignored before, smiled apologetically to Rui’an Great Elder Princess.

“That was before, which is different from now!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess said coldly and waved to a supervisor to go with several old women to the mansion wall where Prince Xin climbed out before.

Chu Liuxin also followed Rui’an Great Elder Princess and blushed with shame after hearing what Qin Wanru had said. He stared at Qin Wan unfriendly. What happened just now already embarrassed him, and now he felt that he had lost face once more when it was mentioned again.

Chu Liuxin felt that Qin Wanru was detestable. Originally, he wanted to make friends with her, but now they could not be friends.

The servant girl was brought to kneel down in front of Rui’an Great Elder Princess.

“Tell me, where was the paper from?” Rui’an Great Elder Princess asked coldly.

“Well… I picked it up. Princess, I know nothing. I just picked up a piece of paper…” the servant girl answered worriedly.

“How could you recognize what it says?” Rui’an Great Elder Princess had asked before, but at that time she did not think so thoroughly. Now she understood something.

“There… there was a servant girl who came to help me. She knew the words. As soon as I knew it was related to Master Hao, I came to report you, Princess!” the girl answered with a pale face, and she regretted it. She should not have strived for merit and should have said that the other servant girl was also present at that time.

“Can you still recognize the servant girl?” Granny Gao helped Rui’an Great Elder Princess to ask questions. She looked at Qin Wanru and secretly felt it had something to do with her.

“I was busy reporting to Princess at that time and really did not pay attention to who she was. I only remember that she was not from our mansion.” The servant girl cried, in a hurry and confused.

Since she could not recognize her, it seemed that the question about Qin Wanru should be over.

Qin Wanru, who was standing on one side, looked up slightly, and her eyes fell on Di Fenglan, who was still kneeling on the ground. Di Fenglan knelt there with her head down. Before Rui’an Great Elder Princess asked her to get up, she was kneeling there as if she were really repenting.

But just after the servant girl of Rui’an Great Elder Princess’s Mansion spoke, her shoulders were obviously loosened and a cold light flashed through her eyes.

“Great Elder Princess, can I ask something?” Qin Wanru asked.

Rui’an Great Elder Princess nodded. At present, although she did not ask about her grandson, she could see that Qin Wanru saved her grandson. So, she liked Qin Wanru more and more.

To return the favor, the interrogation of the servant girl in public was to testify to Qin Wanru’s innocence.

“See if there are any servants girls you saw here?” Qin Wanru stretched out and said to the servant girl. The area she pointed at included the servant girls and old women brought by the Madams and Young Ladies who were present.

She could see that Di Fenglan’s shoulders tightened again.

Up to now, Qin Wanru had already figured out the cause of the matter. Somehow, Di Fenglan knew something would happen to the kid, and she deliberately added her name. If the kid was really missing, and she went to a remote place, her crime would be beyond dispute without a witness.

How could a weak girl like her afford such a crime!

She was really a mad dog, and wanted to bite her because of the previous conflict!

“I… I don’t recognize her!” The servant girl shyly turned her eyes around. Since there were so many servant girls and old women, she really could not recognize her.

“Could you please tell me who else knows my name here, Great Elder Princess?” Looking at Di Fenglan’s relaxed shoulders, Qin Wanru looked at her coldly, with an undisguised disgust in her eyes. She thought that she could not do anything to her. In fact, it was just because others did not think of something!

“I arrived in the capital city recently and it was also my first time to attend a banquet. I had no contact with the people in the capital city. How could someone know my name, and write down my name to blame me and kill me?” Qin Wanru said coldly.

666

With this remark, she immediately reminded everyone present.

Not everyone could know Qin Wanru’s name. People looked at each other, and those with a quick response at once looked at the people from Duke Yong’s Mansion.

“According to Duke Yong’s Mansion before, the Young Lady is called Qin Yuru, and this lady should be Qin Wanru. After all, they are sisters.”

“By the way, Duke Yong’s Mansion has a kinship with Qin’s Mansion. Even if others don’t know her name, they certainly know about it!”

“It’s true. That is to say, this note has something to do with Duke Yong’s Mansion!”

“Miss Di has quarreled with this lady before, and she did it again. Is she…” Some were guessing, some were asking, and some looked at Di Fenglan with surprise.

There was no need for Rui’an Great Elder Princess to ask again. All the questions were immediately pushed to Duke Yong’s Mansion because of what everybody said.

Countess Yong was stunned, and her face immediately became terrible. She said urgently, “It has nothing to do with our mansion. And it was not us who said that.”

It was not them who had said that before. It was just a servant girl they brought.

But how could a servant dare to talk nonsense without her master’s suggestion! Everyone looked suspiciously at Countess Yong.

“Princess, I’m finished!” The goal was achieved. Qin Wanru smiled coldly and no longer asked anything. Then, she stepped back to Rui’an Great Elder Princess.

Her story was just an interlude. The main play was about kidnapping the grandson of Great Elder Princess. Someone just framed her with it.

She was also totally suspicious of Di Fenglan’s involvement. She could not really testify that it was Di Fenglan, but now this was enough!

“Countess Yong, I am sorry. You should go back first. I won’t keep you because I have something else to do!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess said coldly, and did not look at them after that. She just brushed her sleeves to leave!

She was directly driving out a guest in public. For a time, Countess Yong’s face turned blue and white. She was embarrassed and angry.

She was a noble Madam in the capital city. Not only her own family but also her husband’s family was excellent. She was always the distinguished guest at a banquet. How could she expect to be driven away on the spot?

If it were someone else, she would have left with a sneer. But the point was that she was Rui’an Great Elder Princess, the aunt of the emperor.

“Mother!” Seeing Rui’an Great Elder Princess leave, Di Fenglan stood up with her servant girl’s hand, and her eyes fell on Qin Wanru indignantly.

Bearing the eyes of mockery and ridicule, Countess Yong ground her teeth and said, turning to her daughter, “Let’s go!”

“Mother, I…” Di Fenglan was not reconciled. She still wanted to trouble Qin Wanru, but Countess Yong glared at her fiercely. She had to turn around and leave with Countess Yong.

It was unknown who laughed behind her, and then more and more mockery came from behind. Countess Yong felt that her whole face was burning, she had never suffered such indignation before.

Seeing Countess Yong leave, Qin Wanru slowly turned her head and was about to wander around the garden again. It seemed that the banquet would not begin for a while.

“Second Miss Qin, please don’t go!”
