Medical Princess

Chapter 619 Come with More than One Intention

“What do you mean. Big Sister?” Shao Wanru frowned and said impatiently.

Since Shao Yanru knew that her grandma had left, Shao Yanru could definitely expect that she, who had been frightened and almost lost her life, would be cold to her.

Since Shao Yanru came here, she was naturally not here to quarrel with her!

“I just want to check on you, Fifth Sister. No one has expected such an accident and that our mansion got involved in it. Others laughed at our mansion and spoke ill of our mansion and you. It’s really a thing that aggrieved our own people and gratified our enemies!”

As Shao Yanru said, she looked increasingly aggrieved. She wiped off the tears at the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and looked up with tears in her eyes while trying hard to force a smile with a hint of bitterness that was not very strong but could still be noticed at a glance.

Her expression was real and not dramatic, and it was a proper expression in this situation.

“Fifth Sister, both you and I come from Duke Xing’s Mansion. We are supposed to cooperate with each other, but now it’s so disgraceful that there is that kind of rumors about us outside. All members of Duke Xing’s Mansion share prosperity and bear losses together. You are now in a different situation than in the Qin’s Mansion where you stayed before. As the closest relatives, we are still connected by sinews even if bones are broken. No one can turn us against each other. Grandma had some misunderstandings with you, but mother and I have cleared up a lot of them after talking with her these days. She will probably come to visit you in person in a few days. Eldest uncle used to be her favorite son!”

As Shao Yanru said, she turned her head and wiped off the tears at the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. When she turned back, her eyes were slightly red. It was obvious that she had cried.

Shao Yanru was extremely sincere and almost spoke from the bottom of her heart. She looked at Shao Wanru with a distressed look, as if she really felt sorry for what Shao Wanru had suffered before.

If Shao Wanru really fell off the cliff this time and fell on the branches on the cliff luckily, she would be both physically and mentally injured, and the latter would probably be even more serious.

Everyone knew that it was more difficult to cure a mentally injured person than to cure a physically injured person!

Shao Wanru sneered in her heart and thought that Shao Yanru did have a smooth tongue. Shao Yanru kept asking about her physical injury without mentioning her mental trauma as if she shouldn’t have made the incident significant just because of her minor injury. Shao Yanru seemed to be reproachful while showing some pity for her.

No one would get angry or aggrieved at her words.

They were the closest relatives still connected by sinews even if bones were broken? The so-called closest relatives were probably the most vicious people, who would stab her and kill her when she was unguarded!

“Big Sister, I’m very tired!” Shao Wanru said with her long eyelashes fluttering, leaned back, and then slowly closed her eyes with an exhausted look.

She changed the subject so quickly that she ruined the aggrieving and cozy atmosphere created by Shao Yanru and even showed a hint of indifference. Shao Yanru was so angry that she almost lost control of herself.

Nevertheless, as someone with usual restraint, Shao Yanru reached out to gather a few strands of hair around her ear and asked in a soft and concerned voice, “Haven’t you recovered yet?”

“First Miss, my master had nightmares every night, couldn’t sleep well, and had no appetite. She even vomited every time she saw some food. Although she has recovered from her injuries, she has a headache and can’t bear to hear others talk about what has happened before.”

It seemed that Qing Yue couldn’t stand it anymore, so she answered sincerely.

Shao Wanru had no appetite, couldn’t fall asleep, and even had a headache. No wonder Shao Wanru looked so terrible. Shao Yanru, who was delighted, showed a gentle smile and said with sincere concern rather than take pleasure in Shao Wanru’s misfortune, “Well, I’ll stop talking about it. No matter what has happened, it has been settled now. Nevertheless, it made me find out what sort of person Qi Rongzhi is. I won’t believe her anymore!”

At this point, Shao Yanru changed the subject, “Fifth Sister, the past is the past. You should take good care of yourself and don’t think too much about what happened that day. Even the Emperor has been alarmed by the carriage crash on the cliff. You should be careful whenever you are in a carriage, even if you are on flat ground. No one knows what will happen. You ran into an accident on the flat ground outside the imperial palace before, didn’t you?”

Shao Yanru seemed to be concerned about Shao Wanru by advising her to be more careful when she went out. In fact, if Shao Wanru really had psychological trauma, she probably would not dare to take a carriage any more after hearing that. However, as a Miss from an aristocratic family, how could she not take a carriage to go out?

Shao Yanru meant to threaten her rather than to comfort her.

“I’m not going to take a carriage anymore!” After hearing her words, Shao Wanru murmured with a pale face. Her voice was low, but it was loud enough to be heard by Shao Yanru.

“Miss, how can you go out without taking a carriage?” Qing Yue asked blankly. As an ingenuous maid, she spoke her mind bluntly. What was more, she had grown up with Shao Wanru, so she didn’t have many scruples.

“In fact, there is a way. You can go out by sedan chair.” Shao Yanru suggested.

People in the capital did travel by sedan chair, but it mostly happened when they were going somewhere not far away. Besides, traveling by sedan chair took more time and was intrusive, so plenty of Misses, who seldom went out on the street, were displeased with it. No one was willing to be followed by several sedan carriers on the street, because it made them look arrogant.

“By sedan chair?” Shao Wanru opened her eyes and asked.

“Yes, it’s okay to travel by sedan chair. If there is none in Great Elder Princess’s Mansion, there are some in our mansion. I can send some people to bring one here after returning. It’s a good idea to travel by sedan chair!”

Shao Yanru said, while her pretty eyes looked very gentle. She did make herself look like quite a good elder sister.

“No, thank you, Big Sister. There should be some in my maternal grandma’s mansion!” Shao Wanru refused.

“Well, I think there must be some in Great Elder Princess’s Mansion!” Shao Yanru did not insist and said indifferently. She looked so calm as if she just mentioned it casually.

Shao Yanru advised her to travel by sedan chair and supposed that she would keep traveling in this way. Shao Wanru sneered in her heart. If it weren’t for her memory of the last life, she would probably have been convinced that it could cure her panic at the sight of the carriage!

Since there was a kind of panic caused by being frightened in the carriage, there was also a kind of panic caused by being frightened in the sedan chair!

However, someone, who panicked at the sight of a sedan chair, could be in an even worse situation than her, who panicked at the sight of a carriage. The reason why numerous people didn’t know it was that the news had been blocked and outsiders couldn’t spread it. If she hadn’t seen a farce in the imperial palace in the last life, she wouldn’t have figured out Shao Yanru’s vicious intention.

If she often traveled by sedan chair, she would definitely meet the person one day. Moreover, she believed that Shao Yanru could think of some way to bring the person to her.

“Thank you for your suggestion, First Miss!” As an ingenuous maid, Qing Yue bowed to Shao Yanru with great joy and said gratefully.

It was quite easy to deal with a frank and ingenuous maid. Shao Yanru, who felt complacent, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then raised her head again and said, “Fifth Sister, do you know that my father has presented a memorial to suggest brother Hao as the heir?”

Shao Wanru nodded but didn’t say anything.

“Only a memorial is not enough to get the Emperor’s approval, so my father has to present another memorial. It usually requires three or even more memorials to get the Emperor’s approval. But rest assured, Fifth Sister. Since my father has decided it, he will keep presenting memorials. But I’m afraid...”

At this point, Shao Yanru hesitated and looked at Shao Wanru, seeming to be about to speak but saying nothing.

Shao Wanru looked at her with composure and did not pick up the topic. She looked calm with her long eyelashes fluttering and showed a hint of indifference in her clear eyes, seeming to be not very interested in this topic.

“First Miss, is there anything wrong?” Qing Yue involuntarily asked.

“If the Emperor keeps disagreeing, it will take longer. If you want to make the Emperor make a decision as soon as possible, there is a way. I’m wondering if...” Shao Yanru said with a hesitant look and stared at Shao Wanru.

“First Miss...” Qing Yue couldn’t help talking again.

“Qing Yue, don’t you dare!” Shao Wanru said coldly and didn’t look as anxious as Shao Yanru expected. Nevertheless, she could tell from Qing Yue’s reaction that Shao Wanru was also anxious. Shao Wanru, who was shrewd, did a good job in hiding her emotion. Unfortunately, it was a bad move for Shao Wanru to keep this maid with her today.

The maid’s reaction reflected the master’s thought. Seeing the maid’s anxious look, she knew that Shao Wanru actually cared about what she said but didn’t say it.

“I heard that the stuff left eldest uncle was all in your hands. If you could send some of them to the Emperor, you might be able to remind the Emperor of the close relationship between him and eldest uncle. In this case, we can get his approval soon!” Shao Yanru said, looking very embarrassed, “But I know that eldest uncle didn’t leave a lot of stuff, you’ll lose those you give away. But if they could be helpful, eldest uncle will be happy after knowing it in the underworld!”

Shao Yanru was indeed the most scheming person. She came to Rui’an Great Elder Princess’s Mansion today in order to kill two birds with one stone. Shao Wanru sneered and looked straight at Shao Yanru’s face, but didn’t say anything, as if intending to check every tiny expression on Shao Yanru’s face.

Her gaze made Shao Yanru involuntarily move her eyes away, but then she turned back and looked into Shao Wanru’s eyes without dodging, seeming to have nothing to feel guilty for.

She disdained it in her heart. She didn’t believe that Shao Wanru could know anything. However, Shao Wanru had always been shrewd, so she couldn’t let Shao Wanru discover anything unusual.

The two of them looked at each other as if intending to discover any subtle expressions on each other’s faces. However, Shao Wanru could only see a pair of eyes, while Shao Yanru could see the expression on Shao Wanru’s face.

There seemed to be a strange aura flowing in the air...
