Medical Princess

Chapter 684 Prince Xin, Who Was in a Hurry to Meet a Beauty

Qing Xue didn’t know the situation inside. Now that she had found a pretext to talk about it, she naturally asked with a smile and curiosity, “Is the gardener in our mansion an outsider? Shouldn’t he be a servant in our mansion?”

When they were in Jiangzhou, the gardeners in General’s Mansion were all servants in the mansion.

“Our gardeners used to be servants in our mansion, but since Duke Yong’s Mansion sent a few precious flowers here, we had to find skilled gardeners outside.” The old maid guarding the door happened to be bored. She didn’t feel that Qing Xue was annoying, so she explained to her in detail.

“Why did Duke Yong’s Mansion send flowers to our mansion?” Qing Xue’s eyes widened.

“You little girl... have you just entered the mansion? I haven’t heard of any new servants in the mansion recently!” The old maid guarding the door was stunned by Qing Xue’s ignorant look. She looked Qing Xue up and down in astonishment. She really didn’t know her.

“I’ve been in the mansion for a long time. Maybe I haven’t come to the back door in daily life!” Qing Xue said vaguely with a smile.

“The flowers of Duke Yong’s Mansion were not sent to our mansion at first. When First Miss returned to our mansion, she said that the flowers in our mansion were too simple and not special. So she especially sent a few here, but she didn’t say that she would give them to our mansion. She only said that she wanted us to take good care of them, and they would be of great use one day!”

The old maid did not find anything unusual about Qing Xue, so she explained again.

What was more, it was not a secret in General’s Mansion, so it didn’t matter if it was revealed.

“What’s the great use?”

The old maid yawned and said, “I really don’t know about it. Who knows what First Miss is thinking? She’s now the Princess of Duke Yong. No matter what she thinks or does, we servants cannot ask about it!”

“Thank you, nanny!” Qing Xue knew that the old maid was tired of her, so she took the opportunity to bow and leave...

Shao Wanru’s carriage was stopped as soon as it left Qin’s Mansion.

“What a coincidence to meet you here, Fifth Miss Shao!” Chu Liuxin poked his head out of the carriage with a look of surprise and excitement.

“He knew it was my carriage at a glance?” Shao Wanru frowned. She didn’t think it was a coincidence. There was the symbol of Duke Xing’s Mansion on the carriage, but not all the carriages with this symbol belonged to her. Moreover, she had just come out of Qin’s Mansion.

Glancing at Yujie, she said softly, “Prince Chen’s Mansion.” Yujie understood!

She poked her body out of the carriage and said to Chu Liuxin with a smile, “What a coincidence to meet you here, Prince Xin. Do you also want to go to Prince Chen’s Mansion?”

“Why should I go to my third brother’s mansion?” Chu Liuxin, who was wearing a broad smile, was stunned and did not understand what Yujie meant.

“In the Imperial Palace, both the Empress Dowager and Prince Chen rewarded my Miss. Old Madam wanted to thank Prince Chen for his gift. Today, she especially asked my Miss to bring a gift. We didn’t expect to meet Prince Xin here. Would you like to do us a favor and bring the gift over for our Old Madam?” Yujie said with a smile.

She reached out to pick up a gift box from the pile of gifts sent by Old Madam Qin and Shui Ruolan and jumped out of the carriage.

“Thank you for your hard work, Your Highness!” She handed the delicate gift box in her hand over.

Chu Liuxin’s smile froze on his face. He spent a lot of time waiting for Shao Wanru to go out, planning to meet her by chance. Then he could chat with the beauty in the teahouse on the side or take a walk on the street. Anyway, he planned to stay with Shao Wanru until she returned to the mansion.

“Well... since it’s Old Madam’s gift to my third brother, it’s better for you to give it to him in person, Fifth Miss Shao!” Chu Liuxin said bitterly.

“In fact, it is not very reasonable for Old Madam to ask my Miss to send the gift. Although my Miss saved Prince Chen before and he thanked her for this, men and women should keep a distance after all,” Yujie said seriously. Then she bowed deeply to Chu Liuxin. “I hope that Your Highness will do my Miss a favor. My Miss will never forget it.”

Chu Liuxin’s eyes fell on the carriage in front of him. The curtain fell, and he could see no trace of the beauty inside. He sighed helplessly and asked the little eunuch beside him to take the gift box from Yujie’s hand. He said weakly, “Then I’ll go there for your Miss!”

“Thank you, Your Highness!” Yujie smiled and bowed again. Then she turned back to the front of her carriage and got in. The coachman looked at Prince Xin and waited for the carriage of Prince Xin’s Mansion to leave before he could move forward.

Chu Liuxin waved his hand helplessly, and the carriage of Prince Xin’s Mansion got out of the way. As the carriage of Duke Xing’s Mansion left, Chu Liuxin watched the carriage slowly passing by him. The person inside it did not lift the curtain, and no sound could be heard inside the window. “Is the person inside not interested in me at all?”

This feeling was really not good. Chu Liuxin lowered his head and was no longer in a good mood, looking like a frosted eggplant.

“Your Highness, actually, Fifth Miss Shao trusts you very much. You see, she thinks of you at this time!” Eunuch Liu rolled his eyes obsequiously and tried to comfort his master.

“How can you tell that Fifth Miss Shao trusts me?” Chu Liuxin went to his own carriage dejectedly.

“Your Highness, can’t you tell? The Old Madam of Duke Xing’s Mansion seems to want Prince Chen to be with Fifth Miss very much. Otherwise, she would not ignore the etiquette between men and women and ask Fifth Miss to go to Prince Chen’s Mansion alone. But Fifth Miss must be unwilling. So when she saw you, she asked you to send the gift to Prince Chen’s Mansion.”

Eunuch Liu was a brilliant talker, and he made Chu Liuxin happy in just a few words. Thinking about it carefully, Chu Liuxin felt that it seemed to be the truth. He immediately became energetic and nodded repeatedly. “What you said makes sense!”

“That’s the reason. Your Highness, think about it. Fifth Miss Shao is unwilling to follow Old Madam’s order to visit Prince Chen, but she is willing to entrust the gift to you. It can be seen that you and Prince Chen are different in her heart!” Seeing that his master was happy, Eunuch Liu became more and more flattering.

His words made Chu Liuxin cheerful. The latter touched his smooth chin and nodded repeatedly. “That’s right, that’s right!

“It seems that not only do I have to behave well in front of Fifth Miss Shao, but I also have to behave well in front of Old Madam of Duke Xing’s Mansion so that she can see me. Otherwise, she will wholeheartedly marry Fifth Miss Shao to my third brother. It’s obvious that I’m more suitable for Fifth Miss Shao!”

Thinking of this, he had no resistance to helping Shao Wanru send the gift box. He got on the carriage happily and went to Prince Chen’s Mansion with Eunuch Liu.

Shao Wanru was afraid that Chu Liuxin would make trouble on the street, so she deliberately acquiesced in Yujie’s insolent behavior. She didn’t expect Eunuch Liu to tell her deep affection from it.

Chu Liuxin’s carriage entered the side door of Prince Chen’s Mansion. He got out of the carriage with a gift box in hand. Then he said to Xiao Xuanzi, who came to lead the way, with a smile, “Is my third brother in the mansion?”

“He just came back from the Empress Dowager’s palace. Now he happens to be in the mansion, but... he just took medicine and is now resting!” Xiao Xuanzi was in a dilemma for a while, but he still told the truth.

“He’s resting? Well, forget it. I won’t disturb him today. You send this gift box to him and say that it’s a gift from Duke Xing’s Mansion, thanking him for rewarding Fifth Miss Shao before. I hope he loves it!” Chu Liuxin rolled his eyes and thought that if he went back at this point, he might be able to intercept Shao Wanru if he took a shortcut. He was immediately ready to hand over the gift box in his hand to Xiao Xuanzi.

It was a rare opportunity. He really didn’t want to give up.

If he could intercept the beauty again, he would not leave this time anyhow. No matter what Fifth Miss Shao was going to do, he would follow her and accompany her.

“Your Highness Prince Xin, I can’t do that. You seldom come here. If I let you go back like this, my master will definitely not spare me when he wakes up. Your Highness, please come in! I will immediately go and tell my master that you are coming!” Xiao Xuanzi took a step back with a smile, stretched out his hand, and made way for Prince Xin.

It meant that Prince Xin had to go in once.

Xiao Xuanzi was so shrewd that he knew there was a special reason when he heard what Prince Xin had said. Moreover, it was related to Fifth Miss Shao, so Prince Xin couldn’t leave.

Chu Liuxin really wanted to refuse, but when he saw Xiao Xuanzi’s enthusiastic performance, and then looked at Eunuch Liu, who also winked at him and signaled him to go in, he could only follow Xiao Xuanzi in.

It would indeed be improper if he did not go in and take a look when he arrived at his third brother’s mansion. He would come to visit him when he had nothing to do in the past. Moreover, his mother had repeatedly told him to build good relations with his third brother.

“Let’s go!” Chu Liuxin said unhappily, but he had to pretend to be joyful. With his eyebrows hanging high, he looked a little ridiculous.

Xiao Xuanzi tried hard to look at the ground under his feet, for fear that he couldn’t hold back his laughter. For some reason, he felt that Prince Xin was unlucky. How could he come at this bad timing?

Chu Liuxin followed Xiao Xuanzi to a parlor and sat on a chair. A servant girl had already come to serve tea. It turned out to be a beautiful servant girl, which made people’s eyes light up when they saw her.

Xiao Xuanzi smiled and asked the servant girl to serve some fruit and snacks. Then he said to Chu Liuxin, “Your Highness, please wait here for a while. I’ll be back soon!”

Chu Liuxin waved his hand and said impatiently, “Go and come back as soon as possible!”

He thought that it would be best to leave immediately after seeing Chu Liuchen and exchanging a few words with him.

Xiao Xuanzi smiled and left. When he walked to the door, he looked back at the beautiful servant girl standing in the room. His smile grew bigger and bigger. He turned around and went to the inner courtyard to find his master!

Chu Liuxin picked up the tea beside him and took a few sips. The tea was good. After putting the cup down, he looked around and found that it was a parlor that he had never seen before. It was small but exquisite, and the decoration inside was very elegant.

After looking around, his eyes fell on the servant girl standing beside him. He couldn’t help but marvel at her beauty. How could there be such a beautiful servant girl in his third brother’s mansion? Her features were much better than those of the servant girls in his mansion. As someone who had seen so many beautiful palace maids, he couldn’t help but admire her. This servant girl could be regarded as beautiful as a flower.

Sensing that Chu Liuxin was observing her, the beautiful servant girl raised her head shyly and looked at Chu Liuxin with flushed cheeks. Then she stepped forward gracefully and filled the cup from which he had just taken a few sips. However, maybe because she was too shy, her hands trembled, and the tea spilled out all of a sudden. Then, it dripped down from the table.

Chu Liuxin hurriedly stood up, but it was too late. A few drops of tea had already dripped on his robe...
