Chapter 235 Why are you here? (11)
At the same time, Nie Qingxue didn't know what happened in Luo Mansion. She smiled sweetly and looked at Wuya who was sitting cross-legged under the plum tree with her beautiful eyes.
Nie Qingxue was almost obsessed with Wuya's beauty. She imagined in her mind what Wuya would look like with hair.
The maid Caiju suddenly came over, bent down and whispered to Nie Qingxue, who was sitting on a bamboo stool, "Miss, there is a young man named Wen who wants to see you."
"Young Master Wen?" Nie Qingxue wondered at first. After careful consideration, she remembered Wen Shu'an. He hadn't returned to Tianyao Kingdom yet, but was still in Zhu Kingdom! Even more surprising to Nie Qingxue was how Wen Shu'an knew she was here.
Confused, Nie Qingxue stood up, frowned slightly, and walked towards the small door. Caiju followed closely behind.
Dongmei was standing by the small door. When she saw Nie Qingxue and Caiju coming, she opened the door.
Wen Shuan looked more haggard than before. He seemed to have never had a good night's sleep, and there were bloodshot eyes.
"Xue'er..." Wen Shu'an was excited to see Nie Qingxue again, but he controlled his excitement and spoke softly to Nie Qingxue.
Nie Qingxue smiled slightly and questioned Wen Shu'an, "How did Master Wen know Xue'er was here?"
Wen Shu'an was stunned. He originally thought that Nie Qingxue would at least care about him first.
"Xue'er, I saw the Nie family's carriage near Guangyuan Temple, so I came here boldly to see if you were here." Wen Shu'an half-closed his eyes and forced a self-deprecating smile.
Seeing Wen Shu'an like this, Nie Qingxue's eyes were filled with impatience. She tried to make her tone gentler, "Master Wen, this is Xue'er's secret place. No one else can know about this place. Please keep it a secret for Xue'er."
Hearing this, Wen Shu'an looked behind Nie Qingxue. He looked at the quiet courtyard and immediately understood everything.
"Okay, I will keep it a secret. Xue'er, I'm leaving first." Wen Shuan felt that it would be humiliating to stay here any longer. He even felt a little regretful about coming to Zhu Country.
Nie Qingxue obviously didn't need him anymore, and Wen Shuan sensed this.
It was precisely because he was clear about this that Wen Shuan chose to leave.
Just after Wen Shuan walked away, a little monk suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Dear donor, Master Wuya invites you. Please follow me." The little monk smiled gently.
Wen Shu'an originally wanted to refuse, but he thought of the rumors about Master Wu Ya and wanted to see what kind of abilities this Master Wu Ya had.
Meanwhile, Nie Qingxue felt relieved when she saw Wen Shu'an leave without making a fuss. She didn't want to coax a man, and Wen Shu'an's obedient departure actually gave Nie Qingxue a better impression of him.
When Nie Qingxue wanted to sit back and continue to admire Wuya's beauty, she heard Wuya say in his pleasant voice: "Xue'er, I still have something to deal with in the temple. Let's stop here today. Xue'er, be careful on the way back."
Nie Qingxue pouted, "Okay, see you next time."
Wuya, "Well, see you next time."
Nie Qingxue reluctantly left the courtyard, looking back every few steps at Wuya who was standing in the courtyard.
Nie Qingxue didn't look away until they walked out of the courtyard. She couldn't help but sigh, "It would be great if we could find more substitutes."
"Miss, what is a substitute?" Caiju asked puzzledly.
Nie Qingxue laughed dryly twice. "For example, let's say I want a valuable item, but it's expensive and I can't afford it, so I can only look for something similar but cheaper. This is what a substitute means."
"So that's how it is." Caiju seemed to understand.
Nie Qingxue lowered her lips, complaining inwardly: "After being here for so long, she still habitually uses modern words. Fortunately, she said it in front of the two maids." If these two maids dared to betray her, she could just kill them and be done with it. There was no need to worry about anyone else finding out.
After Nie Qingxue boarded the carriage back home, she vaguely heard two maids sitting in the back of the carriage whispering to each other. Nie Qingxue subconsciously thought that the two maids were complaining about her behind her back, so she put her ear to the wooden board behind her.
"Dongmei, have you seen Xia Qing, the maid in the second young lady's courtyard these days?" This was Caiju's voice.
"No, I heard that Xia Qing made a mistake and was punished by the lady by having her palm slapped." Dongmei's voice continued.
"How pitiful. Xia Qing is always accused of false charges in the Second Young Lady's courtyard. It's clearly Chunye's fault, but Xia Qing is always the one who gets punished." Caiju said somewhat sadly.
Dongmei: "Yes, according to the kitchen maid, Xia Qing's palms were broken, and she still had to work. It would be great if the young lady could know about this."
Cai Ju: "But Xia Qing is the maid of the Second Miss. You know, the Second Miss always likes to make trouble for the First Miss. If the First Miss interferes in this matter, the Madam and the Second Miss might say something."
Dongmei: "But Xia Qing is so pitiful. Why don't we wait until the young lady falls asleep and then go take the medicine to Xia Qing."
Nie Qingxue didn't continue listening to the rest. She stood up and gradually formed a plan in her mind.
A plan against Nie Huaili.
Nie Qingxue let out a wicked smile. Prince Duan Tu Weizhi's constant pestering had already disrupted all her plans. She couldn't follow the path of her previous life and let Nie Huaili be ruined.
Now that the opportunity has come to her, Nie Qingxue must seize it.
Ah, it makes me happy just thinking about it.
The aphrodisiac she had prepared could be used. Since Prince Duan liked to pester her so much, she would invite him and Nie Huaili out together and create a perfect elopement script for them.
Nie Qingxue became happier the more she thought about it, so she lifted the car curtain and wanted to get some fresh air.
Unexpectedly, she saw a luxurious carriage parked outside Zhiya Pavilion. She recognized this carriage; it belonged to the current Crown Prince.
Nie Qingxue asked the coachman to stop and then got off the carriage.
She wondered why Prince Tu Ming'en came to Zhiya Pavilion.
After Nie Qingxue walked into Zhiya Pavilion, she found that there was no guest inside and the maids were all standing quietly by.
Prince Tu Ming'en was dressed in casual clothes, looking down slightly at the latest facial mask from Zhiyage in his hand.
"Brother Prince, why are you here?" Nie Qingxue said softly.
Tu Ming'en heard the familiar voice, turned around, and placed the mask in his hand on the display stand beside him. Tu Ming'en was handsome, and his smile gave people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze.
"Sister Xue'er, I went to the Nie Mansion to look for you, but I learned that you weren't there and your father didn't know where you were. So I wanted to come to Zhiya Pavilion to look for you, but you weren't there either. I had no choice but to wait for you here for over two hours."
Nie Qingxue's smile deepened upon hearing this. She took the initiative to step forward and reached out to hold Tu Ming'en's wrist. "It's Xue'er, not me. Prince, please follow Xue'er upstairs. There's a private room on the second floor where we can chat for a while."
At the same time, Nie Qingxue complained in her heart: Why didn't you come earlier or later, but at this time? If you wanted to come, you didn't even send a visiting card in advance, but just stood there waiting stupidly.
