Medical Princess

Chapter 153 How Influential It Would Be?

When seeing Qin Huaiyong’s eyes darkening, Qin Wanru smiled slightly, reached out and held Shui Ruolan. She said in a low voice, “Mother, don’t be angry. Please pay attention to your body. You must be tired after such a long journey. How about sit down and have a rest? Look at you; you are sweaty!”

“Ruolan, sit down first!” said Qin Huaiyong. When he looked at Shui Ruolan, his face softened.

Madam Di glared at Shui Ruolan hatefully. “A mean widow! How could she not be ashamed of having our general’s baby? She needs to know she is shameless!” Then Madam Di set her eyes on Shui Ruolan’s abdomen. If her eyes were fire, Shui Ruolan’s abdomen would be burnt a hole.

Shui Ruolan didn’t refuse his suggestion and nodded in agreement. Then she sat in the chair beside Qin Huaiyong with Qin Wanru’s help.

This scene made Madam Di nearly get mad but when she raised her head, she then became angry and wronged. She looked at Qin Huaiyong and said, “General, just say something!”

Qin Huaiyong looked at Qin Wanru, frowned and asked, “You had a quarrel with Yuru when you meet at the entrance of Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ Mansion, didn’t you?”

“Yes, but I had no quarrel with elder sister. It was the lady of Duke Yong’s Mansion who tried to push me down the fence. There are numerous gravels. People would either die or get hurt if falling down. Lady Yan of the Deputy Prime Minister’s Mansion could not bear and helped me a lot! Many people also saw the scene!”

Qin Wanru raised her eyes and said blankly, “Why are you crying? It is I who got hurt, isn’t it? Or is elder sister worrying about me?”

She set her blank eyes on crying Qin Yuru and her angry mother, seeming that she didn’t know her mistake.

“You are lying! It is you who told them about the event of Jiangzhou deliberately!” shouted Madam Di quickly when she found that the thing went wrong. She felt extremely angry in her heart because she didn’t receive the invitation card from Rui’an Great Elder Princess. When people of Duke Yong’s Mansion finally promised to bring Qin Yuru together, she, however, came back like a drowned rat.

Rui’an Great Elder Princess was not the Duke Fengyang so it would be quite difficult to be invited by her. With that honor, if she met the Princess of Duke Yangqu, she dare not say anything at Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ banquet. If she agitated Great Elder Princess, the Princess of Duke Yangqu could not take this responsibility.

However, she missed this perfect chance and let Shui Ruolan appear in front of others first. How would others think about her?

Was she unwanted? Would she not be the official wife soon and let the second wife be an honor guest? Would the general not want his official wife?

Madam Di had been angry about this while Qin Yuru came back in tears. However, she could not let off her anger on Shui Ruolan and then she chose Qin Wanru.

“What did I tell others?” Qin Wanru seemed to be much blanker, and said, “So do you mean that I explained to others that I didn’t snatch other’s bridegroom and I didn’t break off the engagement in Jiangzhou?”

When she finished, she deliberately turned around, looked at Shui Ruolan and asked hesitantly, “Mother, many ladies being with elder sister said I did these things, didn’t they? Couldn’t I explain to them that I never did these things?”

Shui Ruolan turned and looked at Qin Huaiyong. She looked a little bit serious and asked, with her hands covering her abdomen subconsciously, “General, why would they say that to Wanru? Wanru just arrived in the capital city and she isn’t a well-known lady of an aristocrat family. However, why would so many people say that to her? When we just entered the mansion, there were many ladies of Duke Yong’s Mansion and they were all talking about this!”

A hint of hate flashed in Madam Di’s eyes and she set her eyes on Shui Ruolan’s abdomen. Now Shui Ruolan’s abdomen was her most hateful thing. She always hoped that Shui Ruolan would be irritated, which would affect the fetus or miscarry directly!

“They are spreading gossip about Wanru?” Hearing this, Qin Huaiyong felt strange. He raised his eyes and watched Qin Yuru who was still crying and lying on the table.

In Qin’s Mansion, Qin Yuru was the first person who came to the capital city. So if there were some people talking about Qin Wanru, Qin Yuru would be very doubtful. Thinking about the event in Jiangzhou, Qin Huaiyong could not say that his eldest daughter was totally innocent.

However, she was his only daughter!

“Yes, they are. Wanru just explained a few words and why would the thing become killing Yuru? Or is Wanru really wrong for doing that? So is it reasonable to slander Wanru?” Shui Ruolan sneered. Although she was very gentle and soft, when seeing Qin Huaiyong being indecisive, she felt angry and made her voice sharp unconsciously!

“Yuru, tell me about that. How do people know the event in Jiangzhou? How do they know those things like snatching bridegroom and breaking the engagement?” Qin Huaiyong said with a solemn face and banged on the table with his hand.

“Father, I have no idea! I didn’t do that!” said Qin Yuru. She felt nervous and she didn’t expect that Shui Ruolan and Qin Wanru would use this point. But she had prepared before so she denied at once!

“If elder sister didn’t do that, then who would do that? Who would know me?” asked Qin Wanru painfully, seeming that she was also very indecisive.

Except Qin Yuru, who would know Qin Wanru before she arrived in the capital city and who would hate her so much?

Here, Qin Wanru seemed to remember something, turned around and said to Qin Huaiyong, “Father, Countess Yong was asked to leave by Rui’an Great Elder Princess!”

If Qin Huaiyong could not make a decision at once, then just let her push him!

A hint of grimness flashed in her beautiful eyes. Madam Di and her daughter certainly didn’t expect what happened when Qin Yuru had left.

“What?” Qin Huaiyong asked quickly as his expression changed.

“Nonsense! It is impossible!” Madam Di screamed loudly.

“No!” shouted Qin Yuru, gnashing her teeth. She finally did not pretend to cry, raised her head and glared at Qin Wanru.

“It is true. Now everyone in the capital city knows this. If you don’t believe me, now you could send someone to ask about it outside the mansion that whether Countess Yong is kicked off!”

Shui Ruolan said coldly aside.

“Why would Rui’an Great Elder Princess ask my sister-in-law to leave? Nonsense!” Madam Di bit the bullet and said powerfully. Seeing them being calm and peaceful, Madam Di gradually felt anxious and didn’t believe that this would happen to her maiden home.

Qin Huaiyong also didn’t believe and stared at Shui Ruolan.

“I hear that it is related to the kidnapping of Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ grandchild!” Shui Ruolan answered.

“Is it true?” Qin Huaiyong had to face this fact. If it was true, it would be a really serious event for Duke Yong’s Mansion, which would definitely affect their reputation!

“Yes!” Shui Ruolan nodded affirmatively again.

“Father, I also got involved in this. There was a slip of paper on which my name is written. I am a new-comer but they have known me. Then it is said that the slip of paper belongs to Duke Yong’s Mansion. However, mother and I don’t know the details. Anyway, Rui’an Great Elder Princess was very angry and asked Countess Yong to leave at once!”

Qin Wanru explained the event logically with her eyes flickering.

Though her explanation was a little bit vague and didn’t point directly at Duke Yong’s Mansion, Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ decision explained everything with evidence!

Hearing her words, Qin Huaiyong believed her at once and glared at Madam Di whose face turning pale immediately. He shouted angrily, “What does Duke Yong’s Mansion want to do on earth?”

If this event was related to Qin Wanru, then it went to Qin’s Mansion. Now Qin Huaiyong didn’t get promoted and if something bad happened to Qin Wanru, his career would be influenced greatly. How could he not get mad when thinking of this!

Madam Di got flustered. She didn’t expect that things would go like this!

It was certain that Countess Yong didn’t like Qin Wanru but why she would really cause trouble, even in front of Rui’an Great Elder Princess who then asked her to leave at the end. Then how could she plan to let her sister-in-law bring Shui Ruolan to Marquises’ Mansion of Fengyang?

How could she plan to let her sister-in-law trap Shui Ruolan and make her miscarry?

“What did she do? She is calm all the time but how could she do this ridiculous thing?” Madam Di was angry and anxious.

Now she was complaining about Countess Yong but she didn’t expect that she put Countess Yong in the wrong because it was her niece, Di Fenglan who did without thinking when she got mad. Actually, it had nothing to do with Countess Yong!

“Sister-in-law would definitely not do this! You must misunderstand her!” No matter how she thought in her mind, Madam Di still said powerfully, gnashing her teeth with her eyes flickering.

“Misunderstand? Rui’an Great Elder Princess misunderstood her?” Qin Huaiyong asked with a livid face.

“It may be… It must be because Rui’an Great Elder Princess favors Wanru that she misunderstood my sister-in-law! She sent the invitation card to Wanru, directly, without mentioning my Yuru. I don’t know why Rui’an Great Elder Princess would look down upon my Yuru. Logically, she should invite these two sisters in pair!”

Madam Di lowered her head sadly. Her meaning was that Shui Ruolan and Qin Wanru had spoken evil of Qin Yuru and Duke Yong’s Mansion in front of Rui’an Great Elder Princess, which made Rui’an Great Elder Princess had a prejudice against Qin Yuru and Duke Yong’s Mansion. She must misunderstand them and then asked them to leave.

Realizing that Madam Di was confusing right and wrong, Shui Ruolan got really mad and shook with anger. She knew Madam Di was shameless but she didn’t expect that Madam Di would have no sense of shame at all! When she tried to stand up and say something, Qin Wanru tugged her sleeves and said, “Does father think that Rui’an Great Elder Princess has favored me so much like this? We only met once. Would she believe me like this?”

Now Shui Ruolan quickly understood her meaning, turned and said to Qin Huaiyong, “General, if Rui’an Great Elder Princess does favor Wanru so much, then your promotion would be… a piece of cake!”

When Madam Di heard this, her expression changed drastically…
