Chapter 905 Chewing the Root of the Tongue
Just at this moment, the Fourth Prince walked in with Situtu Qinger from outside.
The Fourth Prince had taken her to enjoy the flowers in the garden, and she was in high spirits! It was indeed a good day for her. Not only was her tarnished reputation cleansed, but she also won the favor of the Fourth Prince.
This place was the Empress’s side courtyard. The garden was filled with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, many varieties, all very precious, and unseen in ordinary places.
Thus, Situtu Qinger was particularly delighted and enjoyed herself thoroughly.
"Eldest sister, where have you been? You made your little sister search for you everywhere. This is the Royal Villa, not like the countryside where you used to live, where you could wander around freely." Situtu Qinger came forward with the pretense of a loving sister, took a hold of Xuexue’s arm, and spoke earnestly.
Within Situtu Qinger’s seemingly caring words, a hidden scheme was lurking.
She was implying to everyone that despite Situtu Xuexue now being the legitimate eldest Miss of General’s Mansion, she was nothing more than a lowly country girl before.
Xuexue subtly pushed her hand away and with a smile brimming on her face, she said, "As the eldest legitimate daughter of General’s Mansion, I am naturally aware of the decorum. Just now, the War Prince invited me to discuss selecting an auspicious day to welcome my younger sister to War Prince’s Mansion."
Hearing this, Situtu Qinger turned pale. Wasn’t the matter between her and the War Prince already concluded? Why was it being brought up again?
She glanced at Fourth Prince next to her and quickly denied it: "Eldest sister shouldn’t spout nonsense. There is nothing between Qinger and the War Prince."
