Shen Miao was asked to go the next afternoon. Luo Xueyan also asked Shen Xin to prepare a lot of gifts for Shen Miao to bring to the princess mansion. Because Princess Rong Xin had helped Shen Miao a lot, Luo Xueyan wanted to express her gratitude to Princess Rong Xin.
In order to prevent anything from happening on the way, Shen Qiu asked Ah Zhi and Mo Qing to go along. Even so, along the way, Shen Miao’s expression was not very relaxed. Seeing this, Jingzhe and Gu Yu thought that Shen Miao was worried about her safety on the way and forted her for a long time.
In the carriage, Shen Miao had been thinking about how to answer Princess Rong Xin if she asked about Xie Jingxing. However, Princess Rong Xin was a very cautious person, and once she was suspicious, it would be very difficult to dispel her suspicion.
Shen Miao felt a headache ing on.
Jingzhe smiled and said, “Miss, what are you thinking? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you like this.”
Shen Miao was slightly stunned. That’s right. Ever since she was reborn, her path had been especially smooth-sailing. Luo Xueyan, Shen Xin, and Shen Qiu were all prevented from repeating their previous fate. But what did others have to do with her? At this moment, she was racking her brains to help Xie Jingxing, but what was the relationship between her and Xie Jingxing? Did she have to go such a length to worry about him?
Shen Miao was a little frustrated. One of the voices in her mind said that this was all caused by Xie Jingxing and she should let him solve it himself. The other voice said that she shouldn’t leave Xie Jingxing to face this knotty matter alone.
Unknowingly, before Shen Miao could think of a solution, the carriage had already arrived at the entrance of the princess mansion. Almost all the servants in the princess mansion had an impression of Shen Miao, so they naturally weled her in respectfully. Shen Miao asked Mo Qing and the others to stay outside the mansion before walking in with the palace maid.
She was brought straight to Princess Rong Xin’s bedroom.
Although Princess Rong Xin was usually very low-key, the princess mansion was spacious and grand. However, ever since the death of her husband, Princess Rong Xin did not care much about these worldly possessions. Therefore, the bedroom was simple and even gave people a sense of desolation.
Princess Rong Xin was drinking the sweet soup sent by the kitchen. Seeing that Shen Miao had arrived, she instructed the servants to scoop a bowl for her. She smiled and said, “This is made by the new chef. He’s very good at making snacks and sweet soup. I tasted it and think it’s better than the ones made in the palace. Try it too.”
Shen Miao thanked Princess Rong Xin and picked up the bowl to taste it in small sips. She actually did not like sweet food, but for the sake of Princess Rong Xin, she did not refuse. As she drank, she observed Princess Rong Xin’s expression.
Princess Rong Xin looked much better than that day in the palace. Her face was very rosy and she seemed to be in a good mood. Shen Miao said with a smile, “Princess, you look in much better health.”
“Recently, I received a basket full of a rare herb. The kitchen makes medicine from it for me every day. It’s hard for me not to be healthy.” Princess Rong Xin sighed and said, “I’m really lucky. In the past, it was very difficult to find this herb. I didn’t expect to see so much of it at this time.” Her tone was filled with surprise.
