No matter how prosperous the city is, there are poor people living in it. Therefore, in this magnificent mansion, there is also a ruined courtyard which is worse than that of a small family, and this courtyard is obviously a residence of Jiujiu.
Jiujiu kicks the messy weeds beside the door, curls her mouth, and kicks back the gate with her foot. She frightens the servants behind her who sneak all the way.
The eldest lady has got a temper.
It is strange that the old lady used to bully, but today n.o.body dares to ask her, the princess was sent back, and she seems awake, but she actually has no response for anything.
According to the people who sent the princess back, the princess was mad and was cured by the elder lady.
This situation is really weird. Usually the servants of Ruan mansion take Qingqing as their master. But now she remains unconsciousness, which makes them have no idea.
"Go back and ask the princess what to do." A servant suggests.
"The princess is still not awake." The other one shakes his head.
"But we should be with her, even if the situation changes, the princess is still the princess. She is the future Princess and concubine, so do not forget that today the seventh prince sent her back." Qingqing"s intimate maidservant says angrily and annoyingly.
The crowd nod one after another, and finally calm down, but somehow, they still do not dare to enter Jiujiu"s broken courtyard, and within a minute, they all slip away.
When Jiujiu sees that all the followers are gone, she gives a light breath and somewhat releases herself for finally having time to rest. According to her memory, she rushes to the bedroom as fast as she could.
At this moment, Princess Changle comes out of the palace. She goes straight to Ruan Mansion. As soon as she gets there, all the servants and maidservants who are upset and have no idea of what they are going to do surround her.
"What about Lotus princess?" Princess Changle asks while walks like the wind. She promises Qingqing to help her get rid of Jiujiu, but in vain. She is also upset for that.
"Our princess is in trouble. She is awake but doesn"t recognize anyone, and has no response for anything." answers Caiwu, Qingqing"s maidservant, who is very familiar with Princess Changle and knows the relations.h.i.+p between her master and Princess Changle, so she doesn"t hide any information, but she also suspects, "The Princess doesn"t really have epilepsy, does she?"
"Epilepsy?" Princess Changle twists her eyebrows. Jiujiu says in the street that Qingqing has epilepsy. She also hears about it, but she doesn"t believe it. If it is true, then everything will be changed. So she is in a little bit hurry. "Guide me to see her."
They rushes into Qingqing"s residence and enters the bed room.
"Sister Lianhua!"
Princess Changle rushes to her bed with a few steps, but Qingqing does not respond at all. She feels worried grabs Qingqing"s hand, and shakes it vigorously: "Sister Lotus, what"s wrong with you?"
However, Qingqing still seems to have no response.
"Caiwu!"
Caiwu follows her and says hurriedly, "This is the way the princess comes back. Please, please help her. If the Lotus princess keeps unconscious, what shall we do?"
She is right, if it goes like that, it will waste her time! Because of Qingqing promised to make a medicine for her.
"Caiwu, take my waist card to invite imperial doctor from the palace."
"I will go right now!" after hearing the order, Caiwu nods hurriedly, takes the waist card, and hurriedly rushes to the palace.
Princess Changle looks at Qingqing who is in a coma and sits in her chair uneasily. There is no time to wait, she should kill Jiujiu as soon as possible, or the agreement between her and Qingqing will be broken.
"What about Ruan Jiujiu?"
A maidservant answers, "When the elder lady comes back, she goes into the yard and never comes out."
"Back to the yard?" Princess Changle"s eyes are full of hatred, not for the sake of Qingqing, but for Jiujiu who whipped her before, which makes her just want to sc.r.a.pe Jiujiu to revenge.
If it wasn"t Qingqing"s magic medicine, she would surely have scares.
"I will have a look of her!"
Princess Changle has always been familiar with Ruan mansion, but Jiujiu"s courtyard is another world of it. When she went there, she could not help but hum, "What a broken courtyard. Ruan Jiujiu has such a taste!"
The servants could not help feeling guilty. It is not Jiujiu who does not choose a better one. It is Qingqing who drove her here. The original courtyard of Qingqing is Jiujiu"s residence.
"Ruan Jiujiu! Are you alive?"
Princess Changle wants to push the door and break in. Suddenly, she remembers Jiujiu"s whip. So she just bits her lip and shouts outside the door.
At the moment, Jiujiu is cleaning up her wounds of legs indoors. In fact, it is not only on her legs, but also on her arms. Some of them were beaten by Ruan Qingqing, some by her followers, and none of them shows mercy, so the wounds are not slight injuries.
As she is grinding her teeth, she hears the voice of Princess Changle.
Jiujiu bits her teeth, and the annoying voice doesn"t stop it.
"Neigh!"
When standing up, she falls back in great pain.
She looks at the wound on her body. She has been cleaning up the wound since she returned to her room. They are almost cleared up. But even if the wounds were wrapped up with good medicine, it would take several days for her to recover. How can she deal with Princess Changle now?
But she cannot hide!
Looking around, Jiujiu suddenly drops her eyes on her fingers.
"Ruan Jiujiu, you won"t really die, will you? Then I will come in!" Princess Changle sounds out, and has someone open the door. She hesitates for a while, and walks in.
"What happened when Ruan Jiujiu came back?" Princess Changle asks a servant.
The servant answers, "When the elder lady comes back, she looks having injured and feeble."
He is telling the truth. Jiujiu is exhausted when she walks back to Ruan mansion. She is not in a good situation. But why the servants do not dare to provoke her at that time?
At that time, Jiujiu is so terrible that they dare not go forward.
Thinking about this, the servant wants to remind Princess Changle, but Princess Changle doesn"t care about it. She just wants to make sure that Ruan Jiujiu could not resist her.
She walks to the door with a few steps, and then pushes it open. At a glance she sees Jiujiu sitting on a dilapidated couch staring at her.
At first, when meeting with a pair of cold and ruthless eyes of Jiujiu, Princess Changle takes a deep breath and inexplicably moves a step back.
After that she realizes that she has lost her momentum in front of Jiujiu, which makes her very annoyed.
"Ruan Jiujiu, why do you look at me in such a rude way?"
"My dear princess, I am looking at you because there is black on your forehead. I fear that your life will not last long. I am really afraid of being involved by you, so you"d better get out of here quickly." Jiujiu looks at Princess Changle with a tricky smile, her words truly vicious.
