"Two years ago she also came over. At that time Xi GuGu who was by the Princess's side also sent her back to the residence. She is surnamed Shen."
The maid at the outermost who was trying to recall suddenly had a flash of inspiration and slapped her head, "I remember that Young Lady's name. That Young Lady is not the Di daughter of the Formidable Great General, Shen Miao!"
Everyone was first enlightened before their eyes became very interesting.
They naturally recognised Shen Miao. Recently there was an uproar in the Ding capital. She had disappeared for three days and Shen Xin was even willing to offer ten thousand taels of gold to save her. Everyone guessed that Shen Miao had met with an accident and did not think that the main topic of discussion would actually appear in the Princess' residence.
What was Shen Miao doing in the Princess' residence?
…
Shen Miao sat in the main hall and the maids came over to serve her tea and snacks, but at the end she could feel some eyes that were quietly sizing her up. Shen Miao calmly accepted it. If someone recognised her, they would naturally find it strange that she would appear in the Princess' residence.
But there was no choice. Just like what Xie Jing Xing said, she had returned to the residence alone and could not stop the rumours from happening. One had to find a person of high status and power to prove it for her. The last lantern festival, Princess Rong Xin had proven it for her and this time she still needed Princess Rong Xin's help.
There was no choice. Princess Rong Xin was an upright person and everyone knew that she was fair to the point of being unreasonable. If it was said from Princess Rong Xin's mouth, no one would doubt it.
After a moment, footsteps were heard from behind. Shen Miao turned around and saw Princess Rong Xin who was being supported by a female official walking over slowly.
Shen Miao could not help but be surprised.
The person who came was wearing an autumn coloured robe with a cloak on the outside. Most likely there was some powder on her face but it could not hide her old age and haggard look. The last time Shen Miao saw Princess Rong Xin two years ago, she was still an energetic woman but now it was as if her soul was taken away in one night, making one's heart feel a little sad when looking at her.
Even in the previous lifetime when Shen Miao reached the end, when Princess Rong Xin had really aged, she did not have such a haggard look. And Shen Miao was well aware of the reason for all of this. It seemed that the news of Xie Jing Xing's death was a huge blow to Princess Rong Xin that she had become this haggard in two years.
She got up and greeted Princess Rong Xin.
When Princess Rong Xin saw her, she revealed a nostalgic expression and there was a smile on her lips, "Not seeing you for two years. At that time General Shen left in a hurry and BenGong did not have the time to let people send you some farewell gifts. When you returned to the capital, BenGong caught a cold and did not attend the tribute banquet, thus there was no chance to see you." She sat down in front of the table and indicated for Shen Miao to sit down.
Shen Miao nodded her head slightly, "It should be this official's daughter who came to visit."
"Previously I knew that you are good looking." Princess Rong Xin smiled as she looked at her, "Seeing you now, it is what BenGong's heart thought. Since young you are a beauty and now you are more outstanding. If this consort's nephew was still alive … "Her voice slowly trailed off and a trace of pain flashed through her eyes, but she couldn't continue.
Shen Miao also did not know what to say.
It was Princess Rong Xin who started laughing again, "BenGong always say such unhappy words. Every time, he would tell himself not to think about it, but in the end, he would always think about it. Who told you to be unhappy with this consort, you … Are also sad. BenGong only cared about my own sadness and did not think about how you would feel after hearing it. It is really BenGong's fault. "
Princess Rong Xin was such a tough person in her bones, but she actually apologised to others. Shen Miao's heart was somewhat surprised but there was even more sympathy. Xie Jing Xing's identity could not be explained to Princess Rong Xin, but from Princess Rong Xin's point of view, the nephew that accompanied her for so many years died so miserably on the battlefield, one could imagine the pain in her heart.
Princess Rong Xin smiled, "BenGong have heard of your matters. Do not worry, two years ago BenGong helped you, this time BenGong will naturally help you."
Shen Miao only said that she was kidnapped by criminals, but because of the conflict with the residence of the Marquis of Lin An, she was saved by Xie Jing Xing's original secret guard. Because Xie Jing Xing's secret guard had seen Shen Miao before, he extended a helping hand, but if one were to return to the Shen family rashly, it would cause rumours, thus one had to ask Princess Rong Xin to come forward.
As long as Xie Jing Xing was mentioned, Princess Rong Xin would be exceptionally tolerant. In addition, that so called secret guard of Xie Jing Xing really had the token that Xie Jing Xing gave him, so after Princess Rong Xin personally saw it, she no longer had any doubts. In addition, she had a good impression of Shen Miao, so naturally she readily agreed to help.
"This official's daughter thanks Your Princess Highness." Shen Miao said, "This official's daughter is really ashamed to trouble Your Princess Highness every time."
"What kind of trouble is this?" Princess Rong Xin smiled bitterly, "Originally when Jing Xing was around, whenever one made a mistake, one would like to go to the Princess residence. Which time the trouble was not bigger than the Heavens, but one did not see him feel a trace of guilt. Originally one thought that BenGong would treat it as doing a good deed, and when BenGong is old, it would be BenGong's turn to find trouble for him. Who knew … "Princess Rong Xin's smile was somewhat ugly," Now I would like him to find trouble for BenGong, but one cannot wait any longer. "
