Shen Dong Ling nodded her head but smiled bitterly in her heart. She did not know why but she felt that Shen Miao would not have 'already returned', and most likely Shen Miao did not intend to come to Yi Feng Pavilion from the start.
Shen Miao … This opponent was more terrifying than she thought.
…
At the other end, on the streets, Luo Tan was sitting in the horse carriage and wiped the sweat on her forehead, "What to do now? One delay and it has been delayed for so long. If one rush to Yi Feng Pavilion now, one fear that it is already too late."
Just now when their Shen family's horse carriage was travelling in a bustling area of the city, they accidentally bumped into an old woman. That old woman immediately fainted. The Shen family was not a small family in the Ding capital and Shen Xin was a respected hero, so naturally one had to cherish one's feathers. Shen Miao and Luo Tan did not have any reason to leave the old woman alone. They instructed the guards to send the old woman to the nearest medical hall and personally watched the doctor take the old woman's pulse and said that she was fine until the old woman woke up.
Their action naturally won the approval of many commoners as they felt that young ladies from the General residence did not have any arrogance and instead were considerate of the commoners, which was a rare character.
It was true that they had earned praises but it also delayed a lot of time. If they were to rush to Yi Feng Pavilion now, it would be noon by the time they arrived.
Shen Miao pondered for a moment before saying, "Not going."
"Huh?" Luo Tan was still thinking about how to solve this problem when she heard Shen Miao say that and could not help but be surprised, "Why not going? Doesn't Biao Youngest Sister hate people who go back on their words? "
Shen Miao smiled, "One must pay attention to the time and place when tasting the incense. The best time in Yi Feng Pavilion is in the morning when the air is the freshest and one would naturally feel refreshed when tasting the incense at noon or in the afternoon. The Heaven and Earth are chaotic and it is not easy to taste the fragrance. One cannot let others wait for us. This would not be beautiful. " She stretched out her hand to call Mo Qing over and let him send a messenger pigeon to Yi Feng Pavilion. She and Luo Tan would not be able to go due to the delay.
Even though Luo Tan had some regrets, she originally did not have any interest in tasting the incense. It was rare for her to come out for a stroll so she wanted to pull Shen Miao along.
Shen Miao saw that it was still early and with Ah Chi and the rest of the guards by her side, there was no harm in strolling around so she agreed.
Who knew that Luo Tan was in high spirits and after this stroll, it was already close to evening when they returned to the Shen residence.
Their carriage had just arrived at the entrance of the mansion when the manservant in front of the door smiled and said, "It's good that Miss has returned. Madam and Master have just returned as well."
"Just in time for dinner!" Luo Tan smiled as she took Shen Miao's hand and stepped through the door.
Who knew that when they entered the main hall, Luo Xue Yan was talking to Shen Xin and when she saw Shen Miao and Luo Tan returning, she was surprised for a moment before giving a big sigh of relief, "Jiao Jiao, Tan-er, where did you all go?"
"Today, Lady Wang of the Minister Counsellor's Residence invited us to Yi Feng Pavilion to taste some incense. On the way there, the carriage collided with an old woman. My cousin and I were busy taking care of the old woman and were delayed. Hence, we decided to excuse ourselves and not go. My cousin and I were just strolling around. Father, Mother, did something happen? "
Shen Miao said that Shen Dong Ling was the 'Lady Wang of the Minister Counsellor's residence' and it was obvious that she was deliberately drawing a clear line with Shen Dong Ling.
Luo Xue Yan did not notice this and only took a deep breath, "It scared me to death. Today the Crown Prince of Qin was assassinated at Yi Feng Pavilion and all the related people were arrested and sent to the prison for interrogation. That Wang Bi said that you were also present but no one saw it. Your Father and I rushed back and when we saw that you were not around, we thought that something happened. "
