Chapter 451 Hostility

The girls all walked into the garden under Princess Hu's lead. Because she was a weak and frail woman, her steps were very slow as if she was being very careful to make sure that she would not fall. There were several girls surrounding him, acting as if they were the closes to the princess.

It didn't take long before they reached the garden where several tables and chairs had been prepared.

"Please take a seat, everyone." Princess Hu smiled.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Your Highness is very kind and attentive."

The girls didn't forget to bootlick and threw many praises towards Princess Hu as they began to take a seat.

The garden itself was quite big. There were only several trees at the edge but there were many flowers located in various places. The placement caused the area to be filled with heavy scent of flower. At the other side, there was a lake with a rather large bridge for them to cross over to the other side.

There were not many people who were willing to cross the bridge at this time, though. It was a bit cold.

Nan Hua watched leisurely while looking around her. She sensed someone watching her intently from the main hall as her eyes deepened slightly. It seemed that there were still people who were keen on targeting her even when she did nothing.

Well, it didn't matter.

She would handle them one by one.

Not far from her, Shangguan Die and Shangguan Mi were standing. The chairs were not enough for all of them, so a portion of them were still standing including these two. Shangguan Mi was a bit late because she wanted to attract some people's attention while Shangguan Die was purposely waiting for Shangguan Mi.

The two of them were silently glaring daggers at each other even though they didn't do anything right now.

"You must be very happy to be able to sit near the young commander."

If she said that she was not interested, the girls would be speaking about it when her scheme to enter Long Qian Xing's Residence came to light. At that moment, she would be labeled as schemer or liar or many others unsettling words.

There was no way Shangguan Mi would want to have that kind of reputation.

"Don't talk to me, Sister."

"Heh." Shangguan Die chuckled. She looked to the front as Princess Hu began to pay attention to Nan Hua as the corner of her lips curled up to form a sneer. "If you really want to, I can actually help you."

"I don't need your help..." Shangguan Mi then realized that she was saying things wrongly. She snorted. "I meant, don't misunderstand, Sister."

Some girls near them had listened to their conversation and silently thought that the Shangguan Family was quite complicated. They didn't expect to be able to hear such rumor when they were only staying here.

It seemed that their decision to pick the seat near the lake was correct.

They could hear the hottest rumor.

The only thing they regretted was that they couldn't speak about it loudly because they might end up offending Shangguan Family.

Really unfortunate.

"Your Highness, have you gotten better recently?" one of the ladies asked in concerned tone as if she was really worried. They themselves knew that Princess Hu was not exactly close to anyone there for some various reasons.

Princess Hu nodded leisurely. "Yes, thank you for your concern."

"Did you have a long rest, Your Highness?"

"If the palace is not a good place for you to rest, did you also go to another location to rest, Your Highness?"

"Also?" Princess Hu caught onto that word and looked at the young girl who spoke with her clear dark eyes.

The girl looked awkward then raised her hand to cover her mouth. "This one just heard from Second Young Miss Nan that her sister had come back after taking care of her poor health."
