The young maidservant who had been in to pass the message pulled up the curtain and spoke to Senior Servant Qin. "Madam, you're up. Please allow Senior Servant Qin to speak inside."

Then, she turned her head to Jiang Wan, and crisply said, "Madam said that there's something on today, so I'll skip Fourth Miss's rest. Today's cold, so Fourth Miss should return early to rest."

"Thank you mother for your grace." Jiang Wan stood under the eaves of the main house and smiled at the direction of the back room. Her face was expressionless as she straightened her back and walked back.

Qin mama stood behind her, smiling and nodding as she watched her departing figure. Only then did the young maid pull up the curtain and enter the main house.

She followed the young maid into the room. When she saw née Qin still sitting by the dressing table, she knelt down and kowtowed. "Madam, this old servant pays her respects."

Currently, née Qin was picking out jewelry from her jewellery box. When she saw Senior Servant Qin, her eyes grew warm and she said with some excitement, "So it's Senior Servant Qin."

"That's me." Senior Servant Qin first stood up, then knelt straight down and kowtowed three more times to née Qin. "This old servant has kowtowed for the Empress."

When née Qin saw him, she quickly wiped her eyes with her sleeve and got up to help Senior Servant Qin up. Is His Highness Duke Jane well? "

"Good, good, it's all good." Qin mama stood up in excitement as well and said, "Right now, the Empress is in charge of large and small matters in the backyard of the crown prince's residence. Even the crown prince is very satisfied with this arrangement.

It was said that a thousand things couldn't be worn without flattery. When née Qin heard Senior Servant Qin's flattery, she felt extremely satisfied. Then, she brought her to the banquet hall and sat on the kang next to the window.

Even though she had taken quite a few beauties from the crown prince's residence, Third Wife was the Empress's mother. If she hadn't arranged for her to be by the First Miss's side, she wouldn't have her current glory.

Senior Servant Qin smiled as she chatted about insignificant topics with née Qin. However, she cast a glance at the maidservants standing at the side.

née Qin knew that Qin mama wanted to speak with her privately, so she ordered the servants in the room to leave her and Qin mama alone.

"I just ran into Fourth Miss outside, I didn't expect her to be so beautiful." Seeing that the room was empty, that Senior Servant Qin lowered her voice and said, "Looking at her submissive appearance, she's probably someone easy to deal with."

"That day, I received a letter from the Empress at the Zhenjiang Manor. After I learned of the Empress's plans, I felt that this girl was the best candidate. I also knew very well what personality she had kept by my side all these years." née Qin proudly said to Senior Servant Qin.

"Madame's judgement must be correct." Qin mama fawned with a smile. "I just don't know if my wife's free tomorrow?" "Your Highness, you should know that Mrs Cui's stomach has been expanding like a balloon recently. Many people say that she looks like a baby boy, but time waits for no man!"

"Tomorrow?" The Qin family frowned, "I'm a bit late, but I have nothing else to do here, so let's set it for tomorrow."

"Alright, this old servant will go back now and capture the Empress. Tomorrow morning, I will send a carriage over to pick you up and have a chat with the misses." When Senior Servant Qin saw that Jiang's orders were almost done, a smile blossomed on her face.

By the time the news reached the Pure Heart Pavilion, it was already a quarter of an hour after Qin mama had left.

Hearing the cheers from Jiang Shu downstairs, Jiang Wan, who was sitting upstairs, felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. She couldn't even copy down the scriptures she used to clear her heart, so she simply stopped writing and walked around.

Clove and Jasmine both walked in with faces full of excitement, but they only heard Clove say excitedly: "Fourth Miss, have you heard about it? Madam will be bringing you and the Fifth Miss to the Crown Prince's Palace as guests tomorrow. "

"When did such a good thing ever happen to our Fourth Miss before?" Jasmine also had a face full of pride as she said, "We have to let those little fellows in the mansion see that our fourth young miss is also highly regarded by our wife."

When Jiang Wan heard their words, she could not laugh. She could not tell them about the feeling of a man being a fish in the water.

At this moment, the two maidservants had already started arguing about what kind of clothes, comb, and accessories they should wear for the fourth miss tomorrow. However, there was only one core content: It must be beautiful.

Jiang Wan shook her head as she heard this, saying, "It's not like you guys don't know the temperament of Fifth Miss and Madam. Normally, they don't like people who dress up as if they were above them, so don't think that you can show off tomorrow. Be careful, when we come back, we won't have any good results."

Clove and Jasmine thought that this was indeed the case, and the two of them immediately shriveled up like frosted eggplants.

On the second day, just as they were about to leave, Jun Yutang sent someone over to tell the two ladies to move quickly. They decided to set out at the time of Chen Zheng's departure.

Compared to the chaos downstairs, Jiang Wan appeared to be much more relaxed.

Yesterday she had chosen for herself a goose-yellow, clean face, a moon-white, silk skirt, and a set of red and silver pearl heads.

In her previous life, Jiang Wan discovered that her skin color wasn't suitable for wearing yellow. Dress of color, no matter how yellow. The color of her skin was not too good when she wore it. However, in order to prevent the Qin family from discovering this secret, she had even applied a thin layer of palace powder on her face, lightly applying rouge. Her originally pearly white face instantly became unnatural, but no one could find fault with it.

Jiang Wan looked at the shadowy figure in the bronze mirror with great satisfaction. She was going to stir up trouble today.

After finishing her makeup, she quietly waited upstairs. It wasn't until the first hour of dawn that Jiang Shu's somewhat exaggerated shout came from downstairs, "Quickly, quickly, you guys didn't know how to wake me up earlier, causing me to be in a hurry … "Look, this shirt wasn't chosen and her hair wasn't combed properly either. The rouge on her face wasn't even wiped properly …"

Hearing Jiang Zhuzhe's complaints, Jiang Wan slowly stood up and smiled slightly at Clove and Jasmine beside her. "Do you still remember what I told you today?"

"Remember, no matter what happens, one of us must stay by your side." Clove and Jasmine looked at each other, then said each word slowly.

Jiang Wan nodded, her heart full of sadness for being on the battlefield. She sighed and said, "Then let's go as well."
