Chapter 174: Feelings Moved

The wind at night was really extremely cold. Xie Jing Xing only brought Shen Miao out of the Princess residence as the horse carriage from the Shen family was waiting outside. Shen Miao wanted to speak but Xie Jing Xing's figure disappeared from her side. It was Mo Qing and Ah Zhi who was somewhat surprise when she suddenly appeared at the residence's doors. Ah Zhi asked, "Why did Young Lady come out alone? How about the rest?"

Just as he spoke, Jing Zhe and Gu Yu ran over panting and only gave a sigh of relief when they saw Shen Miao. Jing Zhe said, "These servants were waiting outside but Yang GuGu said that you had come out and this servant thought that she was lying. It was only when one see that there was no one in the room then one came over to take a look. One did not think that Young Lady really came out." She then looked around and said in confusion, "However it was only a room and these servants were standing guard outside. Why did one did not see Young Lady coming out? Could it be that there are some secret passage in the Princess residence?"

Gu Yu lightly coughed to remind her not to talk nonsense. This was after all outside the Princess residence and even if there were secrets in the Princess residence, it would be the Princess residence's secret so how could it be said so unscrupulously by them?

Jing Zhe stuck her tongue out and looked at Shen Miao. Shen Miao's brows were tightly knitted and her expression was very solemn. Jing Zhe saw it and said softly, "Just now when one went in, Her Highness the Princess's expression was not very good. Young Lady, did you quarrel with the Her Highness the Princess?"

Shen Miao shook her head and thought about everything that happened today, unknowingly her head got bigger. She climbed up the horse carriage, "Return back first." If there is any matter then one would continue thinking about it upon returning to the Shen mansion. What had happened today was totally out of her expectations.

Just when the carriage was about to depart, Shen Miao could not help but to lift up the curtains and look back. The dark night had covered everything as there was not even a trace of moonlight, thus nothing could be seen.

She sighed softly.

However at a corner near the Princess residence, the purple clad youth silently watched as the horse carriage left.

Gao Yang no longer moved his folding fan and instead kept it at his waist. He looked at that handsome youth in front and his expression became a little complicated. He asked, "Is it worth it?"

"There will always be such a day." Xie Jing Xing said indifferently.

"Isn't it a pity?"

Xie Jing Xing's lips slightly raised as his masked covered his appearance and expression. Like usual, it made others feel the slight sarcasm and some disdain.

He said, "It is only the end of fate."

Gao Yang no longer spoke and only shook his head after a moment and patted Xie Jing Xing's shoulder.

A few servants came out from the Princess residence and were carrying some things in a basket. They poured its content onto the floor before throwing the basket on the ground.

One of the servants felt it was a pity, "This thing cost a lot of money and if one sell it to the medical hall, one would even make a profit. It is really a pity to throw it away."

"What do you know." The servant by the side glared at her, "One do not know if this thing has poison. If there is poison then it would be inviting trouble if one were to sell it. Don't look at it any more, let's leave."

The two servants then turned around and returned to the Princess residence and left the lone basket on the ground.

However one had knew that these were the 'coincidentally' received herbs that the medical hall sent over for Princess Rong Xin's heart illness. However at this moment it was abandoned like used shoes and even had the suspicion of being 'poisoned'.
