Chapter 240 The Differences Between the Two Sisters

Qin Wanru didn’t think that she would really confront Wen Xichi and Qi Rongzhi. They didn’t go away too and stood nearby a tablet and chatted heatedly. But after taking a careful look at them, she found that only Qi Rongzhi chatted heatedly, while Wen Xichi only smiled politely and nodded aside without any words.

After entering the purple bamboo forest, Chu Liuchen let Qin Wanru go first. He left for some other businesses, so Qin Wanru would see Wen Xichi and Qi Rongzhi, but Qin Wanru didn’t feel embarrassed. Since they had met, she wanted to see what they were doing.

Upon seeing Qin Wanru coming from behind, Qi Rongzhi’s face changed slightly, and she looked back nervously. She did not find the figure of the man she just saw, so she felt a little panic.

Before she had accidents, she was staring at Qin Wanru and that man. Fortunately she met Wen Xichi, otherwise she didn’t know what would happen to her. Thinking about this, she looked at Qin Wanru in a more alert way.

Qin Wanru came to them and saluted to Wen Xichi. Then she smiled slightly and tended to walk away. But she was called to stop by Wen Xichi. “Second Miss Qin also came here to see these inscriptions on the tablet?”

“I hear that these inscriptions on the tablet are the most famous in Huaguang Temple, which preserves some treasured scrolls of calligraphy or painting of some past well-known people and monks. Now that I have come here, it is natural that I would like to come and see!” Qin Wanru smiled slightly and said very politely.

Huaguang Temple had a long history. Some inscriptions were left there for a long time too. Even after experiencing wars, they had been preserved. But some of them were damaged just as the tablet in front of them. It had been destroyed greatly and even the autograph was erased, as a result of which nobody knew who wrote it.

It was an epigraph. But most of the inscriptions could not be seen clearly. Only a few characters that could be seen clearly seemed to be of strong power, which tended to make people marvel at it when they saw it.

“It is said that this inscription on the tablet was written by a master of Qin dynasty six hundred years ago, “Wen Xichi said with a gentle smile.

Having heard him saying that, it was not suitable for Qin Wanru to go away. She stood still and looked at this inscription. The reason why this master of Qin dynasty six hundred years ago was called master was because of his excellent calligraphy. Qin Wanru had seen a true work of this master of Qin dynasty in Wen Xichi’s study in her last life and knew that he admired this master’s calligraphy very much.

“I… actually, I don’t know much about it.” Qin Wanru shook her head.

“Yes, sister Wanru likes playing most and dislikes calligraphy and other things like this.” Qi Rongzhi squeezed into the middle of the two people jealously and just blocked in front of Qin Wanru.

She meant that Qin Wanru was too boorish to know these elegant arts.

Qin Wanru didn’t want to argue with Qi Rongzhi. She stepped back and saluted to Wen Xichi sideways. “Third Young Master Wen, excuse me. I’d like to go forward.”

“Second Miss, please go ahead!” Wen Xichi said with smile. There was great confusion in his brooding eyes. “Didn’t this Second Miss Qin have feelings for him?”

“Or didn’t Qin’s Mansion have any plans about him?”

Seeing that Qin Wanru had left, Qi Rongzhi was very delightful. But when she saw Wen Xichi’s thoughtful eyes falling on Qin Wanru, she became more and more jealous for a while. She knew at this time she couldn’t say too much, so she could only say with a smile, “Third Young Master Wen, could you please tell me something about this master of Qin dynasty? I used to see some introductions about this person but I didn’t know him in detail.”

“Actually I also don’t know much about him!” Wen Xichi’s eyesight fell on the face of Qi Rongzhi with a slight smile.

“Third Young Master Wen must know more than me. Third Young Master Wen, please solve my puzzles!” Qi Rongzhi showed her delicately pretty smile and her face was flushed because of the gaze of Wen Xichi, which made her more delicate and charming.

Qi Rongzhi was quite confident about her appearance.

“Now that I will say something that I know…” Wen Xichi’s voice came slowly from behind and finally disappeared without a trace. At that time Qin Wanru was very far away from them.

She was gratitude to Wen Xichi and wanted to pull him out of the tragedy of his last life. From the former chat with Wen Xichi, she knew that he must suspect of this thing. So he didn’t say the thing about his younger female cousin and his second elder brother, and only asked again and again why Qin Wanru would know it. Therefore, he must have known some of facts.

In this case, with the intelligence of Wen Xichi, it was impossible for him to be plotted by those two people.

Qin Wanru had helped him wipe out the clouds of family bond that blindfolded his eyes, then she didn’t need to be worried about him. Although he was sick in the last life, Wen Xichi still gave her the impression that he was very intelligent. Had it not been for his sick, there would have been a place for him in some of the ups and downs of the last life.

In this life, she could do nothing more than this. Besides, Wen Xichi had suspected her, so she couldn’t contact with Wen Xichi frequently at present in order to avoid other accidents.

This was the idea of Qin Wanru and that was why she turned around and left when Qi Rongzhi spoke.

The purple bamboo forest was very large and the tablets were located in this forest disorderly. It was enclosed with walls and the tablets were all surrounded by the walls. The purple bamboo forest enclosed by walls was so big that Qin Wanru had not walked out of the forest after such a long walk.

Although the cortile in the purple bamboo forest was quite large, there were a few people in it. All along the way, she only saw Wen Xichi and Qi Rongzhi. The reason why Qi Rongzhi could enter into this inside forest was certainly because of Wen Xichi. And Qin Wanru was taken in by Chu Liuchen, otherwise she couldn’t even enter into the door!

The wind blew through the layers of bamboo leaves. The purple bamboo lines under the green leaves added some primitive simplicity and elegance to the forest.

After having wandered for a while, Qin Wanru had not seen the border of the forest, so she went out with Yujie, not confronting Wen Xichi and Qi Rongzhi. She didn’t know whether they had gone back or deep into the forest. Mountain roads were crossed and there was not only one road to enter in or go out. So it was common that they did not meet with each other.

When Qin Wanru went back to her own room after a long walk, she was exhausted. After cleaning up, she sat in front of the window with eyes closed casually and let Yujie help her dry her hair.

After sitting for a while, she felt very quiet. She opened her eyes and found that Yujie was about to speak but said nothing. She smiled and asked her, “Do you have anything to say?”

“Miss, Prince Chen is very dangerous!” Yujie said nervously after Qin Wanru asked her.

“I know. We don’t talk about him!” Qin Wanru nodded her head and closed her eyes, unwilling to continue this topic. How could people like Chu Liuchen not be dangerous!

“How about Miss Qi?” Yujie became anxious. She knew that things about Prince Chen couldn’t be talked by her as a servant girl, but Qi Rongzhi harbored malicious intentions obviously too.

“Let her do whatever she wants to do!” Qin Wanru smiled slightly. “Now she has almost destroyed one of her servant girls as a waste move. Qi Rongzhi would not be willing to give it up!”

“Was it Madam of Duke Xing and Madam Di that cooperated to impute this curse to you and Madam Dowager? Madam Di had her reason to do this. But why should Madam of Duke Xing gang up against you and Madam Dowager?” Yujie asked with confuse. She had dried up the towel in her hands and was combing Qin Wanru’s long and beautiful hair.

Her long hair was black and soft, which made her small face without any makeup become more and more delicate and charming.

“As to Madam of Duke Xing, she might have to assault me!” Qin Wanru blinked her long eyelashes and rolled her clear eyes slightly with a colder smile.

The hatred between her and Duke Xing’s Mansion was doomed from the last life. So after having entered the capital city, she was always very careful, afraid of stepping into the trap of Madam of Duke Xing.

At first, she thought that with her former plan, Madam of Duke Xing and Madam Di wouldn’t gang up with each other so quickly. But she was wrong. Although Qin’s Mansion had been in such a mess, Madam of Duke Xing still had the ability to order about Madam Di and asked her to utilize Qi Rongzhi as the bait in order to deal with Qin Wanru.

Madam of Duke Xing had taken a plate out before and her goal must be Qin Wanru. But Qin Wanru didn’t know how Madam of Duke Xing eliminated the possibility of Qin Yuru. Even if that seal was related to Duke Xing’s Mansion, when this seal appeared on the clothes, there were three people connecting to it. Why Madam of Duke Xing asserted that it was Qin Wanru who did it?

She must have ignored one place!

What had she ignored? And how did Madam of Duke Xing distinguish her and Qin Yuru right away and know that she had to deal with Qin Wanru instead of Qin Yuru?

Her beautiful eyebrows which were like salix leaves couldn’t help but frown slightly. This was the point that she mostly couldn’t figure out now.

“Miss, why should Madam of Duke Xing assault you? Is there any hatred between you and her? Even though that you saved Master Hao who had been assaulted by her destroyed her plan, she couldn’t aggress you all the time!” Yujie said angrily with puzzle. People around Qin Wanru had known that this Madam of Duke Xing was assaulting Qin Wanru.

“Yes, why does she always attack me rather than Qin Yuru?” Qin Wanru also couldn’t figure it out and muttered to herself unconsciously.

“Who knows what her idea is. If she wants to assault people from General’s Mansion, First Miss should be the person who she deals with. Maybe it is because Madam of Duke Xing tends to bully the weak and fear the strong. She doesn’t dare to bully First Miss, so she plots against Second Miss again and again,” Yujie thought and said.

A trace of coldness flashed through the depth of Qin Wanru’s eyes. Madam of Duke Xing wanted to assault her instead of Qin Yuru was certainly not because she bullied the weak and feared the strong. Although Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion could be called as the upstart, the grade and background of it were not high and strong enough to compete with Duke Xing’s Mansion.

It was impossible for Madam of Duke Xing to take it into consideration when she wanted to assault someone!

It must be after she had checked the information of Qin Wanru and Qin Yuru that she wanted and determined to assault Qin Wanru. There must be something of Qin Wanru that was absolutely different from that of Qin Yuru. But how could she determine that Qin Yuru was not the person she should assault at the first sight?

If Qin Wanru couldn’t split the fog in front of her, she couldn’t find the key points. So she was quite passive in the competition with Madam of Duke Xing.

However, now that Madam of Duke Xing had firstly stretched out one of her feet and then Qin Wanru would firstly step on her foot and made plans later.

Originally, there was still a little troublesome, but now Qi Rongzhi had interfered with it, which was bound to make the situation more chaotic. The benefits to Qin Wanru were not a few…
