CHAPTER 422 (1): WHO IS IT
Translation: Rakumon
“Replying to the Princess Consort, she has a slim figure, and possesses a pair of sword-like eyebrows along with a heroic aura.” The guard respectfully answered. Since they were a rare trait in won, the visitor’s eyebrows had been her most morable trait.
Hearing about the heroic sword-like eyebrows, Su Xi-er was reminded of soone ー i Jinxiu. Isn’t she in Nanzhao? Did she co to Beimin?
“So it’s her. I’ll go out and take a look.” Su Xi-er walked out of the room.
Although Pei Qianhao didn’t realise who the woman outside was, he didn’t say anything after seeing Su Xi-er’s confidence. He had enough faith in her to know that she would only head out if she knew who it was.
Clad in a gold-trimd crimson dress, the hem of her clothing fluttered in the wind as she walked.
Outside the entrance of the residence, Su Xi-er saw i Jinxiu dressed in coarse clothes. As I thought, it’s indeed her.
i Jinxiu yelled when she caught sight of Su Xi-er. “Su Xi-er, it’s great that you’re fine!”
When the guard heard i Jinxiu calling Su Xi-er by her na, he imdiately berated, “Audacious woman! How can you directly call the Princess Consort by her na?”
“It’s fine, I know her.” Su Xi-er smiled at the guard, then looked towards i Jinxiu. “Let’s talk in the main hall.”
i Jinxiu nodded and quickly followed Su Xi-er to the main hall. Watching Su Xi-er’s back, i Jinxiu found that the forr had a different air about her. She was very beautiful in the past, but there’s now also a sense of elegant charm to her. I can’t tell what it is; maybe it’s just the unique aura of Princess Consort Hao.
Ruo Yuan and Hong Li were already waiting beside the main hall, and were thrown for a loop when they saw Su Xi-er walking in with another woman. Who is she?
“Ruo Yuan, Hong Li, quickly boil a pot of good tea and bring it here.” Su Xi-er instructed them.
“This servant will get to it now.” Ruo Yuan and Hong Li respectfully replied before swiftly walking towards the backyard, understanding that they still needed to show the necessary formalities in front of others.
i Jinxiu looked at Su Xi-er. I’m still not quite used to calling her ‘Princess Consort’, but it’s not good for to directly call her by her na.
Noticing i Jinxiu’s awkwardness, Su Xi-er heartily laughed. “Miss i, you have a casual and straightforward personality. Everyone in the residence is on our side, so you can drop the formalities.”
i Jinxiu heaved a sigh of relief. “Seeing that you’re fine, I can finally be relieved. I had originally planned to inform you of Prince Yun’s arrival in Beimin, but I ran into Commandery Prince Xie on the way. Deceived by him, I was held captive in his residence. It was only thanks to the Commandery Princess that I was able to escape.”
I didn’t expect i Jinxiu to have gone through so much, even being captured by Xie Yun. Seeing her clear eyes, Su Xi-er could tell that i Jinxiu had been sincerely worried. “Miss i, many thanks for your kind intentions. How is your dical clinic doing?”
i Jinxiu laughed unrestrainedly as she waved her hand. “Let’s not talk about that. You already know about making the dicinal powder for that Pei Anru, and you probably also know that Lord Pei asked to treat the young lady afterwards. However, I wasn’t able to completely undo the effects of the powder, and Lord Pei kept captive in the Pei Residence. After all that, and being captured by the Commandery Prince afterwards, the matters of my dicinal clinic have been significantly delayed.”
After hearing about i Jinxiu’s experiences, Su Xi-er suddenly reached out with her right hand. “Miss i, I suddenly lost my strength yesterday, but I didn’t consu anything else other than the sweet red date soup. Please help take my pulse.”
