At the steps in front of the Leaf Mansion, ng Zhaojun observed the emblem of the Pri Minister's Mansion on the carriages, along with several Pri Minister's Mansion coachn and guards. There were multiple carriages, and so people had already entered!
She speculated that the Pri Minister's Mansion had sent people to the Leaf Mansion to cause trouble, likely mobilizing dozens for this intervention!
ng Zhaojun, eager to see the commotion, wanted to go in and take a look!
She had already heard that Ye Shiqi had returned from the border, mysteriously traveling and returning. She eagerly wanted to et Ye Shiqi, to personally assess whether Ye Shiqi really possessed unusual capabilities.
Or perhaps her Spiritual Spring Space held more secrets?
ng Zhaojun decided to personally inquire, so she instructed a maid to accompany her inside for a visit!
As for whether it would appear to others that she was deliberately looking for excitent by visiting?
It was obvious, without guessing, who wouldn't want to watch a spectacle?
She had two sets of expensive costics in the carriage, so she left guards and a maid by the carriage to protect the costics!
ng Zhaojun, taking only one maid, tried to squeeze to the front of the Leaf Mansion amidst the crowd eager for excitent.
With many carriages around, so secretly lifted the curtains to watch the outside activities!
The Pri Minister's wife had indeed gone to the Leaf Mansion to stir trouble, and those Pri Minister's daughters who went to buy costics also secretly ca here, rely watching the excitent without involving in demanding justice.
They, of course, wanted to preserve their reputation. As newly wed young ladies, to avoid tarnishing their nas in the future, they only secretly observed the scene without actively participating!
At the last banquet, young won from the Ye family entered their ho and rumors spread that the Princess whipped them; it was said soone from the Pri Minister's Mansion got injured, connected to the Princess. This incident not only tarnished the Princess's reputation, but also that of those in the Pri Minister's Mansion!
Especially for those unmarried girls, acquiring a bad reputation is undesirable, even though they once deliberately participated in causing trouble for the young woman from the Ye family!
ng Zhaojun, with one maid, got off the carriage and walked step by step towards the front of the Leaf Mansion. The sons and daughters of the Pri Minister's Mansion saw her, along with others!
Acquainted or not, they speculated whether ng Zhaojun intended to involve herself in this matter?
Could this young lady be visiting the Leaf Mansion at such a critical mont?
ng Zhaojun, feeling countless eyes on her, couldn't honestly claim she wasn't nervous. Having grown up confident and proud in others' eyes as a well-bred lady.
With confidence cultivated from a young age and mories of a past life, she moved confidently under the scrutiny akin to being a celebrity observed by fans!
With the bold spirit of a woman from ancient tis, under so many eyes, she walked proudly towards the guarded entrance of the Ye family, using the maid beside her to announce her identity!
Holding her head high with an arrogant expression, looking down boldly, she addressed the guards at the entrance of the Ye family:
"Our Lady ng requests a visit to your Lady. My lady and your lady are old acquaintances; please ask your lady to co out to greet her!"
Today, the Leaf Mansion's gates were not tightly shut, with guards watching at the entrance because of intruders. These guards had witnessed battlefield scenes; so were even retired soldiers!
Facing the two won, one possibly a lady, and a maid with arrogance and disdain, the guards felt uncomfortable with their presence. They were straightforward, yet possessed self-respect, especially protective of the residents within the Leaf Mansion.
The maid, with her impolite speech and expression, and the lady showing unfriendliness with her expression, didn't seem like they were here for a friendly visit; likely, they were here to stir trouble!
Though both were a lady and a maid, only their lady was gentle and treated them kindly, making her worthy of their support. These unkind guests at the mont were presumably here to cause trouble, so why would they allow them inside?
One of the guards, around twenty, expressionless, remarked, "We don't know which Miss ng you are referring to. Our ladies are currently busy and have no ti for guests, nor will they welco you."
Guards thought to themselves, who are you to make demands here? Expecting our lady to welco you? You must have eaten too much cabbage to dream such dreams at night!
"Wow, how arrogant the watchdogs are. Our lady once traveled with your lady, even visited your lady's ho in the countryside and toured your estate, yet you claim your lady doesn't recognize our lady?"
The ng family maid, vexed by the Ye family guards, also a maid of a well-off official family, attended events with her lady. Naturally, she thought highly of herself!
The unobservant guards failed to notice their rudeness. Being refused entry, impolite expressions unguardedly exposed previous visits to their humble countryside and hospitality experiences!
ng Zhaojun thought... Fool! As she insulted them as country bumpkins, she inadvertently revealed her visits to their humble abode. Was her maid devoid of sense?
A quick glance at her foolish maid, how disheartening to have such a brainless employee by her side!
It seed none of her maids over the years were particularly bright!
The ignored maid, did not receive a glance from her lady, now glared venomously at the guards!
Guards thought… Does this woman seek to flaunt her superiority? They were guards yet free n, unowned by anyone. This maid, despite serving an official, was still a servant; what superiority did she claim?
This was the Ye Mansion, once the General's residence, ho to the General's offspring, so who could boast louder?
The guards looked scornfully at the lady and maid pair, being won did not soften their stoic refusal to let them enter!
ng Zhaojun, under so many public eyes, felt slighted by the Ye Mansion's rudeness, speaking such harsh words, widened her apricot eyes and suppressed her temper, then altered her expression!
Feigning grievance turned into a lotus-like deanor, she plaintively remarked: "We ca to visit Lady Ye, as old friends. Why aren't they welcoming us? Do they no longer value our friendship?"
Guards thought… This lady appears ek yet seems to be setting a trap for us!
