In Love With My Fierce Farming Wife!
Chapter 1384 - 20 Leaving (20)

Chapter 1384: Chapter 20 Leaving (20)

After resting for a few days at Prince Wei’s other residence, one morning Qin Shuan’er insisted on returning to the Qin Mansion.

She had originally planned to have the Su Family come to get her, but for some reason, the Su Family had no reaction at all. Even Su Ke, who had initially insisted on taking her away, had no further word.

After pondering for two days, she directly ordered her attendants to pack up her belongings for her.

The attendants by her side were all maidservants of Prince Wei, who naturally did not dare to take initiative on their own, and quickly reported the matter to their superiors.

Prince Wei soon rushed over.

But he saw Qin Shuan’er holding a candlestick as a cane, stepping with one foot on the ground and the other foot dangling in mid-air, ready to step out of the house.

Prince Wei was in a hurry, inevitably stepping forward to stop her.

"Little sister Shuan’er, you are still injured at the moment, how can you come out?"

He pretended to be completely ignorant, hurried forward, and gave a scolding to the attendants around: "How do you take care of Miss Qin? Can’t you see that Miss Qin is injured, why not quickly assist her back inside?"

Two maidservants, feeling aggrieved, did not dare to retort, and quickly stepped forward to help.

"No need!"

Qin Shuan’er stopped the two maidservants from coming forward: "Your Highness, Shuan’er has already troubled you for many days here. Plus, my third auntie is seriously injured at the moment, I was thinking that I should be attending to her, instead of hiding in Your Highness’ other residence to enjoy leisure. That was why I had the thought of going back. I thank Your Highness and the Princess Consort for your care during this period."

Saying so, she then paid respects to Prince Wei.

"Ah, what are you saying? Little sister Shuan’er, you haven’t fully recovered from your injury yet, and should not be moving around lest it worsens your condition. It’s best to quickly return to your room!"

Prince Wei did not entertain further discussion, waving his hand for the maidservants to come forward.

"Is Your Highness unwilling to let Shuan’er leave?"

Qin Shuan’er’s face darkened: "Prince Wei is overthinking it, Shuan’er has only sprained her ankle, and is not disabled. I have troubled you in the other residence for so long. I should return now. So as not to give those Speech Officials in the Court a grip on Your Highness, and present several memorials against Your Highness to His Majesty. By that time, all of Your Highness’s goodwill would be misconstrued by the world."

"This Prince walks uprightly and sits straight; I am not afraid of these rumors and slanders; little sister Shuan’er you just stay..."

"Your Highness may not be afraid. But Shuan’er is! Shuan’er is afraid that someone will say Shuan’er is greedy for pleasure, and does not even visit the third auntie when she is injured. If someone learns that Shuan’er is stuck and unable to leave from Your Highness’ other residence, I fear that even if Shuan’er is covered with mouths, she still would not be able to explain clearly."

Qin Shuan’er appeared determined to leave, paid a reluctant respect to Prince Wei, and, leaning on her makeshift cane, was prepared to leave.

Prince Wei’s expression flickered, continuously saying he dared not, and could only assign someone to release Qin Shuan’er to leave.

As he entered the House with an ugly expression, he inadvertently provoked the confusion of the Princess Consort Wei.

"Weren’t you saying you wanted to keep this little girl under control? How come you let her go now?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Little sister Shuan’er wants to go back to take care of the Empress Mother, could it be that I, as a subject, could stop her from performing her filial duties? Think before you speak in the future!"

Prince Wei was already annoyed, and it was as if the Princess Consort Wei had asked for a scolding, wasn’t it deserved?

Besides, his people had been repeatedly frustrated in their tasks recently; it was indeed time for a rectification.

It was only after the carriage stopped at the Qin Mansion that Qin Shuan’er finally breathed a sigh of relief; she finally got out of that cage!

Hearing that Qin Shuan’er had come back, Su Pan’er was still a bit surprised to see her injuries healing rapidly!

Originally, Su Ke had sent Little Shitou over and had discussed Shuan’er’s situation. Thinking that Shuan’er was injured and staying within Prince Wei’s sphere of influence, she would have to stay for a couple more days before returning. Unexpectedly, she ran back this early morning!

"Let her in!"

Su Pan’er, who clearly had more energy, was eating tangerines.

Although the weather was cold at the moment, the taste of the tangerines was still good; Little Yanyan was sitting aside, only handing over to her mother after peeling, looking particularly well-behaved.

After that person left, Little Yanyan arranged the peeled tangerine slices and handed them to Su Pan’er.

"Empress Mother, this one is particularly sweet. Please try it!"

Su Pan’er was still preoccupied with thoughts of Qin Shuan’er’s return, unexpectedly not noticing the sour taste in her mouth.

"Empress Mother, how did Sister Shuang’er get injured? Also, is it fun outside, should we go out for a walk as well? What do you think, Empress Mother, please tell me, tell me!"

By the time Qin Shuang’er was helped over by two maidservants, her eyes reddened as soon as she saw Su Pan’er.

"Empress..."

"Quickly stop standing, Shuang’er, come sit over here with your third auntie."

Su Pan’er waved her hand towards her.

While Qin Shuang’er was sitting down, Su Pan’er took the opportunity to check on her injury. Thankfully, it was just a sprain. There’s a saying that injuries to the sinews and bones take a hundred days to heal, but it seems this time she would have company during her recovery.

"It’s just a sprain. Resting well will naturally lead to recovery. These days, you should stay by my side!"

Su Pan’er comforted Qin Shuang’er while calculating the time in her head.

Right now, she herself was lying in bed, unable to take care of the child, so it would be better to keep her close to avoid people scheming against her!

"Thank you, third auntie!"

Tears in Qin Shuang’er’s eyes swirled around.

These past days, she had been constantly worried about third auntie’s injuries, and seeing the worn-out Su Pan’er now, she felt a heartache like no other.

And so, she agreed immediately.

Su Pan’er, having seen the Injury Medicine used by Prince Wei for Shuang’er’s wounds and finding it indeed quite good, breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon after, Su Ke, upon learning of Shuang’er’s departure, hurriedly followed her back to the Qin Mansion.

Zhang Zhongding, however, received the news last and nearly argued with Prince Wei over Qin Shuan’er’s sudden departure.

Prince Wei, though, didn’t care about these matters.

"Is Master Zhang questioning my decision?"

He scoffed coldly, "Master Zhang, considering the regard I hold for Commander Zhang, I’ve been lenient towards you. Don’t be ungrateful! Not to mention you, even if your father were standing before me right now, he wouldn’t dare speak to me with such a tone. What do you think you are?"

Prince Wei’s disdainful gaze and the chill in his eyes finally snapped Zhang Zhongding back to reality.

He had received the news of Qin Shuang’er’s departure last because he had left Prince Wei’s residence earlier to deal with some matters.

Upon hearing about Shuang’er’s departure, he immediately became angry and panicked.

Reminded by Prince Wei, he realized his mistake right away.

Witnessing the disparagement in the other’s eyes, Zhang Zhongding, although young, was capable of humility; his expression changed in an instant, and he promptly put on a smile.

"I learned that my fiancée had suddenly left, and I feared she might encounter trouble on her way, which is why I was anxious. If I have offended your Lordship, I hope Prince Wei will overlook my transgression and forgive me this time," he said, bowing deeply.

The reason Prince Wei was still sitting there had to do with Commander Zhang’s identity.

As the saying goes, one should respect the master for the disciple’s sake, and given that Commander Zhang was in charge of both the troops in Shengjing and the safety of the Imperial City, it was necessary for Prince Wei to seek his favor.

Thinking of this, Prince Wei grunted, "Enough! Be more careful in your future actions to avoid causing trouble for me and making me clean up after you!"

With that, without waiting for Zhang Zhongding to respond, he left directly.
