Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge
Chapter 399 The Princess's Maid (3)
"It's too late, we have to go!"
Shen Yixiao said something in a low voice, then immediately turned around, grabbed Yun Jing's wrist, walked to the window, and helped her out. He then jumped out of the window himself.
"Jing'er, let's go first. Once Yue Zeyuan finds out you're missing, that maid will definitely not survive either."
Yun Jing thought to herself, Shen Yixiao is right. Once Yue Zeyuan discovers that she is missing, he will definitely be furious, and Ning'er will certainly not survive.
She hummed in agreement and then disappeared into the night with Shen Yixiao.
Inside the palace.
After Yun Jing and Shen Yixiao left, the palace guards came in and reached the inner palace, where they were separated by only a few layers of curtains.
"Your Highness, has this servant entered?"
"No need to come in."
Qi Ning sat up from the ground and spoke to the outside.
The palace servants from Yue were meeting the princesses from Chu for the first time today. They were unfamiliar with them and didn't even recognize their voices. One of the servants genuinely thought it was Yun Jing speaking.
The palace maid stopped outside and asked again, "Your Highness, are you really alright? It seemed like something broke just now, and I think I heard someone talking."
"It's nothing, I just accidentally broke a teacup. We can clean it up tomorrow. You can go out now."
Upon hearing this, the palace servants outside hesitated.
This princess of Chu was aloof and, since entering the palace, she only allowed her personal maid to serve her and forbade anyone else to approach her.
However, His Majesty has also given instructions that as long as the Chu princess is kept in check and not allowed to wander around, nothing else needs to be done.
The palace maid responded with a "yes" and then turned and left.
Qi Ning then stood up, patted her clothes, and looked around the palace.
"Host, that was too dangerous. Shen Yixiao almost killed you."
Qi Ning had been on guard. After sensing Yun Jing and Shen Yixiao's murderous intent towards her, she remained lying still, but her foot, hidden under her skirt, moved slightly and kicked the table leg next to her feet.
When Qi Ning first transmigrated, she opened her eyes and glanced around. She happened to see the teacup sitting on the edge of the table. It wasn't stable to begin with, and it fell over with the slightest touch.
Qi Ning chuckled: "What's there to be afraid of? Do you think I can't beat Shen Yixiao? If all else fails, I can just kill them both on the spot."
"However, if I had killed those two just now, it might have attracted outsiders, making it harder to fool Yue Zeyuan and hindering my subsequent strategy."
“Yes,” the system replied. “On the night of the princess’s wedding in Yue Kingdom, a man and a woman died in the palace. It’s indeed hard to explain.”
"Host, what are your plans next?"
"What else can we do but stay and be a princess?"
Qi Ning walked to the bedside, picked up the wedding dress that Yun Jing had just taken off, and changed into it.
Since in the original story, Yun Jing and Shen Yixiao killed the original owner and then had her corpse take her place as the princess, and now that Yun Jing has run away, Qi Ning will not be polite and will let her be the princess.
After changing into her wedding dress, Qi Ning sat down at the dressing table, intending to change her makeup and hair to make herself look more like a princess.
The system said with some concern, "Although you managed to deal with the palace servants outside just now, you'll still be recognized tomorrow if you directly impersonate Yun Jing."
Princess Yun Jing always wore a veil when she entered the palace, so no one could see her face clearly. However, the face of Qi Ning, the maid, was seen by some people.
Qi Ning said, "As long as they didn't see the face under the red veil, that's fine."
In fact, when Yun Jing and the original owner entered the palace today, it was already quite late, and the sky was dim, so very few people could see the original owner's face clearly.
Otherwise, in the original storyline, Yun Jing wouldn't have been exposed if she had used the original owner's corpse to impersonate a princess.
Qi Ning looked at the original owner's face in the bronze mirror. Her skin was fair, her eyes were bright, and her temperament was serene.
If she were just a little more arrogant, no one would doubt that she was a princess.
Qi Ning was very satisfied. After tidying herself up, she sat down on the bed and waited for Yue Zeyuan to come over.
But even after she sat down and waited for a long time, Yue Zeyuan did not appear.
That makes sense, since this marriage alliance was proposed by the State of Chu, not requested by the State of Yue. It's normal for Yue Zeyuan to want to give them a hard time.
Qi Ning got bored while waiting, so he could only complain to the system about the plot of this world.
The system said, "Host, don't you think Shen Yixiao is quite pitiful?"
"What's so pitiful about him?"
"What a tragic death."
Qi Ning scoffed: "Shen Yixiao should be called a simp, he simped until he got nothing in the end."
Shen Yixiao traveled thousands of miles from Chu to Yue for Yun Jing, risking his life to rescue her from the Yue palace, and even took her to other small countries, but he still couldn't win Yun Jing's heart.
Even though Chu Hanfeng didn't like Yun Jing, he still made her marry into a foreign land in place of his younger sister. Yun Jing verbally resented him, but in her heart she still loved Chu Hanfeng.
Shen Yixiao and Yun Jing stayed in the small country for more than a year. He took care of her like a slave, and Yun Jing finally reluctantly agreed to marry him.
But before they could get married, Chu Hanfeng reappeared.
Yun Jing couldn't resist Chu Hanfeng, which gave her away and he discovered her true colors. However, Shen Yixiao was killed by Chu Hanfeng because of her.
In the end, Shen Yixiao gave his life for Yun Jing, and Yun Jing eventually forgave Chu Hanfeng and got together with him.
"Tell me, in the end, wasn't Shen Yixiao just reduced to a part of the male and female lead's storyline?"
After Qi Ning analyzed it, he wholeheartedly agreed: "That makes sense, it's kind of like he brought it on himself."
Qi Ning and the system whispered to each other for a long time, but Yue Zeyuan still didn't appear.
If it weren't for the original plot stating that Yue Zeyuan discovered the body that night, Qi Ning would have thought he wouldn't be coming over tonight.
He didn't appear even after waiting for a long time. Qi Ning was so tired that she leaned against the bed and became drowsy.
After an unknown amount of time, Qi Ning's ears twitched.
She heard footsteps approaching.
Qi Ning immediately opened her eyes and sat up in bed.
At this moment, the system also said, "Host, it's Yue Zeyuan who's here."
"Ah."
Qi Ning responded and bent down to straighten her wedding dress, which had been wrinkled from being pressed down.
When she looked up, she saw a figure lift the curtain and walk in from outside.
He was a tall, upright man dressed in a dark brocade robe, devoid of any festive color.
That face was quite handsome, with a high nose bridge and deep eyes, but his gaze was cold and unfriendly, suggesting he wasn't a kind person.
This person doesn't look like they're here for a wedding night; they look like they're here to kill someone.
He stood not far away, staring at Qi Ning with a blank expression.
Even though Qi Ning was sitting upright, he could still see that she looked tired. There was also a faint mark on her left cheek, which showed that she had just fallen asleep.
After a brief standoff, Qi Ning stood up.
She neither bowed nor spoke, but simply tilted her chin slightly to look back at Yue Zeyuan.
