Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge
Chapter 418 The Princess's Maid (22)
"Yutao, what are you doing here?"
As soon as Yun Jing approached, Yu Lan noticed her.
"I……"
Yun Jing was stunned for a moment, not expecting that the people who came would be Qi Ning and his group.
Qi Ning also poked her head out and looked at Yun Jing: "Yu Tao, didn't I tell you to stay in Yaohua Palace? What are you doing in Taihe Hall?"
Qi Ning did tell her to stay quietly in Yaohua Palace to avoid being seen by the Chu envoy and having her true identity exposed.
Yun Jing had specifically come out to find the Chu envoy, but she didn't expect to run into Qi Ning and his group instead.
She thought for a moment, then stammered, "This servant...this servant has come to escort Your Highness back to the palace."
Yulan found her words incomprehensible: "Her Majesty told you to stay in the palace. Who gave you the right to come and fetch Her Majesty on your own initiative?"
When Yun Jing saw Qi Ning's eyes, she knew that Qi Ning had seen through her, and she didn't know how to explain herself for a moment.
"Alright, let's go back to the palace first."
Qi Ning did not expose her here for the time being.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Only then did Yulan give up.
She waved her hand, signaling the eunuchs carrying the palanquin to continue.
But when she turned around, she saw Yun Jing still standing there.
"Yutao, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you catching up?"
Yun Jing glanced back at the direction of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, then gritted her teeth inwardly.
Knowing she wouldn't see the Chu envoy tonight, she hurried after him.
The group returned to Yaohua Palace.
They helped Qi Ning wash up and change her clothes.
As Qi Ning sat in front of the dressing table, Yu Lan combed her hair, Yun Jing came over and snatched the comb from Yu Lan's hand.
"Sister Yulan, you must be tired from attending the palace banquet with Her Majesty tonight. Let me serve Her Majesty."
"Oh, Yutao, you've always been so cunning and lazy, when did you become so diligent?" Yulan asked in surprise.
Yun Jing cursed Yu Lan hundreds of times in her heart. If she hadn't had something to do and wanted to get rid of her, she wouldn't have rushed to do such a servant's job.
"When have I ever been lazy or cunning? Besides, it's my turn to keep watch tonight," Yun Jing said with a forced smile.
That's true. Come to think of it, it should indeed be Yu Tao's turn to keep watch tonight.
At this moment, Qi Ning raised her head and glanced at them: "Yulan, you can take your people out. Just let Yutao serve me."
Yulan thought to herself, "An envoy has sent a beautiful woman to His Majesty tonight, so there's no way His Majesty will come."
She sighed inwardly, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Yulan curtsied to Qi Ning and then left with the other palace servants.
Before long, only Qi Ning and Yun Jing remained in the bedchamber.
"Speak, what did you want to say to me after you sent those people away?" Qi Ning asked bluntly.
Sure enough, with no one else around, Yun Jing stopped pretending and simply threw the wooden comb she was holding onto the dressing table.
"Did you see the Chu envoys tonight? Did they recognize your identity?"
Qi Ning stroked her long hair and said casually, "Use your brain, will you? If my identity is discovered, do you think I can come back unscathed?"
That means they weren't caught. How could that be?
Yun Jing asked anxiously, "How could that be? How could the envoy from Chu not be able to distinguish the real princess who is to be married off?"
"That's because the Chu envoy didn't see me at all tonight."
"What do you mean?"
Qi Ning stood up and looked at Yun Jing, saying, "You don't know yet, do you? Tonight, the Chu envoys put on airs and didn't show up even after the palace banquet started, which displeased Yue Zeyuan. He directly ordered people to stop them at the palace gate, so they couldn't even get in to attend the banquet."
"What……"
Yun Jing's face turned pale.
Qi Ning stretched out a finger and poked Yun Jing's forehead: "Don't think I don't know what you were thinking when you went to the Taihe Hall tonight. You wanted them to inform Chu Hanfeng and ask him to rescue you, right?"
"I think you're dreaming! Chu Hanfeng has always disliked you, otherwise why would he let you replace his sister for a political marriage?"
"In his eyes, you are just a pawn to appease the Yue Kingdom. If he saves you, do you think Yue Zeyuan will let it go? Or do you think Chu Hanfeng would offend Yue Zeyuan for your sake?"
"If Chu Hanfeng really valued you that much, he wouldn't have sent you here for a political marriage in the first place. If you see the Chu envoy tonight, you'll only be courting death. You'd better behave yourself, or I won't let you off the hook!"
After saying that, Qi Ning chuckled and ignored Yun Jing, turning to go to the inner hall.
Yun Jing was left standing there, trembling slightly, her mind replaying Qi Ning's words.
No, no, Chu Hanfeng wouldn't do that to her.
Yun Jing finally had a chance to contact Chu Hanfeng, but it was all ruined just like that.
After hearing what Qi Ning had just said, she found it even more unacceptable.
After Qi Ning fell asleep, Yun Jing tossed and turned on the small couch where the palace maids kept watch in the outer room, unable to fall asleep no matter what.
She was truly unwilling to accept this fate. If she didn't find a way to get out, was she really going to spend her whole life as a palace maid in the Yue Kingdom's palace, serving her former servants?
"No, absolutely not!" Yun Jing said in a low voice.
Suddenly, she got up from the small couch, holding a hairpin in her hand, and walked towards the bed.
Yun Jing's eyes were filled with murderous intent. Rather than this, she would rather kill Ning'er!
But after taking only two steps, Yun Jing stopped again.
She knew very well that if she killed Ning'er, she wouldn't survive either.
Yun Jing looked towards Qi Ning's bed, struggling internally, her hand tightly gripping the hairpin.
After a long while, she finally gave up and wanted to turn around and go back to her small couch.
But as soon as she turned around, she found that there was someone standing behind her.
It is Yue Zeyuan.
She didn't know how long he had been standing behind her, silently.
Yue Zeyuan was staring at her with a chilling gaze, his eyes filled with coldness.
Yun Jing was startled. She lost her balance and swayed, about to bump into Yue Zeyuan.
Just as she was about to fall onto Yue Zeyuan, Yue Zeyuan raised his hand and pushed her to the ground.
"what!"
Yun Jing screamed and fell to the ground, looking up at Yue Zeyuan in horror.
Since entering the Yue Kingdom's palace, Yun Jing had never been this close to Yue Zeyuan. Now that she was so close to him, she felt a deep sense of fear.
She felt that Yue Zeyuan's gaze made it seem as if he would kill her without hesitation at any moment.
Yun Jing curled her legs up on the ground and backed away.
Yue Zeyuan glanced down at Yun Jing lying on the ground and uttered only three words in a cold voice:
"Get out."
After saying that, he stepped into the inner hall and walked towards Qi Ning's bed.
Yun Jing collapsed to the ground, still shaken. It was Eunuch Xu who stepped forward, dragged her out, and closed the door behind him.
