Chapter 246 Why One Chased and the Other Escaped?

“Miss Qi, please stand up. We can discuss it later after your parents come to the capital!” After thinking for a while, Madam of Duke Xing said slowly with a sullen face.

The old maid behind her hurried forward to help Qi Rongzhi stand up.

Being rejected to her face with a barely acceptable reason, Qi Rongzhi still blushed with shame. She burst into tears, turned around, covered her face and ran out in tears.

“Grandma, I’ll take care of Miss Qi!” Qin Wanru said hurriedly and chased after her.

Nanny Zheng, who stood at the door and waited for Qin Wanru, originally wanted to follow Qin Wanru. Qin Wanru shook her hand to her, and reached out to point inward. Nanny Zheng understood. She called a maid to follow Qin Wanru, while she was still standing outside the curtain of the door.

It was advantageous for her to stand here. The people inside couldn’t see her, but she could hear the sounds inside.

“Thank you for your great kindness. We can talk about it later. So we can’t accept the gifts now!” In the room, Madam Dowager said with a smile, but not as kindly as she had been.

“In this case, I won’t insist on it. Madam Dowager can discuss it with Ningyuan Army General. If Second Miss Qin hadn’t helped Hao’er, I wouldn’t come over at this time!” Madam of Duke Xing said with a smile. At this time, her expression had returned to normal. She sat in the chair in dignity, and the two maids stepped back to stand behind her.

“Thank you for your kindly tolerance!” Madam Dowager said sincerely.

Madam Dowager considered anyone, that came over at this time, sympathetic and righteous. Maybe she could talk about it with Zhuozhuo later. It would only benefit Zhuozhuo indeed to join Duke Xing’s Mansion.

“Miss Qi was quite bold, but our Duke Xing’s Mansion can’t accept anyone casually. But after all, it’s not so good to reject her. Nanny Sheng, go to check on her and give her this bracelet of mine. We are probably predestined to meet!” Madam of Duke Xing took a bracelet from her wrist and said.

She originally intended to find a chance to send someone out to inquire about the information. Since she bumped into Qi Rongzhi, Qi Rongzhi could make it simpler for her to do that.

Her words were extremely decent.

“Yes, Madam!” The old maid behind her hurriedly stepped forward to take the bracelet respectfully and then left.

It was a matter between Qi Rongzhi and Madam of Duke Xing, so it was inconvenient for Madam Dowager to intervene in it. She originally intended to ask someone to lead the way for the old maid, but the old maid had lifted the curtain and left.

They continued talking in the room. Nanny Sheng of Duke Xing’s Mansion came out of the yard, asked an inferior old maid in the yard about the yard where Qi Rongzhi lived and then went outside without asking anyone to lead the way.

However, when she went out of the yard, after identifying directions, she hurriedly walked over in another direction instead of the direction indicated by the inferior old maid.

Not far behind her, Nanny Zheng fixedly stared at her and followed her all the way.

After turning a few corners, the old maid went to Yulan Pavilion expertly. She actually went to Madam Di’s yard and was very familiar with the route. If she had not been there several times, someone must have given her a detailed map.

At the entrance of Yulan Pavilion, the door was tightly closed with two interior old maids guarding there. After looking over there in distance, the old maid stood firm and frowned. It seemed to be impossible for her to enter Yulan Pavilion directly.

While hesitating, she suddenly saw the door was slightly pushed open and there was a slight crack. Mei Xue walked out with a small food basket. She expressed her great gratitude to the two old maids at the entrance, while taking two purses out of her cuffs and handing over them to the two old maids.

The two old maids took the purses with a smile and waved their hands to let Mei Xue go!

After coming out, Mei Xue did not leave immediately. She walked around and saw Nanny Sheng of Duke Xing’s Mansion beckoning for her at the next intersection. With her eyes lighting up, she looked around, and cautiously ran over in a hurry after confirming the two old maids guarding the Yulan Pavilion didn’t notice her.

Nanny Sheng pulled Mei Xue to hide behind a big tree and lowered her voice to ask, “What did your master say?”

“My master said it all depends to your Madam. Look, these are the residences of those people.” Mei Xue quickly took a letter out of the food basket and handed it to Nanny Sheng.

Nanny Sheng hurriedly took it and put it in her arms. After that, they turned away in other directions.

Nanny Sheng went to the guest yard, where Qi Rongzhi lived, this time. The reason why she was so clear about the location was that everyone’s residence was meticulously depicted on the map that she received before.

However, even if Nanny Sheng had remembered it clearly, she still reached out to take out a hand-drawn map from her bosom on her way and intended to read it again. She clearly remembered the route from Madam Dowager’s yard to Madam Di’s yard, but was not so sure of the route from Madam Di’s yard to the guest yard where Qi Rongzhi lived.

What had happened between Qi Rongzhi and Madam of Duke Xing was originally an accident, but it happened to be used by Madam of Duke Xing.

Nanny Sheng stood firm to have a look, and then held the hand-drawn map after identifying the direction. After walking for a while, she took it out again to have a look at it. Since she went out with the excuse of checking on Qi Rongzhi, she had to go to the guest yard to have a perfunctory look.

Having performing her task properly, Nanny Sheng was very relaxed at this moment and not as alert as she was before. When she took out the map again, someone suddenly came from the opposite direction and happened to bump into Nanny Sheng heavily. Nanny Sheng took two steps back and fell heavily to the ground.

The map in her hand had already fallen.

“You haven’t got eyes!” Nanny Sheng was knocked down so heavily that she couldn’t get up in a while and shouted in anger. As the henchman of Madam of Duke Xing, she had always been arrogant in Duke Xing’s Mansion.

“Have you got eyes?” Nanny Zheng picked up the map from the ground, read it and said coldly without helping Nanny Sheng up.

“What do you mean? As a servant, you are so arrogant. Who makes you dare to do that!” Nanny Sheng was so angry that her face darkened. She got up with a tree beside her and rebuked Nanny Zheng in a sharp voice.

Although the person on the opposite side seemed to have a brilliant appearance and great majesty, she was dressed like a servant. Nanny Sheng was not afraid of a servant of Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion.

“Aren’t you a servant?” Nanny Zheng said coldly and waved the map in her hand, “Say it, where did you get this map? Why do you have a hand-drawn map of our mansion? And it’s so detailed. What do you intend to do?”

“Give me the map!” Nanny Sheng panicked. She looked around and lowered her voice to say.

“Do you want to hurt the masters of our mansion?” Nanny Zheng stepped back, with her face turning increasingly cold.

“You are such a mean servant. What nonsense are you talking about? Give it back to me, or I’ll make you sorry for it!” Nanny Sheng threatened her. With no one else around at this moment, Nanny Sheng was relieved. Nanny Sheng bet she, who was just a servant of Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion, didn’t dare to offend her!

“You have a plot against the masters of our mansion and dare to threaten me. Well, well, let’s go to report it to Madam Dowager and see what she will say!”

Nanny Zheng sneered, stepping back and raising the map in her hand, “She will ask you where you got this map and what you were looking for with this map!”

“Give the map back to me!” Seeing that Nanny Zheng was going to report her behavior, Nanny Sheng was angry and anxious. She reached out to put her hand on her waist and threatened Nany Zheng loudly, “I am the servant of Madam of Duke Xing and came here with my master today. Even if I intend to do something, what can your Madam Dowager do to me? As long as I say this map is yours, Madam Dowager wouldn’t embarrass my master!”

Nanny Sheng also understood she had better avoid making a scene.

“Madam of Duke Xing came to our mansion to visit our Madam Dowager, but secretly sent you to find someone with a map. You should come from Madam Di’s yard, right? You actually secretly went to meet Madam Di. Could it be possible that Madam of Duke Xing actually came to our mansion to contact Madam Di rather than to express her gratitude to our Second Miss?”

With her face changing, Nanny Zheng said loudly.

Her speculation was very close to the truth. She had almost figured out the interaction between Madam of Duke Xing and Madam Di. With her face changing, Nanny Sheng rapidly rushed at Nanny Zheng in an attempt to grab the map in her hand.

Nanny Zheng had already prepared. She stepped back and ran away. Nanny Sheng chased after her, while shouting, “If you dare to talk nonsense, my master will definitely ask your Madam Dowager to punish you. Let’s see your Madam Dowager will believe you or my master!”

Madam of Duke Xing had an identity far beyond that of Madam Dowager of the Qin’s Mansion. Considering this point, Nanny Sheng felt flustered, but had not lost her composure.

As Madam Dowager of just a Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion, she wouldn’t dare to embarrass Madam of Duke Xing!

“Your Madam of Duke Xing has a plot against our General’s Mansion!” Nanny Zheng was much younger than Nanny Sheng, so she naturally ran very fast. Besides, she was familiar with the route. Therefore, Nanny Zheng took a shortcut to Qin Huaiyong’s study after turning a few corners.

“You… stop… How, how dare you steal my master’s stuff. Stop now!” Nanny Sheng suddenly shouted loudly, and even seemingly hoped that it could be heard by others, which was completely different from her sneaky behavior.

Unfortunately, Nanny Zheng ignored her and turned to go into a yard in front.

In the yard, a servant was guarding at the door. On hearing the sounds from outside, he hurriedly ran out to have a look and met Nanny Zheng who had run to the door.

“Is general here?” Nanny Zheng said in a low voice.

“Yeah… He is inside!” The servant nodded in a hurry. He knew Nanny Zheng. “Is Second Miss looking for general?”

“There is an old maid from Duke Xing’s Mansion searching for something with this map in our mansion. Give this map to general!” Nanny Zheng handed the map to the servant, but didn’t go into the yard. Instead, she ran forward around the yard.

Later, Nanny Sheng finally caught up with her, out of breath. Seeing Nanny Zheng resting against the wall in front of her, she immediately quickened her pace to rush over.

“Are you seeking death? Return the map to me. As long as I say that you stole my master’s stuff, you can only be beaten to death!” After coming up to Nanny Zheng, Nanny Sheng was exhausted. She gave Nanny Zheng a hard look and threatened her with her hand on the wall.
