She Holds the World After Being Reborn-Chapter 485 - 484: You persecute the loyal and the good, everyone has the right to punish you

Chapter 485: Chapter 484: You persecute the loyal and the good, everyone has the right to punish you

"If the Crown Princess Consort is not interested, I will immediately explain to the ladies." Qin Erya quickly spoke up, fearing that her hospitality was lacking.

There really was not a single flaw to pick on.

A dark light twinkled in Yan Wanqing’s peach blossom eyes.

The question was whether this poised direct daughter of the Qin Family was doing this on purpose or genuinely without intent.

"There’s no need, I also happened to come out for a leisurely stroll today, and since you have already accepted on my behalf, I cannot let you lose face," Yan Wanqing said nonchalantly.

What the truth of the matter was, it simply was.

It’s not something Qin Erya could cover up with just a clever trick.

She gestured to Cong Ge, "Go outside and tell them, I will be there shortly."

Cong Ge bowed and went out.

"Does Miss Qin wish to accompany us?" Yan Wanqing asked, looking at Qin Erya.

Qin Erya looked troubled, "Normally, I should accompany the Crown Princess Consort on the lake visit, but I really cannot leave the household duties, I must ask for your forgiveness."

"That’s understandable, but since I’m addressing these ladies on your behalf, Miss Qin, you shouldn’t let me work in vain," Yan Wanqing suddenly said with a laugh, catching Qin Erya off guard.

"What does the Crown Princess Consort imply?"

"I’ve heard that the Grand Tutor of Qin is unmatched in brush and ink, and I wonder if Miss Qin could help me obtain four characters," she said with a meaningful smile.

Qin Erya tightened her grip on the brocade handkerchief under that smile.

"May I know which four characters the Crown Princess Consort desires?"

Yan Wanqing slowly stood up; her belly slightly protruded, and her stature became more voluptuous as days passed. With every smile and frown, she exuded allure. She then said, "I will have someone send those four characters to Miss Qin later."

Without waiting for Qin Erya to speak, she languidly said, "Let’s go, let’s go out to the lake and get some fresh air."

The ladies outside were already waiting. Because it was a spontaneous decision, they rounded up eight carriages for those who wanted to join the lake visit, seven or eight more joined by Yan Wanqing and some others.

The lake was not far, and it took only half an hour to reach by carriage.

The autumn weather was invigorating, and the air was fragrant with sweet osmanthus, perfect for an outing.

Above the lake.

Yan Wanqing leaned at the window, enjoying the cool breeze off the water, listening to the self-organized music played by the young ladies, her mood lifted beautifully.

Compared to staying in the noisy Qin Residence, venturing out was indeed more fitting for her.

But why had Qin Erya arranged for her to come out here? What was her true motive?

Was the Qin Family finally ready to take action against her?

"Sister, are you hungry?" Yan Xiaoliu came in with his hair tousled by the wind and leaned into Yan Wanqing’s embrace, "My mouth feels tasteless, I’d really like something salty."

"Let’s have the boat dock and go eat at the restaurant," Yan Wanqing instructed Cong Ge.

"Oye!" Yan Lingzhen was thrilled.

It was a rare opportunity to dine out at a restaurant with his sister.

It was a rare treat, and Yan Hongzhao also felt some excitement.

Li Chengxiang went to inform the ladies outside to see if any of them wanted to join the meal.

One lady voiced her concerns, "The Crown Princess Consort has a high status and is currently pregnant; deciding to dine at a restaurant spontaneously might be too risky. Not that I’m a harbinger of bad luck, but if any danger arises, it would be too late for regrets."

"Yes, why don’t we ask the boatmen to dock and have the restaurant deliver the food here? We can eat while continuing the tour, how about it?"

They were also concerned for Yan Wanqing’s safety.

If something happened to the Crown Princess Consort while they were out with her, the Crown Prince would hold them accountable.

Upon hearing Li Chengxiang’s report, Yan Wanqing unexpectedly reacted.

"If that’s the case, they can stay on the boat, I will go to the restaurant by myself."

So, Yan Wanqing actually led her sisters to dock the boat and went up to the restaurant.

This left everyone quite upset, but they dared not speak out.

Atop the restaurant,

one could gaze far into the lake surface.

Yan Lingzhen watched the waiters continuously serving dishes, and she licked her lips uneasily, "Why does big sister want to contradict those people?" The lady’s suggestion was indeed good.

Yan Wanqing chuckled lightly, "Just use your clever little brain to think about it."

Yan Lingzhen grew nervous, "What does big sister want to do?"

"It’s not about what your big sister wants to do, but what those hidden in the shadows want to do," Yan Wanqing replied.

Then Yan Lingzhen noticed that her fifth sister, Yan Hongzhao, had brought her whip with her when she disembarked.

She diligently kept an eye on their surroundings, "Those in the dark can’t hide any longer."

Yan Wanqing rested her chin on her hand, tilting her head as she watched the boats on the lake, where occasionally a few birds crossed over the midday sun, creating a beautiful scene.

If it weren’t for the sounds of swords and blades from outside, her mood would be even better.

"Big sister!" Yan Lingzhen immediately stood up beside Yan Wanqing, her little face alert as she watched outside, "Be careful, big sister."

"Sit down and eat," Yan Wanqing said indifferently, "They can’t come in."

She was certainly no great philanthropist.

With the leisure and elegance to play host for the Qin Residence.

When Qin Erya asked her to take the ladies out, she indeed gave those people a chance.

If it was inconvenient on the boat, then she would disembark.

Either way, today, some disturbance needed to arise, lest they truly think she, Yan Wanqing, was a soft bun that anyone could pinch as they pleased.

Yan Hongzhao had gone out with her red whip, and after a short while, the commotion outside ceased.

Inside, people were eating and drinking, chatting.

Yan Hongzhao pushed the door open and entered, "It’s all taken care of, big sister."

"Hmm," Yan Wanqing rose and pulled out a chair, "Hongzhao, sit down and eat something, I’ll go out and have a look."

She walked towards the door while Yan Hongzhao, not minding, directly started eating using her big sister’s utensils,

Now that they were in the Capital City, it was better to eat as much good food as possible, who knows if it would be available once they were beyond the frontier.

There were plenty of assassins, currently subdued by the guards, with quite a few corpses scattered all over the ground.

Bewildered guests, pale-faced and sweating profusely.

The manager crawled out from under a table, and just after regaining his composure, he saw a beautiful woman descending from the upstairs, who took a purse from her waist and threw it over, "Innkeeper, use this to renovate your inn."

The innkeeper caught the purse unprepared, only realizing its heaviness once in hand.

She was a wealthy patron.

"Thank you, madam, thank you," the innkeeper kept thanking her repeatedly, his panic all gone, now only dazzled by money, his eyes crinkling into folds as he smiled.

Yan Wanqing approached a man in black who seemed to be the leader,

Seeing that his jaw had been dislocated, she raised her hand and without blinking, snapped it back into place, the grinding sound made the onlookers grit their teeth in sympathy,

The assassin glared menacingly at Yan Wanqing, "Enchantress! Despicable and shameless!"

"You attempted to assassinate me, and now I’m the despicable and shameless one?" Yan Wanqing heard this and laughed lightly, "You really don’t know how to speak."

"You harm the loyal and the good, you deserve death by all!" the assassin cried hysterically,

"Tell me, whom have I harmed?"

"Does not the Chief of Staff Liu Pingzhi count?!" the assassin yelled loudly.

Yan Wanqing’s eyes flickered, "Get it straight, it was he who made the move, which has nothing to do with me; as for Liu Pingzhi, he caused my Deputy General Chang Kuan to still be lying in bed until now, and nearly ruined my fifth sister’s face in front of Chu Kingdom; how do you account for these?"

"All these troubles you mentioned are of your own making," the assassin said nonchalantly, the next second his jaw was dislocated again,

Seeing this, she lightly parted her red lips, "If you can’t speak, then shut your mouth."
