"Qingluo, why did you come here? When did you return to the capital? Zheng Qingluo never would have thought that she would see Wang Zirou here.

With her father's position, he should not be qualified to attend such a banquet. Even if she were to return to the capital to report for duty, he would only be promoted to a fourth rank official.

Although it was only that one time of contact, Zheng Qingluo could see that this Miss Wang was a person with a genuine personality. Otherwise, she wouldn't have stood up for him the moment she saw him.

"I just returned to the capital not too long ago, so I'm not familiar with this place yet. I don't know if your father became an envoy from the Minister's Department or not, but if I had known earlier, I would have gone over to congratulate him."

Before Zheng Qingluo could finish her sentence, a light snort came from the side, "It's just a government envoy. Is it even worth showing off?"

Wang Zirou's words were quite piercing to him, and she opened his mouth to return it, but Zheng Qingluo grabbed onto his sleeve. The 'what does this have to do with you', forcibly swallowed it back down.

She suddenly thought about it, to be able to roam around this garden, every single one of them would be part of the officials in the imperial court, so her father's position was considered to be the lowest, and was only at the third stage. Wang Zirou grinded his teeth and reminded himself, do not cause any trouble for his father.

"Heh, why aren't you speaking?" Wang Zirou inhaled and slowly raised his head to look at the newcomer. It turned out to be the first young lady of the great temple Liu family, Liu Ming'e.

"I wonder if Miss Liu has come. Please excuse me." Wang Zirou felt righteous and blessed. The trace of anger from before had already disappeared, and her entire body was filled with gentleness.

"We only chatted for a while after we met our old playmates. They both came back to the capital and disappeared for a period of time, so we didn't know much about each other's families. That's why we briefly explained the situation and made Miss Liu laugh."

Being treated in such a serious manner, Liu Ming'e was actually caught off guard. She originally wanted to use her family's position to pressure her, but she didn't expect the other party to explain it to her in such a serious manner.

She and her former friends were spoiled by the family. They would lose their temper whenever they were provoked. Why was this person so calm, and even thinking of taking the opportunity to pick a fight?

Miss Liu did not achieve her goal. She glared at Zheng Qingluo with her eyes and snorted coldly. Then, she turned and walked away. Since she did not achieve her goal, it was only natural that she was unwilling to do so.

Zheng Qingluo sighed, looks like the praises from Grand Princess Ning Yuan in the parlour just now had really attracted the attention of these young misses, even Wang Zirou who came with them had been implicated.

"Ahh!"

Just as Zheng Qingluo was about to apologize to Wang Zirou, she heard a cry of pain from the front. Lifting her head to look, she saw a young lady in a light pink dress lying on the ground in front of Liu Ming`er.

"He didn't even bring his eyes along when he walked. Why is he so reckless?" Liu Ming'e looked at the little girl lying on the ground. She was unknown which family's young lady she belonged to, but seeing her plain and simple dress, it was likely that she wasn't someone with a high position.

Just like that Third Miss Zheng, who was clearly only wearing light clothes, was actually caught by the Grand Princess when she thought of this. When she thought of this, Liu Ming`er became angry, and her anger flared up towards this young miss from an unknown family.

"You obviously didn't see the way." The little girl began to cry as she laid on the ground and raised her hand, "Pain — —"

Zheng Qingluo had already seen the red blood stain on the little palm of her hand. Before the servant girl ran over, Zheng Qingluo had already walked over and helped the little girl up from the ground.

When the little girl stood up, Zheng Qingluo discovered that the little girl was lying on the ground looking at her. When she stood up, she was not much shorter than herself, she took out the kernels s in her hands and pressed them onto the little girl's hands.

"Sorry, you're being rude. Endure it for a while, I'll find something for you to clean up. Otherwise, if there's anything dirty, it will leave scars." He raised his head and glanced at the pavilion not far from here, where tea and snacks had been prepared.

"Go, bring the teapot from the pavilion." Turning around, he signaled to the woman who had followed him, telling her to hurry up. She picked up her skirt, ran into the pavilion, and then carried the teapot back.

At this moment, the young girl's maidservants had already arrived in front of her. Along with Zheng Qingluo, the maidservants from the princess' mansion suddenly knelt on the ground. "Princess!"

The Grand Princess's only precious daughter, Princess Mingxia.

"Greetings, Princess!" The other ladies in the garden also reacted, immediately kneeling down to say their goodbyes. Even Zheng Qingluo was a bit stunned, completely taken aback.

"Big sister, didn't you say that you would help me charge forward? If you don't charge, you'll be scarred." At this moment, the little girl didn't have the time to pay attention to the young ladies of the Shangguan Family. She was worried about whether her hand would be scarred or not.

The princess calling you sister was giving you face. If you, a servant's daughter, dared to answer, it would be a slap in the face.

"Princess, you should have your wife invite the imperial physician. Don't delay the treatment." This was like a piece of gold with jade. If something went wrong, it wouldn't just be a joke.

Zheng Qingluo took the little girl's other hand and pressed it against the injured hand, telling her to press her own hand against the wound. Then she knelt down obediently and greeted the princess with a bow. Only then did she stably stand up.

She took half a step to the side and stood in front of the princess, avoiding her sight. She didn't want to cause any trouble, but it just had to happen. "The imperial physician will be here for a while. Elder sister, please take a look first. It hurts."

Perhaps it was Zheng Qingluo who was the first to help her stand up and the first to treat her wounds. The princess immediately felt close to Zheng Qingluo and raised her small hand in front of her.

"maidservant doesn't dare to act rashly. Princess, you should endure for a while and invite the imperial physician over. With maidservant's insignificant skill, you don't dare to make a fool of yourself.

"I've already gone to invite her." The maidservants by the side hurried back. Not to mention asking for the imperial physician, even the Grand Princess had already been sent away. Who would dare to hide anything that happened to the princess?

"Humph!" The princess gave a faint snort. This group of servants had no discerning ability, what was the use of keeping them. Although she had been in a hurry to escape, it was also because these servants had neglected her.

Even though Mo Ju held onto the teapot, she didn't dare to say anything. Since Miss Mo didn't say anything, she just stood there quietly. Most people were not as big as her master, like Third Miss said. Right now, it was best not to cause trouble.

"Elder sister, please help me take a look first. I won't blame you even if you look good." Zheng Qingluo really didn't want to push herself against this princess. One look was enough to tell that she was stubborn. She pretended she didn't see all of this as she kneeled on the floor.

After all, she was only a twelve or thirteen year old girl. If she delayed the treatment and got a scar, then she wouldn't be able to remember if she hated him. Even if it was just her heart, she would be sorry.

This scar was nothing like other people's scars. Once it was left behind, it would be for the next generation. What was a man supposed to do if he had a scar? If a girl had a scar, it would really be fatal.

"Just bear with the pain." Zheng Qingluo reached out to the kernels and pulled it away. Seeing that the wound was still bleeding, it seemed that it fell quite heavily.

"Moyu, pour the tea water over the wound. Pour less water and pour it lightly." With Third Miss' instructions, Mo Ju obediently poured the tea into the princess' hands.

"Sss — It hurts — —" The princess let out a pained groan as her small body could not help but tremble.

"You audacious servant, how dare you harm our princess." A woman next to the princess immediately got up from the ground and rushed forward. Zheng Qingluo pulled Mo Ju over to her side as she was about to slap her lips.

"Princess, it's better to let the people beside you come." Zheng Qingluo respectfully bowed deeply, then pulled Moyu to the side. "As long as you wash off the dirt and dirt on your wounds."

"You dog slave! Someone knocked me down! Didn't you see that? Someone treated my wounds and you rushed up! What's the use of raising trash like you? Drag him down for me!"

Princess Mingxia looked at the woman in front of him hatefully. After seeing that she was held down by the woman beside her, she looked at Zheng Qingluo pitifully. This time, she did not speak, but only watched quietly.
