Inside the teahouse, the Qingping governor was seated in the elegant room by the window with a cup of tea, drinking it while waiting for someone to come, watching everything outside the shop in the meantime.
An ordinary carriage stopped at the entrance of the teahouse, and a man came down from the carriage, dressed in a dark red brocade robe, standing with a long body and a noble air.
He stood by the side of the carriage and swept a glance towards the surroundings, frowning slightly before lifting his feet to walk inside.
Two guards followed behind him.
The teahouse was located in a downtown area, and most people who came in were tired of shopping or came to buy goods and talk business. It was extremely rare to see a man with such a noble air, so the man who greeted him couldn’t help but look twice, but when he met the man’s deep gaze, he was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head and dared not look any further, and after asking a few questions, he took him upstairs to the elegant room.
The three of them stopped at the door of the elegant room, one of the guards pushed the door open directly, the man lifted his foot to enter, and the fellow saw the man inside stand up through the still closed doorway.
“My lord.”
The governor of Qingping saluted.
The Second Prince answered indifferently and sat down.
The second prince took it and held it in his hand, looking through the window at the shops in the distance.
“Can you see anyone?”
The Qingping governor had come to the capital two days ago, but had never found a chance to get in touch with Song Wangyue, so when he heard that the shop was open today, he came over and thought he would find a chance to “meet” her.
“Miss Song hasn’t shown herself at the front, but my subordinates saw her come over and enter the shop through the back door.”
The Second Prince nodded his head.
He knew about the Grand Prince’s contact with the Xu family, and although he knew that the Xu family could not be used by the Grand Prince, he was still uneasy in his heart, and he desperately needed to get on the Song Wangyue line.
As time passed, they drank cup after cup of tea, and it was almost noon, the sound of stomping footsteps came upstairs and stopped at the door of the elegant room, followed by a few knocks on the door.
“Come in!”
The door was pushed open and the person came in, “My lord, Miss Song has come out!”
The governor of Qingping gave the second prince a bow, hurried down the stairs and hurriedly got into the carriage.
Out on the street and past a corner on the far side, the carriage turned around and headed back, going so fast that just as it rounded the corner, it collided with an oncoming carriage.
There was a loud bang and a lot of commotion, horses hissing on both sides and people coming and going in the street over there looking over.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry ……”
The coachman on Qingping governor’s side apologised one after another, “I was in too much of a hurry, you guys ……”
Before he could finish his words, a painful cry came from inside the carriage, the coachman’s face changed and he hurriedly lifted the curtain, inside the carriage, the Qingping governor was holding his forehead, there were traces of blood running down his fingers.
“My lord!”
The coachman exclaimed in shock, turning white.
The Song family carriage driver also saw it and hurriedly said to the carriage, “Madam, Miss Song, the other person seems to be injured.”
The responsibility did lie over there, but it was different when someone on the other side was injured.
“It’s nothing, don’t make a fuss.”
The Qingping governor had taken out a handkerchief and covered his forehead.
Over there, Song Wangyue heard that someone was injured, lifted the carriage curtain and spoke to Xiao Yao, got down from the carriage and walked closer, “I will ……”
Qingping governor heard the sound and raised his eyes to look over, surprised out, “Miss Song?”
Song Wan Yue also saw him clearly, swallowed back the words behind, did not move and asked with a smile, “My lord, you are ……”
The Qingping governor also smiled and lowered his voice, “I came to the capital to report on my duties and will be back tomorrow, so I thought I would come over to buy some gifts for my family, Miss Song this is ……”
The blood vaguely penetrated the handkerchief, Song Wan Yue could see it clearly, took out the gold sore medicine that had been kept on her body and not used up, handed it to the coachman, “First, stop the bleeding for the lord.”
The coachman’s face was white, his whole body was shaking, and his hands were even more shaky as he couldn’t even hold the porcelain bottle.
Song Wan Yue was helpless, she couldn’t go to the carriage to give medicine to Qingping’s governor, could she? After glancing around, she saw a teahouse in the distance, “Go to the teahouse, I’ll help him administer medicine.”
The coachman shook his body and helped Qingping governor down, Song Wangyue walked back to her own carriage and said, “Let them go wait in front and walk to a teahouse by herself.
When she went there, Qingping had already asked for an elegant room, and Song Wan Yue helped him to apply the medicine and tucked the porcelain bottle back into her sleeve.
The corners of Qingping’s mouth twitched slightly as he watched, thinking that the richer he was, the stingier he was, for it was only a bottle of golden sore medicine, and Song Wangyue didn’t bother to give it to him.
Song Wangyue told him to wait and went back to her shop to bring him a bottle of scar removing medicine, “After the scars have fallen off, your Excellency will have someone apply it once a day, morning and evening, so that no scars will remain.”
The Qingping governor was not polite and accepted it directly, chatting about family matters, “Did Miss Song come to the capital to visit relatives or did she want to do business here?”
Since he had asked, Song Wan Yue could not refuse to answer and said, “I originally came to attend my elder brother’s wedding, but since you know what happened at the wedding, I stayed until now.”
The Qingping governor nodded and asked a few more questions about when she would be returning, saying, “I won’t be going to pay my respects to Squire Song in this condition, so if there’s anything you can’t resolve when you return to Qingping County, send someone to send me a letter.”
Song Wangyue thanked and stood up, originally wanting to say goodbye ……
The Qingping governor also followed and stood up, “Let’s go, I’ll also go and buy some things for my family, then I’ll pay a visit to a few colleagues in the afternoon and go back tomorrow.”
The two walked out together, and just as they left the doorway, the door of the elegant room opposite was also opened and a man walked out.
The Qingping governor subconsciously glanced up and froze.
Song Wangyue noticed the difference in him and followed suit.
“Er ……”
The man glanced at the Qingping governor, who immediately swallowed the words that followed and lowered his head.
Song Wan Yue narrowed her eyes, intuiting that the man’s identity was not simple, lifting her foot just to leave, the man had already turned around and returned to the elegant room, Qing Ping Zhi Fu saw it out of the corner of her eye, quietly tugged on Song Wan Yue’s sleeve despite her status, and told her in an extremely low voice, “Second prince.”
The man’s majestic voice had already sounded inside the elegant room, “Come in.”
Song Wan Yue looked at the guards who were blocking her without a trace, lowered her eyes, and followed Qing Ping Zhi Fu into the elegant room.
The door had just closed when the Qingping governor saluted with trepidation and anxiety.
Song Wan Yue also followed him with a curtsy.
The Second Prince’s eyes narrowed as he asked the Qingping Governor, “Why are you here?”
The second prince looked over and saw that there was no fear in her clear eyes and smiled, “I have long heard of Miss Song’s reputation, but I thought they were exaggerating, but today I see that the rumours are true.
If it were an ordinary young girl, she would have been scared silly when she heard that she was the Second Prince.
Song Wangyue smiled faintly, “You flatter me, I’m just a little more daring than the average person, after all, I have so much to fall back on.”
