Chapter 208: Reputation Ruined
Ye Qing was completely baffled, his face full of confusion.
"Fine, I won't ask then." Ye Qing waved his hand and didn't say anything more.
Wanxia pursed her lips slightly, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.
"How long have you been waiting for me here?" Wanxia turned her head and asked cautiously.
Seeing this, Ye Qing simply shook his head and said nonchalantly, "It hasn't been long. Let's go back. The prince is still waiting."
Wanxia's heart skipped a beat, and a bright color appeared on her face.
The two quickly returned to the mansion, and Wanxia told Lin Rusi about what she had done that night with a hint of pride.
Lin Rusi listened quietly, occasionally smiling and agreeing, a hint of a smile in her eyes.
Those two guys deserve to be taught a lesson.
Especially after doing something like that.
The next day, as expected, rumors circulated in the capital that the Prince of Lin'an's residence had suddenly summoned many doctors.
Upon hearing that the princess was ill, Wanqi rushed over excitedly, her pretty face filled with inexplicable excitement.
"Young lady, you don't know, everyone's saying that Princess Lin'an has contracted some strange illness, and no matter how many doctors they've consulted, they can't cure her!"
Wanxia felt a surge of pride at this, attributing it to the potency of her poison, and a hint of smugness appeared on her face.
"That's because my poison is so potent! Who told those two to harm the girl like that!" Wanxia frowned unhappily.
Lin Rusi smiled gently and said in a low voice, "It's nothing, it's all over now that I've vented."
She waved her hand dismissively.
"Miss, why do you seem so indifferent?" Wanqi pouted, somewhat puzzled.
Lin Rusi poked Wanxia's head: "What are you thinking? If you really don't care, how could I let you poison me?"
She holds grudges, but she doesn't want to cause trouble for others.
However, the news about Princess Lin'an made Lin Rusi feel much more at ease.
"That's true, young lady, don't worry, I didn't let any of them go!"
……
Not only the Prince of Lin'an's Mansion, but also the Duke of Jin's Mansion was in turmoil at this time.
The screams coming from Sun Jiayi's room could be heard throughout the entire Duke of Jin's mansion.
Sun Jiayi stared at her face in disbelief, her expression almost frantic.
How could she suddenly develop so many pimples overnight? Half of her face looked like it was disfigured.
In this state, there's no way I can go out and see anyone.
Sun Jiayi's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Outside the door, the Duchess of Jin heard the noise and rushed over.
"Jiayi, what's wrong?" The Duchess of Jin screamed when she saw his face, almost startled.
The Duchess of Jin instinctively stepped back, her eyes filled with worry.
"Yiyi, what happened to your face?!" The lady hurriedly stepped forward to examine her, knowing that a young woman's face was the most important thing.
"I don't know either, Mom. I woke up like this!" Sun Jiayi said, her voice trembling with tears, clearly also completely unaware of the situation.
Upon seeing this, the Duchess of Jin immediately shouted, "Quick! Go and fetch a doctor!"
Sun Jiayi's eyes were red as she looked at the doctors and servants coming and going, her face burning hot.
Okay, now everyone knows they're disfigured.
"Doctor, what's wrong with my Yi Yi?!" The Duchess of Jin had consulted countless doctors.
The doctor in front of them was already the most renowned doctor in the city, but he shook his head, his face full of helplessness.
"Madam, I cannot cure this. It seems the young lady's face has come into contact with something unclean." The doctor left with those words in a hurry.
The people of the Duke of Jin's mansion wept bitterly and shouted desperately, "Quickly, fetch the imperial physician!"
Sun Jiayi's eyes were filled with resentment. She kept raising her hands, trying to touch the pimples on her face, but as soon as she touched them, she quickly pulled them back.
……
However, compared to Luo Lan, Sun Jiayi was still considered lucky at this time.
At this moment, Luo Lan slowly awoke.
She opened her eyes in a daze and found something hard and warm next to her.
Luo Lan touched it twice, and the next moment, her eyes widened.
She immediately sat up in bed, biting her lower lip tightly, not daring to make a sound.
She looked around at the scene before her and guessed what had happened last night. Her face turned deathly pale.
Luo Lan forced herself to remain calm, reassuring herself, "It's okay, it's okay. As long as I secretly deal with this man, no one will find out."
After taking a deep breath, Luo Lan secretly put on her clothes and was about to get up and sneak out when...
The maid knocked on the door and then pushed it open and came in.
The two women's eyes met, and the maid immediately let out a scream. In the next instant, everyone in the mansion gathered around.
"Chunhua! What are you yelling about?! Close the door right now!"
Luo Lan panicked, sweat beading on her forehead. Chunhua realized what was happening and quickly came over to close the door.
However, the door hadn't been closed yet.
People had already gathered around, and even Luo Lan saw it, his expression changing drastically.
"Get away! Get away now! Don't look!"
The man on the bed also woke up at this moment, and everyone looked closely.
"Isn't this the gatekeeper of the manor?"
The discussion was very loud, and Luo Lan could hear it clearly. She immediately covered herself with the blanket.
At this moment, Luo's father rushed over.
He stared wide-eyed at Luo Lan, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Instantly, his face turned bright red, and he slapped Luo Lan across the face.
"Shameless! Get dressed and come down here right now!" Luo's father slapped Luo Lan so hard that her head was buzzing.
The guard was naked and kneeling on the ground.
Seeing this, Luo Lan wrapped herself in the blanket, trembling and not daring to speak.
Mr. Luo snorted coldly, his face immediately darkening.
The two men had dark faces, and Luo Lan didn't dare to say a word, only kneeling on the ground.
Before Luo's father could do anything, Luo Lan closed her eyes and fainted.
Rumors spread throughout the mansion, and no amount of intervention could stop them.
In no time, news spread among the three prominent daughters of officials in the capital.
Throughout the capital, even the vegetable vendors had to say something about it.
"Hey, did you know? I heard that the Princess of Lin'an and the young lady from the Duke of Jin's mansion have both contracted a serious illness."
The woman beside her scoffed, "That's nothing. Do you know about the young lady of the Luo family? I heard she had an affair with her own guard and was caught in the act by her maid. Tell me, who would want her after that?"
The onlookers smacked their lips in disapproval.
They really didn't know such details. If that's the case, these three young ladies will be "famous far and wide" in the capital from now on.
After all, she was a daughter of an official, so they didn't dare say anything. It would just become a topic of conversation for everyone later.
However, now everyone in the capital, from top to bottom, knew about it, and the Duke of Jin was so angry that his beard almost twisted.
But the Luo family must have been the most furious.
Lin Rusi had just finished browsing around the newly opened shop when she overheard the proprietress and the woman who bought the fabric talking about the same thing.
"Madam, have you heard about what happened between those two young ladies and Princess Lin'an?"
The proprietress, who already seemed to understand, said knowingly, "That's right. Who did they offend? Three people got into trouble overnight. There's probably more to this than meets the eye."
