FORGOTTEN LEGEND OF THE BLOODIED FLOWER

Chapter 234 - Thief Shout Thief



First Miss Nan?

Everyone was confused as Nan Hua had extremely low profile in their circle. Added with the fact that she was only going to turn 10 years old, almost no one could remember that there was someone named Nan Hua amongst them.

Princess Yue arched her eyebrows. "Why would First Miss Nan ask you to do this? I can't even remember which one she is."

The servant was dumbfounded. Didn't Shangguan Mi told her to use Nan Hua's name because the girl had interacted a lot with Princess Yue and possibly offend the other party? It was a bit hard to think that Nan Hua was instead someone invisible in the eyes of many people.

Sitting on her place, Nan Hua cocked her head to the side. She put on a confused expression as if she couldn't understand what was going on.

However, her eyes glinted in ruthlessness.

Since that Shangguan Mi wanted to pull her into this mud, she had to make sure that the mud was strong enough to pull her down. Naturally, Nan Hua would never let herself be at disadvantage.

"That…" the servant tried to find out an excuse, but her dumbfounded expression was clear for everyone to see. Even though she had learned how to control her emotions, she failed to do so in surprise just now.

Princess Yue waved her hand, knowing full well that it was but an act.

"Are you sure that First Miss Nan is the one who ask you to do it?"

"Yes…" the servant's voice was low but she still admitted to it. Gritting her teeth, she was trying to make sure that she would not make any other mistake.

At the side, Shangguan Mi was already thoroughly annoyed. It seemed that she forgot to calculate the fact that Nan Hua had never even antagonized Princess Yue. While Princess Yue did make things difficult for her, it was simply because of her position.

The matter was small and easily forgotten.

Princess Yue certainly wouldn't remember such a small episode when she was busy with many gathering with other noble ladies. As a result, it was clear that they would not be able to remember that incident either.

"That servant had been standing near First Miss Nan, right?"

A faint voice traveled in the quiet backyard.

Since everyone was watching Princess Yue, every word they spoke could be heard very clearly. Right now, everyone turned their head around, trying to find out who was the one speaking. The voice sounded floating as if it was spoken by someone far yet near.

'Ventriloquism.'

Nan Hua was not looking in Shangguan Mi's direction, but she could guess that it was her who did it. After all, to create an illusion that her voice was spoken from a certain distance away was not easy. It required a lot of practice.

Not to mention, Shangguan Mi didn't even open her mouth at all yet her voice could be heard.

What an interesting skill to have.

'Huh?'

Shangguan Mi was absolutely sure that she didn't reveal any weakness but the feeling of being watched suddenly appeared. She has keen senses due to living under Shangguan Die's shadows. Right now, she clearly sensed that someone was watching her.

She raised her head and swept the hall before her eyes landed on Empress Dowager Yan. Empress Dowager Yan was sitting leisurely on her chair with her chin propped, but her clear eyes were staring straight at Shangguan Mi.

There was amusement within her eyes as if she was watching a performance.

The sight caused Shangguan Mi's heart to sank a bit. However, she calmed herself as she turned her head away. She could easily get away even if Empress Dowager Yan tried to put the blame on her regarding the voice just now. But did Empress Dowager Yan saw it when she instructed the servants?

She had been doing everything very carefully…

"Oh? Really?" Princess Yue then swept around the hall carefully, trying to find Nan Hua. She furrowed her eyebrows because she couldn't even remember Nan Hua's appearance after not seeing the other party for a long time.

Besides, the other party really didn't leave any impression to her.

A noble lady saw that Princess Yue was troubled and waved her hand. "Your Highness, First Miss Nan is sitting here."

*cough*

Princess Yue nodded with a poker face. She could see Nan Hua had turned her body around and sat calmly. Her young face told her that someone like her shouldn't have any bad blood with her.

Why did the servant wanted to frame this young miss?

"First Miss Nan, do you mind if I ask the servants to check on you?"

Nan Hua looked at the servant who stood nearby. She understood that if she disagreed, the other party would rather be suspicious and tried to press on the matter. Even though it was annoying, Nan Hua simply nodded her head.

"Please excuse me, First Miss Nan." Princess Yue signaled the servant nearby to do the check.

Nan Hua looked at the servant and her eyebrows arched slightly. She had to admit that even though Shangguan Mi was staying low, she sure had a lot of money to spend. The servants were all working under her order around here.

Or was it because Shangguan Mi had something else she used as her card?

In any case, Nan Hua didn't have any plan to make it easy for her.

As the servant approached her, Nan Hua's legs moved to the front slightly, stepping on her toes. This prevented the servant from getting close to Nan Hua and as her hand was close to her, Nan Hua moved to the side ever so slightly and kicked the other party slightly at the leg.

"Ah!"

The servant was unprepared. Her body tilted sideways and she fell down on the table, alarming the other young ladies there.

Bang!

"Kyaa!"

"Wha!"

Nan Hua, of course, acted appropriately and evaded to the side.. Her expression looked confused and aggrieved.
