500 I’ll Help You (1)
The mansion where the people of the State of Qin lived had probably been renovated, and the layout was a little different from the ones in Ming Qi. As soon as Shen Miao entered, she realized that it was in the same style as the palace in the State of Qin.
The people of the State of Qin liked shiny and golden things, just like Shen Miao in the past. They probably felt that gold and silver could show off the wealth of their country. When Shen Miao first went to the State of Qin, she was very envious when she saw that the palace was so exquisitely renovated. Now that she thought about it, the preferences of the royal family of the State of Qin were really vulgar. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎
After being brought to the garden by the maid, Shen Miao finally saw Princess Ming An.
Princess Ming An sat at a small stone table in the garden. On the stone table was a thin handkerchief embroidered with butterflies. On it were a few plates of exquisite snacks and a pot of tea. Next to the table was a small pond. At this time of the year, the water in the pond had not frozen yet. There were many red carps shaking their heads and tails in the pond. A few maids sat at the side and fed the fish in small bowls.
Shen Miao stood in front of Princess Ming An and bowed to her.
Princess Ming An turned around.
Among the three countries, Ming Qi, the Daliang Dynasty, and the State of Qin, the Daliang Dynasty was undoubtedly the most powerful. In comparison, Ming Qi and the State of Qin were much inferior. However, compared to the State of Qin, the State of Qin was better because the State of Qin had stronger troops.
Perhaps because of this, the royal family of Ming Qi wanted to take back the military power so much. However, over the years, it had been very difficult for Ming Qi to produce outstanding generals to replace Shen Xin and Xie Ding. Therefore, Emperor Wen Hui called Shen Xin back in a hurry.
The State of Qin also knew that they could not compare to the Daliang Dynasty, but they were above Ming Qi. In front of the people of Ming Qi, the people of the State of Qin always felt a sense of superiority. This attitude was very upsetting. In Shen Miao’s previous life, when she went to the State of Qin, it seemed that even the palace maids looked down on her from the bottom of their hearts. The royal family of the State of Qin did even worse. It was as if they could trample Shen Miao’s dignity under their feet.
At this moment, when she saw Princess Ming An, some memories from her previous life flooded her mind.
“I invited you here today. I thought you wouldn’t dare to come, but I didn’t expect you to come alone. You’re quite bold.” Princess Ming An glanced at Shen Miao, and her gaze suddenly darkened. Today, she was wearing a red dress with gold gilt and accessorized with the best-looking hairpin from the State of Qin. However, when she saw Shen Miao wearing a simple coat and not wearing any makeup, she paled in comparison.
“Princess, you must be joking.” Shen Miao’s expression did not change. “Princess is a guest of Ming Qi. Since I am lucky enough to be invited, how can I refuse to come?”
Jingzhe and Gu Yu stood behind Shen Miao. Mo Qing was stopped by the guards at the door, but Shen Miao did not say anything. Shen Miao knew Princess Ming An’s temper very well. Since Princess Ming An invited her here, it was impossible for her to do anything really dangerous to her. Princess Ming An would at most do something to make Shen Miao’s time here humiliating. When Shen Miao came, she was already prepared.
