Chapter 612: Chapter 612: Enthusiasm

The Northern Desert Princess has inherited the temperament of the King of Beimo, being a rather straightforward person.

She mentioned apologizing to Su Jin during the farewell banquet, and she actually did it.

As the dancing girls swirled gracefully, she picked up a wine cup and walked over to Su Jin.

All the officials were watching her, wondering if the Northern Desert Princess was up to something again, seeking conflict with the Princess Consort Zhenbei.

They were expecting some drama, but the outcome was quite disappointing to them.

The Northern Desert Princess raised her cup to Su Jin and apologized, "That day, I was in a hurry to see my father and took you hostage, nearly killing you. I apologize for that."

The Northern Desert Princess’s apology surprised Su Jin a little.

She had even planned to give the Northern Desert Princess a big gift as a farewell gesture.

Now with the princess apologizing, she felt somewhat embarrassed.

Su Jin stood up and said, "Since Princess Jing Shan has apologized sincerely, let’s just let bygones be bygones."

"And if we don’t let it bygone?" Princess Jing Shan whispered.

"Well, nothing much, just the princess might find herself having diarrhea from Daqi all the way back to the Northern Desert," Su Jin whispered back.

Princess Jing Shan, "..."

"Since the poison is so potent, can you spare me some?" Princess Jing Shan asked hopefully.

"..."

"If not, can you sell me the secret formula for the face mask, just two sheets?"

"..."

"If that’s also a no, can you help me save someone?"

"..."

Su Jin’s mouth twitched.

"Who needs saving?" she asked.

"I don’t know who it is. I just picked them up while wandering around," the Northern Desert Princess said, looking a bit melancholy.

"My Northern Desert doctors have been treating them day and night for several days, and they still haven’t woken up."

"The person is still alive, barely. I can’t bring them back to the Northern Desert."

"How about I just leave them with you?"

Su Jin, "..."

This Northern Desert Princess is too enthusiastic.

And such a unique gift!

She really couldn’t handle it.

The two chatted obliviously.

They spoke in particularly low voices, as if whispering secrets.

Do women’s relationships always develop so quickly? 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Just the other day, they met with a whip; now, they’re whispering in each other’s ears.

Has the Princess Consort Zhenbei forgotten about the time when Princess Jing Shan came to snatch her man?

The Emperor and the officials were speechless.

The Emperor coughed a couple of times.

The Northern Desert Princess realized and said to Su Jin, "I’ll take it as your agreement. After the banquet, go with me to the palace."

After speaking, she sat back down.

Su Jin had no way to refuse.

The person the Northern Desert Princess saved is certainly a Daqi person.

There’s no way Su Jin could refuse to save a life when the Northern Desert Princess has been so kind.

With no one provoking Su Jin, Shangguan Feng’er stayed home to recuperate, and Princess Shouning was confined.

The Northern Desert Princess made peace with Su Jin, and no one else dared to provoke her either.

Thus, the banquet passed extraordinarily peacefully.

After the banquet, the Northern Desert Princess stayed with Su Jin, fearing she would bail out.

She had a hard time saving someone, and now was simply leaving them to die wasn’t an option.

What else could Su Jin do?

If she didn’t go, the princess would most likely deliver the person to the Prince Zhenbei Mansion.

Su Jin went with her to the palace.

Xie Jingchen had matters to attend to and didn’t follow. He sent a guard along instead.

When they reached the palace, the Northern Desert Princess led the way.

Upon entering the side hall, Su Jin immediately recognized Mrs. Wang.

The Northern Desert Princess was walking ahead and didn’t see the shock in Su Jin’s eyes.

She pointed to Mrs. Wang and said, "This is the person I picked up."

Su Jin looked at the Northern Desert Princess, "Did you find her at the Great Buddha Temple?"

"How did you know?" the Northern Desert Princess was surprised.

"You know her?"

That’s right.

They must have known each other.

This person was looking for her before passing out.

Su Jin didn’t say anything and sat down to feel Mrs. Wang’s pulse.

It wasn’t too bad.

There was still a pulse.

Su Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, she really owed the Northern Desert Princess a big favor.

"I’ll take this person with me," Su Jin said.

Su Jin asked a maid to find a large box and moved Mrs. Wang into it.

The Northern Desert Princess didn’t stop her.

This was exactly what she hoped to see.

She looked at Su Jin and said, "There were some things I couldn’t say at the banquet."

"I didn’t intentionally try to steal your man."

"Prince Cheng told me to do so."

"He said if I didn’t want to marry for alliance, I should insist on marrying the Young Master of Dongxiang Marquis Mansion or the Heir of Prince Zhenbei."

"Your husband was unlucky to be the first I met; otherwise, I’d have gone after your big brother."

"..."

With the Northern Desert soldiers at the city gates, they had the leverage to make demands.

If the Northern Desert Princess insisted on marrying Xie Jingchen or Su Chong, they might really not have to marry in the end.

Su Jin smiled. "It’s fine. My husband is usually rather unfortunate."

Xingxing, "..."

Northern Desert Princess, "..."

They chatted until they reached the entrance of the palace.

The box was placed on the carriage.

After bidding farewell, Su Jin got into the carriage.

The carriage rolled forward steadily.

Xingxing looked at the large box and said, "I didn’t expect Mrs. Wang to be saved by the Northern Desert Princess."

"That’s Mrs. Wang’s fortune," Su Jin replied.

"Are we going back to the Marquis Mansion?" Xingxing asked.

"No, directly to the Prince Mansion."

Su Jin couldn’t wait to hear from Mrs. Wang why she had grabbed the Old Madam’s neck.

Even though sending her to the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion would ensure her safety.

But with Mrs. Wang staying in the Agarwood Pavilion’s backyard, watched over by the Hidden Guard, there should be no issue.

However, bringing in such a large box into the mansion was really conspicuous.

When entering, they ran into the Second Master; at the second gate, they bumped into the Third Madam.

The Second Master didn’t ask anything, but the Third Madam was curious and asked, "What’s in the box being carried into the mansion?"

"Nothing important," Su Jin answered.

"Really nothing important?" The Third Madam was skeptical.

Su Jin frowned, "Is Third Aunt suspecting me of bringing something untoward into the mansion?"

Indeed, the Third Madam was somewhat suspicious.

But with Su Jin asking like that, she felt a bit guilty.

"I was simply curious about what the Northern Desert Princess gifted you," the Third Madam laughed.

"Let me keep it a mystery for now, but I’ll tell you later."

Su Jin walked on.

The servant carrying the box followed closely.

The more Su Jin concealed, the more curious the Third Madam became, signaling to a maid to keep an eye on her.

Unfortunately, Su Jin headed straight to the backyard of the Agarwood Pavilion.

The backyard of the Agarwood Pavilion wasn’t somewhere just anyone could enter; those who could were trustworthy and wouldn’t spill secrets.

The maid returned without any information.

In the backyard, bamboo house.

Hongxiu was inside the bamboo house, cleaning a table.

Seeing a servant carrying a large box inside, her hand holding the cloth trembled, and the cloth fell to the ground, which she quickly picked up.

Hongxiu is naturally cautious, but the servant really didn’t notice much.

Su Jin rewarded each servant with five pieces of silver.

The servants felt that the effort was worthwhile.

The Princess Consort Zhenbei was certainly generous.

They happily expressed their gratitude and quickly withdrew.

Once the servants were far enough away, Xingxing opened the box.

Seeing Mrs. Wang lying inside, Hongxiu was both shocked and delighted. She thought the box contained medicinal herbs.

"Mrs. Wang is still alive?!" Hongxiu exclaimed with a trembling voice.
