Chapter 892: Chapter 892 Ministerial Mansion

Situtu Qinger stood up and followed the guard with exaggerated, swaying steps, heading towards the fourth prince’s mansion.

Her trailing gown, once pristine, was now soiled with stains.

The wide hem was embroidered with pink patterns, and wound around her arm was a length of light purple yarn luo silk. Her slender waist, hardly an armful, was cinched with a purple belt inlaid with jade.

Her beautiful hairbun, once neat, was now messily skewed to one side, making her look utterly disheveled. However, due to the veil covering her face and her graceful figure, she still emitted an air of pitiful charm.

Qinger’s swaying gait drew the Fourth Prince’s gaze.

Several ladies of distinguished families watched with eyes ablaze with jealousy; even in such a state, she did not walk properly and seemed intent on seducing the Fourth Prince.

Their hearts seethed with indignation.

Just as Situtu Qinger was about to pass by, one bold and straightforward young lady from a noble family suddenly snatched the veil off her face.

The sight that met their eyes was the normally stunning Second Miss Situ, now with her face covered in dried blood and smudged black eyeshadow streaming down her cheeks. The bright, captivating eyes of ordinary days were now like those of a panda, matted with bloodstained makeup. The scene was indescribable and utterly pitiable.

When a gust of wind brushed Situtu Qinger’s face, she felt a sudden chill. Before she could react, she heard a burst of laughter around her. Instinctively touching her face, she belatedly realized her veil had been torn off.

Instantly, she let out a piercing scream, covered her face with her hands, and ran towards the fourth prince’s mansion...

The ladies standing at the door watched her retreating figure, laughing uncontrollably.

She asked for it, didn’t she? Now she’s been humiliated.

"Hee hee hee..." Some stifled their giggles with handkerchiefs, trying to maintain poise by laughing without showing teeth. Therefore, every lady carried a handkerchief, which served many purposes: it was an accessory and concealed their mouths when they laughed.

"Who would have thought that the usually stunning Second Miss Situ could fall into such a state? If it weren’t for hearing her voice just now, I wouldn’t have recognized her given her current appearance," remarked someone, taking pleasure in her misfortune.

Seeing Situtu Qinger’s disarray, even the Fourth Prince was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.

The audacious Miss of the Wealthy Family who had pulled off Qinger’s veil was the Eldest Legitimate Daughter of the Ministerial Mansion, who had long been at odds with Situtu Qinger. Whenever they met, they would compete fiercely.

Now that there was an opportunity to embarrass Situtu Qinger, it was not surprising that she made such a move.

The Chief of Staff’s household was also within the sphere of influence that the Fourth Prince sought to court, so naturally, he would not reprimand her.

"Miss Qian, such pranks should not be repeated in the future," the Fourth Prince said with gentle elegance, his face adorned with a faint smile.

With that smile, the Fourth Prince looked matchlessly distinguished, nearly captivating Miss Qian’s soul. She gazed at the Prince, dumbstruck, and stuttered, "Servant... servant... It wasn’t intentional, my hand just somehow, ripped off the Second Miss’s veil."

"Just be more careful next time," the Prince said, just to show fairness with a casual remark.

The Rising Sun gradually ascended in the east, and all the young lords and ladies invited by the Fourth Prince had arrived. Everyone gathered together, ready to set out for the hunting grounds.
