“This is too expensive.” Shen Miao declined. This bracelet was made of jade. There were a total of five gold rings interlocked. It was passed down from the late empress dowager, Princess Rong Xin’s mother. Later, when Princess Rong Xin got married, she gave the bracelet to her. In her previous life, Shen Miao saw Princess Rong Xin wearing this bracelet all the time. It was enough to show how precious it was.

“Just take it.” Princess Rong Xin smiled and said, “It’s just a small thing. I think your Shen family has everything you want. Don’t mind this small gift.”

“Of course I wouldn’t mind the bracelet passed down from the empress dowager,” Shen Miao said. “I just think it’s still too valuable…”

Princess Rong Xin was stunned. “How do you know this is the empress dowager’s bracelet?”

Shen Miao paused and thought to herself, “Oh no.” Because she was the head of the palace harem in her previous life, she naturally knew this kind of thing. However, in this life, she was just a young girl, so she wasn’t supposed to know about such a private matter.

Seeing Princess Rong Xin’s suspicious gaze, Shen Miao had an idea and said with a smile. “I once heard Young Marquis Xie mention it. Young Marquis Xie is very close to you and often talks about you.”

“I see.” Princess Rong Xin’s expression immediately softened. She said with relief, “I’ve treated him as my child all these years. It’s good to know that he often talks about me.” At this point, she looked at Shen Miao differently. “However, I didn’t expect that he actually told you about this…”

Shen Miao froze. As expected, Princess Rong Xin continued, “It seems like he really treats you as a ‘friend’.” Princess Rong Xin sighed and said, “Although Jingxing looks a little mischievous, he’s a good boy. All these years, I’ve never seen him so concerned about any girl.” She smiled at Shen Miao and said, “You’re the first.”

Shen Miao thought to herself that Princess Rong Xin was really like Xie Jingxing’s mother. However, Xie Jingxing got close to her not because of her beauty. Shen Miao was afraid that Xie Jingxing was also suspicious of her. It was really a headache for Shen Miao to deal with such a smart person.

At this moment, the maid brought over the ginger tea. As Princess Rong Xin chatted with Shen Miao, she watched her drink the ginger tea. The more she chatted with Shen Miao, the more Princess Rong Xin liked her. She realized that not only did Shen Miao not look like the idiot she was rumored to be, but she was also knowledgeable and magnanimous. Although it was a simple chat, she did not feel bored at all. She did not know how a girl, who had been raised within the confines of a mansion, got such a broad view about so many things. Thinking of how Shen Miao pursued Prince Ding, Princess Rong Xin actually felt a trace of worry. Although Prince Ding was also her nephew, compared to Fu Xiuyi, Princess Rong Xin was naturally more biased towards Xie Jingxing. Princess Rong Xin did not want Xie Jingxing to miss out on such an outstanding girl, so she constantly put in a good word for him during the chat.

Princess Rong Xin was known to be cold and hard to get along with. Today, she actually had the patience to chat with an unfamiliar girl, which shocked the servants in the princess mansion.

However, she did not know that in Shen Miao’s previous life, in order to please Fu Xiuyi’s family members, Shen Miao had gone out of her way to ask around and knew quite a lot about Princess Rong Xin. However, in her previous life, she still didn’t win Princess Yu Rong’s trust. Now, because she had an additional relationship with Xie Jingxing, she was suddenly liked by Princess Rong Xin. If she had known that Princess Rong Xin was so easy to please, she would have tried to get to know Xie Jingxing in her previous life.

After chatting for a long while, Princess Rong Xin stood up reluctantly and said, “It’s getting late. If I don’t send you back, General Shen and Madam Shen will probably go crazy from anxiety. I’ve already gotten someone to prepare a carriage. I’ll send you back now.” With that, she stood up and instructed the servant.
