Prodigious Princess Qin Zetian - Chapter 27

Han Yuomei assisted me with bathing Weishen, for that very moment even Han Wan went in a cold shock when we saw the bruises all over Weishen’s little body. Everything was just blue and red. Her white skin was tainted with dark marks. And her nails were even broken. How can someone treat a child like an animal ready to get beaten severely?

“Han Wan go ask someone reliable to investigate the happenings in my uncle’s absence, I want to personally execute the person who did this and tell no one about it.”

“Yes young miss”

We dressed her. Not long enough she fell asleep as I was reading a book to her. I kissed her forehead and arranged the blanket that covers her little body.

“Han Yuomei do not let anyone enter my room as usual and take care of guarding her, I need to go to the next room and check on something”

“Yes, young miss”

“Aware me if she awakens”

Han Yuomei nodded, so I immediately went to Weishen’s room. The servants there were teary eyed.

“What happened here?”

“Young miss… I know I am not in position to speak, but look at how bad the 4th young miss’ clothes are”

I retrieved the clothes from them, it truly is that bad. Everything looks like tattered rags. How can her things become this bad? My uncle served the military for too long and his salary is even comparable to my dad’s salary. It’s truly impossible that he did not give this little girl what she wanted. So where did all of my uncle’s money went?

“Arrange everything in order and nothing should be missing, things no matter how worn out should have a different level of sentimental value so keep everything. Her clothes cannot be used again so fold and pile them neatly on the wardrobe”

I continued checking her things then I saw a precious type of jade. A type of greenish gemstone carved into the finest type of identification jade. I need to investigate about this, for the meantime I will let her use two types of jade on her body, the Qin family’s jade which every member should have and this jade on my hand, it should protect her no matter what.

From her room I also retrieved a type of jade necklace that matches her identity jade. I carried them with me, I will never let her roam around without these items.

“Young miss, the fourth young miss has awoken”

I stood and went back to my room. Then I saw her sitting on my bed while rubbing her eyes gently. A little yawn escaped from her mouth.

“Han Yuomei prepare clothes for her, we are going to a dress shop. I will buy her new dresses”

Han Yuomei handed me a white dress. Then I turned to Weishen and assisted her to change. Yuomei also braided her hair nicely.

“Shen’er listen to big sister, do you see these things?”

The child nodded.

“This jade necklace never ever remove this from your body even when you’re taking a bath. I have to let you wear two jade identities, this one is yours while this one is the Qin’s noble identity jade similar to mine and the rest of the members of the family. You will carry these three items always, these identity jade carvings will protect you. Do you understand?”

“Yes, big sister”

Then I hugged the girl.
