Princess Changxing was in a violent rage due to Song Yixiao. Upon hearing the voice, she shouted without thinking much, “Who dares to make a noise before me?”
In answer to her was a shout of the maid on watch and then the door of the drawing room was suddenly kicked open. Jian Xubai, well dressed with jade ornament on his head, asked in an indifferent voice, “Changxing, what are you doing?”
“Brother Xubai...” Princess Changxing didn’t expect to see him. Greatly surprised, she asked subconsciously, “Why are you in the inner yard?”
By reason although Jian Xubai attended the feast today, he should be having the dinner in the front hall!
She and Song Yixiao both thought of Wei Mengying almost at the same time. The former one was extremely angry. She knew that such a greedy woman desiring wealth and honor greatly like Wei Mengying must be cunny! However, Wei Mengying was a princess consort and her senior too. Even as a princess, Changxi
Ms. Zhao said with a bitter smile, “Qiaoqin arrived and left in a hurry, who said she must go back and report on completion of her task to Her Highness the Princess Consort. She told me nothing but that these two kinds of medicine ought to be used!”Song Yixiao didn’t expect to dispel her doubt immediately so she was just checking. Then she heard Ms. Zhao’s reply and said in a comforting tone, “Since the medicine is ready, this shouldn’t be the first time that he has been like this. Supposedly, he will get better after taking the medicine. We may as well rest assured.”“Hopefully, it is not a chronic illness!” Ms. Zhao, not as optimistic as her, glanced at Jian Xubai who looked so pale, and couldn’t help sighing and praying heartily, “Duke Jian is only 17 years old!”If his illness left a lingering effect at such a young age, who knew how many more years he could live? By then it might be a relief for him to die, but what could Miss Song do the
“How about lying in a corner and telling others that you are drunk?” Song Yixiao stayed silent for a while and then proposed, “And because you sleep there for a while, you have your clothes crumpled?”Jian Xubai stared at her as if looking at an idiot, “I am poisoned. I cannot be more than careful about my health. How can I get drunk randomly? Just now, it was because I didn’t take Brother Zifu’s toast that he poured the wine on me just now!”Song Yixiao felt depressed, “Or I can send someone to your mansion to get another suit of clothes for you?”“Then let servants gossip about me and cause a big scandal?” Jian Xubai snorted.Song Yixiao rebuked in surprise, “Can’t you have the servants in your mansion under control?”In her eyes, Jian Xubai shouldn’t be so useless!“Didn’t you hear what I said to Changxing just now?” Jian Xubai put on the crumpled inner garment reluctantly with a gloomy face, “I lived i
Song Yixiao didn’t go back to the Hanxia Villa with complex feelings until dusk.Now Wei Chan was advised by Ms. Zhao to have supper, took a shower and returned to her room.“Today she has been occupied for the whole day. No need to disturb her!” Song Yixiao heard the report and said, “Let my cousin rest well!”She had had supper in Wei Mengying’s place. Now that she was back to her own place, she sat for a while and then was going to have a bath.Ms. Zhao sent Jinxun away and followed Song Yixiao into the room for offering service. When Song Yixiao took off her upper garment, her thickly wrapped left arm was exposed. Upon seeing that, Ms. Zhao couldn’t help asking in shock, “Your Ladyship, were you troubled after returning to the feast?”“No.” Song Yixiao heaved a sigh and hinted at her to unwrap the bandage, saying in a low voice, “Mother asked me about the ins and outs of the matter. Besides, she has heard that Her
Jian Xubai didn’t know that his fiancée was so angry that she even started to think about killing him. After helping Song Yixiao dry up her hair, he threw the towel on the ottoman and said smilingly, “A fair transaction.”He lied on bed confidently and was going to sleep. Yet, he was still grasping her tightly. Song Yixiao couldn’t let go of him after trying for a few times, saying angrily, “Release my hands!”When she went upstairs, she was only wearing underclothes and a rope. After the previous episode, her rope was left somewhere and the fastening of the underclothes was also a bit loose.Even though it was dark in the bed net, he couldn’t see her clearly. However, after pulling and pushing for a long time, inevitably, he touched quite some parts of her body. Now that Jian Xubai grabbed her wrists and pressed her on the bed, he put his arms around her waist in bed. Basically, he was cuddling her at the moment!Song Yixiao could
Song Yixiao didn’t want to mess with the problem in Prince of Hengshan’s mansion, but as a saying went, if you played with fire, you got burned. She was not the one who played with fire only but the one who grew up with the fire and still hadn’t stopped!Therefore, having sensed Wei Mengying’s intention, Song Yixiao felt worried about Lu Guanlun and meanwhile couldn’t do anything but to look after Lu Guanyun well first.Probably because Wei Mengying had talked well to Lu Guanyun before, after she left, he clung to Song Yixiao then.He insisted on her feeding him, pouring water for him, playing with him and even sleeping with him at night. Song Yixiao had no other choice but to yield to his request.She was in “recuperation” so she had nothing to do. It was okay that her brother clung to her tightly.As such, she had no time to inquire about Wei Chan.When Song Yixiao just took off her coat for a bath the n
Empress Su felt depressed and yet still said with a big smile, “You’ve just voiced the mind of parents! If the child is too insensible, her parents have to worry much about her! However, if the child is too sensible, her parents will also feel sorry for her! Anyway, since the child was born, parents have been always concerned about her!”“Since the parents are concerned about her, they must guide her properly.” The Grand Princess, not interested in her euphemistic complaint, said casually, “After all, it is better to make others feel sorry for her than let others hate her, right?”In front of the Empress Dowager, the Grand Princess did utter harsh words.No matter how socially active Empress Su, she couldn’t help feeling embarrassed. After an instant, she finally said with a forced smile, “Can’t agree with you more.”She hinted that she would educate Princess Changxing in the future. The Empress tried to ease the situation for hers
But Cui Jianlian shook her head and said, “Your Highness, he left hurriedly. I was afraid to delay the treatment of Young Master Zhuo. So I didn’t ask him closely.”At this time, both the Empress Dowager and Jinguo Grand Princess couldn’t wait to let servant come.The Empress Dowager sent people to the Imperial Academy of Medicine to ask the situation. But the Grand Princess couldn’t wait. She stood up directly and wanted to go there. “Doctor Han is taking care of Roumei. If Ping’an only has the indisposition, why do they call another doctor? Mother, I won’t feel relieved before I see him by myself!”The Empress Dowager thought so, too. She immediately nodded, “Send me information in time. Don’t let me worry!”Pei Yourui came with Jinguo Grand Princess. At present, Jinguo Grand Princess left before the feast was over because she worried about her grandson. Pei Yourui couldn’t stay here as if nothing happened. So she also offered to
Although Song Yixiao didn’t know her mother’s plan, she was an unmarried girl and couldn’t do whatever she wanted to do. She had to be obedient after Wei Mengying claimed her attitude.Then she thought, “I should find an opportunity to see Xue’e and let her send a message to Sister Muting!”If there was no reply after Yuan Xue’e sending the message, “When I get on well with Sikong Yiluo and Xie Yiren, I can ask them to help me.”But all her plans failed. No matter who she sent or what excuses she made, Jiang Muting’s maid always replied, “My young lady is so weak recently that she can’t see guests or think too much! Her parents worry about her. For my young lady’s health, they don’t let anyone bother her before she feels better. Well...”All people sent by Song Yixiao were refused by Jiang Muting.But Song Yixiao didn’t give up and thought of Wei Yinlian who had been Jiang Muting’s friend since she was a kid. How could
