The next day at lunchtime, Xiao Yun, who was only a servant of Mu Lihua, rushed to get the last steamed bun before another maid. She glared at the maid proudly, found a seat nearby, and began to enjoy the not-so-delicious lunch.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew past Xiao Yun. She looked up and saw Qing Shu standing opposite Uncle Liu. Uncle Liu took out an old lunch box from under the table and handed it to her. Then she took it and left.
After she left, Xiaoyun couldn't help but ask Uncle Liu curiously,""What did Qing Shu take just now?”
Uncle Liu wiped his hands and replied with a smile,"It's lunch for today. A little girl in her room was seriously injured and it's not convenient for her to come over to eat, so she brought it over.”
" Oh..." Xiaoyun replied simply, but she was a little dissatisfied in her heart. She didn't know what delicious food was in the lunch box. It was so mysterious.
After tidying up, Uncle Liu went into the inner room. After a while, the smell of medicine came out. At first, it was just one smell, but then another smell came out. The two smells mixed together, and it was a little bitter and unpleasant. Xiaoyun was not used to this smell. She did not know the taste of food, but she was very hungry. When she finished eating, everyone else had left. She put down the bowl in her hand and walked into the inner room curiously. She wanted to see what Uncle Liu was cooking inside. Why was it so unpleasant?
"Uncle Liu, what are you doing?" Opening the curtains, Xiaoyun saw Uncle Liu sitting on a small bench, fanning two small frying pans. The two small frying pans were steaming and rising into the air. This was how the unpleasant smell came from.
"Oh, this is the medicine for wangfei and that little girl. I've learned a bit of medicine before, so I'll help them brew it while I'm at it.”Uncle Liu replied as he fanned the fire, making it burn faster.
" Is that so…" Yun 'er suddenly understood. Looking at the small frying pan that was emitting steam, a strange light flashed across her eyes. She stood where she was, deep in thought.
"Is Uncle Liu done?" At this moment, Xiao Xiang 'er opened the curtains and walked in.
" Not yet, you have to wait…" Uncle Liu replied while fanning himself.
" Okay, alright then. I'll wait…" Little Xiang 'Er glanced at Xiaoyun beside her, turned around, and replied with a smile.
The two of them were not familiar with each other, and because of their relationship with their master, the two of them did not greet each other and stood where they were.
After a short while, Little Xiang 'er's stomach started growling. She asked Uncle Liu, who was still slapping her, in embarrassment,""Uncle, do you still have food here? "I haven't eaten breakfast or lunch. I'm starving…" She spoke in a coquettish voice, causing Xiaoyun to look at her strangely.
" Oh…No more. Oh, there's also some porridge…" Originally, the last steamed bun for lunch was taken away by Xiao Yun. However, Uncle Liu was tempted by Xiao Xiang 'er's coquettish voice. He suddenly remembered the food that he had secretly stored. Therefore, he ignored Xiao Yun's presence and stood up from the small stool and said with a smile.
"Mhm, Uncle Liu, you're so nice. Where are you? I'm starving."
" Let's go, follow me…" Uncle Liu put down the fan in his hand and walked out before Little Xiang 'er.
Lil Xiang 'Er, who had fallen behind, lifted the curtain and turned around quietly. When she saw Xiaoyun staring at the frying pan thoughtfully, she revealed a strange smile, which was particularly scary.
There was a small piece of paper in front of the slightly pale frying pan. On it was written " Ruan ", which represented Consort Ruan's medicine. She tried her best to suppress her pounding heart. Xiaoyun's breathing quickened as she looked in the direction of the curtains. There was no one there. She quickly walked forward and squatted down. She opened the slightly blue frying pan beside it and took out a bag of powder from her pocket...
Both of their medicines were ready at the same time. It was Yun Chuxi's new maid who came over to bring the medicine. Uncle Liu casually said that they should carry it together since it was on the way. The new maid was a little girl who was easier to talk to. She agreed and walked out with two small frying pans. As she had just arrived, she was not particularly familiar with the environment and location here. She walked and stopped along the way. When she reached Chen Guang's residence, she pushed open the door and saw her lying on the brick bed with her eyes closed. She looked very beautiful. Holding her breath, she was afraid of waking up the sleeping person. Without saying anything, she placed the small white frying pan on the round table and then gently retreated.
When she rushed to Yun Chuxi's room, she happened to wake up. She was half-leaning on the bed and slowly flipping through a book in her hand.
"Wangfei, it's time to drink your medicine." The maid placed the small frying pan on the table and poured a big bowl.
"Mhm, bring it over." Yun Chuxi said casually as she put down the book in her hand.
Holding the big bowl of medicine in her hand steadily, the maid carefully walked over and handed it to Yun Chuxi.
Yun Chuxi held the bowl of medicine with both hands. The black medicine was swaying inside, giving off steam and a pungent smell. Yun Chuxi frowned, and her pale face became paler. She had never liked to drink medicine since she was young, especially this kind of black and smelly medicine. It was killing her. After struggling for a long time, she saw that the medicine was no longer hot, so she took a bite. She had no choice. In order to recuperate as soon as possible, so that she could give birth to a big fat boy for Brother Rong and keep his heart, she went all out...
Who knew that she would find it difficult to swallow after just one sip. She only swallowed it under the enthusiastic gaze of the maid. It was so bitter…She didn't want to drink anymore…
" Hold it steadily. Take this medicine and the medicine in the small frying pan and pour it over…" Yun Chuxi said with a frown as she handed the bowl of medicine to the maid waiting beside her without hesitation.
"Wangfei, isn't this not good?" The maid was a little troubled as she held the medicine.
Sick people tended to be hot-tempered. Yun Chuxi saw that the maid dared to disobey her orders, and her expression immediately changed. She pushed the maid's hand that was holding the bowl of medicine away. Pa…The bowl of medicine fell from her hand and fell to the ground. With a rumble, the specially-made bowl finally stopped. It was intact.
"Am I the master, or are you the master? Whatever I say goes. How dare you disobey my orders? Do you want to die?”Yun Chuxi said coldly and took on the stance of a master. She looked coldly at the maid who was kneeling on the ground and trembling.
" Princess Consort, this servant knows her mistake. I won't dare to do it again…" The maid was so frightened that she begged for mercy.
As if her vanity had been greatly satisfied, Yun Chuxi snorted and said,"Alright, take it down."
" Yes..." The maid stood up from the ground with the bowl and bowed to Yun Chuxi before leaving with the small frying pan.
"Wait, the medicine in the frying pan must be poured in a secret place. Don't let anyone know, do you hear me?”Just as the maid was about to step out, Yun Chuxi said again.
" Yes…" The maid hurriedly replied nervously, but her heart was at a loss. Wasn't this princess called the person with the best temper in the residence? Why did it feel different from what she felt? Back then, when she heard that she had been chosen as the princess consort's maid, she had been happy for quite a while…
The maid was indeed very obedient. She found a very secret place and poured the medicine on the ground before leaving in a hurry. She did not even take a second look.
After the maid left, Qing Shu came out from the corner and stared at the back of the maid as she disappeared into another corner. She recognized that she was the new maid beside "Consort Ruan". Then, she casually looked at the piece of land that she had poured the medicine on. It did not matter. The grass that had been slightly alive on the piece of land that she had poured the medicine on was now on the spot. It was black and steaming, and it was corroding at a speed visible to the naked eye…Qing Shu's heart tightened. She squatted down. Qing Shu stared at it until the grass withered and turned into a black residue. He gasped. This was clearly poison…
With a bag of soil hidden in her arms, Qing Shu calmly walked out of the back door of the residence. She decided to find someone to take a look. If this was poison, the residence would be in chaos…
On the other side, in the study.
"Your Highness, His Majesty wants you to return to the palace as soon as possible.”
A moment passed…
"En, I understand. Go prepare the horses.”
The news of Liu Han's decision to marry Chen Guang somehow reached Mother Liu's ears. It was so fast that she could not help but think that someone was adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes. The mother of the person involved did not think about anything else at all. She aggressively led two maids to the Rong residence. As she was related to the Rong residence, she easily entered the residence and asked around as she walked towards Chen Guang's residence.
"You are Liu Han's mother?" Mu Lihua's body had already recovered. She was leisurely strolling along the path that Mother Liu had to take. Behind her were four servant-maids who bowed their heads and bowed their waists. She was having a good time.
"I am, and you are?" Mother Liu stopped in her tracks and pretended to be calm.
" My name is Mu Liduo. I'm King Rong's concubine…" Mu Lihua smiled and said.
"Is what you said true? Was that maid called Chenguang a wicked woman? And selfish? Bullying the master?" Mother Liu was shocked. After hearing about the woman called Chenguang from Rong Gao's concubines, she had no choice but to believe it. So, this maid had this side to her. At first, she was a little lucky. If Han 'er really liked her, taking her as a concubine would be her bottom line. She did not expect this woman's character to be so bad. What did Han' er see in her? Hmph, you want to enter our Liu Family? There's no way…
" That's right…My princess consort fainted from anger…" The maids beside Mu Lihua were all snobbish. At this moment, in order to win their master's favor, they would say anything.
Mother Liu's expression changed immediately and became darker and darker.
" Don't spout nonsense…" Mu Lihua stared at Mother Liu's face, which was turning darker and darker. She blamed the maid for spouting nonsense, but her face was filled with sorrow.
