Meng Youning took the paper in front of her and looked at it carefully.
Then, she said slowly: "You know me quite well."
After saying this, Meng Youning turned slightly to the side and glanced at Muxiang beside her nonchalantly, "Muxiang, is she right?"
Mu Xiang lowered her head and said respectfully, "In my opinion, she is only half right."
Meng Youning slowly placed the paper in her hand on the table, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said in a gentle tone, "Oh? Then tell me, which one of her points is right?"
Mu Xiang raised her head slightly and said softly, "She said that the Crown Prince's Consort is not a cruel person."
She paused for a moment, then continued, "The Crown Prince's Consort is only ruthless when it comes to her own people, but it's not necessarily the same when it comes to others."
As she spoke, a faint smile slowly appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Cheng Zhaodi suddenly raised her eyes and subconsciously glanced at Muxiang, only to see that the other person looked serious.
She couldn't help but look at Meng Youning, her heart in her throat.
Unexpectedly, Meng Youning just chuckled and said, "Your summary is quite pertinent."
Since arriving here, Meng Youning only allowed Muxiang to get close to her.
But it is still inconvenient to do things alone.
Cheng Zhaodi is more thoughtful and patient, so she is a good candidate.
Thinking of this, she lowered her eyes to look at Cheng Zhaodi below, "Do you know why I asked you to stay?"
Cheng Zhaodi slowly raised her head, shook her head slightly, and said hesitantly, "I don't know."
Meng Youning leaned forward slightly and said softly, "There's no rush. You'll find out slowly. But let me be frank. I didn't save you for nothing. I'll only give you a month. If you still can't adapt to life in the mansion after a month, I'll still let you leave."
She looked at Cheng Zhaodi steadily and said word by word, "No matter what you say, I won't let you stay. After all, we won't let you stay here for free. Do you understand?"
Cheng Zhaodi's eyes flashed with a strange light, and she nodded heavily, "I understand. I will adapt as soon as possible and will never give you the chance to drive me out."
Meng Youning glanced at her nonchalantly, then slowly stood up, her gaze finally landing on Cheng Zhaodi's exposed wrist. "Then I hope you can keep your word."
The next moment, she casually took out a small white porcelain bottle from her sleeve, bent down slightly, and threw it at Cheng Zhaodi's feet.
Cheng Zhaodi: "What is this?"
Meng Youning slowly sat back down, smoothed his sleeves, and looked lazy. "Since you've already entered Hibiscus Garden, you shouldn't be injured. Otherwise, if others see you, they might think I've treated you harshly."
Cheng Zhaodi lowered her eyelids slightly, looking submissive.
Although she married Xiang Hongxuan as his legal wife, everyone in the mansion knew her identity. In addition, Xiang Hongxuan's attitude towards her made it possible for anyone in the Xiang family to bully her.
It's funny to say, even if she was just a maid beside Meng Youning, it would be better than being the mistress of the Xiang family.
At least Meng Youning wouldn't beat or scold her from time to time.
Thinking of this, Cheng Zhaodi became more determined.
Meng Youning glanced at Cheng Zhaodi slowly, "But since you are mine now, you must not call me by your previous name anymore."
She pondered for a moment, then continued, "From now on, you will be called Muye."
Cheng Zhaodi lowered her head and murmured softly, "Muye, Muye..."
She suddenly looked up, her eyes full of stars, "Everything is subject to Miss Meng's instructions."
Meng Youning lowered her eyes and looked at her, very satisfied.
She rested her right hand on the table, then half-closed her eyes, waved her hand, and said lightly, "Okay, I need to rest now. Muxiang, you can take care of her with the medicinal materials from now on and let her get started as soon as possible. Let's go now."
Mu Xiang hummed softly, her tone respectful, "Yes."
Immediately, Muxiang took Muye out of Yunyan Pavilion quickly.
It was not until they walked out of the gate of Yunyan Pavilion that Konoha breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned sideways and silently glanced at the door of Yunyan Pavilion, with a hint of nervousness between her eyebrows.
Mu Xiang asked without looking away, "Are you afraid of the Crown Prince's Consort?"
Mu Ye uttered an "ah" with an unnatural look on his face. "No, I'm not afraid of the Crown Princess. I'm afraid of myself. I originally begged the Crown Princess out of a heart that had nothing to lose, but I didn't expect that the Crown Princess would be so kind."
As she spoke, she sighed heavily.
Mu Xiang: "Don't be afraid. Since the Crown Princess has chosen you, then you are useful to her. Also, you'd better write down everything she just said word for word."
Muye nodded and listened very carefully.
After one stick of incense.
In the small kitchen.
"Sister Mu, are you here to get medicine for the Crown Princess again?" A little maid greeted Mu Xiang.
Mu Xiang nodded slightly, as a greeting, "You all go down and serve first."
After that, the rest of the people in the room left one by one with their heads lowered.
In the blink of an eye, only Muxiang and Muye were left in the room.
Muxiang carefully opened the medicinal herbs she had just bought.
Then, he took out a square handkerchief from his arms, picked out several pieces of medicinal herbs and placed them neatly in the handkerchief.
She folded them neatly together and quickly put them back in her arms.
Her series of movements were done in one go, and it only took a few blinks of an eye from start to finish.
"What I just put in there was a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and a few pearls. The Crown Prince's Consort usually uses the best medicine, including whole pearls. If you buy new herbs that include pearls, you can wrap them in a handkerchief like I did just now."
"Aside from pearls, you should pick out any valuable medicinal herbs, such as thousand-year-old ginseng and Polygonum multiflorum. Remember, you must be quick and avoid others."
Mu Xiang paused, then continued, "This matter cannot be known to anyone in the palace except you, me, and the Crown Prince's Consort, including the Prince and Princess."
Muye asked seriously, "Even if it's the prince, it's not possible?"
Mu Xiang paused and looked at her sideways, "Yes, even if it's the prince, it won't work. Is that a problem?"
A hint of hesitation crossed Konoha's face, and he shook his head, "No."
Muxiang retracted her gaze. "Every day around noon, someone will buy the herbs and boil them down once. They are usually boiled down the day before, and the Crown Princess can drink it twice at a time. So, there's no need to boil them down right away when the herbs are brought back."
"You can come here every 3:00 PM and be in charge of guarding. There will usually be two people here at this time. When you come, you must find an opportunity to send them away and hide the things."
"At the hour of You, the Crown Princess will take her first dose of medicine."
"There's more." Mu Xiang uttered, as if remembering something, "You don't need to give those things you took out to the Crown Prince's Consort."
